    UK based web hosting

    Need a good (and cheap) uk based web hosting co. Must be uk based for google page rank reasons. Don't need databases, CMS or any such. Just plenty of bandwidth and flat html / css / include files and images.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

      I've used Easyspace 2-3 times recently, seems very good. I'd recommend.

      I seem to recall that you can tell Google that a foreign hosted website is actually a UK one, I don't remember how, but I did it once for a site which is now #1 in the rankings for its niche. A Google search will no doubt reveal the answer!

        You could host it with me Suity and know that you were contributing to a fellow CUK member.

                Geographical location of a website does not affect PageRank (but UK based stuff will often rank better for UK queries).

                eukhost.com is pretty good for VPS

                    I have a dedicated server from Ukhosting DOT com DOT uk and I can say it has given me no trouble. The server is based in a data centre in Madenhead and is pretty good for the money. I have around 160 sites hosted on the server - the server is managed (granted from india) and is very cheap. When I had a VPS with the same company it was a real pain but the dedi server has been a joy for the past almost 2 years or so.

                    I would recommend getting a dedicated managed server from the company i have mentioned. BTW I have no affiliation with them at all. I tried a few other hosts but the prices were bonkers and the support was pretty crapppy.
