I tried sending you a contact form, but it did not work as it’s asking for some validation code. I guess it may be something to do with CAPTURE, but I am not familiar with it?

All the best indeed! I haven’t found the best way to monetize this blog yet so hopefully yours can do better!

You know what I like about going back to blogs that I usually hop to? When they have such a neat list of helpful tips like this! I love the comparison to animals, I am a fan of comparison at times. I think it was clever!

Which web host (to purchase a domain before dl wordpress.org’s software) would you recommend?

Reply to this comment

Michael Aulia June 17, 2010 at 9:42 am

Hi Cecilia, I’d recommend highly Hostgator, the web host that I’m using now. Are you just getting a domain name or do you want to get the web hosting account as well?

If you just want to buy a domain name, might want to browse elsewhere cheaper but Hostgator web hosting package is of high quality support and speed (compared to my previous one)

Cecilia June 17, 2010 at 3:08 pm

Hi Michael,
I was thinking of getting a domain to fulfill the first step of wordpress.org
What do you mean by web hosting account?

Thanks for the reply.

Michael Aulia June 17, 2010 at 3:23 pm

Oh, basically if you buy a domain name, you need to point it to somewhere. You need an online storage to store your files, your website, your blog, emails, etc.

A web hosting package normally has this included with a domain name. So if you want to open a Wordpress blog with your own domain name, you need the whole package, and not just a URL :)

I hope this is clear. If you are new to setting up your own website or blog online, I’d suggest to google around to understand the terms better
