How to Make Money Online at Home

For those that read this blog from time to time you obviously noticed that How To Make Money Online at Home has a new look. This is due to my total ignorance or just because I am always in too big of a hurry.

Many WordPress blogs lately have been getting hacked because many people do not keep their blogs updated. Well trying to be the efficient person that I am quite often not, I went into my cpanel to install the latest upgrade from WordPress. That all went fine. But then……..

I decided to clean up my cpanel from stuff I had tried to do when I first created this blog on a different account. To make a long story short I had this blog How to Make Money Online at Home on a shared hosting plan on Hostgator. Well, when I decided to upgrade to a resellers account Hostgator support transferred my shared account to the resellers account. This blog was an add-on domain under my main account. I have little to no technical expertise when it comes to the the backend of these websites. Well I had an old add-on account in the same index and decided to delete it. And I deleted the wrong domain.

I immediately went to The Affiliate Academy and put in a big H-E-L-P post. And my good friend Justin from Blogging Zombie came to my rescue. Justin used to work for Hostgator before he started to make money online blogging, so I was sure he would know what to do. He did! He knew what to look for and what to do with the information that was already stored in my back-up on my resellers account. He spent quite a bit of time on my blog but there was on glitch he could not figure out. So he sent me on my way to Hostgator support.

Now this all happened on Friday and on Saturday Hostgator upgrades the data base on the sites. If I did not get this resolved by the end of Friday I would lose all the data on this blog. Not something I wanted to happen. So I contacted Hostgator Support and they responded almost immediately. I explained my issues and they were right on it to repair my site. The final issue was not with the folder that I had deleted it had to do with the template that I was using. Once I replaced the template with a new WordPress template the site came up with all the crucial data intact. I was never so relieved.

It really pays to have good internet friends and Justin is definitely someone I consider a friend. And it pays to have a great hosting company and Hostgator has to be one of the very best. I know I have used their support several times and they have taken care of me right away.

It is hard to make money online blogging when your blog is down or gone altogether. I am so grateful I cannot express my feelings enough to Justin except to give him at least a link from this low PR blog to his make money online blog. Justin is also listed under my Make Money Online Friends pages.

Now that my make money online blog is up and running maybe I can get back to business in helping others to find out how to make money online at home. Nobody ever said this would be easy. But you sure can get hung up and sidetracked by the things you don’t know. I definitely don’t know a lot!
