I was also looking for a new provider & narrowed it down to Hostinger, my old internet provider (1980's) http://homepage.eircom.net/~lensman/Index.htm supplied free webspace for creating your own site but that's gone once you switch providers, I also used freeservers.com , that was free but the amount of adds became unbearable, either way I've forgotten the passwords for both sites & they lie there gathering dust, I'll have to check a few more reviews about Hostinger before I decide.

I just received a notice, out of the blue, that the hosting provider I have 
been using for many years for the frozenlight.eu site is closing at the end of 
this year. So now I need to find a new hosting provider for that web site, and 
a couple of other sites and domains I have with the same provider. Any 
recommendations on hosting providers in Europe? The existing provider has a 
deal with another Dutch provider which promises to migrate the web site for 
free if I sign up with them, but I am not familiar with that particular company 
and would prefer a big-name provider.

Also, a really dumb question: when I do a whois search on one of the domains I registered 
through those guys, greatpix.eu (but I just use the domain, no hosting in this case), the 
registrar is a different company. So even though I bought the domain through the company that 
is closing, is the domain “safe”, or do I still need to do something with it?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Cheers,
Nathan
