Andre,

I have to agree with Michael about using Bluehost.com.

I set up a blog for a client last night using their service.

1. Gave me free domain by prepaying for a year. I like to prepay if I know it is a reliable service. It's just less hassle that way. And cheaper.

2. In less than 1 minute I had a sales professional on the phone answering
a domain name related question.

3. In less than 1 minute 30 seconds had a support tech on the phone who answered an IP related question. I spoke to him about this and they take big pride in providing exceptional tech support. Everytime I have called bluehost, I have gotten a knowledgeable support tech ON THE PHONE within minutes. That to me is worth a lot more money than the $7.95 a month they charge for their hosting service.

Last thing I want with a website related problem is a "ticket".

4. Installed wordpress using fantastico within three minutes.

In other words, I love their service. But their support really sold me.

Gary
