There is utility that does auto power on and shutdown. Also if you want to schedule automatic shutdown then use commentcamarche.net - chronos shutdown is the best small utility in my opinion. I use it to schedule shutdown. Sometimes i go to sleep while surfing so i schedule shutdown after 3 hrs when i come online after dinner.

No. I don't browse in fullscreen. There are plenty of reasons. Like i want to use some of the programs from system tray. Or access something from start menu etc. That makes me work uncomfortably with full screen. That's why i limit the size of browser. And i don't plan to use it in future. Why ? Simply, it is the matter of comfort. To be frank, i'm not comfortable with the full screen.

By pay per load you mean CPM based ads ? If so then you can't earn by refreshing page. It stores a cookie on your browser also notes down your IP. So you can't earn more than once from that visit per day. Some of the good CPM (Pay per load if that's what you mean) can be found at RightMedia ad manager.

I can understand what you mean. Both are paying in one way or the other. Service for both will remain the same. There is no doubt about that. And xisto is excellent for their service and resoluting problems with hosting etc. So there is no difference between the service they're getting. But his question was about how we're treated as "paid or freehost customer". So that's why we want staff member of xisto to answer this. We can't make up our own assumptions about this,right ?

Thanks for the post serverph. I've test phone of sony z550i. and i'm unsure if some of the features of next version of opera mini will work on it or not. Cause this is very basic multimedia phone. and as some of the features like "touch & keypad" will work on it or not. I've to check it. Still it is not released on sony's official mobile download site. I'll wait till it appears there. I don't wanna break things now. Is password manager secure ?

Very good question. As i paid for my hosting and domains in advanced before Mycents introduced into T17. I think i'm still paid customer. After introduction of mycents, if we used it for billing then i'm sure we're free host customers indirectly. But i don't know how staff recognizes us. I mean we're customer at the end. It's just matter of looking at it if we're paid customer or mycent customer. We better ask opaque for this. +1 to your question,if someone have opaque on MSN/Gtalk then do ask and get answer on this thread please.

There are two packages. Logic basic and logic pro. Logic basic is plan which gives 1gb disk and 10gb bandwidth(again it is upgradable). Logic Pro is 10gb disk and more bandwidth(this is also upgradable). Number of MySQL database on basic plan is limited, you've to upgrade or manually pay for add-on for additional databases. Not sure if it's full feature comparison but both the plans and their features have separate page on Xisto - Web Hosting. Also there is short difference mentioned during your steps of shopping cart. You can check how package differs from one another in shopping cart. You can buy almost any service of xisto domains and Xisto - Web Hosting by using mycents and by new billing system. No specific day or something for deduction. If you purchase something then and only then mycents are deducted. Also, Credit system is terminated. and now that Mycent system is introduced you can get mycent based on quality of your post. and you use it to buy monthly/yearly hosting packages and domains. No, there is no manual exchange of mycent into cash. Xisto billing system takes care of it for you. You can check your cash credit balance on Xisto - Support billing. From there you can confirm that it converts automatically. You're posting here from which you're earning mycent. There are some rules for earning mycent. Like excessive quoting and editing causes reduction of mycents. SPAMming and one liner also doesn't count towards mycent earning. MODS and admins warn for constant spamming. Hope this answers most of your questions.

1. Register at Xisto - Support.com and open ticket. Set priority for ticket as urget. 2. Depending upon the availability of admins/support staff on weekend. Your ticket will be solved. and you'll get answer to your queries. One question to you is are you paying monthly for logic plan ? If so then above procedure from you is necessary. But if you paid already for year then why are you stopping your hosting plan ? You're already got charged for that (if you opted for yearly option). If not opted for yearly plan then this is easy to solve. I'm not completely sure about your situation. So i suggest you to open ticket at Xisto - Support and get it solved instead of asking it on Xisto.

In some cases,yes. Some countries do require you to have online banking on your bank account enabled. Also your credit card verification requires you to enter 4 digit code when you get statement in 2-3 after entering the card number on paypal. It takes time and once done your limits of withdrawal are lifted. Now after verifying you can transfer fund to your bank. For funds to get accepted you need tohave netbanking enabled with your bank. My Netbankng was enabled with one of my HSBC account but my monthly transaction was not higher so they downgraded me. And it gives me trouble by deactivating netbanking. I had to enable netbanking by upgrading my bank account and then proceeded with paypal to accept funds. That was lot of headache. I just wonder what would be the process during 2003-2007 earlier days of paypal.

I tried to explain why some domain don't perform well with search engines. Let me give you a better and short article on blog to read. This article sums up most of the doubt related to WWW. I hope this will clear your doubt. and as far domain name is concerned. You're yet to start it with it. And i ask you to set up exclusive for WWW if you want to rank higher. This setting can be done in CPanel. We'll talk about details later. You're yet to get started with it. Once you get domain name, create thread here. and before installing blog, you've to make 301 redirection setting. But that part is not needed now. And without access to cpanel, i doubt you'll understand it.

Lol, i mean there are some tables in market which gives support while we type on keyboard. and mousepad comes with support. i mean that support not curved surface.

@Tramposch, it must be paining you while typing isn't it ? Flat table often hurts to hand. Anyway, let's get back to topic. Here is OS X emulation of my old desktop. I took this image much earlier i think in 2007, perhaps.

@Thedisturbedone, we'll discuss it in forums suggestion thread or i'll PM you. That will be better. @Nameless_ I guess i tried to answer that. But now you change your question lastly with modification that how site does badly even if it has lot of redirects. So let's get back to the this question which you asked right now. For this let's take help of what we discussed so far. We discussed about domain names taken into consideration for this. Then we also discussed about how search engines look at subdomains and domains with and without www. If these things are cleared to you from google webmaster help and SEOMoz blog then i think it is clear to you now that Site not only performs with content and redirection. It matters for 301 redirects/links from other sites etc.

That was nice tutorial. And you covered the paid software forum part really well in other threads. I think i'll forward people on Xisto when they ask questions related to forum. We're answering those same questions over and over again i think. About my forum, here is the link to Codesynapse forum. Theme is nothing new, just edited default one's. I wanted to use better theme as we discussed earlier on trap. But couldn't find one. As the niche of forum is programming. So it is kinda hard to find god theme for it. I tried one theme "Portal Tan" which was great looking for my niche. But when i installed it, SMFAds and SMFTags and Syntaxhighlighter MODS stopped working. and that was really painful for me not using that theme for these two reasons. I would like to see if i can edit it to use this theme but only if those MODS worked on it. Especially syntax highlighter one. Cause you know, syntaxhighlighter is very important MOD for my Forum. I don't know how to work with custom themes ? If i learned that then i'll put up tutorial so that others can get help with MOD parsing and editing themes.

Even if you don't click google ads on someone's page. Then still google gets money as servie tax and other fees. So they're not in trouble. But point is those who share their knowledge and rely solely on advertisers for keeping their host and domain fees gets less revenue by not getting clicks to their site. Though some may earn from CPM but it hardly pays off monthly as rates are so low. So if you like any site you visit you should click link that interests you . Not necessary to click on every site but just the one you like. Else your click will not be taken into consideration by google adsense algorithm.

As far as my experience here with xisto billing center. I've never got charged for more in renewal. My domain renewal cost was still the same when i purchased the account. Same is the case with hosting. Only thing is the plans when i purchased hosting are non-existent now. Plan a,b,c of computinhost no longer active. They're replaced by logic basic plan which is equivalent to plan c. And there is not price rise in hosting if you see that way. Just old two cheaper plans are removed which were offering 50/100mb disk and 1/5gbgb transfer, that's it. If you're concerned about hosting and domain renewal price hike. Then instead of paying yearly. Pay for domains in advance for 2-3 years. And keep hosting on auto-renewal, see if they charge you high. If you ask me, they won't.

Akira sums up almost every possibility for this. I think it is unfair for transfer for mycent. Besides, it will even hurt the business model of xisto. If this is allowed then people will create multiple account and will log in with groups and will earn mycent and transfer to one account. How xisto is benefiting from it ? Very low. here 's how they earn, as they use CPC based adsense. Their earning is not as rapid as CPM. So such massive account creation and mycent transfer will have lot of hosting accounts and as staff will be busy with billing and hosting issue. Many applications will be pending if people starts to apply to hosting by creating multiple accounts. Another thing to look out is hacking.Most of time our mycent stats is displayed. Though how much earned is not displayed here. But still earning is shown here. So it is like inviting script kids to play here for earning hosting from xisto. I see this as hurting business model of xisto than in any way in their favor. If anyone thinks it helps xisto in terms of revenue i'm interested in the opinion.

I didn't understood this. Is this about psychic phenomena discussion ? I don't know how it popped up into our discussion. Domain hogger ? I didn't get you. What do you mean by that ? And on point of attatching domain name for performance is something like this. Let's take case of .tk and .co .cc. These domains are used by newbies, freehosts and spammers, fake email creators etc. So for commercial interests people don't consider this. And as these type of domains out of reach of commercial interests. So it is obvious that in terms of search engine perspective, they're at lower priority. This lower priority goes into bad performance in terms of SEO. People will stumble upon your site if content is worthy. But advertisers will not accept such domains even if the site is performing fine and search engine already placed such domains on lower priority. So point if why to be newbie forever by choosing such domains at beginning ? You're in the blogging for long term, don't you ?

Lol. I do ask questions. But it depends on places. Sometimes questions here on t17 go unanswered. So you gotta know where to ask which question. ;-)

It is another scam site. Any site which indulges people into downline and multi-level marketing. Then it is scam site. and all the testimonials and stuff is fake. People can create such illusions and duck newbies who want to earn more money. Such sites target frustrated people, jobless people, old people and people who want to get rich quick. They ask them to pay certain amount initially. after getting money from them they ask them to perform tons of steps out of which they know member can hardly complete one or two. and in this case they take it as excuse when member fails and tell them that they didn't perform this and that and got failed. In between, the site which attracts people for such schemes, get rich by catching people into web of "get rich quick" words. Let's see one more view of such sites. Why these sites failed to have a professional look on their site ? Can't they afford it ? i thought they're rich enough to afford professional design. But they do not. Look at the site designs of get-rich quick sites. Even newbie in web design will come up with better professional design if sets goal like that in mind. Dark backgrounds and bucks images, youtube videos is sign of professionalism ? Poor design is one sign of their professional approach towards site. If such scheme works why they failed to have good design ?

You've tutorial on forum activity on t17 ? I would like to read it, if it is here. Also i want to know how you fetched more forum members. I'm very low on members on one of my technology forum. I would like to increase member count. The trouble is when i used alternate theme for my forum some of the MODS on SMF stopped working and as i've no idea of working with customizing mods. It was pain for me to edit theme from start. So i reverted back to default theme, modified for my site. Anyway, i would like to know how to get more members for forums. If you can help in this area.

I'm not sure what you're referring here. if you mean google doesn't index .co.cc and .tk domain. then that is not the case. they prioritize such domains at lower level. and SEO term takes into multiple search engines into account not just google. SEO people even think about bing, yahoo, excite and other search engines. and to give you idea. if your domain is .ca which is Canadian regional domain for example, then regional search engines prefer higher for regional domains. So it is preference of search engines that matter. But you're not supposed to dig this much at earlier level. Stick with content and domain. Try and stay away from .co.cc and .tk type domains to save your work later. I gave you link to Google webmaster help section. This help file gives you idea how google views your site and how you can improve your site. Also SEOMoz is one of the top resource in SEO industry. Their advice is not only helps but rocks you can say. Lot of information is scattered on SEOMoz and Aaron wall's SEOBook site. So if you get some free time out of blogging then do read more SEO articles. It helps. But make sure you read reputed blogs. Here is hint, you can mix "psychic" name with some technology name try and restrict your domain to 8-10 letters come up with something creative. Check this domain lookup site to find out if the domain is already taken or not. If take then try regional domains like .us, .ca, or .uk etc.

I think you didn't get one thing. There is difference between regional, commercial and top level domains. You're free to use regional and commercial domains. Google won't bite you or anyone gonna hurt your site for SEO. But domains like .tk, .co.cc and smart dots, cjb.cc type of domains definitely hurt. No matter how good content is people rarely find sites with those domains on search engines. .eu is regional domain if i'm right. So it is obvious that even if it not top level domain it is ranked based on content not on regional domain/top level domain preference. If you're going to stay with the blog and your site for longer run. Free domains like co.cc, .tk will definitely hurt your blog/SEO in future. If you're unsure, then go and ask this in digitalpoint forums. There are plenty of SEO people out there. Beware of some advice on digitalpoint forums,it comes with sales pitch. Yes, after a while you've to switch to paid themes. Or even get yourself custom layout for blog. This pays in longer run. Cause typical themes won't fetch traffic in long run. You can do this as experiment on your blog to see if it works. If not, later switch to premium theme. Initially you can start with simple, minimalistic themes or magazine based themes. After sometime put adsense ads then if you earned enough you can buy premium theme. If you're in US, you've multiple ways to pay for online transaction. So it will not be problem for you to purchase later. We're back on questions. Lol. I suggest you to read Google webmaster blog and guideline for these questions. Also SEOMoz is one good resource where you'll get accurate answers than from any one of us here. Redirection issue is taken in similar lines as that of copying by search engines. Though search engines can understand subdomain/with or without www thingy. But it is always better to set 301 redirects to same instead modifying or forcing user to go to http://www.domainname.com/. This is what i've learned from my experience so far.

Some of the thing i've noticed with them are their forum is slow (in terms of accessing it). But much more visible for navigation cause they're using Vbulletin. Basic free plan is no brainer. Anyone can start with it. But comes without any domain, you're on your own. Also their second plan which requires 50 posts is not clear to me. I mean you need one time 50 posts ? or any other criteria is there? like credits/mycents type ?Also unlimited plan is indeed overselling like other hosts. There is no such thing as unlimited. Every professional hosting company agrees with this. Hosting company like Dreamhost explains it in better way, when you reach a limit initially they increase your bandwidth and hard disk. I've seen sites of some members but found most of them upgraded to unlimited plan. Sites are cool but didn't find anything pro among them. I also noticed they redirect for .co.cc domain registration. and tell you what co.cc is not at all worth it in terms of SEO. Top level domain on the other hand is much better option to invest it. I'm skeptical about their service as they don't offer domain name registration service on their own. So i'm not sure how long they'll stay in the business. I just have to check if there are commercial sites hosting with them on their paid package. That will clear lot of things.

Good thread baniboy. and some nice desktops here. especially i like tramps desktop (that 2 monitor one). anwii's desktop is also cool. the wallpaper on the desktop. and sky's desktop with windows 7 transformation pack. cool thread. I'll post my desktop's picture soon.
