Qbrushes, It is $49.95 a month for semi dedicated hosting (only 3 users). Jon, This was the reason I changed, it just couldn't keep up and I use caching. Micah, Dainis

It is $49.95 a month for semi dedicated hosting (only 3 users).

Jon,
This was the reason I changed, it just couldn’t keep up and I use caching.

Up until about six months before I started I thought they were just diaries online. Why would anyone want to share their personal life like that. Then a coworker suggested I check out one he'd heard of (and of course I wasted an afternoon clicking from one blog to another, following links), and someone else said "You could do that," and last August I started writing without a blog to see if I really felt like I could keep up, and boom!

Richard, Yeah awstats all the way :) Thanks for the recommendation. StyleTime, Set a goal and go for it! I have to laugh when I set a goal back in January to have 1000 subscribers by the end of the year. Blogging is addictive. Andrew, Every time JCD has hit the front page of Digg the site has been brought down but only for a few hours. I am not so concerned about it as it still registers around 50,000 hits while it is up but it would be nice to survive the digg effect... but without the price tag. Thanks for the tip on CommentLuv also. Peter, Thanks... being compared to Google, that is awesome! Sean, Had a quick look, it is like what you said... simple. Have you had a look at the many free themes available on the web? Brian, I did consider it however it is just another complication whenever you have to change hosts however if I ever choose to go to an Australian server I would have to do this as bandwidth here is so expensive in comparison. Kelly, Thank you and yeah it is quite impressive in just 9 months, particularly because I hadn't even heard about blogging before (other than for a personal diary). Vin,
