Web Host Needed

[Ice_Cube]

People of Fed2K.... I am in need of a cheap webhost that is pretty reliable and preferably in the UK (not a requirement). Also, it would be nice if I can use this webhost to purchase the domain too (.co.uk)

No scripting support is needed (no PHP, CGI, etc....)

Not much bandwidth usage

Little disk space required

Any ideas people?

Thanks

Beware of ultra cheap web hosting, you are likely to be disappointed with $2/month webhosting.

their TOS is so big and i'm too lazy to scroll through all that junk

To be honest Ken, all I need is some webspace to put HTML files on and have fairly decent uptime. This is a seriously minimal usage website. So I would of thought some company out there would offer a package to suit those needs at a low price.

[ken124578]

Can't your own ISP provide you with that webspace then? Mine does.

[Ice_Cube]

I don't know...I'm with pipex but they never told me about free webspace

[ken124578]

ohhhh, pipex is your isp? well, you can always ask. Mine gives me 50mb which is enough for me :)

[Ice_Cube]

I just took a look at their details and they do offer space.....but I can't see if I can use my own domain, it seems that I can only use the subdomain provided.

[ken124578]

You can always point your domain name to your website.

I used to search feature from webhostingtalk.com to find some reviews of pipex :) (if you haven't registered an account yet)

have you tryed freewebs.com you get about 20 mbs or geocites thats about 15mbs and thene you can use a free web based forwader like www.dot.tk as that gives you a .tk extension.  the only problem with someof this suff is you need something on the bottom saying "This website is hosted by doodooheads.com or the like.

Thanks for the suggestions but I can't afford to have adverts/popups  :-

I think I will try and go with the free space provided by my ISP

[ken124578]

else you can try polarhome.com (I thought I told you about them already?)

they're free, no ads and they give you ftp access and support php/mysql

Thanks for all the help guys, the issue has now been resolved.

Oktagone seem to offer good service. Especially now after the re-organizing.
