Is this a good deal from Freshnic.com - I really need some good webspace with php and cgi/perl urgently..

The "ultrafast plan 1" - they sell for £49/yr but as I have domain names with them they are offering it 2 me for £29/yr

Freshnic Plan 1 (http://www.sqinternet.co.uk/services/compare.html)

If the above site seems bumpy to you , which ones do you recommend?

I can´t find anything about bandwidth (please correct me if I´m wrong), and isn´t "Unlimited Email Forwarding" and "Unlimited Email Aliases" the very same thing (again correct me if I´m wrong)

Otherwise I think it looks nice! :)

Unlimited Email Forwarding means you can have unlimited emails from your domain forwarded to another email address.

Unlimited Email Alias is from what I understand unlimited pop3 accounts.

There are 2 diffent things :)
Email forwarding is when you have a email account and you redirect the emails that you receive in that account to another email account.
Email aliases is when is like a catch all email. I mean.. you have sales@domain.com tech@domain.com whatever@domain.com and all that emails goes to main@domain.com account, that email account is the only that exist the other.. are just alias :)
You can't send emails from sales@domain.com or tech@domain.com... but you can do it from main@domain.com
I don't know if I'm clear.. my english limit my explanation :)
