A hosting partner with a lot more …
Finding the right hosting partner makes all the difference in the world for me. In order to keep up with what is going on in my own world and beyond, engaging social media networks, tweeting, writing blog posts, staying current with technology, working on design and marketing projects and trying to eat, sleep and have some spare time (unsure what that is) the one thing I do not have time for is down time, due to server or hosting issues. One thing that impressed me about this host is that I called them about 11:00 pm to see how their support was; and to see if anyone actually picked up the phone … or how long they would make me wait. To my surprise, they picked up in less than two minutes and they spoke my language. I looked at the helpdesk support on their site; which is very helpful and comprehensive. I checked out their cPanel demo; which added tremendous value to the WIIFM factor. They give you $50 in Google AdWords credit, $25 in Yahoo credit, another $25 bonus credit, simple scripts, 24/7 responsive and superb support; plus a lot, lot more. Read more
Finally – A Top Secret Way You Can Get
A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to get your Google AdWords pay-per-clicks FREE!
A gentleman from New York discovered what he calls an “oversight” on the part of 99.9% of all marketers that allows him to get otherwise paid-for advertising at Google as well as all other search engines that allow sponsored ads.
And no, nothing about his “secret” is illegal – nor does it require that you know someone on the “inside” at Google, Yahoo, MSN, Overture and others. Read more
Twitter Traffic Machine: Social Media Amway?
What’s up with the Twitter Traffic Machine? I watched the video of the two guys hawking this program. It starts out … two guys in a basement … sounds a lot like the start of the Amway story. (Okay, maybe it’s a sub-level apartment … I don’t know) If you haven’t seen it, picture a video version of the famous keep-on-scrolling, I’ve got more promises and testimonials sales letter pages that guarantee you will make a bundle or your money back. (except there are only two or three testimonials) Unfortunately, there are no Ginsu knives or PoPeet containers if you act now, but wait, the hype is not to that level. Read more
Upgrade your browser!
Have you started seeing websites that seem to be full of quirks? Do you arrive at websites to be greeted with a message that tells you that you need to upgrade your browser to a better browser. Likely the message also mentions that you are using Internet Explorer 6. Do yourself a favor, and make IE6 a memory!
IE6 is a nightmare for web designers. Pages that are designed and look the same in all other A Grade browsers, will look differently on IE6, unless the website designer has used a bunch of CSS hacks to address these quirks inherent to Internet Explorer 6 and other quirks inherent in prior versions of Internet Explorer. I did have IE6 installed on one of my computers, IE7 on another and IE8 on another; along with Firefox, Safari and Chrome. However, not too long back I was using a computer with IE6 and was unable to even access a couple of sites, including my MySpace page. Unless I used a different browser I could not access those sites. If you have not experienced this yet, you probably will soon. If you have experienced it occasionally, you will likely run into the same problem more often, until your upgrade your browser. Read more
Firefox crashes when I try to upload an image in WordPress
Firefox crashes when I try to upload an image in WordPress
I am using WordPress 2.7.1 and have been unable to upload images using the Flash uploader or image uploader. Every time I try to upload an image Firefox crashes. I am using Firefox 3.0.10. I was not sure what was happening. However, it is a pain when there are plugins that require this method to upload images that can be accessed for their respective application.
I also had been having problems that were specific to Firefox; with being able to add widgets to the right sidebar, using the new dynamic sidebars in WordPress. Read more
