Hi everyone,
I am sorry for possible offtopic, but I need your help in find new web hosting provider as soon as possible, because my current host (bluehost.com) is kicking me off, they say 'your account is using a lot server resources', but my website gets only about 200 visitors per day and my disk usage is 1500 MB (maybe they do not like that?)

Anyway, what would be your recommendations for getting reliable web hosting? Where are you hosting your websites? Are you happy with your providers?

I am now checking http://www.hosting24.com/ - offer looks very nice, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space?
I have contacted them about this question and they say something that "These days 500GB disk drive costs only $30 per month, so if some day we will run out of disk space we will simply add new 500GB disk drive with almost zero costs and you can continue uploading without any problems".

What do you think about it? Maybe things have changed in last 4 years? With my current provider I get only 2GB of disk space for $10 per month..
Any ideas and suggestions are much appreciated.

Hi OxyGen,

Welcome to TWF!

Many hosting companies offering "unlimited" storage and transfer footnote it with a disclaimer, since it is actually physically impossible. Wink

However, they do guarantee such large numbers it is "virtually" unlimited.

I know nothing about hosting24 but try looking at web hosting unleashed for some customer reviews of that and other web hosts, coupons etc.

2GB for $10/month is kinda high.

Since you are new to TWF, you might want to introduce yourself so everybody can get to know you better.

Be careful in your choice of web hosting - I researched and found StartLogic with good reviews and supposedly few complaints - turns out that info was about 2 years old and StartLogic is now a nightmare -- I ended up running away after 3 or 4 months.

Can suggest you Downtownhost.com shared web hosting services starting at $4.95 per month. 5 GB Disk Space and 100 GB Bandwidth you may have for this price. Hope it'll meet your needs.
I have seen cheap offers from Serverpoint.com. Their package plans start at $4.87 per month with 150GBs of web space and 1,500GBs of data transfer.
Think they are worth your attention.

AYKsolutions.com shared deals are rather affordable, I think you may give them a try, they have been in business since 2004 and offer their clients a robust data protection system.

What control panels does AYKsolutions.com provide for their clients?
How do they provide monitoring of their clients' web sites?
Overall they seem nice for me and wanna know more about them.

Netsperience.org seems to be offering great hosting now and its only $4 a month for the starter package. I decided to be fair and not to recommend myself.

Check them out, they seem good and the owner is on here somewhere i think???

I have deja vu, or I have already seen the same words on the other forum? Maybe it is a sence in closing this thread?

There may be deja vu but that is because we all post so much here that we may occasionly repost something similiar, or very similar somewhere else because we forget about what we posted...
