We were talking last night about adding yet another wordpress blog to our hosting panel at Hostgator and I started to realise how much we get for our money - $9.95 a month for all our hosting requirements. We can host unlimited subdomains, 999 add-on domains, plus unlimited MySQL databases. I seem to have nine MySQL databases installed, and I hope one day I will work out the reason for them. We also have an unlimited disk space allowance and 50,000 mB of bandwidth (of which we used two per cent this month). The real beauty for me is the ease with which I can create new Wordpress Blogs. The process takes literally seconds and uploading different themes via File Transfer Protocol is simple. I have tried three other hosting companies before I found Hostgator a year ago. The transfer process was hassle free and whenever I have needed help I have used their online chat facility. You can sign up with Hostgator now, and give yourself an easy time.

OR you can sign up for the Richjerk Newsletter and he will give you a FREE website that you can display, and also use the template design to start you off. Get Your Free Website Design Here - the page was supplied to us as a free offer from the munificent Rich Jerk, and I think it looks pretty good.

I have redesigned the Wordpress theme on this blog, no longer am I restricted to using the default or Kubrick template now that I have got to grips with uploading new themes. I am not completely happy with the header, I would like to be able to place written copy over the header illustration. But I am happy with the three column layout. So far, so good.
