I’ve been in-and-out of the blogging world for the last 5 years. I started my blog in Xanga (I even have 2 accounts), then came Friendster’s own blog, and then this blog. Back then, my blogs were more of personal stuff and I used them as my online journal. I’m not familiar with monetizing a blog at that time. But I suddenly lost my enthusiasm to write and became conscious of divulging more personal things in the Internet that’s why I stopped. Later on, with much love to the Internet, I re-embraced blogging but on a more focused, interesting direction. There came this Everything Nice! blog, from the name itself, I basically write anything that catches my fancy especially on food, travel and shopping. Oh, and not to mention the extra moolah that blogging can give…
Unlike the first blogs that I started, I wanted to keep this blog for good. I want to inform and share to everyone a little something from my daily experiences. The Internet is teeming with information and also teeming with readers eager to read just about anything, from fashion, food, technology, humor, etc… To be able to have my own nook in this World Wide Web, I’m thinking of having my own domain. But I’m still weighing my options if I will really get serious in blogging. Aside from that, I’m a newbie when it comes to web hosting and where to acquire one. Is there a shop for this? Hahaha, honestly, I’m clueless!
I stumbled on Web Hosting Geeks, a site that features reviews on different Web hosting providers. I browsed through their Top 10 Web Hosting, Best Budget Hosting, Best Blog Hosting, etc.. The bottom part of the homepage has some articles about all there is to know about web hosting. Looks like I need to do some reading now. I found out that there are many things to consider in buying a domain. Host reliability, storage, technical support and the PRICE are among other things that need to be considered before selecting a provider. Good thing there’s Web Hosting Geek, I can compare Web hosting providers rate by their best price-value ratio.
