Interesting.

I used them a few years ago. While the response time was pretty good, the content was terrible. The reps had no idea what they were talking about.

Maybe they got better.

Where'd you get the domain from? Many domain providers offer placeholder pages for free
My domain provider offer their standard under constrution.  Not customizable. 
If you're ok with ads, go with wix.
Will check out,  I thought freemium does not allow your own domain.

I was correct. To host your own domain requires a subscription.

I"ll explain my needs in detail, perhaps someone knows of a solution.


I registered a domain for use as business email. I signed up for a free domain email service (zoho.)  As I have no http host, a visit to my domain gets a Server not found error.  I'd like to have a page load that says  mydomain.com  with a Contact Us link to the business email.

Why not use Zoho. Free for what it seems you need.

I'm having issues with my PCI compliance and my web developer kept saying that something is wrong with the hosting company. So i'm on the phone with GoDaddy now and they are claiming that their cpanel shared server isn't PCI compliance, only the dedicated one.

Is that correct?
