Freeway and Expression Engine Site Where to host in UK

Freeway
1

Its been a long time since Ive been here and everything has changed. I’ve still got my site running on Freeway 5.5 and Expression Engine and all is well. I did try Freeway 7 but could get it to work. I have now been hit with a renewal from provider of 20 years that is three times the amount it used to be. $360 last year $128! What provider do people use here in the UK thats good. I only have two sites digital-watch.com and vintaglcd.com that use both Freeway and Expression Engine So I need SQL. Any help greatly received as its pretty nerve wracking after all this time. Also if anyone has migrated a site using the this setup and tips would be greatly received. Thank you in advance Adam

Hi Adam

I’ve recently moved my Freeway Pro 7.1.4 sites to HawkHost Fast & Secure Cloud Web Hosting at Hawk Host as my previous host had become too expensive.

They moved everything for me and it all worked flawlessly. This included a site with a very large picture database using MySQL https://www.transpixed.com/

To see many hosting companies compared I’d recommend going to https://www.reviewhell.com/

Hope this helps

I used https://ineedwebhosting.uk

and then imported the whole of my website into ‘Sparkle’ as an interim measure before

Freeway gets up and running.

Thank you to all replies. I ended up going with clook. I have to say they have been fantastic, moved my massive site and smaller shop site across and set it up, and kept helping as I tested it for bugs and bugged them. Freeway is still uploading all the files and i’ve even cleaned up some of my code and clear a load of junk in the folders. Hopefully I can keep running the sites in Freeway & EE in the future.
