501(c)3

Recommendation

A domain name will be a good foundation to invest in to start a website. I suggest GoDaddy.com for the following reasons:

• Free starter web page, web hosting and email
• Internet leader in domain name registration and web hosting
• Around the clock customer and phone support
• Top web hosting provider in the world
• Free onsite monitoring and physical security
• Most cost-effective service

Establishing a domain name

Branding is a very important part of the promotion process as it will create an image and it’s an easy reference point for members to focus on. It will also create a sense of professionalism which will pay dividends at all levels. Obtaining a domain name is rather simple: figure out a name for the website, and go to the Internet Service Provider and check the availability. Then, purchase the domain name and look into finding a web host.

Finding web hosts
After purchasing a domain name, it is required to obtain a web hosting plan. With our limited resources, the best way to go about this is to go with the best deal possible. This is what you requested, so I have done some research and created a table above to show the comparison between the top ISPs to host a (.org) 501(c)3 website. GoDaddy.com creates a simple way to put the organization on the web and below is a table that compares the pricing of GoDaddy.com to some other popular domain carriers.

A .ORG domain is the best choice for nonprofits, foundations, philanthropic and cultural institutions, and religious, civic, arts, and social organizations.

• .ORG domain name is perfect because it’s of the original top-level domains (TLDs)
• .ORG is the domain of choice for organizations dedicated to serving the public interest
• .ORG is considered one of the most trusted domains on the Internet

GoDaddy.com is the internet leader in domain name registration and web hosting. They are one of the few domain and hosting companies that still does this. Purchasing GoDaddy.com as the web host would create a substantial discount so the website can be constructed immediately. GoDaddy.com hosting is the #1 web hosting provider in the world.
