Price is around 9 ddk pr month (1,63$) for their small pack, which gives unlimited traffic and 1000mb space. + some google adwords.. Their statistic page is okay - showing refeers etc., but I do not use it enough to say how good og bad it really is. And they support ASP - PHP5 - MySQL...

Unfortunately it was only after getting things up and running did I realise support was only business hours. Alas downtime has also been a frustration. Caveat emptor.

I have three domains with them and if none of their packages fit you send them and e-mail and they will do custom packages too. Service has been amazing if you have a seirous issue they e-mail you back usually within the half hour of a submission for help. They have a very good control panel with lots of nice features, as well as 4 or 5 different stat packages for tracking things on your site. I would *HIGHLY* recommend them. On the other hand I would *NOT* recomend dot5hosting they had my server down for 3 months then they offered me 4 free months with their virtual server. The guy I spoke to said that he could restore my site to the last backup and it would take no longer than 24 hrs. I called 2 days later when my site was still not up and the 4 "free" months had cost me $60 on my credit card. Needless to say I am still trying to get a refund for the 3 months they didnt provide service for me but charged me. Right now dot5hosting has stolen over $100 from me. Not too much fun. Stay away from them. Bloghosts are good! I just switched from dot5hosting to bloghosts ( http://www.bloghosts.com ), and they are amazing!

I seriously have written them love letters. LOL. Incredible uptime, INCREDIBLE service - I've sent them questions in the middle of the night on a weekend and heard back within the hour. They are super friendly and know their stuff. Their packages range in price... I'd have to check. I think I pay $23/month for 250GB. They're not the cheapest out there, but the nice thing is you can put all of your different sites on one account. I currently have four different sites all on one single account, and the URLs are mapped seamlessly -- it looks like I really have four seperate accounts. Their web interface is easy to use for setting up email and managing/uploading files. You can also use it to check your email while you're away from your main computer. Other handy stuff I'm not thinking of right this sec. Stat report is so-so. I think it would be better, but I have all these different sites and I haven't taken the time to figure out if there's a way to seperate the stats for each site. I don't use MT - my understanding is that they are MT friendly, but not with their base level package. Search their communities for "MT" and you'll find tons of info from experienced MT users there. Or shoot them an email asking any questions you have. I promise you'll be impressed with the response you get. :-) I use futurequest. http://www.FutureQuest.net/

They're the same people who run pMachine, makers of ExpressionEngine. I got a 20% discount on EE when I signed up with them. For $19.99 a month, I get 400 MB storage, unlimited subdomains, 100 MB MySQL storage, 10,000 MB Web transfer, and 30 Email accounts (with 30 MB per E-mail account). Never had any downtime and have been very pleased with their service. I'm currently with pMachineHosting.com. They're the same people who run pMachine, makers of ExpressionEngine.
