Writing a blog is no more like what people used it before, as a personal diary. It has turned into a pure business! People now used to consider each and every factor if, it could help them in some-way or something. Almost everyone owns a blog these days or at least write some and I am sure some of them even has Network plans to get some more fame and money. Well, there’s nothing bad in earning by doing a small-blogs business. But all are not able to do it properly. Some are able to manage the network, while some aren’t. Some even give up in their blogging journey in six months only.

There could be several reasons for someone to quit the business down, maybe some personal matter, but most of the time the matter is financial one. Newbies start the business without creating a proper plan and finally end up with everything because of money crisis. Today I have been reading a review of an iPhone application at Extreme Trix and felt it should surely be shown up here too (as it may help many) – Powwownow.

About Application

The application is brought to you by Powwownow, a Conference Calls service company, which early used to provide free Web Conference earlier. This app allows user to make free conference calls, without being charged by the Data Plans.

How can it help bloggers?

I am sure! This question must be came in your mind. I think most of bloggers now own an iPhone or an iDevice for sure being a techie. Isn’t it? Using this application anyone can do free conference calls, check their profiles, not only this, but also can manage the details, which you would like to share with missed call users. This application could help bloggers in many cost cuttings as bloggers could now interact with their clients for free, could be able to promote their stuff and much more. Some of its features are:

• The application is free
• Missed call alerts (automatic).
• Free UK Conference calls.
• and much more..

You can download the application from official iTunes store by here.

Just like Web hosting, domain names play an important role in managing Search Engine Optimization and bringing direct traffic to a blog too. If a blogger has a good domain that is small in characters, easy to remember and little catchy, then without doing more efforts one get a good ranking. The thing where every new bloggers does lack is the money. Money is not everything, but yeah it still matters a lot. Most of new bloggers doesn’t have money and they compromise by using free hosting and domain names like co.cc and co.nr, which are not good to use as they have full right to cancel your hosting any time or delete the data from your server moreover, the free domain names doesn’t bring a good traffic and are just free for a limited period of time. One can use free hosting and domain for limited period of time just for checking something like testing the new WordPress 3.0, but can’t use it forever.

Tip: Host WordPress blogs for free!

Last time on Passionate Bloggers I posted everything about hosting and also wrote about some cheap hosting service providers like HostGator and DotEasy. The main reason to write that post was to help new bloggers in choosing right hosting that is cheap and easy to use, but I didn’t write about domains. Even from a long time back I was planning to buy my own custom domain not like to get all my domains sponsored by an advertiser or Budding Bloggers. While searching for a good domain name I came to know that Netfirms are giving all domain just at a price of 1$. Honestly speaking I didn’t know about this domain service and came to know about it from a Facebook update of a blogger friend.

As I told you before too that I don’t buy anything without reviewing so I spent some hours on internet to check their service and read the reviews posted on other sites. I didn’t find anything bad about their services so finally decided to buy the domain. I got my domain (Screamable.com) in just  five minutes and also got 25 MB free hosting space. I liked their service and so thought to share it others too.

This offer can help a lot new bloggers to NOT to compromise in getting a good domain name, now they can easily get a good domain name just at a cheap price of 1$ (as I don’t think 1$ would be tough to afford). Bloggers can use this domain for their BlogSpot blogs too, but I won’t recommend it as it lacks in many features and if we start comparing it with WordPress, then the comparison would never end. If they have money problem, then fine they can use it Blogger and later on upgrade the server according to the domain name you will also getting free 25MB server space, free Webmail Account, Google apps, and Whois privacy. They have around 1.2 million customers worldwide clients so there would be no problem with support.

So newbies please don’t wait as the offer is available only till May end, go now and sign up!

Hosting plays an important role in a blog’s life, most of the new bloggers don’t understand this thing and choose their service provider and hosting type without knowing what their service provider offers and of which type of hosting suits them the best. To them all that matters is money, money and money. They want a cheap service provider, which gives them a lot of options. Why don’t they understand that most of the best things are not ‘Cheap’. Sometime backs I shared tips to choose right Web-hosting service providers and our editor posted a review about HostGator services (both posts helped a lot to our readers, we got a great response from them), but we didn’t give the proper answers to the questions that every blogger does ask (who care about their traffic and all, not those who just choose hosting blindly and cry later-on). Tonight I am going to give all information that a blogger should know before choosing a host.

There are three types of Web-hosting available, and all three depends on which type of site and how much traffic you have. Types of hosting are:

• Shared: In this type of hosting the server is shared by a lot of people and any can use your server resource any time in any possible way without giving any credit. If you have small, static, or newly WordPress powered blogs that doesn’t have a lot of time, then it is OK to start your blogging journey with it.
• Dedicated: A dedicated hosting service, dedicated server, or managed hosting service is a type of Internet hosting in which the client leases an entire server not shared with anyone (from WikiPidea). This type of web hosting is too costly and we wouldn’t suggest you that go for it until you have a lot of traffic because if you don’t, then it is full loss of money.
• VPS: This type of hosting is best for you even if you are not a tech savvy. In this server a physical computer server is divided in multiple servers. If you are expecting a spike in traffic from social media sites, then this one the server which suits you the best.

Tips to choose

• First thing before choosing the right service provider for you is you should know which server suits you the most, depending on the type of the site you have. I have written about all three types of hosting available in above stanzas (read them once more).
• Once you know the type of Web-hosting that suits you the best, next step is to start reading the reviews about them (read not on their sites, but also on others). If possible try to monitor some of their servers for  sometime.
• Last point, but not the least is to check their response. Contact them (about the server) and see how much time do they take.

Service Providers

Well, honestly telling I have seen many servers, but only found two companies worth reviewing.

1. HostGator: Host Gator is one of the 10 largest Web-Hosts in the world, hosting about 2,200,000 domains (with shared cPanel). It gives 99.9% up time and best thing about it is that you can get your money back in 45 days if you don’t like their services.
2. DotEasy: It is popular for its domain registration service and affiliate marketing solutions. You can yourself test its performance by signuping for free web-hosting.

Sign Up for your hosting that suits you the best on HostGator or DotEasy.

So how are going to choose your service provider?
