I'm looking for a decent webhost. Yes, Zymic is good, but I am planning on paying for one. And no, this does not meet I'll leave Zymic. Because, if you look at Glitches Exposed, you'll see it's no longer hosted on Zymic =\

Anyways. I don't need a too big one. If possible, I'd like it to be cPanel powered. Linux server and with Apache/PHP/MySQL support. It also needs to have more than 5 MySQL Accounts and least 5 Email Accounts. As well as around 5 Parked and Add-on domains. It also must allow banner ads on the website and most importantly...

IT MUST ALLOW ME TO PAY MONTHLY NOT ANUALLY!

I cannot pay on a yearly basis, I can afford it, but only after weeks of saving. Which is a pain in the ass. So I would prefer to pay monthly. And finally, it be relatively cheap. I'm not going to pay $30 a month for it, regardless if it comes with fucking IPB or vBulletin. Because I DO NOT need those sorts of features and I could just save and buy a license for such things myself. Which is easier.

I was gunna use HostGator. But they do not allow banner ads. So they suck now lol.

Surreal-media is a good webhost.

-Unlimited MySQL Databases
-Power hosting only 9.00 per month.

Checkit here.

I use it, and I am extremely satisfied. They have professional templates that integrate flash bannres. (Eye-candy mostly)

View a working sample here.

Not bad, I'd probably start with the Advanced plan and work my way up when needed. I don't need to overhost lol. Well, any of the plans are good. The only difference in them is space and price lol. It's Terms and Conditions seem straight forward as well.

Thanks.

Have you checked out dreamhost http://dreamhost.com, though it's not CPanel based, the control panel is easy enough to get to grips with.

Things I particularly like:

- Host unlimited amounts of domains
- DNS management
- Unlimited databases (MySQL 5)
- SSH access
- Really easy to setup new users and manage the bits they have access to

Paying monthly is an option, but you have to pay a setup fee and it costs more. $10.95 per month.

Bluehost was rated one of the best web hosts out there for the price. They only offer 50 MySQL databases, but that should be sufficient as not many people use more than 5.

A list of things they offer can be found here. All for a low price of $6.95.

BlueHost is good, as I've been recommended it before, but you cannot pay monthly. I tried, and there's just no way to do it.

I'm still deciding. I ain't getting it until next year so it'll be a while anyway. I do have one concern with Xila. Who in their right mind would make the ANUAL price half the cost of the monthly cost? IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENCE...

Other than that, I'm still leaning towards Surreal Media lol.

If these prices are "sale" prices, then what are standard prices? Also, you don't seem to have a Terms of Service. Either you haven't made one or you forgot to add the link. Either way, not showing one can lead you into some serious legal shit.
