Dear Mini Forum Members,


I'm very excited to be writing this topic for you, I've been in talks with Nick recently and we have come up with a special offer for The Mini Forum Members.

A Professional Hosting Plan, for your mini project or mini where you will be able to show images, create and upload your own personal website about your car or yourself, and even your own downloads page which could include video footage, wallpapers and anything else you like.

Also you could even make a sponsorship page and make it much easier for sponsorship if you have a mini project, offering company's advertising on your website and even the mini itself.

So what do you get from the "Mini Forum Members Package" ?
Free Domain Name
5000mg Bandwidth
200mg Web Space
The Mini Forum Web Template


What can you do with your site?
Keep everyone on the internet up-to-date on your project
Display a gallery or images of your mini/project
Create advertising pages and get sponsorship for your project


How can you create you website?
Along with nick we will be writeing a TMF guide on how to create/maintain and upload your website

TMF Price Offer
All this for £5 per month and remember, there is no Advertising or Pop Ups on the hosting (This would be your own professional hosting package for a very low price)

Payments can be sent via Paypal, Cash or Cheque.
For more information please contact [email protected]

All the best

i get all that for cheaper then £5/month.

Not saying its a bad deal like, but uptime of servers, location, data bandwith availabe to servers and stuff would have to be top notch.

Basicly it's enough for a small home user website which is why we have set those ammounts for TMF Members, It's ample enough bandwidth for what would be used by the average new web designer.

Yes mate, we could have gone down the route of offering hosting for as little as £15 a year if we wanted to, but that would mean not offering a top notch support for clients and also would mean cheap server and nothing that professional.

Were just starting out as VapourHost but if you want to see what a site thats hosted by us is like, your on one now, TheMiniForum.co.uk is a client of ours and uses the same server TMF members will be on! So the uptime is top notch :( !

We use American Servers which means bandwidth is kept at a very nice price which is why we can offer professional support, good uptime, and a good spec server at £5 a month.

You may also reconise me as member number 1 (QuickShift) I know some of you already, I helped nick start up TMF at the start and have now got into Professional Web Hosting ! Not the cheap stuff ;D !

I wont go into the talk about competition with other hosting companys as there is so many around these days, I'm hear to offer TMF web hosting for a good price and well smart package offer for you guys !

And hope that we can form a great friendship with members here at TMF.

Good point I didnt add that into the main topic !
Lets say 30 pop3 email accounts, free *domain name for everyone who signs up and the database support we will help with as much as we can on any problems and errors you get.

*Domain name would be a .co.uk domain


Were currently working on the TMF Template and gathering up information from nick on what TMF members would like on there site, the template of course is only a guideline! I.e you dont have to use it, but will be having it there for the members who are new to web design !

And we will also be including guides on how to edit/upload and add pages to the template.

Includeing Images, Videos and more!

This is a great help for people who are just starting out in web design, as alot of people don't know where to start or where to go !

A new client of ours who has no experience of web design at all has created this website www.team-razor.co.uk

It's nothing special but shows you how easy it is to install a forum, add webpages, create email accounts and code things such as images into his website.

Glowing endorsement from me. I transferred my sites quite a while ago now and have never looked back.

I get CPanel with mine, so can host multiple sites with one webspace. Get forum software for free, everything that you usually get with CPanel.

But the support is amazing, Mike has always been on hand to answer my questions or sort out any problems I have.

All in all I'd recommend VapourHost to anyone.

Aye, CPanel is the most common one to use these days due to the amount of extras and stuff it carries.

It is defo a good idea, even if you use your space for hosting pics like i do.

My website is REAPERPRODUCTIONS But i dont use it, half of pages are moved or missing. I design websites for companies as and when they ask me, but i dont call my self a professional, just canny good. lol

My website used to consist of SQL database intergation for news postings, articles etc etc, but i never used it like sed above.
