My emails and a couple of domains (just frame redirects) hosted with 1and1.co.uk, webspace currently borrowed.
What I would like is:
My emails and a couple of light websites hosted together. For emails I use IMAP exclusively, and have a 2 accounts and a few addresses that forward to folders. Websites - all I really need is php. A mysql server would be fun for trying things out but certainly not essential. I've got 3 websites to cater for, nothing high bandwidth or overly fancy.
Something like 1&1 business seems to suit the bill, but I'm not adverse to changing providers unless people think this is going to be difficult? I guess I need to back up all my emails locally, transfer the domains and then cancel my contract with 1&1 and cross my fingers that I'm not down for too long! Does £9 a month seem like a reasonable amount? QiQ Premium seems a lot cheaper (£20/year) but doesn't appear to have IMAP and doesn't include any free domains.
Thoughts, opinions? Cheers!
