Right now I use Hawk Host and I LOVE it. I took over as "web master" for my sons high school music department. At the time they had their website hosted through the free doteasy. Our website was quite large for the free one and you had to code everything. I switched the web host to 000webhost with their free webhosting, but kept the domain registration with doteasy, so that I could use WordPress and make it easier for anyone in the future to run the website. I have not been able to get into our wordpress admin since before this past weekend because of a ddos (i think that is what they called it). I am trying to convince the boosters to move to a paid host and since I have had virtually NO down time I am pushing them to Hawk Host. Now my questions:
1) I know I read we can get help to move the WordPress database, will people know as they go to the website or is it pretty fast?
2) Are we able to move both the host and the domain to you at the same time? Even though they are different places. The domain (lnerocketmusic.org) does not expire until Sept. 2013
3) The boosters only have a checking account do you guys ever do a bank draft or anything? If not, are we able to set up the account to receive an invoice and then pay with a credit card then? (That way a current booster can use their card at the time) Or does it have to be marked as auto-renew?
We are having a meeting tonight and they are going to discuss more, so I may have more questions.
Thank you
