    Well for webhosting, I would say that GoDaddy is the cheapest, atleast price per gigabyte, but now seeing Dreamhost having a 200GB offer for 7.95 a month, I'd go with them as GoDaddy's support REALLY sucks. However, if 200GBs is too much, GoDaddy offers 100Gb hosting for 6.29$ per month, then use the promo code cjcdeal50 to get 10$ off and you get a free .info domain, but, as I said, for a person like myself who knows my way around a webserver and doesnt mind problem solving, GoDaddy is fine, but if you're new, and want support, go for some other host.
    Hope that helped,
    I'm new to these forums so sorry if I didn't reply in the right way.

    P.S.
    And if you're looking for a virtual dedicated server, then well, that's something else, I know serverpronto.com offer FULLY dedicated servers for 29.99$ a month, which is A LOT cheaper than a lot of virtual dedicated server plans.

    God damn that was a lot of typing :)

    Have any of you heard of "overselling" ? A host that provides ridiculous amounts of space/BW is certainly going to have a lot of problems. Don't trust me - check another forum for hosting (WHT) :) Anyway good luck having 200 GB of data stored in your account.

    Hmm well from what i have heard.

    DONT go with godaddy, they were hacked earily this year giving you a big idea of safety.

    Also dreamhost is overselling and is slow.

    I recommend GatorHost.com and Stacktech.com ( i believe haha i am currently with them just forgot site. )

    Well I'm in the UK so use dream-hosting.co.uk. They do welcome all international users as well. :) Their prices for hosting and domains are per year.
