Knowledge - Hosting!

So, you've got your domain name and your web site. Now you need somewhere for it to live. That's where hosting comes in. Your web site is uploaded onto your hosts servers, and is then accessible to the whole world, potentially!

And the cost is?

Hosting goes from free to whatever you want to pay. But, as with most things you get what you pay for. Free may be okay, but like anything do some research first. That's what google is for. We think it is a good idea to get your domain name with the company that is going to host your site (and you may get a better deal). If you have your domain name with one comapny, and your hosting with another then you are going to have to make sure that one points to the other. Or it wont work!

Southam Web Design use 1&1 for both hosting and domain names. You could do worse than have a look. If nothing else it will give you an idea of what to look for in another host.
