Mahesh Chand: Kirtan's link is for Web.com; are you recommending Web.com or DiscountASP? Note that it is DiscountASP that is offering 3 free months if we commit to a year. I would sure perefer to use DiscountASP since it is located so close to where I am located but it is important for potential customers to note the DiscountASP Addon Options ; MS SQL Server 2008 is an additional $10 a month and that is not subject to the 3 free months. Most ASP hosts don't charge extra for MS SQL Server. I don't doubt that DiscountASP is a great deal for businesses but for developers on a budget the extra $10 for MS SQL Server is significant. The other hidden cost of DiscountASP is that you are limited in the number of domains (I mean domains; DiscountASP allows unlimited numbers of sudomains) whereas with Web.com we can have unlimited numbers of domains. DiscountASP claims to offer better security and reliability and I believe them. I don't doubt that DiscountASP is a good deal for businesses and anyone not on a budget but when a person's budget is tight and/or they just want to learn Web.com is a good choice too. I intend to move my Sam's Simple Samples to a Windows host soon. DiscountASP is located very close to areas I have gone hiking in. I personally would prefer to give them my business but currently my budget is too tight. Also DiscountASP does not offer MySQL which is not a problem for businesses using SQL Server but that means that no database is available for DiscountASP sites unless the extra $10 a month is paid for SQL Server.

As Kirtan said if you are looking for a cheap/shared hosting DiscountASP is the best. Now DiscountASP is giving 3 months free. Try it. If you don't like it you have nothing to loose. If you are looking for dedicated large solutions I recommend MaximumASP.
