Sex.com not so sexy for owner

By Esther Josiah

About the author:
Kathryn Vercillo is an avid blogger on frugality and personal finance at Promotional Codes.

Having the right domain name is one of the most important things that you can do for your business. A great domain name helps people find your website, generating traffic and helping to drive up profits. That’s why there are so many people willing to pay thousands (and even millions) of dollars for some of the most popular domain names in the world.

However, as one domain name owner has learned the hard way, there may be such a thing as paying too much.

Hosting for Haiti – Together we can make a difference

By Esther Josiah

hostingforhaiti

With 200,000 people feared dead, 250,000 injured, and 1.5 million homeless, it couldn’t be clearer that the Haitians need our help, and urgently too.

UK2 has joined up with other hosting companies such as Rackspace, Go Grid and The Planet to do our part to help in the relief effort by launching a new website – HostingforHaiti.com. In partnership with the American Red Cross, we aim to provide support which may include mobilising relief workers, sending relief supplies, and providing financial resources for recovery.

With the combined effort of customers and employees of all the hosting companies involved, we are optimistic that we can make a difference. And you can too. There is no amount too small, afterall little drops of water makes a mighty ocean.

Here’s how you can help:

1) Donate to the International Response Fund. 100% of the funds will go to the American Red Cross Haiti Relief and Development fund.

2) Spread the word. Add http://www.hostingforhaiti.com to your blog, twitter, facebook, and anywhere else you can think of.

3) Ask Others to Donate. Together we can make a difference.

Thank you.
