Currently i am hosting this at the same webserver as my blog, it is hosted at b-one, and i am really pleased by this hosting but i dont think that this will a good enough host for my entertainment site.

If anyone know a good host which falls under these requirements please reply to this thread.

Requirements:
Php
MySQL (phpMyAdmin)
FTP
Apache webserver, and the possibility to use mod_rewrite
Alot of webspace
Alot of Bandwitch
A good price

This is what i have quick come with.

Hope you can help me .

 

Don't know if they are accepting new customers yet but www.asmallorange.com is probably one of the best and meets all of those specs.

 

I'd recommend Powweb or UnitedHosting, probably UH more so.

I heard some not-so-good comments about asmallorange a few days ago - apparently their customer support is struggling to cope with demand at the moment.

 

It is

I usually get a response within 10 minutes. I hadn't heard anything like that.

 

Ah sorry, I'm pretty sure thats what I read. I can't find the reference to it though, I was hunting for more blogs for my bookmarks and came across some pretty obscure sites

Listen to yfs1 .. I'm just a vicious gossiper

 

Hehe .

Well i also think he is right, i sent them an email, and got an answer pretty fast .

So i think that asmallorange will be my next hosting company, i just have to wait for them to accept new customers.

 

it would be better to find a local host within your country itself if you focus on the local market

 

Well i am focusing on an international market .

 

Take a look at hostdrive.com

I'll always work on price. Let me know if you would like to give us a try!

 

Sooner or later (and it looks like sooner) you will end up getting a dedicated server in which case you should go with a local company.

 

I am looking at http://www.webhostasp.com for a multiple domains host. Anyone heard of these guys?

 

I agree with dedicated server but why "local company"?

 

I've been using site5.com they have been amazing so far

Other the that i'll recommend midphase.com

 

I use www.theprimehost.com for shared hosting - they're great and affordable.

 

I'm in North Carolina and my hosts are in Houston, Los Angeles and Switzerland ...

I'm reasonably happy with all three (the one in Europe provides specialized services related to my used bookshop).

I use I-Powerweb, see my signature

 

I used to host with Site5, but my site kept going down. I still have a personal relationship with them, but I personally can't recommend them to anyone else. Some people have great experiences while some do not. It's a shoot or miss kind of thing, in my opinion.

I personally recommend DreamHost.com to others though.

 

Midphase is really good, had some trouble getting MySQL to work because you can't use localhost, its remotemysql - other than that supports quick and the sites always up.

 

You can check out our plans at http://www.elite-webs.com/linux_hosting.html or if u want something like 20GB Disk Space and 1TB bandwidth then go for dreamhost.

 

servage.net is damn good.

You get 75 GB space, 1100 gb Bandwidth, 1 free domain, and unlimited domain hosting. There host is prolly the fastest for EU countires Costs only $7.5 bucks a month.

Use the coupon code - everythingfree to get additional 5 GB of space FREE.
