Low Cost Web Hosting

Looking for a low cost web hosting solution?

Nearly Free Speech .NET offers a different approach to web hosting than most companies. They are a little more scaled back and a lot less fancy than other web hosting companies. But the slimmed down nature of their approach is absolutely perfect for beginners! No need to fork over tons of cash for web hosting.

Their plan of choice: pay as you go (i.e. use).

So instead of paying $10 or $15 dollars upfront every month for running an itty bitty website, you can pay $10 and that can stretch for months upon months depending on usage.

Here is the rundown:

  • No minimums
  • No monthly fees
  • No long term contracts
  • $1.00 per gigabyte of bandwidth
  • $0.01 per MB of disk space per month
  • $0.01 per day for dynamic websites
  • no extra charges for static websites
  • MySQL process: $0.02 per day
  • Cost per GB goes down with the more you use: See their bandwidth calculator

Give their low cost web hosting a try. It’s ideal place to start for someone just beginning to learn the ropes of the web.

Learning HTML? CSS? PHP? Sign up for their web hosting and develop in an actual “live” environment. Not only will those web programming skills be honed, but website administration skills as well! And at a very low cost!!! With this kind of low cost investment, you can develop your own blog or website on its OWN domain and leave wordpress.com and blogger behind. Think about it. Start a WordPress blog and the cost will be $2.14 for the first month! (assumes less than 1 GB of bandwidth and a WordPress install of around 14 MB.) Where else can you begin hosting your own domain for as little as two bucks! Use their cost estimator to figure out the cost based on your own needs.

For those of you concerned about privacy, they have a simple, but strict, privacy policy.

With the low startup cost, the beginning webmaster can take a large step in getting their initial website online. It is literally a no-brainer to me. If I had to start over again, I would have begun this website on NFS.NET.
