Best website host?

[eugegall]

Currently use Freeola/ Get Dotted for 5 websites and 6 email addresses but I think there're totally gash.

Would anyone recommend anyone to use?

Cheers

We use fasthosts at work iirc, never had any problems, they're easy to speak to and have about 80 domains with them.

no prices show up on ukfast?

Always preferred www.vidahost.com, good guys and well priced.

Have used bluehost for the last 5 years, not a single period of down time that I remember.

Good value if you buy 12 months at a time.

Always used HostGator. Amazing service, if you have a problem it is usually fixed within half an hour to an hour or even instantly because they have online chat. Wait in queue and speak to an adviser who usually do things instantaneously as you talk. They are limited by software, hardware faults though they then raise a support ticket for you to the webmasters of the company who deal with the problem promptly.

Hostgator are generally good but as they are based in the US it's not particularly good for your website in terms of SEO.

I'd recommend Tsohost - https://www.tsohost.com/

Recommended to me by a leading SEO company in London and I've had zero issues with them. They have a lovely custom interface as well for doing everything like adding new sites, setting up mail addresses, etc. I'm just on the £5/month package.

Swbroadband.co.uk <- look no further.

catalyst2.com. Best customer service out there based on the ISPA awards. I also work for them and am here to b**ch at! Also, 99.97% uptime & n+1 redundancy.

HeartInternet > reseller package, all done and dusted, whitelabel, unlimited space, good support.

 

[eugegall]

I'm glad everyone has suggested something different. Still have no idea. lol

 

[conneh]

What are you looking for? How much space? Do you need a domain as well?

http://www.swbroadband.co.uk/uk-webhosting-cornwall.html

Pretty sure one of those packages there would suit you well from £2.49 a month!

www.unitedhosting.co.uk

Incredible customer service and very stable.

 

[Sym0n]

I use me, because I'm awesome.

Swbroadband.co.uk <- look no further.

Nothing to do with you working for them? LOL

*best* is probably the wrong word to use, my hosting bill is around £800 a month

 

[Chip-mk1]

I use bluehost and have been pleased with the service overall.

Used fasthost in the past for work too, they were ok as well.

 

[Sam]

Ive always used http://namecheap.com. Ive got over 20 domains with them and websites to go with them all and there always pretty good.

Better if you need a dedicated IP to.

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

000webhost for free and no ads, cpanel as well! or proweb (in nottingham for paid)

I think that the OP mentioning his budget and what the site is for would probably be a good idea TBH, as different hosts suit different size sites.

 

[conneh]

I work for them? LOL.

No I don't.

 

[rctempire]

Remember to pick a UK host, otherwise legally your handing over all your data to the USA (if you pick one or they have hosted servers there) and the goverment can access anything they so wish. Technically your breaking some amount of ISO laws here if you do that.

 

[Cup_Phil]

I work for them? LOL.

No I don't.

Your about page on here said otherwise until you edited it.
Also your profile on steam says otherwise

And your profile on 206info

Also...

And you setup a proxy and subdomain on swbroadband.co.uk for someone here -> http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?560912-Proxy&highlight=swbroadband

Just sayin...

Yeah kinda what I meant - hosting is hardly a one size fits all deal

FLOL

Way to advertise your company there Conneh, by presenting yourself as a dishonest employee who lies about who he works for.

Best hope your boss doesnt see this thread, FLOL

pwnt.

I use vidahost. Awesome personal service

 

[cava83]

Absolutely owned.

 

[Mr Pants]

LULZ.

You won't go far wrong with most of these suggestions. I would stick to a UK based provider though.

 

[Chapster5]

Hostgator is in Texas full of win.

 

[conneh]

I actually don't work for SWBroadband, so i don't see how i have been 'owned'.

I've used Relichost before and they've been good, just a reseller type affair (I think it was a post on here that put me on to them about 5 years ago) but have been cheap and good for that time.

As for the above, if you don't work for them I'd be intrigued as to the affiliation then as I'd say you're either something to do with them (a mate's company maybe) else it's just a little weird to have it plastered all over your profiles
