I guess I would probably count good or best if it means my needs so it is hard to generalize. SoftWareRevue 12-29-2002, 11:38 AM Edwin makes a valid point. There is no "best" hosting company. There is only what is best for you. hostgrid 12-29-2002, 12:38 PM Try searching around on the forums, on search engines, wherever. Web hosting directories are a good place to find companies with specifications you'd like. If you have any friends who have their own domains, ask them for help. Word of mouth can help you a lot Best of luck! mtgm 12-29-2002, 02:33 PM Originally posted by Lauraa i think im gonna get a domain but i dunno what company 2 go with plz help How big is your site going to be?

As far as web hosting goes, maybe you should ask your friends who they have had good experiences with.

Sahel 12-30-2002, 04:33 PM Dude i guess you are looking for " The Best Domain Registrar ". RegisterFly is a good one or Enom, Inc. RossMAN 12-31-2002, 02:23 AM Your thread title says hosting but your post says domain. A few questions: 1) Are you looking for recommendations for a domain registar and/or webhosting company? If you're looking for a domain registrar then I highly recommend NameCheap.com (http://www.namecheap.com/). 2) What's your monthly or annual budget? 3) If you're looking for webhosting, how much MB/GB bandwidth do you need? eddy2099 12-31-2002, 02:54 AM Originally posted by RossMAN Your thread title says hosting but your post says domain. Well, it supposed this is the first time the person is hosting a web site and thus the confusion. Probably assumed that you register a name and then you host it there. It is true that a number of domain name registrar provides free or paid hosting as an additional service when they register the domain and hence the confusion. We know that domain names are portable but that might not all be clear to the newbies and some times, web hosts may provide the 'full service' by registering the domain name for the client upon signing up for a web hosting account. So it is probably easy to get confused if you are new at it. |
