Lately…

I’ve had quite a few things going on. Somehow, things all happen at once.

Today I did a little work on my new dedicated server, but I still need to wait for a few domains to transfer over to 1&1, where I’ve decided to keep all the domain registrations. I now own 8 domains, which are

  • momrik.com
  • mtdewvirus.com
  • mtdewvirus.net
  • mtdewvirus.org
  • nickmomrik.com
  • pokerchiptricks.com
  • pokerchiptricks.net
  • pokerchiptricks.org

I hope to have the pokerchiptricks.com site up in the next few weeks, but there really is a lot of work to do. I need to come up with a design, shoot a lot of videos, compress all of those videos, write tutorials, and many other things I have planned.

PokerChipTricks.com

The announcement you’ve all been waiting for…I’ve purchased pokerchiptricks.com! Over the next few weeks I’ll be designing an all new site and moving my poker chip tricks tutorials. I also have quite a few new tricks to add. Big things are planned and I’m pretty excited about it.

Hosting Options

A few days ago I posted about needing dedicated server hosting and ever since I’ve been doing research. There is so much to compare. So many opinions. The decision is overwhelming.

Right now I’m looking at a dedicated server from Server Matrix and paying Fast Server Management to manage the server for me. I’m not comfortable with all of the Unix security and don’t want to become an expert at it anyways. I’ve also thought about getting a managed server from 1&1. 1&1’s prices are unbeatable and Server Matrix looks top notch, but costs more overall.

I’ve looked into VPS and reseller hosting, but neither seem to fit my needs. I need want at least 500-1000 GB of data transfer (more is always better), a few GB of storage space, the ability to host multiple domains, and then all of the other basics of a web host. As I see it, I need a dedicated for the bandwidth and it would be nice to have the added extras. I can always lease out some of the space on the server to people that want to run a small site.

If anyone has any suggestions, definitely let me know!

Dedicated Server Hosting

Does anyone know of a good company to get a dedicated server to host my sites? I have some new projects in the works and shared hosting just won’t cut it anymore. 1&1 has some good pricing on dedicated servers, but I have a free account through them and I hate their Control Panel and the fact that I need they use different usernames for everything. One for FTP, another for MySQL, others for email, etc. I love my current host, Aplus.net, but they won’t do any type of price matching for me, so it looks like I’ll have to make a switch.

I’m not looking for anything super special. I want a good processor, decent HD space, a lot of bandwitdh…pretty much all the basics.

Suggestions?

More Gmail Invites

Yes, I have more Gmail invites. 4 to be exact. I had 6, but gave one to my brother and one to my buddy Case. The first 4 people to comment on this post will get the invites. All you have to do is say how you would up at my site. I don’t care if it was Google, link from another site, etc. Just say how. Nothing too hard. Make sure to leave a valid email address and also your first and last name. Once I see the comment, I’ll send you an email just to make sure the email address is working. After you reply back, I’ll send the invite. I just don’t want to waste the invites when others are still paying for them on Ebay.
