[clue-talk] Hosting recommendations?

[YES NOPE9]

Domain names should not cost more that $9 per year ( single year  
updates )
Hosting a site should not cost more than $10/month if that.  You  
probably can get a
domain name thrown in for free.
If you want to piggyback off my ISP service at IXwebhosting, I can  
give you webspace, reasonable bandwidth and email for
$60/year.

p.s. My DNS host sold off their entire DNS division to some company in
the UK (made re-registration "fun" when they didn't put some CNAMES in
to get from their old server names/websites to the new company!), and I
wouldn't recommend them anymore, but I'm grandfathered in on the
original natetech.com domain + a few other features they have, for
$9.95/yr.  The other domains are $12.95, but get a scaled discount for
paying multiple years in advance down to $10.95, I think?

Most every hoster has a DNS registrar they either deal with, or they are
one themselves. I'd wait until you pick a hosting site, and then see if
they do it, first.  Often they'll do it for next to nothing if you're
signing up to use them for hosting.

If web hosting is a commodity, DNS registration is REALLY a commodity
these days...
