Hopefully
by now you have found out why its important
to firstly chose and then pay
less for a unique website domain name.
Now it
is time to find out how to pay less for the
actual building, designing and hosting of
your actual website.
Low
cost or free website building and hosting?
There are now many
business website hosting companies who
offer quality low cost website building
tools and website hosting services which
means that there are also many ways to
build a website for less than it would
cost to have someone else build it for
you.
There
are also many ways to produce
a website for free, however
it is important at the outset to spend
just a few hours to check out all of your
available options and ask questions about
what is actually on offer.
Changing
your host after you have built and
optimised your website could cost you many
hours, days & even weeks to put right.
Decide
where and with who your going to entrust
with your website hosting.
-
Who
offers the best free website tools ?
-
What
is the bandwidth allowance ?
-
Can
CGI (Common Gateway Interfaces) such
as a
blog
or
a forum be integrated into your site ?
Who
offers good and easy to use search
engine optimisation tools
to help promote your website ?
Is
there a limit to the amount of pages you
can build and have hosted ?
Does
it cost extra for email
services and contact
forms?
Do
they allow website or webpage
re-directing in case you decide to move
your content to another part of your
website or indeed to a new hosting
service ?
These
are just a few of the questions you need
to ask and a good idea would be to write a
list of the benefits and disadvantages of
particular website & hosting providers
so that you can compare them when your
finished checking.
When you
start a search for a website host it is
sometimes hard to remember who offers
what. With that in mind we have made it
easier for you to remember and compare the
various hosting plans.
