The best way is using a child theme. It's actually very simple to do and the only required file is your stylesheet. Just search "create a child theme wordpress" or something like that and check the Wordpress site for instructions. The reason it's best to do things this way is that if you just...

I always try to secure my sites using the least number of plugins too because less to worry about updating or adding additional potential vulnerabilities. I have tried the most popular ones sine my very first hands free money making site got hacked and ruined because of the hidden links that...

I'd say if you have to choose just one go with Wordpress. Blogspot is fine it will help you in the future if you're comfortable with Wordpress though since it's a good choice for when you get to the point you're hosting your own sites. There is no self hosted Blogspot option.

Try checking the site with YSlow in Firefox. It will give you all the reasons your site load like they do. I would second Hostgator too but check the site over first to see if that the issue. Also, if the site was loading faster before and suddenly got slow like this you may have been hacked...

This is exactly why I now always get an upfront payment for services from all clients. I've never really had much problem getting that either. Even when I was new most people were still ok with it. I will admit that I did do a couple half upfront and half after payments for work I really wanted...

That's basically an article directory. I understand you're planning on writing all the content yourself but same principle still. Rank for lots of different things, across multiple niches and make money from ads. Article directorys also generally rely heavily on the content and large number of...

I'll put in my vote for HostGator too. I've used most of the larger hosting companies and HG has been the best. Their service is very helpful if I ever need them and they do a good enough job that I don't often.

If you mean when you paste the link into your HTML tab and then switching to the Visual tab but aren't seeing the video that doesn't mean you're doing it wrong. It won't show anything but a box where the video will be. Once you publish the page you'll be able to see it on your live site. Also if...

Set up a reseller account for sure. When I originally started working with local businesses I just sent them through an affiliate link for hosting. After a couple years of that I realized that all of those customers were still paying for that same hosting account each month and I only got paid...

Thanks for that. Hillarious.

I could lend a hand with the security part if you like. I use code more so than plugins because there's less things to update (or that could become vulnerable) that way.

VDAY99 is a working code as of just a few minutes ago. Well in the US at least so you'll have to check yourself for if it does elsewhere.

ShadeDream, I think you're only seeing part of the picture here but I've helped get this thread off on a tangent accidently instead of the original topic which was morality in marketing and not how finance works. So I guess it's unfair to talk about this further here. You're welcome to start...

Actually banks borrow the money from you that they use for lending to others. That's why if you have a savings account or CD with them they pay you interest (also why you get charged for taking it out early). They just loan that same money out at a higher rate than whay they pay for it. That's...
