Has anyone use the services of www.cedant.com or www.visualpresence.net? Theire prices seem quite reasonable, but like most of you have said, companies that offer low prices may provide poor services. Thanks in advance to all respondents.

They both look nice, but this is what I noticed.

VP, offered very low bandwidth for every account. The highest one they have is only 5 gigs for $40 a month.

C, offers more bandwidth, but only gave 4 gigs for $24.95 a month.

$24.95 a month is the average competitive price. I would expect to pay at least that much. What happens if your site grows and uses up that much bandwidth? I think it is better to be safe than sorry.

The largest host in the world, Verio.com starts at $24.95 a month, but they don't give much bandwidth and I don't think they even give SSL. To get that, you have to spend like $44.95.

Why have a business online, if you can't have your order forms secure? A good deal would be a package that is around $24.95 a month with about 5 gigs. There are small packages all over the place, but most of them don't even offer SSL, Secure Server. If you are going to do business, why would you even get some service that doesn't even offer a secure form. Do you want your cusotmers information not to be safe when they order?

If you want all the e-commerce options to make a successful business, I would expect to pay $24.95 - $44.95 a month.

Hope this helps!

If you need E Commerce account, most ISP charges $49.95 to $199.95 a month that has SSL and Merchant Account feature. Really costy but good if you are doing business not just regular. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers,
