Web hosting renewl is due

eddybrown · 9th December 2008, 15:06

My webhosting account is due to expire soon and I was wondering if anyone knew of any decent companies that may be cheaper?

My current host has gone up £10 a year to £35 for the following:

15gb storage
300gb bandwidth
60mb MySQL database limit (upto 20 databases)
3 domains hosted
30 subdomains

I've looked around and it seems a good deal. My only concern with the host is that I've been noticing lag and some downtime recently since I've been using the hosting more thoroughly although having said that their support has been good.

EDIT: I just thought I should add what I use it for! I have my personal blog & portfolio, a blog for my MG and just recently I've added a forum and dotproject project management software for a team project at uni and I also host my girlfriends portfolio type site.

you get that for three separarate domains and three sets of email access to those domains too?? sounds pretty good, if you are not having to do anything yourself! Who is it with?
My Fasthosts is £50 a year... for one. Want to change, as sites are tiny.

Yes I can host 3 separate domains but that doesn't include the registration of the domain names. I get 100 email accounts which can be from any of the 3 domains. It's with a company called Damum-my, but I think it's a reseller type web host because the parent company is called LiquidNet Ltd.

They go under different names, the actual host is supremecenter...

Ah I found out the resellers account page:

Eddy, if you've not already chosen, I can recommend BlueHost. Based in the US but with good speeds to UK & Europe, good prices and customer service too.

Thanks for the tip Kully however I couldn't find any prices on their site?

It took some digging but I found this in an email: http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/inde...od_id=2&id=162

I'm currently on the 2 year plan (been with them since 2005).

Perhaps not as good value now as then with the dropping £.
