About
The first question you are probably asking yourself is, "What is a JonnyJE?” Well, JonnyJE is a username I use throughout the internet. "Jonny" is my nickname and "JE" stands for my middle and last name initials. Now that that’s out of the way, I can move on to more important things like why I have my own website.
Back in 2006, I created my first website with a WYSIWYG editor at age 13 using a free web hosting service called freewebs (now known as webs). I wanted to create an environment that had my favorite interests all in one place. Coding, being one of my interests, made me want to go beyond using a WYSIWYG editor.
About after two years of being with freewebs, they went under some major changes- and not for the better. They added ads everywhere and were placing limits on certain things making it nearly impossible to have a presentable website. So, with that in mind I went on a search for a new free web host and I came upon another called 000webhost, where I could freely code to my desire without basically any limits.
In fall of that same year one of my long time internet friends, Chris helped me get the domain name JonnyJE.com. Up to this point I was (and I still am actually) using a free URL redirection service called freedomain.co.nr. Now I need to pay a yearly domain name renewal fee to keep JonnyJE.com domain name mine... Please consider helping me out by donating.
000webhost was a fairly nice host until about Mid-March of 2010. I could not connect do my FTP server for about a month making it impossible for me to update any content. As you can imagine, that made things very frustrating. I contacted their support and all I got were some canned messages and as it seemed a different person each time. I was basically told to delete my account and there was nothing that they could do to help me.
After finding out 000webhost did not care one bit about their customers, I went looking yet another webhost and this time I came across a web hosting service called byethost. The page that you are currently reading is being hosted by them and I have been happy so far with their services. I still use 000webhost for some things like the support section of my site to reduce server load, but I’m not very happy with them.
So after that long explanation we end up to where JonnyJE.com is today. I do not use a WYSIWYG editor anymore, as you just get way too many errors in code it generates. I coded this website in XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.1 from scratch and it is error free (as you probably have seen the W3C validation on the side). I enjoy coding this website even though it may be frustrating at times. :)
