it is awesome :)
but I had to quite using it, because I live in US, and if you dont live in the UK and cant dial into there ISP you have to pay like 30 british money per year.

Thanks for the info guys - I'll check it out.

Checked it out - no good!!!
It's an ISP, not a host. Looks pretty good for an ISP though ....

They don't advertise a hosting service - unless they've tucked it away deep.
I think you misunderstand what I mean by host. I mean somewhere to put "www.mysite.com", or ".co.uk" not "www.mysite.uklinux.net".

ooooooooooooohhhh,. you want your own domain?
maybe you should contact them about that.
-
oooooooooooohhhhh! I've already GOT my own domain. What business will be taken seriously without its own domain name? (Rhetorical question)
-
well obviously businesses will be thought of as better if they can afford their own domain :o but I have bought stuff from businesses that dont have there own domain, but I was a bit weary to give them my information, so I guess you are right.
where did you register your domain?
I am thinking of registering mine at http://www.registerclub.com

You'll just have to shop around. I registered mine with the cheapest agent I knew of at the time that I couldn't wait any longer. I have since found many cheaper. And it is so quick and simple.
It is hosting that is the problem. There are so many packages available - all pretty much the same but each has their own particular feature (or lack of feature) and at such varying costs. One feature in particular to look out for is free transferring both to and from that host. Some cowboys try to charge you a fee for this. (I forgot to add this to my list of requirements on my initial posting)
