Hosting Options
My niece phoned yesterday to pick my brain about hosting. Seems she and her mom, (my sister), have gone to a seminar and are excited about a web site idea. I didn’t have much time to prepare, but here’s a list of options I would recommend;
1. Shop around online, read sites, and read stuff ABOUT these hosting companies. Their own words might be fluffed.
2. Narrow down to the best two or three choices, and if you can’t decide clearly, use the ChooseIt tool which is described and linked to from ChooseIt! Remember to check out their support services.
A. Choice: Get a SiteBuildIt! web business package. It comes with domain, guides, and lots of excellent help. If you follow that, you are bound to get high rankings and make a nice income. SiteBuildIt! (If you don’t understand something, use the contact info at Questions?
B. Choice: Check with me! I’ve set up three packages at good prices, and if you know me, you know that I would do my best for you. Each package has unlimited ftp, email, lists, SQL (databases), and sub-domains. Access to your own CPanel administration area, and the whole list of goodies in Fantastico.
Basic is 100 MB with 1 GB bandwidth for $12/yr - New Start Special is $10/yr.
Double is 200 MB with 2 GB bandwidth for $24/yr - New Start Special is $20/yr.
Bouquet is 500 MB with 2 GB bandwidth for $50/yr - New Start Special is $48/yr.
C. Choice: Get a small shared hosting package for your site (small is now plenty big enough for 50 sites or more! Shared means they will have other clients on the same computer as you). Proceed cautiously, and learn as you go.
