Hi All,

I’m planning to lock-in a club www.gfltc.org address and I know it will cost
$70 (first two years). But what about the Web Hosting part, there are
companies that charge by the month and by the year. I also guess there maybe
company or two that would sponsor us for free (if I could find them)? The best
deal I can find for our small low budget club is a free XOOM site(with pop-up
adds) linked by NameSecure.com forwarding service ($24.95 a year plus one time
$25 setup) Do any of you have better ideas or tips? How did the other LTC and
LUG do it?

Thanks for the help,
Robin GFLTC

(...) Domain names don't necessarily cost that much anymore. Check out <URL:(URL) for $13/year domain registrations. (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.org, lugnet.trains.org)
