I have been doing this site for a personal client and am getting to the final stages of completion.

Regarding the domain and hosting package, Do i pay for that myself and just stick their contact details in, i dont want to be contacted every year when the hosting runs out as it will be nothing to do with me, unless requested to do so by the client.

how do you normally do it?

cheers

If you were designing and hosting quite a few websites a reseller account would be good with a number of companies. If it's a one off and you're not too bothered about profit on it, then just register it all in their name. Some companies register it themselves so the client never receives any costing, then can charge A LOT more for it.

I'd just register both with 34sp.com

thanks, the later option of registering myself sounds good, however i have already quoted for the job including hosting and domain, would be cheeky to whack it up, i will keep that in mind!

I will get him to do it, only problem is, he is not in anyway, computer literate! lol!

I've only created one website for someone who paid. I visited them and talked them through setting the account up themselves and I just copied down the account details.

That way theres no comeback on you if they forget in a years time or anything similar.

Nigel, i have proposed this option to him, then when their hosting package expires its up to them, and from then onwards i have no contact with them unless requested.


SamboRT, I will post it up once its finished, its still in the passworded client folder at the moment.

Fingers crossed it will be within the next couple of weeks once they pull the draft to pieces.

I just found that the easiest way for me.

Look forward to seeing the finished site.
