We have moved hosts after a few days of host hell
We will be online now with no downtime (hopefully).

We are currently using Host Monster and we was using Host Nine and as you can see Host Monster is far better as the servers are much faster and the uptime and support seems to be better and so hopefully we will not need to move hosts for a long time

We appreciate the continued support and we shall give rewards for your support
We will post more articles in a few days so stay tuned for more great information from Monetize Guru

Monetize Guru was offline for over 24 hours and there was some data lost because of a crap web host. The host to blame is host nine. The point being is we are finally back online and I have now learned a valuable lesson which is that I should back up every day and which I will from now on and I hope this will never happen again

I will be re-adding all links etc that have been lost

If your looking for a bit of spare cash then maybe buying and selling domains is a good idea. I found two NLL.info domains and sold them both and made a small profit of $4 which isn’t much but its only for a little bit of work.

They are not that hard to find and I found them via Oddity Software and if you find a three or four combo .com then you can make a few hundred profit.

I sold my domains on Digital Point Forums but there is also Namepros & SEDO.

So get searching and make some extra cash

I have recently moved domain registrars and so I thought I’d post a quick article to do with domain registrars.

There are a few big domain registrars e.g. Godaddy and Namecheap etc.

I have had no experience with Namecheap but I have been with Godaddy before a few times. Personally I wouldn’t recommend Goddady for anything… There site has loads of problems, bad support and their control panel is rubbish.

I no longer use them for my domains. I have moved to DomainSite as a friend recommended them and their control panel is different from Godaddy but so far I have not had any problems with them.

One good thing about Godaddy is that they have loads of vouchers and different deals and so you can buy your domains cheaper which is probably why they got such bad support

A domain is normally under $10 per year and so its better going with someone good and so I would not go for prices… I would go for what others recommend.

I wouldn’t go for those websites that offer free domains as its not that easy to move it to a domain registrar if you need to renew it or if you are trying to sell your website.

Choosing a good web host is really important… If you pick the wrong host then you could loose customers, visitors or even your website

I have made a list below of what you need to be looking out for in a web host:

• Uptime

You need to look on their website for there current uptime stats and if they have non then send them a message asking for it as otherwise you could find that they are down every other day.

• Space, Bandwidth etc

You need to get the right amount of space, monthly bandwidth etc for your website. On the internet there are a lot of oversellers which promise a lot but they do not deliver it. You need to be careful with oversellers as they normally offer you an amazing deal but they are more likely to suspend your website or even shut down.

• Reputation

The best hosts are normally the most well known and have the best reputation. If you want to know about a web host then you should visit a few forums e.g. 9mb – Webmaster Forum or Digital Point Forums and ask their members but remember every ones opinions are different.

• Small & Large Hosts

This is kinda the same as reputation but you need to watch out for web hosting offers you see on forums. If you look on a forum and see a new host that has a few amazing offers e.g. 100GB space, 500GB monthly bandwidth for only $2.99 then I bet you that host will either suspend your site if you use “too much” of what they promise you or within a few weeks, they will shut down.

There are a few large well known web hosts that offer much more and they are less likely to suspend your site or shut down but in the end if you use “too much” of your plan… They will eventually suspend your website.
