As for Django support I have sent an email to hostgator people , inquiring about it! Out of hostso.com, quick2host.com , and hostagator, I found that hostgator is offering the most for the best price! But the problem with hostgator is that they want a CreditCard for payments :( or Paypal :( (I do not have a PAN card yet! ) so I am gonna try out the other providers as mentioned by Gaurish! Will keep you posted on my findings, Thanks all for the great advice, once again! :) -- regards, Karan Pratap Singh PULUG Panjab University Chandigarh -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
