i've been looking around for cheaper web hosting, and i found this:
http://www.123-reg.co.uk/
i have a small site, doing graphic design. i don't have many clients visiting my site and i'm not pushing to do much more business, since i work elsewhere. the site is flash based without any big files or things to download etc. so i guess i don't need much bandwith etc. (my site is
http://www.rippledesign.com ). would you say the above hosting provider (/the hosting plan pasted below) would suffice for my needs? Also, i want to check there's not any negatives like being stuck with them unless i pay a huge fee or something. according to their spiel that i've pasted below, it seems ok - they say no release fee, etc, but not knowing much about it, i wanted to ask if the important things are covered. i can't find anything on their site which mentions a good record regarding uptime for example.
also, if i change my hosting provider, do you know would i be able to transfer all my files across easily - how does that work - do i need to download them all to my computer first? can there be hassles with this?
