1and1 Web Hosting Reviewed

Any package you get with 1and1 will decrease the cost you pay for your domain name and give you access to special offers. They frequently run promotions which offer very low introductory prices in terms of monthly fees for web hosting and bonus freebies or knocked down prices on additional domain names. In terms of web space what you require depends entirely on what you plan to do, the most basic package offers 250MB and 3GB of traffic which is easily enough for a small website. The largest package offers 20GB of space and 200GB of traffic. It is important to be careful because if you exceed your monthly traffic allowance they will hit you with additional charges. There are free web hosts out there but there is usually a catch of some kind.
