Which web hostsing is better?

I want to purchase a domain name and web hosting also. I had purchased a domain from Go Daddy but never hosted there. I am thinking of Go Daddy or also heard about Yahoo Small Business. There is also Bluehost.





Which is best. I know Bluehost and Yahoo gives free domain, but GoDaddy is only $4 a month. Bluehost is like $6.95 and Yahoo is $9 for first two months.





Thanks all.

depends on what you plan to do with the site - the trafic, how much content there will be, how dynamic that content is, etc.





These programs can be quite limiting in scope the bigger you go.





You should outline what your expected needs will be and potential traffic, then tailor your hosting needs to meet that and beyond.

godaddy is a lot better, it has lots of benefits. I use it right now and its great.
Reply:I use bluehost myself. I havn%26#039;t had any problems and they are a lot of help when need be. Actually the CEO isn%26#039;t happy with answering the phone in two minutes, hes want it done quicker.





he does have a blog you can read, most of it is related to his business, some of it does talk about the utah jazz (its a utah company.)





His blog is www.mattheaton.com kinda helps get into his head and what he expects of his company.
Reply:I have one site hosted on Go Daddy, one on Yahoo, and one on Microsoft. All work well. I like Yahoo%26#039;s site builder tools.
Reply:Begin with setting up your own webpage as your current internet provider will provide free hosting as discussed below.





If you are currently a paid Internet subscriber, you are entitled to a %26quot;homepage%26quot; which often contains simple navigation and editing tools. And if you use the Netscape browser, the built-in Composer feature is a superior HTML authoring tool which is totally free. You can easily generate a full-blown website as a Homepage.





Nevertheless, the %26quot;homepage%26quot; URL is likely to be %26quot;http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscribe... name%26quot; and that URL can easily be overwritten via a redirection service, i.e., %26quot;mydomain.com%26quot; which allows you to link any registered domain name to %26quot;mask%26quot; another website. For example, should you type in the %26quot;domain name,%26quot; you will be immediately transported to the homepage and the hompage URL of http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscriber... a homepage URL which will be masked by the domain name. And the charge for the redirection service [even at godaddy.com] is normally FREE.





When you acquire a domain name, connect it using a redirection service [as discussed above] and submit/publish the domain name on major search engines/directories in order for Net surfers to find your website.





Good luck!
