Ok, so now you have your site built, then what? Now you need to find someone with a little piece of space on the WWW for your site to sit. The companies that offer these services are called hosts and are many and varied.
Depending on your requirements, they can cost from nothing to over £100/month. That's where we can help, by taking some of the effort out of finding the right host for you. We DO NOT offer re-seller services, but will help you find the right host.
Chances are if you have access to the Internet, your Internet Service Provider, (ISP), will offer you some free space on the Web to host your own site. If this is all you want, no problem, we will assist you in uploading your site to your free space, (I currently use my Freeserve ISP space for developing new sites). These free services however can be quite restrictive in what they can offer. If, for example you wish to put a feedback form on your site or use scripts, your ISP's free service MAY NOT support certain ways of doing this, so you would need a host that you will pay for in order to achieve this.
Delicata Designs currently uses www.supanames.co.uk to host the majority of the sites it develops however, we will always try to find you the best deal available that accommodates your requirements.
All websites designed by us will be hosted on fast, reliable webspace for a minimum period of 2 years. Why 2 years? This is the minimum period for registration of a domain name. We currently offer two hosting packages:
This will include:
The details and prices are still being finalised, but we hope to have these published in early January 2006, so watch this space.
Examples of what is available should be available by late December.
Delicata Designs provided me with more than just the Banners that I asked for. They provided quick and
efficient service, they provided me with 6 banners to choose from when I only asked for 2 (in the end
taking all 6 !!) and they also provided me with XHTML compliant code ready for me to paste straight into
my web pages.
