    Business Domain Name

    Hi

    I'm looking into setting up a business domain name and have an assocaite email and website with it.

    Only really looking for a pretty basic website that provides information it does not need to have bells and whistles. It will be more an online business synopsis and contact info.

    Does anyone know any providers that they would recommend ? And what sort of costs I'm looking at for the year for the service ?

    Thanks
    Gav

    Use google apps for domain and email, for website, I can't really recommend anything that would be cheap AND good.

        I use Google Apps for my email etc. My site is hosted by 5quid. Very cheap, and good email type customer support. You just need somebody to by the name through. I used my ISP Eclipse.

          Domain registration services usually also offer mailboxes and basic hosting, which sounds like all you need.

          Personally I use 123-reg.co.uk for domains and mailboxes. Their home page has info on prices for each service.

          There are probably other similar service providers that others recommend over 123-reg, but I don't.
          Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

            I would recommend (and use myself) Vidahost £17 a year for a domain name and basic hosting which includes email addresses. I might even have a 10% voucher code somewhere too if you go for it

            I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

              WSMS. Vidahost, 5 domains and Starter Web Hosting for £150 ish for 3 years.

              I recently "purchased" this ready to get some sort of web presence up and running.

                I use and recommend these guys in Manchester. I have used them for about 13 years now and not only are they cheap, but give very good customer service.

                  Strange, their website boasts of them celebrating 10 years of hosting!

                    I use superb who are US based. They are good value, especially if you expect a lot of traffic, and a pleasure to deal with.
