Title: In search of a good web host
Post by: Starfury on December 04, 2003, 06:41:54 pm

Hey guys.  

I'm looking for a good, non-free webhost, and was hoping some of you could recommend some.  CGI-Bin and Perl are musts, the rest are just... nice.  Uhm... reliability would be good too. :)  So yeah, there ya go.  It's gonna be for a personal website, of sorts.

www.ucvhost.com - Cheap and unlimited bandwidth. But their support and service are a bit iffy. Uber cheap though.

www.tengun.net - Cheap, more storage space then UCV but limited bandwidth for most (cheap) plans. I don't know about their service, since I've never used them.

I've used Homestead for years for my free stuff. I don't see why they wouldn't do pay stuff good as well.

Yeah, i'm with homestead currently.  Unfortunately, it has a 10 page maximum upload limit... and my website has a few more than 10 pages... just a few, but it'll grow.  that, and I have forums remote hosted that I'd like to get onto the same webserver as the actual webpage.  Hence, why I need cgi-bin and perl support.  So yeah.  As for the rest, I'm checking them as I see 'em!  Please, keep the ideas coming!

Yeah, It's in rough shape, and the news has been adapted for the new site layout, so it doesn't match the color scheme, but...

/me hopes he's not to late

http://www.dream-studios.com/index.php?p=resellers I got Dev plan #1. It'll take a couple days for the domain to resolve, but I'd be willing to host you. Free if you don't want a domain, but a few buck a month if you do (you gotta register it).

Of course this all hinges on if I can figure out the sticking UI!
