Can someone give me the name of a domain host? I would like to start building a web page. Also if there is one for free that would suit me best. But any help in this is appreciated.
If anyone has a link to some easy to understand directions about this that would be great too. Thank you.
Thanks, Joe, for posting this question. I was just today charged with the responsibility of locating an external server host for the web site I maintain at a nonprofit, educational partnership here in East Tennessee, USA. I knew I could search the discussions at CR 2.0 and find a wealth of advice. Sure enough, I did! I now have a list of about 10 hosts to investigate (as opposed to doing a Google search and sorting through a hundred thousand hits).
I just wanted you to know how your question has stimulated such an important knowledgebase from which others will benefit!
I use hostgator. I have multiple domains and for less than $10 I have tons of space for all my domains. The service is great and reliable. I love Fantastico to quickly install a lot of apps.
I host my website on Dreamhost and registered my domains through GoDaddy. Dreamhost has been down for me 3 times these past 4 weeks; I'm considering moving my content to MediaTemple.
