Reliable Hosting!

Most of you already know that I had problems with my web hosting services in the past. My sites would always go down for hours at a time. One time my sites went out for two days. I would send email after email and never got a response. As you can imagine this was very frustrating. And the thing that made me the maddest was I felt trapped. Because feeling trapped meant that I was going to need to start all over again. And I was also afraid of losing some of my site information. But I’m here to tell you not to be afraid and make the move if your hosting provider is failing you. The move wasn’t that bad at all, matter of fact it was pretty easy. So I did a little work and found a hosting provider where you can get reliable web hosting. The web hosting company I came across tonight can meet all your business needs. This web hosting site also offers some of the best ecommerce web hosting I’ve come across. And on top of providing all their great services, you can really depend on them. So don’t be affraid, do your research, and make the right choice.

Save On Oil Changes!

I can across an article stating that we change our oil in our cars more frequently than we should.  The misconception for years was that you needed to change your engine oil every 3000 miles.  But did you know that with the better oils we have today that most auto manufacturers now recommend changing your oil about every 5,000 to 7,000 under normal driving conditions.  The only time I change my oil is when the car tells me to.  I’m not kidding; both of my cars have a computerized system that alerts me when it’s time.  And I will say this; the car has always been right on.  Check your car’s manual to see when your oil changes are due.  Think how much the price of oil would be if we change our oil when it really needed to be done.

Paying More For Internet!

Not to long ago a test was done by Time Warner Cable Inc., which went very well, according to them. The test was charging more to their customers that went over their limit of data traffic. This test was done in one market to make sure their system can charge the right rate and monitor customer usage. I was reading that if you where a customer paying $30 a month you had 5 gigabytes of transfer data. And if you went over that limit you would be charge $1 for every gigabyte over the 5. If you ask me the 5 gigabyte limit is way to low. I would burn through that amount in the first week. I would consider switching to a new ISP if this comes to my area. Time Warner Cable is taking advantage of hard working people, this is wrong. Since they think everything went so well they have choose to role this out to 4 more major U.S. markets. And if your wondering if other ISP are doing the same thing, that would be a yes. But no where’s near the lows of transfer data that Time Warner Cable is giving. The other ISP’s are offering limits starting at 60 gigabyte all the way up to 250 gigabytes. So you can see why I think Time Warner Cable is taken advantage of people. If they try this with me I will leave them and switch to DLS or find another Cable provider. However, with all that being said, not all ISP’s are going to be doing this, so this just might keep the other ISP’s in check.

Cost Of Flooding!

These storms and flooding across the eastern part of the United States this month has turned a lot of people’s live’s upside down. From my understanding, there has been a few people already killed, many without power, and many hurt. I read that the estimated damage of these storms and floods will cost well into the millions. A few of these states are still recovering from bad snow storms. Not only does the flooding affects the people of these states it affects all of us. Our food costs will be going up because of damage crops and delays in planting crops. We can only hope that the rains subside to reduce flooding. For some it’s to late, waters in some areas of the northeast is 20 feet over flood walls. Hopefully it will stop soon!
