No Need For Cut Throat Tactics

March 29th, 2008
 

Quick update this Saturday. Yes, I know I am not supposed to be working. But I can’t help it. After all, it is such a fantastic deal for a great cause. You probably know by now my pal Alice Seba. She started her whole Internet Marketing Sweetie empire with this one course titled… Internet Marketing Sweetie.

The whole premise about this course really is getting back to basics. Being nice, playing fair and getting ahead at the same time. No matter what you’ve been told, there’s really no need to resort to cut throat tactics to have a successful business. Especially these days… people are savvy, they will sniff you out, blog about it out loud and spread the word about you through the social network grape vines.

Have You Checked Your Disk Space?

February 26th, 2008

Hard driveIn the last two weeks, I was reminded of something that is oh so very easy to overlook. Check your website disk space. Here’s what happened.

First, a client asked for help because the script we developed for her quit working. This is our normal reaction - me included. When a script fails. Something is wrong with the script! But after some quick research, it seems the script quit working because the web hosting account is full.

This is not true of all scripts. But if you have a system that adds data to your database on a regular basis e.g. blog posts, blog comments etc, you’ll fill up your database faster than you think. Especially when you get hit with some major traffic and people start commenting like crazy. Now admittedly it does take a lot of data to fill up even a smallish hosting plan. Depends on what is added to the database
