Best Hosting for a weebly site?

csh_2

Hello, I've been working on a Weebly site to use for a small business/hobby.
I want to purchase and assign my own .co.uk domain and get a hosting package but unsure who would be best, or if all hosts would support the weebly site?
I am a total beginner with this sort of thing and really would need something simple to operate to assign the weebly site to...if I can?!

Thanks for any help!

I've never used Weebly, I'm more of a wordpress guy but I have always hosted my sites on Hostgator and have never had a reason to move away from them.

They are cheap on their online support is excellent. Maybe it's worth checking them out? And for domain registering i've always used Namecheap.

I bought the web address for 2 years and used free Weebly to host it - took 10 mins to get our website up and running.

Was that weebly you bought the web address from? They only give me an option for .com.
If I buy a domain elsewhere would weebly still host it for free?
Sorry for really silly questions! I've been googling but a lot of the answers are geared towards American audience.

A1reno: I can't get on with Wordpress at all. Weebly is really simple to use in comparison, reckon a 5 yr old could do it better than me!

No I bought it from Fasthosts. £7.08 for an .org web address for 2 years. Bazinga!

You could buy the domain from (for example) easily.co.uk, then just set up 'web forwarding' (technically it's just a frame with the other site presented inside). Unless you need the address bar to show the actual page name, it is a very cheap and simple option, takes all of 2 minutes to set up, and nothing changes with your weebly account whatsoever, your new domain just aliases/redirects to it.

Weebly is a website builder. If you would like to build a website on your own, you can try buy a domain name first.
.co.uk is a good choice, and it's cheap. :beer:

Here are some popular sites:
uk.godaddy.com
123-reg.co.uk
1and1.co.uk
name.com

If you are a beginner, you may try a free hosting at the beginning.

Here are some free web hosting:
monkeypie.com
000webhost.com
freehostia.com

They all provide free subdomain, so if you haven't got a own domain name, that is fine.
If you would like a friendly control panel, you may try monkeypie
