Best Web Hosting Providers 2010

December 10, 2010 by Leave a Comment

For bloggers like me, having a reliable website hosting is very very important. Advertisers for my blogs and readers must always access my blogs any time of the day that’s why a 100% uptime is necessary. So far I only have two web hosts, my first is from Mommy Rubz of Mom’s Hosting and the second one is Blue Host. I’m satisfied with Mommy Rubz’s services because she helped me thought the baby steps of blogging, hosting and other things a newbie blogger needs to know. She assisted me in migrating from Blogspot to WordPress blog. And since I was able to grasp some tips on setting up new blogs and buying new domains, I decided to try getting a new web host which is Blue Host. I chose this after reading different webhosting reviews and taking into consideration what I really need from a hosting service.

Every year, various sites lists down their top web hosts. Webhostingfan.com presents the Top Web Hosting Providers for 2010:

  1. Web Hosting Hub
  2. InMotion
  3. iPage
  4. Web Hosting Pad
  5. Host Gator

Are you still looking for more ways to earn money online? Aside from paid posts, pay per clicks, and text link ads and other money earning opportunity available online, have you heard of revenue sharing? The first revenue sharing program I’ve tried is on YouSayToo.com, I added this blog Everything Nice! a year ago and I’m happy with the results. There’s a significant increase in my adsense earnings since then. Maybe because YouSayToo comes out first on Google search sometimes and my blog content lands on the first page of Google. I indicated my Adsense ID in YouSayToo so that every time my content earns clicks, Iget to have a percentage of the earnings from YouSayToo.

Searching for a new WordPress theme

April 6, 2010 by 5 Comments

Over the Holy Week vacation, I’m such in a bored state and suddenly I found myself buying a new domain. I won’t reveal yet my new website but I’m planning to make it as my more personal blog. It’s still in WordPress so I’m still on the look-out for cool wordpress themes.

I found some nice ones at WPrex.com, they have plenty of free wordpress themes. I fancy the red and white theme below but I also like the LV background of the other theme:

After joining Adgitize last year, I received my first payment from them, $12.16. I wasn’t expecting to earn from them since I use Adgitize primarily to gain more traffic to my blog and not as a source of income. But a message from Paypal showed this:

December 30, 2009 by 10 Comments

Last December 23, 2009, I got a Christmas gift from Google that my payment was issued and is ready for pick-up at Western Union branches the following day.

But hey, after experiencing this, I think I’m gonna work hard on blogging next year. And with the help of Adgitize, I can get more traffic on my blog, hence, more chances of earning from clicks.

How to get more traffic to your blogs even without updating

December 28, 2009 by 7 Comments

I’m not an expert when it comes to blogging, I don’t even pay attention to my blog’s PR anymore and those SEO-thingamajigs but I just want to share something I discovered. As you have noticed, I stopped updating this blog since December 1 and only resumed the other day. I’m so busy this month and I can’t even do bloghopping anymore. From past experiences, whenever I get inactive in blog posting and blog hopping, my site’s statistics significantly drops. I lose significant amount of visitors on my site, hence, less chances of earning from Adsense.

I get traffic from all forms such as Plurk, forum, Entrecard, blogroll and comments from other blogs. When I stopped doing these since first week of December, I’m quite surprised to receive visitors and an INCREASE on my adsense earnings as well. What I’ve done? I became a member of Adgitize and advertised my site with them. I paid $ 14 for a one-month ad to run on other publishers’ websites and automatically gain exposure and traffic to my site.
