Edited the post, lol.

JazakAllah Khayr. I checked out the site and maasha'Allah it looks very good!

May Allah reward you immensely for your work in providing these beneficial services to the Ummah.
 
Jazakumullahu Khair Brother Uthman. May Allah Ta'ala always keep you in piety, prosperity, and good health.
 
I like the name a lot
The site looks really good. Is it based on any software, or is it custom coded off a software?
I remember I looked at social networking type softwares, it was a thorough pain.

But offering a blogging sphere to muslims is a really good angle. Thank you for the great service.

The honor is mine.

Well, I integrated quite a few softwares and programming into it actually. On top of that, the maintenance isn't a one-time fee. Rather, I have to pay a huge amount every month for the social networking and other parts of the site. But I enjoy it Alhamdulillah. I look forward to seeing you all on it.

Just to make this clear, the site is nothing like FaceBook. Well, it's similar in many ways, but don't confuse it to be a Muslim FB. It's a pure blogging network. I'm hoping its better than the normal BlogSpot/WordPRess because there are more promotional options etc, giving your site more hits.

All I'm waiting for now is participation from people like you. :p
 
Ermm... Bumperz Thumperz. Anyone got more feedback and/or wanna register..?
 
Assalamu Alaikum,

I'll give you my honest opinion, nothing personal :hmm:

I used to have my blog hosted on hadithuna, but I found the hosting service was frequently hacked and my readers complained about getting viruses from visiting my blog. The site was down for several weeks at a time, and I would constantly have problems with the format of my blog. You can see what remains of my blog - rahma.hadithuna.com

Now, the brother who ran the site was great, but he was fighting an uphill battle. I stayed there for quite some time, but eventually felt I owed it to my reads (all dozen of them, lol) to have my blog somewhere that was safe for them to read.

I now use wordpress and haven't had any problems since I've moved it there - umms.wordpress.com - and I honestly would not switch to another muslim blog hosting site.

Just be prepared for people to hack your site often, and to have to cater to demanding little bloggers who want fixes for everything NOW NOW NOW. It really is a thankless job. Best of luck to you though :)
 
Assalamu Alaykum Sister,

Well, I'd think you should know our site uses WordPress. We are legal and official WordPress partners. I think theywill be adding HalalPress to their site gallery soon enough insha'Allah.

In my opinion, those sites deserved to go down. They fill their sites with advertisements and ruin the taste. I know MuslimPad also shut down.

But I sincerely hope and pray that our site will be different.

Give it a try sister! Satisfaction guaranteed. We also have more networking and advertising options than those sites as well.
 
wa alaikum assalam,

Hadithuna switched to the wordpress format as well, and still encounters quite a few problems unfortunately. Also, I can't fault them for putting advertisements up - it costs a pretty penny to run a blog hosting site when it gets popular, and not everyone is independantly wealthy ;D

JazakAllah khair for the invitation, but I think I'll be staying put. Since I switched to WP, my readership has jumped from a few dozen to over 200 a day. I don't want to do anything to mess with my good fortune :embarrass

Understandable lol.

Well yeah, it's quite costly. I don't really have a steady income myself, but Alhamdulillah I manage for now. I've got very generous connections in terms of my web service providers etc. But when you rely on connections, you've got to get a lot more organized. You need to make sure you have back up plans etc as well. Remember me in your duas! Sometimes I get worried I can't meet the bills in time.

I'm uploading the sites and stocking it up with some applications insha'Allah. I can't waittt!

Anyone got advertising ideas for this?
 
Yeah ermm... Has everyone seen HalalPress.com? x]]
 
You know it says to use the services while they last, are you not expecting the blog thing to be around for long?
I'm not a regularly regular blogger you see.
I'm useless.

Looking at your signature, I just visited your blog today. :skeleton:

Anyway, I meant while we still offer new blog hosting. Insha'Allah it'll be around forever and ever and ever. Until the Last Day.
 
Yeah, mines the little one. The one I rarely update.
I should, I think.
It is a bit pinkish though. Hmm.
So, do we start afresh or transfer across??

If you have the files, we can transfer. Otherwise, start a fresh. :hmm:

IMO, you'd get more readers and viewers if you use HalalPress.
 
I Removed the "while they last" paratheses. :shade:
