Page Rank Debate and cPanel Backups

Almost lost my voice doing yesterday’s podcast recording, so appreciate my excitement about getting this put out there for the public and my lack of probably common sense to stop talking when I should have. On this week’s edition of the Web Hosting Show I covered the following:

  • Google PageRank Updates and Debate
  • Discrimination Against Southerners in Hosting
  • How to Backup Using cPanel
  • Best of the Forum Scripts
  • ICANN Investigates Insider Domain Registrations

Should be a podcast everybody can get something out of. If not, you can have your money back! Jokes on you though, you can listen for free.

Green Web Hosting Debate

There has been a lot of talk about green web hosting lately. I am all for saving the planet as much as the next guy – but I don’t think the practices that are going on are actually doing much for the environment. Instead it is one big PR game being played with the public – and many are falling for it hook, line and sinker.

I covered this topic (as it relates to web hosting) and a few others this week on the podcast.

For most people, green hosting is that kind that has been sitting in the back of the refrigerator a little too long. Pretty soon though I have a feeling that either by hook or crook we will all be impacted by in in one way or another in the future. I’ll talk about it, tell you what it is and let you know what you can do to help.

It seems like if you have enough money you can buy yourself out of your problem and then you don’t actually have to worry about changing your day to day business or day to day life. As I talked about on this week’s edition of the Web Hosting Show – I think there’s something that smells funny about the whole green web hosting deal.

On this podcast I was thrilled to get to have a sit down chat with Host Search’s Web Editor John Hughes. Because of the Web Hosting Show, I have known John for a few years as one of the public voices and go to guys for Host Search. He really is one of the “good guys” in the hosting industry.
