StarchyPizza Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Where can I find a good web host besides Apache. I would use Apache but I don't have a server to run it on because all I have is a laptop that is always moving from wifi to wifi and it won't workout with Apache Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit Hunter Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Have been using Downthe.NET nearly two years now. Downthe.NET provides cheap hosting with good customer support. Downthe.NET is able to fix most issues with in 24 hrs. Downthe.NET offers better service then HostGator for less price. I might even be able to get you 20% off...

StarchyPizza Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 What I mean is to upload your HTML files and have your own domain... So if you go to freetechsupport.com for example you will find my user created HTML pages that i uploaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antirem Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Media Temple or if you need to host a lot of sites... mosso. I am on mosso right now. Ive had some front page digg stuff and since both of these use grid servers it distributes the load and my sites havnt gone down. Media temple dosnt do backups.. but you can make your own custom cron job to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digip Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 1and1 There have been some horror stories about and1 in the past. Never used them though, so not sure how reliable they are: http://elliottback.com/wp/1and1-sucks/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eviltechie Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 There have been some horror stories about and1 in the past. Never sued them though, so not sure how reliable they are: http://elliottback.com/wp/1and1-sucks/ Ha ha, when I bought my domain, I tried to figure out their website. I couldn't though. I went with godaddy instead for my domain. They kept trying to push hosting on me at every click. Didn't want it, already had it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wire Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I've hosted a fair number of low-traffic websites with ICDsoft, which runs shared hosting boxes at Savvis in Washington, DC, US. They have very responsive customer support, ready to go the extra mile to install oddball libraries or help your figure out their custom control panel, especially considering their rock-bottom price. Not recommended for high-traffic operations, but for "user created HTML pages" on your own domain name, this might be just what you're looking for.

URDead2 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 If you really want to get cheap, get a domain with someone who provides dns service with url redirection (like $15/year splinternic.com) and e-mail forwarding and point it to a free hosting directory-- http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&q=fr...mp;aq=f&oq= Total cost, domain and web hosting, $15/year.
