Do you think it might prove useful to categorize these sites into "personal
sites and blogs" and "project sites"?  To some extent this page exists to
promote ikiwiki and show its popularity, and those two categories contribute
to ikiwiki's popularity in different ways.  Personal sites and blogs primarily
contribute through sheer numbers ($BIGNUM personal sites and blogs use
ikiwiki), while project sites primarily contribute based on their own
notability (UK Software Patents Info uses ikiwiki; the ion site uses ikiwiki).
Burying the project sites in with the rest tends to make people less likely to
notice them and remark on their notability.  --[[JoshTriplett]]

Where can I get a webhost for ikiwiki? Could someone tell me?
I am very much interested in ikiwiki yet My server does not support some Perl Modules that ikiwiki requires.
So did some of you try install ikiwiki on DREAMHOST?
Or any suggestion where can I get a host which supports ikiwiki?
Thanks, --[[Chao]]

Thanks for the reply Joey! ikiwiki is a fantastic wiki complier, though I do
not have my own machine momentarily, i will pay close attention to its development.
Hopefully I will be one of the ikiwiki users one day :) cheers --[[Chao]]

Are there automated hosting sites for ikiwiki yet?  If you know one, can you add one in a new section on [[ikiwikiusers]] please?  If you don't know any and you're willing to pay to set one up (shouldn't be much more expensive than a single ikiwiki IMO), [contact me](http://www.ttllp.co.uk/contact.html) and let's talk. -- MJR
