They offer a load of options, I usually go for the 100Mb one. This comes with several configurable email addresses, unlimited monthly traffic, a bandwidth of 128Kb, PHP4, 1 MySQL database and access to Apache logfiles. If you pay by credit card it works out at around 50 euros per year with domain name.

I've heard of people having problems with their mail box (lost messages) but personaly I've only experienced a couple of problems in 2 years. Also worth knowing that a couple of PHP commands have been modified, notably the mail command.

I'd be interested if anyone knows of a good UK based hosting company.]]> 01/14/04, 014 28 2004 2004:%i:1074119321 17:28:41 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p252 Vladimir said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p253

I'm not much of a fan of the run-of-the-mill servers on IIS which host multiple sites and are run by $8-an-hour HELP DESK people.

However, I do admit that running an in-house server has liabilities too. Someone needs to maintain that server and if it is full of credit card information, then security can become an issue.

Maybe this is not an ideal recommendation, huh?]]> 03/01/04, 061 17 2004 2004:%i:1078150666 09:17:46 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p263 Flaxen said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p264
For the other sites, such as e-commerce etc I decided that it would be wiser to use an established hosting company!]]> 03/01/04, 061 09 2004 2004:%i:1078164587 13:09:47 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p264 Dzblack said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p265
Front End: If your site has no dynamics, i.e., db or ecommerce, then it needs only a plain hosting service. Many sites fall into this category. No scripting, just information to the public. Business Card web sites (that's what I call them).

Back End: If your site needs dynamics, then host it with an ISP that provides excactly what you need for scripting. However, that's where the rubber-meets-the-road and difficult to pin down. For example, does your ISP open up the CGI-BIN? If so, to what extent? Is it for simple forms under their control or yours? Does your site need a professional back-end host that caters to your needs. In many cases, you will find that your front-end site is ok but you outsource all your back-end needs to multiple hosts. It's getting difficult to find a host that can serve all your back-end needs.

Friends, from my perspective, its all about front and back end needs, and no host in service today can meet all of them.

Been using it for about 2 years now and have had no problems with it. Nice and cheap (aboout £5 a month) and lots of features (php, sql, all that). Not bad for a small personal site.

Their free hosting is great as well, they give you php and sql for nothing! but you do get less space, a bandwidth cap, and a huge google ad bar on your site.]]> 04/22/04, 113 08 2004 2004:%i:1082642937 10:08:57 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p268 Baffone said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p269 dzblack said:
I realize that setting up a server and running Apache is not for everyone.
I understand that, but how complicated is it? My ISP offers me two solutions for the same price: a dedicated ISP server and a plain dedicated server.
Both will run Apache on Linux in flavour Red Hat, with the usual options turned on (FTP, IMAP, POP, SMTP, DNS Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, C, C++, Jave, Perl, Python, PHP, shell, ...)
In the first instance, I would have root access to the machine and I could communicate via Telnet or VNC, in the second one they would setup a control panel for domains administration and simple adminitrator's tasks.
I'd like the second option (because I could install anti-spam or anti-virus filters which I could not do in a computer I don't administrate), but I wished I could know if administrator's tasks are really complicated. Any suggestion/idea?]]> 04/30/04, 121 37 2004 2004:%i:1083317847 05:37:27 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p269 Joe Gillespie said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p270
I find, (that with my ISPs) the tech support always assumes that you know more than you do and give short answers that never really help.

As a 'visual' person, I think in pictures and there rarely are any. The plethora of cryptic command line commands I seldom get right because my typing is bad and I'm dyslexic to a certain degree. Patterns of meaningless characters are impossible for me to remember even for the short time it takes to type half of them.

Now, with all the command line stuff in MacOSX, I have developed a technique where I copy and paste commands into the console and hit return. That way I can navigate the UNIX directory structure - which is a major hurdle for starters. I still have no idea what usr, etc, var, lib and all that stuff mean.

I managed to install PHP, GD and FreeType libraries, but only because Apple give a blow-by-blow tutorial on how to do it and I was able to copy and paste it line for line. If I had to type it, I'd still be trying. Left to the instructions on the 'official' sites, I'd be sunk without trace.

I suppose that what I'm saying is that you might have to pay a little more to get 'quality' support. For an ISP, the cost of putting a few megabytes onto a server pales into insignificance to the cost if answering question in a thorough and timely manner.

Books. There are lots, but again, not enough pictures to explain the concepts. UNIX is not a visual environment unfortunately and that is the major problem for me.]]> 04/30/04, 121 28 2004 2004:%i:1083320935 06:28:55 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p270 Jim_bradford said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/miscellaneous/i_need_a_host/#p271
