Hosting Recommendations

[triggerthat]

Hi guys,

I need hosting for a blog so I can showcase my photos and my ranting. Fantastico would be great. Do you have any recommendations? I was looking at http://www.siteground.com/ (works out at £2.6 a month).

What do you have and what do you recommend?

Cheers.

vidahost or tsohost. That is all.

I shall use my magical powers to predict that nearly everyone here will agree with me.

i've just recently bought hosting from www.vidahost.com, and they seem pretty good so far. they're nice a quick any way

while they don't have fantastico they do have something called Installatron which works in the same sort of way

Vidahost or TSOhost, as always.

Insallatron is a much better system than Fantastico

Purchased and installed.

While I am here, does anyone recommend a particlar style of theme? I basically want to showcase my photography, my ecommerce work and general ranting.

3 column?

One little gripe I have with Vidahost is the limited SSH access they allow. Also, their ViM installation seems to be horribly defective, and support hasn't solved this

I don't recall this ticket, can you email me on [email protected]?

We give a standard SSH jail which gives you full access to your home directory and you can customise vi as needed by creating a .exrc file

Course some would say use nano but I've always been a vim man too

Bit of a side track - Installatron beats Fantastico hands down in my books!
As for hosting, it seems the de facto standard round these parts are Vidahost or TSO Host

I use both and have to say they are both excellent

It's also 'worth to speak a English'.

This question appears to be have resolved but I just want to weigh in with another vote for vidahost as they are lovely and their support chaps have gotten right onto all my queries very quickly and resolved them all.
