Mideast firms vie for dot me (.me) domain
By Abdul Wasey
Almost all the big and medium-size companies, institutions, organisations and group in the Middle Eastern countries have their own websites. And those who don’t have are in the process of getting one.
Most of the firms have either ‘.com’ as their extensions or ‘.qa’, ‘.ae’, representing their respective countries. Some of the companies have both.
The importance of a website in the success of an individual or a business organization is an open secret. The rule is simple: If you don’t have presence in the cyberworld, your reach is extremely limited.
How Presence In The Cyberspace Can Help In Time Of Recession?
Though experts all over the world 24 hours a day and seven days a week, through TVs, radios and Internet, are busy offering tips on how to come out of the current global economic turmoil, there are no signs that it is going to die down in the near future. It is the first time in the Internet age that a recession of this level has affected the world.
But it is also true that the Internet has made the recession more bearable with thousands of blogs showcasing job opportunities, millions of online stores offering second hand and cheaper goods and services and trillions of websites and community forums airing and sharing views on ways to face the current credit crisis.
Thus, in this scenario, having a web presence becomes all the more important not only to keep yourself up-to-date on the current issues, employment offers or better bargains but also to present your views, skills, experience to the cyber community and above all earn some extra cash.
Learn How To Obtain (Get/Register) A Domain Name? Purchase/Buy A Domain Address For Your Website
To obtain a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. Take into consideration that you cannot buy a domain for life. You get it for a period of one to ten years. If you fail to renew the domain name at the end of its term, the registration of the domain will be revoked and the domain name may be acquired by another party.
Buying a domain name is one of the easiest tasks. To purchase a domain name, take the following steps:
1- Refer to the website of an authorized registrar.
2- Use the registrar’s online search function to search to see if your desired domain name is taken.
3- If your domain name is available, you can then proceed to the next step to complete the registration form and pay by credit card.

How Responsive is Your Web Host
There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a company to host your website. One of the most important things is how responsive is your web host. This is critical in nature when you run into problems. You want to be rest assured that your hosting will be available to answer all of your questions and have the ability to solve the problems that you can’t do yourself.
It is a good idea to have a list of questions to ask the hosting site before you make your final choice in a web hosting company. Go straight to the source and ask to speak to a representative that should have the answers you are looking for. Here are some things you may want to consider:
Find Cheap Web Hosting Without Sacrificing Reliability
Everyone today is looking to save money. Believe it or not this can be true when you are trying to Find Cheap Web Hosting Without Sacrificing Reliability. You might ask yourself if it is really possible to find an affordable hosting site that still offers reliable services. The answer is yes.
Typically people think, “you get what you pay for” and that budget sites don’t offer as many features or services as the more expensive web hosting companies. That idea is not so any more. A better philosophy would be to take the approach of why pay more for the same services. There are many “cheap” web hosts that give their customers the same if not better plans than their high-priced competitors while still fulfilling the average website owners needs and budget requirements.
Googles pay per click equals payday
How to use Google adsense and your website to make money at home.
Website owners can enroll in google adsense to enable text, image, and more recently, video advertisements on their websites. These advertisements are administered by Google and generate revenue on either a per-click or per-impression basis.
Basically you need to sign up with the network and paste some code snippets on your website. The network will then serve contextual ads (either text or images) relevant to your website, and you will earn a certain amount of money for every click.
Pay per click (PPC) is an internet advertising model used on websites, in which advertisers pay their host only when their ad is clicked.
How to Have Your Free Website Domain…and Have Your Hypertension Too!!
I must admit I’m a neophyte in the internet world as well as in the ABC’s of the so-called “state-of-the art” website domain. As a matter of fact, I got my Vista laptop only last December as a Christmas gift to me by my eldest daughter who was working in a hospital in England. I had my SmartBro internet connection installed only this January 2009 and I just learned few simple RSS links, searches, and browsers. Since it was my first time in the internet I took pleasure of browsing for some work-at-home jobs, bloggers, article writing opportunities, on-line marketing and other business offers. In this end, I came across with some luring proposal of free membership MLM or affiliate programs wherein I gave way to almost every offer of this kind. Reading some of their fascinating promises of easy huge earnings “without leaving your home” , I was gradually conditioned to believe that this was the best offer so far and I started working on it until I became a member Affiliate. I believe I did follow my lessons I learned from the articles of the so-called affiliate gurus – on how to send links to different websites “to expand my clout”, send invites to friends, and other so-so in the affiliate system. I did work on it for almost two months now and I still notice no changes in my Google Adsense Display Report.

So many elements go into establishing a lucrative website. Of course content is key, as well as the quality of product or services offered to consumers. Keep in mind, however, that your website’s design plays an essential role as well. In an attempt to secure conversions, the site must be well-maintained and designed.

By ridding your site of such imperfections you can help increase your conversion rate.
HOW IMPORTANT IS A DOMAIN NAME
If you are a beginner on your first steps towards building a website I would like to try to help make things a little easier from the start. When I first started my quest to join the web I knew absolutely nothing. From experience I’ve learned each step has an affect on the end result. There are many decisions you will have to make on your way to having a website but your domain name is where it starts. Your domain name is what you are calling the site that you are building. So choosing a domain name is important to your site.
Here are some things that I found needs to be thought out carefully:
1. What is your web site going to be about? Here’s where you need to get as specific with what your goal is for your site. What do you enjoy, if you want to sell a product, then what domain name might make a person think of your product.
