MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Hi Guys
Could someone help me with the best/cheapest way to Register and domain name and host/build a MTB related website. I don't know where to start. I have looked at go daddy which looks good value year 1 but price goes up year 2.

Registration, I use 123.reg. Used for years, can't fault them.
Used Fasthosts for years they seem ok for registration.
For building I'm old school using Dreamweaver but these days every seems to use Wordpress to good effect 🙂
Use wordpress.
I am busy populating a many hundred page site with it, and it is rather clever (with a couple of plugins) at 'connecting' topics and information.
Did look at wordpress but couldn't work out how easy/hard creating a website would be.
Cheers will looking in to 123 and fasthost
I separate everything to avoid all in one basket. i.e. domain registration, email, website hosting or shopping cart.
Yes, you have to pay for all of them or get them provided by your web hoster but I just feel that someone offering everything is promising too much. Well, that's my opinion anyway.
[b]Domain registrar[/b] - [url= https://iwantmyname.com/ ]iwantmyname[/url] (domain name specialist nothing more - very easy to deal with and they hide your identity like your full address)
[b]Email[/b] - [url= https://www.thexyz.com/webmail/ ]thexyz webmail[/url] (webmail only and you can custom whatever web address you want very easy. I just informed my domain registrar to point to Thexyz webmail)
[b]
Website hosting[/b] - [url= http://virb.com/ ]Virb[/url] (yet to decide but I like the nice simple templates and the price is reasonable for me).
[b]Shopping cart [/b]- yet to decide.
I can migrate etc all the above anytime I want to retain flexibility if I want to change in future.
