    Hello

    I am looking for a very fast UK shared hosting, or a US hosting which has good speed when accessing from UK

    Space : any
    Bandwith: 10 GB?

    Most importantly, provision for dedicated IP should be available and cheap.

    Please post your offers

    Shared hosting? I'd stay stick with something like Hostgator (not an aff link) - I have no speed issues accessing my sites from the UK and it's pretty cheap (something like 5 quid a month)

    If you're looking for more, I'd suggest a VPS from Xtrahost (not an aff link either) - it's more expensive than shared hosting but you get dedicated system resources and can have cPanel installed on it as well. It's the only host I'm aware of where all packages get access to all 8 cores of the dual CPU host server...

    Well, I am going to be using less than 50 MB space. So my main requirement is speed. hostgator is overpriced in my opinion. Cpanel is sorta must for me!

    Hello,

    You may wish to look for a plan on a UK based server only if you expect most of your visitors to be from the UK otherwise I wouldn't worry about it too much.

    Do you have a budget in mind/any other requirements such as control panel preference?

    EDIT: Sorry I missed you reply about cPanel :D

    http://www.webhosting.uk.com/ (Not affiliate link) I use these guys. Their servers are UK based, they have Cpanel based hosting, plus the speed of their service is quicker than most - and believe me, I use a lot of different hosting accounts. They are fairly cheap too.
