Hey dudes,

I need some suggestions on which package to choose.

Usually, how do you choose a web hosting package? The size? The bandwidth speed?, how fast at least?

For now, which hosting companies do you think is reliable?

I will be running some music site, so will upload some musics/vids. Go for 1000MB space? What is the 'standard' package people go for today? Like today most of us are using 80GB disk, no longer using 20GB disk.  laugh.gif

Hmm, i'm wondering how to configure the settings inside, never try this before.

And, some of the package includes, i don't really understand what it is.

Please advise.

An example of this hosting site.

http://www.exabytes.com.my/products/

Thanks dudes.  thumbup.gif

well, if you go for exabytes.com.my, I would say, you did a good decision! Its reliable and also, they provide very good customer service and fast response from their support team as well... So far there is no any problem with my website hosted at Exabytes.

Ok, after that where to register MyDomain account? I don understand....example I buy from sempoihosting.com  then where should i register?

and the domain name server...i just have to change it accoring to what u write? ...only 4?
*
buddy, actually its like this... You can buy the domain name from any Registrar means you can buy from any webhosting company like ipserverone.com la, or sempoihosting.com and etc... Once you purchase the domain name from them, you will be provided an domain control panel from the company. You may change the DNS stuff there...

So now, if let say you just want to buy the domain name but you do not have any webhosting, you can redirect your domain name to your current blog/forum/etc... You get what I mean?

I registered this for my company, and so far, no any downtime occured... its been almost 1 year I use it. The price is really cheap if you compare to our local one... I mean compare in terms of web storage and bandwidth... But I am afraid you won't use that much too... laugh.gif but u can have a look lo... biggrin.gif

ok. Which plan did u take up? may be we can share ?
or else who got other provider to recommend ?

I think its difficult to share a webhosting with you la... tongue.gif haha... since this is my company's one... but even its my personal one, I am afraid its also difficult to share.

Anyway, other than that, for my personal website, I use HostRelax. Well, basically it is also still cheap compare to other webhosting. The service still ok lo, not so bad and not so good.

Oh ya, the webz2host.com i guess it is developed by webzworks. Besides, seems like they are not using Linux platform's control panel. They are using HELM Control Panel. No fantastico no syok! laugh.gif

So where should we get a reliable yet affordable webhosting? Local or Oversea 1?
*
well, actually it depends... perhaps you can also have a serach at Google.com to see which is the best webhosting. But normally only those overseas webhosting will be listed there. Well, for local webhosting company, there are actually few webhosting which provide a really good services, fast response, great support... I would suggest Exabytes.com! Perhaps you can have a try to ask for their information or etc. They will probably reply you within 24 hours, that is what they promised, but I never got that long to get their response... Normally just within 30 minutes or not more than 2 hours time. thumbup.gif For me, I will choose Exabytes for the local one while for oversea, I still prefer Ixwebhosting.com!

hmm, I can answer your following question only...

1.) its better for you to choose RM100 webhosting with Free domain. using free webhosting, they might be a lot of limitation, but with purchased one, you can fully utilize it!

2.) Hostrelax is offeeing RM30 per year for the domain name registration only. You can check this http://www.hostrelax.com.my/domainprice.asp !

How is host relax's service ?

And is it important to make private our domain name ?
Some domain name sites doesnt offer this private domain name thing. Does that mean they are giving it private or public ?

well, so far so good. You may check their website and send some request to ask for more details about it. Currently one of my website is hosted there... since last year April until now, so far it does not has any problem with it.

I am not sure what you meant about private or public domain ler... hmm.gif

Hmmm ...
Public domain, when you check yourself from www.whois.com (is it this site ?) They'll show WHATEVER informations they have about you. Meaning all your address, phone, whatever will be known immediately by somebody who checks for your site.

Private domain, everything is kept secret. All your address, phone number, name is replaced with the registrar's name.
Why not make it private? What is your reason ?

What is the meaning reseller ?

oo.. ok... i thikn you can check with them...

Hello,
If u link your domain to blogspot, u will still have ads in your web rite?
How to remove those ads?

QUOTE(michaelfoo @ Mar 18 2007, 04:41 PM)
You can only remove the ADs if you host your blog in a paid hosting account instead of with blogspot.

Thanks.

ya, agreed! You can only have "Ads Free" if you are using paid webhosting... otherwise, there will still have some ads popping up. Between, you should not install some stats which will generate pop up ads also... just like mine... its useful, so I did not remove it... biggrin.gif haha...
