Free Charity Websites

Hi, I am administrator for a small charity, I have been told there are several companies that give free webspace etc for charities to build a website, can anyone recommend a good and simple one please? Thanks MIC:beer:

It would be best to Google "Free websites for charities" then work through the results to see if anything suits; Just to start you off:

www.freetocharities.org.uk
www.simplewebsitedesigns.co.uk
http://www.sported.org.uk/news/national-news/free-websites

I hope that you will get some responses from people who have actually used some of these free website offers.

It's free for a reason! The templates are very similar and are preset so you could well have the same design as a million other people.

After two years they will hit you with a renewal fee which won't be pretty!

There are some very cheap hosting deals on Ebay - from 99p unlimited hosting.

Domain Reg fee would be on top, but your still looking at less than £10 a year add free unlimted hosting that is regsitered to yourself rather than having the issues steve1980 mentions.

There is a lot more to it than a domain name and a web host.
