On the Path Websites - Building, Hosting, and Domain Registration Packages

A word on hosting

My hosting company “Real Magic” hosting is a Dedicated Server (only their clients are on their server) that backs up every site every day, so they have Daily, Weekly and Monthly backups made.

It is also optimized for Joomla (as they specialize in this) and they provide Fully Managed Joomla Hosting for their business clients, in that they take care of all of the email setups etc and other details.

They also update Joomla to the latest secure release as they are made available. (so far there has been 6 upgrades this year).

Why is all of this important?

Security of your new website is absolutely important, especially if you are storing vital or private information such as a database of email addresses for a newsletter, webstore and payment details, or simply just your passwords and maintaining a secure template for your site.

There are many ways a dishonest person can use your website for illegal purposes and hide it in ways that you would not know. Security is VERY IMPORTANT and regular backups are a must. As we all know computers and even servers do crash from time to time, so it is nice to know your website is safe and secure.

A lot of other companies DO NOT have this level of security & backup that is why they can offer lower costs for hosting.

To start your website we first have to register a domain name. This is your website address, for example my website is www.pathtoharmonycentre.com or www.heartresonance.com

The cost of these varies from registrar to registrar and for how long you register for 1, 2, 5, 10 years. Generally speaking the longer the register the better your site is seen by search engines. Also you need to decide what type of web address to use i.e. .com or .com.au or .net.au etc.

The cost for hosting your new website with my server is $365/year per domain. If you have more than two domains, the 3rd and additional domains are $250/year.
