Starting a .com website.

December 13, 2006 10:50am CST
I will need hosting and a dot com for my photography website. Can anyone tell me where the cheapest place to buy hosting is and a domain? I’m a bit of a novice so could you please tell me what else this entails. I have a website hosted on geocities and have basic html knowledge and a layout/coding for my new website.

Hi! I've been checking out your suggestions. godaddy.com looks pretty good. Looks like i can get the domain lindsaymcwilliamsphotography.com for $8.95/yr and get free hosting worth $96. What do you reckon?

The places I would go include godaddy.com or netfirms. I subscribe to a tech podcast and the these two companies have been sponsors of the podcast. The podcasters are very tech savvy and straightforward, so I don't think they'd accept sponsorship from a company they didn't feel was good. Godaddy is pretty cheap; I haven't checked out the netfirms pricing.

Well,here we go. Free webhosting: www.serverheaven.com www.freehostia.com www.110mb.com Best webhosting: www.webhostingherald.com -here you will find a lot of information on webhosting. I think the best is webdepartment.com For domains try www.godaddy.com A lot of websites give you a free domain with every hosting package you get from them.Try www.netfirms.com

Here you can get a website with a domain name like linzmcwilliams.ws and 10 e-mail addresses for $10 a month. And if you can get other people to buy the hosting/web site package (just put a banner on your site ;-) ) then it won't cost you anything because they give you $1 for everyone you sell; every month. It's easy to get 10 people looking for a website/domain name package. http://website.ws/nutnnice2
