Webspace Advice

I've got a bit of spare cash at the moment, and I wouldn't mind getting myself some webspace so I can host my own mixes, as well as a few bits of writing and so on. I know a few TA members have their own space, so this is as good a place to ask as any.
So basically, what's the best plan of action? Buy with a big, faceless Internet company? Find someone smaller? How much space would £1-200 get me? And so on. |

| There are lots of free sites too that run on ad revenue... But I guess you want site where you just suddenly won't realize that all your 50 gb of mixes that you have uploaded at ~20 kb/s are gone because you forgot to log in for two weeks. |

I'm automatically suspicious of such a good offer. Can you vouch for this site, or are you taking the piss? |

Okay, thanks. How does the backdoor stuff work when you have your own webspace? |

FTP. I've never really used it before. Although I can probably figure everything out quite easily, based on what the site itself is telling me in my setup emails. |

| I requested to be banned until the 16th, but Swamper hasn't unbanned me yet so I've made this account to contact him. |
