@Dean, I meant EvilLS1 offered a site which is far cheaper than yours.

@HellFear, I can't get to surpasshosting.com so don't worry, thanks anyways

@filburt1, that site looks good. Actually I need about 30GB bw a month, but that price seems to be above my afford. I'll talk with my admins about this tho. Thanks for the link.

oh well i was referred to surpass from someone else... oh well i wasnt going to go with them anyways. im going with http://www.sonomahosting.com

Well I was only giving my reccomendation, in the hosting industry you get what you pay for, it's as simple as that :)

cheap is not always cheerfull when it comes to hosting, there's a lot of "wanna be hosts" a few things to check first would be
1. do a whois on the domain see how long it's been registered, it will give you an idea how long they have been going.
2 check forums like www.forum2.co.uk and www.webhostingtalk.com
3. never ever ever use a company called eukhost.com just read the thread on forum2.co.uk and you will see what I mean.

And if you really get stuck I have a reseller account and can set you up with some space :)

Also don't go with www.oneandone.co.uk <-- worst host ever in my experience :D

thanks everyone, my hosting was back after 14 days down.

I'll check all the links here, I hope I could find a better hosting.

Well...

I was in the same predicament and went with ahosting company which offered dedicated IP addresses (which for me was a big plus).

BLAH!!! http://www.ixwebhosting.com <------THEY SUCK MAJOR MOOSENUCKLE!!!

Anyway...found the ultimate BADASS Host.
ONWEBUSA.NET

I am very finicky about who hosts my sites cause I can't stand being down even for 1 hour let alone 14 days.

Don't be alarmed by their pricing...look them up on ebay, thay have their Platinum Plan on Ebay for $3.99 a month....

Trust me on this one.....I am surprised and VERY VERY Pleased!!!

Ah, when little kids with bad language get dedicated servers.

Mommy should have took away the credit card.

Given that you admin for them...hardly an unbiased opinion.

On-topic: I seriously advise checking out WHT (www.webhostingtalk.com) for what people's experiences of various hosts are prior to making a decision. Don't just base it on Price. If someone else has a very good experience with a company, look around to see if others have too.

I was with surpasshosting, but the amount of downtime and huge server loads (probably due to other users on the server running 'naughty' scripts, but still..) were enough to make me move on.
Throw in the fact that the 1st level support staff are unable to accomplish simple tasks, the communication between departments is lacking (I purchased an addon domain, but Billing neglected to tell Support, and we went round in circles), and the much-vaunted 90-day money back guarantee takes over a month to even answer emails about, and I advise anyone who wants a host where their site is up reliably..don't go with Surpass.

www.hostmatters.com is excellent for those people who don't want to be able to control their reseller account types...or resell. They keep their server loads under 1 at all times...whereas Surpass support staff once told me 'between 8 and 12 is reasonable'.

I have used www.best1hosting.com for years and been pleased!
