Hosting Recommendations

Omg Im so sorry. I was searching the fred miranda forums :eek:(which is on my other tab!) I wondered why I found nothing about web hosting on this forum. (Its been a very LONG day)

Sorry again and thank you guys for all the help :)
 
I used to use A Small Orange, but I got a much better deal from MacHighway.com.
 
I was with startLogic, just switched to Fatcow and saved $40 for the year. They are actually owned by the same company. Fatcow has been more reliable for me than Startlogic was. They have a great deal right now, less than $50 for an entire year, and I got my domain name renewed for free.
 
I currently use Huevia.com. They're cheap and I haven't had any downtime in the three years I've been with them.

You do realise you don't really have unlimited anything don't you?

Unlimited with hosting places is like Olive Garden's unlimited soup, salad, and bread sticks lunch. They of course don't have a never ending supply of those things, but it's enough to get your fill for 99% of people. :)

hmm, must be breakfast time.
 
Unlimited Webspace.... unlimited bandwidth, unlimited mailboxes.

We get about 1,000 unique daily visits from people using "unlimited webspace" as a search phrase - so much so we branded our company to pick up on that.

I actually went to your site and yours is the first web hosting company website I have ever seen that I could not work out how to sign up for an account. I'd get that fixed pronto as you are most likely losing customers.

I really hope you don't require people to have flash to view your site properly.

oh, wow...me too. I would get rid of that random chick too, I have never, ever been fond of images of people on websites like that.

And how DO you sign up?? There are not links at all!

I honestly have no idea where to ask this question but I need to find a site that lets me make a web page that supports php and mysql. All this site would be for is a little tiny database but php and mysql (and 10mb of space) are a requirement. I did a google search and there are a million options and I don't want to end up with a scam site. I don't have to really worry about bandwidth since only 4 people will be accessing it.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a host that can provide this that is legit? I did a forum search but it didn't turn up much info.

www.hostmds.com, but all my new clients get a godaddy account. It's much better.
 
I use one that no one on here has posted about, yrhost. A friend of mine used their hosting for their site, and it worked pretty good. They've gotten better though. The customer support is good, but they're all from India so they speak pretty broken English. Still, I had issues with my domain, and they fixed it for me, and let me know that everything is up and running. I've been VERY satisfied with them, and the price is so low that you can't beat it. :D

anybody know any good Australian hosters??

also- is it ABSOLUTELY necessary to have an ABN to get a domain name?? its really confusing..

Just go to GoDaddy.com and buy your domain name. You should have it in less than 3 minutes if you click through all the crap they put in the way before the checkout.
