[CS-FSLUG] Need recomendations for Domain and Web Site Hosting

[Eduardo Sanchez]

Ralph,

Following Fred's letter, I would like to add that domain names are 
usually not that expensive. A com/net/org TLD would cost around 
$12/year. I use www.gandi.net as my registrar. They are very good and 
strongly recommended. I'm sure other people in the list has other names 
to recommend as well. IIRC, I've heard here names such as Dotster or 
GoDaddy, but I can't endorse these shops because I never did any 
business with them.

Blessings,


Eduardo
