PNLTC is hosted by a local web hosting service for free in exchange for their
name and URL on our site and we also add their name to our flyers handed out
at shows.

I hooked up with them by searching for local hosting service (on yahoo) and
just called (or emailed) around until someone said yes. I think it only took 3
calls!

BTW we started on geocities for free. This at least gave us a sample of what
our site looked like when making the calls. I'm sure there are a ton of free
hosting services today that have a limited annoyance factor.

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
