I'm almost finished with development of my personal website and I'm ready to find a host.  I know it says my location is Germany, but I will be coming back to the US in the next 2 months.  So I'm looking for a US based host that offers some real disk space.  My website has photos and videos that currently is around 3 GB but I expect to have over 10 in the next couple years or so.  I also have a SQL Server Database. So maybe I should find an host for 4 or 5GB now and hope that the host will upgrade their hardware??  I have read other suggestions on this forum and it seems that no one ever suggest a host with some real storage.  I mean webhost4life offers as their "premium" only 3gb for $20/month??? is this 2007? So then I look at GoDaddy which everyone hates and they give you 100GB for 6.99/month and 1and1 give 10GB for 3.99/month or 120GB for 4.99/month.  So since I don't want to go to the darkside, GoDaddy or 1and 1.com, can you guys give me some suggestions?  10GB and SQL Server isn't that much to ask for is it?

Hi,

i have the same situation here and i have solve mine just last week. I have came to 1 hosting company that provide me 1 month free trial and their service is very good.

 Check out Ultima Hosts as they do accomodate sites up to 300GB on shared plans.

Hi,

I would recommend HostingFest.com and DiscountASP.com

Regards 

 check out  www.cpwebhosting.net  they provides reliable services at affordable cost.

Well, I have gotten some suggestions but for hosts that would cost $20+/month for a solution that fits my situation.... So should I go with GoDaddy or what? Only the huge company's offer large disk space for cheap with SQL Server 2005.

Ultima ??? 300GB on shared plan - lol i don't think so ...

1&1 Hosting - hmm if this is personal site it may work for you. i have many sites with them and as long as server works it is good hosting, but when there is a problem it takes much longer for them to fix it that other host. But for the prices/ disk space they offer what do you expect. Keep in mind that they WILL NOT allow you to store 100GB !!! - there are limits like file limit, read agreement :)

If you need 10GB of disk space it will be very hard to find good & cheap shared hosting

If you have more $ you should think about VPS very good fullcontrol.net prices from $59/m

or you can open VPS account with 1&1 Hosting - will cost you about 29/m - BUT for VPS & Dedicated servers they havemuch better support !!!

Does anyone use networksolutions hosting?  For me it might work 7 GB of disk space and SQL Server for $10/mo...Anyone had any experience with them? What are the "file limits" for 1and1.com and godaddy?

I think I might go with godaddy.com it's cheap, it's not 1and1.com, it has the needed disk space, and supports a MS SQL Database
