G'Day Tom!

Hehehe with the exchange rate Hostess would be cheaper than most of the US offerings. Thanks!

BTW the main reason I am moving from Geocities is the bandwidth. They say you get 3 Gig per month but that is allocated as an hourly rate of 4.2 MB. Do you know if hostess does a similar thing or is this something restricted to the free geocities accounts?

Thanks to everyone for their replies. Very helpful :)

Ben,

I know you're in Australia, so I'm going to recommend these guys.

http://www.hostess.com.au/

I use them for a number of my installs and have NEVER had a problem. Hosting starts from AU$49.95 a year (less than $4.20 a month!), but you get 5GB bandwidth and 100MB of space.

I always go for the business package though ($69.95 a year - Unlimited traffic, 250MB space and includes a MySQL database).

Optionally you can go for the eCommerce package, which I bundled with a number of my sites ($99.95 a year - unlimited Traffic, 500MB space & an SSL certificate!)

Keep in mind you need to fork out $25 every two years to own your own .com.au domain (and you need an ABN and to have a registered business name matching your domain), or you can pay $19.95 a year for a .com domain, on which there are no restrictions.

Cheers,
Tom

G'Day!

I am thinking of setting up my own domain (instead of currently using yahoo which has started to become a problem on release day). I was thinking of using these guys:
http://www.hostdepartment.com/

They are offering (for 12 month signup) free domain, unlimited storage and bandwidth for $US3.95/month. Anyone had any good or bad experiences with them?
