Globat.com has their 1-year web hosting package available at $4.44 per month. One of the considerations when looking for a cheap host is if they're going to be around next month. Globat has been around for years, so there is less risk on that front. You get 1TB of storage, 1TB of bandwidth, zero setup fees.

    Do not trust these burp.
    They might be around. But they suck so bad you'll wish they went out of business.

    #2 is correct. They are fu*king garbage. I have been using them for the last year and up until a month ago (fingers crossed) they were going down two to four hours a month (during prime-time hours, no less). Maybe they fixed it (server upgrade, they said, each time, when you could actually get through to them)...But even if they fixed it, it doesn't give me enough peace of mind to recommend them to anyone here. Remember, you get what you pay for.

    #2 and #3 should be sued for their litigious comments! Globat is a highly reputable company with excellent customer service! FACT!

    Any recommendations on ISP's? I've grown tired of Infinity Host (http://www.infinityhost.com/products/compareBudgetVPS.php) and would love to find a MORE RELIABLE, better value, virtual private server. Biggest drivers for me would be >5GB storage and >50GB data transfers.

    Advice?

    as mentioned above, if you do research, many people are displeased with the service.

    no, sorry i do not know what to recommend, i have a friend doing my hosting now, he gives me a deal, much more reliable (and i have a cell # when stuff doesn't work Wink )

    After trying multiple low-end hosts, you get what you pay for. Customer service usually is terrible. I have had my website turned off with no explanation.
