Question I would like to leave Freewebs? (Webs.com)

Hello! I have many questions, but I have read reviews about your awesome support so here goes.

I don't really care for freewebs or webs.com's rates. HG seems to offer more bang for your buck, with the unlimited bandwidth and all. My first question is, is there anyone else who is a previous freewebs/webs.com customer? Was it easy to move your pages from there to here?

I'm asking this because, their site builder was fairly easy for me. Point and click was my bff over there as I have limited (very limited....it's been some years) html experience. Took classes a few years back, but have learned that much of what I was taught back then is now obsolete. I have Microsoft Expressions Web, but barely get that. I'm stuck at very basic HTML I am concerned as to the degree of difficulty recreating my site on HG. <---I hope that makes sense, I couldn't think of how else to say it.

In essence, your toys look better, so I want to play (and pay) over here. I'm debating between the two sites as I haven't upgraded over there yet. I want to make an informed decision, even though I'm leaning towards HG. Just scared, because I feel like a noob all over again. BTW, I am going back to school, but the way things keep changing, I'll be in class forever.

Hate to be a bother at 3:18am. But I want to make this decision in the morning...er...in a few hours.

I left Godaddy for HostGator some time ago, and have never looked back. As far as HTML, there are quite a few really good sites out there, that help learn basic HTML and CSS. It just takes patience to learn, as with everything else.

As far as transferring, HostGator will transfer your domain for you (it takes a few days). You can read more about that here.

Hopefully this helps a little bit.

Hello Queen,

We too offer 2 fairly user-friendly site building utilities as well. If you would like to take a look at one of our site builders you can do so here:

We also have Wordpress in the Fantastico section of cpanel that you can install with a few clicks. You just add the content. It also, has different themes to choose from and is pretty easy...
