Can anyone suggest a cheap web hosting/Domain reg plan ?
Could you suggest a domain reg / web hosting /site building plan suitable for a small business which does not expect loads of traffic.The site is basically just a few pages of a ' Pricelist' viewers will scroll through.

If that's all you have, then my free hosting plan would definitely be best for you. http://hoston.us/?page=free

Where is the best place to get web hosting and a domain name?
what is the best place to get web hosting, domain name that has the best website templates that are easy to set up, and also is very affordable.

► Startlogic is extremely affordable (like $5 a month with yearly plan) and has unlimited domain hosting. You can do all in one there, domains, hosting package, unlimited bandwidth... to compare hosts I would use http://www.interkeys.com/tophosts to get one for a few bucks a month with unlimited GIG bandwidth and the rich with features its up to you how developed a site you want and if you want to use your own domain name

Where can I find the cheapest web hosting and domain names?
I want to host bulk domain names or get free hosting. I know that this probably does not exist. I want to host 5 domain names on one hosting plan.

Have you tried http://nicepricesites.com/ ? They actually have free web hosting and you can upload to your site with FTP. I wouldn't recommend that you use their domain names because you always want a unique domain name. I do use the free hosting for one of my wordpress blogs. I have my other blogs hosted there also along with the domain names. Hope this helps. TG

how to start my own web hosting and domain selling buisness?
how can i start a domain selling and web hosting buisness like this from home. do i have to buy domains to be able to sell them and how do i get a license to sell domains...and the most important thing if i start my own web hosting buisness how many servers would i need...etc

Mmmmm..... sounds like you are really starting from scratch, and I would recommend you get a bit more experience with the domain/hosting environment before selling to others as you will be called on to support problems, and you want to be able to communicate with both your clients and your suppliers. If you are trying to go for the 'cheap and cheerful' market, then I'd caution against it as there are a lot of players out there who can provide very cheap hosting. To make a few bucks, you are going to have to charge more, so what is the advantage to them using you instead of another service? In practice, it is very easy. 1. Buy a cheap 'reseller' hosting account. There are many 'reseller' packages available from different places (avoid digitalvisionhosting.com as my experience has been they are too unreliable). These usually allow you to host multiple domains for a flat monthly/annual fee. For example if you have a 25 domain hosting package for $200 a year, then each domain will be costing you $8 a year (Whether there are actually any domains being hosted or not). You can then sell individual domain hosting for whatever you think you can get, and the difference will be your gross profit. A reseller account usually gives you a 'Web Host Manager' where you set up 'packages' (which control the amount of resources you make available), and 'accounts' (which you make for each domain that is hosted) which have their own 'Control Panel'. 2. Domains Domains are cheap on the whole. It would seem pointless to buy domains before you know what anyone wants, so you would purchase a domain when you know what is wanted. Domains are registered with a 'Registrar'. There are many domain registration sites. You need to check that a domain is available before you can buy it. I would think it unlikely you will be able to make any money selling domains as you would have sell them more expensively than you buy them, and the client can probably get them cheaper elsewhere, (unless you can buy in bulk which I would think unlikely, at least to start with). Also, you do not need to buy domains to host them. The Registrar control the Name Servers (DNS) of the domain. To host the domain, the domain DNS records need to point to your hosting DNS Servers, which is easy for the domain owner to do. However, there can be limitations, especially on the 'free' domains which are often offered if you buy a cheap hosting account for a fixed period (often a year). The Hosting provider usually 'owns' the domain but lets you use it, and locks the domain so it cannot be transferred. The economy goes something like this: Sell a hosting package for a year. Say is costs you $10 and you charge $80. You buy the domain for $10. Gross profit to you of $60. You 'own' the domain so you can control where it is hosted (you want it on your hosting of course), and prevents the client from moving to another host, thereby losing you an account. This forces the client to stay with your hosting as you can refuse to allow it to be hosted elsewhere. I personally do not like this practice, but it is very common for so called 'free' domains. As you can see, it is not really free as such, but that's business I guess. I won't try and go into all the issues, but you have to bear in mind that if the client does not want to renew the domain and your hosting, then you will be left with a domain that is not wanted, and still have to pay the renewal fee, or let it expire and it will become available for registration again on a first come first serve basis. Other issues: If you are going to host domains, then you will likely have clients who do not know what theya re doing, or screw things up, and you will be expected to support them. If you do not, then you are unlikely to get a good reputation, so consider your terms and conditions very carefully, and get some experience before you go for it. It is easy to do if you know what you are doing, and use the 'reseller' approach. If you want to go into buyig your own servers etc, then you will up the costs and effort, and is this something your are competent to do yet? My advice is, get familiar with the environment of buying and hosting domains in a small way to make sure you can handle it comfortably. After that, it is more a less of question of scaling up. Remember there is a lot of competition around, and you are not going to take on the big boys? So you will be a smaller 'added value' type of reseller, so what value can you bring to your enterprise and attract others to part with the money to you and not someone else? I'm not cautioning against it, but I get the impression you do not know very much about this, and I suggest you need to know a lot more before you embark on something like this. But don't let that put you off if you are really serious. Good luck!

I just became a reseller with makemoneysellingdomainnames to resell web hosting and domain names?
I just became a reseller with makemoneysellingdomainnames to resell web hosting and domain names. I joined because I build a decent amount of websites for my own use. I was wondering why a lot of webmasters and IT people aren't in the reseller business. I drive a taxi and talk with a lot of IT people and almost none of them take advantage of controlling the cost for web hosting. Isn't this strange? Any comments welcome.

I think you're wrong when you write, "I was wondering why a lot of webmasters and IT people aren't in the reseller business." In fact, an awful lot of people, including webmasters, IT professionals, and others, are in the hosting and domain reselling business. There are certainly at least "tens of thousands," and possibly many hundreds of thousands of "web-hosting" businesses out there, most run by people who also do web development work. Some professionals do this "surreptitiously," creating an apparently-separate company which they use to register and host client sites. Many do it openly, telling their clients that they own the hosting or registration company. Those professionals who do NOT resell web-hosting or domain-registration services frequently believe that their sole charge should be based on their time, not on reselling services at potentially inflated prices. In addition, some professionals choose not to resell anything other than their own services, because they recognize that over time, the level of service at most hosting and registration companies can change. Over the past 12 years, I've hosted my own and clients' web sites on several dozen different servers (including dedicated servers, colocated servers, and many shared servers), and registered domains with many different registrars. Recently, I consolidated all my registrations to a single registrar, and I also consolidated all hosting to a single provider, but it's likely that I'll move some or all of this within 12 months.

What is the difference between web hosting & domain names?
All this website stuff is confusing, do they go hand in hand? what should i get & what size if im just doing a small business site were people can order products online?

Domain name is your web address. Examples include http://www.yahoo.com http://www.google.com http://www.orbitz.com http://www.ssa.gov That web address is called domain name. It can be a .com for commercial sites, .gov for government, .org for organizations, .net and several others You get your domain name from companies such as GoDaddy.com by first checking in if the domain is available, which can be anywhere from $6.99 per year to $45 or more per year If the domain is available, you now create a website using that domain name as the address. Once you have the website done, you contact a web hosting company so they can put your website on the Web using your domain name as address. Web hosting can be anywhere from $3.99 per month to as much as $2000+ for dedicated web hosting
