Since you are not asking about the forums, there is no difference. Both services offer the same plans, and the only difference are the forums. Here at Astahost, we deal with a wider range of technical topics, and some people might find it difficult to post.

I was little bit confused by seeing the plan details on the homepages of both the sites! For astahost, its showing as: QUOTE NO ADS, BANNERS, POPUPS! Web Hosting Control Panel MS Frontpage WebSite Hosting PHP, CGI, Perl, MySQL ImageMagick Support Unlimited Email and FTP Accounts Fast, Free 24/7 Tech Support Web Site Hosting Help Forums 3 Web Based E-Mail Programs TCL, SSH 99.5% Uptime Guarantee and for trap17, its showing as: QUOTE 1. Sub-Domain or Domain Hosting 2. Cpanel (latest release updated automatically) 3. Fantastico 2 4. 50 - 250 mb space [ 50 mb provided initially ] 5. 500 - 20,000 mb Bandwidth 6. Ip Address [ Shared ] 7. Unlimited Sub-Domains 8. Unlimited Parked-Domains 9. Unlimited Addon-Domains 10. Unlimited MySQL Databases 11. Unlimited Email Accounts 12. Unlimited Email Forwarders 13. Unlimited Mailing Lists 14. Unlimited Email filters 15. Unlimited Ftp Accounts 16. PERL version 5.8.X 17. TCL 18. TOMCAT 19. JSP 20. PHP version 4.3.X [ Safe Mode OFF with FULL GD Support ] 21. MySQL version 4.0.18-standard 22. File Manager 23. FTP Manager 24. All this absolutely FREE and much much MORE!! I thought, trap17 gives more advanced options than astahost  Thats why asked about the plans!  And one more Question If I request for hosting with a subdomain ( for checking the services here )can I able to change that sub domain name to my own domain personal domain name!

Nope, the features are the same. What's more, I think Asta has better servers (I seem to recall someone mentioning it).

Yes, you can do that. You can either change your default domain name (subdomain -> domain), which costs credits, or park the new domain name. Either way, you have to set the domain nameservers to ns1.astahost.com and ns2.astahost.com |

Either way, you have to set the domain nameservers to ns1.astahost.com and ns2.astahost.com But the problem is whther Astahost provides the options to change the MX records? / Managed DNS service Because I need to use Google Hosted as my email service provider!  My present server does not provide that option! But they are giving one IP for the hosting! So (presently) instead of changing the Name servers at my domain registrar, I had changed only Address (A) Records to poing to the hosting server, so that I can use Google hosted for my mails by editing MX records at domain registrar! |

I thought about subscribing to Trap17 when I saw they had the same plans, but I found the community a little immature, and decided not to go ahead with it, even being easier to keep hosting credits. Astahost did fit more my forum needs.
I just wished we had a bigger graphic artists base here... Let's just say I'd have a bit more to do when hanging around here. ;D |

I though about doing that when I bought my domain at GoDaddy, but I find it better to park the domain and create a mail account through cPanel. |

I am a bit of an artist - but I hardly find time to do anything much these days. Do you have anything particular in mind with the 'artist base' here that you would want to venture out? I would be glad to help. |

Both as brilliant as each other.
I tried Trap17, but surprisingly I was more perpelexed about posting at Trap17 than here, partly because I ahd about 60 different browsers up, and other posts. I think AstaHost sounds more proffessional so I decided to try this out of the two recommended by my friend, and I ahve amd the right choice, dfinitely, I hope I won't regret saying that !!! Cross fingers. Anyway, I don't need "billions" of features so i don't particularly mind which host. |
