Bizhat, as with wordpress.com, provides the user with a wysiwyg Preview screen, so you know exactly how your post is going to look like on your page layout before you hit Publish. And as with most of the free WP hosts I’ve come across with, all they ask for is what you want to name your blog, and your email address. It also allows you to create categories on the fly, which is a feature I would like to have on my own paid-for WP host.
Do NOT however, under any circumstances, click on the “Import” link that appears on the Dashboard. It will log you out and then refuse to recognize your password. If you’re lucky you can hit “Back” and still see the previous page you were on, but if not you will have to click on the lost password link and go through the reset password rigamarole. If you still click on it after this warning … you’re a stubborn ****.
