Question

Finding web host/domain registrar

Oct 17, 2013 5:28AM PDT

I am a graphic designer looking for a reliable, service-oriented, cost effective company that can host my site, register my domain name and provide a few email addresses (5-10). I've read posts suggesting that I consider multiple providers for each function, but prefer the simplicity of one stop shopping. Any ideas/recommendations welcome! In particular, does anyone have experience with in motion hosting? Thanks very much.

Sounds expensive.

Service isn't free or included today. I may upset you but I've seen folk lambast providers over issues that the web master should be tackling.

My opinion is that folk are expecting this stuff to be as easy as using an iPad. It's not there yet.

Will meet your needs. I know someone who has their website hosted there and they haven't had any problems other than it going down for a couple minutes every now and then, which I think is normal for a shared host for that kind of price.
