Web Hosts

All web hosts are NOT created equal. Up to 90% of new users have unidentifiable problems with their theme or WordPress installation that are directly traceable back to their host.

Hosting should be transparent and of the utmost importance when you decide to start a site or when you decide to migrate to a better, more affordable solution. Here are some things to look for in a hosting plan all of which are available from HostGator.

  • several GB, if not unlimited, of storage space
  • several TB, if not unlimited, of transfer traffic
  • multiple SQL databases (at least 25-50)
  • multiple domain hosting for no extra charge
  • cPanel with Fantastico for WordPress and other automatic software installations

 

High Quality Website Images

I purchase and use images for websites from DreamsTime.com. Most high quality royalty free images cost as little as US$1 or US$2.
