Hey Guys,

If there is anything you want to go cheap on it isn't your hosting. The worst scenario would be for a prospect to find you and get that dreaded "Can't Find Server Page"

Now, I'm not saying that there aren't hosts that ar around $17 or so a month that have great uptime, I am just saying do your home work.

I have been through 5 different hosts over the past seven years and have found that having my own dedicated server, managed by a hosting company is the most reliable.

I use a dedicated server from Hostgator.com but there are many others out there.

I have heard good things about 1and1.biz

I pay about 450.00 month total for my own dedicated server plus a couple of shared and virtual hosts. I like to spread it around a little.
I am thinking about giving this company below a try and ditch a couple of virtual hosts

having your own dedicated server under 100.00 is a pretty good deal

I pay 9.00/mo and get it all: unlimited bandwidth, unlimited email accounts, unlimited storage, php, MySQL databases, and much more.

Shop around for sure...and find a host that gives you what you want, and provides redundant backup as well. The sites I've created are all hosted by the same company and I've never had any downtime. Can't be happier with them.

www.hostdime.com I don't get paid a thing to promote them, just a very happy customer.

look into their reseller's program. I pay $18.99 monthly and can host several domain names. Think I get like 20gb of storage and forgot how much bandwidth. right now i got about 15 sites hosted on my account.

you may have a host for 8.99 per month and make there up to 6 domains and unlimited number of subdomains. Also, good hosting is netfirms (free or 5/month) that gives ability to create *.cgi powered sites. I'm working rigth now on templates for such a site with free hosting. It's pretty cool. Site will have all dynamic functionality including searches, dynamicaly generated listings based on request or interests and other things.

There are multiple providers of hosting. The key here is to find a hosting company that provides each individual domain name with its own IP address. This enables search engine optimization much better rankings in my opinion.

Hello All,

I'm new to the forum, and for one I'd like to say hello to everyone here. This seems to be a great forum for Realtors.

On the topic of hosting,

I would advise against looking for the cheapest host. From our experience, these discount hosts tend to go out of business quiet often, simply because they cant be profitable with the rates they charge.

I would also suggest looking at hosts who are able to provide a real solution for you, and not just web hosting. After all you probably want to spend your time doing what your best at - selling real estate - not managing you IT infrustructure or fiddling around with HTML code


thats my two cents...

thank you

I agree that a dedicated server is the best option if you are hosting numerous sites. If you only need a web presence with say 4 or 5 pages then outsourcing your hosting is going to be a better option. If anyone is interested I can point you to numerous options to provide the best value for what you need.

We use Advanced Access, its 29.95 a month. The catch is our site is dynamic with all of the tools located server side. We have had good results, though.
