Hi everyone,
I am sorry for possible offtopic, but I need your help in find new web hosting provider as soon as possible, because my current host (bluehost.com) is kicking me off, they say 'your account is using a lot server resources', but my website gets only about 200 visitors per day and my disk usage is 1500 MB (maybe they do not like that?)
Anyway, what would be your recommendations for getting reliable web hosting? Where are you hosting your websites? Are you happy with your providers?
I am now checking www.hosting24.com/ - offer looks very nice, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space?
I have contacted them about this question and they say something that "These days 500GB disk drive costs only $30 per month, so if some day we will run out of disk space we will simply add new 500GB disk drive with almost zero costs and you can continue uploading without any problems".
What do you think about it? Maybe things have changed in last 4 years? With my current provider I get only 2GB of disk space for $10 per month..
Any ideas and suggestions are much appreciated.

Jul 08, 2008 10:09 pm Crap, they are expensive though. I just compared what I have now and they are twice the price.
Do you get a huge discount if you register your domain through them or what?
I suppose though that is were they make their money is domain registration's.
Jul 08, 2008 10:11 pm godaddy is great for domain registration I would never, ever host a domain there though...all my domains are registered there, none are hosted.

Jul 08, 2008 10:39 pm I should see how much it would cost to transfer mine to them. But I have not had any problems with enom. But the price went up last year and I'm not sure I want to keep paying that much. But at the same time I'm not sure its worth the hassle to transfer them either.
Jul 09, 2008 03:36 am why would you not host there db
Jul 09, 2008 08:04 am I have had some clients that had really bad experiences with GoDaddy support on the hosting.
I am guessing for a lot of sites that don't require much, static HTML pages and such, it's probably just fine, but getting them to install libraries to use in code and such things is a nightmare.
