VANYWHERE — Turn Time and Skills to Cryptocurrencies That Pays Bills

Image
I hear some people saying they don’t have skills for any job so they tend to stick on what is there even if it is a low-paying job. Stuck on a job which they hate until they retire. I beg to disagree because even a housewife has a skill that she may offer or share with other housewives. Is it really their choice? Or is it only just because opportunity did not present itself to them? Now, what if your skills can earn you a crypto even during traffic hours, even when you are just staying at home, a PWD, or any status you have now, would you be joining a program, a project or a platform? (Remember that cryptocurrencies now are really popular and unlike FIAT or paper money that are affected by inflation, values may increase overtime.) With Vanywhere, time can turn into cryptocurrency. Real people, real skills, real time! Vanywhere is a skill-sharing platform that connects people who are seeking and offering skills via live video, voice & chat Well, ...

Proxied Domains

Two of my domains registered with GoDaddy will expire this month. Since I was not able to fully put them into good use, I am having doubts whether to renew or not. In case I renew and decide later to sell, I can not do it since I have lost my access to the domain proxy details. I have not realized that this will cause me a headache. I really wanted to keep the domains but I don't want to be paying the somewhat-a-little-bit-too-high-price-compared-with others for WHOIS privacy. Unfortunately, I can not cancel since WHOIS protection is separate from the GoDaddy account. This leaves me with 2 options: to let the domains expire or automatically renew. I decided to just let the domains expire. I wish the new owner/s will be able to put them into good use.

Cleaning Blog Posts Day

My almost 3-months training ended last Friday with the next step still undecided. So, I have a free time until I return back to work on Thursday. I checked forum posts to be updated on what is going on to my favorite earning opportunities. They are still there and there are still many people being paid and newcomers enjoying the payments they are now receiving. Then, I decided on spending an hour or 2 reviewing on what has happened to my journey to earning money online before working on my other pending personal projects. I browsed through the hundreds of posts and decided to do some 'cleaning'. Now, I feel more comfortable. Reading through the posts, I realized that I spent so much time time in blogging. But I know there are no regrets since I enjoyed the benefits of being a blogger. There may or may not be a major decision in the next 2 weeks but my online activities including blogging will never be set aside. That would mean putting extra hour and effort on top of eve...

Backup Your Files!

Image
Backup your files! If the contents of your site or your files are your income earners then "Backup Your Files!" is the most important lesson that you need to learn. It is also important to test whether your backup can be restored or not. For webhosting account that uses the cPanel, here is the quickest guide on how to backup your databases and your home directory. I found this method simple, easy to follow and helpful a couple of times already and I hope it will also be helpful to you. 1. Access cPanel account. 2. Find the Backups button under Files group as shown on the top figure. 3. Follow the arrows indicated in the next figure. 4. To restore your backups, browse the file and click the upload.

Dipping My Hands into Reseller Hosting

I started my journey online with a free hosted personal page. When I began to find ways on how to earn money online , I started this blog. Although there were periods when I missed posting, I always come back like now. Aside from my Blogger blogs, I also have free hosted sites at Awardspace .com. What I like about Awardspace before is the absence of ads and the ability to host my own domain name. After the free hosted blog, I started to use shared hosting. My first shared hosting had so much resources that I was not able to use even 10% of what was in the package. Since renewing the hosting will just be wasting money, I tried to find a cheaper hosting instead of renewing. I found a cheaper reseller webhosting account. I know how to register a domain but using customized nameservers and adding cPanel accounts to my account are new experiences. There were times when my sites are down because of some missed settings like yesterday but it was worth the experience when compared with the pri...

Nonpaying Employer

If you are doing business online and have not been that careful or have been careful but still became a victim, then this is just a reminder to be careful. Doing business online means money and when there is a money, there is the tendency of being attracted to the sound of it. What I mean is this. When a person got hold of the money, even if he knows he owe someone and he has to pay it back, there is a possibility that he will delay the payment or never pay back at all. This is a very bad business practice. I should have posted this a long time ago but the webmaster seemed to be professional enough with all the contracts and conditions he set before the work began. Trust always play a big role for online businesses and he seemed to play it very well. Just to share my experience, I am talking about the webmaster/administrator/website owner of Fishers Travel SOS . I worked as Search Agent and another person I know worked as Country Editor for them a year ago and we were able to compl...

Should Forum Moderators Be Paid?

I had worked on understanding another training requirements for several hours and finally submitted it with still gray areas. Before resting for the day, I visited some forums and I saw an ad where one website administrator is looking for moderators and that he is going to pay. I had moderated some forums before, some forum administrators paid me for the service while some opted to just say thank you. So, what should it be? Should forum moderators be paid or not? Basically, forum moderators help the forum become more organized. Forums are not spared from SPAM and even members have to be reminded from time to time the DO's and DONTs of a forum. Without the moderators, a forum administrator will have a hardtime in dealing with all the businesses of the forum, maintaining it 24/7. Unless, of course, forum administration is his full-time job. Popularity is a reward for being a moderator but can it be a reason not to get paid for the service? There was once a forum member who questioned...

How Low Can Your Rate Be?

Checking my emails, I received an offline from someone I've known online. She was asking if I know someone who can write an article for her and she mentioned the rate. If my basis is my previous rates for article writing or blog posting, it is very, very low. If I tell you and you are a blogger, you will surely say "Whaaat?" Considering that her client requires original articles about 100-words each, I honestly told her my thoughts on the subject. It is a personal preference anyway on whether to accept a low rate or earn nothing at all but it is still a very big question '?' mark Considering that content is what had kept the internet alive and what powers most websites, content writing should be given more importance, I think so. There is the similarity between online writers and teachers. Teachers who are are responsible in helping our children become educated and better individuals almost always belong to the lower-bracket of income earners. Very low payment i...

To Learn or To Earn

Lately, posts on my journey to earning money online was scarce. I decided to go full time studying some information technology theories and studying consumes most of my waking hours. A full-day schedule at school and with courseworks and requirements to finish, I am on the satisfactory level. My performance is not at par as when I was younger. It is fun studying, meeting personally young, intelligent and energetic people and get to interact with them but I always get sidetracked when I am already infront of my PC. I missed my earnings, few dollars it may be. I missed the excitement of testing the various opportunities. I missed my everyday online journey. There are times when I am on the road and an inspiration for an article just pop out. Writing an article can also be time consuming especially if you have so much in mind but have I need to ignore since I have a Japanese class at 8AM and I am not yet familiar with the vocabulary for the day or that a final exam is scheduled at the end...
