| 347190 | 2005-04-21 04:38:00 | I am looking for a webhost for my website, that supports ASP. My requirements are it must be on NZ based servers for fast response times and loading. Also it must supply at least 200MB of diskspace, and a good traffic allowance. I am also on a tight budget, so only want to spend $25-$30 per month.Many low cost NZ hosts I have found so far, (a) don't use NZ based servers but instead us US servers, and (b), have only been around a a year or so. I was recommended iserve by a friend, but they only provide a small 20MB of diskspace, and additional diskspace is about $1 per MB, so isn't an option. Would welcome any other suggestions. Also they must have good server reliability, and the company needs to have been around for at least a few years, so that I know that they aren't going to go out of business, as I have heard stories of web hosts just disappearing over night! Cheers Rob |

| 347192 | 2005-04-21 05:13:00 | http://kiwiwebhost.co.nz/ Ive used em for years,Top quality service across the board,they were configuring the secure server and parked domains as fast as I could fire off the mail telling em how I wanted it setup. And they do have NZ servers as well as US ones,though for some reason my .co.nz sites are hosted in yankee land,and my .com is hosted in NZ.I would get it changed but the .com is gonna get killed off and it makes no difference to me if the rest are hosted in America,the sites load quick as a flash. So i would presume if you requested they be hosted on NZ servers It wouldn't be an issue. |

| 347193 | 2005-04-21 11:27:00 | Thanks, I have seen them before, and they are actually now owned by iserve. Unfortionately it doesn't look like they do Windows hosting, just linux. | robbyp (2751) | ||
| 347194 | 2005-04-21 12:01:00 | Still kiwi based servers AFAIK, good company. Have a talk to them platform, god knows why you'd want it served off a Windows base though. | Murray P (44) | ||

| 347196 | 2005-04-21 12:05:00 | ASP would be a start...... ;) Somebody mentioned though that it is now possible to server ASP from Linux, but I cant confirm/deny this. |

| 347198 | 2005-04-22 01:16:00 | Out of interest, why do you require servers in New Zealand rather than the US? | maccrazy (6741) | ||
| 347199 | 2005-04-22 01:27:00 | isnt it cheaper? | Prescott (11) | ||
