People were staring. 2. Gin Jenny apparently hates all trees and raccoons. 3. I’m so glad you talked about learning to read comics! It IS an acquired skill that I do not yet have. Will look into Scott McCloud.

Thanks for the tips. I finally did it last night. I didn’t have to do any domain name change as for the past year, I was using a custom domain.

I decided to go with bluehost too 🙂

This site is currently only running a wordpress plug-in. If you go with a hosting service that offers a 1-click WordPress install, it couldn’t be easier. (This site uses Bluehost. They go down sometimes, but we haven’t had any big issues.) I would also register the domain name with the same company I am using for hosting if I had it to do over again. All your customer service is in one place, and you won’t have to point your DNS servers, which was the hardest part of setting this site up.

Oo. Let me kick that one over to Randon, as he’s the one who handled the technical side of things for the switch. I can tell you that WordPress has a plug-in that will silently redirect your old URL to your new one, for something like $15/year.

Thanks! Next time we’ll try to review a series of comics we (I) enjoyed more. :p

Hmmm, interesting! You don’t read any comics at all, whatsoever?

Saving it up for the weekend.

Totally unconnected question. I am thinking of going self-hosted wordpress just like you, and overall I am game, but also feeling scared.

Just wanted to know how different the experience was for you. Did you install any additional plug-ins? any gotchas that I need to look out for?

I am one of the people A-L was talking about…I do not even try to read comics. I also have trouble with signs that don’t have text.
