    Hey guys, its been a while.
    I'm not sure if this is the right board to post this...sorry!

    So as of right now I have this incredibly small plan with x10hosting.com.
    Service and up-time has been 100%. However, holy hell it cost too much for the little you get on higher plans.

    Right now its cheap. $20.00 USD a year. However, since its cheap I get almost no bandwidth and storage. Right now I just have a closed sign up on my website. I can't even really finish it because I know ill run out of storage.

    On top of this, since September, a studio Zoey and I made is ready to full bloom into its own URL!
    While we want to keep the forum, we also want to start our own business from the same URL. Well direct more customers this way.
    But with the material were going to be selling and the storage I know well be using, we need something big! :)

    So in all, I need a host that allows a cheap or free rate for double domains and sub-domains as well. Our bandwidth between the two sites will be shared along with storage so a large or unlimited amount would be best.

    Mind you also, were kids with some shit to sell, were not rich by ANY means.
    But im not going to settle for idiots plans with no security and Cpanels.

    My website:

    IT studio:

    http://bluefur.com in Canada seems pretty good, and includes shared SSL. http://Dreamhost.com and http://IXwebhosting.com in the USA seem to get good reviews (although they seem a bit expensive to me on a year-to-year basis, but you get a lot for that money). Those are the main ones that have caught my eye recently. If you want to see who is ACTUALLY reliable rather than who just claims to be reliable, check out http://netcraft.com and http://uptime.netcraft.com.


    Personal opinion: whatever you do, avoid Canaca.com like the plague it is. They were unreliable as hell when I used them, then denied it even though I had netcraft logs to prove it. They then charged my card 2 years after I cancelled, then refused to reimburse until Visa stepped in and slapped them silly for being idiots.
