Setting up a website

Re: Setting up a website

Yep cPanel, rv sitebuilder pro, softaculous one click installer, cloud - pretty much everything (and more) the "big" firms offer but at like 75p a month thru £5 a month.

Our dearest plan would be for a business, that's a fiver a month and you get free dedicated SSL, cloud the lot..

Whos your provider for all this? you running VM or home server?

PM me mate, i wouldnt mind knowing for my own hosting services.

I think you'll be getting me as a customer not long after you launch.

I've never had any problems with my current host, but they can't match that type of offer.

Re: Setting up a website

I may well be interested in this new hosting service myself when it launches, as long as it can offer a competitive service. I'm becoming increasingly interested in what the AAD parent company is able to offer in many different areas. I'll be sending an email soon to the address listed on the other thread.

Me too, I will be looking with interest at it also, I am currently paying £30 a year for 4 hosted domains but I am a little restricted on diskspace and bandwidth per month.

Websites - there are thousands of opensource ones ready to just edit with your own products, I am lucky to have CS5 but it is not for everyone.

Good luck

Re: Setting up a website

I could recommend the hosting company I've been using for six years without a problem, but it wouldn't exactly be polite as the forum owner will soon be in competition with them! They are considerably more expensive than the new service will be, roughly about the same price for a month as this will be for a year, but they are good.

I was in a similar position around six years ago when I knew nothing about HTML or site building. I signed up with this service because they were supposed to have the best support. In the end, I taught myself HTML and never needed the support anyway.

If you want to learn HTML, this is the tutorial I used, all completely free -

HTML: An Interactive Tutorial - HTML Code Guide: Learn HTML Free

This is the HTML editing software I use, also free -

If you need some free templates to make it easy, there are hundreds here -

Open Source Web Design - Download free web design templates.

Or, you could use a CMS such as Wordpress, which has advantages and disadvantages. It is easy to use, but you will get bloated slow-loading code for a simple site. You will also be more vulnerable to hackers. Wordpress in its native state is extremely SEO unfriendly, as it gives every page a title such as “?123”. You can customise the permalinks to “%postname%” to overcome this.

I have personally managed to get several Wordpress pages to rank at the top of Google, although not for huge money keywords. That was also in days before the Panda and Penguin updates, although I don't think I'd have been hit too badly by these as I had genuine sites with good quality unique content.
