I got into blogging a little bit differently than most other people. I already had two very large websites and domains of my own when I decided to create my own blog. Since I had my own domain already I just used the fantastico software in my C-Panel to install my very first version of WordPress onto one of my sites directories.
Most people start blogging by creating a blog on one of the free sites – wordpress.com, blogger, blogspot, xanga, Vox, LiveJournal etc but often, they end up purchasing their own domain and seek hosting because those free sites have too many rules. If you don’t play by the rules you could lose your site – perhaps a blog that you’ve worked on for years.
My sites have been hosted with one particular company for the last two years but I’m starting to become dissatisfied with them. The server that my domains are on has the heaviest load and it seems to go down every night somewhere between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. it’s usually only down for a half hour or so, but if I’m in the middle of the post or doing something time sensitive I don’t want my hosting to go down at all. Plus, as I said it’s usually the middle of the night when my hosting goes down. I’m tired, working on something and I just want to finish and go to bed and grrrrr all of a sudden I find I can’t publish my post. I hate that!
So, I wanted to tell you about “CheapHostingdirectory.com”. They List many different types of web hosts and have sorted them in easy to find listings such as the top 10 web hosts, 15 best budget web hosts, Top 10 Unix & Linux Hosting, Top 10 Reseller Web Hosts, Best Special Hosting Deals and Exchange Web Hosting.
They also have listings for the current price of domain registration at many of the top web hosting sites. I like that. The next time I’m going to create a new domain I’m going to the site to find out who currently has the lowest prices. They even have listings for expired domains that you can purchase if you like the names.
I think I’m going to use the site to browse through all the different web hosts and see if I can find one that has a good price, good bandwidth and a lot of storage space for all of my many sites, and then I might move everything over from my current host.
You might want to visit the site as well if you are looking for a new web hosting or looking to begin your first domain and need web hosting for it.
