Step # 2 – Hosting Packages
If you want to start a website you will also need hosting and this is another feature of the GoDaddy site. Click the “Get website hosting” link at the top of the page. You will be taken to a page where you can see the different hosting deals, these are charged on a monthly basis. These packages allow you to build a website on GoDaddy’s servers and it can be used in conjunction with a domain name purchased from the site or elsewhere.
