 | You can set up your own server if you want, although that would take a lot of work. One of the best web hosts is HostGator, they have fast servers and reliable service, so that's a good choice if you're looking for a host. |

| Try this too - bigrock .. They give you a lot of templates to choose from and you can start building and get your website live in minutes. I found this link on xpango's facebook page and apparently its hosted on bigrock. - Home - Free iPhone 4 / PS3 / Torch. |

| I'm not sure what a vps is :L bigrock sounds good as well. Do most hosting websites have their own website builder with templates and the like? I know some that use wordpress. I'm mainly thinking about price when looking for a host which is why im trying weebly at the moment as it is free |

| Some free webhosts for you: FreeHostia.com 000Webhost.com Give Wordpress a try it really isn't that difficult, apart from when it goes wrong that is. |

| I use meirhostingdomains.com for my paid hosting, and I've started using x10hosting.com for free hosting. I used to use freehostia and 000webhost, but stopped using them. Of those 2, 000webhost have the worst support. |

X10hosting have been pretty good in comparison, although I've not had to raise a support ticket yet. | |

I use 123-reg for buying my domains. And then I use HostGator for my hosting Hosting with HostGator costs me about £6 a month(That's for all of my websites). So £6 in total.

The most expensive I can find at 123-reg is £6.99pm Web hosting | Cloud Hosting | Affordable domain web hosting from 123-reg.co.uk Edit: Oh no I've got it.You're doing by year! Yeah the Starter Package comes with 1 Free Domain Name (Have a feeling it has to be .co.uk though)
