Sorry, this has little to do with my work or art, but…<\/p>\n

I’ve been recommending hostgator<\/a> to students and friends for years – they are fantastic: never down, have a great control panel, huge amounts of space and resources, unlimited domains and traffic, and I’ve never waited more than 1 minute when entering the live chat for support – no matter what time of day or night. For $10 a month (and yes, they have both cheaper and more expensive options), I get 600GB of space, unlimited traffic, unlimited databases and all kinds of open source goodies (php, mysql, wordpress, zencart, cpanel, fantastico, joomla, mambo – you name it, it’s available for one-click install). Now, I’ve signed up for their affiliates program. Bear in mind that I’ve been recommending them anyhow (and probably would have made a LOT of money had I signed up long ago), so this is not just to make me some cash (tho I’d love it if you did): they are really great.<\/p>\n

Thinking of getting a site, changing servers, or sharing domain services? USE HOSTGATOR<\/a>.<\/p>\n
