So many changes! Earlier this year I set up a family blog with a hosting service called WebHostingPad.com. I paid for 2 years, resting assured that if I didn’t like their service I could get a refund during the first 30 day “evaluation period”. Little did I know that after those 30 days my account would be moved to a slow, troubled server where it would be “down” several times a week. I use quotes, because after opening a ticket with support it miraculously came back up within an hour or so, every time. I finally quit dealing with their awful support and even worse service, opened a BBB complaint, and decided to host the site on my desktop at home. I have a quad-core Vista Ultimate machine with 4GB ram on a 10Mbit connection just sitting at home, doing nothing.
