Do you think this is a good domain site? by welshboy222 on 07-05-2006 at 04:15 PM

Do you think this is a good domain site for my website?
www.domain.com

$35 for one year .com registration... WAY to expensive.


RE: Do you think this is a good domain site? by welshboy222 on 07-05-2006 at 04:40 PM

MenthiX is correct.

Domains that are .com, .org and .net are all $35 a year and that is very expensive indeed.

My little brother has Godaddy for his hosting and he's constantly moaning about it.

Dreamhost is not good for forum hosting or a MSIG... U'll hyave to pay to get transfered to a server that can handle it...

But I don't know if they have changed.

Wj why is godaddy bad or why doesn't your bro like it?

what?! dreamhost is plenty powerful enough to handle a forum, and they're not going to make you pay to move to a better server...

One thing I don't understand... n00bish question i know...

Registering a domain on dreamhost will be just the 'name' or would i have also some space for website hosting?


RE: Do you think this is a good domain site? by welshboy222 on 07-06-2006 at 05:29 AM

If you buy a domain you get hosting with it the least expensive is $10 a month and you get
20GB disk.


RE: Do you think this is a good domain site? by Voldemort on 07-06-2006 at 05:39 AM

It depends on the plan you get
you can get the domain only
or domain + hosting
like get the domain[buy it] and some free hosting from someone on the forums for free :P

Registering the domain would just mean that the domain name is yours now. There's no hosting with it, so you can use it however you like. If you sign up for Dreamhost web hosting, you get one free domain registration anyway.
