Question Recommended web hosts

Just wondered if any of you could recommend a decent web hosting service. I dont need anything fancy, just some cheap reliable space i suppose.

Thanks

If you need quite high bandwidth, www.servage.net - 160gb/month for €7/month. (referer = sidtech use this and we both get a month free)

Another, rather large, vote for Titan. Been with them for at least 4 years now, fantastic service and very good pricing

I've jut switched to Titan and nothing is too much trouble for them even though I screwed up the original order form

Up and running in minutes. And when I had a few questions, replies back within the hour.

Big thumbs up here.

Cheers

Can't agree there, I'm afraid..... I'm at court against them in May, so should be interesting.

An extra couple of quid increases bandwidth allowance

Dedicated server prices are also very competitive.

See I couldn't find an option for it Paul, just looked again. It depends how much bandwidth you get for "a couple of quid".

We switched one of our sites to titan in January.

Our bandwidth allowance was 4gb.
We used 15
The 11gb excess was charged at £7 per gb

Our revised package takes into account our bandwidth usage at not-a-lot extra cost.

I am sure they would come to some agreement on the extra usage. They are very reasonable with their rates and you get a personal reply to your query very quickly.

Them and Protx have got to be the best 2 companies I have had the pleasure of dealing with on the web.

Titan are good but their control panel is very limited. We use them for abit of hosting and email but have domains with www.oneandone.co.uk whose email reliability isnt as good as titan's but their control panel lets you do loads with your domains as well as offering alot of add-ons.
