Re: UK_Selfbuild Re: web-site ...
I use FastHosts for my hosting. They offer webhosting from £2.49/month
(normally £4.99) and UK domains from £2.95/year.
I curently pay £5.74/month which includes 2Gb of webspace, 500 email
accounts (POP or webmail) and ASP.Net 3.5. This also includes use of
their SMTP (outgoing) email server so I can send email from anywhere.
I hasten to add that I have nothing commercially to do with Fasthosts, I
am just a satisfied customer.
