After your webdesign has been completed, the website needs to be hosted by a reliable server. There are millions of servers, some very expensive and some free. Free servers, such as Angelfire and AOL, usually have big strings attached such as irritating advertising banners or popup windows promoting themselves or their paid advertisers. If you are serious enough about a website to pay a professional to design one for you, please be willing to pay a SMALL amount for a great server.    I recommend DreamHost. I have hosted multiple websites on this server for over five years and am very happy with this company. Since I already have a large account, it is easy and inexpensive for me to keep adding more websites. Here's the deal: If you pay in advance on an annual basis, the cost is $60.00 per year, which is merely $5.00 a month. The alternative is to pay monthly, but the charge then becomes $9.95 a month, so the annual payment plan saves you 50 percent. I can take care of all the arrangements for you, so you need not worry about where your website is. It will just be there, and it will work. The only additional fee is for the registration of a domain name (yourname.com). I charge $25.00 for registering and setting up a domain name for you for the first year; thereafter, renewal is $15.00 annually. This includes configuring e-mail addresses (you@yourdomain.com), which will forward to your actual e-mail address. So, after your website is finished, your total annual maintenance charge is $75.00 ($60.00 for hosting and $15.00 for domain name renewal). That's the bottom line.
