Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 check with BBB and some website chat groups From: Penny <DragonTears78@...> Subject: Websites Date: Tuesday, February 23, 2010, 2:06 PM Â Ok, I have a question. I have been looking at hosting sites for another business that my boss at work owns. In the process I have come across one company that I think sounds and looks great so I am tempted to use it to set up my personal business website (which has been gone for a couple years now). Has anyone ever used ipage.com for their website? The cost is great at $3.50/month ($84 for 2 years) and this includes a shopping cart and basically everything you need. Before I sign up with them, I am hoping someone out there has used them or currently uses them that can tell me about the experience. If you have not used this site before, I am not going to ask you to waste your time responding just to tell me so, I am not that greedy But if you have used it or are using it, I could really use some input.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 My concern with any webhosting is how fast do they answer the phone or respond to email Call their tech line and see if they answer.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Luckily I have done that and they are FAST! Not to mention they offer live chat support which I have never had to wait for more than 15 seconds to get connected with someone. The people that I have talked to are also super friendly. Everything looks great as far as I can tell. I have even checked out some of the sites that they have hosted on their server and they look great. Penny From: jenkins@...

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Thanks for the tip. BBB gives them an A rating (only had 1 complaint in the past 3 years which was resolved). This company is looking better as I go! I will see what I can find out through website chat groups. It has been a LONG time since I really dealt with chat groups. Do you have any suggestions on ones I could take a look around in? Thanks! Penny From: lmdicenzo@...

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 I use GoDaddy.com for my websites. I use their Website Tonight to design my websites and they come with free email to give a professional appearance (i.e. my email is lynda@... for my www.AlyBlue.com website). Their tech support is priceless to tech-illiterate people like myself....I have them walk me through everything while on the phone and they are always happy to do that. The Website Tonight offers many templates to choose from, and I've learned how to replace template images with my own images. Cheers.
