hi guys
gonna get myself a website. id like it to have a little audio player on it to play my tracks when someone logs onto the site (dont know if that makes any difference but anyay…)
can anyone recommend a web host? they all look pretty much the same until you sign up and realize theyre a load of rubbish and charge u far too much. btw… how much is too much for a host?? not a clue.
help! thanks
I’m with Media-Temple, there amazing and great value for money.
http://mediatemple.net
Never had a problem with them and i have been with them for 6+ years. There Customer Support and Technical Support team are also fantastic! Very professional approach and then literally run 365 days a year, 7 days a week, 24 hours! Whenever you need them their there! 
Have i sold it to you yet? lol.
In the future thou, just to let you know ill be providing my own hosting, off the back of Mediatemple with KDUK, how soon do you need your hosting?
wanted to get something going this weekend tbh.
yes youve sold me on them. think you or someone else mentioned them before. think im gonna get the grid service.
if i sign up to them does that mean my domain name is registered to me? or i gotta do that elsewhere?
Good! I should be on commission for them bad boi’s at media temple lol 
They are fantastic and you wont regret taking up hosting with them either. Thats the one i have, the grid-hosting.
If you need a hand with anything, let me know.
p.s. been having a play about with that logo for you today, should have something drawn up for monday :hehe:
I use http://www.ukhost4u.com/
No real reason, lol
Although their user system is really easy to use, even comes with step by step.
I’ve got bags of bandwith and server space. I could happily set you up with an account (all private and all yours) that you’d never pay anything and never run out of space etc.
Jus’ sayin.
thanks guys. signed up to media temple earlier. about 13 quid a month

Have your received your conformation emails from them yet bud?
To be honest what usually happens is when your register for a new domain name, it can take 24/48 hours for the internet itself to pick up a new domain.
When you received your registration email it should contain a temp domain name will be something like s123456.gridserver.com
oh thats ok then. i dont mind if it takes a few days to appear just so long as i know its not messed up.
ye i got all of my emails and stuff.
Wicked! As long as you got the emails then everything should be in hand for you.
Best thing to do is log into your MT Admin Panel and start doing what you need to do, if anything at the moment so everything is ready and waiting to go-go-go!
got it going
