Question by Laura: What is the best web site host (best bang for a buck) for a small online business just getting off the ground?

Answer by Unstoppable Dreams
I would say that there are many variables to consider. What features do you seek? What is your budget? You need to find one that suits you. I would suggest that you take a look at several before making a decision. First compare feature by feature then dollar for dollar. That will ensure that you get the “best bang for a/your buck”. You can take a look at the one that I use for comparison. http://www.tobuildyour.com

Question by chicagodude420: When you buy a domain name from godaddy do you own it or just rent it?
When you buy a domain name from godaddy do you own it or rent it? If you own it how come you only sign up for like 2 years at a time?

Are there other ways to buy a domain name where you own it forever? I recently heard of a guy in Chicago buying the domain name Chicago2016 and now the Olympic committee is trying to buy it from him or sue him to get it. I thought it may be a good idea to buy some names I think might be popular a few years down the road and holding onto them. Wha’ts the best site to buy domain names from in terms of cheapest and longest. Thanks

From what I understand domain registrations are typically not offered for more then 10 years at a time.

Buying domains that you aren’t using is called Cybersquatting. According to the United States federal law known as the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, is registering, trafficking in, or using a domain name with bad faith intent to profit from the goodwill of a trademark belonging to someone else. The cybersquatter then offers to sell the domain to the person or company who owns a trademark contained within the name at an inflated price.

It is typically frowned upon and many times the courts have made the squatters hand over the domain name to those that have the rights to it. Particularly if they never used it for their own website or are hosting less then mainstream content on it.

you may be best buying some off the shelf software to help you build that site.

But basically you buy a domain name and then get a hosting company to host it for you. You then upload the content to the hosting company’s server and the rest of the world can then see it.

Try and search for a cheap hosting compnay that offers ecommerce sites ready to go.

Question by Karen H: how do I register for a domain name that was just cancelled? my partner and I dissolved and I need ownership?
She willingly gave up the domain name so I could register it, but it won’t allow me to do so. how can I get the domain name registered immediately?
Thanks, she and I aren’t talking now so I just have to wait until it’s available again.

It may take some time for the domain name to become available to the public again. Your ex partner should contact the company that it was registered through and transfer ownership to you. It would be just like registering any domain for future sale to anyone interested.

sue where? For what? They are a business; they have the right to treat with the people they choose to.
