Following on from a recent discussion on the Enterprise Ireland e-Business mailing list about hosting and domains I offered to draw up a comparison list.
The list, which is available here, is of the top 10 or so companies as listed by WebHosting.info.
The pricing listed is for the following items:
- IE domain registration
- .com registration
- .co.uk registration
- .eu registration
- entry level hosting plan
– there maybe a lower cost for a transfer, but this is ignored
– basically the cheapest on they offer
The list is split into those with servers in Ireland and those without.
I may do another more detailed breakdown of these, but the work I did this weekend is just a starting point.
EDIT: Actually including the link might help!
EDIT 2: At Keith‘s suggestion the columns are now sortable and a bit of CSS magic makes this all the more obvious. Thanks to Keith for the code (and links)
From Exadium Online Marketing:
Thanks for the handy list Michele. If you’re going to create a more detailed breakdown the amount of web space and monthly transfer could be really handy.
Cheers,
Marijn Kampf

Thanks for the suggestion.
If I have the energy it would be an interesting exercise
