New Web-host

I've just transferred web-hosts, switching from the ever excellent and inexpensive ICDsoft.com ($5/mo) to the slightly more expensive but more powerful iPowerWeb.com ($7/mo with a 2-year contract). In the long run this should save me a bit of money, as I intend to relocate a number of different websites in one account (something I couldn't do with ICDsoft. In the short term, it may mean a bit of instability as I reorganize and transfer things from my multiple ICDsoft hosting accounts to my one new iPowerWeb hosting account ("one host to rule them all...?" - hope it doesn't turn out to be quite that sinister!).

I'll keep you posted on my experience with the new web-host. So far, besides having a good deal more space and bandwidth, things do seem a bit faster... Republishing my entire blog, for example, takes about a quarter of the time with iPowerWeb as it took with ICDsoft as my host.
