Question by Ustun Inan Insurance: Do you use a “Domain Hosting” Company to maintain your website?
I have seen web hosting companies advertised from “Free” to several hundreds dollars.
Please tell me what these companies do to earn their money?
Who do you use for “Web Hosting” and are you happy with them?

“Free” put ads on your site and make money that way, and paid charge you for it.
If you need a real website you have to buy hosting and a domain name.
I recommend one of these: http://www.hosttell.com/
Powweb has the best offer right now. It’s on a 50% sale – $ 3.88/month ($ 46.56/year), and you get a free domain from them. (like www.yourwebsite.com)
Their hosting plan includes web builder, so you can create your site just by drag and drop (without any programming), or you could install WordPress (easy, one click install from their control panel), choose a theme that you like, and start adding content.

There are many web hosting providers and you might become confused to choose which one. It is very important that you choose a good web host. Good doesn’t mean expensive. Good means reliable with great support.
Some people try to save money and choose to go with a free web host. They usually realize pretty quickly what a huge mistake that is. I’m all for free whenever possible, but free web hosting will end up costing much more than you save. The companies that offer free web hosting make their money by placing ads and unwanted stuff on your web pages.
But, let’s face it – how do you know if a web host is good or not? They all look pretty much the same and they seem like they know what they are doing, right? Well, I recommend reading reviews so that you may compare and become more familiar with the hosting companies before making a decision.
When you choose a web host, make sure they have excellent support. If you have a problem with your web site you want help now, not in a day or two.
– You will find a selection of the most credible web hosting companies on the market. Read through the reviews; check uptime and performance reports so you can make an informed choice of the best web hosting company for your website. I have many websites and and the last 3 I have published I have gone with the #1 ranked company in that website (FatCow) and I have to really say the reviews were right.
You should not pay more than 6 dollars a month for web hosting. These companies have prices that are outdated and are overcharging their customers.
Yes we are using more than thousands of domains/website and happy for more than 4 year
i use hostgator and i’m happy with it.
Free hosting will always have ads on your site. i think they get money from that.
