[Vick]

Hi.. need advice here..

I already have account (host + domain) with Yahoo! Geocities.. but now I`m thinking to move.. looking for PHP support..

Question :

1. Most Reccommended Host
- Php / MySQL..
- PostNuke/Content Managment System..
- Handle lot of visitor..
- Price about U$ 15-20 / month
- Speed.. Support.. realiable.. stable etc.

2. Another one think .. can I keep this domain ?? - sorry.. I do know nothing about domain system.. :)

Please..

You should be able to keep the domain, assuming you are registered as the owner (which is likely, however not always the case). Do you know where the domain is registered? Have access to the domain?

Also, how much space will you require? And approx. how much bandwidth?

I think it include with the account with Yahoo.. I get this for whois :
-----------
Creation Date........ 2002-03-14
Registration Date.... 2002-03-14
Expiry Date.......... 2003-03-14

Tech Name............ YahooDomains Techcontact
Tech Address......... 701 First Ave.
Tech Address.........
Tech Address......... Sunnyvale
Tech Address......... 94089
Tech Address......... CA
Tech Address......... UNITED STATES
Tech Email........... domain.tech@YAHOO-INC.COM
Tech Phone........... +1.6198813096
Tech Fax.............
Name Server.......... ns8.san.yahoo.com
Name Server.......... ns9.san.yahoo.com
---------

Space = 200-300 Mb..
Bandwith = I dont know.. but I think it`ll handle a lot of visitor.. maybe more than 10 G.. :)

I heard lot people talking abot myacen.com but their site down !! How about Tera Byte (I think hear bad comment about them at Postnuke site.. or maybe just for him).. ??

Please.. more advice..

I've heard some good things about www.hostingmatters.com as well. Also, Aletia Hosting (www.aletia.com) may be going through a tough time but I'm optimistic about their service.

Aletia hosting is actually going through a horrible time. There is a script going around their servers, that allows anybody who knows a few basic UNIX commands to SSH into their account, and have access to everybody elses files. Even to have the ability to edit them.

Many emails have been sent to them regarding the problem, they have responded saying "You cannot access other accounts through the script"


This is not a bash to another host or anything, this is what I've heard from current customers.

On another note, would you believe it, Aletia has blocked emails coming from our server! One of our customers switched from Aletia to us, and we were unable to send him his information on his Aletia account email.
