The Launch of Pezland.net
Filed under General Journal.
I’ve been providing hosting to several of my clients and friends for a few years now but I never really got around to formalizing the hosting side of my business. That is until now… I’ve FINALLY got around to putting up a basic website and I’m happy to announce the launch of the new and improved PEZland.net!
You may see similarities between Pezland.net and Jpatrickm. I opted to use WordPress for the new site because even though it’s intended for use as a blogging software, it really is an awesome content management system. What would normally take hours and hours to create and design, WordPress allows you to do in a very short time. With a basic stylesheet and site structure already created, it literally only took me about 2 +/- hours to get the entire site up and running. I decided to use the Firefox template again because I like the colors and layout and the Firefox theme works well with the whole hosting thing.
What is Pezland you ask? Well it’s the domain name that I purchased to officially organize my hosting and keep it separate from my other business domains. I previously used my shadowcasting.com site for the hosting but I wanted something that would be stand-alone as just hosting. So Pezland.net was born.
Why PEZ you ask? Well it’s actually a funny little story. A while back, a girl told me that I was like a PEZ - strangely addicting. (If you don’t know what PEZ is then you were probably born after 1980 and/or don’t like candy. You can educate yourself over at Wikipedia). Anyway, after that, the name sort-of stuck and it has become somewhat of a nickname for me. I thought it would be a clever name for a new domain.
So if you need hosting for your personal site, blog or business then jump on over to Pezland.net! (candy and candy dispenser sold seperately)
