Pif’s Corner has moved…and changed
I finally accepted the fact that using Community Server to power the pifalo.com site was overkill…we get too little traffic to justify using CS. I like CS, and in fact I develop on the platform for work, but it was time to move.
And what a move. After struggling to work with Brinkster to properly set up my WordPress application, I gave them up too. I’m not at all sad to leave Brinkster as I have found their services and support to be very lacking, especially since I was on the Professional plan. For what I was paying a month, I really should have gotten at the very least better support.
So I looked into other hosts, with an eye for supporting WordPress. I finally settled on Bluehost, and so far I am very happy. Set up went extremely well, and with a quick NS change at GoDaddy the new server was responding to the domain. I’ve got a ton of great services too – all self-service no less. I can set up sub-domains and file permissions on my own – no need to go through support like with Brinkster.
So with all these changes, I’ve decided to give my blog it’s own subdomain – alteredprose.pifalo.com. But you knew that already, since you’re here.
OK, now I just need to claim my Technorati feed. More news to come once I’ve finally settled on all the bits for the site.
