Your Web Hosting Starting Place

Many times, when I meet new people around the high school games, people tend to ask me about web pages, how to host them, design them and what software to use. I think the best idea is for you to go a great page designed guide you in choosing the right web host for your website, either personal or business. Web Hosting Choice.com provides you with a searchable directory and a quick Web Host Search that allows you to specify exactly what you are looking for – monthly cost – Set Up fee – Bandwidth. They provide a quick start guide and an FAQ page that gives much better, and more in-depth, answers than I ever could – such as “What is Web Hosting?” – “What is a domain name?” and tons more. The site is easy to navigate and allows you to look at more advanced options using their Advanced Search. You will find a great list of Web Hosting Companies in their Host Directory Page. You will find over 20 specific features in their Plans Directory. And eve special hosting options in their pages for Reseller Web Hosting.

Their Learning Center is extremely useful. They offer a great page on how to avoid scams. The Learning Center is a great place for explanations on Domains, Cheap Hosting, Bandwidth, and Collocation.

If you are considering starting a site, this is the place to start. If you simply want to learn more on web pages and all the specs … take a look at http://www.webhostingchoice.com
I can assure you that is is a nice place to start, compare and contrast ... an option I wish I had when I started my site.

BBB: Sparta 70-59 Randolph


Randolph Downed by Sparta, 70-59

In the opening game of the JP Flynn Memorial Tournament, Sparta won the battle of blue colored schools with a strong third quarter. Delbarton hosted this opening round game and is a competitor.


The first half was back and forth affair with Sparta taking the early edge, 16-14 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter saw Randolph edge back with a flurry of fast break points to combat a steady dose of Sparta threes. At the half, the score was 29-27 Spartans.

In the second half, the Rams had a quick 7-2 run to take the lead off more fast breaks. After a well-placed timeout, Sparta answered with a decisive 11-1 run to put the Spartans up for good. Sparta’s half court offense was unstoppable, with each trip down the court lead to two or more points for the Spartans, but the Ram’s offense was struck in rut each time they had to slow their pace down. The majority of Randolph’s scoring came on contested jumpers or tough drives to the hoop. Meanwhile, Sparta had easy lay-ups and open looks most trips down the court. Sparta outscored Randolph 21-14 in the third period. In the fourth quarter, despite a press defense

Randolph could not close the gap.

Randolph was paced by Kyle Aiken’s 21 points and hopes to rebound in the next round. Sparta was lead by Brendan Rezny and Nick Lenker and hopes to carry over their momentum to another victory.
