UK ADSL with ASP.NET Web Hosting

[Guest]

Hi,

I am in the UK and about to change ADSL provider.
I know a lot of ISP's offer ADSL with free webspace, but it generally tends
to be PHP & Linux based, does anyone know of a UK ADSL provider who's free
web hosting space supports ASP.NET?

Thanks

Doing a search just now, the only one I could see (but there may be more)
was www.augury.co.uk, but I've no idea what they are like or whether they
provide business broadband as well as domestic.

In the main ISPs won't provide ASP.NET because it costs more for them -
Linux/Unix based servers are cheaper for them and they need to keep their
costs down.

Given that ISPs tend to give you a subdomain off their domain name, you may
find that for any sensible hosting requirement that this makes your ISP
unsuitable. You may find it more flexible to have your hosting and ISP
separate, in which case any of the following sites may help you find a
suitable host: www.webhostingtalk.com, www.webhostingstuff.com or
www.hostsearch.com.

I hope this helps and that you find something suitable.
