I can arrange hosting and register domains for web design clients. Where I do this, I do it through the UK Stock Exchange listed Pipex group.

In addition to purchasing the webspace and the domain, I manage the initial set up, registration and renewals. I will set up the first email account for you on the server - you can subsequently set up a further 9 accounts yourself. I charge the following fees:

Domain management, registration and email facilities	p.a.
.co.uk , .org.uk	£35
.com, .net, .org	£45
(Renewals handled at 50% of the above rates)
For website hosting
Unlimited space, database facilities where required etc	£80

I always

• register the domains in your name, and
• provide full details for access for you and others.

This may not appear to be a big deal but if these things are not done (and all too often a domain finds itself registered to someone else) then you do not have full control of your own property.

Alternatively, you can always handle these areas yourself. However, you are advised to use a host with which I am familiar - www.oneandone.co.uk is competitive and well featured, has comparable overall costs to the above and will suit the needs of most.
