I'm after moving from my US host to a UK based one (site is for UK members).

I'm currently going through 30GB+ bandwidth with close to 3GB of data. But obviously I need scope.

Can anyone recommend a host (through experience), shared or dedicated hosting.

www.register1.net

Guy who owns it is a PHer (and regularly in here), and most PHers run their sites with him (including me) - top company, top service.

And, if you go to BTaP he will shower you with champagne for the whole night to say thanks.

Do they use cPanel?

Linux or Win servers?

I've emailed his sales address.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Now, would it be enough champagne to recoup the cost of the ticket wink

Actually, I have to say I disagree.










It's far better than that.

Thanks.

I was hoping to pay via Paypal, as the money is in an account. Maybe something to add?

I'll complete the purchase later today.
