Start a business with free hosting Wednesday, April 8, 2009

You may be wondering how to get your domain name, and how much you should pay. If you have done a search for absolutely free domain names, you may be discouraged at your results, because usually you don’t get something for nothing.
You may be wondering how that can be true since you receive offers for completely free domain names with an accompanying website all of the time. The truth is, the companies that offer totally free domain names and websites with no fees are usually offering you a package that includes these items at no additional charge. What they do charge you for is web hosting, which you will need in order to get your website past the design stage. And while there are no fees for your domain name or website, there is going to be a registration and web hosting fee to consider. Absolutely free domain names do not exist, it is a simple fact.
This is not a bad thing, however, because if you are incapable of creating your own website from scratch and you do not have thousands of dollars to pay a designer to build one for you, then you are going to need to find a company that offers all of these things to you, and there are plenty out there too. So, you aren’t going to get what you need totally for free, but you will be able to find web hosting sites that offer a package that will completely cover all of your needs for your online business.

When you select a more free hosting Tuesday, April 7, 2009

With this concept there are no fees for hosting or the domain name, registration is easy and quick, and absolutely free. So what's the catch? How can they just offer this for free with no banner ads to pay the bills?
The reality here is that you get these things free but your limited on bandwidth, and disk space. For a basic site, including a business site this is a great way to get going absolutely free. Their hopes are that as you start to see success, more traffic to your site, and need to expand to a real hosting package, that you will upgrade to their economical paid packages.

They bank on the idea that by giving away free domain and hosting you will get comfortable using the service and they build customer loyalty. Why would you go elsewhere when you can just upgrade and not have to move or change anything? For many the free account is enough to get their financial ball rolling and once the site generates some coin, paying for a better hosting package is like rolling their profits- that cost them nothing to acquire in the first place- into an upgrade. People, grateful for the charity and chance to generate income without wagering anything first, will gladly opt to use them for their upgrade needs.
