Hosting and Domains

Hosting

Every website requires hosting. Hosting is internet storage space for your website. This is where your website files are saved and accessed by the outside world.

We can now offer customers hosting at a very affordable cost. This is ideal if you want us to handle the whole process from start to finish. We tailor make hosting plans depending on the websites requirements, but this is usually around £5 per month.

As we outsource our hosting from a large, reputable company, we can guarantee 99.9% up-time, weekly backups and full access to your account. For more information on our hosting, please contact us.

If you would rather use an external hosting company, we reccomend Host Gator.



RMD Web Design customers may use this code "RMDhostgator25" when signing up to receive a discount of 25% off the package price.

Domains

A domain name is the address of your website. For example, this websites domain name is "rmdwebdesign.com". You cannot buy a domain name, you lease it for a certain period of time, with the option to renew at the end of the lease.

Generally you would register your domain name yourself (we recommend godaddy.co.uk) but if a customer wishes, we can handle the domain registration on your behalf, and then transfer the registration to you.
