I'm hoping someone in the forums will be able to help. I'll start with some background.
I am a web developer, and I work in a company where most of my work goes on to servers that are looked after by someone else, so I just write stuff and upload it where I'm told to.
However, I have recently been thinking of doing some freelance work and have about 2 or 3 friends that have asked me to create websites for them. So, for the freelance work, I have created a web site which will hold a portfolio of my work, and generally present myself.
I have been thinking of how I will get this website, and the other projects online. I have a computer in the house which is run as a web server and has been used for development work (while I'm at home) for quite a while. I would like to connect this to the Internet and host the work on there.
My question is, can anybody recommend a decent provider in the UK for an Internet connection suitable for running a web server?
Thanks
