Newb question regarding domain registration
well, i want MrYid.com, which is totally unclaimed, as i cna tell. though i do have a really sweet server, i do not have nearly enough badwidth to host a site (im on 56k... meh) so i would like to have outside hosting. so, could someone link me to a site that can do this? i know plenty of places that offer sites on their own domain, but i want my own!
let me know, thanks |
if you have your own server, you may be looking for a place to house this server? look into server co-location.
two webhosts that i've dealt with and have had success are rackshack.net and cihost.com if you want to register your domain with a registrar, look at dotster.com |
Server collocation can be costly - it's probably cheaper for you to host the box at home with a 384/1.5 DSL connection. If you want the box up 99+% of the time (which may be a problem for a typical home), you're going to have to spend the $$$ for collocation.
There are places offering inexpensie collocation but they always have a catch - usually bandwidth. They may only offer cheap 1U of rack space which means you need to buy a new case. Probably not worth it. Good luck. |
I've used besthost1 for years for both my domains with no major complaints.

I don't use dreamhost, but i've heard they can be very good for those not experianced in the technical details of a site.<br>dreamhost<br>
Start small with a company like thisd and only change when you need better / upgraded resources. |
i can't say for hosting, but i know for domain management, i use domainmonger.com
i've been using it for almost a year now and have had no complaints. they offer hosting packages as well you may want to check out. but like i said, i've never used their hosting solutions. good luck with that. and let us know where you ended up hosting with. good hosts are a nice thing to be aware of. you can never have too many good references. |
You may not want to mention what domain you want, or else some ass (like me) will register it, add put it up for sale to the higest bidder. As to registars.... I use gandi.net
