I agree with Rank. Even if you don’t want a blog you can find WordPress templates that look like magazine style new sites. I’m not a big fan of Godaddy or 1and1 and moved most of my domains away from them long ago. For web hosting I use Hostgator.

I would recommend some research into Drupal and WordPress and see if one of those two would work for your needs. There are even membership plugins for wordpress that allow you to charge a monthly fee for entry to the site or parts of the site.

It’s really fairly easy to setup a good looking site for very little money. After that you can move toward search engine optimization which can also be done cheaply once you’ve learned the ropes.

Wow, I can’t believe people still fall for these things. SK may well have rented a place in that building before. That is because the scammers almost always use photos from previous or even existing legitimate ads or find pictures on the net. My girlfriend was looking for a place to rent a few months ago and it was difficult to even find a legitimate ad amongst all the scam ads. In fact one of the places that was legitimately for rent also had three different scam ads listed for it at the same time. The “owner” was always out of town and the keys would be mailed after the deposit was sent. o_0.

My rule is:

EVERYTHING IS A SCAM

until proven otherwise. EVERYTHING!
Start from there and you’ll save yourself some money and hardship.

There are quite a few places to register your domain. I use Fabulous and Domainsite as my primary domain registrars. They are reliable and have good security which is a must these days. Anything over $10 a year per domain and your probably paying too much.

That, of course, doesn’t include hosting a website of any kind. I use Hostgator for my site hosting. They run about $60 a year for “unlimited” sites meaning you can host 2, 3, 10, or 30 sites with them all for $60.

You can have your domain and website hosted at different places.

Why are there always these endless relativistic arguments? Because some “bankster” is making $3 million a year and doing nothing for it or running their company into the ground I’m supposed to accept any pilfering, extortion or corruption occurring below that amount?

Since BP makes $10 billion a year I shouldn’t even question a mayor of a small town pilfering it’s residents for $800k a year? Well, there are roughly 30,000 incorporated cities and towns in the US. If, on average, the pilfering is around $100k a year per city then that’s $3 billion a year. In the larger cities it’s probably far above that. A $1 million a year pilfering equals $30 billion. Probably more than all the oil companies combined have allegedly ripped us off.

I read the comments about the focus of the media on the top pensioners as well as the justifications for some of the pensions and I can understand some of them. However, the relativistic arguments cause me to quit reading as all credibility is lost. It’s like a murderer going in to court and arguing that “Ted Bundy killed 35 people so why the heck are you punishing me for only killing 2 people?”

Pilfering the taxpayer at any level pisses me off. In fact, I think it starts at the lower levels and works it’s way up to the top. Those exploiting the system for small amounts as rookies will probably become professional big $ exploiters in due time.
