Hi
Got a reply from Dominic
Explained that the web space will be fine for me, bandwidth is enough for thousands of visitors a month ( I wish ). Emailed back some more questions, so see what happens.
They do not have a site builder, so told me to go to wordpress.org and download it for free!
Speak to you later

Hi
I have explained that blogging is not my thing as The Rover SD1 Club has a forum up and running already, so now not sure if it is for me, as I will mainly be doing pictures, but I will wait and see.

Hi
Had a reply as follows
"Ah I see - in this case you'd need to use some software to create a site through us, as at the moment we don't have a sitebuilder service at all.
I can recommend Joomla - they have a demo here: (demo.joomla.org) Feel free to take a look around and see if that does what you need, although it does have a lot of options it is very flexible once you get used to it."
My search carries on!

Wordpress is allot more than a blog. It can be used for eCommerce, Classified Ads and general websites.
But if I were you I would use Forum Software like this money saving expert site. You could create a new post on your forums and add pictures from a certain event etc. Also have a section for Car Parts, Events, Sales and General Discussion.
Again this can be done Free by using the MyBB software: http://www.mybboard.net/
If this is not for you let me know and I will see what else I can think of0 -
I will have a look tomorrow.
Thanks
