I’m closing in on the launch of my first website and finding a host is a daunting task.
Is there a difference between local or national in terms of security?
Pricing options and fees are terribly confusing?
In lieu of all the available applications, web objects, plug-ins, etc. that are available for free, what about hosting?
I have found that whatever service I have an interest in including on my site, from guestbooks to merchant accounts, I can get almost anything for free.
I’m not looking for something for nothing but I do know the difference between two services that offer the same solution and one charges and one doesn’t.
This has become a major game on the Internet.
Essentially I am wondering what are the most secure and least expensive hosting solutions available and how do I sort through the maze?
