I finally buckled down to tackle Host Solutions. There are more design quirks, but I am happy with how things are going with modifying. I actually modified from a WordPress template I am planning to put out for free so it is great to know that my WordPress theming is going great.

The design section is the next thing to tackle on the list and putting a twitter handle strictly for Host Solutions. In the meantime, you can ask me any support questions @blondishnet on Twitter and please put the hashtag – #webhosting.

Although pricing for domains have gone up, I have tried to keep packages around the normal rate, but those with older packages from back in the day, you will be needing to upgrade to the new packages so your domain price for your .com, .net, or .org are covered. The upside is that you get more bandwidth and diskspace…so yay!

I am looking into trying an affiliate program in the near future. Also, some questions that were asked and to be covered:

Q: Do you have WordPress
A: Yes, Host Solutions has WordPress as a one-click install

Q: Can Host Solutions host BuddyPress and WordPress Mu sites?
A: WordPress Mu, which BuddyPress runs off of requires wildcard domains and yes, Host Solutions offers has this, so you can have your own BuddyPress site.

Q: Are domains free?
A: No. Domains are included in the price if you do not have a domain already – for new domains only.

If you sign up during the month of June for the Emerald Package (12Gb diskspace / 60GB bandwidth – $50 per year), you will get a FREE upgrade to the Sapphire Package. The Sapphire web hosting package contains 20GB diskspace and 80GB bandwidth. That is a $25 savings per year. For those who ask, that means you would not have to pay the extra upon renewal.

For clients who purchase the Sapphire package, we offer an affiliate program where if you refere 4 people for at least the Ruby Package, your next year’s renewal is on the house! Cool, huh?

If the packages above seem a bit too huge for what you need, never fear… we have other shared hosting packages! As an extra note, we do support WordPress blogs too, for those bloggers needing a new home.

As an added note, please excuse any mess in the next month, we will be going through a site revamp.
