Moving to a self-hosted site is a pain in the ass. For someone who doesn’t know the first thing about computers it can only be the start of a series of headaches. First there’s the monetary investment of finding a cheap domain name and a cheap, but reliable, host. That part’s ok. But it’s the little stuff that happens afterwards that gets you. Making sure everyone knows you have a new site (drunkencouponer.com) and putting even MORE money into making WordPress redirecting your visitors.
Then there’s making sure you have everything WordPress made so convenient for you: Fiddling with Google Analytics for traffic reports, hunting down plugins that let you copy and clone your posts and add social media buttons, changing all your past links so they link to the new site…
It’s become very overwhelming. I think I’m going to just take a break tonight with some UV premixed cocktails. Take the edge off a bit…
On another note, you show me you love this site by BUYING ME A BEER! Any amount helps support the blog. Thanks in advance. 🙂
