Currently i am using blogger. I am thinking to start a new blog. I want to shift to wordpress. Thats why i need a good and reliable host. But it is really not too easy to get good web hosting. So i was searching for good host. I also asked people in forums. A guy told me to see a big list of web hosting reviews at webhostinggeeks.com .
I visited and really i was impressed. Lot of reviews. Lot of critics by users. It was perfect for me to choose the right one. I got a lot of options there. I could search by top 10 web hosting , multiple domain, free domain, yahoo and adward credit.I started reading those reviews and features those were available in web hosts. I was really scared after reading the customer reviews. Because the hosts i have thought best they were simply bad. I realized it after reading the customer reviews. I have also understood that nothing is unlimited in this earth. So a cheap hosting can not be unlimited. I mean unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth. So if you are finding cheap one, then stay away from any unlimited shared hosting . How can a shared hosting can be unlimited? They host lot of site in a single cpu in shared hosting . I thing Apollo hosting can be a good choice.
If you are a newbie and do not know how to choose the best host for you , then you can read some good web hosting articles . Read those carefully. Try grab the way of choosing . And again i say don't be greedy to the unlimited service of a cheap hosting . Don't look at the quantity , look at the quality. If quality is bad then those quantity will not be worth.
RSS - or what is now known as "Really Simple Syndication" - is a file format that is incorporated by Internet users in their websites to allow for 'web syndication', making their web content available in a format that can be universally understood by other people. It is just like syringes. Syringes make it easier input or push the liquid. RSS makes it easier to push the summary to the reader. Sometime send notifications.
In essence, RSS is a 'mini database' that contains headlines and descriptions (a summary or a line or two of the full article) of your web content, including hyperlinks that enable users to link back to the full article of their choice.
RSS websites - that is, websites that contain RSS 'feeds' (articles or postings) - typically have colorful graphics to indicate to users that the specific web content is available through RSS feeds. These graphics are usually depicted by orange rectangles that are usually marked with 'RSS' or 'XML'.
With its increased popularity, RSS is now being adopted and used by more website owners or publishers. Today, numerous resources are now available that aid Internet surfers (and even beginners as well) on how to set up and use RSS.
Setting up RSS feeds and adding them to your website can be a simple process that does not involve a lot of time or any money. Listed below are some simple and basic steps that you might want to follow:
1. Have your web content and/or news in an RSS feed format, such as XML (appropriate and 'ready-made' feeds are also available from other sources).
2. Click the orange graphic - this is the RSS feed icon. Take note of the URL of the RSS feed; this will be displayed in the address bar (for Internet Explorer).
3. Input the feed URL on your RSS feed creation program.
4. Click on the "Generate Feed" button. This will generate the RSS code for your web content.
5. Enter the RSS code in the appropriate place on your own website.
Having created an RSS feed for your website, next comes the task of publishing your web content and news and having them displayed on other sites and headline viewers. This is made possible with the use of RSS readers or aggregators.
RSS readers or news aggregators are used to view particular web contents. RSS readers contain the collection of 'feeds' or RSS files from content providers, and they are generally classified into 3 types:
Desktop RSS readers - also known as standalone desktop application, they generally 'run' in the background and are similar to an e-mail client, collecting the feeds and refreshing items automatically as they are updated.
Web-based aggregators - these are online services that enable users to personalize web pages, refreshing them each time the page is accessed or each time a person logs in to the service.
Plug-in aggregators/readers - these make use of either web browsers or e-mail clients, which allow users to view RSS feeds while inside an existing program.
Having an RSS-enabled website provides Internet users (especially those who are website owners) with the following benefits:
Allows users to generate up-to-date news and postings, as information and content in the RSS readers or aggregators are automatically updated each time the RSS feed is 'refreshed'.
Allows users to have control over the information that they wish to view or receive, as they can remove a feed of their choosing any time they want to.
Aside from these benefits, RSS websites are also useful for people who conduct their business in the Internet, particularly in Internet or Online Marketing. RSS can be an effective marketing tool for your website, especially in the following fields:
E-mail marketing and publishing
Search engine marketing and optimization
Business blogging
Internet advertising
Digital public relations
Branding and e-commerce
In addition, RSS can 'power' your website, providing you with valuable, updated, and relevant resources for site visitors and potential clients - RSS is ideal for websites that contain (and syndicate) a lot of information that has to be changed or updated regularly.
Search engine optimization for the website
Increased traffic for the website - your website can 'harvest' and display information from other sites, driving more traffic to your own website.
A wide selection of 'channels' for content distribution, such as PDA's, cellular phones, voice mails, and email ticklers.
A reliable way to have your web content delivered to Internet users and potential clients - RSS ensures that your site is viewed by the people who are interested in them, without having them blocked and 'cleaned' by ISPs or Spam filters.
These are just some of the advantages that RSS can give your website (and your business). The possibilities are endless, as more and more comes up almost everyday. Do not be left behind - take the advantage of the marketing and publishing power of RSS.
It is the search engines that finally bring your website to the notice of the prospective customers. Hence it is better to know how these search engines actually work and how they present information to the customer initiating a search.
There are basically two types of search engines. The first is by robots called crawlers or spiders.
Search Engines use spiders to index websites. When you submit your website pages to a search engine by completing their required submission page, the search engine spider will index your entire site. A ‘spider’ is an automated program that is run by the search engine system. Spider visits a web site, read the content on the actual site, the site's Meta tags and also follow the links that the site connects. The spider then returns all that information back to a central depository, where the data is indexed. It will visit each link you have on your website and index those sites as well. Some spiders will only index a certain number of pages on your site, so don’t create a site with 500 pages!
The spider will periodically return to the sites to check for any information that has changed. The frequency with which this happens is determined by the moderators of the search engine.
A spider is almost like a book where it contains the table of contents, the actual content and the links and references for all the websites it finds during its search, and it may index up to a million pages a day.
Example:Excite, Lycos, AltaVista and Google.
When you ask a search engine to locate information, it is actually searching through the index which it has created and not actually searching the Web. Different search engines produce different rankings because not every search engine uses the same algorithm to search through the indices.
One of the things that a search engine algorithm scans for is the frequency and location of keywords on a web page, but it can also detect artificial keyword stuffing or spamdexing. Then the algorithms analyze the way that pages link to other pages in the Web. By checking how pages link to each other, an engine can both determine what a page is about, if the keywords of the linked pages are similar to the keywords on the original page.
Just don’t focus on the home page, keywords and titles:
The first step to sales when customers visit your site to see the products they were looking for. Of course, search engine optimization and better rankings can’t keep your customer on your site or make them buy. The customer having visited your site, now ensure that he gets interested in your products or services and stays around. Motivate him to buy the product by providing clear and unambiguous information. Thus if you happen to sell more than one product or service, provide all necessary information about this, may be by keeping the information at a different page. By providing suitable and easily visible links, the customer can navigate to these pages and get the details.
Understanding Your Target Customer:
If you design a website you think will attract clients, but you don’t really know who your customers are and what they want to buy, it is unlikely you make much money. Website business is an extension or replacement for a standard storefront. You can send email to your existing clients and ask them to complete a survey or even while they are browsing on your website. Ask them about their choices. Why do they like your products? Do you discount prices or offer coupons? Are your prices consistently lower than others? Is your shipping price cheaper? Do you respond faster to client questions? Are your product descriptions better? Your return policies and guarantees better than your competitor’s? To know your customer you can check credit card records or ask your customer to complete a simple contact form with name, address, age, gender, etc. when they purchase a product.
Does your website give enough contact information?
When you sell from a website, your customer can buy your products 24 hrs a day and also your customers may be from other states that are thousands of miles away. Always provide contact information, preferably on every page of your website, complete with mailing address, telephone number and an email address that reaches you. People may need to contact you about sales, general information or technical problems on your site. Also have your email forwarded to another email address if you do not check your website mailbox often. When customer wants to buy online provide enough options like credit card, PayPal or other online payment service
Today i was visiting kaushalsheth.com to see some beautiful wordpress themes and looking for a good one. I was just browsing old posts. I found a post title "Best web hosting Guide". He listed few good webhosts there. Really those web hosting companies are good. I have heard good comment about them. He listed those because he was not happy with his host that day. It was down and a good host should never be down. It should always back up its network. All his sites was down and he was unable to work properly. Basically he is a designer but he was angry on his host and was finding a good host. He consulted with his friend and browse through internet and listed few best web hosting companies. You can see that list. He has also wanted suggestion from all his readers. You can also suggest him. Best of luck.
Sometimes my friends and new comers to internet business and web development ask me how to register a domain? So i thought i can write a post on it.
Domain registration is a very easy process. For domain registration you can go to any domain register that is cheap. Like Paylessdomains.com.au, Godaddy.com, Register.com etc. At first you have to choose a name with extensions .com,.net or others. .com is always better and looks nice but there are lot of websites now and all .com and .net good names are taken. So you can choose other extensions.
You choose your name then search it. If it is available then just click "Buy it now" or "Get it now". Then process will start. You will be following few steps like filling forms with name ,address etc and at last the billing. You need credit card or Paypal. If you are register with a local register you can also complete domain registration with cash or bank deposit.

Meta Cafe is a great site that allows you to share video and you get paid for that. They pay you $5 per every 1000 views your video gets. If you've spent any significant time on You Tube or any other video sharing sites, then you already know that 1000 views is easily obtainable. So you can easily receive good payments from Meta cafe.
One of the best perks about Meta Cafe is that they pay you for the non-exclusive rights to your videos, so you can publish a video on their site, and then share that same video on Associated Content, Spymac, You Tube, My Space, or anywhere else you please. The only rules you must abide by to qualify for payment are; your video must be your own original work, it must not be pornographic or contain any other adult material (e.g., excessive profanity, violence, etc.), and it must maintain a rating of 3.0 from the community.
In order to receive your payment you need to reach a minimum payout of $100 which is the equivalent of 20,000 views. However, every video uploaded to Meta Cafe is subject to a rating system. That rating system will play a big part in how many views your video receives. If a video constantly receives 4 and 5 point ratings, it will quickly move to the homepage of the website and get some solid time there. Once your video is on the home page, you can literally sit back and watch the dollars role in. Meta Cafe gets 100,000 unique hits per day, so it's easy to imagine how many times your video will be viewed after one day on the homepage.
Even if your video is a pretty average one that never makes it to the homepage, nothing can stop you from using the embedded code to post that video on your My Space page, post it in bulletins and comments, or even send it to people in emails. Using all of these methods will get you a lot of views fast; especially, if you have a large network of online friends. This week's top earner already earned $1,233! If they can keep that up, this person will be making more than $50,000 a year just for posting videos online.

Yes friends google really gave me a kiss. My blog's page rank has jumped to 4 from zero in just 3 months. I am really happy.
How did i do this?
What are your thinking? I bought links?Or some other secret methods? No0p.I also can't say surely how it happened but i found few causes which have done my job.
Firstly i have submitted my blog in lot of blog directories.Most of them have page rank 3 to 7. So i am getting backlinks from them. Some of them also publish rss. So then i also get a lot of backlinks for recent posts.Accordinig to google webmaster tools i have got total 346 back links.
Secondly i have updated my blog everyday and wrote lot of posts.I have tried to write good content. Specially talking about september, when posted 50 articles. I also linked those with other posts. Don't spam in your blog. You may not write lot of posts but write good and long posts with niche keywords.
Our world is continually changing, and this includes our online world. With advances in technology, we now have what has been termed as Web 2.0. This is essentially technology that is available in what many consider the 'second generation' of the Internet.
Did you know that the second generation of computer users is now online? Many people don't think about it - but they are. Personal computers started appearing in the mid 1990s. Now, approximately twelve years later, those children who grew up with computers are now - well - computing. They use computers a great deal in both their careers and personal lives - more so than the first generation of computer users did. They are the second generation, and it is only fitting that we now have Web 2.0 concepts.
Web 2.0 is indeed a concept. It is not software that you can buy. It is not an updated version of software. It is more of an updated way of doing things on the Internet. Think about how we used computers back in the 1990s. We 'surfed' the web, using web browsers, and we read content. We were able to purchase and download software, which we could use. We could interact with others on a limited basis through instant messengers, email, and online forums. That was pretty much the extent of it.
Today, however, so much has changed. Instead of visiting a web site and reading it, we can actually interact with it. We have been given a voice with blogs. We can let our opinions of web sites be known through the use of social bookmarking. We can interact with people all over the world through social networking sites. We can even have a complete web site up and running in as little as one day, where at one time it took weeks or even months to develop a web site. Things have definitely changed. Welcome to Web 2.0.
While Web 2.0 is not a specific thing, there are specific concepts and specific technology that make up the whole Web 2.0 concept. The main concept of Web 2.0 is interactivity. People simply are not satisfied with simply reading a web page. They want to be able to interact with it. This is why so many web sites today use features that allow visitors to leave comments or to rate content - or even to submit their own content.
Technology that has been employed by the online masses include blogging, social bookmarking, and of course, social networking. Sites that cater to this technology have become extremely popular. Even video has become a big part of Web 2.0 with sites, such as YouTube.com, where anyone with a computer and Internet connection can upload their videos for others to see. We can keep running lists of our favorite sites with social bookmarking, and communicate with others, while expressing ourselves, with social networking sites. We are no longer content to simply 'surf the 'net' in a mindless fashion.
Of course, smart Internet Marketers go where the masses lead them - because they know that where people gather, there is money to be made. Internet Marketers are also taking advantage of social bookmarking, social networking, video sites, blogging, and more.
They realize that the entire Web 2.0 concept, and all of the technology that goes along with it, is not just a passing phase. In fact, if anything, smart marketers are keeping their ears and eyes open for signs of Web 3.0 - when the next generation brings us even further into the technological future.
If you are an online business owner who would also fall into the 'second generation' of computer users, you probably already know how to make use of Web 2.0 technology. However, if you are a first generation computer user, it is vital to the future of your business that you get a grasp on Web 2.0, and understand how this second generation, and the generations to come, will use the Internet.
