I am considering changing the companies. Andrea

Make sure you are going to a better hosting and take back up of all the files. Once you move your website the old hosting company may not help you. __________________ What do you know about your kids?

What you can do is give them a call and ask them this question - and they can point you in the right direction. Its not a toll free call, though - that is how they cut down on costs - but if you have a cell phone, you can probably call them for free (if you live in the USA) since most cell phones come with free long distance. __________________ Wealthy Affiliate Review - Starting June 1st, Join For Just $1 www.FreeWebDesignEbook.com
