I ran across a site, quite by accident, one day while looking for wholesale suppliers of hand crafted items. It appeared that several of the sites I was checking out had one thing in common, DIY Website Builder. So I investigated just a bit more, and decided that one more chance thrown away on the unknown couldn't hurt anymore then spending tons of money with the commercial web hosts. I ordered my domain transfer and web hosting account on a Saturday. By Saturday night, I had an e-mail with complete instructions on the steps I needed to take to complete the transfer, and to begin rebuilding my site. Admittedly, I am an internet newbie when it comes to setting up domain names, transfers, web sites and anything else you can think of that might need even a pinkie full of the technical knowledge that one might use when completing these tasks.
I needed help! So I sent off an e-mail to the person who had sent me the instructions, admitted I was clueless and asked for more details. I swear to you, I didn't expect an answer until Monday, but to my surprise, I received an answer about 20 minutes later. DJ Doodle, as she will lovingly be called throughout this article came to my rescue. She went to my current host, found the step by step instructions and sent them off to me. A day later, when I still hadn't gotten it right, she requested that I give her administrative status for the current host, so that she could fix it for me. I did, and a few days later, my new site was up and running correctly, and my old site was off the old host and gone forever. No down time, easy transition...yes, I worked my butt off to get the new site built and ready, but hey, that's the life of the on line business owner.
I didn't expect to receive such detailed attention to my issues as a customer over a weekend. I didn't expect someone to go the extra mile to help me with something that I just didn't understand. But for the same $20/month that I had been paying one of the major web hosts out there, I got personal attention from someone who actually wanted my business! I also got a website builder that anyone with an ounce of comfort with the internet would be able to use efficiently to create their own on line business presence. After several months of working with DJ Doodle and DIY Website Builder, I still receive quick responses in less then an hour to every question I have, regardless of the day of the week.
I wanted to give you the pros and the cons to this business. But try as I might, I cannot find a con in sight. This is one person who truly cares not only about her own success as a business person, but also about your success. So I will list just a few of the benefits here for you. You really will have to visit DJ Doodle's DIY Web Builder to get the full experience of what you can have!

I must say that I am glad I gave the unknown a chance to work for me. It was a step in the right direction that is unparalleled by any other web host provider out there. And I have tried many...enough to know that this is the best decision you could make if you need a web host for your small business.
