    Hi guys, At which time should you be moving your site(s) from shared hosting to dedicated hosting. There is a big difference in costs involved so I wonder when I should start paying more.

    Staying motivated

    I also have problems keeping motivated sometimes. It is very easy to take a few days off from your business and this could of course lead to big problems later on. It is important to schedule your day thoroughly.

    Lady Attacks Mona Lisa!

    Apparently the reason why this Russian lady "attacked" the Mona Lisa was because she was not granted a residence permit by French authorities so she decided to take it out on poor old Mona Lisa.

    I had a similar problem my visa debit card from my Thai bank. The debit card could not be used for online transactions so Pay Pal did not allow my Visa debit card to be used.

    Withdrawal time

    It always takes 5 working days for me. So for example, if I send money on Monday then I get it next week on Monday. If however I send it on Sunday then I receive my money on Friday.

    Dubai to construct real-time payments system

    This is definitely great news. I have a few friends who operate online travel sites in Dubai and it has been very hard for them to process credit cards online. They had to use more expensive foreign credit card processing companies.

    Differences between offshore destinations

    There are many destinations where you can open an off shore company. But I was wondering if there are any real big differences between them. What should I be looking for when picking a country for an off shore company or bank account?

    Personal account

    The problem with a personal account it that you can only make so many transactions and this is especially the case when buyers use credit cards to fund their transactions so it would not be suitable for me.

    Tired of fees?

    I have actually lost a bit more then that during the last week however all the payment type plans charge similar fees so there isn't much that you can do about it. Don't forget that these companies also need to make money and pay all their costs.

    Affiliates

    I have personally done a lot of affiliate marketing through CJ.com and I think that they are the best company out there. It does however depend on the type of products which you are seeking an affiliate program for.

    Twitter

    I have seen in recent times a number of companies that have their own twitter pages. If it actually helps them improve sales I am not sure though. It seems to me that there are other ways which should be able to help more.

    Anyother websites to drive traffic??

    Some of those sites do deliver traffic but the quality of the visitors tend to be very low. If you have an ecommerce site then you are better off investing some funds in pay per click advertising with Adwords.

    Niches lead to riches?

    I absolutely think you hit the head on the nail spot on. Niche markets and products is the way to go as there is less competition and it is much easier to create a solid business then.
