HOW TO: Turn Off/Disable Sound in Firefox for Windows 7

HOW TO: Turn Off/Disable Sound in Firefox for Windows 7

February 4, 2011 in Technology by admin

Like most people, I like listening to music while surfing the net but unfortunately some bloggers are kind enough to share their favourite song which sometimes almost give me a heart attack. I bet if you love reading blogs like me, you certainly know what I am talking about here.

I finally found a way to do this accidentally after spending hours looking for the solution on the net. Surprisingly, not many information/tips available to solve this problem and I have to admit, I was on the verge of giving up. Nonetheless, here’s how to do it: -

Why Do You Need to Learn SEO?

Why Do You Need to Learn SEO?

January 12, 2011 in Search Engine Optimization by admin

Search Engine Optimization also known as SEO among Internet marketer around the world is a common practice to gain quality traffic from the search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, MSN and many more. The better your website being ‘optimized’, the higher your website will be ranked on search engines which also mean that your website will be highly visible to the people who search the keyword.

SEO Optimized -> Highly Visible -> More Visitors

In simple words, more visitors equal to more money!

The reason why people are so crazy about SEO is because it generate free traffic. Instead of paying Google hundreds or even thousands of dollars per month on paid advertisement, you will be making money without having to spend money. How awesome is that?

Local Web Hosting vs U.S-Based Web Hosting

Local Web Hosting vs U.S-Based Web Hosting

in Hosting by admin

For some people, choosing a hosting company is a big dilemma because there are many things that need to be considered. Well, I’m one of those people too. It’s not just about the cost, reputation, support, quality of service, etc but also you need to know whether it is the best solution for your business.

I used to think that all hosting companies are the same but the more I looked into it, the more differences that I found. One of my major concerns when it comes to choosing the right hosting service is whether it has any effect on my traffic. Some experts claim that your website will be ranked better on Google depending on where you hosted your website. If let’s say your hosting company is in Helsinki, your website will be ranked better in Google Finland.

When I started my online business, I had no idea whatsoever about this. So, I bought a local hosting package for my first website. Few months gone by, I started to notice that most of my traffic only coming from my country although I was actually targeting the U.S market.

Facebook Shutdown on 15 March 2011 and The Social Network is The Best Picture of 2010

Facebook Shutdown on 15 March 2011 and The Social Network is The Best Picture of 2010

Have you heard about Facebook shutting down on 15 March 2011? Yes, no more Wall, Pages, Farmville, Group, Chat, etc. We are doomed!

Relax guys, it’s just a hoax. Apparently some idiots are spreading the rumour about Mark Zuckerberg going to shut down the site which does not make any sense at all considering that the company’s current evaluation at $50 billion. I bet Google is more than happy to pay that amount if Mark decided to put it up for sale.

Plus, the company just nets $500 million investment from Goldman Sachs and the Russia-based Digital Sky Technologies. Why would they invest in a company that is going down in less than 4 months?

HOW TO: Watch Your Favourite Sport Online For Free (Football, NBA, NHL, MLB, Tennis, etc)

HOW TO: Watch Your Favourite Sport Online For Free (Football, NBA, NHL, MLB, Tennis, etc)

January 8, 2011 in Reviews by admin

If you are a sport junkie like me, you probably wondering how you can watch your favourite team play if the match is not broadcast live on TV. I was in the same situation as you are right now few years back. First, I didn’t have an Astro during my college years. Second, even if I do have it right now, they don’t show all the games that I want to watch especially NBA.

I mean what’s the point of me paying the subscription if I only able to watch football and those replay games. I feel like being rip-off here. Even worst, I can’t watch Channel 817 due to bad reception. I called Astro service centre asking them how to solve the problem only to find out that I have to pay RM50.00 to fix it. It’s not even my fault!

Well enough about me, let’s talk about how you can watch your favourite player or team playing easily from you computer: -

HostGator Cut-Throat Domain Pricing

HostGator Cut-Throat Domain Pricing

December 30, 2010 in Domain by admin

If you followed this blog for quite some time, by now you should know that I’m an admirer of Hostgator service. Unfortunately, it only applies for their hosting services, not so much for their domain. Silly enough, I bought one a year ago when I had no idea that I don’t have to buy a domain in order to use the hosting service there.

The worst of all, I don’t even remember how much I paid for it until I saw the renewal bill earlier this week. It was a year ago and I couldn’t find the receipt anymore. Here’s the price list for a normal TLD domain: -

Remember my last post about Unifi? Well this morning, I’ve decided to take my own initiative by calling them like I did for TMNet Streamyx few years back. I desperately need Unifi at the moment for my online business and 1MB Streamyx package is not good enough for me.

It’s funny how TMNet conduct their business. It’s like they’re saying “we don’t go to customer, you come to us!”

How to Download without Using Torrent? Hotfile vs Rapidshare

How to Download without Using Torrent? Hotfile vs Rapidshare

December 24, 2010 in Download by admin

Ever since TMNet so “kindly” to put a limit or mostly known as throttle on torrent, lots of people have been asking me on how to download their favourite TV shows, movies, anime, MP3, software, games, etc which led me to write this post.

I consider myself a heavy Internet user because spend almost 12 – 16 hours per day on average surfing the Internet. And of course, I don’t have the luxury like others who can sit in front of the TV to watch their favourite TV shows. So, I prefer to download them and watch whenever I have the time to do so. Plus, in most cases, you can watch any show faster via Internet than waiting for the release on TV. How cool is that?

Want to make quick bucks? Go get yourself a domain that has Brian Moynihan keyword in it. If you have no idea who is this Brian Moynihan guy, he is the CEO of Bank of America and apparently he and the other senior executives could be the next target of Wikileaks.

Any domain with negative or abusive keywords like “BrianMoynihanSucks.com” and “BrianMoynihanBlows.com” are already gone and according to report, hundreds of domains were registered on December 17 alone through intermediary to ensure that they will not be use by others to “smear” the image of the executives who work there.
