the decision to host the duodenalswitch.com

website elsewhere, since I haven't heard from in a week or so, and

the site has been down for over two weeks now. He must be very busy, and

I don't want to impose on him any further if he's unable to accommodate

us.

There are pluses to going to a paid host. It means that I'll have

administrative tools that I never had before. It also means that I can

provide a duodenalswitch.com email address to anyone who wants one, with

POP3 email access. There are neat utilities and site statistic tools

that I can use, and form tools for taking polls, etc. if that is ever

needed.

The web host I chose is called HostRocket, and they are highly rated as

one of the best budget web hosting services. Here's the blurb from

http://www.100best-web-site-and-domain-hosting-services.com/top100.htm:

HostRocket

http://www.hostrocket.com/

Host Rocket is skyrocketing to the top of the hosting industry with a

unique no-contract plan and a Money Back Guarantee. They want you to try

them and be satisfied first. Their economy plan includes 350mb for just

$9.95 a month. Service features include: High bandwidth connectivity and

redundant connections, 99.5% uptime, 14-day money back guarantee,

instant account activation. Statement from their website: " We are proud

to offer the most complete and highest valued packages available

anywhere on the internet today. We offer both plenty of space for you to

store both your main site along with any side projects you are working

on, and enough bandwidth to deliver your site to thousands and thousands

of visitors a month. By keeping up to date with current software

updates, we allow you to develop high end dynamic websites to keep your

business competitive and your customers coming back. "

In order to get the best deal, which is $9.95 per month (plus a $9.95

setup fee), I signed up for two years of hosting, at a total price of

$248.75. I think it's a small price to pay for all the help the site has

given so many people! Many people have expressed an interest in

contributing to the cost, so anyone who would like to make a small

donation may Paypal to my melanie@... email address:

https://www.paypal.com/refer/pal=melanie%40themagruders.com

If you are a new Paypal user, this referral link will put $5 into my

account, so if you sign up for Paypal, you can actually donate $5 and it

won't cost you anything. Existing Paypal users unfortunately don't have

this benefit.

Thanks a bunch!

Sincerely,

Magruder, site administrator

WOW melanie this is great. Went to the site today.

Its a good thing there are computer people out there.

My husband is a programmer, network supervisor and

builds computers on the side and all I can do is turn

it on, surf the net and email. My kids know more then

I do. What a blessing you are, this site is where I

learned about the DS the first time of course I can

not remember how I ended up there. Happy to see it

back. BE HAPPY
