Hi–

I’m trying to set up a music website. I’ve designed it in iWeb and have been using godaddy as host. I’m about to tell godaddy to go…..

On the site, I’d like to blog/vlog. That can easily be done with blogger. I can probably just link to blogger from the main site.

However, I would like other features.

I’d like to sell some original compositions online. Sibelius Music is a bit too pricey, IMHO. Perhaps the music can be saved as PDF files and downloaded after payment. I’d like to play audio on the site (midi files, etc.) I teach singing and would like to have audio of warm-up exercises on the website. (That will draw traffic to the site. Ain’t I clever?:idea:)

Please give me some suggestions for web hosts. Here are my requirements.

(1 - 3 can be done with just blogger & youtube, probably.)
1) Blog
2) Show videos (linked from YouTube, etc.)
3) Some static pages (Welcome, etc.)

4) Visitors can download midi files.
5) Visitors can listen to midi files.
6) Visitors can pay for and download pdf files.
7) Shopping cart, maybe
Amazon associate (can be done with Amazon alone)
9) It doesn’t have to stay in iWeb, but it would be nice.

Thanks for your help.:)
