In working to put up my new sites, I have researched a number of different hosting companies that allow adult material. This is what I came up with:
(Based on the cheapest, 12 months)
Web Hosting * Cost * Contract * Setup Cost * Space * Bandwidth * Domains * Xtra Bandwidth-Space
DWHS * $3/month $15/Y * No * N/A * 350gb * 10gb * 3 * $.95/Gig-$2.85/Gig
Webair * 5.95/mo * not sure * 5.95 * 10gb * 25gb * 2 * $.50/Gig-$.10/MB
Certified Hosting * 6.95/mo * No * on month to month plans * UNL * UNL * 1 * N/A-N/A
Dedico * 9.95/month * ? * ? * 10gb * 50 gb * 1 * ?-?
Cyber Wurx * 4.25/mo * No * N/A * 500mb * 10gb * 10 * $.22/gb/mo-$.001/MB/MO
Server Point * 8.46/mo* yes * 350gb * 3500GB * 5 * ?-?
HostGator * 6.95/mo * No * UNL * UNL * 1 * N/A-N/A
Some notes:
DWHS: too cheap to be any good?
Certified Hosting: Unlimited within reason see there unlimited post on there site; only setup fee on month to month plan; they advertise 3.95 a month, but need to sign up for 36 months
Dedico: not a lot of info on there site, don’t feel like calling them
Cyber Wurx: Very impressed with there setup, you can customize everything from the beginning, right online. No hassle, no BS. Though whenever I hear "unlimited" I am straining to read some fine print. But 10 domains I really dig
Server Point: regardless of program you choose, they will charge 14.95 for domain registration, if you need to register one
HostGator: I know this is one of the most popular but I am not sure I see WHY. Looks very plain to me (nothing special)
I am posting this to share with everyone, if anyone could please comment on this, if there are any to add I would appreciate it, if I made errors, etc.
As of now I think I am going to go the way of Cyber Wurx, Even for a beginner it seems the right move. I like DWHS too, but haven't heard much about them. Can anyone comment on them?
