Laine Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'm looking to build up a webpage for myself but it's been so long since I've had to do this stuff I forget what I should be looking for. Any tips, hints, suggestions would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed #5 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Laine, take a look at BlueHost.com They're really good, tech support is excellent (with a really good attitude!) Price is easily comparable to most, lower than many. (( Theoretically unlimited bandwidth / storage ... I haven't pushed either with my 3 sites they host for me. )) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyshqa Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 If you're just looking to make a small personal website for fun, maybe take a look at weebly.com, webs.com, etc as they host sites for free and are really easy to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I know a goos host but would have to be doing your site yourself ;-) . Message if interested m8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laine Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'd like to keep the host Canadian so it's a little easier cost wise. I've actually looked up the top hosts in Canada and got a few suggestions and the sites also include pre-made templates which, after so long out of web designing, I kind'a need. Marc - thanks for the offer but building a site myself would be a disaster I haven't done it in almost 8 years and forget everything besides. If you're just looking to make a small personal website for fun, maybe take a look at weebly.com, webs.com, etc as they host sites for free and are really easy to build. Actually the site is for my kennel; finally decided on a name and have my logo and all. Really it's a place to put up my stuff about the dogs, pedigrees, training, pictures, etc and so on. Since I'd like to eventually do some sort of dog sport/event with my dogs, having a place to put their accomplishments for others to see will be nice.

NicTurtle Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I use Bluehost for my personal site. Never had a problem with them. Switched to Wix once and that was a mistake. Back to Bluehost and happy again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome Collins Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Are you just looking for a domain or hosting as well? From the previous posts it looks like you're looking for both... I bought my domain from godaddy.com and found a free host to link it to. Deluxe host is the one I use (dhost.info) but I believe you have to fill out an application to host your site there, though they probably approve everyone and you get lots of storage and bandwidth for free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
