I have been using word press since 2005 for my blog. It was a free service except I bought a domain name through them to give people access to my blog. Last year I bought their minimum site service which included an additional domain name. I will let my original domain name expire in December of this year but plan to maintain my minimum service plan that will renew next summer. My only complaint is they have always started bugging me to I renew my domain name a couple of months before it is scheduled to expire and I end up needing to delete what seems like a hundred email reminders before I finally signed up again in December. I refuse to go to automatic renewal because I am afraid the will sign me up a couple of months early to get their money sooner and before long they will end up a whole year early like the new year car model year. I could just pay a couple of months early but that is not the way I am.
