Searching through the forums, I have gathered that a few members on here get their hosting from QiQ.co.uk . Im thinking of going with them on their Premium Plus package.

Just wondering if anyone on here still uses them?
If you do could you tell me what download and upload speeds you get from them and if your hosting is in the UK?

Also are they a good host or should I look elsewhere?

Thanks

Lots of reviews of hosts by erm OcUK members. :)

I'm with QIQ having been recommended to them by bledd. I'll never forgive him for it! :p

I am uploading an 17.4Mb file to my site to see how fast it is/long it takes. I will do the same for the download to give you an idea. I believe the hosting is in the UK but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Only joking, I think they are very good.

Edit // About 5-6 minutes to upload at a rough speed of about 55Kb. I'm on a Uni 1Mb link btw. I am downloading the file at about 120Kb which is the max I can expect from my Uni connection. :)

Yeh looked at the ochostreview already, but like the look of QiQ.

Sounds pretty good speeds, would you be able to upload a file above 10mb and then give me a link so I can test the download speed on my connection? If you wouldn't mind and have time of course.
 
Wow nice speeds, got around 500 throughout the download :) Better than dreamhost.

Looks like the hosting is in the UK, got a 35 ping to your site.

Think this could be what I go for, on the Premium Plus package. Have to think of somewhere to get the domain from as they are quite expensive registered from qiq.
 
500Kb?! :eek: Shakes fist at Uni network. :(

The Premium Hosting is what I'm on, £16.99 a year so you must be getting the next package up?

My domain is with 1&1. Thinking of moving it to 123-Reg.co.uk though, think it'd be a little cheaper. Also thinking of getting the .co.uk as well or instead of. Hmm don't know. MarcLister.com, MarcLister.com & MarcLister.co.uk or just MarcLister.co.uk? DECISIONS!! :o
 
I was thinking of getting the £29.99 package:

Wheres the £16.99 package?
Hmm that was my first payment. It is now £19.99. Looked at wrong email, my bad.:o

Think i'll buy up Marclister.co.uk just to help you with your decisions, joke :D
:eek: Cyber squatter, I'll have thee in court! :p

Can I ask why you are going for the Premium Plus? I've just noticed the SSH access is on that but not on mine. I may not actually need SSH but it sounds like I should have SSH. :D
 
Yeh going for it because of the SSH access, im buying the hosting for learning purposes and may find I need it, plus £30 a year is not expensive at all :D

Only about £2.50 a month so all good :)

How do you find their Control Panel? , looks good to me although without hosting I cant properly use it :)
