I'm wanting to transfer from Yahoo! webhosting, and want to get it right this time. My site isn't huge, but I do have 2 seperate log in's and various forms, so I guess I will need php, mySQL, PERL??? Stuff like that. I'll also need e-mail addresses, but I assume that is standard.
So,
1 - cheap
2 - Easy to use for novices (good customer service)
3 - php, mySQL, email, PERL
4 - good with Dreamweaver 8
Thanks for any tips on where to look.
What is the best value web host out there?
Firstly I'd say you should be looking at shared Unix hosting. This should support all of your technical requirements.
There are literally thousands of hosting sites out there, so your best bet is really to Google around and see what you can find.
For me customer service and support is key, and unfortunately this doesn't come cheap, or even at all with shared hosting packages (if you're only paying 拢6 a month it isn't going to be worth their time picking up the phone if you have an emergency). Definitely steer clear of Pipex/WebFusion - the support is diabolical and they just won't let you cancel easily.
Take a look at:
http://www.webhostingtalk.com/
For some ideas and reviews. If you find a host you think sounds good, always check out that site before you go ahead - they may have a really bad reputation.
Hope this helps!
