Subject: Re: [PHP] below10host.com as webhost?
I'm sorry, but why do you say webservpro doesn't make a lot of money?
I am really looking for a good host for a 'friend' of mine. He has a small
website (<20mb) and I don't think it gets too many hits. He doesn't have
very much money to spend on a web host, so it must be something cheap. It
needs php (4 would be better), and at least 20 email accounts. A mysql
database would be really, really good. Ftp access (to upload pages) is a
must, but telnet/ssh is always a plus. The host need to allow domain names.
I think this is about what my friend is looking for. Does anyone have any
ideas (besides below10host.com or phpwebhosting.com)? Thanks again :-)
