Thanks for stopping by imfeelingwrite, but unfortunately Andrea is no longer offering hosting. Much to my dismay as she was a really great service provider.

I’ve been looking for a host, think I found it. This post was convincing but your hand on approach here really is the cincher. Good shit.

Good information here. The article and comments are useful to anyone who blogs. However I’m going to stick with blogger since it is free. If I ever decide to get serious and try to make money off blogging it would be worth paying a little bit for a domain name.

Cheers!

Exactly! Load time is everything! No one is patient online! Let me know how the switch goes for you!

Holy cow, you’ve completely convinced me. Andrea, we’ll be talking soon. Thanks for the nice review and thanks to Frugal Rules for chipping in too.

One thing I also want to mention is how important load time is. If a site takes more than a couple seconds to load, people will move on. This alone is reason enough to move to Nuts and Bolts.

Integrator, I'll tell you the same thing I told Marvin above. Bluehost provides prorated refunds for all customers should you cancel and switch to another website hosting provider. In my case, I was approximately two months into my 12-month contract. Bluehost refunded the remaining days in my contract within a couple days of my noticification of cancellation. Bluehost has a helpdesk page titled Cancelling the Hosting Account, where they detail the process of ending your hosting relationship with them. Evaluate now, because the difference is service is night and day!

I’m also in a 3 year contract with Bluehost (of which I’ve only used up 3 months!), but I’ll also be evaluating other options when its time to renew

I have seen Andrea around the blogosphere and have heard/seen nothing but good things. I’m currently in a 3 year contract with bluehost but will definitely look towards nuts and bolts media when my contract is up.
