For those of you with your own wbsites....

who do you use to host the site? Do you like them? Did you use their webite crating templates? Good, bad, indifferent opinions needed!

Its time I need to make my own website for my art, and I need to know who is going to offer me the best service and user friendly features for the best price. I don't necessarily want cheapest.... I want best over all value. I want a good host that won't be down all the time, who has good customer service should I need it and an easy to use web creater. Of course, I'd like it ot be affordable!

I bought our space from www.powweb.com My website is www.plainolpup.com and so far their service has been awesome. Very cheap and very reliable. They have a great email service, too. (I need to take the time to work on our website!!!)

I use http://www.ipowerweb.com/

The feature I really like is the "Live Chat" for customer service. They have always been more than helpful whenever I've had a question.

I have two websites with them, and our work site is through them. I only used their template for one of the sites since I set it up before I knew HTML. Neither of my sites is really developed a lot, so when I get a chance to develop them I may just go with their templates. They are easy to use and save time in setting the site up.

Guess I am the lucky one here: we get that space on the web for free. It comes with our cable service (=our internet provider)! At first I didn't even know that we could open our own site. Then somebody told me about it, got me started, and.... the rest is history

I use our internet provider (phone company). They finally have space available to users. I've used lot of "free" places that turned into "pay" places throughout the years. Our internet provider has been the most stable of all the sites (Homestead, GeoCites,Tripod to name a few off top of my head). I strongly suggest looking into what your internet provider has to offer.

I use Cute Site Builder by Global Scape.
It takes patience at first to learn but once you get the hang of it it's so easy. I love it.

I make my websites from Geocities. it has small pop-ups, but I don't use the web template. I write my HTML mostly. You can see two of my websites at www.wrestlinggirl.net and www.hollywoodjimmy.com .. Both are hosted at geocities free site.
