Hi, I actually have a web host myself. Reply here if interested.

[iGoD ReLeNtLeS]

i have my VPS with webfusion and holding 4 websites which use from 1GB - 30+GB/month.

Connection is always stable, only had about 20 mins of netsplits from what i recall a while back when i first got it, only downtime i've seen was because they had a firealarm go off so it shut all the servers off, but was back up 20 mins later.

I know some people dont like them but I've been with 1&1 for years and never had a problem with them tbh

[Smifis]

streamline.net or 123-reg

[benzeman]

NEVER had ANY issues with Martfox. £40 a year for 10GB and 40GB bandwidth. 100% uptime as far as I can tell. Febuarys uptime was 100% except for 1 server (http://www.martfox.com/martfox-server-status.php) which had planned maintainable to make it better anyway - win! Servers based in Kent, Manchester, and USA (can't remember where). And their online support is good - had 60seccond responses at silly times!

If you sign up please usr my ref link! (http://www.martfox.com/customer/aff.php?aff=134) (No - let me use a non-ref link and make you cry! (http://www.martfox.com/))

TSOHost. Without a doubt.

Check out this code:

OCT-FORUM2-SPECIAL

£35 off the £50 pro package.

If it works, that's:

10GB Disk Space, 100 MySQL Databases and 100 emails. Plus, 150GB Transfer. All for £15.

Their service is second to none, had email replies at 12AM and replies in under 60 seconds. 0800 number to the call centre is a bonus, no holding either :)

[njcsolutions]

UK Web Solutions Direct reseller accounts are good, unlimited domains, sql's etc.. check it out!

I Agree. Using this deal code and loving their service!

[heavywater]

Pretty sure the TSOHost code is dead now.

[mtalk]

I have seen no one offering reliable and cheap web hosting in UK link Webhost.uk.net (http://www.webhost.uk.net) after having lot many problem with my old provider I have sticked to this guys as they have been offering me fantastic service for last 1 year at reasonable price ..its worth a look.

[Mulligan]

I've been with DreamHost (http://www.dreamhost.com/) since 2000 - never had any complaints. Built by geeks, for geeks pretty much.

[IanS]

I've been using Nativespace for a few years, never had any issues. I have about 40 sites with them.

[benzeman]

The code is dead unless it has been re-activated

[AaronWHUFC]

Not sure. StuartB333 and Dukey used it a few weeks ago and it worked.

[StuartyB33]

yeh worked fine for me like 3 weeks ago

[RaMarcus]

I've used surpasshosting.com for the last 6 years. I would recommend them, never had any real problems and when ever I've had one they've sorted it out really quick.

They offer US and UK hosting, I have a US account and it's always quick and runs great.

[heavywater]

And it didn't work for me about 10 days ago. :thumb:

[theste]

i have been using godaddy for about a year now and i have had no problems. also i have hear good things about bluehost, i am thinking about because it has video streaming - very useful to have.

[roman]

I use Martfox.com as well for hosting 10 sites. Great customer service. very cost effective and offers everything that is needed for a personal or business website. I am very impressed. Highly recommended. Link to their homepage Web Hosting UK (http://www.martfox.com/)

Another +1 for Tsohost is in order.

Submitted a support ticket today (re. SSH access, nothing bad!) at 11:59 and at 12:01 I received a perfect reply.

Considering persuading my boss to move all our Unix servers from Wiserhosting to Tsohost :)

[FlasH]

+1 TSOhost.

Great hosting company

[sneeker]

I was with !&! as it should be called, it got cancelled when they passed my details onto a debt collection agency.

I was using their system to forward all mail to my gmail, which is fine, but the email address I had 4 years ago when I signed up was dormant, so I never got any emails or letters off them, just a debt collection agency asking for money.

Now hostings with dreamhosting, domains with 123reg and Ive also got an account with feral hosting..

[Bat]

i use these guys aswell now thanks to Aaron and they reply to your emails within minutes very helpful

I use TSOhost as well, fantastic customer support, never had any problems

[power fuse0]

Went with TSO HOST thanks everyone,

[doctorfonz]

we've got a couple of domains and hosting accounts @ 123reg at work, and privately I support a few !&! accounts. Never had problems with either. Don't know if they're the cheapest.
A friend just got .co.uk domain, hosting, POP3 emails and easy web design templates for about £5/£6 a month from !&!

Oh dear. This is not good.
Sorry to hear of your woes - I may well move when renewal comes up... I hate companies that work like this!

[kleonard]

I am with IX webhosting and it is the best web site hosting (http://www.ixwebhosting.com/) for me personally. They are reliable, their server downtime is okay and the prices of the different packages are definitely reasonable. Before I have chosen IX web hosting I used free web hosting and I cannot recommend using free web hosting.
