I was wondering what host does most people from here use. I was looking at domain names and was wondering where to go from there. I have made some small ones on like comcast or other but want to make it with my own .com or .net name. Could someone point me in the right direction.
i use 1 & 1. They have several packages available, and if you check over at PC Tim Fischer has a link and i think he get a little kickback or somthing.
I just discovered http://www.wix.com They host flash websites, which gives the pages a lot of movement and options. They have a lot of Christmas formats as well. Cost about the same as most and I think it looks better. I did use 1 and 1 last year, but it was "ok". Very happy so far with wix.com. Good luck!
I use One World Hosting. They have a $99 a year package that INCLUDES registration of a domain name for life. over 200 megs of storage and GREAT uptime and technical support. Check them out at:
Anyone use justhost.com Not for sure but it looks like they are one of the better ones. from the top 10 lists but who knows they could own those sites and just say they are the best. Man making me cross eyed trying to figure this one out. THanks guys for your input by the way.
I just finished mine from http://www.wix.com As I mentioned above, that this is a flash web builder which allows you more motion on your pages. I actually toned my down from what I could have done. Otherwise there would have been too much motion going on at once. My site is http://www.christmasoncharles.com
Well. I not that good at building web pages. this is something new for me this year. I look forward to learning that also. I am using justhost.com as my web host. I figured they can handle the basic stuff if they cant do flash or fireworks more complicated web stuff down the road I can switch. Don't know if $70 for two years is good or not but looked good. Now the fun of trying to use programs to build it. They had one in a panel that helped me out and got a basic web page up at Peorialights.com Now need to figure out how to make a great webpage with adding pics and video ect.

On your contacts page, you have your full name as your email address.
If your full name is Brian Jones, there is no danger whatsoever. What's someone going to do? Apply for a loan?
However, I would never put my email address on a web page! As soon as you do that, you'll be on spam lists forever. And don't think it's impossible to keep from getting spammed. I have one email address I use for family and friends that has not had a single spam received for 5 years or so. I don't even have any spam filters. The trick is that I never that address to anyone I don't trust.
Instead of an email address, my "Contact Us" page has a form that visitors fill out. It sends their message to a script that forwards the information to me.
