Finding a Home It took me a while to seek out the best hosting plan. I ended up just going with my first choice. I am not here to say who the best host is, but I choose some one with very recognizable name, over great amounts of storage at a medium price point. I found everything that I was looking for in their Business package. It took a while to get set up but everything had been smooth sailing from there. Making the Move The Move has been pretty easy since this site (www.Danpereda.com) is the only working site. The other 10 sites were pretty easy to move. I simply logged in to my registrar...

The Web Site Overhaul Project Next – Moving to a new server. I currently own 11 domain names. Out of that only one is actually working right now and the others are future projects or past projects that never finished. I have finally decided that I have to do something with these sites. Many of the sites are incomplete due to lack of knowledge and time to be able to complete what is/was necessary. I have one major project in the pipeline. One that I believe in so much that I am not taking a chance. I have eliminated my time/knowledge constraints by paying/outsourcing...

When is it time to revamp and overhaul your website or sites? These are some of the questions I recently asked myself; What is the purpose for my website(s)? What are my measurable goals for the sites? Is my site fulfilling its purpose and reaching the goals? Is my site up to date in both content and technology? Would a revamp / overhaul improve my the website attaining it’s goals and/or serving it’s purpose? After looking at the answers to these questions I decided that it was time for a change. Here is my Web Site Overhaul Project Bookmark It Hide Sites

Last Month I was testing some Auto Content Generation and Auto Link Generation tools to help drive traffic to some of my sites that are just laying around doing nothing. (You can read the post here.) The test was a failure. My websever wouldn’t allow for some of the tools function and I was putting too much time in and not seeing any results. My time would have been better spent developing real content for the sites and that would have drove real visitors. In the end I ended up just “Parking” the sites with SEDO . They have been there for just a week and have generate 76 hits and 10 cents...

Do Auto Content Generation and Auto Link Exchangers Work? 9-18-07 I am running a test of this new content generation tool over at the site reelspicy.com lets see if it works and appears in google’s ranking under “Fishing”. The site have never really been visited before. I want to see if I get some Hits, Clicks and maybe a Google ranking. This is mainly a test to see what happens. 9-19-07 Ok It has been 24 hours since I put up the site and there has been no real visitors (not a surprise). I have also done a test with Bookmark It Hide Sites

So in an effort to release my frustrations I have been dying Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. I run across a it at Target for 13 bucks so i picked it up ran home and installed it in My new Acer Vista laptop. It installed fine then it started up and my gamer juices were flowing. Then I get an error message and GTA closes. WTF! So I try again, same thing… Ugghhhh I run off to search the message boards and some people claim to have it working on vista. I try their suggestions of running as administrator and in XP mode, but get no where. It has been 3 weeks and I still haven’t got...

By Dan Pereda www.danpereda.com I know you have heard it before, “Linux will never be main stream because of … (Insert reason)”. And all the fan boys will respond in a nice polite manner to explain how much better Linux is or how IF you had learned to use Linux first, Windows would just seem wired stupid and wrong. Well that is just it. Windows is not better than Linux for what it does today. It is better than Linux for what it did 20 years ago. What was that you might ask? Windows took a new technology (Computers) that scared most people and made it easy and user friendly. Why were...

I just bought a new Acer Aspire laptop (5610-2273). I t was on sale at best buy for 599.99. I have been looking to build a small form factor pc that I could travel with. I was planning running Linux and do some PVR work with it. Pricing it out I was gonna end up spending 500 bucks. When I cam across this laptop it fit my needs, was easy and would let we try out Vista. so far I can say I don’t really like vista, the specs on this laptop is the same as my dell laptop running XP and the XP machine seems much better. That is for some other post. I open my new Vista machine and I installed MSN...

I have to post something, but I have been so busy that I have not found the time. What have I been doing since I am not blogging? I have been using my bit little free time to try and learn Ruby on rails, Ajax on rails and some advanced asterisk and some Linux stuff. I am trying to do all this so I can really make my other site PhoneFuse.com do some cool things. I think some of you tech heads will really like what I gonna give you for free. Coming Up I have about 30 drafts of blog posts that I want to finish(I really haven’t started anything but the title). Many of them travel reviews. I...

I currently own 7 domains and they are spread out across different servers and hosting providers. Some sites are for fun and some sites are new business ideas that I am exploring. I have way to many topics I am trying to cover and fun, business and personal ideas are getting posted on the wrong web sites, or is limiting what I can do with the website. I have consolidated my hosting and servers down to two locations. I have a front end hosting provider for all my sites and a separate back end server to handle some complex functions. Below is an outline of my plans for my sites. DanPereda.com...
