Hi Everyone!!

I feel perfectly happy that I had been able to join here. There are three reasons why I joined.

1. I want to learn more about domains.
2. I need help choosing the right domain for my business.
3. I want to share my ideas about other topic apart from domains.

Right now, I am seeking help from experts here at namepros. I and my good friend are both not internet savvy and we plan to open an online fashion shop. Someone I worked with in the past recommended pickaweb, a company that offers web hosting, sells domain etc. I don’t know much about the company so I made my own research and found out that pickaweb is a credible company when it comes to web hosting, and domains.

On the other hand, since I don’t have enough ideas about working with domains, I decided to seek advice from all over the internet, so here I am now posting this question with a hope to be enlightened if not now maybe in the next couple of days, weeks…

My concern is, if I choose pickaweb since someone I know recommended it for me to use, would it be a wise decision? Shall I consider buying domains or just settle on web hosting? Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I am also considering other options.

I have contacted a number of web hosting sites already but so far, only pickaweb stands out. Do you have any recommendations? Please share it with me anytime at your convenience.

Anyhow, since I am a newbie here I can't seem to add the link to the company I was referring to. if you want to check it for me, please search for pickaweb.

Thank you so much!

I don't know pickaweb at all.

But one thing I would recommend: Don't bundle your domain name with web hosting; make sure that you have complete control over your domain name and not your web host.

Make sure your domain is in your account with your own contact info listed.

Too often, I hear sob stories about web hosts taking a domain name hostage and asking for $X,XXX and worse.

In fact, some folks recommend using different companies for domain registration and web hosting.

May be cynical here, but her entire post sure sounds like an advertisement for pickaweb!

I agree. I too guessed it to be so.

What do you mean by only pickaweb stands out? What sticks out about them? I'm curious as you said you are not internet savvy.
