New Host and WordPress migration
Since being featured in The Creep podcast, I realized my current hosting situation would not do. Scott Johnson said "ask him for him by name" without giving my website address, but anyone searching google for "Regular Gonzalez" would get regulargonzalez.com without the all-important www. That's relevant for technical reasons because I was using google's free hosting, but it only works with custom domain names if there's a subdomain. The raw domain name can't be redirected via the method they use, but that meant that people googling me weren't finding the website I had set up and were just seeing an error instead. Since that's no way to welcome new fans to my music, I had to pull my shit together and get a new host.
Now I have proper hosting from a facility with stairs, and I am going to be using WordPress as my blog/site framework. I am pretty familiar with the package, having helped a friend set up his WP blog recently, so I should be able to work some PHP magic behind the scenes in order to add cool custom stuff and embed awesomeness in the very fabric of this website. For now, it shall be moderately bland and uncustomized. Have patience my dear listeners; a new song-a-week arrives tomorrow!
