Fractured.Logic 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Welcome to the Trap, imaginonic To answer your previous questions, in specific: $2 buys 1 month of the basic package plan. If you plan to continue hosting your website for additional months or years, you would need to earn at least another $2 by the time 1 month had expired. If you are moderately active, this is no difficult task. For example, I only participate, currently, in the mornings of Monday - Friday... and that's if I'm not out with my daughter, or job searching, or taking care of other responsibilities. I am unable to check in, at all, on the weekends. I spend a maximum of 20 hours a week participating on these forums, and in that time, in about a month and a half, I have accumulated a little over $20. Mind you, I'm one of the more verbose members around here, so the MyCents 3.0 system appears to like me quite a bit, but anyone is capable of achieving what I have done, and better. [Edit]Later this day, I earned another 2 dollars just from this morning's activity [/Edit] :XD: No, $2 will not purchase your own domain. By default, your website will be listed as at "http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/" (or Xisto, etc.). However, you would be able to, with additional participation, earn the credit which would buy a domain URL. The least expensive domain available may be purchased at $9.99/year. Meaning, to have your own domain on the basic package plan, you would need to earn about $12 for the first month, and $2 for each month thereafter, and another $12 by the end of the year. If I can earn 2 years of a domain in less than 2 months, then I would not be able to foresee any problems with you doing something similar. I hope that helps you out!
