Hi David, I am delighted with my host .... Dreamhost.com Sometimes they have big specials ... and my hosting was about $70 per year for 2 years ... unlimited sites!! And WordPress one click installs! Their tech support is by email ... and it is fantastic!! I have had people stay over on a shift to help me with something ... and it is 24/7 support - great from my experience. Their forms are pretty easy - much easier than GoDaddy (I did some forms for a client hosted there). They have a free shopping cart ... but most of them do They are a green host - so they are carbon neutral if I remember right. Small and wanting to stay small, not be bought out. The amount of storage was through the roof - just gigantic! The registration process for domain names is simple as pie (well, ok, simpler). If you use them, you could be referred by me and I would get a credit - unless you get a fantastic deal - which hopefully you would get a current deal instead. I also work on someone's site using Bluehost.com and they seem fine. Much better than my experiences at GoDaddy. I forget which other ones my clients use ... there were sort of ok - but Dreamhost I love! Good luck deciding! http://dreamhost.com/ They do have a special - looks the one I got - very very good I think!! Look at the bandwidth and storage!! * 500 GB Disk Storage * 5 TB Monthly Bandwidth * Plus many more features! * Sign up now for $5.95/mo* * depending on pre-payment. To me, I would do this ... and with this special no referral, so I have absolutely nothing to gain! Diane Clancy www.dianeclancy.com If there At 10:52 AM -0500 11/5/07, DAVID F.
