Rick : my house is pretty old so I dont know if it has any internet plugs or anything Rick : will it cost extra to put some in? Michael : we are not a internet service provider, we web hosting, meaning if you had a website and needed to host it with us we provide that service Rick : you mean I can have my own website?
