Well my gaming clan is starting to branch out to sevral games and i want to keep the clan as a whole. I want to create a decent php website where group leaders can manage players and so forth. The problem right now is that our current site is hosted by freewebs premium. It blows goats for rice. No database, no email, no scipts, no ftp. In fact, i can only upload one file at a time through my browser. Editing the site is a whole day affair.

After some searching i came across this site and it seems too good to be true. Most other companies charge hundreds of dollars a month for the services thies guys charge a mere $7.95/mo for. It seems like the deal of a life time.

I want to get some opinions before i commit and give credit card information to them.

I'm looking into the silver package. I believe it has everything i'll ever need. 1,500Gb storange, 5,200Gb transfer, and all the goodies.

The virtual server will work for you. Please note that prices are in USD and not CAD. Also please note that the 7.95/mo is if you sign up for 2 years.

Other than that, I see no problems. Check google for reviews.

According to the reviews-

Stay away. No want!

Unless you are willing to take a gamble, but what do I know? I just read a couple reviews of the thing that crenn posted. Looks like a coinflip.

Siteground is good. I would also recommend Site5.
