Web hosting has become such a commodity item these days, that there’s really no reason to pay an arm and a leg for it anymore. One rule of thumb I highly recommend you follow though, is to keep fresh backups of your site every day. That way, if things do go south with your web hosting company, then it’s no big deal to be back up and running quickly. On any of my my sites, I can be backup and running on a new server anywhere in the world in about 20 minutes. Web hosting is an imperfect business, and you need to be prepared for the worst.

Nowadays with all the things floating around the internet, viruses are the least of your worries.  Spyware is actually recording what you type and what you look at and sending it to a third party.  Usually it is just for advertising purposes, but sometimes it is for something much more sinister.  Getting rid of it [...]

Ethics are a funny thing when it comes to the internet these days. Specifically, I’m talking about a sub section of the internet known as SEO. SEO stands for search engine optimisation, which means, essentially building a website that is optimized for search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing. There are a whole host of other smaller search engines, but those three make up the major bulk of the market.

When it comes to promoting your site with search engines in mind, there are primarily two things you have to be concerned with. Those two things, are the content of your website, and the number of links point to your site from other sites around the internet. Now, that seems simple, but as the old expression goes “the devil is in the details”. How you create content for your site, and how you get other sites to link to your website can be accomplished in a myriad of ways.

While it’s somewhat less dramatic, it’s been my experience, that most webmasters fall somewhere in the middle. “Grey Hats” if you will. Datadial Hammersmith can help explain the differences.
