September 11, 201114 yr I don't know much about web hosting, but I'm in sure of a inexpensive host. Does anyone have any tips on what to look for? Or any recommendations for that matter? What I plan to be hosting is a Movable Type blog which is perl based.
September 11, 201114 yr Are you using specific blogging software? Many hosting companies have a pretty basic shared hosting package for $5-$10 per month which would probably be suitable for your needs. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
September 11, 201114 yr So from the reqs page, you'd need PHP, Perl CGI, and mysql. Most basic hosting packages should offer those. So for example, here: http://www.godaddy.com/hosting/web-hosting.aspx?ci=9009 you'd need to go with the Deluxe plan over the Economy one because their economy plan doesn't include perl.

September 11, 201114 yr Author Ok cool, I'll keep that in mind and that GoDaddy plan doesn't look to bad either.

September 15, 201114 yr I use nearlyfreespeech personally. Really nice if it's going to be a site with a small amount of traffic on it. You pretty much just pay based off of how much bandwidth you use.
