Many of my friends have asked for advice with regards blog hosting and its advantages. And of course everyone wants to know .. what kind of money we are talking about hosting your own blog. As you all know, I’m not very technically inclined nor I am very internet savvy but one thing I know .. and that is very important to me is .. if i have my blog hosted by a reliable web hosting company, I will not fear of losing all my years of writing.. and patiently documenting my daughter’s growth and achievement. Losing all my entry was the greatest fear I had working with a free provider.

For a very small price, you can afford a hosting and design service. Starting at $9.99, for a Movable Type Hosting, which includes, free installation and initial configuration of Movable Type (very, very helpful to woman like me, who knows absolutely nothing about installation and configuration). A step-by-step video tuturial, free upgrades when new versions of MT is released. Helping you to transfer your account from an cPanel host, free account setup and of course they don’t force you to have long-term contracts thus making it so much less stressful for you. They are so efficient that you new blog can be up and running on your own domain name within hours.

So start blogging with a quality host, that is affordable, efficient, flexible and most importantly, willing to help you set up. Wordpress hosting starts as cheap as $6.99/month with disk space of 1GB.
