    Hey everyone,

    I'm getting $35 USD I'd like to spend on hosting (over 3 months, so max 11$ a month)

    My needs would be
    - At least 1 domain name included. (more would be better)
    - PHP.
    - MySql Databases with a decent space limit. (limited only by size of hosting if possible)
    - 100 GB Space.
    - 1000 GB Transfer.
    - Fantastico would be nice, but that's not a dealbreaker.
    - CPanel X (this is a dealbreaker)
    - Need to be able to pay by Paypal.

    If anyone knows of such a place please let me know.

    I'm also posting this in case any of you are in the hosting business, because hey I'd rather give my money to one of you guys than some company I don't know. So if you have an offer to make PM me.

    Thanks for reading,
    HH.

    Thanks for the laugh :D

    No really, if those are your accurate requirements I would strongly suggest that you get a VPS or dedicated server.

    The specs you are asking for is pretty much that of a dedicated server which would cost at least 10 times what you want to pay. Of course, you may find some web hosts offering what you want but they would be seriously overselling so don't expect reliability.

    Try GoDaddy.com , they are offering what you want for around what you are asking for.

    Dude, think for a few moments if you will really fill those 100 GB of space and if you're really use 1 TB (1000 GB) of bandwith each month in the first three months..

    Try to find a decent host that offers several account types , go for a lower one and see if you really need more and if so upgrade to a higher one.

    Are you going to share videos? If not then you don't need this much space or bandwith... but if you do need that much get a dedicated server...

    Before you form your needs search the net and get a feeling about the prices and the services
    Asking the moon and the stars with pennies will not make you go far

    To be a newbie is not bad, to be irrational is
