Hosting for about 10-12$/mo?

Hi!

I'm looking for a host, preferably located in Russia, Sweden or Canada...
I expect PHP 4 and 5 support (I need the latter for MediaWiki), MySQL, CronJobs... Perl support wouldn't hurt. Webspace - nothing THAT big, 200-300MB probably, may be a little lower. Bandwidth - 10GB/month, at least.

Price - as stated in topic, I'd like something for up to 12$ per month.

Anything you could recommend me?

Do you need PHP4 and PHP5? I would recommend picking one over the other (sounds like PHP5 is probably more suited) as running them both together on same host requires running one as CGI (which is evil and wrong!) AFAIK.

Seriously, PHP as CGI isn't as good as the Apache module...

Since we don't have servers in Russia, Sweden, or Canada then I'm afraid we can't help there (but then I don't think Rick does either ).

There are a few users on here (e.g. Adam) from Canada who (I presume) use hosting providers located there, or at least know of a few you could look at. I'd suggest waiting around to see what they can add to the discussion.

@afahosting: the only interesting plan is Pro Plus Hosting [God, the cheaper plans have 1 and 2GB/mo BW, and this one get's 900GB for only L2 more per month :/ - really strange] which is more than I can now afford to pay.

@damien_ls: yeah, I'm rather looking for PHP5 hosting - and your hosting does not offer such an option for Linux-powered server unfortunately

We can offer PHP5 on Linux too, but only upon request (we have to manually ensure that your subscription is created on one of our PHP5 servers, which we don't have the ability to automate at the moment).

We can also offer PHP5 on our VPS range, although I don't think that's suited to what you're asking for here (within your budget at least).

There are quite a few out there. Anyway mediawiki as far as i know works also on php 4 without any trouble.
If you are looking for a host only for that do ask some presales questions like what is the average server load and how many accounts are on a single server. This is what you will need to know as you need a fast server and not hundred of GB of space.

@carbon:
Maybe we will refer to MediaWiki's page this time?

And no, I am not going to use the older version because of the fact that the host I'm paying for can't upgrade their PHP version.

@afahosting:
Well, I'll consider that - yet I still would like Canada-located servers much, much more...

That is understandable

But the offer is always there can do it to suit you exact needs and price plan.

Also thank you for showing me those errors with the MB etc I messed up there as I was tired lol.

Thank you though as I have updated them now.

Well, their website seems to be located in USA, which leads to simple conclusion: they have servers in USA.

Please understand I don't care where the company cames from (unless there are no resonable ways to pay for hosting like bank wire transfer or PayPal) - it can even be Mars - but I do want to have a server physically located in Canda, Russia, sweden or, as lately suggested by a friend of mine, Mexico =]

Out of pure curiosity, can you please explain why?
