What is a domain name and hosting service and how much will it cost?
A domain name is the website’s address (also known as URL) that is typed into the top part of your internet web browser. Web addresses are hosted on servers, which are computers that are dedicated to keeping your website connected to the internet so that other computers can make a request to send the domain name’s website. A good analogy is that a domain is the address that is associated with a house and that the hosting is the property that the house actually sits on. The house itself would be the website that Firetree Graphics designs and develops. A domain name can be anything as long as it is not already taken. We use Godaddy.com to host your website because of the online security they provide. The domain name and hosting are $67.57 a year through GoDaddy.com. The basic setup cost for your website covers this cost for one year. To continue running the site after the first year you can either pay GoDaddy.com directly for them to continue hosting and providing the domain name or pay
