TBH didn't check the price, just that we've been using them for a while and the service can't be beaten IMHO.

PM Jamie he owns Register1 - for details.

You get what you pay for...

Register1 is keenly priced, and let's be honest, how many other hosting company's would be helping you with an issue (user error my end, not theirs) on a Sunday evening...?

Sure, can better it many times over... but if what you meant as opposed to better was simply give more numbers for less money, then no.. but that's not bettering

Ask yourself this simple question, do you NEED that much space, and if not, what's more important, quality or quantity at any cost?

Check my profile to see what other PH'rs think..

Without wishing to interrupt the Register1 love in I set up a site on 34sp six years ago for a friend and have had no problems with them in that time. Nothing fancy, just basic HTML and it just carries on working without giving any aggravation. The site I set up hardly pushes the service to its limits though, either in size or throughput.

I only ever need to contact them when I forget the passwords hehe. They replied quickly to my email queries, but I've not tried this at 3am on Sunday morning .

As with all things, it depends what you want from a service. Cheapest is not always best value for money.

Hold up, I've just checked their website, and their £27.95 per year package only comes with

34SP Pers 400 said:

400MB disk
4000MB (4GB) bandwidth
1 MySQL Database
10 Mailboxes
£27.95


Compared to the Register1 VDS and VDS Pro

Register1 VDS said:

2000MB disk
60000MB (60GB) bandwidth
Unlimited MySQL
Unlimited Mailboxes
From £33


Register1 VDS Pro said:

4000MB disk
200000MB (200GB) bandwidth
Unlimited MySQL
Unlimited Mailboxes
SSL
Dedicated IP
Forums
Shop
Blog
Web Calender
CMS
etc
From £66


Unless I'm missing something on the 34SP site, they're offering is many times smaller / less feature packed.

Bet I can beat that .

dreamhost.com with code: (I think) SUPER777 or 777, can't remember.

I can find out though! I get 20GB with a couple of TB of bandwidth a month for about $2!

My geeky Son uses Dreamhosts.

Almost seems to good to be true to me, speaking as an old git!

I use QIQ.
All I know about them is it's cheap (must be 'cause I'm also a tight git!) but I can't remember how much I pay, and the CS is very good.

I signed up to QIQ before I knew about Register 1.

I'd be interested to hear Jamie's comparison and how easy it is to switch - if needed

Skeggy,

I had about 12 websites all hosted in different places with different companies. And to be honest they were all a nightmare to manage, so I decided to consolidate and move everything to 1 place ..... with Jamie.

And I will confess I was dreading moving everything, but in all honesty and fairness it was so so simple, easy and quick. I was truly astonished.

And I did have a few issues (I hasten not with Register1) which Jamies team were able to help resolve quickly, and at odd times of the night too.

So a 100% happy customer here yes

I'm going to blush soon Kinky

Moving shouldnt be an issue, but sometimes the losing Registrar can be a b1tch, however there are always ways around wrinkles

Sorry J - I'm just telling it as it was.

Yeah I had a few wrinkles (with other hosting companies), but we got them all sorted!
