Currently hosted by FreeOLA, but they don't let you upload stuff using a PHP script, you can only upload through a freeola connection, which for me is dial-up. Uploading music to my site takes ages. Everything else about Freeola is fine.

Can anyone give me any info on how I go about moving hosts, and if you could recommend any to me, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks very much :-)

500MB would probably be enough.

Do you want my email to send some details over?

Woah, I can't get a gig of space but I can get you 500MB probs, as long as you don't start going over 100GB of bandwidth a month you should be fine!

Dunno how much bandwidth, we only get a couple of hits a day, so probably not much I'd guess.

As for actual space, we put up MP3's, so will probably need a Gig or two, could probably get away with less.

The important thing is to be able to upload files from any connection.

How much bandwidth/disk space do you want? I can get you a nice free package, same as where my site is hosted.

Do they charge per month for hosting, or is it a one off fee?

Also, do the offer mySQL support, and do they charge extra for it?

Cheers muchly for the info :-)

http://www.2wdh.com/ - What I use; reliable, cheap and has the best customer support service I have ever had the pleasure of using.

http://digital-crocus.com/ - What Timmargh uses; found it yesterday after looking at his site. Looks pretty decent, a bookmark for the future if something untoward happens to 2WDH...
