New host for our blogs

I had been, for a few years, hosting my blogs on my Mac G5 desktop from my home. I was using the updatedd dynamic DNS client to keep the world able to find me by host name, which was hit and miss sometimes with my DNS provider.

After waiting a month for my ISP to deliver a fixed IP address, I decided to host my blogs off-site with a professional hosting service.

Enter DreamHost.

They were second on the list of recommended hosting services at wordpress.org.  No content censorship.  Their sales staff answered my questions about multiple domains and blogs in minutes.  They got my business, no problem.

Setting up a new blog is really about as simple as a few clicks.  Moving a blog from one server to another isn’t quite so easy, but I did it.  Not without a few minor glitches, but those were caused by customizations on my Mac, not with my new hosting service.

The Skepdick is now professionally hosted, availability and speed should be far superior than what I could deliver over a residential DSL line.

Got to give a thumbs up to DreamHost.
