Moving on

I tried quite a few times to set up blogging software on my website. Thanks everyone who made suggestions. Unfortunately, every time I tried something, my hosting provider said "we don't support that" or "we can't do that".

So goodbye to 1and1.

I've switching providers to one that has PHP under ASP, has all the latest versions, unlimited space and throughput, supports Wordpress, Dot Net Nuke and more and is half the price of 1and1.

Hello Arvixe. I'll let you know how they work out. One thing I like already is that they have 24 hour on-line chat support. 1and1 didn't.

Arvixe is $5/mo for ASP and $4/mo for Linux.

I was going to ask you about that this weekend. What was good about your host because they seemed kind of unhelpful.

Yeah, unhelpful, limited and apparently only seemed cheap 'cause I hadn't done any research recently.

Yay for finding something better! :)

I'm hoping it is! Fortunately, it comes with a 60 day money back gaurantee.
