UBB.Developers Forums Community Development Programming Web Hosting Can someone give me some Info on hosts

I looked at www.Addr.com and they look like they have some good offers. I'm making my 1st site. It's a Videogame site. I'm using their sliver service. Its 4 gigs of bandwidth a month. is that good? What's the charge if I go over 4 gigs? Also what's the common bandwidth usage per day/week/month for a good site? I don't need exact numbers. just a simple understanding. Thanks for any advice or info you can give.

Man for your first site I would go with http://www.readyhosting.com or http://www.ntidesign.com. They both offer the same package. ReadyHosting is having a special offer right now. Heres what you get for 100.00 a year...

Don't use ADDR.com, they lost there cc/user database to some crackers, who were an fxp group they deleted off their hosting, so seeing that they are very insecure, I wouldn't trust them....

Wow! Thanks! readyhosting.com sounds very good. How good is it? what i mean is do they have fast servers ,and good customer help? Also i need a unix server for my ubb so i won't ave to reinstall in all over again which would kill me to do. or would have to reinstall?

I used readyhosting.com for my UBB and they kicked me off within 2 weeks. No email, no phone call nothing just cut me off. They said my BB was crashing their server and they gave me the boot. Don't trust the 500 mg crap.

Stay away of web host that offer unlimited space and/or data transfer, there is not such thing.
1- Bandwidth cost is high.
2- If you find a HD with unlimited space..lemme know
