Hosting for Your Website

Hosting is where your website files, images and other developed code is stored in a central location.  You must have hosting to allow your website be seen by the world.  There is a yearly charge for this service.  There are many hosting companies in Ireland with a variety of different hosting packages and prices. For Irish sites we use Blacknight.  Their service and support is excellent and their downtime is negligible.

For your website we provide the hosting as part of one of many shared hosting packages so you pay less.

When included with a domain name the price is typically in the 70-80 Euro price range for hosting + domain name.

What Domain Name Should I Choose?

It is probably a good idea to purchase a domain name that is reflective of your business.   We also recommend that you purchase the .com, .ie so that you secure the use for future projects.  It is not critical that your domain name has the business type as this has reduced in importance in recent years.

The price of retaining a domain name is small in comaprison to losing that domain name to another business.  For .ie domain names you need to prove ownership of the domain name and it makes snes in the case to register your business name with the Central Registry Office (CRO) you can download the form to do this there.
