Even if the site of a particular WordPress hosting company doesn't explicitly state that they offer one-click installation, this doesn't mean they don't – just call and ask. Sometimes even the best WordPress hosts, which are a top choice in any aspect, don't think that one-click install is something so important that it needs to be mentioned explicitly on their site but they actually offer one-click WordPress installation. This is why if you have already picked a host but don't see that they offer one-click WordPress installation, you'd better call them and check before you decide they are no good and move to the next web host.]]> http://theroxor.com/2010/02/25/top-5-wordpress-hosting-providers-with-one-click-installation/feed/ 5 http://theroxor.com/2010/02/16/7-ways-to-become-a-better-designer/ http://theroxor.com/2010/02/16/7-ways-to-become-a-better-designer/#comments Tue, 16 Feb 2010 10:01:30 +0000 Kvn http://theroxor.com/?p=5214 In this article you'll find seven tips and tricks that can help you to become a better designer.

Well, I couldn't agree more. I can't believe it's already been a year since I started this little blog. My initial goal of this blog was to have some sort of an outlet, somewhere where I can share the things I enjoy most with the rest of the world.
