The Easy Way to Start Your Own Web Site
The Easy Way to Start Your Own Web Site
In this day in age, it seems like everything is online and everybody has a website. But not all websites are good. In fact over half of the websites that I visit on a day-to-day basis are downright terrible. From the look and style, to the functionality of it. Most people who start a website are doing it to promote a business or product, so they just look for the cheapest way to get their name and contact information on the web. Thinking that if someone sees their contact information on the Internet, then they will call or email if they are interested in that product or service. That is true for some of the time, but for a lot of people they won’t bother going that far. When I come across a trashy website I ask myself, “Does this company do work, or make their products as poorly as they made their website? This site looks like trash, am I going to get trash from them?” You want to promote yourself or your business in a clean, professional way.
There are lots of easy ways to do this now, without spending a lot of money! You can start a website for cheap and have it look like you spent thousands of dollars on it. There are tons of open source solutions for web design now that you can find that will help you to customize and build your own website with ease. A very good award winning content management system is Joomla.com. Joomla Website Developers give you all the tools you need to build and manage your own website, and most importantly get that clean and professional look you need!
There are tons of different tools like Joomla out there, so shop around and see which one would work best for you and your business!

How to Change Your Google Voice Phone Number, How to Release Your Phone Number From Google Voice
I finally figured it out! Google has been killing me with this problem for months now and I was finally able to get my Google Voice number changed even thoughI didn’t have access to that account anymore.
To read the full story of what happened with my Google Voice Phone Number and account click HERE. If you don’t want to read the whole story ill just give you a little summary:
A few months ago I created a Google Voice account and got a phone number hooked up to my cell phone. After I had done that I decided I wanted to change it and get a different Google Voice phone number. So when I got a new number on Google voice and tried to set it to my cell phone, but it kept telling me that “there was already a Google Voice phone number associated with that phone.” It wouldn’t let me override the old number. Nothing seemed to work, so I just decided to delete the Google Voice account all together in hopes that the Google Voice Phone number would also be erased from my cell phone. It didn’t. Now I Wasn’t able to access the account and was stuck with that Google voice phone number attached top my cell phone.This went on for weeks trying to get some support from Google, and trying to override the old phone number with a new one, but nothing worked.
Finally, today I tried it again. I just typed my cell phone number into the new Google Voice Number that i wanted and it worked perfectly. It overrides the old Google Voice Number no problem.
The only thing that I can think of is that Google did not allow or have the capabilities to override your old numbers a couple months ago. They seem to now. So if you find your self in the same situation, just create another Google Voice account and Number, and have it dial the phone that you want it on and it will override the old Google Voice Number. That’s all!

How to Reset Your Bluetooth Headset, I Can’t Sync My Blue Tooth Up To My Phone
I recently got a blue tooth headset given to my by a friend who didn’t need it, but they didn’t remember the pass code to sync the blue tooth headset up with my cell phone. I tried a number of different common number combination but I couldn’t get any of them to work. After I had tried about 10 different code combination I went to the trusty internet!
I discovered that most bluetooth headsets have a standard pass code of (0000).
So if you find that you cannot sync your bluetooth headset up with your cell phone, try (0000) for the code. This code is pretty standard for most blue tooth headsets.
Hope it works for you, it worked for mine!
