There are some hosting services that offer the name free and in another hosting services you’ll have to pay for domain and hosting separate. So you’ll have to see what’s convenient for you.

Many companies offer different types of hosting service depending on your needs, like a hosting service for a simple website, or you want to have a store on line or an ecommerce site or you are going to create your website with simple text or with other kind of programming like perl, java script or others, then you need other kind of hosting.

Other things you need to consider is how much space are you going to need? How many pages your website is going to have? Is it going to have flash animation, a lot of pictures, and a lot of forms you want you clients to fill out for you? How many email addresses you want to use in your website? (Like support@yourdomain.com, johndoe@yourdomain.com, sales@yourdomain.com) You really need to consider and think about it before making a decision in getting a hosting service. There are plans that only offer 1 there are some that can offer 100 email addresses.
