Hi all
I am looking for a host with the following:
Around 50-100MB webspace
PHP (with mail() )
MySQL not neccessary, but if there is its ok
Reliable (like, as long as it has been around for a year or more)
****
and this is very important: I do not host my domain on their servers, instead I manage the domain using VirtualHosts. i.e, I set a domain 'A' record to the server IP and I configure the path it will serve up, e.g. http://12.23.4.5/users/mine/site1
And maybe a second domain loads up http://12.23.4.5/users/mine/site2
and then a subdomain etc
Which means I intend to have a few websites on one account (my websites are pretty small, the main one is about 25MB, my personal site 10MB and another <1MB), and at lesat two domains and 1 subdomain pointing to different directories on that acct.
****
I don't need POP3, although having a few accounts would be nice (cos I'm using free POP3 accts now).
I don't need SMTP (I have my own)
I don't need those mailing list managers (have my own, which is CGI-based, and I can either run it on the host or on my own computer)
Bandwidth, a few gigs should be more than enough (I hope)
Price of course as low as possible, but I'm willing to pay up to US$100 a year (but I doubt it would be so expensive?)
Hope I didn't miss out anything
Thanks for any help
edit: hosts are welcome to reply, especially if they can fulfil the part enclosed in '****'. Thanks a lot.
