Hi,

I currently have sites hosted by 123 reg and uk2net - about three on each - but am looking for a cheaper soloution if possible - as both these cost about £70 for the first year.

Are there any other cheaper hosts, that i can have www.x.com - with space, and maybe stats too (123reg have free stats) - that will have enough reliabilty?

Anyone with experience? - what do you use...?

Thanks!

Harley

p.s - i need to know because i have a number of small (5 page) sites to offer as a service - therefore to keep costs down i need as cheaper a host as possible...

easyspace = £30 1 year + remove the hideous advertising banners upgrade fee + cgi fee + stats fee + made up on the spur of the moment fee etc etc.

easyspace are even worse than UK2 for lowball prices and then adding numerous hidden fees on for facilities that virtually every other ISP includes for free.

I have quite liked DSVR and been using them since 2000.

that VS300 etc has come handy.

Fasthosts [fasthosts.co.uk...] - not too bad. Got a good write up for dealing with SMEs

Also [uk.tophosts.com...] good directory of hosts.

tophosts.com is not an objective forum for the assessment of webhosts. Companies featured on there actually pay to be included and for Fasthosts to be voted the "Best Webhost in the UK" is one of the best attempts at humour that I have so far seen this year. Searching on google for "fasthosts problems" will reveal that the are quite possible the worst hosting ISP in the UK.
