How to get Traffic to your WordPress

Well , Once you install it, do not change any settings that refer to the way the urls are submitted, except for date and time format.
Because you make it not show a date and somehow , no one comes to your site. do not under any circumstances change that after. because all your submitted links prior to change, will be dead.
Pings, well you are best off using feed burner or ping-o-matic.
They know the right places. but you can submit via This WordPress Ping List.
That works also, just to much at once get you blacklisted from searches, especially if qny of those use the same serves.
Write short titles.. Ironic I know, this post has a huge title.
Keep tags correct, and keep Categories full and precise, or no one will find you when they search.
Write well enough, they might just bookmark you.

Good luck and happy writing.

Liberty Names Of America, Mail Scam?

I received this mail from liberty Names of America , also known as lnoa
The mail goes like this:

As a courtesy we would like to remind you that it is time to renew your domain name which is expiring soon. Failure to renew your domain will result in losing exclusive rights to it on the web and losing access to your online presence. By moving your domain to Liberty Names Of America, you can take advantage of the savings we have to offer. Your renewal will start from the day your domain name expires, even th you are signing up months earlier.

It goes on to shoot prices at me for my domain name. Saying that truxtertech.com will go for one year at $29 , two years at $49 and five years at $94.
I can not help but laugh in disgust. I pay 6.99 a year through netfirms for one of my other domain names. I could switch my domain myself for $150 for 10 years at bravenet.com
The people I am registered through for this current domain name is powweb.com I pay $94 a year for unlimited storage space and bandwidth, unlimited email accounts, 75 mysql databases and the domain name is free. My bill is automatically charged to my account before expiration. They can’t help lower my costs any. Why would I want to even consider Liberty Names ? They make it clear that they are not forcing me to re-up on my domain name. But the mail does look like it would be scary to someone who is new to this planet. Not that this an advertisement but hey, if you register through powweb, Let them know you read about their deal from me, I get a kick back from that stuff and it would help out a whole lot.

Well just a heads up to anyone who is doing a search in google for that dang company. They are not the registrants of your domain …. yet, So you might want to head back to where you first bought that domain and pay up. some companies might squat on it and turn it into a spam site. I lost truxter.org that way years ago. Bought it late last year and it has been a hard battle to get it back into search engines.
Is Liberty Names Of America a Scam ? I dunno, but their prices are far out of my reach.
Here’s what other’s think
Search That’s to see rip off Claims
This is to see people calling them a scam.
Others saying they are overpriced

Another Mini Blog Thingy

jive.ly
From what I see at TechCrunch it’s a one man show with building that ap.
but Says he is taking on twitter with it.
Compares to a few others.
Not sure if we are supposed to say “Jively” or Jive-l-y =-
We will see after the snobs fondle it for a while and tell us if it’s cool or not
(aka the not so techy crew who bang with rocks can’t figure out, call stupid and walk away guys)

LOL just kidding. Try it out, tell me what you think.

Try the Video addon and images, tell me how you liked it and what you found.
Is it better than Twitter?

What is a good webhosting service?

I’m happy with my current host, and about to recommend a friend there.
but i am wondering what company gives the least amount of frustration?
bluehost?
justhost?
powweb?

I do plan to use php and mysql while working on their site for them.
so please any and all information is good.
Should I get justhost? all the sites say it’s great, but all the blogs and forums say it’s only a year old and a rip off. but i do not know. what do you think of justhost,bluehost,powweb ?
something other?
comments section is wide open you do not have to create an account to comment.

like this site says they are wonderful (read closely)
and they teach you how to search the internet to see if they “suck”
but I tried to search for something else
I found this when I searched “Scam”

Of course I found this when I followed their rules

But then again, we are talking about a tech community. Techies do pick and peck at all details, especially when worrying about income and monetizing the internet’s activity.

So people, tell what is good
Bang for buck, what is the best hosting plan
I personally Like Powweb, They seem to have the lowest cost and most options.

Facebook’s New Look. Good or Bad?

have you seen the new look of facebook?
Seems not many are happy with the new look.
I myself make it loud and clear that I hate facebook and it’s interactivity.
The place is the antisocial network. You can’t call it a social network if the only
friends you can have, are friends you already have.

We are not happy, and we are not stupid

Despite those numbers, despite rabid user loyalty, you’re losing money, so much money you got delisted from Forbes’ Masters of the Universe Billionaires list. At the same time another social network, much smaller than yours with less functionality and more questionable future, is gaining a lot of buzz and membership.

Internet Explorer released

Well here we are passed the whole” let’s catch up with firefox” phase of adding tabs. Let’s see if explorer caught up on the whole ” well let’s let them see the page they are trying to access , before we ask them if they want to save the password.” One thing I hate is when a page will not load until I select yes or no on save password “what if I typoed”.

Some have informative responses (kinda)

Steve Ballmer, the chief executive officer of Microsoft, said: “With Internet Explorer 8, we are delivering a browser that gets people to the information they need, fast, and provides protection that no other browser can match.”

but here is the actual page so you can evaluate for yourself
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx

Now you can quickly display websites that were designed for older browsers. If you’re looking at a page and the text or images aren’t lined up right, just use the new Compatibility View button next to the Refresh button on the Address Bar.

Cloud Computing taking off?

Looks like everyone is buzzing about cloud computing right now.
Cnet
I don’t think I trust the whole “cloud” computing crap.. The whole being in it’s name is very broad and leaves to much to your imagination, and turns out … quite cloudy.

but again, the whole day is nothing but cloud this

and Cloud that
