Hi,
I'll be the first to admit that I'm a total novice when it comes to website building, but I've found myself in the position where I need one to host Fanvids and other related stuff... and I badly need some advice and pointers in the direction of cheap suitable hosts.

What the site needs is at least 1GB disk space, 5GB bandwidth, fairly fast download times, the ability to password protect directories and upload from my ftp server.... all the other website 'bells and whistles' might as well be Greek to me... I wouldn't know what PHP was if it bit me on the bum!

Also I need to be able to pay for it using paypal as I'm one of those wierd creatures that doesn't possess a crediti card (which is a good thing.. trust me on this :twisted: ).

Any help or advice you can give me will be most gratefully apreciated.

Thanks

http://www.ahosting.biz/ - i've used these before - good prices, nice packages. not sure if they are what your looking for, but there reseller packages might be worth a look.

Thanks Jess.. that looks like what I need at around the right price.

Another couple that I was looking at were

and
http://www.simplehost.com/web-hosting.htm

Does anyone know if these are reliable company's and if they are suitable for hosting a site full of fanvids?

NOTE: I have deleted the obvious spam attempts, as well as those with unfounded castigation.
You should never have to elevate your business by debasing your competition. Supposition of your competitor's flaws will never conceal your own, in fact, it usually has the opposite effect.

Please do not spam in this forum again.

Cheers.
