Why Buy A Domain Name And A Hosting Plan?

April 4, 2008

For P355 wouldn’t you?

Ok, so this is my sorta business-like self spilling into this smorgasbord blog. I more or less write stuff like this in my reference-oriented blogs and I know sooner or later my blog worlds would collide; it’s just a matter of time. But I still will not reveal where those blogs are located (although if you’re curious enough, it wouldn’t be that hard).

Alright back to the question and the notoriously simple answer. P355. That’s less than $10 bucks for one year’s worth of lease on your very own internet real estate. Here’s the breakdown. You purchase your domain name at Yahoo! Small Business. They have a promo where domain names can be had for $1.99. But here’s the kicker, in the following year prices go back to $9.95. For the hosting plan, last weekend, philhosting.net offered their plans at 50% off which means that their one year Linux Value Plan usually priced at P550 were being sold for only P275. Unfortunately the promo ended last April 2– yep this is too late the hero but still, if you go for the regular prices, what’s P550/year?

Or you can just get yourself a free service from i.ph and ask yourself “why the hell am I even reading this crap”.

In choosing a domain name it is important to make a plan before doing any move. In business, domain names should somehow be related to what the company is about.
