ASP.NET Hosting Found!

Posted: 02/01/2012 @ 18:17

After much Googling, and avoiding some very dodgy looking websites, I finally settled on aspnethosting.co.uk.

By the looks of it, this place offers the best value-for-money deal on asp.net hosting - even compared to my current host, phpwebhosting.com, which is $9.95 a month, which translates (at the moment) to roughly £6.41.

Obviously at phpwebhosting, I can't host ASP.NET applications, and seeing as these days I do next to no PHP development and lots more development (even personal stuff) in .NET, I signed up for aspnethosting's "Professional Plan".

It's normally £5.00 a month (which is already cheaper than phpwebhosting), although if you use the lifetime discount code they are currently running (aspnet_25), you can get ASP.NET hosting for a mere £3.75 per month. This package includes:

• Up to 99 email accounts
• Up to 2 gigs of HDD space
• Up to 10 seperate websites
• Up to 2 hosted domains
• Up to 2 SQL Server 2008 databases

I'm impressed so far - managed to configure my application and get it working with ease. All on the first day, in under an hour.

I'll be running my aspnethosting account alongside my current phpwebhosting account (which I currently use for my personal email - and another personal website), and, if everything holds up as it should, I think I'll be switching over to aspnethosting permanently.
