Websites, Domains and Hosting
Firstly I’d recommend NOT using Blogger for your new blog, but getting some decent web hosting and setting up Wordpress. Yes it’s going to cost you (hey you have to spend money to make money almost always!), but you’ll have far more control over your entire site, statistics etc
Almost all sites I write these days are Wordpress based, because it’s such a great tool - so you’re going to need some PHP capable web hosting.
Now in the spirit of trying to make money, which is what we’re all here for - I’m going to recommend my own hosting over at BetterWebSpace, if you really must go elsewhere do yourself a few favours:
- Make sure it’s a cPanel host, who has Fantastico (it will make life so much easier!).
- Make sure you’re getting enough Disk Space and Bandwidth (or can upgrade as your grow!).
- Avoid hosts offering unlimited bandwidth (it simply doesn’t exist).
- Avoid hosts with very “templatey” websites (you’ll know what I mean).
On the subject of domain names, just choose one, make it meaningful, or just catchy!
