Paid Hosting Question

kester

I have a customer's site completed, but the hosting company is charging way too much for the bandwidth it gets... it's a very targeted audience.

I am looking for a host with PHP4> and MySQL available. Preferably with telnet access. I need mail forwarding for approx. 10 names. A good automated management console would help as well. Also, I need 100 megs of space and virtual hosting on this server for a couple personal sites as well.

Could any of you provide me with a good hosting company that doesn't charge too much. Thanks.

What's your pricerange?

I use http://www.phpwebhosting.com. $10/mo, everything you wanted.

www.datapacket.net , its what I am using and everything works great. Not sure what MySQL version they have, but it works just like the most recent, and their PHP version is 4.0.4, which isn't too bad, and I'm sure they'll upgrade if you request it. Unlimited bandwidth is my favorite features. Really inexpensive.

Thanks for the info...

Good price too.

However, I'd still like to compare a bit.. any others out there that are similar? Any Canadian Hosts?

I notices someone suggested datapacket.net
I would suggest you read some threads at the WHT forum first. For example http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15206&highlight=datapacket

I have had great service and prices from http://www.venturesonline.com

I'm using phpwebhosting too.

My only beef is that their control panel isn't as great as it could be. There are a lot of things (like making subdomains, databases, etc) that you have to send them a support request for. These take time, and I know they could be automated if someone wanted to sit down and write a script for it (the guys at www.l33t.ca (they're free, and they're down almost constantly) did it).

Overall, I'm pretty happy with PHPWH... they're fast, reliable, and they dont charge for anything over the $10/mo. I'd recommend them.
