My webspace is up for renewal in January, and I have a difficult decision to make. Do I stay with them or do I move what I have to my free (it comes with my paid email address at no extra charge) host?
Here is what I’ve facing starting with what my present host (Honest Networks) offers and then what my free host (Runbox Web Hosting) offers by comparison.
Honest Networks – Runbox Web Hosting
DirectAdmin Panel – cPanel
10,000MB space – 200MB space
150GB bandwidth – 4GB bandwidth
3 MySQL databases – 5 MySQL databases
$30 for 6 months – free with my email
They both have a lot of other features besides those listed, but these are the main ones I’m interested in and so have focused on.
In a way it seems obvious that I should stay with my present host because of the space and bandwidth I’m offered, but I really don’t use that much of it and, if I combined the free host with another free host (ironically owned by the company that own my present host) then I could get away with “sizing down”. I don’t really want to, but money is an issue right now. Then again, it’s a big inconvenience to haul everything from one place to another…
I guess I have a month to figure this out. *sigh*
If you want my opinion which you probably don’t but here it is anyway… I think you should stay with Honest Networks.
I know that you love your website and £15 for 6 month’s sounds like a great price I know that Runbox is free but you shouldn’t have second best.
I mean, Runbox is great but I think youn should stay with what you like.
Sorry if this post doesn’t make sense.
I appreciate your opinion and I’ll keep in mind what you said. I can’t believe it’s less than a month to go already…
I do love my website with Honest Networks because of the freedom it gives me but I also don’t want to keep it and pay for it just for the sake of it.
I need to do a lot of thinking.
Well, thinking is good but remember not to get stressed over it.
Love you!
