Most webmasters know that a majority of web hosting services can charge 100 dollars or more for webhosting (includes SQL and other necesities)....
The following information will help your team save alot of money... All you need is a computer, that you can leave on...
I have found that the Apache Server system, is the most commonly used server system, by website hosting services, including: Godaddy, Doteasy, and FreeWebs... You want to know how much money the Apache server system costs??? $0 dollars... So you can install it on a vacant system, that you can leave on. It works just as well as the hosts, and you can get the SQL database installed on that system too.
The only downside: You are responsible for the maintenance... It's not a huge task, but it's worth a try... It installs on any system running Linux or Windows...
