I kept having quirky issues as I tried to build my blog and gave up on it. <br /><br />I started my blog at WordPress.com, then switched to self-hosted WordPress.org. I was pleased with the switch to a hosted site, but had some issues with the actual host (HostSo) because my files kept freezing up. At the first of this year I switched to a new host (HostGator) and changed my domain name in the process. HostGator support was very helpful and I had everything running smoothly. Now my URL matches my blog title and I love it! And my files have never frozen up on me for more than just a few minutes, so no need to contact support for help with that (so far). It has been fantastic to go 4 weeks without having to contact support!
