.co.uk Web Hosts?

Hope I'm posting this in the right section, if not can you please tell me where's best? I am looking for a web host that allows register/transfers of .co.uk domain names. At the moment I use Free Hostia (www.freehostia.com), they are great but do not allow .co.uk for some reason. Can people please advise me on what are the best hosts currently available? Any help is greatly appreciated! Niall Niall - I had a look at Hostgator (BlueHost too!) and see that they only provide Linux Web Hosting, what are the differences between Linux and Windows Web Hosting?

1. Hi Niall, I can fully recommend Hostgator Web Hosting for .co.uk domain hosting as I have lots with them. I have used Hostgator as my web host for over two years now and have been very very impressed with them. Firstly they're very cheap but still give me more web hosting space and bandwidth than I'll ever need, the ability to host unlimited websites, a 99.9% uptime guarantee and great customer support. For less than $8 a month you get: 600 Gigs of Web Hosting Space 6,000 Gigabytes of Bandwidth Host UNLIMITED Websites 99.9% Uptime Guarantee 45 Day Money Back Guarantee CGI, PHP 4 & 5, RoR, Perl MySQL, SSH, SSL, IMAP, POP cPanel Hosting 24/7/365 Upgraded Support You can find them at http://www.webhostgator.info Was that any use to you?
2. hello! i suggest you check My Webbie Hosting's plans. The cheapest is only $3.95/month, which already includes 1.5 G disk space, 150 G data transfer, 50 email accounts, preinstalled PHP scripts, etc. I put the link below to their control panel (multilingual and customizable) demo so that you can check and experience the company's features. They also allow .co.uk registration for only $17/2 years (or about $9.50/year only). By the way, about your question on the difference between windows and Linux servers, I pasted here their difference.hope these would be helpful. Linux and Windows are the two most common and readily available operating systems, and there are many good reasons for using both. Unix systems are very similar to Linux (and Mac OSX systems are as well) but as I mentioned above, Macintosh systems are few and far-between. Accessing the Server The first difference that most people notice with Web hosting operating systems is how you access the server. Both Windows and Linux offer FTP access to your files, but only Linux will generally offer telnet or ssh access. (It's possible to set up telnet access on Windows, but very few hosting administrators offer it.) FTP is a way of transferring your files from your hard drive to your Web server. Telnet and SSH are a way to open a window directly on the Web server and manipulate files right there, usually using Unix command line commands. Writing Your Pages Both Windows and Linux servers will serve HTML pages and JavaScript. Typically, Windows servers use files named *.htm while Linux servers use files named *.html, but there is no real difference between these names, just what you prefer. FrontPage extensions are often cited as the reason to use a Windows server. But there are Linux servers that offer this service as well. CGI CGI and Perl access are often found on both Windows and Linux servers, but it is more typical on Linux. If you need to program forms, you should make sure that your hosting service provides CGI or another way to process them. Other Server-Side Scripts But you're not stuck with just Perl if you need to process forms. Many hosting systems offer PHP, ASP, and ColdFusion. These server side scripting options give you a lot of flexibility. PHP is more often found on Linux systems, while ASP is more often found on Windows. ColdFusion can be found on both. Databases If you're going to run a dynamically driven Web site, then you'll want a database. The two most popular are mySQL and Access. mySQL runs on both Linux and Windows, but is more often found on Linux servers. Access is only available for Windows. Security Security is very important to your Web host. Many people will argue that Windows servers have more vulnerabilities than Linux servers. But the reality is that they both have security problems. Security is more important at the hosting service's administration level than it is at the operating system level. If you have good administrators, your server will be more secure - regardless of OS.
