Unlimited Space for $8/Mo

After a year of going to the Art Institute, I finally decided on buying my own website. I wanted to find a hosting company that allowed me to have a database and use codes such as php, perl, and asp. I was informed of multiple hosting sites that current students were using, so I went to each site and looked at their plans. The one that I like the best was a company that I never heard of before. It was IX Web Hosting and apparently it's the industry leader for website hosting. After looking at their plans, I was sold. I went with the Business Plan because they offered 5000gbs of space and 5000 email accounts with 2gbs of space for each mailbox, as of three weeks ago.

After visiting the site today I noticed that they upgraded their plans and now offer unlimited space and unlimited data transfers for every plan. Not only did they increase the space they also lowered the price to less than $8 a month. This is why I highly recommend IX Web Hosting if you're planning to have a website. And if you really want the best bang for your buck, go with Unlimited Pro for $12--nearly everything is unlimited and you get 10gbs of space for each mailbox. It's Awesome.

Great. But now you need a cross-browser way to dynamically switch between the style sheets.
