This is one of the most ridiculous things I've heard online this year. The company in question here seem to be implying that Extreme Tracker is illegal because it uses cookies. The resources it links to struggle to imply that use of cookies is tantamount to hacking and invasion of privacy...

Yeah, I received your private message, and replied to it that same day. See the grey box in the top right corner of this window, where it says "Welcome, skorpioz"? There's a link below that where you read your received private messages - that's where you'll find my reply with my email address...

Ah, I actually do that one too... but then I tell talk myself into how great and valuable they are, and waste even more money on keeping them because I can't bring myself to let them expire. I still have the same ten domains for sale that brought me to this very forum in the first place...

Me? Click on my name to the left of the post, there are many options. You can email me via the site, PM me, click the link in my sig to find a contact email address on one of my websites, or simply reply to any topic of mine on this forum (I have email notifications on all threads I've...

Thanks Ian, anybody else? So far it seems to be a resounding vote for the straight system generated 404 error page being the worst you can see in place of a website, but I wouldn't mind a few more votes if anybody else has an opinion on the matter? Thanks!

Ahh, my bad... I misinterpreted your answer to mean that the secret to your success were the forums, and that Eric should use them to achieve that same success. {shrugs} My brain bluescreens sometimes, don't mind me. =P

Hey guys, tell me, when it comes to your online business, what are some of your little eccentricities or strange routines/habits/methods/perspectives you have? One of my unexplainable little quirks is that I can't stand buying from companies with ridiculous names. Of course, what's ridiculous...

Man, you're all either very committed and dedicated to your long-term plans, or clinically insane. I'd sell everything I have - every website I run, every piece of computer hardware I own, every piece of furniture, my clothes, my pets, and my grandmother for $50,000USD!! And I tell you what...

Ian, apologies if this is a pseudo-thread hijack, but I was just wondering if you could elaborate on this a little? The secret of your success on eBay is the community forums - how so, in what way? How do the forums help you with your eBay sales? I only recently found out that eBay even HAD...

Could I get some feedback here on what people think looks the worst?

I have a dilemma. One of my sites is a very laid back, no holds barred, rather personal "blog" website. It contains a lot of cursing, the occasional low-grade pornographic image, and general discussion topics not suitable for minors or the sensitive/easily offended. Essentially, it's where I...

Oh, you were actually one of the companies they did this to? Man, no wonder you're not happy about it! What steps have you taken to remedy the situation? I can't think what one could do in a situation like this, if they're refusing to fix it. Obviously it's just a deliberate broken link, but...

On the contrary Ian, as I was saying above, I registered my business, Fifth Dimension Computing, in 1998, but I didn't register my primary domain name, www.fifthdimensioncomputing.com, until 2000. I was, however, still in business prior to that date. It's possibly that they were trading under...

Personally, for PPC traffic, I've always predominantly used GoClick, although I also have accounts with Kanoodle, and Enhance Interactive (formerly Ah-Ha.com), but I haven't used those two extensively enough to give any kind of opinion on their quality. And hence, having only really used GoClick...

Good work soldier! Keep up this kind of efficiency, and you'll make Administrator in no time! =)

An offline web hosting business? {chuckles} Now I've heard everything... =D Although, in all fairness, I've been in business since 1998, but you won't find any records of my company online prior to 2000 - because when I first started running my own business, I was doing hardware tech support...

Mmm, yummy chewy tasty gooey SPAM!! {is craving moderator priveledges to can the spammer!} Get 'im Ian!

Insofar as the demand outweighs the supply of topically appropriate information, I shall inasmuch as I am able within the constraints of my knowledge, relinquish said knowledge in the form of aforementioned topically appropriate information, for any and all threads in which I hold a thread...

Aww, boo! That logo creams over all of the others, Ian! =) Kere, how would it look if you laid the text over the design? Would it be unreadable? If not, that'd be a good way to shrink it down without just squishing it... Me, I'd take it as is, but unfortunately I don't have "Administrator"...

Heh yeah, I know how that can be! =) But nah, I'm not interested in ready made work, my jobs are usually fairly specific and I always prefer to have things coded from the ground up to avoid mess and hassle, even if it does take a little longer/cost a little more... And as for specifying...
