I do all my secure web hosting with Firehost. That means sites that take credit cards, have customer databases, etc. Firehost RULES at this.
But then there’s all those “random idea” sites. I don’t need the full scale bells-and-whistles hosting I get from Firehost. And I definitely don’t want to deal with ANY complexity.
I want to think of the idea, buy the domain name, get a WordPress template up, get an email address, and off I’m running.
My requirements for my new wordpress web host are:
- VERY simple to launch (the site AND the email account)
- VERY simple to maintain (1 click upgrades to the latest version)
- VERY simple to move away from if I didn’t like em.
- (Oh yeah, and VERY inexpensive.)
As the saying goes, keep it simple stupid!
Enter Page.ly, a relatively new wordpress hosting company from Tempe, AZ putting a SIMPLE spin on wordpress (and email) hosting.
Page.ly’s Setup Wizard
Now that was SIMPLE!!
I love it. Couldn’t have been any easier. Now I’m just waiting for the Nameserver changes to propagate so I can login and get going. Since I’m familiar with WordPress, that should be a breeze.
Big 
on my face so far.
(But if I don’t like it, there’s no longterm contract so I’m only risking $15. Perfect!)

You could be new to the hosting world or a seasoned veteran but you always want easy web hosting. Everyone offers easy web hosting but is it truly user friendly?
Does it give you options to control every aspect of your hosting plan?
Or Even let you switch from Linux to Windows or the other way around as you need?
RnRStuff.COM does.
Just in case you mess up. Just change it around to suit what it is you need. It is very user friendly for newbies or long time webmaster. And will make your experience with web hosting a great one. It has a huge database of information to help you understand your whole easy web hosting experience.
It’s truly a easy web hosting company with all the software you could ever need to run any type of website at cheap prices. Transfer all your stuff to RnRStuff.com and save hundreds of dollars a year.
The thing that I appreciate about Page.ly is their focus on WordPress. Wordpress is just a CMS, like the hundreds of other CMSes out there. But it has a good brand name and loyal following. And so if non-tech John Smith gets it into his head that he needs a Wordpress blog, Page.ly makes it VERY easy and VERY affordable to get it all up and running.
But that’s just my two cents. If you’re a non-techy and you don’t need a blog, but instead need more of a “billboard” site, consider Weebly. I’ve become a really, REALLY big fan of Weebly.
im normally bouncing all across the web almost all of the afternoon as a result I tend to read a ton, which isnt normally a beneficial factor as many of the web pages I visit are made up of useless crap copied from similar web sites a thousand times, however I have to compliment you because this site is indeed quite informative and provides some unique content, therefore kudos for breaking the trends of merely duplicating other folks’ websites
Have you thought to be adding extra videos on your blog articles to help keep the readers a lot more interested? I mean I just read over the article of yours and it was quite great but since I’m really a visual learner,I discovered that to become more helpful. Just my my idea, Good luck
