It has been so long since I have had time to work on this. I am currently trying to secure funding so that I can offer a good amount of space to my future clients. Not much else to say
I have successfully switched web hosts and will now concentrate on building the main website
After that I can start selling my web hosting plans and stuff.
Well, I’ll be back
Hosting Fairy will be moving to a new host soon so dont be alarmed if the site suffers downtime sometime soon. Right now I am just transferring my clients websites, other sites I have on my hosting account
I will keep everyone up to date but it is likely that this transfer won’t take place until around June 4
I had two domains sitting around collecting dust so i decided to use one as another hosting company except that it will be geared to make more money and has more features then Hosting Fairy which is geared towards people who won’t need a lot of space and don’t have much cash. 750 mb is good enough, in fact my largest website only uses about 500 mb, but then again it is small and I don’t have much in it.
My other project is a free hosting website that will be for blogs and forums. i will be doing something I haven’t tried yet and use a wordpress blog as my website. I hope it does well ![]()
I’ll be sure to keep you posted to the launch dates!

I have finally got all the jinks and pricing of the Budget Plan done. I am also almost done adding my content to the main website, and I have also installed the forums. I plan to move my account if I have at least one customer to the Hostgator reseller account. But right now I am happy with my current host.
Anyways, about the budget plan. It will be $2.99 per month. I would have made it cheaper but I need to be able to pay my bills lol. Of course, just because I want to become a webhost doesn’t mean I won’t help other people with their web hosting dreams. I will be writing tutorials soon and setting up the forums for you all.
And of course, once I get the website up you will be able to see an extensive list of how to contact me lol
I am going to take a break from trying to figure out how to code my design until later. I found a nice design that I like over at resellerguide.com so I am going to use that after I have customized all the text and stuff. I think that my mistake was in trying to code while designing. I think I will finish the design then have it designed. I know a place where I can get it done for 100 dollars.
For now, I will focus on getting the website set up and then I’ll worry about making the websites design unique
I think that I can start getting things going in the next month or two. I am going to continue to work on the .psd design and get that coded. I know how to make a wordpress theme so I’ll get started on that after I finish the main site design.
I am still learning so bear with me
I have always been active in Entrecard with my other blogs like my personal blog. But I held off on joining with this blog until I had a decent set of posts. I have joined up and at first I only used those standard text things because I didn’t have the time to design an entrecard ad. At first, I considered using Janis Decent Banners website services but since I am trying to learn designing as well as hosting I decided to take a crack at it and I love what I came up with!
Here is the design:
This was created partly thanks to this tutorial. Of course, I added my own little flairs to it. The badge part is all done through the tutorial but I went one up and used “bevel and emboss” on the background layer to make it 3D-ish. And in the background is the words that I use to describe this site such as “Web Hosting”, “Design” and “Tutorials”. I love how it came out lol.
At first I was going to make it solely an Entrecard geared ad but upon completion I realized that it will still work great for basic advertising so this is what I’ll use for my advertising
And for sites like 125Exchange ![]()
I was reading a friends blog (Katalina
) and she was talking about a new contest. My blog is fairly new and in need of a custom design so I decided to enter in the hopes of winning either the custom design or the Revolution theme by Brian Gardner. The revolution theme would be awesome if I cant win the custom package because I could mold it to my needs lol. SO yeah, I need a wordpress theme prize lol Anyways, here is the prize list for the contest
