Web hosting

KierNet

I'm looking to set up a small personal site, I've had a couple in the past, but not got a clue who offers good hosting at the moment.

In the past I've used Dreamhost as I got $97 off, so only cost me something like £20 for the year, but I can't do that again. The other company I used are no longer around it seems.

I'm looking to spend around £30 to £40 for the year, if anyone can help that would be great!

Many thanks .

What do you require in your webhosting package.

www.000webhost.com are good for basic hosting.

Not much really, couple of gig for space, 500mb bandwidth should be enough, has been in the past. Mysql is a must though.

I use zoka.cc for my personal site. It's free for 7GB space, with PHP and MySQL support. The only 2 minor issues I've found with it is that a web counter (from statcounter.com) is automatically appended to your HTML pages, and a robots.txt file (which I can't find or edit) stops your site from being indexed by search engines. If you can cope with that, I've found it works pretty well.
