Good e-mail domain hosting service

[EdfromCocoa]

Objective: To find a good domain hosting company primarily for personal and then business e-mail hosting later with an idea towards running a web site. I tried to register with mydomain.com but get this: They have no screens to let uo pay and you can't even initialize variopus e-mail accounts because there are no step by step instructions. They have no phone # and only a post office box in Vancouver, WA.

I tried to register a domain but..

So, to cut to the chase, can anyone recommend a good domain hosting service where one is stepped though the process and one can easily set up an e-mail domain with aliases?

To have an email address with your own domain, you need to have
1. sign up for a webhost
2. register for domain name

There are plenty of webhosting packages out there.. just search here for "webhost" or something like that. Basically, you get what you pay for!

For domains names, the recommended ones here are GoDaddy and namecheap. I use GoDaddy myself and have no complains so far (because.. nothing happened).

http://www.ripplehost.com is inexpensive ($9.95 a year) to handle your email.

PM Rossman - he can hook you up and will explain it to you. Right now he is offering free webhosting for Anandtech users. I am using his service and it is a breeze

screw3d is correct.

Domain registration and web hosting are two different functions.

If you need assistance regarding either, I would be more than happy to help you out.

Do you have AIM or MSN?
