    Hello,
    Please, advise me where it is possible to register .com domain name + hosting plan for the site with minimal one time fee?

    For example, at Godaddy I pay $10.19 for the .com domain name registration + 2 months of hosting.

    What other companies can you advise where it is possible to set up a site with a minimal first investment (not more than $20 in one time payment for domain+hosting registration)?
    Thanks.

    Dennis

    how much space are you looking for.
    there is no one time fee, it would be yearly basis renewals.

    dynadot.com 7.99 domain around $12 a year for hosting! That's pretty cheap IMO.

    I wouldn't recommend using cheap Hosting... Cheap Hosting Mostly sucks!
    I recommend HostGator or Dreamhost :D
    Registrar may be Godaddy or www.domainsite.com or Namecheap.com

    Don't use the same company for hosting and domain name
    Domainsite.com is my choice for registrar
    DreamHost was not bad either for webhosting the last time i checked

    Why cheap hosting mostly sucks!

    Be aware of scamming web host: Why do so many hosting companies sell unlimited/unmetered bandwidth on shared hosting plans?

    How are they able to offer such plans and what would happen if every one of their customers decided to use 30GB bandwidth for their $4.95/mo unlimited/unmetered bandwidth plan?

    Answer: They are overselling/false advertising their bandwidth then hope you never use it, most of them will find a reason to cancel your account or make you pay extra money if you decided to use more bandwidth than what they can "REALLY" offer even though they advertised unlimited/unmetered.

    Usually these web hosts buy a plan like $4.95/mo for 30GB bandwidth with multiple domain hosting support and they resell this 1 account to 50+ people and let all their customers share that 30GB bandwidth, then sit and hope their customers don't use it up, that's how most of them work. The reason why they advertise unlimited/metered bandwidth on their plans is because they are too scared to let people know their "REAL" bandwidth allowance which is very low.

    These scammer web hosts have the following things in common, they only accept payments from paypal and/or money order but no credit card, they have email and/or chat support but no 800 telephone support, some of them will have an invalid or "answering machine only" telephone number.

    We never oversell/false advertise on any part of our features, affordable doesn't have to mean unreliable, we are so confident with our uptime that if we couldn't provide you with 99.9% uptime, we will give you additinoal month of hosting for free or refund you for that current month of hosting.

    Each of our servers is equipped with Dual Dual-Core (4-way) Xeons or Opterons, 4GB RAM, SCSI hard drives with RAID5/6 configurations, each server is backed by Gigabit (1000Mbit) connection, most other shared hosting providers are using single Pentium or Athlon, 512MB RAM, IDE hard drives without RAID controller, 10Mbit/100Mbit connection per server so you won't be able to get great performance from those providers as their network is capped at 1/100 or 1/10 of the speed compare to ours, our colocation provider is Host Centric, colocation means to move your servers to an ISP (Internet Service Provider), most shared hosting providers are too scared to answer this question "Who is your colocation provider?" because they are running on a very slow connection and they are overselling/false advertising their features.

    You can try and ask them this question in their Live Chat (since they won't have a working phone number you can call and ask) and they will shut down their Live Chat or make up some lies, if they do answer it then track them down from their colocation provider and see if they are telling the truth, this will prevent you from getting scammed.

    go for Dreamhost. Use the discount code 97OFF to get maximum discount.

    You need to pay $22.4 for first year. You will get 20GB webspace + Free Domain.
