Hostgator Web Hosting - A Review

I’ve been using Hostgator to host my blog for a little over a year now, and I think it’s finally safe to say they’ve proven to be a reliable shared hosting service, so much that I decided to become one of their affiliates. Although I’ve never received hordes of traffic to see how well it could hold up under heavy load, I’ve never had trouble with my site during…..

I Hate Web Design

I just spent the last few days squashing some of the remaining bugs on my site, and I’m telling ya, these were cyber cockroaches from hell. I stomp one bug, and another one shows up, stomp that one, then another shows up. :wall:

It’s the kind of thing that could suck up whole days of my life if I’m not careful. I see a problem and I think…..

Love Song to Google - Quit Playing Games With My Blog

With all the hoopla over Google’s latest PR update, I decided to dedicate a karaoke song to all those bloggers out there feeling the pain of seeing their PageRank reduced.

Justice is a Solo Operation

I’m often criticized for taking a lone ranger approach to life, and while it’s true that I’ve always been a loner, I’m not against looking for help when I really need it. I knew if I wanted to build a successful blog that I was going to need some kind of support to help me get going, and one of the things that held my site back in particular…..

Rejecting Review Requests: The Pain of Turning Down Mo’ Money

I just turned down $50 worth of review requests for my site from ReviewMe. I must be smoking something, cuz money is money, ain’t that right honey? :shades:

One review request was for a directory I already did a review on, so I’m not sure why they wanted another one, and the last one was for a casino gambling site. :eyeroll: That was really a no-brainer though,…..

Roar of The Tygrrrr

I got contacted by a guy via StumbleUpon, and turns out he’s a conservative blogger with a site called the Tygrrrr Express. Writes pretty good (and funny) blogging dissertations ranging from politics to the NFL from what I could tell, and according to his About page, blogging to him is a “shameless ploy to get what I really want, which is to be sandwiched between two hot…..
