Greetings & seasonal greetings all

I am in need of advice please

I am wanting to setup a few forums, I am from the UK, but i expect most of my forum users would be world wide so I assume that I could use a US Host wouldnt impair performance? perhaps even improve it..

I am looking at Godaddy at the moment to be my host, I have a few questions that I cannot find answers to on their website:- Do they allow LEGAL Adult content? & does their regular Hosting plans include CPanel? Just would like to know if this would be a good provider as the English providers are so expensive and my cash funds for this project are not great.

Any help would be greatly apprieciated

Thanks

I have heard less than stellar reviews about GoDaddy. It should be noted that they do not use the real version of cPanel.

What do you mean saying that they don't use the real version of cPanel?

They don't have the real version of cPanel. They use their own imitation I believe.

Hi all happy christmas or if thats not your gig happy seasonal greetings

Many thanks for the help and replies, I think I partly wanted to go with godaddy as its easy to also sell domain names with them. But at the moment I would prefer a good host just to get me started. I have recieved some PMs and those are greatly apprieciated I am looking into those. Any other recommendations and advice would be great

I made 2 previous mistakes, 1:- Streamline.net SUCK and charge the earth for what others offer inclusive also they kept changing my server which meant i had a lot of downtime and seemed to get errors on my sites due to that 2:- I got a host off ebay for very cheap and umm well they vanished after 2 months ..... so I am looking to make sure i get a nice host this time

many thanks for all your help & have a great christmas

I'm very happy with Host Gator. If you search around you'll find that they have very good reviews. Great support, uptime, pricing, and features.

Hostgator, Bluehost are good hosts with cpanel as their control panel. But as always do confirm about hosting legal adult content before paying to avoid future problems.

Thanks for all the help and replies

Its not that I want to host adult material its just I have concern about others possibly posting it on the forums , so I want to ensure i wont get my sites downed. Well I am thinking about hostgator now thanks to NFLs & jon551's info forums u can only manage while u r awake and at the PC and as u all know we have lives + atm i cant afford to pay for mods etc , so 24hr coverage isnt an option

but thanks again all this is a great and helpful community

all the best for 2007

You are talking like that about these companies because you are using them, aren't you?
