Welcome!
Welcome to the new home of Bisdak Babbles!
After painstakingly trying to find my way around my web host, it really feels great to have finally finished setting this up.
For my web host, I am using 1 & 1.
Why did I choose 1 & 1?
- It is one of the cheapest web host around
- They’re giving out huge discounts for their 20th year anniversary
- Read many good reviews
- It’s one of the few web hosts that has PayPal payment option.
- Minimum contract is only for 6 months (obviously, my PayPal account didn’t have enough to pay for those that require at least a year lock-in period)
- With my selected package, I already have 2 free main domains and 25 sub-domains.
- I’m entitled to 1000 emails! (I’ve been wondering what to do with all 1000 emails)
- I could have up to 100 databases.
- They support Wordpress. Though their default Wordpress installation doesn’t offer much theme options.
I’m really overjoyed because:
- Through Wordpress, I was able to migrate everything! Including the precious comments!
- I can now have “real” smileys
- I can now use “The Calendar” with ease
- Hundreds of easy-to-use themes
If you’re planning to sign up for 1 & 1, I’d be very willing to give yo some tips. They don’t offer much instructions on how to setup your own Wordpress. Maybe I’ll post here a short tutorial soon. 
This is still a work in progress. For those who were linked to me, no worries, I’m still working on the list and I’d be adding up that soon, together with the blog awards and friendship badges.
Thank you all! I’m very happy to have finally made my move… welcome to my new home!
But I feel kind of sad about having left Blogspot. After all, it had been my home for over a year.

First commenter! I subscribed to your RSS feed.
Hey, it has a clever pointer saying ‘this is where you type your comments’. I was wondering what that box that said ‘comments’ is for.
Nice template!
