Hi, looking for a few pointers on which Host to use. Anyone had any good/bad experiances etc.
I have been asked to put 2 sites together (Me!! LOL) Nothing too flash, and run a php forum for another site to link to (In at the Deeeep end!)

So any pointers greatly recieved

i-websolutions are ok, not too expensive and have a choice of packages, downside is that they are not always the most communicative people sometimes but they do have a support forum and a lot of members here use them.

Are very good. E-mailed them yesterday (Sunday) with a query & it was sorted out within the hour!

Thanks for the pointers guys n gals. In the blurb, when it says It can only have 1 domain, does that mean only 1 url form that site/host all others would have to be refferals. Like 1 from Low Cost Names and 1 from 123reg for instance

I've had great service from Ecwhost.com

They seem very helpful as well, they even help you out on MSN Messenger, Very helpful when I wanted to pay for the month before I went out spending for christmas, just so I knew it was payed, otherwise I'd lose my hosting

Hi
Ended up with 4uhosting.co.uk. Mainly because you can use both Linux, php and Frontpage extentions. So far they have been very very helpful, considering they are dealing with a noob like me :-)
