I've been a GoDaddy customer since 2002. They are great for domains but I wouldn't use them for hosting. If you get a domain from them, enter promo code OYH3 and you'll get a few bucks off.

Just a note.. the biggest complaint I hear about them is hidden fees. And the reviews I see online aren't spectacular; there are a lot of negative reviews.

As someone who with years of website experience, I wouldn't go with them.

Hidden fees for which of their service(s)? Their domain registration is upfront and well-priced, with no additional fees not required by law to be charged by any ICANN acredited registrar.

I too have read poor reviews (about their hosting service), but I use another company for that. For domains though, they are definitely the best I've found.

Who do you go through for hosting purposes? and what is hosting exactly? I only signed up for domain purposes with godaddy.com but what's hosting for?

Look at it like this:

A domain is like a street address, and hosting is the house at that address.

You need a hosting account to house your website. It's where all your website files are stored so that they can be viewed online when someone types in your domain. I'll PM ya back to help you get started.

I use Telus.com for my hosting and when I sign up with them for a year contract then the registration/purchase of my domain is free. I don't have a lot of time to mess around with my web site so I really like them as they have fantastic web building tools......I'm also not in a position to be able to pay a web designer....

 

[rupertspal42]

i'm the same way Lindy, I can't afford that kind of moolah..

Thanks Daniel you're really nice for helping me out!! Thanks you so much! I don't know what I would do with out you guys!

I have been with GoDaddy for several years. I have 2 domains and use the blogs a lot, also the photo hosting. I have tried to build a website with their tools a couple of times though and couldn't seem to figure out how to do anything good. But they are really cheap and I have never been hit with one single hidden fee in the 7 or 8 years I have been with them.
