i've looked at 123-reg.co.uk, they seem okay but it cost about 40 pounds to set up including a domain name and web hosting. bummer


thanks in advance

OVH for free .co.uk domains
and 000webhost for free hosting

That is who I use. They are fairly good.

DON'T use free hosting. Not worth it.

For £17.60 you can get a years worth of decent, FAST, UK hosting with Vidahost. They answer phone and email from 9am-11pm each day every day, I am in love with them!
The guys that work for Vidahost are really helpful, and everything you could want in cPanel is included.

If you bought hosting and put your site on there I bet you would easily notice a difference in loading times

The main thing with paid hosting is the support though really, you can ask anything you want at Vidahost and they will help you as much as they can.

I have a voucher for 10% off Vidahost if you like as well.

I talk about Vidahost when people ask questions about hosting. Why would I sign up for one company but then say it's best to sign up somewhere else, unless I genuinely hated them (which I don't)?

If someone asks for opinions on what is best, then I will give my opinion from personal experience

I use ovh.co.uk for hosting and domain, it costs about £12 for the year, their service is excellent.
You can also use one.com, it costs £9 for hosting and domain per year. Its really good value, the only thing they don't have is telephone support but their email support is quick.

well to start OVH is not free hosting... It offers free .co.uk domains and charges for hosting.

I personaly use 000webhost which is free and fast loading. You can choose the paid version though.
