hosting: Web Site 101 - Registering a Domain Name with Hosting - 12/03/09 09:12 AM

Domain names need to be memorable. Most of the really great geographic names were taken in the first year or two of the World Wide Web in the mid nineties. Try getting Chicago.com or newyork.com and you'll see what I mean.
Fortunately your challenge to find a name for your farm that is short and memorable shouldn't be that hard. Subdivision and neighborhood names are often available and there are growing Top Level Domains like ".us" that still have a lot of names available.

hosting: Web site and blog 101- choosing a host - 10/04/07 02:17 AM
I've had a few people ask me about hosting their own web sites and blogs. Like everything else in life, this can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be. We have all seen "stock" sites offered by hosting companies. If you search on google for "real estate web site builder" you'll see both paid and organic search results for many, many firms.
