Do it yourself Web Hosting I do not think you can come close to matching a good Web Hosting Service. Speed is the most important issue IMO for a web page. A slow service or a page full of graphics and java and ads will drive people away. The good services will have multiple connections to the Web. The cost is so low that I do not think an end user can compete. Given a fast reliable connection one still needs good machine if you plan on being successful. You should look at server types of machines..multitasking is what you need. Dual processors, lots of RAM, SCSI harddrives and NT or Unix or ? For $15.95 per month Webaxxs webhostlist.com has 300 MB web space. They have been rising in the ratings webhostlist.com Tabnet tabnet.com has very fast connections. They were recently bought by Verio. I do not know if that will affect their ratings. Namesecure namesecure.com will register a domain with Internic (url in Sean's post) and provide email and domain forwarding for $25 per year and a $25 set-up fee. The email forwarding is a good way to maintain a constant email address if you change your ISP. You also get unlimited aliases ie bob@yourdoain.com, alec@yourdomain.com, cheryl@yourdomain.com. They do not have web hosting services. Zeuspaul
