Im using 102hosting right now and when i downloaded a file off my webhosting plan. I actually downloaded at 1.5 mb/s. Its only 2.50 for a nice amount of webspace and bandwidth

Just dont register a domain there, register a domain at godaddy or something.

Do NOT use GoDaddy. Just a little warning.

Why? I used namecheap for my domain and they are pretty good. Also, godaddy isnt that bad. I used them before

I think im going to need more than that. I didnt need Godaddy for fast DL or Sourcebans at the time. Now I need one for all and there seems to be a shortage of good webhosts on the west coast.

I've heard bluehost.com is pretty good from bl4nk. I believe they are based on the west coast.

Bluehost is the same thing as hostmonster. They both use cogent and are in LA. They cap bandwidth to 1.5mbps burstable and have no where to test the speed.

Wow, if I had that kind of speed I would. All you need is a webserver (I use a Linux box running Apache webserver) and you would need a domain name and a service such as DynDNS to route your domain to your dynamic IP.

I have an old P4 desktop in storage that works ok, dunno the status of the HD and whats in it but I know its there. I know nothing about hosting websites or about linux sadly. My domain is with Godaddy though and my IP can change a lot.
