I want reliable and super cheap.

Anyone?

What kind of web site/features do you need? Relatively basic HTML/CSS/Javascript, Wordpress, or somewhere in between?

very basic

I've been hosting with Dreamhost for years for basic sites, and their customer support is good. Don't know if $8 a month if cheap enough. I'd also just give you a domain/user on my account for free because they have unlimited hosting. Let me know!

I've had good experiences with Dreamhost as well. 1&1 has also been good to me.

Oh wow, Alex, that would be awesome! I just want a placeholder page for [myfullname].com, which GoDaddy suspended because they wanted me to start paying for hosting (after years of it coming with the domain name purchase). Just thought I would look around for alternatives. Would love a free set up!

I'll look into dreamhost and 1&1 too. Thanks!

I'm about to setup a few static sites (myfullname.com, my wife's sole prop business, etc.) as Amazon S3 buckets if you'd like to provide me a zipped webroot I will try to add yours too. BYOD tho.

Make sure your RAM is async though or network packets could cascade through HTTP.

I’ve had awful experiences with 1&1 in the past

I have heard that from another person as well. I don't know. I guess I have just lucked out. They have been great to me.

Howdy, Stranger!
