Finding the right software for your blog can be a challenge with so many options available. To help we’ve put together a little article detailing the primary services out there. Here’s a blurb:

The first thing you need to undestand about blogs is that there are two main types: hosted and self-install. Some of the blogs offer both versions, but basically what this means is with hosted you will simply join a service somewhere and the blog software is ready to go. The second type, self-install is a bit more tricky for the less tech savvy user. You’ll need to find a hosting service and then install the software yourself. Either way the real question here is which blog service is going to best fit your needs so let’s have a quick overview of the main blogging software options.

It’s often difficult to know what type of web hosting you need so we’ve written an article explaining the various types. Hopefully this will help you with your decision making process. Here’s a snippet:

With shared web hosting a single computer referred to as a box or a server will generally hold a large number of websites. The number will depend on the company, the cost, and the hardware that makes up the machine. Shared hosting is often a reliable hosting option for most websites including both small business and personal use. The overall quality, speed, and cost will fluctuate significantly from host to host so it is important to do your homework before selecting a shared hosting center. Often websites which abuse or use more resources including CPU time or bandwidth will be shut down. If your website requires heavy resource allotment you will likely need to look into another hosting option.

SimpleScripts just added a new feature that will allow you to easily convert WordPress, Drupal, and phpBB to its system from Fantastico. If you like the day-of updates that SimpleScripts offers then this is a no brainer. Here’s a snippet from their website:

We have launched our automatic conversion utility! Currently only WordPress, Drupal and phpBB are supported, but several more are on their way. You can use it by visiting the WordPress, Drupal or phpBB installation pages (you’ll need to be logged in), and clicking on the “Convert a Fantastico Installation” link on the bottom of the page. This is a non-invasive process, so we won’t modify your files in any way. If your script is not supported, please read on.
