My Optus connection came with the ability to add up to 5 email addresses, each one with 10 MB of web space. I am assuming you don't want to store files greater than 10MB as a single file.Effrem wrote:What the?
Store your data across the 5 sites and link it from web pages running on one of the sites.

I use http://www.nureal.com/
DIRT CHEAP, and have had a minimum of hassles.
I'm on the $8.95US/month "Professional" plan. Looks like they have an even cheaper one now.
It's got all the bells and wistles and allows multiple domains etc all for no extra cost.
I get a bit of downtime very occasionally, but can't really complain for the price.

I use http://www.flexihostings.net.au/home/main.php
I have found them to be extremely reliable and I host 3 domains there.
They are also good at responding to problem tickets and most of the time they have live help available (although I'm not surey're live in Oz).
They run Australian servers, but I haven't checked whether CC is the only payment option.

How on earth can you survive on the Internet without a credit card?
I used to use Digitalis:
http://www.digitalis.com.au/
They were excellent, responded to emails at 1am in the morning in a few minutes!, but I switch because they charged extra for extra domain which I wanted.

They are a bit expensive compared to www.flexihostings.net.au.EcoTeam wrote:

thanks for all your help.
And the credit card thing......
direct deposit works just as well with no charges
LOL (I am a tight arse)
