Website: For a typical website up to 5 GB of storage is usually recommended. This includes room for content and backups.
Emails: Using POP3, 2 GB per email account is generally sufficient.
* POP 3 means your emails will be stored on your computer so once email downloaded, it will leave space in your hosting account.
Files: Additional storage depends on the number and size of files you plan to store. Estimate based on your specific needs.
Select the plan which suits you, then proceed to the next step
Step 5 : Choosing Your Free Domain Name
After selecting your hosting plan, you’ll have the opportunity to choose your complimentary free domain name. Most of the time, .com and .net are the most preferred TLDs (Top-Level Domains) because they are widely accepted and rumored to perform well with search engines. The fewer words you select, the better the domain. Proceed to select the domain name that represents your company or brand, then click ‘Next’.
If you have your own domain that you want to utilize, click on the ‘I Already Own This Domain’ tab, and enter your domain name there to proceed.

Fill in the important details in the respective fields and double-check that your email is correct. Here are some important points to consider on the final step:
Consider opting for the 3-year plan (36 months), as it will be a better choice. If you choose the one-year plan, when you renew after the first year, the plan price will not remain the same as the current displayed price; it will be higher. If you plan to keep your website and email for more than a year and not just temporarily, it’s advisable to select the 3-year plan. Please note that whether you choose the 3-year plan or the 1-year plan, it will not affect your complimentary free web design offer! We are simply providing advice based on experience.
