Dedicated vs. Shared Server

My brother-in-law owns a web hosting business and just last year, he purchased a dedicated server hosting in the US to cater to the growing demands of his clients. Well, I am one of his clients and I was baffled when he sent a mass email informing us that he is going to switch servers and all websites hosted by him will be down for some time. During that time, I didn't understand why he needed to switch from a shared to a dedicated server because for one, it will cost him more money. But after reading the article about dedicated servers over at webhostingrating.com, I now fully understand why he decided to transfer all his database. It's not only beneficial for us, his clients, but it's also an advantage on his part because managing all the accounts under him will be a lot easier and he can offer add-on services which can attract more clients.

Anyway, to all my blogger friends who has been asking me about how and where to get a web hosting plan and how much it will cost, I suggest you check out this website. It contains a wealth of information about web hosting and pretty soon, they will add another feature which will rank the top web hosting companies in the world wide web. I even bookmarked the site for future reference. :)

Which is WHC?

Geez! I didn't know changing web hosts can be this confusing. I have already spent days looking for the best and the most affordable web host there is but still I could not decide. I'm just so glad I found today this comparison website called web hosting chioce dot com which rates web hosting companies according to affordability, reliability, uptime and tech support. As a matter of fact, they have on their site the list of the Best 10 Web Hosting Sites. It's very helpful indeed! They also have a learning center for newbies and a Quick Start Guide and FAQ page to all those who want to set up their own website. I tell ya, it's really worth checking out. :)

Virgo Horoscope for the Day

Posted by Chikai on Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Quickie:
Today is a great day to hang out with a troubled friend -- you can cheer them up.

Extended Forecast:
Today is a great day to hang out with a troubled friend and cheer them up. There has been a lot of drama in their life recently, and you can provide them with the quiet normalcy that they need so badly. Schedule something fun but mellow that the two of you can do together. A movie and a meal, a long hike, or even just some time sitting in front of the TV together will give them the chance to share their thoughts with you. And it will give you the chance to listen with your full attention.

~ Aww.. I feel really guilty about this. :( My friend texted me a while ag inviting me over to her place because she needs someone to talk to. She's brokenhearted by the way. But I wasn't able to give in to her request because I had a family affair to attend to. Now I'm thinking how to make it up to her. I might send a bunch of roses to her office tomorrow to cheer her up. What do you think? :(

ANJA :: SUMMER MEADOW :: WITH LOVE

Helloooo!

Buenas Tardes everyone! How was your Mother's Day celebration? I hope all moms out there had a blast and didn't have to clean up after the party. LOL! Anyway, I would like to apologize for the lack of updates on this blog. I took a break from my freebie hunting for a day because Hubby's aunt organized a little celebration for our dearest Lola Mareng (hubby's grandma). I cooked my special pork giniling and they all loved it! (walay atik! hehe!) We celebrated Mother's Day at LinMarr Apartelle and stayed there the whole day. I will share photos as soon as I get to upload the shots from my phonecam. ;)

Mother's Love

Posted by Chikai on Sunday, May 11, 2008

Happy Mother's Day
Her love is like an island in life's ocean, vast and wide
A peaceful, quiet shelter from the wind, the rain, the tide.
'Tis bound on the north by Hope, by Patience on the West,
by tender Counsel on the South and on the East by Rest.
Above it like a beacon light: Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;
And thro' the changing scenes of life I find a haven there.

~ Thanks MOM for everything and just wait for the engraved gold chain I ordered for you.... :)
