Web Design & Online Tools

Godaddy – Although Godaddy throws too many ads and upsells but their prices are really low. You can register a .Com domain for just $1.99

Godaddy Transfer – Transfer Domains to Go daddy and get 1 Year Free Extension

Name Cheap – I like Namecheap for its neat and hasselfree interface. Domain names for as low as $3.98  Unlike Godaddy, Namecheap doesn’t bombard you with ads and upsells.

Host Gator – I have been using Hostgator for the past 8 years now and never had any problem. I highly recommend Hostgator. Get the first month of hosting for just one penny ($0.01), use the Coupon Code  SHANGRILA9

HostGator India Hostgator India was launched not too long ago and it is a good news for users from India. They offer the option to choose the server location – US Servers and India Servers. The servers located in India are good for Local India businesses as the sites will load faster. The prices of both are not necessarily same. For some plans the prices are same but the diskspace and other features may differ so do good reading before buying.

Payment Gateway

2CheckOut – Out all the payment gateways out there, we found this the best for Indian Merchants. Among other payment gateways some accept only domestic payments and for international payments you have to pay extra. There is Paypal but with Paypal you cannot accept domestic payments through Indian Debit and Credit Cards.

Online Shopping

AMAZON – I compare price of products on different shopping sites and retail shops before I buy and Amazon offers the lowest price and best deals on most of the products. And not to mention, their service is excellent.

ALIBABA

FLIPKART – Flipkart is another shopping site that I often use. Their offers and deals are also very competitive. It is an Indian company based in India. Flipkart does not deliver items internationally.

SNAPDEAL – Great offers. Good discounts. Click here for a special discount.

Meru Cabs – I use Meru very often. Meru have three different fleets – Meru (Sedan), Meru Plus (Sedan) and Meru Genie. The fare of Meru Genie is just Rs.10/KM after the initial 6KM (cheaper than Auto Rickshaw).
