    My 2 cents:

    I have used GoDaddy and 1&1, and their support SUCKS. Rackspace support people are borderline fanatic about helping, and I have never been left without an answer by them, unlike the other two. I think I pay $4/mo for my own domain name with Rackspace.

    But, do some research and pick one you like.

    Nice! I've only used Rackspace for high-end hosting (insanely high-end with a dedicated concierge) and experienced the fanaticism you describe. I'm VERY glad to hear that that mentality permeates down to the lower levels of service and will investigate using them for smaller sites too. Thanks!

    You could put a pretty decent website together on wix.com for free provided you use their wacky website name. I used my own domain name and the price went to $99 a year. Just my experience-- I'm not knowledgable about site hosting just design

    There are a few good blog options out there you can use for free. blogger.com, wordpress.com. If you go your own route and want to host one yourself, wordpress.org and joomla.org have good CMS/Blog platforms that you can self host...

    But if you don't want to deal with all that setup, I created MyVehicross.com just for someone like you! photo uploads, blogging and a wiki for your how-to's you create. All to compliment vx.info on the side. (site will be down for a few days as I'm moving it to a new more reliable host.)

    YES, this is EXACTLY what I want to do. I have done soooooo much to my VX that it only makes sense to share everything I've learned, replacement part numbers, tips/tricks, etc. and I would love to do it on my own site...

    So what would it take to enlist your help ???
