UK forum owners - which hosting co is best
I plan to set up a forum in the new year but I'm not sure which hosting co. to use.

I am based in the UK and want a UK based hosting co. just in case I run into problems with them at some point. Also, I need a company with a bit of a track record for added security.

Anyone got a UK based hosting co. they use and would recommend????

I own my own, and the server's in London. But that would be self promotion...
All of my clients seem to be satisfied so far, though

If you're up for a free trial PM me. Of course you should try other hosts and see what suits your needs best

I'm in the UK, my server is in Texas US, the hosting company is in Australia and their support people are in India. It's all going well so far though lol.

My fear is that with these sorts of set ups it might be hard to take action against them if things go wrong and they are not subject to UK law.

Now that what you call a truly global enterprise, on a serious note it wouldn't make a difference if the company is being run in a professional manner.

Ash gets a huge thumbsup from me too. I'm not hosted by him because I needed something a little bigger, but the support he offered was fantastic.
