bargain web host with bargain price on 35+ email addresses, indesign help
Ok well i am looking for a good host, that is at a good price as well, and i need 35+ email inboxes. so for example, tdan@example.com, fttford@example.com, etc. i need 35 or more different ones. So i was wondering if someone could tell me a few good webhosts at good prices that also have a good deal on their email address. I have seen a few that have like unlimited email addresses, but usually those are really expensive, and gives me way too much space and stuff then i need. The website isn't going to be big at all, maybe three different pages or so, we may expand later on, but in the beggining we just want a homepage with info on it and pesonalized email addresses.
Also, we have indesign cs2, and i think if i read it corectly, i can just use that to make the webpage(s), im good with indesign, but in terms of buttons that go to links or the other pages, i will have to figure that out, so the question is really here, can i just use indesign cs 2 to make the page?
suggestions and answers please!
Thanks alot!

If your e-mail is important to you, I would re-consider your budget and idea of "paying too much". $7.95-$15.95 per month should do you well.

Hello,
There are plently of hosts out there that will give you unlimited mail boxes for $15 to $20 dollars per month. I would reccomend paying at least this much to be sure you experiance good uptime and support.
Do you have any preferences in control panels?

15-20 i think is fine. In terms of bandwitch and stuff, as i said we dont need much, we are at the most having like just a home page, and some point we may upgrade and put the entire newspaper on it (this is for a school newspaper), but starting off we need like a home page, we really dont need much, it isnt going to be too fancy. In terms of control panels, i dont really know, something farely easy, im good with computers but all the internet hosting, html, etc. i am a big newb at.
I really dont know how much bandwith i will need, i mean this website would probably only get 1 or 2 hits a day, its not going to be much. If we end up promoting it alot and start putting stories on there, then we just need a host that will let us upgrade. So bascially we need the email address mostly, but we want to get the domain and host as well.

thanks again, WHAT ABOUT STARTLOGIC.COM?Last edited by lbjandai; 08-28-2006 at 10:07 PM.

Be aware that most web hosting review/directory listing sites usually rank the companies who pay them the most up higher.
****** if I remember was into overselling.. to a fairly scary extent (at least IMO) so personally I wouldn't go with them.
I've been with AxisHost for nearly a month now (gonna post a review of them when the months rolls around) and am very happy with them so far. You could give them a shot, their smallest plan is $6 a month with unlimited email. 750MB of space should be more than enough for your 3 web pages, so..SuperUnlimitedHosting!

I would look for a little higher budget company, that's going to give you a dedicated IP with rDNS setup correctly that way if somebody else messes up and gets a lower shared IP blacklisted your more safe.

If all you need is a simple site in plain HTML, I would recommend to use Fireworks and Dreamweaver, you can make a nice design in fireworks and then make the site in dreamweaver.
Good luck!

There is nothing wrong with using indesign by adobe for basic sites and it's a lot easier then dreamweaver if you are just starting.

see here on WHT you can't recommend yourself per the rules.
What I always recommend is look around for a few host, then do a search on the host you think fit your needs, maybe send a few sales email to the host you like or add them to your post asking others what they think.
What you want to watch out for is the large overselling companies.██ Robert Merrihue - President/CEO

I saw ******'s cage a few months ago... that was quite scary, the sheer poor organization of everything. So whilst having not used them and being unable to comment, this would definitely be a concern of mine if I was in your shoes.
