Q: I am interested in having Yahoo! host my website. I am currently using Homestead, or Intuit. Can you advise me?

August 23rd, 2010 - Posted by Kent

Q: I am interested in having yahoo host my website.  I am currently using Homestead, or Intuit. Can you advise me?

A: We think Yahoo! is a great choice for web hosting. If you're coming from Intuit, you'll be right at home with the interface. We were generally unimpressed with Intuit's web hosting, finding it expensive and lacking in features. Depending on the Intuit plan you've been on, you could save 50% on your hosting costs. Here are two things to keep in mind as you consider making the change:

1) Transferring your domain: If you keep your same domain, you'll have to move it over to Yahoo! Fortunately, Yahoo!'s phone-based customer service is pretty great, and they should be able to guide you through the process.

2) If you used one of Intuit's templates to design your site, you probably won't be able to move it over to Yahoo! Yahoo!'s site builder is very good, however, and we think you'll be pleased with your options there.

    In the event you think about how far Joomla has come over the last several years it is really almost impossible to not be in amazement of everything that they already have accomplished. I, for just one, surely have high hopes they preserve this great job and consequently keep making the most impressive CMS on the internet.

    Today, considering the fast life style that everyone is having, credit cards have a huge demand throughout the economy. Persons coming from every area are using the credit card and people who not using the credit cards have made arrangements to apply for one in particular. Thanks for spreading your ideas about credit cards.
