I'm starting the first steps in making my business plan. I was wondering which is the cheapest: domain registrar, hosting and e-commerce (shopping cart) providers out there.Also how reliable they are.
Ive looked at GoDaddy and 1&1, 1&1 is more expensive than GoDaddy and theywant to lock me in for a 2 year contract whereas GoDaddy doesn't lock me in and is cheaper. Ive read reviews about GoDaddy and they were pretty negative about them. 1&1s nearly double the price of GoDaddy as well.
Also for hosting i was looking at HostMonster and Lunarpages, both have similar plans but i don't know how reliable they are.
For e-commerce software, i was looking at ekmpowershop, ive looked elsewhere and most of them are pretty expensive at around $60 a month.
So i was wondering if you guys can give me advice based on your experience with hosting, domain registrar, and shopping cart software, which ones have you had good reliability with and good service with and which ones you recommend to me.
Most importantly value for money as i am a broke student (you've probably never heard that before)-lol.
