Simple web hosting that is inexpensive yet trustworthy?

I am looking for a company that will give me servers to practice PHP & MySQL training. Something that is inexpensive, or free, and is an honest company. Any suggestions?

There is nothing simple about choosing a hosting company. What versions of PHP and MySQL do you want? Do you need PHP to be configured as an Apache module or will FastCGI be OK? Do you expect to make use of mod_rewrite and .htaccess files? Do you need access to php.ini?

For example, one of the posters above suggested GoDaddy. Their pricing is affordable, they let you choose between PHP 4 and PHP 5 (on per-directory basis, if necessary) and between MySQL 4.1 and MySQL 5.0. You can use .htaccess files and even create your own php.ini. The downside is, their PHP is configured as a FastCGI executable, so you can’t do HTTP authentication with PHP (although you can use .htpasswd files to compensate for that); also, mod_rewrite doesn’t work with their PHP installation the way you would expect it to if it were an Apache module installation (the implication being that some popular applications, such as WordPress, can’t do pretty, or even semi-pretty, URLs).

More importantly, if all you want to do is practice, there is no better place for it than your own computer. You can run PHP and MySQL on either Linux or Windows. You can run PHP with either Apache or IIS. PHP and MySQL can be downloaded free of charge from their respective developers’ Web sites. There are also installation kits that install and configure Apache, PHP, and MySQL on Windows.

How to host a site on the net made on microsoft frontpage?

How to host a site on the net made on microsoft frontpage?
i havent made it but want to
how much will hosting with private servers cost me in all??

Web hosting pricing varies I am currently paying about 100 a year for my plan but I have far more features then most will ever need. I can actually host several separate web sites on one account and can have more MySQL databases then I will need. You can find a link to my web host on my links page http://www.lakeareawebs.com/links.html

You will also want to purchase a domain name if it is not supplied by your web host. My web host provides me with 2 free on their middle of the road account which I have. However if you choose a different web host you can always buy your domain names from godaddy.com for under 10 dollars a year each.

Building a site with front page can mean a lot of different things are you building it with .html or .htm pages only if so you can use an apache web server. If you are using ASP technology though you will need a Microsoft IIS web server. If you only need front page extensions you can have them enabled on either type of server with most web hosting companies.

I would highly recommend you learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, MySQL, & PHP if you are looking for professional results from your web page.

I actually pay less then 120 dollars a year for my domain name and hosting. I do not pay for advertising, merchant account, or SSL certificate though.

Is getting a dedicated-virtual server the best way to avoid getting shared hosting banning because of CPU use?

What I mean is…at Mediatemple.net with their (gs) Grid-Service plan, they only allow 1,000 GPUs and if you go over (instead of getting banned) you have to pay more
and I think "banning" was the wrong to use…I meant "suspending", like how some sites suspend you for a day or more if you happen to get on the front page of Digg.com

banning?
who is you’re provider? Get rid of them…

the best hosting I’ve ever had with fantastic support and amazing reliability and speed is
mediatemple.net and theplanet.com

pricey, but worth the money…you get what you pay for.

I changed email hosting providers. I get most email except from AOL and RoadRunner users. Do they update DNS?

I recently changed my email hosting provider. I updated my MX record to point to the mailhost for my new provider. I am receiving email from most people, however email sent from friends who use AOL and RoadRunner as ISPs, does not arrive. I have used DNS tools that display MX records (dnsstuff.com, iptools.com, mxtoolbox.com) and my MX record is set correctly. Since I am receiving mail from other people and businesses I am am assuming the problem resides with AOL and Road Runner. Am I wrong?

Yes, it seem to be DNS cache problem with aol and roadrunner. Have your friend do a nslookup on your domain and the mail A record and see if the point to the correct address.

Why don’t Christians turn to the true God Odin?

Haven’t they read the words of the High One? Don’t they know we are living in the End Time and Ragnarök will soon be upon us. The Earth will be racked in the Fimbel winter and Loki will lead the hosts of Hel against the Holy Gods. Unless they join Odin and the Einherjar in the battle against the Frost Giants they cannot hope for rebirth on the Golden plain where peace and justice are forever. Is it just wilful ignorance or do they hate the good?
(Irony warning!!!!)
They can dish it out but can they take it?
Please note the irony warning if you don’t know what irony means I respectfully suggest you use a dictionary.

The 13th century eddaic account of Odin likely contains some Christian elements. The scene where Odin hangs from a tree as a sacrifice to himself has been suggested to reflect the crucifixion of Jesus, down to the detail of having his side pierced with a spear; however, archeological evidence, such as the above mentioned Tollund Man, clearly establish that this form of sacrifice existed before the time of Christ and thus is most likely developed independently.

Other inconsistencies, such as that Odin was hung by a rope from a tree whereas Jesus was nailed to a cross (both wood, but in different contexts) further supports an independent origin of the myth. It is still likely that early Germanic Christians connected the two myths, moulding their image of Christ after Odin and vice versa, an effect that is also suggested by the Anglo-Saxon Dream of the Rood which portrays Christ as a Germanic warrior-king.

Odin’s son Baldur, a god of light, shares some of Jesus’ traits as a youthful "dying and rising" god, but unlike in the case of latter, his resurrection fails and he has to remain in the underworld. The Havamal account of Odin’s sacrifice positions Odin in the otherwise unique Pauline Christian attributes of a "father god" who suffers and defeats death.

The similarity of Odin and Jesus was resurrected by Richard Wagner. Wagner’s association of Odin with Jesus is treated in the Notes of the Seminar Given in 1928–1930 of Carl Jung. Recently, the German National Democratic Party issued T-Shirts labeled Odin statt Jesus ("Odin rather than Jesus") that were popular among the extreme right, but also among apolitical Neo-Pagans.

However both derived from the same story. I believe what you say but i believe what christians say aswell. Does that make any sence?

How do publish a site that i built using Microsoft Publisher. since am in the uk, it says there is no hosting?

I have built a site using Microsoft Publisher. Since am in the UK , its saying there is no hosting support in the UK. Does anyone know how i can find someone to host this site i built on Publisher. Am on a tight budget so i am not lookibg for someone to do another site for me for them to host me unless the site is free. i dont mind paying a small hosting fee, but preferably as small as Microsoft would.

If there is a way to go around the problem and still host with one of Microsoft s, the better

Thanks

You can use any Web host that supports FrontPage extensions. http://1and1.co.uk is one such host; so too is http://GoDaddy.com

Where your Web host is located does not matter. What matters is if that host has FrontPage extensions enabled on your site. You want that.

Once you find a Web host that has FrontPage Extensions enabled, you publish your site following the instructions here:

Are common web hosting services like Godaddy the same as shared web hosting services?

Hi,

I want to know if Godaddy, HostGator,… are considered as shared servers or there are differences between mentioned services and a shared web server.

Thank you

I can only answer for GoDaddy as I’m a client. Yes. It’s shared hosting unless you purchased a dedicated hosting plan which is $$$

Which UK Web Hosting provider should I choose for my Wordpress blog? What UK Web Host do you recommend?

Which UK Web Hosting provider is best to host my Wordpress blog? I have tried 5 but I keep having downtime. I just want to host my blog and eventually an online shop using Magento.

I’ve been hosting my site with Evohosting for years, and I really like them.

http://www.evohosting.co.uk/

I’ve never had any issues with downtime with them, and their prices are really good. You shouldn’t have any problems using Wordpress or Magento with them, because you get them free when you sign up. You also get something like 60 other scripts for free, but I really like Magento and Wordpress.

So I guess I’d have to recommend Evohosting. Just really good customer service, cheap, no downtime issues, and lots of free stuff!

Best of luck to you with your site!
