• [Q] Good domain name and email hosting provider

    From BungleBob@21:1/5 to All on Mon Nov 1 18:17:25 2021
    Does anyone know a good domain name and email hosting provider?

    I was using Domains4Less which was great, but they were bought up by
    Crazy Domains who are extremely annoying with their constant junk
    emails and pushy phones calls trying to get you to buy other services,
    pay renewals "now!" (well over a month before it's due), etc. :-(

    I have also come to the same view of Crazy Domains after having been taken
    over by them. The small guys tend to do it better is my gut feeling.

    There is http://webhostingnz.com, note *no* . between webhosting and nz.

    These guys are at the budget end of the market. Seem to work okay for my
    simple needs.

    Mail only $2/m (charged monthly) plus domain name cost $25/year for non
    fancy ones.

    I would be interested if there are others as I have this feeling that
    renewal time will be churn time.

    Thanks. I'll make a note of them to check out. I think I've got one
    more year on my Domain Name with Domains4Less / Crazy Domains, so I'll
    probably pay for another year of email hosting to match, but then I'll
    be moving it somewhere with more sensible customer service rather then
    customer harassment.
