[clownstep]

anybody have recommendations? I've heard people say that many hosting companies claim to be offshore and really are not?

What are you looking for, why, and how much do you want to spend.

Surf for US$1/month hosting services and forget wondering where they are from (I couldn't care less, as a matter of f*ck/t). If you can't afford that, I'll start crying.

I don't want to spend more than the going rates, just want to be sure the servers are offshore.

What's "offshore"? I guess you're being 'americocentric' -- is the UK/Australia/EU "offshore" enough? Or you looking for something out of the jungles?

Find the registrar for desired country's TLD and see if they've got recommended partnerships/hosting companies/whatever.

Katz Global treats me very well. Foreshore for high-volume stuff on my own machinery.

This just really depends on what you are doing... and how "offshore" you have to be to protect your self. PM me, I may have some solutions.

I hear hosting prices are pretty OK in India.

cheapvps.co.uk has vps servers in the UK. They are cheap and easy.

what exactly are the reasons for wanting offshore hosting servers. i mean, i can recommend a few but for the most part need to know a little more to give you a more accurate suggestion.

some global hosts however won't reach everyone on their internet if they are block incoming traffic from a particular country... I know here in the US many larger hosts will block out China as it seems we get a lot of attacks from there.
