Big Sale on Domain Names and WordPress Hosting

My registrar NetFlint.com is having a big sale from February 1-28, 2011.

You can get a domain name for as low as $1.99 for the first year with the purchase of any non-domain product. Without another purchase, .COMs are $8.49 a year, .ORGs are $7.99, and .NETs are $7.49.

WordPress hosting with unlimited bandwidth, 10 GB Space, and 100 email accounts can be had for as low as $2.79 a month.

It’s a great deal for anyone looking to get started with a self hosted WordPress site or that is in need of a cheaper host. I’ve found them to be very helpful and reliable.
