Can anyone recommend a good, affordable hosting provider for a small travel information website I'm about to create? Is free hosting a bunch of hot air?

I've had great luck with A2Hosting - by far. However, if you're not well versed in web design and development, GoDaddy is probably the easiest provider to get started with.



A seemingly nice site for hosting provider reviews is via Web Hosting Geeks, so you can do a little independent research. A great article to help you pick a provider can be read at Smashing Magazine (http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/03/29/9-steps-to-a-happy-relationship-with-your-hosting-provider/).



One thing I can say, categorically, DO NOT use 1&1 Hosting...some of the worst down-time rates and stupid-bad support.

I recommend one of these: http://www.tophostingpicks.com



iPage has the best offer right now.

Their standard price is $84/year ($6.95) but they have

a 50% sale, one year of hosting for $42.00.



Their plan includes:



Unlimited disk space

Unlimited bandwidth

Free domain name



Price: $42/year ($3.50)



They have one of the most popular hosting platforms, which currently hosts over a million websites. They're also one of the oldest hosting companies, founded in 1998.



They include a free point & click online site builder so you can create a website without any programming (easily, just by drag and drop) or you could install Wordpress (they include easy, one click install from their control panel), choose a theme that you like, and start adding content.



They also have a great custom control panel with OneClick installs of all the popular software like Wordpress, Joomla, Forums, Chat, Galleries, Online stores and a lot more.

https://www.serverffs.com/



A .com domain is about $13 a year, and you can get web hosting (100mb disk space and 10gb bandwidth a month) for about $3 a month, but I doubt you'll need better then that for now. However, it doesn't cost too much for higher specs.



About 7.5¢ for +50mb disk space and about 2.5¢ for +1gb of bandwidth a month.



It's also extremely reliable and has 24/7 live support, it uses the Direct Admin panel (includes email and everything) and I've been using it for the past few months with limited distastes.



Another thing I like about it is it's terms of service. Most hosters (even really expensive ones) say you can't do a lot of things like create emailers, host proxys, host a public uploading site, etcetera. All ServerFFS asks you for is basically not to break any laws.

As an experienced webmaster I recommend BH web hosting which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

Unless you already have a domain you will need to pay for that also. I would recommend either Hostgator or Godaddy. Godaddy domain registration is about $6 and hosting about $2.50 a month for 12 months. Hostgator average about the same.



Word Press blogs are free for both domain name and hosting and some very good travel themes are available for free.

Free hosting is not always bad if that thats what you're looking for.



If you want to go with free hosting I recommend http://vlexofree.com for your free web host. They offer up to 2GB of space and 20GB of bandwidth. They are very reliable and have have fantastic uptime. :)

I did research before I settled down for FatCow. I found their services quite reliable. You can try their services, too. They do offer certain promotions on their web hosting plans. http://www.webhostingbreak.com/fat-cow-coupon/

mediatemple. Lots of bandwith, space, great customer service and it will support as many websites as you want for one monthly price ($20). look at their grid-server service.
