Wednesday, November 16th, 2011 | Business |

Yet is a positive image, or does luck seem to follow these privileged people around. Is it the chicken or the egg? If the mind did not matter then why is the head attached to the body?

Build a Website Easily Without Knowing HTML

Thursday, November 10th, 2011 | Internet |

From time to time at GarysNoteBook.com I like to talk about things I have learned along the way to my success at building many websites.

It seemed like I spent more ...

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011 | Internet |

So you want to build a money making website without the hassles of knowing HTML or having to find, or worse, understand all of the technical terms involved in hosting your site? Although ideally it's a good idea to buy your own hosting and host your own sites, you can avoid the hassles by simply buying a domain, pointing it toward your new site, and simply promoting your new domain. You can even use cloaking so your site looks like it's actually hosted on your domain. However, to do this, you ...
