You and me both! I have been using Dreamhost for over 10 years and have grown to trust their backup system. I still use SVN on my local server for anything a client pays me for, just in case ;) And that's in a virtual environment (paranoid to the extreme) which gets backed up onto a separate hard drive.

I like your style :) Side note know I dont feel like I am the only one who backs up my backups' backup :banana:

If you want to pay for premium it's fine but I can assure you that in 4 years of hosting my own site even with the content I have (which includes lots of pictures) I still have lots of space unused and I only have the lowest hosting service for my site. ;)

I would start with the smallest plan and upgrade if necessary however I doubt you will need to upgrade.

Oh. I was looking at them and thought when it said 5 pages it means you only get five pages on your site. Does it mean something else?

I work for Deluxe and we offer web design, logo design, hosting and also internet marketing for small businesses. I'm not sure on pricing but I can check it out monday. It's a great option for people that don't have the time or resources to do it on their own

I am not talking about their 5 pages deal but their economy plan http://www.godaddy.com/hosting/web-h...dplink&ci=9009 which is compatible with Wordpress.

The 5 pages refers to a specific template. You can always add more later on, it just may not be in the template.

I design websites and also offer hosting packages ;)

LOL. If it gets too much for you, feel free to PM me.

Otherwise, good luck! Web design is a ton of fun

I'd like to remind you that advertising should be kept out of the main forum and either be in the for sale forum or taken to PM

Thanks

We used yahoo site builder. It is easy and looks pretty good too!!!
