Hey all, I'm in the final stages of setting up a web hosting and domain registration company, EagleHost, which will be launching (if all goes according to plan) on 1 Feb. I can give you an idea of pricing:
Domain Registrations:
.co.za R75
.web.za R75
.org.za R75
.net.za R75
.capetown R200
.durban R200
.joburg R200
.info R160
.com R200
.net R200
.org R200
.biz R200
.mobi R200
.xyz R200
Shared Hosting:
100MB storage/1GB monthly bandwidth R95/year[SUP]1[/SUP]
1GB storage/10GB monthly bandwidth R25/month, R70/3 months, R250/year
3GB storage/30GB monthly bandwidth R75/month, R210/3 months, R750/year[SUP]2[/SUP]
5GB storage/50GB monthly bandwidth R120/month, R360/3 months, R1200/year[SUP]3[/SUP]
10GB storage/100GB monthly bandwidth R200/month, R600/3 months, R2000/year[SUP]4[/SUP]
All of the above come with unlimited mailboxes of unlimited size[SUP]5,6[/SUP] (as long as you have available disk space). Many hosting providers limit you to, for example, five mailboxes of 20MB each, which I don't agree with. If you're paying for storage you should be able to use it however you see fit. The above also allow an unlimited number of databases[SUP]5,6[/SUP].
Notes
[SUP]1[/SUP] The 100MB package is only available as an annual subscription
[SUP]2[/SUP] Includes a free .co.za domain when applying for one year
[SUP]3[/SUP] Includes a free .co.za, .net.za, .org.za or .web.za domain when applying for one year
[SUP]4[/SUP] Includes a free .co.za, .net.za, .org.za, .web.za, .capetown, .durban, .joburg, .org, .net, .com or .info, .mobi, .biz or .xyz domain when applying for one year
[SUP]5[/SUP] Excludes the 100MB package, which is limited to five email addresses and one database.
[SUP]6[/SUP] There are no limits so long as it doesn't adversely affect the resource usage on the servers. You will be alerted should your account place high load on the servers.
