Topic: Does anyone here do websites?

[HondaMan]

Mine has been completely corrupted with crypto-currency robots filling in the entire mailbox. I have 57 pages of real customers, now it has over 250 additional pages of crypto-currency entries. I can't spend 3 days a week trying to clear these out: I need to move my website to a more responsible server, as these people don't do ANY protection nor blocking.

Anyone here know a good one that doesn't cost thousand$?

Hey HM...I think you could do it yourself.

I do know a guy, but like you said, it will cost thousands.

Thanks for the hint/link, but I have real issues about GoDaddy...

I have the domain, just need someplace like Oscommerce again, but in a more responsible environment. Someone in Europe bought Oscommerce out of the USA 4 years ago and moved it 3 years ago to Euro servers. That's when the trouble started with weekly hacking: now it is dozens per day or more - everything from crypto sales to porn ads to Ukraine donation requests (not even real ones) that break the framework and jam megabytes of text into the mailbox, blocking any actual inquiries and destroying the e-mail contact system. The Euro owners do nothing about it: all that is needed is someone to monitor a wide range of their client's infeeds and when the same 'ad' enters dozens of their accounts, it gets blocked by someone or a preset 'bot. It's not hard: they just won't do it. They let it go because the new owners are chaging $$ per the amount of 'space used', and jamming it full of crap just lines their pockets. I'm not doing that anymore: last year's renewal cost me almost twice as much $$ as I made from the parts I sold there, just because of this crap. I clear $2-$12 on the gizmos I make to sell at the website, it's not a big moneymaking thing...

wordpress is widely used, both buy professional website builders and people who do it themselves: https://wordpress.com/
you can also get hosting and email from them. they're reputable.

Thanks, Flatlander: I'll take a look at that instead.
I don't need a typical website with the commerce stuff attached, just a place to point to the things I have for these bikes. After my identity was stolen in 2006 (thru no fault of my own, thanks only to Colorado's government...) I had to shut down all my online accounts completely and sever all my [former] banks and investments, just to stop the theft. So, no normal eCommerce for me!

Yeah, I'd like to invent a cyberbullet to send after them, myself.
