Hi,

$10-12 should be reasonable and if you're to use one lower than that,
you might get some tradeoffs, such as banner ads, instability, no
response for calls, and so on, but it might be ok other than annoying if
this is just a hobby site.

However, you should also consider security and privacy issues even for
non-commercial sites so using one with a better reputation for a few
dollars more is worthwhile.

Take a look at http://www.webhost4life.com
Sounds like (depending on space requirements) more features than Yahoo
for less than $10.00 per month.

I am paying about $28 a month for a yahoo small business account. I
am not
running a business, only a non-commercial web page for our motorcycle
club.
Any traffic would be members viewing photos of events or checking
news or
calender of events. I think I am paying too much seeing I am not
running a
commercial enterprise nor am I using much bandwidth as no one is
downloading
mp3's, movies etc. I am not selling anything, useing a shopping
cart, etc.
Very simple site and frontpage seems to be more than sufficient for
us.

Is this price, $28 a month, about right for what I am doing?


Thanks, they seem very reasonable. I noticed there are no ads or
banners unlike yahoo.

It turned out that my yahoo fee is only 11.95 as I had mistakenly
included the domain name, a yearly fee, not a monthly fee, so my $28
was actually $11.99 I am getting 4gb of disk space. If i pay
webhostforlife for more space, then it comes up to about $10, still
slightly better then yahoo.

I would recommend www.midphase.com at $7-$8 / month. Some very generous
bandwidth & storage. Well beyond anything we need at any rate. No banner
ads, decent support (i.e. 24/7 phone & email), well connected, 99.97%
uptime guarantee, free domain name with annual subscription, etc.

They have multiple plans and for more money you can get more bandwidth &
storage. It just depends on how many hits your site gets per month.

I'm just a satisfied customer with no other connections to them.

Good luck.
