Hi Bruce
A few questions on what you have written so far that I am not 100% clear about. I think I know the answers to some of my questions, but I hate assuming.Of utmost importance to the purchase of a service is the ISP’s connection to the registrar((?)
These can be different entities. Your ISP must provide as part of your “control panel” (?)something called “domain services”. (?) You must be able to get at your domain to adjust DNS(?) configuration or move to a different
DNS host or transfer your domain name. If this is left to email sessions to third party registrars, I would take a second look at the provider. If on the other hand the provider gives you a custom front end((?????) to control your domain as part of the “control panel tool set” then great…you are in control! As long as your account with the ISP is maintained you can have personal control of the domain through your panel.Thanking you

Hi Bruce,
thanks for the last.I’ll just clarify a few things from your last posting.
*If you have not picked or played with any page development tools don't worry.*Reply. I’m a complete novice.
*I expect we need to do a bit of branding as well as you have probably not started to developed theme for your page.*Reply. Done nothing on this topic yet.
Question re ‘entry level business plan’?
If I go to the yahoo small business web page it gives me three options Get Online Sell Online Market Online. ‘Get Online’ Web hosting package give me three options. a starter b standard c professional. Do you mean the starter package?Re sending you my draft material. I’ll clean that up today, and send that to the email address on your web page because the file is quite large.
With regards to your strategy a bit thumbs up to that.
thanking you
Alan

I pay less than 4.50 for 2.5 Gigs with all php, mysql and cPanel support (not as if I'd use it for to much now...
) -
I pay 4.50 for 300 gigs and all the dressings
that's the difference in 67.00 per year and 240.00

Hi guys,
Well some people cannot see the bigger picture eh.We have Modelhead who has been running with a particular product for years, is willing to share that knowledge with brand spanking new beginners on the subject like myself, for free.
Just think of all the people who would benifit from this help. What would it cost for 1 to 1 tuition.
Kris. Why dont you continue with your thread on building a web page using your provider, your software, step by step and allow people who wish to follow your path, travel along it.
It would be very helpful and greatfully appreciated by many I'm sure.
Cheers
Hazel.

I was happy to be following this subject, and intended to get involved, and work on my own stagnant non-happening thought of a webpage.
Modelhead and Alan, if your can stand some lurking and can continue this thread, it is appreciated.
Regards, Hank -
Hi Hank

I hope you don't think I'm detracting your thread Bruce... you're one of my only defenders... so I would have to be that way to you... I'm just a cheap bastage like I said before... and the price, it's the only point I've had to disagree with you on this entire thread, and your 50,ooo typed words in it...
so please guys don't take my nuts term to seriously... you're doing a great job here Bruce... don't let me stop you...

Modelhead,
Just wanted to offer some info on a hosting/domain service that might be worth a look.Their basic plan is $25 per year with a lot of features, you can upgrade services from that as well. Also, the same 0$ hosting plan can be purchased in 2 year increments and longer with a larger savings. I typically buy the two-year for $44.00
Good luck with everything.

Modelhead,
I agree with the route you are taking. My experience with doteasy started about 5 years ago and the first couple of years there were server problems a lot, and i complained a lot. They always were very attentive though and since that time have (over the last few years) i've experienced no server problems or interuptions.
I look forward to hearing others experiences. Keep in mind my site is small and doesn't get the traffic i would've hoped.... -
Well im on board also Bruce and yes with Yahoo.
I looked at the basic small business package, the cost, the service and tools provided and thought im happy to pay £6 per month for that.
If I was to purchase a similar package here in the UK it would cost a lot more.
Another bonus is you are not tied into a contract, you pay month by month and so can move whenever you wish. -
Hi guys,
I've signed up to the Yahoo starter package, downloaded their web page building tools and I'm as happy as a pig in ....For those thinking of using the same package that I have purchased, Yahoos web page building tools will only work with Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
Their package will allow you to use some other software to build your web pages. You need to check this out.
I'm think I'm so damn lucky having someone on this forum walking me through, step by step, building my skills and taking me to another level.
A big thumbs up to Bruce.
Alan, sorry got that wrong

Hi Modelhead,
Glad you are back in this space helping others.I will play with sitebuilder as advised. I love the idea of getting ones feet wet, so to speak, because you learn so much from your mistakes. In fact, I would say more so, because of all the problems you have to solve. And then you learn something more. Then eventually you've cracked the nut, and its time to move on to the next problem.
With regard to your point that you feel that you are going
into too much detail. I personally think that great teachers start with the basics, and are willing to answer any questions. I am a beginner, I do like to know all the details,and I think that it is essential.Looking forward to the class on Wednesday.
Thanking you again.
Alan
