Blog created & First steps on getting your own REAL website up & running!

Hi there!

This blog has been just created, and here we go for the first step in getting yourself a "proper" website!

What's a "proper" website?
That means that you have the ultimate control over your website, code & technicals, graphics, functionality, anything!
Unlike blogging services like this (as easy as they are), aren't "proper" ones, but a quick fix for it :)

So what i can do there?
Just about anything you've seen on the web!
Become creative, and make things happen!
you might just create a simple page with static content (no content management etc. manually updated via editing HTML), or dynamic, using your custom or an open-source system to do it, like WordPress, b2Evolution, Post-Nuke, PHPNuke etc.

Where can i acquire such a service & what it costs?
Cost is less than a burger meal @ McDonald's, sometimes only a fraction of it, but beware, you need to choose a quality host which won't go under all of sudden!
I recommend checking out ArticHost
There you will get quality service, with unmatchable price : quality ratio! You get more for your cash :)

How do you order Hosting services & what i get?
You goto the website, create yourself an account to the billing system, choose a hosting package, click order, choose yourself a domain name using the checkup functions etc.
and proceed to checkout, after payment, in some time (5mins to 24hrs) you should receive an e-mail of hosting account & domain setup.
You will get access to cPanel, in where is included Fantastico (atleast at ArticHost), from Fantastico you can easily install some open source blogging or cms system, like b2Evolution, Drupal or Joomla (formerly known as Mambo).
