Willie Crawford is selling 588 domain names for $1500.00 each (negotiable).

Ironicaly, the email is titled:
OVER in 40 Minutes - 592 Domain Names Valued At $1500 Or More For Only $30 Each

The sales page advertises the domain names for $1,500.00 each.

Worth a look.

First I let my domain name KurtMelvin.com lapse. It's registered with a service I don't use much and just missed it. I renewed it OK but it's taking a while to propogate and not noticing I've sent emails with links to that domain so....not good.

Then I notice the VPS that hosts some of my domains, including KurtMelvin.com and this one Pheeds.com was down. So I log into my hosting account to request support. It wasn't just my VPS down but it appears the host's entire network was down. I've had the VPS go down for short periods once in a while, but have never not been able to even log into the host's site and support system.

Now for a double-dose of aspirin...

IFTTT for automation will soon no longer offer unlimited free service. For a short time only, they let you choose a monthly price starting at $1.99 a month and promise to honor the rate you choose "indefinately".

IFTTT is really useful for syndicating content. I use IFTTT to take the RSS pheed from the Pheeds forum and post a link to every new public thread on my Twitter account and a FB page every time a new thread is created. You can do the same with any RSS pheed like those generated by WordPress.

You can also use IFTTT for things like every time you upload a new video to Youtube to post it on all your social accounts, etc.

This video shows 30 quick tips and tricks using PowerPoint. You may be surprised at how many things you can do with PPT. PPT also has a new feature that lets you export as animated GIFs...but you need WIN 10 to use it and I'm still on WIN 7.

When I was young there was a "generation gap" where old and young generations didn't understand each other. I told myelf when I got older I'd still be cool and not old fashioned and keep up with the new trends.

I was sooooo wrong!

First, I didn't realize how bad the new music would be. And I don't want to go to a hair stylist, I want a barber. Mixologist? No thanks. If I still drank just give me a bottle of whiskey and a shot glass and I don't need a juggling act first. Barrista? How about a waitress...

Why does everything have to be so fancy?

Humble Bundle is a cool site that has a bunch of special offers. It's mostly games but there's other things too. The way it works is they get software/games that are a little old, then sell them cheap and donate to a charity. You can choose from a variety of different charities.

This month (good for another couple of weeks from the time of this post) they have a bundle of graphics software. You can donate a minimum of $1 to $30 to get larger bundles of software.

Here's a few programs available and these come with some good add ons:
PaintShop Pro
CorelCAD MSRP: $699
Corel Painter 2020
CorelDRAW

If you're into graphics this is a really great deal and your payment is donated to a charity of your choice.

69 List Building Tips from the Experts
https://www.theagentsofchange.com/list-building-tips/

The article offers a lot of great tips for building building email lists. However,  I think many of these folks leave out the one single key element, and that's getting people to actually see your email optin forms AKA traffic.

I bolded the tips that I feel include the traffic element. IMO the others a good, solid tips they are more about optimizing your list and you can do them unless you already have traffic.

I also think they all left out one of the very best ways to build lists...and that to offer affiliate programs that can pay up to 100%. One of the tips in the article is to write a book. How do you get traffic? The advice in the article suggests listing it on Amazon. OK, but another option is to sell if for something like $7 and pay influencers 100% commisions. This creates a list of buyers.
