which issue did digit have the extensive guide to web hosting ?
the one with references to godaddy and stuff ?
The November 2004 Issue had an article on how to set up a website.
Also, if you don't have the copy of FastTrack to Your Web Presence, try finding it in the January issue of Digit. They've included pdf files of all the FastTrack books in it.
Are you looking for help on some specific topic of hosting? Or hosting generally?
