26 Nov Bandzoogle vs. Wix vs. WordPress: The Best Band Website Builder
If you're a musician or band thinking about building your own website but aren't sure which "website builder" to use, then this post will help you decide.
Here, I will compare three top platforms for creating a band website: Wix, Bandzoogle, and WordPress. Each has their own pros and cons in terms of price, flexibility, ease of use, and customization.
I have personally used all three and I want to help guide you in choosing the right one for your website. To back up that I know a bit on what I'm talking about, I'm a musician and I work as a freelance web designer. I have built websites for bands and musicians (a service that I offer here).
If you want to know which platform I think is best without doing too much reading, in my opinion, I believe WordPress is the best option. While it may be a bit more complex than the other two options, it's really not that hard to learn and by going with a WordPress built website, you'll have more control over the design, functionality, and you'll even save money in the long run.
I wrote up a huge guide to building a band website using WordPress that covers everything step-by-step. So if you're a first time WordPress user, you can follow along with the guide to setup your site.
If you do go the WordPress route, you will need web hosting. This is what holds your website's files. There are many web hosting providers but my recommendation would be A2 Hosting. They're a U.S. based company, have solid U.S. support (which can be rare with hosting companies), and affordable pricing. Their lowest tiered plan (which would be fine for any startup band) starts at about $4/month (by the way, WordPress itself is free).
Now, with all that out of the way, let's take a look at the differences between the three options by comparing the main things you should consider when choosing a "website builder: pricing, ease of use, and customization.
Wix can be used for free. You can create a website for free and Wix will host it on their own domain. The problem with this is you won't have your own domain name (for example, www.yourbandname.com).
Instead, your free website will have a domain address as follows:
For one, this looks unprofessional. In addition, it's tough to direct someone to a website like this it's too difficult to say and for someone to remember.
To use your own domain, you'd have to purchase a paid plan from Wix. The first paid plan starts at $4/month. This would allow you to connect your domain but you'd still have to purchase it separately (it's not included) and you would have Wix ads displayed on your site.
For most people, this will be a no go. To remove the Wix ads, you'd have to go up to the next paid plan at $10.42/month.
Bandzoogle's pricing starts at $8.29/month if you pay for the year in total upfront. Otherwise, it's $9.95/month. This plan will include your domain name and web hosting. However, there will be a limit on the number of pages you can create, songs you can add, and photos you can add.
With this plan, you are limited to 10 pages. For most bands, that will be fine. But, you can only add 10 songs and 100 photos. That could be an area of concern for bands or musicians with a lot of songs or photos from events.
Thus, you would need to upgrade your plan if you want the ability to add more songs or photos. The next plan up is $12.49/month allowing for 20 pages, 50 songs, and 500 photos.
Bandzoogle also includes email marketing features that allow you to collect email addresses on your site. The first plan allows up to 100 emails to be added and the second plan allows up to 1000.
To me, this isn't a big draw since there are many email marketing platforms that you can use for free to get started. For instance, MailChimp. MailChimp is free to use and you can collect up to 2,000 emails before you need to purchase a paid plan.
Both Wix and Bandzoogle have tiered pricing models that require you to purchase higher plans for added features/functionality.
WordPress, however, is free. WordPress is a system that enables you to build and manage your website. To use it, you would install WordPress on your web hosting package. Most web hosting providers have a 1-click install for this purpose to make it easy.
This does mean you need to purchase your domain name (your website name) and web hosting separately. In the case of Wix and Bandzoogle, these are simply included in the paid plan if noted.
This does give you plenty of options, though, since there are a ton of different hosting providers. My recommendation for hosting would be A2 hosting. I wrote a whole blog post on my recommendations for hosting that you can check out here.
But basically, I would say A2 Hosting is the way to go. They are the hosting company I use for all of my websites. That includes this website and it loads just fine with having 10,000 visits/month.
For most bands and musicians, A2's Lite plan at about $4/month will be fine. For purchasing a domain name, you can do so with A2 at the time of purchasing your hosting plan.
No matter where you purchase your domain name, it's going to be roughly $15/year.
In total, that puts using WordPress at $63/year. Bandzoogle on its lowest plan would be just under $100. Wix with their second lowest plan (I'm not using the lowest plan since it still includes ads on your site) would be $125.
Pricing Winner: WordPress
Ease of Use
For the purposes of this blog post, I went through the process of building a website from scratch using Wix and Bandzoogle in order to create a site similar to my artist website built on WordPress. Here is a screenshot of that site:
I wanted to first see how simple each option was to use. But, I also wanted to see how well they would look and how much customization was allowed.
First, on ease of use, I'd have to say Bandzoogle is the winner here.
When building a website with Bandzoogle, first you start out by picking a theme from a pretty large range of options. Then, the builder walks you through the process of creating your site.
After about an hour, here's the site I put together with Bandzoogle.
It's not a complex as my site built on WordPress but it is workable as a band or musician website.
Moving on, I did find the editor to be a bit sluggish but nothing too unbearable. Overall, Bandzoogle was very simple to use.
However, while the level of customization will probably be enough for most bands, it's still not anywhere near what you can do with WordPress (the same goes for Wix).
Take a look through the slider below for screenshots of my setup on Bandzoogle. One thing I did like is that Bandzoogle makes it easy to add a photo gallery, music player, etc. by selecting from a list of features to add. Then, you can drag them into place.
Wix was fairly easy to use too. But, I would give Bandzoogle the advantage here. However, what was nice about Wix is that when you create an account, Wix will walk you through creating the site and will automatically create a website layout based on the options you choose. See the slider below for a quick view of this process:
After about an hour, here's how far I got the site built using Wix.
Again, it's not perfect and not as polished as the site built with WordPress but it does look fairly similar. After only about an hour of work, it's not too bad. Of course, it needs to be customized further with my own content versus the dummy content from Wix.
You'll also notice that there is a Wix ad at that stays fixed to the bottom and top of the page. These are the ads that I referred to earlier in the section on pricing. You'll need to purchase at least their $10.42/month plan to remove these ads.
Overall, Wix does a fairly good job of setting up the site on its own. From there, you can customize the site using the drag-and-drop builder and change the site's colors, fonts, etc.
The builder was a bit sluggish/slow at times. It even timed out a few times causing me to have to refresh the page.
WordPress would be the most difficult to use the bunch. But, it's really not that hard to use. It's just more complex.
What's great about WordPress is that there are a ton of themes (both free and paid) to choose from. The ease of use largely depends on the theme. Some themes will be significantly easier to use. Especially when they include a drag-and-drop page builder. Many of the premium themes do include this feature, and in my guide here, I recommend a few that you can use to make creating your website much easier.
Ease of Use Winner: Bandzoogle
Customization and Flexibility
When it comes to customization and the flexibility to add pretty much any added functionality to your site, WordPress is the hands down winner here. There's just no contest.
While you can change the colors, theme, and layout of your site using Wix or Bandzoogle, you can do so much more with WordPress. You can build any layout and look that you want, you're not confined to a set number of options.
There are thousands of themes to choose from and each theme usually has a bunch of different pre-built layouts you can use to make creating the site easy.
Additionally, if you want to add functionality to your website, you don't need to pay for an upgraded plan like you would with Bandzoogle or Wix. There are a ton of free plugins you can download to add extra features to your site like a music player, an events calendar, an Instagram gallery etc.
You can even add functionality that Bandzoogle and Wix simply don't have.
Want to add a social feed to your website that grabs your Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter posts and displays them on your website? You can do that with a free WordPress plugin. Want to set up a store on your site? You can do that with a free plugin.
Almost anything you can think of, you can add it to your site via a plugin that someone has already developed. All you have to do is install it and set it up.
The contest isn;t even close, if you want to create a fully customized website that's truly unique, then WordPress is your best bet.
Customization Winner: WordPress
Conclusion: Which Website Builder Should You Choose for Your Band Website?
If you're serious about your music career and about your website, then to me the choice is clear, the best option is WordPress.
For one, it's a cheaper option. If you build the website yourself, even when you consider the cost of purchasing a web hosting plan and domain name, building your website with WordPress will still be cheaper than Bandzoogle and Wix year-to-year. Remember the price comparison from earlier:
- WordPress + $4/month web hosting + $15/year domain name = $63
- Bandzoogle at $8.29/month = $99.48
- Wix at $10.42/month = $125
Even if you purchase a premium WordPress theme at $60 (which you can often find solid free themes), it doesn't put WordPress at that much higher of a cost in comparison to the other two options. Yet, you'll have a lot more customization options.
If you extrapolate the cost of each option year-over-year, WordPress becomes even more cost-effective. This is a huge thing to consider as a musician who is serious about their career. Making money as a musician isn't easy. You need to keep your costs as low as possible.
In addition, WordPress is much more powerful. You have the ability to build any layout you want and add just about any functionality you want via free and paid plugins.
Overall, with WordPress, you'll save more in the long run and have the ability to create a completely custom site.
For those of you who just need a simple website, and want it up fast, then go with Bandzoogle. But for those of you who are serious about your music career, and want a website that will be suitable in the long-term, choose WordPress.
Lastly, if you're worried about building a website with WordPress, I created this huge 14-step guide to building a band or musician website. The guide will walk you through each step of building your website with screenshots to help you follow along. Additionally, if you have any questions, you can always ask away in the comments below or in that guide.

Chelsea's young side littered with talent with Chalobah, Mount and Sterling equipped to go to the very top
CHELSEA stormed to their fourth successive FA Youth Cup success with a 5-1 demolition of Manchester City on Wednesday night.
Jody Morris' side turned on the style to see off their closest rivals 6-2 on aggregate with a display that proved the future is bright at Stamford Bridge.
The path to the first team at Chelsea is a tough one, with youngsters forced to fight for a place with some of the biggest stars in world football.
Keep up to date with ALL the Chelsea news, gossip and transfers on our club page
But the current crop is blessed with outstanding potential across the pitch who the club believe can make the transition into top professionals.
And SunSport runs the rule over three of the best talents to keep an eye on – who all have the chance to reach the very top for club and country.
Trevoh Chalobah
Younger brother of current Chelsea first-team midfielder Nathaniel, there is hope within Chelsea he could establish himself as the bedrock of the first team defence for years to come.
Made his debut in the club's under-21 team when still a schoolboy, Chalobah is the dominant force in the Blues defence and plays with the calm assurance of players like Rio Ferdinand and Ledley King.
Already tied down to a professional contract despite still only 17, Chalobah captains England at under-17 level and has also been advanced to the under-19s national side.
Scored the opening goal in Wednesday's second-leg win over City with a powerful header and already has the all-round game to be able to thrive at senior level.
Mason Mount
Captain of the all-conquering youth team, Mount is gaining a reputation for developing into a a creative attacking midfielder who also has the ability to compete physically.
The 18-year-old from Portsmouth has starred for England at four age groups up to under-19s, and has been accelerated through to the development squad.
Chelsea have such high hopes for the playmaker they have already handed him a four-year professional contract and is one of the youngsters who has caught the eye of first team boss Antonio Conte.
Good with either foot, with the ability to unlock defences with his passing range and skill, Mount is tipped to make the transition into the first team squad in the next year.
Dujon Sterling
Originally signed as a defender, Sterling is flourishing in the right-wingback role adopted by Chelsea and is another 17-year-old who has already signed a professional contract.
Combines strong defensive abilities with electric pace and was the star man in the Youth Cup final win, scoring the final goal in the thrashing of City.
The north London youngsters has already represented England up to under-19s level, and as a schoolboy was part of UEFA Youth League winning side.
Has been earmarked as a genuine talent to watch by both Chelsea and the England national team set-up.

Any search of the term 'Cyber Security Skills Gap' will return a laundry list of frightening facts about how far behind the industry is in terms of finding and hiring the needed professionals.
Those with the desired skills will be able to command high salaries, among other benefits. But for managers seeking the dime a dozen talent, it's a near impossible task, and often, vacant positions remain vacant, leaving organizations vulnerable to data breaches.
On my research quest to find out more on this topic, I came across a wide range of statistics, which I felt important to share, so I organized them into this info graphic at right.
Commonly, a bleak outlook from professionals in the field accompanied these statistics, like this one:
Marc van Zadelhoff, general manager of IBM Security, stated, "Even if the industry was able to fill the estimated 1.5 million open cyber security jobs by 2020, we'd still have a skills crisis in security. The volume and velocity of data in security is one of our greatest challenges in dealing with cyber crime."
And while I agree, there are many challenges at hand, but I am confident that as humans have always done, we will adapt. I believe that the solution is two-fold.
In order to adapt, organizations must make practical training a priority, integrating security best practices into traditional education and continuing that learning with onboarding and skills development from entry-level employees all the way to the most senior members, cyber security professional or not.
The sooner security best practices are introduced to students and employees, the better. Not only will early exposure allow for more consideration as a potential career/ career change, but foundational knowledge will allow for growth with the changing technologies.
Paul J. Mocarski, Director, of Global Information Security with Valspar says, "For companies that want to rely on already employed IT staff to handle security, it will require additional training. The training would be specific to needs and should include any compliance regulations required by the industry."
He expands, considering "Larger organizations will have the resources to develop and execute programs of this type internally, and smaller organizations should consider developing a curriculum and partnering with appropriate IT and cyber security training providers. Evaluating their own internal resource gaps will allow an organization to tailor their training programs to fill the identified needs."
Which is why adopting a proactive approach, regardless of if you're an educational institution, or a Fortune 500, is necessary.
The second part of the solution is recognizing that not only in training needed, it's also wanted.
According to the eighth Global Information Security Workforce Study, millennials want career development, including: sponsoring mentorship and leadership programs, paying for attendance at industry events, offering training programs, and employer- paid professional certifications and association memberships.
The study also found that millennials are more likely to aspire to become security consultants, but that salaries were not the highest priority for them.
On a larger scale not limited to millennials, 70% of employees say training and advancement opportunities affect whether they will quit their job. So, in addition to solving the problem of attracting the right employees, training can help retain them, too.
Developing a hands-on security training program may seem like an impossible task. That changes now.
Join Cybrary Co- Founder Ryan Corey as he provides some insight into the future of security training and demonstrates the capabilities of Cybrary's New Enterprise Training Management and Skill Assessment platform, Teams.
Register for the April 18th event here:
Olivia Lynch (@Cybrary_Olivia) is the Marketing Manager at Cybrary. Like many of you, she is just getting her toes wet in the field of cyber security. A firm believer that the pen is mightier than the sword, Olivia considers corny puns and an honest voice essential to any worthwhile blog.

The subsonic loading lends themselves to better noise reduction through the suppressor, and they also reduce noise by avoiding the ballistic crack inherent to supersonic loads. In addition, special clean-burning powders make cleaning weapons easy for shooters—other conventional ammunition can cause severe fouling in suppressed firearms.

Runs great through HK VP9 with RCM threaded barrel and Gemtech Multimount silencer.
by Anonymous - 2015-09-23 13:50
I greatly appreciate that Federal has jumped on the Suppressor band-wagon for a unique 124gr offering. If you have a pistol setup with a can this should be a good offering for you, however if you are running a SMG-Style 9mm weapon (UZI/MP5/Rifle) you will likely need to look to the 147 or 158gr offerings at SG. In my testing this runs great on a Glock 19 with a GemTech LID/multimount can. However the round is too light to reliably cycle the heavy bolt on an UZI clone and the round goes supersonic in a 16" barrel of a Colt 6951.

Palace of Florence II ,
Davis Island Map
The Palace of Florence, as shown here, was constructed in 1926 and restored in 2003. Its design was inspired by Palazza Vecchio, in Florence, Italy. The building was originally built as an apartment-hotel where people could rent one of its 28 rooms by the day, week, month, or year. On a side note, notice that the appearance of the electric poles don't appear to have changed much in the last eighty years.

Allegan police chief Rick Hoyer shut down an event where Kamal Seleem was to speak on the threat of radical Islam. This is an attack on the First Amendment rights of free speech and freedom of association. This was due to a rumor of a bounty on his head (which seems dubious). It's a shame that the police chief would surrender to the threats (real or imagined) of terrorists rather than stand up to them.

These days you can't buy a nice full size pickup loaded with all the gadgets unless it has wheels 20 inches or larger. In order to get into the cab of the truck, especially if you have a short 5'2" Mom like I do, you have to add running boards. That solves one problem. It made it easier for me to get into the truck also, but we won't tell Mom. I told her that I had them installed just for her.
The second problem comes the first time you try to crawl into the bed of the truck. As one who had back surgery and a knee replacement, crawling up into the back of the truck to unload a load of bagged gardening products was exhausting and painful after the first up and down, especially if the ole "Arthur" is acting up.
Three years ago I drove my sales rep crazy looking for something to help me, and he referred me to an accessory shop that the dealer uses. They had stopped carrying one that mounted in the tailgate as they had so much trouble with breakage, and showed me a ladder that mounted to the inside of the tailgate and folds out and down to the ground. I recently noticed one of GRIT's advertisers selling one that mounts into the hitch receiver and runs parallel to the bumper.
Life is much easier now that I don't have to do broad jumps. The ladder did create another small problem, well two. If you drive down the road with your tailgate down, nice people are yelling at you at stop lights that you are about to loose something out of the back of your truck. The second problem is when you get a load of bagged goods, the loaders are trying to move the ladder out of the way.
Blackie checking out things.
On the hooligan front, I have a problem with Patches breaking jail again. She's the one who constantly tests the fence to see if it is working. She has it figured out just how close she can get once she gets the vibration warning before getting shocked. I tied her up while changing batteries in her collar. I check it after replacing the battery and it still didn't work. My attention turned to the connections as they are the first area of problems with an underground fence. One connection at the bottom of the property was in standing water. I cut a section out and redid the connection with an exterior wire nut, and it still didn't work. When I first installed the fence, the wire was a small multi-stranded wire that corroded easily and was easily broken by critters such as the groundhog living in the nearby dry creek. I replaced a problem section hit by lightening and chewed by the groundhog with a newer solid strand wire, and it looks like it may be time to replace the rest. Going through the zoysia in the front yard will be a chore as the old wire will need to come up before the new goes in. If the new fence is near an old section, it cancels out the radio signal to the collars. Pulling up the rest down the property line between Mom's house and mine should be easy with all the rain we had. Down in the lower forty, I'll just dig a trench with my middle buster a few feet in.
We've been getting a lot of rain. Even 0.24 inches just sits on top of the saturated ground. Last summer 0.24 inches of rain would have quickly soaked in, and the ground would still be cracked. I might need to stock the garden with catfish this year.

I hope that everyone had the merriest of Christmases! I'm still trying to catch my breath, as this has been the busiest Christmas season EVER for me. I haven't had a chance to post alot since Thanksgiving, but I did want to share these cute pj's. They were made using the Children's Corner Lettie pattern. The main fabric is a multi-dot on pink and it is trimmed with lime microcheck. The pocket (not included in the pattern) is monogrammed in lime as well. I made a matching nightshirt (Maggie's Classics) for baby sister of the same fabric combinations, but (oops) forgot to take a picture of it! I'm sure both of these little girls looked just precious on Christmas morning in their matching monogrammed pj's.

Hey Jackie! I was looking for the toddler bathing suit pattern that I had seen the the SB blue edition last year (that I can't find at my black hole of a house) and found out on the site that it was YOURS!ReplyDelete
I didn't know that you had a blog! I have one too!
Great to find you, and beautiful work...as always!
These are so cute! And you won't believe this. Before I sewed for my daughter she used to have pj's like these that we bought at a boutique! I realized it recently when I was on Fairytale Frocks and Lollipops shop site and saw the pattern and now I plan to order it and make up more pjs. Isn't that neat!? I loved those pj's too.ReplyDelete
All your work is beautiful.

Designing a perfect teen's bedroom can be confusing. When the kid grows up we need to consider their opinions and styles. We could involve them to create a comfortable and suit with their age and needs. We've featured lots of attractive kid's room design that can be used for teens as well. Before start picking up the furniture design or maybe arrange the layout, you need to choose the background color first. You can choose orange or red for creating fresh interior or paint the wall with blue, green and white for calm room design. After the painting is done you can move to the next step, which is selecting furniture design. To get suitable furniture, you may want to measure the room first and choose the furniture that will perfectly fit the room's size. Choose necessary furniture only to avoid filling your kid's room with unimportant items. You can fill the room with bed (it can be single, double or bunk bed), wardrobe, study desk, chair and bookshelves. Those are enough for making a comfortable kid's room. When you already get the right furniture, you can start thinking about the layout. Choose a layout that provide an enough empty space and will not make the bedroom looks crowded. When those steps are done, you can add simple ornaments such as wall sticker, mural or others to make the bedroom look more alive. Below you can see 15 stylish and organized kids bedroom from Spanish designer Sergi that can enrich your ideas.

October 18, 1999, Section C, Page 1Buy Reprints
You've read the books. You may even see the movie. Now, behold the stock.
For months now, the phenomenon of the publishing world has been Harry Potter, the magical English schoolboy chronicled in three best-selling fiction books that currently occupy the three top slots on the New York Times best-seller list -- with a staggering five million hard-cover and three million paperbacks in print in the United States alone. Since 1997, additionally, the books have sold 2.2 million copies in the English-speaking world outside the United States, from Britain to Canada to Australia, making them best sellers from London to Melbourne.
Beneath this well-publicized literary storm, though, there is another, less-told tale of publishing near misses and a shrewd call by a medium-size British house, Bloomsbury Publishing P.L.C., which not only brought Harry Potter into print but has also brought investors flocking to its stock.
After other publishers passed up the adventures of the tousle-haired schoolboy wizard, Bloomsbury was the first book publisher on either side of the Atlantic to seize on the stories and their creator, J. K. Rowling.
And the stock market, not known for literary sensitivity, has fallen under the spell. First floated on the London Stock Exchange in 1994 at 105 pence, Bloomsbury shares had languished within a few pence of that price ever since -- until last spring. Then the Harry Potter phenomenon gathered steam, and Bloomsbury's shares took off like Harry's magic broomstick, closing on Friday at 456.5 pence ($7.62), a 176 percent rise since April 30.
Not bad results from an initial investment of $3,300 in 1996, which is the advance Bloomsbury paid for the first Harry Potter book, published the following year as ''Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.'' Who could have predicted back then that by the time ''Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,'' the third book in the series, went on sale in Britain last July, just before school vacation, booksellers would feel compelled to delay the released until 3:45 P.M. so that children would not play hooky to snap up the first editions.
Although the greater marketing might of the publisher of the United States editions, the Scholastic Corporation, has undoubtedly helped stoke Potter fever, Bloomsbury has benefited from being able to release the British editions a few months before the American versions. Many American children and their parents, in fact, know Harry and his fellow students at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from the British versions they have bought over the Internet -- books that use different art, different typography and in some cases different spelling and vocabulary than their American cousins. (With the first book, for example, the ''Philosopher's Stone'' in the British title was changed to ''Sorcerer's Stone,'' for the American release.)
Bloomsbury, with annual revenue last year of less than $25 million, is but a fraction the size of Scholastic, which had sales of more than $1.1 billion last year. And Scholastic's stock price has shown scant sign of a Potter levitation; the shares, which closed on Friday at $47.94, are actually below their high for the year of $58.75 on Jan. 6.
But for Bloomsbury, the series' runaway success has been nothing less than a coup -- for the editors who first spotted Ms. Rowling's talent, and for the company's 44-year-old chief executive, Nigel Newton. It was Mr. Newton who set up Bloomsbury with four partners and $2.65 million in venture capital just 13 years ago and has since advanced steadily in the staid world of British publishing.
Quite apart from publishing the Harry Potter series, Mr. Newton, a dual citizen of Britain and the United States, has helped created another potential money-spinner: the Encarta World English Dictionary, produced with the software giant Microsoft. Mr. Newton approached Microsoft in 1991, proposing a joint CD-ROM and bound-book dictionary project. The $48 book version, which Bloomsbury released in August, has already sold 400,000 copies, according to the company, which expects the dictionary to generate some $68 million in sales over the next decade.
Mr. Newton's bold, entrepreneurial management style has won him strong support from the institutional investors that hold about a quarter of Bloomsbury's shares, according to Louise Barton, a media analyst with the brokerage firm of Investec Henderson Crosthwaite. ''They could be vulnerable'' to a takeover, Ms. Barton said, ''but there would be strong support for the management from the institutions.''
Written partly in cafes when the author, Ms. Rowling, was on welfare as a single mother, the first book in the Harry Potter series was initially rejected by a series of leading British publishing houses. In fact, Ms. Rowling had trouble even finding an agent to represent her.
''She sent three chapters,'' Christopher Little, her agent, recalled of her over-the-transom submission in 1995. ''We don't do children's books, so it was lying in the slush pile. It must have been at the top because you pick up from the top. And so it got read. There was something that was so exciting that we wanted her on an exclusive basis.''
Even with Mr. Little representing the book, though, at least four more major British publishers rejected it. Then, an editor at Bloomsbury scanned the opening page and began to read on, passing chapters as they were read to colleagues around the office. The company made its offer the next day.
The feeling, Mr. Newton said, was that ''we have just bought the most extraordinary book.''
In the United States, where Ms. Rowling is currently on a book-signing tour that is drawing crowds of children and adults, more than a half-dozen publishers joined the bidding when Mr. Little offered the first book to American publishers in 1997, after it was released in Britain. Scholastic's Levine/Scholastic imprint beat out a group that included Hyperion, Putnam and Random House with a bid of $105,000.
Jean Feiwel, publisher of the Scholastic Book Group in New York, recalled the gamble: ''The auction went pretty high for a book that was going well in England but hadn't broken any box-office records. And it wasn't clear that the success would translate across the ocean.''
Time Warner's Warner Brothers, meanwhile, signed a separate deal for an unspecified amount for movie and merchandising rights. The film is set to appear in 2001. Ms. Rowling herself has said she will produce a book a year until the series is complete -- seven books, one for each of Harry's years at the Hogwarts boarding school, with the next one due out next July.
Both Bloomsbury and Scholastic say they expect to publish the entire series, although neither would disclose its financial arrangements with Ms. Rowling. But already, Mr. Little said, the book's earnings for the author are ''well into the seven figures, not yet in eight figures.'' And, with four more books in the offing, some critics have forecast that the tales will enter the pantheon of children's books alongside the works of C. S. Lewis and other enduring classics.
Arthur A. Levine, the Scholastic editor whose imprint is publishing the American Harry Potter editions, sees their success as ''the combination of a really great book getting a lot of attention and that's magic; even in this day and age, that can drive a business success.''
''But it's not marketing magic,'' Mr. Levine said. ''It's the magic of writing and the magic of reading.''
For Bloomsbury, meanwhile, even if the Harry Potter publicity blizzard has obscured some of Bloomsbury's other achievements, the breakthrough has reinforced Mr. Newton's stated belief: In an age when book publishing is often an appendage of a media leviathan, there remains a place for smaller, independent outfits focused on literary fiction and reference works.
''Publishing is still a human-scale activity, no matter how large an entity you create around it,'' said Mr. Newton, whose company is based in an 18th-century house in London's raffish Soho district. ''So there's a very good argument for publishing being done by units that combine the sort of clout that we do have as publishers with flexibility, speed of decision making and the lack of bureaucratic layers.''
Mr. Newton grew up in San Francisco, the son of an English father and American mother. He came to Britain at age 18 as an undergraduate at Cambridge University and has lived here virtually ever since. He worked in publishing at Macmillian and then Sidgwick & Jackson before starting Bloomsbury at the age of 31, where he scored an early success with Scott Turow's ''Presumed Innocent.''
And he has been quick to embrace the trans-Atlantic, digital age -- not only with the Microsoft deal but also with an on-line book-selling service, Bloomsbury.com, and plans for a United States subsidiary, Bloomsbury USA.
And what has all this meant for Bloomsbury's balance sheet?
Earlier this month the company released figures for the first half of the year -- traditionally the least profitable period for publishers -- showing that it had narrowed its losses to $169,000, compared with a loss of $539,000 in last year's first half. First-half sales of $10.56 million were up 30 percent from the comparable period a year earlier.
The recent figures included the amortization of costs relating to some of the $4.62 million outlays from the Encarta deal with Microsoft and the development of two other big data base projects the company is keeping under wraps.
Significantly, the first-half figures did not include the success of the third Harry Potter book, which was published in Britain on July 8 and released in the United States last month.
Analysts now expect Bloomsbury to record a pretax profit for this calendar year of more than $4.1 million on sales of $29.7 million. That will include the year-end holiday season, when Mr. Newton is predicting huge sales, which he said he hoped would be buoyed by special cloth-bound editions of the Harry Potter books that are to retail for around $30 each, compared with about $18 for the current cardboard hard covers.
Of course, the company is not solely dependent on Ms. Rowling. It has published best-selling work in Britain by pedigreed authors who include Nadine Gordimer, Michael Ondaatje, Margaret Atwood, David Guterson, Joanna Trollope, John Irving and Anna Pavord.
''Our interest is literary fiction and that's what we publish,'' Mr. Newton said. ''And if you examine the best-seller lists of the past three years, it's quite clear that literary fiction is at the top of the heap.''
Ms. Barton, the Investec analyst, said Bloomsbury's stable of authors, as well as its Microsoft Encarta venture and other data base projects, would attract investors over the next few years. She rates the stock a buy. ''Harry Potter is only one factor,'' she said, but ''it's a high-profile factor.''
''The City likes visibility,'' she said, referring to London's financial district.
And no one is pretending that so much visibility -- buzz might be an even better word -- would have come to the company without that upstart wizard, Harry Potter.

Remember how I said the first time I met him I didn't feel any sparks or violent earth shaking quakes? This time was totally different. It felt like a massive volcanic vortex opened up beneath my feet and I was on a shaky plastic perch just over the open trench of doom. Heat engulfed my entire body and my stomach completely tried to desert me by jumping out of my throat. My heart galloped into over drive super speed forcing sweat to pour from my skin like Niagara falls. It wasn't pretty.
When his eyes clashed with mine I felt the entire world shift, but I was the only one affected by it. His soft brown eyes only linked with mine for a moment and a small smile slipped across his features before they pulled away again to focus more clearly on the pictures being taken.
The whirlwind encapsulating me petered out to a gentle hum and I was left shaken, sweaty, and breathless. From one single look! Thank God he didn't actually say something to me or I would have been panting on my knees begging for a defibrillator.
The feeling of being swallowed whole wasn't a new one, not around him at least. For the most part I felt shaky in my knees every time I saw him, but this one moment in particular I swore that the world would never be the same for me unless he was there in it with me.
Before we were even a serious couple, before things really took off, he had to leave for a weekend trip up north. I dropped him off at the train station and tried not to cry as I waved him off. That weekend was one of the worst weekends of my life. It was miserable being without him. Even in the day of texting, phone conversations, skype, and everything. I missed the taste of his skin, the heat of his body, the warmth of his smile, the blaze of desire running through his eyes before they twinkled with softer emotions.
When he returned a few days later I was back at the train station in my absolute best attire. I spent extra time on my hair, extra minutes on perfecting my makeup. I wanted to be what he needed. The second he walked out onto the train platform it felt like I was in a movie. Time slowed to a crawl when our eyes spotted each other from across the busy space of hustling bodies. I gasped as I felt a crashing vortex slam against me. By the time we reached each other I was a goner.
My heart slammed against my chest strumming a cadence I had never felt before, my face ached deliciously from how wide I was smiling and my eyes burned with the desire to cry salty sweet tears. I didn't need to be rescued from the whirling sensation because his hands were all I needed to keep me up, his body was all I needed to keep me steady.
That changed when he walked away. Actually it's more appropriate to say I shoved him away and he listened to me even though he begged me not to do it. Honestly what did I know, I was a damn idiot. I had everything I ever wanted in the palm of my hand and I tossed it away at the earliest sign of struggle.
Sure I can blame it on age, on distance, on the fact that I wasn't ready; but the truth is that I was ready, and I was scared. I have never been one able to deal with commitment, and the certainty of him completely terrified me.
So now I'm sitting inside the large white reception tent clutching the small plastic card with my name on it. Miss Grace Parker. It's nice to see the three letter prefix, like it wasn't already half impossible to go to a wedding filled with couples and realize you are practically the only Miss in the entire party. I contemplate getting up and leaving, I already did my duty as his friend. I came to the ceremony like he had asked me to, I didn't really need to stay.
I didn't move though, I knew I wouldn't. Despite the angst of frustration coiling in my belly I knew I wouldn't leave, not without speaking to him first. Not without saying my final good bye. Not without knowing the decision I made so very long ago was still the right one.
Should I have the chicken at this damn wedding, or the fish? I can't decide. I am going to have the champagne though, keep that one coming.

Quick note:
It's easy to allow the mind to fester and drown in its own confusion. We ignore it because no one but ourselves know it. But this overworking of the mind translates to the tongue. How we speak. The words we say. I've learnt the importance of tending to my mind and my tongue, with equal attention, and with equal concern.

Fashion News: Vanessa Williams fights chilly L.A. weather in style
Vanessa Williams of "Desperate Housewives" and "Ugly Betty" seemed to really, really enjoy the Los Angeles Opera's opening night performance of "Romeo and Juliet" on Sunday night, as was evident when she shared a giggle with Vittorio Grigolo, the night's Romeo, backstage. But more to the point: We liked her solution to staying warm on a chilly (for L.A.) evening. Her white coat with its plethora of military-style buttons -- seen at left, as she posed with opera general director Placido Domingo -- looked warm enough for the weather but sleek enough to top her black-and-white-checked gown. [SocietyNews LA]
Jessica Chastain, who has appeared in "The Help," "Tree of Life" and "Take Shelter" this year, is reportedly lined up to play Princess Diana, an icon of the fashion world. [Washington Post]
There have been countless interviews with Diane von Furstenberg in print, but we don't see her on camera too much. Now filmmaker Loic Prigent has shot a 12-part online documentary on the designer, showing her talking about her work and hosting dinner parties, among other things. [The Cut]
Here's a surprise: According to a new study, the U.S. city that spends the most for clothes, shoes and accessories is not New York or L.A. (neither made the top 10, in fact) but Washington. Researchers at Bundle.com looked at U.S. census data, credit card company information and "third-party data providers" to determine that the national average spending per person per month is $142.08; in D.C., it's $263. Although L.A. didn't make the top 10, three other California cities did: San Francisco, San Jose and Bakersfield. Yep, you read that right. [The Cut]
What scent drives a vampire wild? A mix of cool citrus and wild chamomile, white freesia, peony, musk, cool amber and patchouli. Those are the notes in Twilight Beauty's new scent, Immortal, inspired by Bella's and Edward's romance -- which moves to the next level in "Breaking Dawn, Part I," the latest in the "Twilight Saga," opening Nov. 18. [Fashion Etc]
Demi Lovato has dyed her hair red, the most fashionable color of the year. [People]
New York Giants QB Eli Manning has teamed with Citizen to design two limited-edition Eli Manning chronograph watches. Just 1,000 of each timepiece have been made, and they sell for $599 (with a polyurethane strap) and $675 (stainless steel) each. Proceeds will go to the March of Dimes. [People]

GEICO Corporate Advantage Program
Watch the GEICO & Upper Iowa University Partnership video.
GEICO associates may now complete their core business courses or earn business degrees with a tuition grant through the Upper Iowa University Corporate Advantage Program (CAP). The CAP program currently offers a $350 tuition grant to GEICO associates, which is based on GEICO participation.
All UIU courses are available online; some may be offered face-to-face at GEICO locations. Face-to-face classes will meet once a week; online classes offer 24-hour access to discussion boards.
UIU classes are offered in five 8-week sessions and one 6-week session a year. Each UIU course can be completed in half the time of a typical 16-week semester. Associates who are not in compliance with GEICO education requirements can quickly become compliant.
Associates can submit previous college transcripts and transfer up to 90 previous college credits to UIU towards an associate's, bachelor's or master's degree in business. Spouses and other dependents, up to age 26, also are eligible for tuition grants.
Associates also can take up to 30 credit hours (10 classes) before being accepted to the university and declaring a major.
Consult with a UIU advisor to build your education plan.
The GEICO CAP offers delayed payment for each class. GEICO pays UIU directly after you complete each class with at least a C-. Your only out-of-pocket cost is textbooks.
Apply to UIU online AND submit an online GEICO "Request for Tuition Reimbursement" through Self-Service before the start of class.

I have a Nissan Almera 2002 model 1600 and it is giving me whip lash. The head blew and I got somebody to do the whole fix, etc and ever since then, it has a jerk, but a specific jerk. When between 1500 and 2000 revs it jerks like crazy so you have to either drive below 1500 revs or above 2000 revs and use huge amounts of petrol all the time. I have had 4 different mechanics look at it with no joy. The engine warning light is not on and I have replaced the cam sensor and it helped for a while but came back after a week. The rev counter also jumps most of the time. Please help.
My car has 355000 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.
Hi, thanks for writing in. I'd be happy to provide my insight. A symptom such as this can certainly be difficult to figure out. If I were working on your car, I would connect a scanner to it, check and see what data it provides, and if it provides me with the necessary data, I would take your car on an extensive test drive while I watch and record the data. If this is occurring consistently, it will be fairly simple to catch a glitch in one of the sensors. Granted, it takes the knowledge and experience to know what and when to look for it.
The best this will do is isolate the component system that is creating the problem. From there a thorough inspection of the sensor and wiring will ensue. Often this can be quite time consuming. In addition, direct testing with some advance equipment will be required. Which equipment depends on which system is the suspected culprit. This will require a few hours of diagnosis at the least. It really depends on the experience level of the technician.
You have replaced the camshaft sensor, but the crank sensor is what affects the tachometer, (rev counter). So I would begin by monitoring the crank sensor pattern. This is advanced diagnostic work, so you will need someone who has a lot of experience doing these sorts of things.
If you would like help, consider having an expert automotive technician from YourMechanic come to your home or office to inspect and diagnose this issue for you, and make or suggest any repairs as needed.
