Whoa! Ever Been Called a Sellout For Monetizing Your Content?: "This video I did on the Genesis Lifestyle theme (affiliate link) has generated a few thousand dollars in pure passive income over the last year. So of course the affiliate commission was motivation for such a video.
However, not every video I create is to promote something. In fact, most of my videos don’t sell anything at all."

Whoa! Ever Been Called a Sellout For Monetizing Your Content?: "Some People Hate Promotion… Even if It’s Subtle & Seldom
I did a video last year showing how to use Artisteer to create your own WordPress theme, and I remember getting an email from an unhappy guy who unsubscribed from my channel.
He felt the only reason I created the video was to promote Artisteer for the commission."

Snapchat has a bright (and long) future - Oct. 25, 2013: "Snapchat is part of a brand new social media trend that is gaining strength. In an increasingly public world, the erasable media trend has become a more attractive option for many social media users who want to keep certain content just between friends and only for a short time."
Erasable is a bit antithetic to many things I might come up with mainly because I always feel as if things are so fleeting, and so rapidly decaying. My belief has been to archive things, preserve them, back them up. Yet the concept of sharing something fleeting obviously has found its followers!

How to earn money with a website, part 1
I have been designing and building websites since about a month before tragedy struck New York City on September 11, 2001. I am somewhat taken aback when ever someone asks me, well how do you make money with a website. The truth is depending on what sort of website you are interested in developing there are specific ways to earn money.
The answer that perhaps most people are not terribly interested in hearing revolves around producing compelling content so that people would actually want to visit your website. This is one very traditional approach yet realistically speaking one should not truly expect millions of dollars overnight using this approach. In addition to writing or creating compelling content, one should also spend some time considering the overall design of their website.
WordPress and Blogger have thousands of ways by using templates and images that one can make their website look both attractive, modern and functional. Creating content is one way, yet it will take some degree of consistent time and effort. It's quite possible that people who lead with this question, about how to make money with a website, might not in truth be particularly interested in devoting the kind of time and sustained effort that would be required to earn money with such a website.
However this brief explanation would not be complete without at least mentioning that the general idea with the website described is that money can be earned by displaying advertisements. Another factor that needs to at least be mentioned, is that compelling content, along with a pleasing design will not really be helpful if the following very important concerns are not addressed. One does the website load relatively quickly? If the amount of time that the website takes to load feels like minutes rather than seconds, well then that is a huge problem.
Also, if people can not remember the name of your website, then this too is also a difficult matter. All of these matters can be addressed with a huge array of virtual products that are available for the new website developer. The technical matters of web-hosting and buying the right domain that relates to your web are not so difficult to learn and to master. Many tools are available some for a low price and some for no cost at all.
Another way to earn money with your website is by selling goods or services. People these days have become used to buying things on the web. They will register for conferences and events buy airline tickets, rent cars, and even hire someone to develop a website for them right over the internet.
There are even websites specifically devoted to people who want to sell their handcrafted objects. You can buy the tools you need be it graphics, logo or professional WordPress themes or premium plug-ins right over the internet. To sell things there are hundreds (if not 1000's) of shopping cart programs, some for free and some that will require a monthly payment. Then there is the matter of how will you get your money? This could be as simply as creating a button to collect money via Pay Pal, or as complex as setting up a merchant account along with a payment gateway.
All this is simply a very basic introduction to answer a very reasonable question, about how to make money with a website. By Stephen C. Sanders exclusively for IpDaily.Biz

How to Speed Up Your WordPress Site | Social Media Examiner: "When new visitors come to your site, the first thing they notice is the load speed and then the design.
Even if you have a fantastic website, if your page doesn’t load fast enough, visitors might leave before they see your website design.
In addition to this, Google strives to deliver the best search results, so they put a great value on website loading speeds."

On quitting: part one: "Although the grind of the traveling was rough, what really drained my life was the work. It was some of the most unfulfilling, pointless, and tedious work I could have ever imagined. And since I had absolutely no interest in much of it, work that should have taken an hour often took me a day.
There were times when I could fake the funk and get into things, but those moments were fleeting. I was in a world where the race for promotions and praise was taken very seriously, and I felt like the only person there who absolutely didn’t care."

RSS Feed Pros and Cons
RSS Feed Pros and Cons: "6. Alternate Communication Channel
RSS provides you with an alternate communication channel for your business. And the more channels you provide, the more opportunities you have to connect with your customers and potential customers.
7. Expands Audience Through Syndication
The very nature of RSS is that it is designed specifically for syndication (i.e. publication by others). And wide-spread syndication can expand a company's reach and strengthen the company brand."

Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence
Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence: "The best part is, this lighter version of cPanel uses less resources than its full-fledged siblings, and DNS itself needs very little horsepower to function properly, so a cheap, budget VPS provider should be able to provide a decent VPS to host cPanel DNSONLY for just a few bucks a month. On my testing server, for instance, cPanel DNSONLY uses less than 2 GB of disk space and under 275 MB of memory."

Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence
Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence: "In plain language, this means that, though it isn’t technically “required”, you should always have at least two DNS servers that are nowhere near each other serving DNS requests for your internet servers. Nothing earth shattering will happen if you don’t do this (and many large-scale low-cost web hosting providers don’t follow the “two separate name servers” rule), but in the event that your name server goes down, no one will be able to find your server or any backup services that may be available because the domain name would no longer resolve."

The Advantages of a Relational Database Over a Flat File | eHow.com
The Advantages of a Relational Database Over a Flat File | eHow.com: "A flat file is a text file that stores a single record per line with each piece of information separated by a comma --- its data structure is self-contained and limited. Relational databases, however, store data in tables that are structured for the needs of the data. Each table is made up of rows and columns, and each column can be designed to hold or restrict a specific type of data. Many tables can be created within a single database"

Advantages & Disadvantages of Flat File Databases | eHow.com: "Also, there are no transactions in a flat file database, so it is limited in what it can actually do as a database entity. So a flat file database is disadvantageous to a network user, who is accessing a multi-access, multi-tasking relational online database which can be viewed from many different aspects.

If a record is too short, some form of field-padding can be used so that the length of the record is the same as the next. This allows for a uniform byte-length from one field to the next.
Configuration files are often stored in XML (Extended Markup Language), which is a flat file database with some quite specific delimiters, such as "greater than" and "less than" (<>) symbols. "
