Setting up stuff
So I finally resurrected marcushellberg.com from the slumber that it has been in for the last few years. I took advantage of the deal dreamhost had yesterday, 1 year of hosting including a domain for $9.24 for a year. In addition to transferring over marcushellberg.com i also got marcushellberg.net which only acts as a mirror for the .com domain for now.
I have to say that I’m quite impressed with how dreamhost has worked, so far at least. The domain was registered and I could access my WordPress installation that i installed using the OneClick installer in only a few minutes. I also like the fact that I get unlimited MySQL databases and can run Ruby on Rails apps, something that many hosts do not allow. SSH access was a must for me, so I’m happy that this was also included.
So, so far everything is running along nicely. It’ll still take me probably weeks to get the site fully up and running, but it’s getting there. I hope that dreamhost really is as good as it seems.
