Private domain registration
Identity theft is a rampant crime here in the U.S. We have to wary with our information, especially when we use the Internet at lot either for personal or business transactions. When you pay online, only give your credit card or bank account number; don’t give out your social security number unless you know who you are dealing with. Personally, I don’t right away give my personal information. When I bought my first domain, I was careful with my personal information because it can be seen in WHOIS. So, what I did was I purchased Privacy to protect my info. So, if you want to buy a new domain, be sure to purchase Privacy. Actually, there are web hosting companies offers Private Domain Registration for free when you buy a domain from them – one of them is bluehost.com.
Make your job easier and faster with MS Word
I use MS Word in writing a post in my blog. Do you write your thoughts in the “create or add new” page in your blog right away? I use MS Word to see my grammar, word spelling, and word counting. I feel more comfortable if I make a draft first before I publish my post. Using MS Word is more efficient when you do some sponsored reviews – advertisers require us to make 50-300 words. To check word count, just go to “Tools” in the Menu bar and then click word count. Right now, I have 140 words here. After you’re done with your work, just do the copy and paste method. I simply use Ctrl A- to highlight the whole article, then Ctrl C for copy and then Ctrl V for paste. I use keyboard short cuts.You can make your job easier and faster with MS Word.
