quandum:

Personally I would recommend Sitehost (www.sitehost.co.nz) simply because they are a very professional, well run business.

Altuntively i could happily sort you out with some free hosting with your current requirements.

Legend, thanks for that will check them out and also give you a shout on here :-)

On to step 2.....domain name, design / designer (need a professional looking site rather than something made in publisher....)

So, any recommendations for a good webby? Just need a very basic site for now to give my company an online identity.....I saw a couple of $250or so packages....has anyone use / can you recommend any?

Please keep in mind, it is a very small operation at this stage, and obviously has budget constraints....
