Yahoo! Small Business Web Hosting: 50% off

Posted by kent on September 10th, 2009

Yahoo! Small Business Web Hosting has dropped a nice little surprise discount by offering the first year of its web hosting package for $4.99 per month. That comes in at 50%-off of their normal price of $9.95 per month. This marks a substantial savings from one of our best reviewed web hosting providers. Yahoo! keeps its web hosting under the monicker of Yahoo! Small Business, which is a bit unfortunate, as it probably drives away individuals looking to host personal sites.

For individuals or businesses new to web hosting, Yahoo! Small Business gets our top recommendation. They don't boast the fastest data transfer speeds around, but their interface and customer service are top notch. While we reviewed a number of compelling web hosting services, only Yahoo! takes you through the process step-by-step; you always know exactly what to do and when. Our main complaint had been the price of the service, but with the current discount, that argument is moot.

In the grand tradition of offer notifications, here are some details you should know: the price is good for the first twelve months. The offer expires October 8th, 2009. It's also for new accounts only. Also, registration and setup are free, but domain privacy (which we recommend) will cost you an extra dollar per month.
