Good Europe / UK Host
Sep 1, 2009We currently use VirtualNames.co.uk which are excellent both feature wise and regarding customer service. Now, I'm acutely aware that ALL my clients use VN, what if VN die!!?
So I'm on the look out for another UK hosting co. with a decent feature set but more importantly perhaps is their support response time replying to queries etc.

List Of Good Hosters With Good TELEPHONE Tech Support
May 6, 2008I'd like to start an ongoing thread here listing the 'Good Hosters with Good TELEPHONE tech support'. In other words, out of the 1,000s of host companies, this may cut it down to less than a dozen.
( And for all you Hosters out there who really want your company to grow, and want to know how, - it's easy: just read here.)
Good telephone support is the #1 ultimate requirement, because:
-It's a lot faster and easier for both the user and the host company, because you can state and answer all questions and clarifications on the spot, you don't need to continually pass new emails with new questions and clarifications, back and forth for days on end, until the issue is solved. It saves tech time and user's time. And saves a lot of nerves.
- It's the best way to sort the good guys from the bad. A bad company isn't going to bother to answer the phone, - or will make you wait way too long, - because they are likely getting endless complaints. The good guys are always ready to answer the phones, with a friendly voice, - because they really WANT to please the customer.
- If a company can't be bothered to pick up the phone, we can't be bothered to even consider them. They're a joke, and so won't be listed here on this thread. (So, before adding or listing any Hosters here, please verfify that they do have Good, quick, friendly, telephone support,; ideally 24/7, but 9am to 10pm might be acceptable, if it was supplemented by some emergency contact.
AND:
- Hoster ALSO needs good EMAIL support (and preferably, Chat online, extended hour availability). (I spend a lot of time overseas). It sems all emails should get a non-automated response within about an hour, - and then support should jump on fixing any problem.
I only need support a few times a year. To answer some questions, or fix a problem, or do an install. That's lesss than 1 hour total, so any company paying maybe $18/hour tech support should be able to handle this. It IS reasonable to charge a custm for extended calls, beyond say, 90minutes a year, IF you don't count the 80%? Of times an issue is the Hoster;s fault of stmg gone wrong, and don't count the 'hold' times.
ALSO IMPORTANT:
- Uptime
- site Speeds
- Monthly plans, no contract (Only a dishonest host will try to force you into a contract, where they can then ignore you.)
- Reasonable price. (? Maybe $12 to $18/month for a basic business site. We don't need massive bandwitdths, - we all know that's an overselling scam, and can't ever be delivered.)
- a good upgrade plan of bigger options. Maybe even VPS.
- Dedicated IP, and availbility of SSL
-PHP 5, mysql, phpMyAdmin, etc
- cPanel ( Some Hosts are using problematic panels, like Hsphere, which are slow to load, slow in operation, require many more clicks, have too many options, spread apart on many separate pages. Time is money, and this really slows down the ability of a small business to manage his own site in effective time. For example, one WHT user wrote somewhere: "I don't feel that HSphere's interface is nice at all, although I have worked with cPanel and DA all my life... I just found it to include un-necessary features or split features up in to different hard to find pages, such as backups - mysql backups you had to find on a completely different page than file backups, and then there were options to have it in the home directory or server-end backup, in which then you had to wait a good 10 minutes before it was ready. cPanel, just hit backup and hit download and instantly it does everything you need...".
I have used several hosters. Currently on Aplus.net and Godad, which have phone support, and mediocre service.
My LIST So Far:
- Liquidweb: a very impressive company with good, 24 hour support. But to get dedicated IP, you need to go with their $25/month plan. Yikes!
- NewIdeaHosting.com. A very small company. My call was returned, and the owner chatted with me for an hour on the phone! Plans have small bandwidth, but promises No overselling, and personalized attention. Extra $5 for dedi IP. He specializes in Small business sites, and small eCommerce sites. He has only 250 accounts, on 3 servers. He rents servers from the Equinox data center of Chicago. Seems exceptionaly honest.
- MegaHosters. Excellent phone support and WHT reviews. But company was taken over by another company, and so may well go downhill in future. Another problem: uses Hsphere.
- Steadfast. Has a good rep on WHT, and seems impressive. Tech answered the phone immediately, but they say they prefer emails. Sales phone has limited hours. Good price on $20 SSL. But, uses Hshhere.
- JodoHost 24 hour phone. But, uses Hsphere. An Indian company with office in Florida, and good rep. I like the idea of outsourcing phone support, if it makes it more available and affordable. But, the accent on the phone was very hard for me to understand, so maybe this might not work.....
- Hostgator. Yes, it's a big overseller, but seems to get good reviews/results anyway, and good phone support.
- ? ThePrimeHost ?? Mostly good WHT reviews; some dissenters. Site says 24hour phone, but when I called on several nights, no one ever answered...
- Can anyone add to this list? Please list only hosts that meet the above minimum requirements of phone support, etc. Especially useful is hosters you've tried.
TO AVOID:
- Avoid Arvixe. I had a horrid experience with them, here: [WHT forum]:/showthread.php?p=5097822#post5097822
- Avoid WebHostingBuzz. This company never returned my phone msessage inquiries.

Mar 3, 2009I will have to deploy a site into VPS (or dedicated or amazon EC2, I don't really know yet, but I thik it could be VPS).
First of all I don't know how strong server do I need. It's rails application with 800k (up to 1million) pageviews per month. Could you tell me how much traffic do you have on your VPSes? It's rails app, so I think I will need RAM at first place.
The other requirements are:
* Server in Europe
* Stability
* Good support
* Root access

Colocation - Europe - NL Or DE
Aug 21, 2009recommendations for colocation in Europe, preferably NL or DE based?
Basic requirement:
1-5U initially, option to expand into half and full rack over time.
Reasonably priced bandwidth.
Decent remote hands when needed.
A sensible AUP would also be a requirement. I prefer a host to give you an opportunity to address any issues (such as a compromised system, copyright protected content, or similar) *before* they actually pull the plug. From what I have seen, some hosts will disable your switch port(s) almost the moment they receive a complaint - which is not acceptable.

View 6 Replies View RelatedManaged VPS In Europe
Aug 12, 2008A friend has asked me to recommend a company for a Managed VPS solution, one that must be in hosted in Europe (I suggested that he might want to look to the USA but he doesn't want to). As I really don't know too much about European VPS solutions as I mainly deal with US datacenters and companies I wanted to ask for a recommendation.
He requires a managed linux VPS solution, with a control panel that can manage files, email, databases etc, so whether its directadmin, cPanel, Plesk or whatever, it doesn't really matter.
He is looking for the following specs:
20-30GB HDD
128 or more RAM
Bandwidth doesn't particularly matter as long as its not too low.
The budget is £20 or under (around $40) per month, so he's obviously looking at quite a low-end solution.
Windows, Europe
Jul 14, 2008I'm currently using 1&1 Germany. Great service, but only in German and Google translator is getting to some funny translations. I've looked at 1&1 UK, but their prices are higher for slower servers with less RAM.
I don't want a server in the US.
I'd like Window 2003, or preferably 2008 with Hyper-V installed.

Where should i host it?
Checked Leaseweb and they want 29 euro/month for a dedicated server with 512mb ram, CPU dosnt really matter as long as its atleast the same as leaseweb (sempron 3100+).
Is there any as cheap, or cheaper than that? I found many in .uk and .nl, xeneurope (only VPS?), etc..
I find 29euro/month + a domain VERY cheap..

What does this mean for European consumers? The E versions of Windows 7 will include all the features and functionality of Windows 7 in the rest of the world, other than browsing with Internet Explorer. Computer manufacturers will be able to add any browser they want to their Windows 7 machines, including Internet Explorer, so European consumers who purchase new PCs will be able to access the Internet without any problem.
