    Domain Name Extensions - Get Them All!

    If there is one thing GoDaddy is very good at, it is upselling. For example, when you buy a dot com domain name, they would also sell you all its variants under the sun: dot org, dot net, dot info, dot biz, dot whatever. I fell into this trap once. When I started to understand SEO, I concluded...

    Do subdomains have their own IP address?

    I like subdomains. I think it's cool to have sites with URLs like mycar.debayo.com or myhouse.debayo.com and something like that. What I don't understand is why Google treats subdomains as separate sites. I mean, if traffic goes up in mycar.debayo.com this does not affect the SEO of...

    Most people go to vacation at this time of the year. I imagine the use of the internet to surge steeply up with all the social media craze going on. Is this understanding correct? If so, I wonder if web hosts have a Christmas vacation.

    What does it take to be a hosting reseller?

    I can see that there are different ways of being a hosting reseller. However I get this impression that a reseller just has to be more marketing-oriented rather than technical oriented. Is this correct? If it is, then I might qualify to be a hosting reseller ^_^

    Shortcut URLs

    Outside of social media, do you use shortcut URLs to refer to any page of your website? I find myself using customized shortcut URLs a lot these days even in ordinary email.

    Facebook vs SEO

    I've been reading a lot about Facebook. Frankly, I've been blown away. Their system makes perfect sense! The "Like," "Comment" and "Share" options are more powerful than they look. Would anyone share his insights on how this might affect all body of knowledge about SEO? I have this feeling that...

    Website Design costs

    How much does it cost to design a standard website these days? I plan to sell stuff onlilne. I'm a blogger by background who uses a lot of free templates. Some well-known bloggers sell their templates for around $100. I don't know if that's a benchmark for website design.

    Why do we pay domain name registrars?

    Sometimes I wonder why we need to pay registrars for the domain name every year. Is there a way that someone can buy a domain for life? What would the price of that be?
