hhmm
powweb and simplehost's packages are way too big for what i need
i only have like 3 gigs of pornogrerrrr, i mean FILES to put on there

hah yeah
but really
i think i'll settle with this dot5hosting

Quote:

The cheapest package here is $4.95 per month (if paid annually, $8 if paid three-monthly), for which you are given 10,000 MB web space, 250 GB monthly transfer, a free domain name, the ability to host 5 domains on 1 account, unlimited parked domains, unlimited subdomains, unlimited POP3 email accounts, unlimited email forwarding and autoresponders, email filtering, web email, unlimited FTP accounts, anonymous FTP, SSH, CGI-BIN, Perl, PHP, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, unlimited MySQL databases, 100 PostgreSQL databases, SSI, FrontPage 2002/2003 extensions, web logs, web statistics, control panel, OS Commerce, Agora and Pay Pal shopping carts, various pre-installed scripts (formmail, guestbook, bulletin board, PHP Nuke, Chat, Blogger), ability to configure your error pages, etc.

i'm pretty much wasting my money here..
i don't NEED webspace, but it's nice to have as a backup for important crap/pictures and such

if all you want is backup for pictures etc why not burn them to a DVD or buy an externa hard drive to store your backups on? I would be more worried about an online account getting hacked/corrupted than I would something I bought and have externally somewhere in my home. then again I would prob put it somewhere like the garage so that if my house burns down I still got em lol.
