Anyone got any recommendations besides Hostgator? Always heard good things about them.

More info: I'll just be running two sites at the moment, one Wordpress, one Drupal. Both will be low traffic so shared hosting will be fine.

Hi trousers,

We offer international web hosting with first class service - you are welcome to follow the link in my signature or PM if you have any questions.

I look forward to talking to you!
 
I'd go with hostgator. Piss easy to use. Piss easy to setup and cheap as hell.
 
I've been in the game for a long time, so don't need reseller's sales pitches. Was asking to see if there's a better option.

RavenServer, I looked at your site. Up your game. It's screaming "AMATEUR!" at me. How about telling potential clients what version of PHP you "offer"? What about Rails? Python?

Hi trousers,

Thank you for your response. We have quite a number of happy clients on the forum and am not aware of what exactly gives us a bad image. We are not a reseller - we own all of our servers.

Depending on the server, you will most likely have PHP 5.2.6. I do not think listing version numbers is a good thing for the potential buyer to see, as it may confuse them or seem too technical. As for RoR, you would need to ask for that specifically, as very few clients require it. We do support Python.

I am surprised you find GoDaddy professional, considering all their advertising crammed into every corner.

Good luck in your search!

BTW, what is cheap as hell? I'm paying R60 p/m for a pretty damn decent basic .Net 2.0 host. Perhaps an objective comparison (is there such a thing?) wouldn't be a bad idea.

My current host (for comparison): http://www.winhost.co.za/ (Basic Plesk setup)
