cyberteam: dont know but i am

Selling google adsense account 3$ money on it and 1000+ Page impression in 4$ liberty reserve
You must have misunderstood the question asked by webplay, as buying an adsense account was not his intention.

WebmastersRe: Can I Get A Guide How To Download Or Where To Download Drupal 7 Bible by hostingnaija: 7:02am On Sep 07, 2012
If you do not want to buy the book (which is not free and costs ~USD30 for a digital edition at Amazon and i would highly suggest you really buy the book and use the free version you will find only to evaluate it), why does torrent not work for you?
WebmastersRe: How Can One Change Or Alter IP Address? by hostingnaija: 2:08pm On Sep 06, 2012
Hi again, if you are still looking into options, i would suggest you review this post by lifehacker regarding the benefits and usage of a VPN: http://lifehacker.com/5940565/why-you-should-start-using-a-vpn-and-how-to-choose-the-best-one-for-your-needs
WebmastersRe: Prestashop/zencart/open Cart by hostingnaija: 2:26pm On Sep 05, 2012
If you don't plan on building something rather complex, i would really suggest giving the WooCommerce Plugin for Wordpress a try: http://www.woothemes.com/woocommerce/. It really gives you a working shop with many useful features (discounts, shipping options, filtering etc.). For a theme, there is a number of free themes available for WooCommerce, choose from here: http://www.woothemes.com/themes/woocommerce-themes/
WebmastersRe: How To Launch A Website Designed With Joomla by hostingnaija: 2:18pm On Sep 05, 2012
Hello! First of all, it's a good thing you know you need a domain name and a hosting account to get your joomla site online, it makes the things easier. Now, do you know the basics of how to get ANY website online (how to use FTP or how to configure access to your MySQL database etc.)? If no, tell us and we will provide some beginner guidance for this things. If yes, you just need a guide on how to install Joomla: http://downloads.joomlacode.org/docmanfileversion/1/7/4/17471/1.5_Installation_Manual_version_0.5.pdf - start from page 10 and tell us what does not work for you.

Good luck!
WebmastersRe: I Need Help On Email Script by hostingnaija: 1:41pm On Sep 04, 2012
I am not an expert in the way Gmail treats HTML Emails, but consider using a boilerplate for creating valid messages, like http://htmlemailboilerplate.com/. Good luck and let us know if when you get it fixed!

WebmastersRe: Prestashop/zencart/open Cart by hostingnaija: 12:20pm On Sep 04, 2012
shorxynla: Fellow webmasters. I want to embark on an ecommerce site but am confused on which of the ecommerce software to use. Your contribution is highly welcome
Hi! To receive better answers, please provide us with some additional details on your needs for a shopping cart software. Mention whether you need a single-store of multi-store functionality, the amount of products you are planning to sell, the payment solutions you need to be integrated, shipping and discount options, how much input from community do you expect (in terms of support), do you plan to use an already available theme or building your own, etc.

I would also consider Drupal+Drupal Marketplace/Ubercart, Magento or even Woothemes, it just depends on your needs. Tell us them and we will try to help.

Good luck!
WebmastersRe: We Are Launching The Most Reliable Unlimited Hosting For $1/month! by hostingnaija(op): 10:09am On Sep 04, 2012

WebmastersRe: How Can One Change Or Alter IP Address? by hostingnaija: 7:33pm On Sep 03, 2012
You might want to consider using a VPN service like HideMyAss (as ikeobidi mentioned) or StrongVPN, refer to this article to a comparison of VPN providers based on how much anonymity they provide from TorrentFreak: http://torrentfreak.com/which-vpn-providers-really-take-anonymity-seriously-111007/ I have to mention that only a non-free VPN provider can offer you some anonymity.
WebmastersRe: Please I Need A Honest Review Of My Blog by hostingnaija: 6:12pm On Sep 03, 2012
Follow one of this guides to do that (whichever seems easier to you): http://elektroelch.net/remove-by-author-post-section-from-genesis-themes/ or http://www.studiopress.com/tutorials/customize-post-info. Good luck!

EDIT: guides provided based on the assumption you are using a Genesis Framework theme for your blog.
WebmastersRe: Please I Need A Honest Review Of My Blog by hostingnaija: 5:10am On Sep 03, 2012
Actually, it looks very professional, especially considering other websites operating in the same field. The one thing i would change is to remove the “By Deco_SLiM” author line under every post, since you are the only one posting here and it will reduce clutter. If you do not know how to do it, as here and i see what i can do.
Also, the sidebar looks a bit “ overwhelmed” with the amount of blocks, i would consider to remove some of them (like Archive) and rearrange the rest.

Anyway, good luck with your blog as it looks promising!
WebmastersRe: Wordpress Help Needed Urgently by hostingnaija:
Honestly, you won't receive any valuable response with the very few details you provided. Please, help us by telling us exactly what is your problem (you don't know how to do it; you don't see the administration page; you receive an error etc.), maybe even provide us with some screenshots. Please, do this and we will try our best to help you.
WebmastersRe: Help Needed. Joomla Or Wordpress by hostingnaija: 10:03pm On Sep 02, 2012
ace1: Thanks, can you pls tell which components I can use and where I can get Games to integrate?
You can source the flash games for the Mochimedia Publisher Center: http://www.mochimedia.com/publishers/index.html It is free, has a lot of games to choose from and you earn a percentage from the ad revenue the games generate (we have no affiliation to it, just to mention).
If you want exclusive games, i would suggest for you to look into flash games sponsoring, http://fgl.com is a marketplace for flash games.
WebmastersRe: Jobgeni Script Aggregator $150 Had Any1 Used It? by hostingnaija: 9:51pm On Sep 02, 2012
I have never used JobGeni personally and would suggest you to evaluate other opportunities before buying it. For example, you can obtain the same functionality with Drupal and a bit tweaking - just install the Recruiter distribution (http://epiqo.com/en/recruiter) and have a Job site where people could also add their own jobs besides aggregated content.

And if you need hosting for that, we are always ready to help!
WebmastersRe: How Can I Create A Form by hostingnaija: 9:31pm On Sep 02, 2012
Hello! If you are not to deep into programming and feel like you don't know where to start, i would suggest you to use a online service to create a form. It will be probably enough for your means and it is much easier then learning how to program just to make a form.
You will be able to concentrate on other things and the form will be fully functional and looking professional.

Now, there are several web services you can use to create a form:
1. Google Forms (https://www.google.com/google-d-s/forms/). It is completely free and Google also offers a very nice Help: https://support.google.com/docs/bin/topic.py?hl=en&topic=1360904 Forms can be embedded into your website.
2. jotForm (http://www.jotform.com/). It is very easy to use and even provides video tutorials and a good help section (http://www.jotform.com/help/), but you can only receive 100 submissions per months by using their free plan.
3. Wufoo (http://wufoo.com). This one has been probably the earliest service to provide online form building functionality. It is easy and has a free plan, forms can be embedded.
4. Zoho Form Builder (http://www.zoho.com/creator/online-form-builder/). It is free and you create and manage unlimited forms.
5. If you are looking to build a mailing list, i would suggest you to take a look at Mailchimp (http://mailchimp.com). It is THE Email Marketing and Newsletter Manager and it also provides basic functionality to create a form for Email address collection. And it's free plan is awesome.

Now, take a look at the list above and see if anything fits you.

Hope this helps and good luck!
