How much can you get a server from? What kind of spec? I wouldn't mind my own proper web presence, but wouldn't want to pay as much for just a simple web host as I could for a whole server.
A dedicated server aint cheap at all... minimum ur gonna get it for is 100 quid, but i dont do those aniways, the closes to a ded server i can offer is the Enterprise package on www.awsdesigns.com which is 10 gig hard drive & 100 gig bandwith, the rest of the features are all UNLIMITED + you get CPanel which is a server control script, thats 25 quid a month.
