Hosting Suggestions Please

Matt · 10-26-2005, 02:57 AM

Ok Folks, here's the deal. I need a relatively cheap hosting plan. The BAndwith I dont think will be a massive problem at this stage.

We need to host about 20-30 forums (phpBB). There all small at present, but it's likely to grow pretty quickly. The ideal will be a move in 2 mths to a dedicated server, which, we may ask you to provide.

Obviously location isnt a huge problem, but we will be running scripts and it must be up to date with mySQL / php / unix / etc

Can you let me know the best deals you can offer asap, as I would prob. like to take advantage of this within the next 48 hrs.

Chrs all.
Matt

fancynet hosting seems pretty good,

20 to 30 phbb forums could be a heavy load on some servers. I'd be sure to check the server specs on whatever host you choose.You might want to look into a vps rather then simple shared hosting. The last time I checked a2b2.com had some rather inexpensive vps plans.

redz · 10-26-2005, 08:02 PM

yea vps and dedi would be good since you would not recive as much downtime as a shared host, no offense fancynet i never used your hosting before so i dont know.

PM me we can work something out

I suggest you get VPS or Dedicated servers as you have so many forums. You will not get lots of downtime if you go with decent hosting company.

Just so other know, here's a couple of things.

1) Many thanks for the feedback. Good to know people can help still

2) We decided to goto ChronicHosting.com - John is a very nice lad and sorted us out completely. We ended up going for the $20 per mth Medium Plan.
