Who host your blog?

I started blogging in late 2006. My first blog was a Dotnetnuke blog so I had to have it hosted on a Windows based server. The company I was using was ASPnix. They were a highly recommended web host and I didn’t have any problems with them unless I had a problem. That doesn’t make [...]

Before, Dotnetnuke was the framework I used at Jonzee.com but I got spoiled when I started this blog, using Wordpress.
