I disagree with this statement. DomainTheNet, for example, have a horrific interface if you want to manage multiple domains for multiple entities. I have had cases where changing one domain's contact information affected the other domains. Isoc's method of handles is non-intuitive for non-programmers, but it is very concise in who a change affects.

Hi, (Disclosure: I work at Hostdime) Micha, as for registrar, all of them are more or less the same here in Israel, they all dealing with ISOC and the differences is the price you pay. As for basic web hosting, it really depends on few parameters: - Do you want to host it in a shared hosting? VPS? dedicated server? - Does your code/content requires heavy cpu/network/disk usage, if (and when) it's being accessed? - Does it matters where it is located? (Israel, USA, Europe etc...) - Is backup service important to you? - Do you require any specific PHP modules/Java (server side) or any other external libraries which needs to be installed system wide? - How much are you willing to pay? IMHO you should take these points, think about them, and then look for a hosting solution. Thanks, Hetz 2010/4/25 Micha mi...@post.tau.ac.il I remember some talk here some time ago about problematic registrars and options for web hosting. I hope that this is not too off topic and flammable, but I was hoping for some recommendations for an Israeli domain name registrar (.co.il and .org.il) and basic web hosting (html, possibly php, for a basic web site, probably moderate traffic) Thanks ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il -- my blog (hebrew): http://benhamo.org Skype: heunique MSN: hetz-b...@benhamo.org ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Thanks, I just recalled someone talking about checking availability and a day later the site was taken, which is what I'm afraid of. So you are saying that everyone at http://www.isoc.org.il/domain_heb/registration.html is ok? As for cost, they all seem the same price (80 NIS a year) It's not an Israely one, but I heard some horror stories regarding goDaddy for example (freezing domain names, etc.) As for basic web hosting, it really depends on few parameters: * Do you want to host it in a shared hosting?

I'm looking to setup a basic site for my wife for a small business. it will probably be mostly html, maybe some php to allow her to change some aspects without going into html (basic dynamic content creation based on file in the directory or simple inclusion / processing of text files). No need to collect data, backup, etc. Possibly only mail support to setup a contact me page. I would be happy if it will be high volume since it would say a lot of potential customers, but I'm guessing pretty low traffic. Would prefer something relatively cheep as a start to see how things pick up. Once there is some cache inflow, it's easier to justify cache outflow ...

I've been managing about 98 domains for about 3 years now with them and have no problems at all. Even more so - when transferring domains TO them FROM another registrar I learned that GoDaddy actually offer a way to speed the domain transfer (if it's transffered FROM them) which most others don't, and had to wait the standard 5 business days cool-off period for the other registrar to give away the domain. Their SSL certificates seem to have problems with not-latest Java JVM's not recognising their CA yet, but otherwise they are good too and the cheapest I remember.

I'm NOT a web site expert but had to setup a web site for my wife. The site designer opted for HTML and PHP and now we are stuck with a nice but home brewed web site which is a chore to maintain. I'd recommend checking systems like Drupal/WordPress etc even for a small site. I've been trying to switch over but didn't have time to complete it. If you go this path then you might want to check sites like drupal.org.il which might be able to help finding drupal hosting (and probably similar sites for other CMS).

I hear about people splashing on a too expensive web site (and other perks) with no justification.
