Yahoo! Small Business extends web hosting discount

July 14th, 2009 - Posted by Kent

Yahoo! Small Business has extended their web hosting promo, which gives new customers 35% off of the regular $9.95 monthly charge for three months (which comes out to $9.08 per month for the year if you like averages, which is the minimum period for this discount). While it's not a huge savings, it almost pays for the optional (and recommended) domain privacy which comes out to $.99 per month. In our tests, Yahoo! Small Business came out as the best choice for beginners, and not just those looking to host a small business website. Individuals will find it a nice starting point for their own personal sites. Yahoo! has put together a nice, cohesive experience, that's far and away the friendliest, most intuitive interface out there. While it's not a cheap web hosting option, the ease-of-use should justify the cost for a beginner. If the on-screen help isn't enough, the support is among the best we encountered.

Check out our web hosting comparisons and reviews, or if you're ready, head over to Yahoo! to sign up.
