What had happened to my travel blog - Travel Feeder?

I'm kind of fed up with my website host. This is already the second time since my Travel Feeder travel blog first started in last June. Travel Feeder is hosted by Hostgator and this is the second time in a month that my site is not accessible! What had already happened? First I thought my network connection has down again, but realised later it is only my travel blog that is not accessible!
If it persists, I'm going to look for new web host! Fortunately, I have backed up my blog contents recently. But what will happen next? Has anyone experienced this with Hostgator before? Will the web host go wind-up by any chance? Any advise on the precautionary steps and actions?

How much is your website worth?

This is a money making tool I came across recently whereby you will be able to check how much your site is worth based on the total links and traffic stat. You could always copy and paste this little badge to your blog to wow your readers IF your site worth some decent money. It is ironic that the traffic or number of visitors to your site everyday will get even more when it is already plenty but the other way round applies also. So this tool is just to courage your existing members to stay on rather then to attract new visitors if there isn't much.

Good Money Making Blog: Gather Success.com

At Good Money Maker, we always review those talented young blogger who are making decent money from their blogs. This round I spent over a week to analyse and read through all his posts, and finally I put up the review for this exciting and aggressive young money making blog: Gather Success.com. Actually, I came to know him by his highly recommended Atomic Blogging e-book. And 1 of those who has given high remarks of it is our renown John Chow. We leave this to the later part.

Let's come back and have a look at Gather Success. This blog is relatively young (about 20 months) and the author is young too. At the age of 24, Alvin Phang has successfully generated decent income for his full time Internet marketing business. He started this blog on 7th October 2006. With his hard work and determination, he managed to maintain his posting rate at an average 1 post per day and this means there are totally 500+ articles that he has posted in this Marketing Blog! In return, he has a very well updated blog with plenty of his fans and subscribers who are following his updates everyday! For new subscriber like me, I have lots of blogging tips to catch up and this is why I have to spent weeks to review this blog and mind you this is going to be a long winded review from me.


First, we take a look at his blog design. Striking red coloured navigation bar over pure white background creates a very good contrast to attract readers. There is only a little $ sign as header image in his blog and other images you will be able to see are all marketing staffs. Internet marketing staff and advertisement are all grouped and squeezed inside the 1st page. This is a very clever strategy from the marketing point of view. Overall, if you visit this blog for the first time, you will immediately know that Gather Success.com is definitely an internet marketing blog, and a very informative internet marketing blog and nothing else.

So, the first impression is good. How about the content? Is it as good as the layout? The answer is "YES". Gather Success as its name suggests is a blog to gather all successeful marketing tools and tips and featured under one roof in order to benefit its subscribers and also its affliates. Money making tips such as traffic generation and SEO optimisation are among those useful guides to read on. On top of that, Alvin Phang has managed to conduct interviews with those top money making internet marketer and featured into this blog as well. Voices from such as John Chow, Ewen Chia, Tracy Repchuck and NateWhitehill could be heard from this blog too!

In terms of money making as what my reviews always targeted for, Gather Success is surely inside the list. With plenty of affliate program such as Atomic Blogging, ad sales and private programes, total income of this blogs has reached a high figure of over USD11k in April alone! What's his secret then? You could all find out in Gather Success.com. After all, I would say the key to his success is the total traffic generated to this blog with nearly 25 thousand unique hits per month!
