web hosting

[jonwoad]

Hi guys!

I've been asked to make 2 websites, one for my girlfriends business, and one for her mums.

I would like to host them on the same webspace but with separate domains and to be as cheap as possible. I have looked at 1&1 as they host my email but they dont have domains on their cheapest package.

I'm not bothered about Linux or Windows as its just going to be HTML and pics...

Any ideas?

I use http://www.streamline.net/

They offer a good unlimited hosting package for two years, comes with a free domain.

They allow 15 free sub domains (e.g. www.jon.jonwoad.co.uk (http://www.jon.jonwoad.co.uk)) with there own hosting space. Should be easy enough to set up a domain forwarder from another domain.<o></o>

looks good, might give them a try :)

What sort of bandwidth/space are you thinking of, and are you likely to host more sites in the future?

My plan is 27gb space + 750gb bandwidth/month, unlimited domains/subdomains etc.. pretty much unlimited everything else actually.. Full script support too, and VERY good 24/7 customer service. I think I pay about £8-9/month (but also host a few other domains for some friends and they contribute too :D )

Its only going to be two small websites and I doubt theres going to be a lot of traffic. The main things I need are 2 domain names and cheap as possible :)

£4 month package gives 1.5GB of space and unlimited bandwith. Not sure how many subdomains you get but there can be more than one.

A .co.uk domain is like £6 for 2 years.


I had to ask them about changing my package recently; I had all my questions answered by email in 10 minutes and after one quick phonecall everything was sorted. I was surprised how good their service was, especially as I was trying to downgrade.

I use streamline as well..I'm on the power package
(had to upgrade to it when I found out the home package didn't have mysql so I could put clans forum on it lol)
