    Advice for a beginner webmaster

    Installing generally take 5 to 15 minutes not a day. CONFIGURING it might depending on how extensive the software is and how in depth your going with forums' and/or user permission structures and such. Beyond a few threads for rules and such I do not think this is REQUIRED. Better to get...

    Do you want to be apart of the next biggest thing?

    Please do let me know if you'll be looking at instrafacture for getting this project started and going. As I know a few suppliers that could give this a real edge and gets what a streaming service provider is gonna ultimately need (locations, transfer, throughput, DDoS mitigation and so forth)...

    Frustrated with a forum?

    Second that here, I felt at market place forum that staffs were not doing their job as they should to handle higher level issues and general community surrounding it. Despite a small army of people claiming to support me. :(

    Proboards Forum

    It does at the expense as you said being vender locked so whatever they charge/limits you to you are "stuck with it". But I assure you I wouldn't be surprised if a number of forum owners don't even know how to code a line or even have a developer on a retainer/contract. While I am not gonna...

    Advice for a beginner webmaster

    Actually pay up for your website hosting as that is like your "house" to your site. You wouldn't house yourself in a $10k home I am right? So why would you go for that Super Unlimited 99 cents a month or $5/year website hosting plan?

    A must buy household item

    I would argue a air purification system (you don't need a an expensive air purifier, even a box fan assembly like would tackle a downstairs and another for the basement with at least 4 air changes/hour. While your rooms can simply get away with one stuck to the intake side of a box fan instead...

    Should Churches Pay Taxes?

    Agreed if they aren't of non profit nature they should be paying just like Amazon should be (in most cases, Amazon in 2019 actually didn't turn a cent in profit so they were able to legally and ethically spared being taxed).

    An unexpected bill

    If this is regular occurrence you might be able to either switch to manual billing or ask for that. Worst case I would once a month go through all your subscriptions and be like "do I really still use this? If so is it worth this amount per increment?". If not press that cancel button while...

    An unexpected bill

    I second that, if the hosting account/service is up there in quality, service quality, resources and such it can indeed be a good term. To me though, I often don't even consider them since prepayments are often not worth it (your lucky to get 10% off your bill and I would argue for the longest...

    An unexpected bill

    I wish I was kidding but a provider really did billed me 3 cents for that belief time that the 1GB storage was activated for. I mean I paid it off as soon as I got the invoice through email but I was like really? Couldn't you just have it as a balance and bill me if/when the balance hits a...

    Amazon or E-bay?

    While we are on still on the subject, I ordered up my Red Wigglers (150 of them which should be weighing in at roughly 2.4 ounces) yesterday on Amazon. From a vendor who promises them live and they should be sending them out of the door within the hour so hopefully I can get composting in a...

    Ask Me FriendlyPerson!

    You are very welcomed and totally agrees which is partially why I don't even sell "reseller accounts". I only wanna go that route if/when I have access to such resources such as providing those clientele the means to set themselves apart, business resources, included/discounted license(s) and...

    Ask Me FriendlyPerson!

    It's typical for hosts not to since it's a SPAM and abuse magnet as well as for generally attracting people who don't intend to actually renew on a paid basis. Resulting in a dysfunctional business in the end. Thus are why I am not confident of such offerings.

    Ask Me FriendlyPerson!

    It's wildly varies depending on "how serious" you intend to take up with it. A "reseller" provider just literally need the admin and marketing down. While someone with a "unmanaged" VPS/dedi is gonna need sysadmin, security and so forth knowledge to boot. Yes but let's be honest do you want to...

    Ask Me FriendlyPerson!

    Probably the most is about establishing connections and pushing out my website hosting business. Barely getting anywhere with that and ready to lay it on the line about everyone I contacted about that (Demand Side Platforms) as soon as I am done with dealing with one in particular. Since if...

    Backups of your data

    Hecka yes! Trying to do this less than monthly personally and my website hosting instrafacture and my website hosting clients are backed up automatically on the daily at the very least. Website hosting clients and relevant data are trucked away to a VM provider where it and the data are stored...

    Amazon or E-bay?

    I would change this and try for Ebay in the future especially for used parts. For instance you can get really good used SSDs that still have much life into them comparable if not better than similarly priced new ones. It's so good that some hosting providers employ these for their internal...

    Worth spending extra money on

    EXACTLY, service or service related purchases always falls under such. Say you got a Kit Kat from a gas station, okay paying that $1.59 is bull but tipping your pizza driver 20% more while ordering a good menu item pizza? Absolutely!
