WebmastersRe: Total Cost In Creating A Blog by MakeADifference: 12:00pm On Feb 16, 2017
Not bothering me at all. Do you want it in Europe or US? Where do you intend to receive visitors from? It is better to host close to your target - helps your speed and your ranking.

Online at all times shouldn't be a problem.

Please sorry to bother you but i need a good hosting company that can host my website, the number of visitors won't be much but i want it online @ all times.

Thank God you aren't Nigerian. I was starting to suspect.


Jose213:
For Real dude you wanna now turn this into an arguement?
Am surprised you think visits are visitors........this is soooo hillarious...am laughing righ now.

i repeat visits are not visitors!!

Google is your friend.....do the home work

Talking of vps and D.S?

Cheap vps/D.S is another crap....infact if you told me you were on Unmanaged vps like Digital ocean, i would side with you but $5 managed vps?....come onnnnn!!!

If vps is $5 why are people buying shared hosting for $15?....This hosts you are trynna justyfy can't even hit a 70% uptime...in your next reply...give me 5 reputable hosts offering vps for $5 and i'll check out reviews online to see if those hosts lack 80% of reviews that are negative...name them!!

and oh...lastly...i aint Nigerian...i wonder where google falls in this

Christianity Etc7 Reasons Why I Hate Pastors by MakeADifference(op): 4:05pm On Feb 15, 2017
I hate Pastors because they have many people following them - not fake Facebook or In stage am or Twitter followers. No, real correct human followers. In my case my followers are not really anything worth boasting of.

I hate Pastors because their followers 'drop' something for them. Yes. Not like my own followers that I must post something so they will drop 'likes' for me. No. Pastor's followers drop things. Ego, kudi, cars, suit, fine fine things. My own followers only drop likes and shares.

I hate Pastors because they have fine things. Not like me. They have fine cars, they have jets, they have nice wrist watches etc. And what's their work by the way? Kai.

I hate Pastors because the same English I talk is the same English they talk but people listen to them like crazy. Me? Am still struggling for attention.

I hate Pastors because they have varsities. Nice ones. The best ones. Why now? I hate them because they are not allowing everyone to come free of charge. Even though they have much better facilities than govt universities, I hate them for charging fees.

I hate Pastors because people respect them. Some arent even as handsome as I am yet people thrill for them. I wear better suit and am more fashionable yet I never earn correct respect. Why?

I hate Pastors because they call them Papa. GO. Some aren't as old as me. Even myself that I am commanding microphone and feeding the waves hasn't got anyone calling me bros, talk less Papa.

I hate Pastors because of tithes. People obey and give to church. But they don't obey to give unto others (i.e me). Even when I did MMM, it was when I was to GH that MMM folded up. Kai.

I hate Pastors, I call them Yahoo boys. Yes, because I hate them.

I hate Pastors, and my name is Freeze!
WebmastersRe: How To Host My Expired Domain With Another Company by MakeADifference: 11:21am On Feb 15, 2017
Sorry about it all.

The registrar will automatically park it since the domain was registered with them and it has expired, Since new buyer didn't host anything on it all the while it'll be parked.

If the existing user can still buy even if you win the auction, be careful. Crazy people do allow a domain to get to this point so they can know how much it is worth. One hopes the current owner won't renew once you or somebody bids for it.

To know when a domain is deleting, check the pending delete lists. There are many sites that have these lists. If its .com, 80 days from that 16th i.e the expiry date, the name should be deleted if no one buys it at auction.

So from 77th day you can start checking the pending delete lists.







Kondomatic:
My plan is to bid at the last minute but I am not sure if that's safe.

The name is very dear to me, watching it parked for a whole year was a continuous torture, funny enough, it was the registrar that parked.

The reason I don't want them to know that I am still interested.

@4. How do I get that information?

I learnt that even after I win the bid, I will still have to wait for about two weeks to know if the current owner will still renew. I can only buy it back when the two weeks elapses and the current owner didn't renew.
WebmastersRe: How To Host My Expired Domain With Another Company by MakeADifference: 9:40am On Feb 15, 2017
It is a tough one you put up here. This is my thinking

1. Domain is expired - good

2. It is in auction, I don't have the details of the auction site, or type. Can't say much therefore but since ...

3. No bids - good too.
Keep watching. If the auction has a buy now then maybe you can go for it. Watch the auction closely till the very end. Be careful though, people can see traffic to the auction page and take it as proof of people's interest in the name.

4. If it finally gets on the deletion, you need to know the real day it will be deleting.

You may consider backorder if the name is very dear to you. But don't backorder with a registrar that will grab name and put in auction again if more than one person has backordered it - but it is unlikely except you've got a hot name.

But I will just wish you are lucky and the auction doesn't get bidders, that the name drops and you are able to register it again the night it drops.




Kondomatic:
I lost my domain to squaters last year and have been observing it since then.

The domain expired on the 16th of this month and is currently on auction(no bid yet)

I don't want to bid yet because I read somewhere that the registrar sometimes assign their agents to bid with you.

Back order is a no no because I don't want to give them the slightest hint that I am still interested in the domain

What do you advise?
WebmastersRe: Total Cost In Creating A Blog by MakeADifference: 7:52am On Feb 15, 2017
1. Mr "you want to be smart",

What Is The Difference Between A Hit, A Pageview, And A Visitor?

There are three types of Web site statistics, a hit, a page view or pages and a visitor or visits. Each of these measures something different: Hits – A single file request in the access log of a Web server ...
Read the remaining on Google.

You see visits means visitors, not hits. Learn that for next time.


2. Mr "There is no respectable reseller host in the US". Wow! The home of the Internet? Nigerians are soooooo amazing. Wow!

I see you own Google. But even Google will not say there is no respectable host in US. Because when they started, they started off someone's server center. Same for Dell. Same for Amazon. Same for a million others.

Let me help you to kick yourself more. I have a less than $2 cloud hosted VPS. And that even isn't the cheapest.

When I will get 80, 160GB RAM, read it again RAM servers rented at $80 a month and you are still here claiming $8 shared host in 2017?
Dedicated servers are now $5-7 for some low range but good servers.

If you are still a young person, you need to get back to where you can learn and go learn. If you are an adult, you need to be careful before you speak. Especially online. This isn't the place you can come to thinking you are hiking with local mumus.

I am taking time to respond to you because of people who read this public assertions you make - which are total errors. I don't want them to go around hammering errors as if they know anything.











Jose213:
600 visits!....not even visitors...huh

ok you now wanna play smart just to promote yourself..Good for you!

If those $2 hosts were that powerful,mmmh....wouldn't everyone be running there...and oh one server host 50,000 websites?...Ding!

and my friend 600 visits can come drom 5,7,13 or even 17 visitors....and so a website with a whooping 2000 visitors a day will surely get suspended on that shared hosting...nothing best comes from $2 hosts unless your site gets 10 visitors a day and therefore no over usage of resources...
Theres no respected reseller in the u.s...none....
i have used multiple hosts and am always on the road experimenting and so you telling me a $2 host should be reliable,Boy i just wanna kick myself in the stomach so so hard.
WebmastersRe: How To Host My Expired Domain With Another Company by MakeADifference: 7:24am On Feb 15, 2017
I can direct you to where you can transfer at $5. That said make sure all domains are unlocked, no privacy. Then request AUTH CODES from the godaddy domain control panel. Go to the new registrar - alp, namesilo etc start your transfer. Put authcode, pay them, and in a matter of 5 days, your troubles are over.

Look for a brother with gtbank card. Put the money in their account, bring them to your room, let them enter their card details by themselves.
Make sure you delete the details from your account once done.

Not best asking you to do that, but I pity your clients who are likely going to lose their sites if you don't act fast.

WebmastersRe: How To Host My Expired Domain With Another Company by MakeADifference: 7:17am On Feb 15, 2017
To everyone who is in this dilemma

1. The rules are different per registrar
2. Go to Internic site to have the MOST correct status of your domain name
3. If your domain is expired, there is a grace period of about 35 days in which you can still transfer. BUT some registrars are strong headed.
4. If it is expired, within grace period, not locked, not having active WHOIS privacy and it is a standard host, you can transfer it elsewhere.
5. Backorders are not the right or best way to go about it.
6. If you can't get to your hosts or registrar, see if you can find out their parent registrar from the whois details of the domain. Call them. They can have the thing sorted for you.
7. There is a body governing domain ownership for each TLD. As long as your name/email is associated with that domain name, your host/registrar isn't the king. Contact TLD managers and report the issue.

I transfer expired domains regularly. Still going to do some at gd, name, and namesilo. But better to do it when it hasn't expired for your own peace.
WebmastersRe: Total Cost In Creating A Blog by MakeADifference: 7:01am On Feb 15, 2017
If you don't know, ask and you will be told. If your knowledge of $2 hosts is crappy host, that's your own world.

As a bit of a lecture, I have a site of a $1 - yes $1/m host and it currently has 309,000+ posts and does 600+ hits daily. It is as fast as no-pause when you click. It has never been down once in years. It is a 36 months contract.

Next time say "to the best of my knowledge a $2 host is crappy".

By the way one of the most respected names in the North America hosting industry does a less than $2 RESELLER. Ask and you will be guided.

PoliticsNigerians And Nonsense - Trump Called Buhari And We Throw A Party! by MakeADifference(op): 6:19am On Feb 14, 2017
Some things that makes irresponsibility a culture in Nigeria.

How does Trump calling Buhari become a matter of importance to 180million people? Why will Buhari need to sit up when he sees Nigerians are thrilled by him receiving a 5 mins call?

Why does he need to care about the hunger epidemic or massacres when Nigerians go agog when EFCC "catch thief"?

People are dying and being killed like bush meat, employment is still there, hunger is still there, economic attack isn't gone yet, but no, we have time to focus on total irrelevancies rather than critically engage the govt.

Everyday it is wailers vs zombies vs afonja vs afonja muslims vs iPod vs ipob ...

And while you are at it insulting one another, the thieves at the top are eating up the destinies of generations unborn.

Nothing less than 5 billion Naira will be embezzled across Nigeria today.

There is no two ways to say this, I just discovered folly is the greatest problem Nigerians are faced with.
