Website Hosting

[morgandawn.livejournal.com]

Edited: a huge thank you to all of you who've responded. I am swimming in recommmendations and have much to choose from. Go fans!

I have been happy with the company that has been hosting my fannish website. However, as I need to store a large number of music vids, I need more space. The company charges $3/month for an extra 100MB - which means it is no longer cost effective to add more.

What I currently am getting: $40/month for 1.2GB and around 10BG bandwith.

I'd like to go up to 2GB for the same price (or cheaper). And be reliable (ie. if you go to their forums not filled with angry customers like a few lower cost ones I've seen).

The hosting company should also offer:

KEY
- subdomains
- FTP accounts
- anonymous FTP
- web control panel
- FrontPage extensions
- password protected directories
- not object to slash or vids

Nice to have
- 10-15 POP e-mail accounts
- e-mail forwarding
- autoresponders
- mailing list
- SSL capable
- raw access logs
- full website statistics

I use http://www.powweb.com for my vids. It's $7.77 a month for 5gb of storage and 300gb of tranfer per month. I'm unsure about the anonymous ftp or autoresponders, but everything else is available. I've been hosted by powweb for about 3 years and have never had any down time that I'm aware of. They do have the legal disclaimer of no copyrighted material, but I've never had any problem with my content, slash or otherwise. Good luck.
