Ryan, your comment just prompted me to ask a question that's been on my mind for a while? For those of you who build Web sites for clients, do you provide hosting for their sites, or do you set them up with their own account at the hosting company of their choice? I've been asked by potential clients if I host sites. I'm not sure if it's something I should look into. Thoughts?

I speak from experience. I currently have a circa 2001 pro-bono website that I'm still administering their domain and hosting. Trust me, educate and start 'em off right. - RYAN JOY http://twitter.com/atxryan On Thu, Apr 9, 2009 at 5:35 PM, Mark Phillip <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey folks, I volunteered to do some pro-bono work for a bird sanctuary here > in town.
