Looking for a minimalist webpage host...

I'm looking for a very minimalist hosting company to host my webpage (which will get much less than 5MB/month traffic) and will be able to provide me with an email address. I'm not interested in the usual "free" hosting sites: something reputable, manageable, affordable, and reliable.

Thank you very much!

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I suggest then GoDaddy.com if all you are looking for is one website. By signing up with a domain name you get free web hosting but you do get banners. They have a solid customer service department and can help you with templates or build a website for you I think for a fee. They also have a community site.

Are you sure you're only going to have one website? The reason I ask is that HostGator is about 10.00 a month to host unlimited number of domain names. Now why mention this.

Because somewhere between here and there you may have another idea for a website and if you sign up for GoDaddy on their basic one domain name plan, then that's it. That's what happened to me.

I now register my domain names at Namecheap.com for $10 a year. Then I transfer that domain name over to hostgator for $10 a month, not for each, but for all of them. Say maybe you want to set up a profile page for yourself for credibility. You'll have your website for your business and then one for you that has a: bio, projects, education, yadda yadda.

Profile webpages are good to have which you can then link to your business.

So are you sure it's only ONE website. If maybe it's not, go register that first domain name with NameCheap. Then go sign up on the "baby plan" (middle plan) for hostgator. Their customer services beats GoDaddy hands down, I know, used them both.

You can ask the dumbest questions over at hostgator and they don't care, they'll walk you through the process. I have one domain name set up on hostgator. As soon as I get a couple of different jobs that open up my spare time, I've got a half-dozen or sites I want to set up. All it will cost me is the domain name. I all ready have the host site in place.

Think about it. Limiting yourself now may hurt your creative ideas in the future.

You can't beat GoDaddy's $1.99/month hosting plan! You get everything you need and easy to use tools to create email addresses, setup domain names, etc.
