If you’re going to have an online business, there’s a few things you need to get started. First you need your idea and a plan. Then you need to buy the domain at a domain registrar like GoDaddy. Then you need to get your domain hosted. Now some domain registrars offer hosting as well as domains, but their service is awful as is their customer service.
If you’re looking to start a new online business, wish to give your offline business and online presence, or are looking for a better deal or better service in web hosting, then you can take a look at: Concentric hosting, a small business hosting provider. They offer shared hosting and dedicated hosting. When you go dedicated, your sites are on a server all by themselves so the sites load faster since it’s not being shared with others. They have a basic plan which starts off at $13.50 per month. This plan comes with 2,000 megs of disk space, 40gb of bandwidth, 80 email accounts, 10 domains and you even get $50 worth of credit to spend at google adwords to promote your new site.

I decided to write this post because a lot of my readers are self employed so there’s a good chance you either don’t have health insurance or are paying for it out of your own pocket, which can get very pricey.
Here’s a site that offers you the ability to search for health insurance companies and get a Blue Cross Blue Shield quote. The way it works is you select your coverage, you get free health insurance quotes, and then you can apply online and get insured.

Store Credit Cards, Final Comments

Now that we’re done with part I and part II of our store credit card reviews, here are some final comments about store credit cards.
Sure there’s pros and cons, but overall if you have decent-to-good credit, it’s best to avoid store credit cards like the plague. The little discount you get from these cards isn’t worth it, because it’s a one-time discount for a life-time card. Why use a store credit card when you can use your regular credit card (which builds your credit also). Your real credit card can also earn airline miles or rewards points, which your store credit card doesn’t have.
Store credit cards should only be used if you feel that you can take advantage of the store. Either by using the card to raise your credit score, keep more of your own money longer, or to get yourself a discount, without ever paying them a dime of interest.
Finally, remember, store credit cards aren’t offered for your benefit, but for the store’s benefit.

I Hate Inflation

Cash Info

What’s inflation all about? It pretty much means that the same $100 bill you had 5 years ago is worth less now than it was before. But why is that? Well, everything else has gone up in value! In just the last year the cost of gasoline has gone way up, house values have skyrocketed, the minimum wage has gone up, even a gallon of milk is more expensive. So if you had a $15/hour job 5 years ago, that same job with the same earnings doesn’t sound so good now. Amazingly, a $50,000 a year income sounded good before, but if you’re living in Southern California now, you’re lucky to be considered middle-class now.
If gas goes up then the cost to transport items either by truck or by ship or air will also inevitably rise. Because of the recent increase in the minimum wage, if small businesses have to pay their employees more, they need raise the cost of their products. What we’re seeing and will continue to see is things getting more and more expensive, therefore your income must also go up accordingly. This means your job should be giving you yearly raises, or if you’re self-employed, your business has to keep increasing it’s profits just to keep up with the rising costs of living.

At Coupon Chief.com, you can find thousands of coupons to online stores. These are called coupon codes or discount codes. Before I go shopping online I always make sure I can find a coupon code to use. These deals usually expire, so it’s best to have a site in your bookmarks that keeps updating the codes so you can always have a working on.
One of the places I visit is Coupon Chief, where they have Best Buy coupons. I usually buy my electronics at either Amazon or Best Buy. The reason is because I can always find coupon codes to these sites. Usually the stores have discounts, sales, free shipping, but with an extra coupon code you can really get some good savings, better than you’d find by going to the store itself.
