Google Ads wern't available when I signed up. They had an offer when I signed up that you got a LAKS USB Watch if you signed a six month contract. Stupid me didn't take the offer because I was scared that I wouldn't like them and be stucked.

USB watch? That sounds good. I would prefer that. With these google ads, I think you only get £50 worth, and you have to pay for after that... Still nice... I wouldnt reccomend them tho...

Can't find ColdFusion on their site, but their fees are pretty good (I'll bear them in mind in the future).

I think they are planning to put it on, but they need to have time to get it working fully. They should post some news about it when they do. The owner wont tell me any more. heh.

WOW you guys are certainly on the ball. I came back here (eventually finding my original posts - couldn't threads with new posts be moved to the top of the list as current?) to refresh on what others had said about hosting.

I didn't do anything about it while I had problems with my computer which with the help of some fanastic folks here I finally resolved. Now I am ready and able to get my site on its own domain and seek hosting.

It's been interesting reading the posts here of late and the links to other ones too. Oh Jack, you naughty boy! Sorry, but your attempts at hiding the fact that jc-hosting is yours have put me off even thinking about using it as a host - unless you want to provide services free of charge for those you have deceived here.

Well as an update to my original post, I am now looking to possibly host two websites. The astrology one currently on UKU is the main one I want to move as I said originally: http://www.aquamoonlight.uku.co.uk I have totally redesigned the site ready for it to be rehosted, so on UKU it is the original one.

My other site is hosted on free web space by a dial up thing with Chilly Hippo, part of Tiscali. Admittedly they offer a brilliant service with this including as standard all the things you would normally have to pay dearly for. But, people have been having problems, supposedly with the URL. If anyone would like to check this out for me and report any problems I would be very grateful. It is non-commercial.
That URL is: http://www.weymouth.here-on-the.net

So, as far as hosting goes, I am now thinking along the lines of having a domain (though not got a clue what to call it as it would have to be neutral/general) with sub domains so that both sites, totally unrelated, could share the same domain. With me? lol

Thank you all for your posts here, the help is much appreciated. As is the humour provided by the antics of Jack

Hi Jack,

RE the current posts being at the top.

Go to the User Options, click edit, adjacent to Display preferences, number of shown threads, languages, colors... Then check to see that the Time Slip is enabled.

This will place the thread with the latest posts at the top of the lists.

lol, thought that might make you smile


Regarding hosting - I have almost decided to go with Compila, mainly because they offer unmetered bandwidth and load of other stuff too. My astrology site is currently getting approximately 20,000 hits a month and with 100+pages, bandwidth restrictions would be a worry. They are a UK company with UK based servers (I checked it out)

So, has anyone here had any experience with compila.com? Or know anything about them?
