Web Hosting

A great website does nothing if it is not accessible via the world wide web. Many people are under the impression that you can pay a web developer to create a site and that is it.

Unfortuntely the site also has to be hosted on a server connected to the Internet so people can access it. There are 1000's of companies that provide a web hosting service, some are great, some are poor and some change over time. PCuse.com and 1000's of other domains use a hosting company called Dreamhost which we highly recommend.

Please do your own research (life is a great deal easier on the web when you question information) as there are many good companies out there, however consider the company we use, Dreamhost.

Special Offer

On top of the amazing service that Dreamhost provide they also have a referral system where discounts can be split between the new client and the referrer. These discounts are usually accessed via the Dreamhost Promo Codes. PCuse.com has created a few of these including some offering multiple free domains, however here we are offering US$50 off hosting using the promo code PCUSE_50.

This results in:

 

Monthly Retail: $60.90 PCUSE_50 Discount: $50.00 off (first month)

Total = US$10.90 for the first month, then US$9.95/month

 

Yearly Retail: $119.40 PCUSE_50 Discount: $50.00 off (first year)

Total = US$69.40 for 12 months (fantastic value)

 

Two years Retail: $214.80 PCUSE_50 Discount: $50.00 off (first year)

Total = US$164.80 for 24 months (excellent value)

 

All you have to do to get this discount is enter PCUSE_50 in the PROMO CODE / referrer section when signing up for your hosting. Alternatively clicking on this link to the signup page takes you directly there and will fill in the code for you. Feel free to contact Shaun if you require advice or help on hosting matters.

We can often provide a fully functional website such as this one with hosting for AU$300. That price will be forgotten in minutes when you experience our service.
