Hosting your website
Tips on website hosting
Hosting your website means, loosely translated, where you will store the files that make up your site so that others on the Internet can have access to them.
Sorry if that’s over-simplistic for some people, but when I first started out on-line I had no idea what hosting was but everyone assumed I knew!
Deciding where to host your website and/or blog is not a decision to be made lightly. Unfortunately I DID make it lightly, because I didn’t understand all the implications. Hopefully reading this wil help you avoid the mistakes I made.

Head in the Clouds, Speeding up my Blog
So, it’s time to review the week – yet again. At one level it’s been a very productive week, doing the work for my book-keeping clients, but my Internet and Hair Analysis work takes a hit. Never mind, at the moment the book-keeping is the more profitable!
Speeding up my Blog
But I have
made some progress – and the cloud by the side is a clue. Those of you who follow Jan Kearney’s blog will have read about the Cloudinary plugin, where you host your images on the Cloud, to speed up your blog’s image load time.
