9rules Network
I’ve been waiting for the next round of submissions for 9rules Network and they have finally announced that May 17th, 2006 is the official date for round four submissions into the 9rules Network. I missed the last round submissions, but this time I am looking forward to submit my blog for the first time. I will be ready for the deadline.
1and1 Scams
Just found that Dan Cameron had a horrible experience with 1and1 couple of months back. It happened to me also 6 months back with 1and1 and they charged me some xtra money even after i faxed the cancellation form after visiting cancel.1and1.com. I even lost my domain obharath.com after 1 year because of those stupid guys at 1and1. I too like Dan believe that they have done this purposefully. They dont even bother to reply me abt my domain but they send me emails asking Satisfied with our service?. HaHa , forget abt satisfaction, i strongly recommend users of 1and1 to cancel their services immediately. 1and1 is one of the the worst hosting companies.
Now i bought this new domain again. I run my blog on one of my friends servers and so far i didnt have any problems.
The last weekend and all of this week has been horrible as i forgot to renew my domain – obharath.com. Now i am up with my new domain obharath.net. Have to wait 30 more days for my old domain to be back up. I missed blogging and re-design of my blog.

How To: Boost Your Blog Traffic
Paul has written an excellent tutorial on How To boost your Blog traffic with the current technologies and techniques. Check it out..
Many first time bloggers automatically assume that once their blog is setup and they put a few posts on it, they will get some hits and regular readers. This is quite untrue. You won’t get any traffic if no one knows about your website. In this article I hope to tackle these problems and discuss some of the common ways bloggers and webmasters drive more traffic to their site by understanding the user.
