Watch out for those who offer you your domain name for little or no cost.
Think your getting a deal?
Just wait till you try to move your website
to a different host.
Then you find out you only own the domain name as long as you host there.
Not such a good deal anymore is it?

Sski.net was started to fill the gap between those providers that offer you plain text then suck you in to sell add-ons, and those that provide the big fancy expensive websites. Not all businesses need a big fancy website but they do need or want something. Some only need or want a yellow pages style presence on the web when they first start (what I call a static page). Whatever it is, all modern businesses should have a web presence.
Website development can get expensive for a small business. There is no need to acquire services at $80 to $100 an hour and up. A presentable, functional and informative website could be yours at reasonable cost to your growing business. I'll give you the basic info you need right here to get you started.
