It is amazing the number of clients needing WordPress and saying that their previous host did not support the script. Well, Host Solutions does! WordPress is offered as an automatic install through Fantastico Deluxe. The script can also be automatically installed too, for those who like to install their scripts on their own.

As for server resources (cpu usage) concerning your blogging, unless a site is used for downloading mp3 and videos, then there should be no issues. Host Solutions does have a policy for using others work, so if you are hosting mp3 or videos, the work must be yours, or you must have a license for it to prove that you may redistribute the work. Also, please do remember mp3 and video do take up bandwidth and diskspace.

Host Solutions can answer questions anytime concerning the Content Management System and blogging platform known at WordPress. :)

Bloggers Welcomed!

A big trend these days online is blogging. There are many places a person can blog, but not every free and hosted place online gives the control that a self-hosted blogger gets.

In self-hosting your blog:

  • You have more control over your files
  • You can see your site statistics in more depth
  • You can install the necessary precautions to protect your blog and files
  • You can make money in more places
  • You can make sub-sites or subfolders, and install other scripts (like a forum) as additional features of your blog

The other part is that you can install what blog platform you wish to use. Whether you like Joomla, WordPress, b2evolution, which are scripts offered through cPanel Fantastico Deluxe, you will be able to comfortably blog anytime you wish.

With WordPress in particular, you can import RSS feeds and even blog entries from various places onlike, like Blogspot and LiveJournal. You can even host your friend’s blogs too and give them a subdomain, email and ftp account. It gives them the ability to share your experience of self-hosting a blog.
