I was looking for some good webhosts for getting my portfolio website up which is totally done in flash… and I came across this one… [https://www.godaddy.com/](https://www.godaddy.com/) They have really cheaper rates…but i was just wondering how their service could be… What do you guys think and suggest ? does anyone have any experience with this webhost ? ---

> [@Templarian](#): > > There are 3 very large hosters. > MT > 1and1 > godaddy Actually, there are more large hosters. I would recommend [www.surpasshosting.com](http://www.surpasshosting.com), I’m hosting a client’s site there, it hasn’t failed once, their rates are excellent, their support is really quick and it offers all the gadgets and thingies hosts should offer. ---

I have a GoDaddy account, it’s fine for hosting, haven’t had any problems. Also, I saw an advert for this company today in a design magazine: [http://www.streamline.net/](http://www.streamline.net/) I think in the ad they were doing some kind of offer of unlimited space and bandwidth for like £15/year. ---
