Hosting on $15 Budget

That might sound a little crazy. Really. But that’s possible over and over again with some cheap hosting companies that charge you according to your purse.

I’ll give you a hypothetical case.

Jim is down and out as a result of the global economic meltdown that hit his newspaper company where he was a reporter. He’s got $500 dollars in savings, and some online journalistic ideas that can help him eke a living online in six months’ time. Jim can only risk $50 on this venture.

Suppose Jim came across www.cheaphostingcart.com, particularly this post, he would follow the steps listed below in choosing a cheap but reliable host that understands his predicament.

1. Look out for hosts that charge cheap fees on monthly or quarterly plan.  Some of them give you coupons – special discount tool for their patron. If you get a coupon, you pay less. With this plan, you can’t be lazy. You either shape up or ship out.
2. Some of the hosts can register your domain name free of charge if you would host with them. You are able to cheat other domain registrar here.
3. These hosts have site builders and themes that you can install to build your site with few clicks.
4. That could save Jims some bucks on hiring web designers to build your site. I know a guy that can build and optimize your Wordpress blog for you, free, if you chose to host with his reliably cheap webhost.

5. If you’re a blogger, choose Wordpress as your platform. It will save you the cost of hiring search engine optimizers. You actually need them for visibility in the search engines – Google and Yahoo.

Now taking those steps, you are able to save at least $5 ,adding up to $25.
You can spend this on, say, an autoresponder – for list building. I might tell you what list building means later. But its very important for Jim.

All that remains now is Jim’s site content. How rich, relevant, and marketable it is.

That you are able to host your site cheap has saved you some money you can invest else where for promoting and monetizing your site.

Isn’t that cool? I think it’s worth the pain seeking out those cheap hosts.
