  • Webhosting for showreel – recommendations?

    Posted by Tom Hannibal on September 29, 2009 at 5:09 pm

    I’m looking at setting myself up a website to host my showreel and have been looking around at various webhosts. I’d pretty much decided on https://www.justhost.com, but noticed in their T&Cs that:

    Examples of unacceptable material on all Shared servers include:
    Offering video and/or audio streaming or downloads, MP3 Files, Games and shareware is also not permitted on any Just Host server.

    Other than that, they look pretty good. Does anyone have any recommendations of a good hosting company (I’m in the UK so one based here would be best)? Or should I go with JustHost and hope I get away with it?

    That one looks like a great option for everybody but you.

    They give you unlimited transfer because they not allow you to place videos or mp3 to download or stream.

    One of the most important things in a good host service is the support. Call them and ask them for a solution that allows what you want.

    But… hey! did you take a look at the COW Video Hosting services? It’s free to look, so go there.

    Yeah, if I were doing anything else they’d be great!

    I went with https://www.ehosting.co.uk in the end.

    Will check out the COW Video Hosting when I’ve got my showreel together
