This is a follow up to the get a paid domain post. If you are new to the internet, you read the previous post but still aren't willing to spend any money then this one is for you. All you do is sign up to the website (free and no credit cards or details) complete a few tasks (only surveys/sign ups etc) for free and you have your own .com domain. The website:

You can also refer you friends to the website (like I am doing if you click the banner) to receive further points to go towards a free domain or ipod/gadget. If you haven't tried these websites or are still skeptical just test it out because this is the website I used to get my first domain: webmaster-files.com. Also if you sign up using the banner link you are doing me a favor :)

A new website has been unleashed onto the internet. The site is a website showcase. You can submit your websites and get listed on the front page. Check it out and submit your website. This site is currently listed which just proves the submission does work.

I have released a new template after a long time without any updates. I believe its worth the wait due to its business look and subtle details coupled with its valid XHTML and CSS code. Enjoy the template but please keep the footer link.

Webmaster-Files.com has had a makeover! The new design is sleek and modern. Tell me what you think about the new design and anything you want added or changed on the site please post here as a comments.

In addition to the redesign the site also has new features. The new feature is the ability to buy high quality templates from the template section.

Any website can stuff a page full of keywords. But only legitimate sites--or so the reasoning goes--will actually have lots of other sites linking to them. Backlinks, then, become essential in Search Engine Optimization and website development.

But how do you go about getting them? Who are the best sites to get them from?

I have decided to open myself to custom design and coding work once again. I have my portfolio over at my business site and will have an introductory offer for custom designs. Please check the site out and if you are interested post me an email to the address on the contact page on my portfolio. My portfolio site and business site is Intelligent Studios.
