Singapore Web Hosting Blog

just found a great article Google AdSense Bay Area Forum by Jenstar, moderator of adsense section at Webmasterworld.

it’s absolutely wonderful to know that goolge listens to, and cares about us publishers. sometimes, dealing with giant like google is like looking at a blackbox, don’t know what to do with it. search engine industry (i mean the whole industry, not only google adsense) is changing so fast, yet no comment from google. nothing. i understand that they can’t reveal much as that would open a wide door to spammers. but still, it makes us nervous. what’s hapenning? and what will happen next?

lucky guys in US! i can never imagine receiving such invitation from google, i’m in asia.

jenstar, great article, thanks. and could you please help to pass messages to google next time :-): when will they allow wire transfer to singapore banks? and greenback is way toooo weak now ! lol

if your considering google adsense, do it. it’s a great income source if your running informational site. if your running business or commercial web site, google adsense might not be suitable since it may put competitors ads directly on your own web site.

however, for other information sites where nothing is for sale, adsense is god’s gift, at least, it does not hurt.

before adsense came out, many of those informational sites were purely hobby, money suckers if you need to pay hosting fees, not mentioning the time you spent on it. now they may become money maker. well, it may not make much for you, but you didn’t expect to earn anything from hobby in the first place, did you?

thank you google!

submitted to a few blog directories, but didn’t keep track which directory i’ve submitted to. i just google “blog directory” and submitted to most of them on the first few pages.

here are the ones that replied with confirmation. i’ll list them here one by one when i receive their emails. thank you guys for supporting such a new blog!

we published an article on how to upload files to server on our site. it’s pretty easy to use ftp software actually, just read the article.

however, the free ftp software i mentioned in the article is not available any more. the vendor company has stopped providing the free lite version. they still offer paid version. 30 days trial download is free. but to be honest, paid version is not as easy to use as the free light version. you won’t do all those fancy stuff via ftp software, will you?

luckily, there’re still free ftp software. go to download.com and search for ftp.
