Try Facebook for Hosting and Domain Deals

March 21, 2013 by

I never thought I would say this so here goes. You may want to try Facebook when looking for good deals on domain hosting. Many companies now have their own and then there are with a call fan pages or community pages. When I was looking for Go Daddy deals I came across as Facebook page here https://www.facebook.com/GoDaddyAddicts, and there happen to be coupons.

What I Find Interesting
What I find most interesting about looking for deals on a Facebook page is the fact that people can be candid. Much like a third-party review site people can leave messages and notes about the company and what is happening in real time. Many times review sites are after-the-fact and sometimes they can be months old. facebook-godaddy-pageWith a Facebook page the most recent messages are at the top you can see what is happening right now. You can determine if people seem to be happy or upset if they are upset with which part of the service they are upset with. I found both positive and negative comments about godaddy on that page above. The negative ones seemed to be isolated issues and not directly related to godaddy’s service, at least that was the impression I got.

It is a great way to determine which particular companies will you want to do business with. Not only can you find deals when looking at a Facebook page but you can find the sentiment of users. The one caveat I would mention is the fact that most people only write something when they are upset. It is rare that someone would make a note on a page when they’re happy. It does happen but usually only if someone is extremely happy with the service are getting. If you see a bunch of positive reviews on a third-party website then you must know the company is doing something really right. At least that is my opinion. While most comments may be negative, at the very least you can determine what people expect and what they’re getting from particular provider. Just my 2 cents, maybe Facebook is becoming more useful than I thought.

List of Updated Hosting Deals

March 21, 2013 by

Sometimes you just have to do a little searching. Is amazing how little effort it takes these days to find information. I recall years ago when I used to go to the library to find information on stocks. Defined research on stocks I to spend all day Sunday that the library. These days with the Internet you can find anything you want regarding financial information online in a heartbeat. You can usually find information about any particular topic you may be interested in. When it comes to finding discounts for any business within five minutes I’m sure you can find a list of them. To actually buy something from a company not even to try to obtain a discount these days seems absurd. Reason I say that is that it would be no other reason other than pure laziness not look online poor discount at the particular store you want to purchase something from.

Some are Helpful and Some are Not

longest.com hosting coupons While you can find information easily it is not always the best information. One of the things about making information difficult to find typically means it is also difficult to produce so the person putting it together has put quite a bit of time into it. That is not always the case on the Internet. It is so easy to publish information many times it is not very good. However if you look the longest.com website will find hosting coupons to list them. The particular pages been there for a number of years and is always updated with the latest deals. When looking for discounts online typically want to be sure you find a reputable sources been around for a while and keeps updated information.

My advice is do not be lazy. Be sure you look online and do a search on the best possible deals before you go purchasing from a particular company. Once you have found deals take a look to be sure the site is reputable. Then look at when information is published and read what they have to say. These days you can usually tell by the grammar if someone has put time into the page. Often the author will say when the post was last updated. Sometimes there is a timestamp to show when it was last updated. There are many ways to determine if the page is useful. Particularly if it was in the top 10 of a search engine. That alone tells you that a search engine thought it was valuable, which in turn means other people have also thought it was valuable.

List of Hosting Deals

March 20, 2013 by

These days it seems like every hosting company offers both operating systems. Actually they typically offer a couple different flavors of Linux, and at the very least they offer one. And they also offer the Windows operating system. While The initial cost old a hosting account using either linux or Windows is the same, it can change substantially as your site grows.

The Cost Difference is Usually the Database
Not a huge difference in the cost of the operating system but typically a fairly large difference when it comes to databases. With linux you can use MySQL which is free, but with Windows their solution is licensed depending upon how much you use it. The Windows solution is called Microsoft SQL server. Once you have to begin scaling your site substantial traffic begin to have multiple Web servers. Some of those Web servers will be just for website traffic to serve up webpages, but many of them will be for databases. Is not uncommon to have multiple databases for redundancy. Usually one database is the master and the others are the slaves. Regardless of how it is set up the more you have more substantial the cost will be with a Microsoft solution.

Getting a Good Start
couponswapper.comTo get a good start with your website you should start with a hosting company such as Go Daddy that allows you to grow over time. Instead of running directly to a server farm and installing your own hardware, it is best to try to start with managed hosting. This way another company will manage the servers and security, the routing, etc. Then when you start to grow you can change to another hosting package common to your needs. With Go Daddy not only can you obtain more RAM and disk space and other typical hardware upgrades; but, you can even move to a cloud solution if necessary. In that case you only pay for what you use which is a substantially better model thin paying licensing fees when the majority of the time you’re not even using full capacity. So I suggest you take a look at CouponSwapper.com which has a list of the best possible deals poor online stores. While there are thousands of them listed in this case you may want to go directly to the Go Daddy page coupon codes to get started with the best possible discount therefore yielding you the best possible price.

A Hosting Deal You May Not Want to Pass Up

March 19, 2013 by

Most hosting deals are not as good as this one. At Go Daddy you can use the coupon code hostdeal to obtain there a economy hosting at an unheard-of price. For less then most companies charge for a domain name you can get a year’s worth of hosting.How much does it cost you ask? Is only one dollar a month and these days it seems like everyone compares their monthly cost of a cup of coffee. So this is less small cup of coffee at Starbucks. It is only $12 for an entire year.

Hosting Coupon HOSTDEAL

Good deal pertains to their economy hosting but not let that fool you. The “economy” only refers to the amount of disk space and a couple other hosting variables. You still get all the features that the other types of hosting accounts provide. There is still the one click installation, for example. Means you have access to all of the software the would get with any other hosting account. There is also the software to provide your website on a mobile device as well. Again, everything you would get in any of their other accounts you get with this. And this is all featured hosting meaning you get full ftp access.

Direct Access to the Webserver
You can connect directly to the webspace associated with your account. You can upload and download files directly. You can change permissions on files, install anything you may want to install, and essentially have direct access to all the files. This is not the type of hosting were all you get is drag-and-drop. You get a lot more than that and a lot more control. You can get your own hosting up and running and choose a operating system that works for you. Of course here we like to choose Linux. But, you can choose a Windows operating system if you like.

Choose a Company and a Discount

March 18, 2013 by

Whether you are obtaining hosting or domains you will probably want to obtain the best possible deal. In order to do that you first need to choose which company you are going to use. Actually you may want to choose both the company and see what discounts each company is providing first. In other words you may find the prices for 5 or 10 companies and then choose based on price. However to get the best possible deal you would want to look at each company and then search on the discounts you can obtain for each. Once you have done that you can take the company’s price along with the discount they provide and determine the best possible price for each company. That would be the ideal way to find best price.

Price Alone?
However, I do not suggest that you choose a company on price alone. Personally I would look at testimonials of customers. Most importantly, I would look at reviews from customers and not at the company site. I would look to find a site that provides reviews and does so in an unbiased manner. This is the process I suggest because I am not saying any company would lie however typically if a company gets a bad testimonial or bad review the do not post on their own website. Therefore you need to find the reviews that are posted elsewhere on the web end there are many review sites that serve specific purpose.

Best Price Example
This Video is an example of how to obtain the best possible price. By using a coupon for Godaddy you will be able to receive a discount on your service. Watch the video for specific instructions.

You can see that once you have picked a hosting or domain company such as Go Daddy, you can then use a coupon. The combination of your company choice and then applying a discount is a good deal.

GoDaddy Code

November 15, 2012 by

godaddy.com coupon codeI’ve been working on a bunch of new web sites lately, and now I’m at what I consider to be the most fun part of the process: coming up with the domain names. All the hard work is done, figuring out what kind of web sites I want to make, coming up with topics for each, doing the design and choosing platforms, creating the basic content to start them with. Now I just need to come up with good domains names and register them before someone else snatches them up. Figuring out domain names is an art all to itself: all the obvious domain names have already been taken, so it’s all about being clever and coming up with catchy titles and creative spellings.

I’m going to register them with GoDaddy because I found a GoDaddy sample of coupons, possibly not all of them but a decent sample. I will use these to get me a great deal on bulk domain names. You might only know GoDaddy from their Superbowl commercials in recent years, but they’ve actually been around since 1997. 15 years is a lifetime in the internet business world, few companies last that long. GoDaddy.com has survived so long because they offer reliable services at super low prices. This is exactly why I’m trusting them with my web sites. I give my business to Go Daddy because they make sure that I stay in business.

$3.99 .US domains

June 13, 2012 by

As a Linux user, I like to do most things a little bit differently when it comes to computing. That’s why I think I’m gonna start registering domains using the .US domain. Since .US is the official extension of the United States, I feel like it will catch on pretty soon and there’s a lot less competition right now for domains than there is for .com and .net domains. I think good .US domains will be a great investment.

Right now GoDaddy is having a great deal where you can get .US domains registered for just $3.99 a piece. This is a great price for any domain, but especially for .US. For some reason the price of .US domains seems to fluctuate up and down, i’ve seen them go for as much as $20 each. This Godaddy coupon is only good through July 15th though, then the prices of .US domains will be up in the air again. Here’s the Godaddy Discount:

I tried to register Lin.US for a Linux site, but someone already beat me to it!

There’s also this June coupon for Godaddy Hosting which will get you 20% off of your hosting plan in the month of June. You’ll also find the GoDaddy Hosting Code 199JUNE on that page, which will get you economy hosting for just $1.99 a month when you purchase in June!

Top Company
Not only was Go Daddy one of the very first registrars but they are now the top domain registrar. They were so good at what they do that they were purchased. The company sold but still does everything the same. They sponsor the same race car drivers, have the same girl commercials, but most importantly provide the same services. Their customer service is excellent and their products and service offerings keep growing. Take a look at what they offer and you will be impressed.

Start Website with Open Source

January 20, 2010 by

When it comes to starting a website there are efficient ways of doing it. The most economical is to use open-source software. Open source software such as an operating system. Most popular open-source operating system is Linux. Then if you need a database there is mySQL. There are many other pieces of the website puzzle that can be done with open-source software. The website itself may need a content management system. WordPress is the most popular content management system that is open source. As you know open source means it is all free. If you need support you would probably pay for a package for support. However when you are creating your own site if you host it somewhere else you do not have to worry about these things.

GoDaddy Hosting

Once you have the site operating system in a database set up in a content management system you can add functionality. You can modify a content management system is a unique appearance. Word press calls from teams. There many things you can buy some that are free. So you may want at a photo album. It’s a building one you can simply use open-source one. You may want to add chat. However I caution you against you because of his intensive on the server. You may want to add the ability for others to subscribe to your site via e-mail or RSS. If you are using a content management system like WordPress these are called plug-ins and are typically free. There are hundreds if not thousands of plug-ins. So the biggest issue is whether or not you want to maintain office. Up to this point everything we discussed is free. However you now have to put it on a server. Do I buy a server for couple hundred dollars or maybe thousand? You want to have to obtain Internet connectivity? Those things not only cost money but they also cost time. But what if you could get your website and hosting for $50 a year. Now you got a great deal. All you need to do is get a domain name and hosting. You can use a godaddy hosting coupon to get a domain name at a discount, you can also use that same Go Daddy coupon to obtain hosting as well as domain for less than $50 a year. They do not have to buy the server nor set up anything. And if there is an issue you do not have to worry about because Go Daddy takes care of it for you. You can find a list of discount codes here http://www.squidoo.com/godaddy-hosting-promo-code-2009.

Now comes the domain names you do not want to get only one. Or a couple things you want to do. First of all you get your own top level domain as a .com for your website main name. The matter what anyone tells you just look at search results and you’ll see that most sites are you.com. You want to pick a domain name you can also get the.net version of in some of the other most popular extensions. Popular extensions such as.US. You may also want to get foreign extensions on a domain in case you want to move into a foreign site. Now the second thing that is very important is that you obtain Ms. spellings of your domain name. In other words if someone remembers your domain but spelled it wrong wherever they go. If you bought a domain name you can point at your site and they will not know the difference.

To make sure that not only you make a smart decision on the hosting you also make smart decision on your domain names what Dr. Brent.
