NO… you can’t host it from your PC but you can get cheaper hosting for the sites. The hosing company should be offering you an admin area where you can control the site. You don’t have to get a hosting plan that gives auto install of wordpress… very easy to install without the auto install. Also, some hosting companies have the auto install thru “Fantastico” but it may not be the latest version. Hence another reason to install yourself instead of using an auto install script from the hosting company.

It does kind of depend on where you are located. Could recommend some great hosting here in the USA but if your located elsewhere you may want to do some research on hosting companies closer to you.

Also be aware that hosting fees vary from hosting company to hosting company and that there are options. Again, if you feel that you are paying too much for hosting, more than likely there are other options. You would have to post what you are currently paying for others to make suggestions for a change to a good but less expensive host. If your paying $5 or less per month for the hosting of that site you are probably doing well.

Maybe… depends on what your spending now for the hosting. You can’t host the site from your own PC but there may be cheaper hosting for your wordpress site.

I see that in that style.css file on line 28…

body {
color: #666666;
font-family: tahoma;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 22px;
}

Which is correct if you are wanting tahoma.

You probably need to clear your browser cache because I am seeing that it is set to tahoma at this time. ( : ^ } >

Yes, I agreed… Using the Firefox Browser and the FireBug Add On for FireFox will help you with these types of issues.

It seems that is in that file… look on line 28. Change the font-family: css information that is there to whatever font you are wanting.

ie… font-family: arial;

Link to your site where you are wanting to make this change?

Posting a link to your site where you are having the issue(s)… helps others to take a look. Thanks!

Looks like you could also remove that width: css information there all together and just set the max-width: css info to 83% it seems… ie… max-width: 83%;

Says there on the site that you have special expertise in WordPress among other things. Are you sure you want to put that there? Not wanting to insult or frustrate you just wondering if you have considered that since the page width has give you some issues.

Hope this helps you get it updated… Wayne

Sorry for the typo… the file is:
https://cdn.rohitpalit.com/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/style.css

From what I can tell… you need to edit the following file:
https://cdn.https://rohitpalit.com/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/style.css … line 983.

Change the max-width:
there to a larger number to increase the width.

Are you talking about my smiley face… ( : ^ } > ???

Please tell me what exactly you are speaking about so that I can stop what you’re finding objectionable.
