I’m a hobby blogger, a mono logger, whiner, free rider, or whatever you want to call it. The free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom was a great start. And, I’m not ungrateful. Only a few times did the restrictions chaff.

But, now the unexplained and silent account suspension has made me concerned.

I never wanted the hassles of being off on my own. BUT, if it could happen to her, it could happen to any of us.

I’ve been getting “smarter” so I have my own domain and can move. I have my old posts backed up in various forms.

Argh!

Hate the thought of all the work.

So, I think, and I’m asking for opinions, it might be smart to pick a service provider that others use. Has anyone moved from free to hosted?

(Is there a service provider that will do the migration? That’s worth paying for!)

Anyone published a check list?

If not, maybe we can use my experience as a “guinea pig” and develop one.

Open for suggestions, as I am looking at what appears to be a very big and very dirty stable. :-(
