A good hosting package for me?

Hey,
I'm currently creating a (hobbyist) travel website, which uses PHP & MySQL. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good hosting companies who offer this? I ask because I was going to go with 123-Reg due to their prices, but then I read that their customer support is absolutely poor and that they don't actually offer PHP anyway (silly me lol).
I had a look at LunarPages, but, as this is my first site (and consequently, I don't know much about hosting), I'm not sure if having my website hosted in the US will really affect me (I'm in the UK). Will it matter very much, or should I just go for it?
Any suggestions/answers would be much appreciated

Go with a UK based host if you expect most of your traffic to come from the UK. Its better for you and the Internet that way. There are lots of high-quality UK based hosts who monitor this channel. I'm sure one of them will be able to hook you up.

Hi Jack,

As Paul suggested, if majority of the traffic on your website would be from UK, you should host your website on servers in UK. We are a UK based host and our servers are based in UK ( London ), we can offer you PHP/MySQL hosting at an affordable cost.

You can view our linux shared hosting packages at http://www.eukhost.com/packages.php

Should you have any queries, feel free to ask here or PM me or you can also contact 24x7 Live Chat support on our website.

Thanks

Hi,

I'd recommend Visual Net Centre ..

Not the cheapest, but also not the most expensive either..

Support is just a phone call away anytime!

They support pretty much everything as standard too.. Asp, PHP, Cgi, MySQL.

I use them for all of my clients and have had no trouble at all..

Regards,
Mike

Need-Space Reviews


The following are some short reviews about our service:

Domain: www.chickenroyal.co.uk
Short Review: Excellent host! Cheap prices, reliable uptime, friendly
support, highly recommended!


Domain: www.imgsource.info
Short Review: Need-Space.co.uk is an excellent host, i haven't experienced
any downtime at all with them so far. The services they provide are very,
very good and they are always there to help you with your hosting
experience. I'd recommend this host to anyone who needs fast, reliable,
dedicated and flexible hosting.


Domain: www.kher.org
Short Review: I was looking for an affordable plan to suit my "internet-presence"
website. the need-space shoe fit in perfectly.
the set and payment up was instantaneous and hassle free.
for few queries that I logged in for support, I received an excellent
support with short turnaround time
I have recommended this site for my friends who are looking for hosting.
a very good package and support team indeed.


Domain: www.loonwatchonbiglake.com
Short Review: I am amazed by the fast response to set up the site. I previously set
up loonwatchonbiglake.com at another service and they kept delaying
it so I canceled and found need-space. Within an hour the
site was ready to go.
I'm seriously thinking of moving some of my other sites to Need-Space. Thank You.


Domain: www.tjeirs.co.uk
Short Review: During the time I have been with
Need-Space the only downtime I am aware of is when the
servers were being upgraded. Need-Space.co.uk is also
very good at telling me what is going with the servers
to try and prevent any losses I may receive due to
changes. Very good and very cheap! Highly recommended!


If you have any questions please email us at support (at) need-space.co.uk.
Alternatively you can PM us.

One question we get is:
Why are your prices higher than most web hosts?
This is because we DO NOT oversell our resources therefore you are guaranteed to get what you pay for. No questions asked

Regards,
Need-Space

If you do not mind a US server toward the Easter Coast, I can happily host you with considerable amounts of bandwidth and space. 1/2 of all profits go to a good cause, hopeforanotherday.org is the main site. Our hosting services can be found on hosting.hopeforanotherday.org/
