Default Good, Cheap Companies?

The company I am with right now for my own, private site, offers decent shared hosting. However it is a little pricey for the amount of space and bandwidth they offer.

Who have you found to offer good value for money?

If you want a well known company who offers cheap hosting it doesnt get any cheaper than 1&1, it's $3 a month for 10 GB of diskspace and 300GB of bandwidth and you get a free .com/.net etc domain when you sign up. Their customer service is a little on the shakey side but the hosting is rock solid.

If u have a single site then use shared hosting but if you have a bunch of sites like 6-7 sites than buy a resellers hosting package , that will cost you low and you will have full access to your site

Are you trying to set up a site or are you trading hosting accounts?If you are running a site/business then you want to always have a hosting plan. Bravenet is good and so is godaddy.

Hi!

Hosting Puppy - | Best-of-Breed Web Hosting has value deals starting at $4.99. That's not quite a steal but they do have Cpanel and Installatron. Ticket support is a guaranteed 60 minutes and they have weekly off-site back-ups. Support means expert people and they cost more than hardware and software.

Thanks for the recommendations. Again, this is a private site that has been running for about ten years already. We have tried numerous different hosts over that time. It is not big enough to warrant our own server, just shared hosting. We have about 150 members, and get a reasonable number of hits.

Perfect host for me is WebHosting2.co.uk - Quality yet affordable web hosting
^^ they own a ffew dedicated servers in downtown london and elsewhere they have great support and the only downtime I have experienced was with them upgrading PHP to PHP5.

Being in the US, and with most of our members being here, do you think that there will be a noticeable slowing down of the site's performance?

Godaddy is a good one to go with but you can also try out bravenet. I went with Bravenet my first go round. Then I upgraded with godaddy. Godaddy and bravenet share some of the same pricing but it's all about what you are looking for and who offers what.
