Is R200@year expensive for email@web domain?

[Kameelperdza]

I ahve spoken to a local webhosting company here is oudtshoorn(jcwhosting) and they have told me that it will cost R300@year for email&web hosting.

I told him that i already have a website for my wug. But then i got a plan. I can use his webspace for my large file which non-local users can download.

For example hardwar. Hardwar is abandon-ware(company does not exist anymore) and i already found out that i can sare the game with anyone that wants it. The game is about 1gig. That will save me alot of bandwidth and will also allow gameserver to work faster.

Im thinking of keeping my website(www.odnwug.za.net) and teh let him create a www.odnwug.co.za which i can use for something else.

He also told me that the website and email does not have to be the same.

So i will create @odnwug.za.net email domain and a www.odnwug.co.za website.

He says that he can gice it to me for R200@year.

Another thing that i want to know is can i give each wug user his own free email address etc. jack@odnwug.za.net that he can use.

That email will be able to send email to other domain. Or will that not work as in a wug?

www.horizonhosting.co.za is cheaper.

www.horizonhosting.co.za is cheaper.

$35.95 = ~R270.00

I am not sure how it is cheaper, unless we use his first sentence price of R300.00.

It's not excessive at all and quite reasonable. The oke is stuck in oudtshoorn so support him.

 

[Kameelperdza]

Does this include an smtp@mydomain?

Gotta love the lurkers Welcome. Is your hosting package contract-only or also month-to-month?

Edit: Nevermind, your site isn't local...

If you need more information, feel free to e-mail me at info@connecthosting.net

If I have a domain already, could I most it to you guys without any charge? R20 per month hosting sounds good.

If you don't mind, instead of emailing I'll just post my question here; Say I only want one month's worth of hosting. Will that be R19,99 with all the above mentioned features too?

 

[connecthosting]

Hi tco21

Sure, no problem except I don't check the forums as often as I check my e-mail. We can transfer your domain to us without any additional charges when you sign up for any of the hosting packages. You can sign up for however long you like as there are no contracts, so when you no longer need your account it can be cancelled at any time. Hope that helps!

Seriously dude, grow some brain cells. Don't 'advertise' a domain name on a website if you haven't registered it yet. Someone is bound to register it since it will clock up some free hits now.
