The Free Article Directory

When you have made the decision to publish your website on the famous world wide web you soon find that it is usually easier said then done. In regards to simple or personal websites there are thankfully thousands of options that make it nearly as easy as saying it, unless you have extremely high standards.

Usually free hosting plans exist though they rarely allow you to publish your own design and offer simple templates. This is a great option for someone who has no experience in web design what so ever, but for those who have designed or plan to design their website where do we go from here? The free options that do exist for publishing your self created website are few and far between, and even if you do strike gold while searching on Google these usually do not allow you the flexibility one would hope for. An alternative is to pick a cheap (unfortunately not free) option in the form of shared hosting. Shared hosting comes with many package plans everywhere from $2 a month to $40 a month. These packages usually come with a contract, from one month to two years is the norm, and as one would suspect, the longer the contract the cheaper the monthly rate in most cases. In addition, 99% of the time you are not subjected to banners of God knows what kind of advertisements on your website, which makes things more aesthetically pleasing.

Generally you would not want to advertise  your small business on a free site as they rarely would come up in Google searches, and even if they were it would be outside of ideal real estate (such as on the 100th search page). Shared hosting companies often offer coupons for Google, Facebook, and often Yahoo searches, allowing you to promote your business in a more organized and professional manner.
