[X-Newbies] Website hosting - was an eMail Question...

[Lee Morgan]

Actually, it isn't.  I have a small website, and it only costs me $20 a
month to have it hosted.  That's my major advertising outlet for a small
business I run out of my home.  I chose Yahoo because I was totally new to
website creation and maintenance, and they made it very easy.  I've since
learned a lot more about it and I'm looking at a couple of options which are
considerably less expensive.  Speaking of which, has anyone ever worked with
a company called A Small Orange for website hosting?  I've seen very good
independent reviews on them.
