Obtain Web Hosting

A Web Host is a company that stores your web site for you on their server.

Reliability is the most important thing to consider when choosing a Web Hosting company.

You want a web hosting company that has an uptime of at least 99%.

Web Hosting Costs:

Set-up fee

This is the fee that some web host companies charge to set up your web hosting.   It's a one time charge and it's usually very cheap or free.

Monthly Cost

This is the cost that web hosting companies charge per month to keep your web site on there server.   It's your biggest consideration when choosing a web hosting company.   Monthly costs start at about $4 and can go up into the hundreds.   I wouldn't recommend paying any more than $8 per month unless you've got a website with very special features.

Domain Name Fee

The Cost for your Domain Name.   It's usually yearly (can be bi-yearly).   Your domain name doesn't have to be purchased from the same company as your Website hosting.   Domain Name fees are usually under $15 per year.   If your chosen domain name isn't available (someone else owns it) you'll have to pay a lot more for it.

Free Website Hosting

Free Website Hosting is not advised for many reasons.   Free hosting is supported by advertisements which are usually inserted at the top of your web site.   These ads may also be in the form of pop-ups.   Also, the free website hosting companies have a very low uptime rate and very poor (usually none) customer service.   When it comes to customer service, you should definitely have 24/7 availability.

Overall, free website hosting gives a very unprofessional look to your site.
