The Site Name
… Came to me in a dream (alongside the whole concept of the site)! Divalicious is the original name, but after about a year I felt like I needed a change. OhSoDivalicious just came from me saying stuff was “oh so …” and seemed to click.

Website History
Back in 2007, I wanted to try out coding on a more ‘pro’ site. Torrie-Media was my first media site, but after the coding totally flopped (thanks Conor! ;D), I couldn’t fix it! So anyways… I tried again. This time alone (but with a bit of Firefox help..) At the time, I loved making media on Divas mostly. My Piczo site (wwefanatic1) had loads of divas stuff on it, even though it’s was supposed to be an all roster site. Divalicious seemed like a decent name for an all Divas site, I didn’t need to do a long think for it, I’m usually good with coming up with site names anyway.
So, signing up for Divalicious… Freewebs said it was already taken. Damnit! I added a ‘-’ to see if it would even accept it and it did! I was going to add an ‘x’ so it’d be Divalicious-x but it didn’t look very nice, in my opinion.
So there I was: www.freewebs.com/divalicious- .. Type it on MSN conversations and the dash isn’t part of the URL… So I changed again: www.divalicious-.webs.com, shorter and nicer! I even went and signed up for another little alternative, a ‘uni.cc’ domain name. ‘Divalicious’ was available! So yet another URL for Divalicious was: www.divalicious.uni.cc!
I continued that way for a while, but while using site templates (from Createblog), it took a long amount of time to change up everything whenever I wanted a new layout. I planned to go back to basics and ordered a HTML coding package from Maddie. She went on holiday, so as I was randomly chatting to (Über-Awesome) Shaibanii about wanting to get hosted and stuff, then he popped the question! … C’mon, keep with it; I’m talking about websites here! He said he could host me! My URL then changed to: www.divalicious.phenom4life.com. for about a month I had that site URL (and .uni.cc, which I changed so that it linked to P4L’s site URL).
Then on 4th July 2008, my dream became a reality, again, the (Über-Awesome!) Shaibanii actually bought the domain name: www.ohsodivalicious.org! ♥
So here we are now! The dream is now fully alive – OhSoDivalicious[dot]org! :D
Later on virus sightings had been spoken of, left, right + center, so the host-y bit was changed to osd.phenom4life.com! Again, more problems. Fan sites being in fear of being shut down by WWE.Com put OhSoDivalicious, Divas media site, in jeopardy. So another change. OhSoDivalicious, the news/gossip/fun-fan site was born, which involved hiring more staff members: Marc, Lisa, Marcella & Conor, in April 2009.
Virus sightings had caused a hiatus for about a month, while my laptop broke… So that caused more delays while being on hiatus! Luckily, it’s all good! In May 2009, OhSoDivalicious officially converted to Nerdpress WordPress and we’ve been going strong since then!
