Looking for hosting for art community up to 20$.

Erm need lots of space and bandwith.

Currently best that I found is hostgator:
http://www.hostgator.com/shared.shtml

Any suggestions?

$20 per year or per month... per megabyte?

DreamHost.

I've heard conflicting things about how nice their service actually is(downtime-wise), but someone who has used them more will be able to confirm whether or not that's actually still the case.

If you want to go cheaper (and probably have all the space/bandwidth you can use (and more)) try www.bluehost.com they offer unlimited gigs of transfer, unlimited disk space and a lot of other things. Plus, as someone who has used them for over 2 years now, I have never had a problem with downtimes ro their support not being able to help me out (24/7 live support). Plus, it is only like $7-8/month (if you go for the 1 or 2 year plans; otherwise it is closer to $50 for the first month, then about $9-10/month after that).

Hope that helps.

i have heard that DreamHost is very big overseller and other bad stuff about them.

Erm I thought that there NEVER is UNLIMITED stuff. You really do think that I will get that is is offered?

BTW you pay every month for bluehost?

At this point I only get 2500 gig of transfer and unlimited disk space (I believe), but I haven't had them update my server for a while. They keep coming out with better things, and don't charge to upgrade, you just have to open a ticket and they will get it done as soon as they can. I actually pay with the 2 year plan, just because it is cheapest and everything.

Here is a list of all the features that bluehost offers by default:

While I am not sure how the unlimited stuff works out (they probably will charge something extra if you start using terabytes of data) I don't think they would be to mean if you managed to go way over the unlimited mark.

Erm but you have to pay money at sign-up?
