Web hostings

i've usually used easily.co.uk in the past, but i'm shopping around currently.

loadsa space and bandwidth would be nice...

I am too lazy.
I went with dreamhost.com a couple of years ago, and now I'm just too lazy to change.

They seem to be reliable, and do all the things I want, like hosting, email and webmail. But probably everyone else does too.

I would recommend the company I work for, but
I once tried ordering the service for myself. I gave up after 20 minutes on the phone to a useless sales person.

One of the 'techies' who is supporting the latest product (IP telephony) asked me how to order a book on Amazon last week. I had to talk him through every single mouse click, and he couldn't even type his credit card number correctly. When the service goes live, he will be answering *all* the Tech Support calls from people who can't make their snazzy IP phones work with DSL modems.

For some reason, I get the feeling my company won't last much longer.

this lot have worked well for my web design clients but I've got my sites hosted with this lot but their packages have gone a bit rubbish recently.

hmmm,
i'm liking ukwebsolutionsdirect.co.uk's pricing. much cheaper than pickaweb, and astoundingly similar sites too...

the pricing is pretty good
bearing in mind you get MySQL and all that gubbins as well

mine mine mine!
Seriously

The prices are per month in US dollars, so its about £3 a month for 3Gb storage and 25gig bandwidth plus all the usual sql mail handlers yadda yadda etc
