I only get 8mb of space. So i agreed with my dad that i wanted some space from I-Web and he agreed to pay for it. That way i can either use PHPBB or Invision power board release version 1.3

Re: Webspace - What package?
£10.69à ƒƒÆ’¢â‚¬à ƒƒâ€šÃ‚ = Cost per annum as the box says!
And if you scroll down to find out what the symbol means:
"Annual payments incur savings of 10%"
Good luck KP!

If you want domain hosting you have to pay for a domain too, so it's extra.

Re: Webspace - What package?
The domain name will be whatever you want it to be providing it has not been already taken by someone else an easy way to find out this would be to do a whois on the domain name that you would like to use.

Re: Webspace - What package?
I find www.uk2.net a good site for searching on domain names.
Unlucky wna.co.uk and wnas.co.uk have both gone...
Plenty more including:
wnaforums.co.uk
wnaonline.co.uk
etc
