Deep’s account hosted many other sites too and all were down because of this and another blog. I was on a visit to my Grandparents house at the time and never knew that my site was down until I visited it on my uncle’s PC. But I thought it was a temporary thing.

Later while traveling back home, Deep called to let me know about the mess created by DreamHost and that he has been contacting them for a long time with no luck.

After many hours, Dreamhost replied back and unblocked all sites except for this blog. I then created my own DreamHost account so that I can use VPS. Many more hours later of contacting DreamHost they moved my domain to the new account, but forgot to move the files and database!

I contacted them many times, but they never replied back. Luckily Deep came to the rescue and moved the files and database for me today.  None of my sites have ever been down for this long and thanks to DreamHost I lost a lot of traffic and money

I am now waiting for them to move the files and database of my hardware review blog to my new DreamHost account. I won’t say DreamHost sucks but their support really sucks!

Have you faced any problems with DreamHost?

• WordPress Plugin: Feed Count – Feed Count is a WordPress Plugin that displays the number of subscribers to your feedburner feed in plain text. The plugin allows you to customize the feed count with CSS and I am sure those who don’t like the FeedBurner chicklet will like this plugin.
• Get New Readers For Your Blog By Guest Blogging – Have you fed your new blog with many quality posts and yet find that your blog is not read by others? Content is surely king but it isn’t enough to increase your blog subscribers. People need to know that your blog exists and for that you need to promote your blog. There are many ways to promote your blog but one of the best way is to guest blog on popular blogs in your niche.
• Write A To-Post List For Your Blog – Have you ever been in a situation where you have an idea for a post but then later you don’t remember it when you want to write the post? To prevent this from happening again, create a text file named ‘topost.txt’ on your desktop and whenever you get an idea for a post open the text file and write down a rough title for the post and describe the content of the post in a few words.
• Increase Your Blog’s Subscribers By Offering Email Subscription – As there are still many people who do not know what RSS is, offering an Email Subscription form on your blog is a good way to get those people to subscribe. For those who have not done it yet, this post tells you how to do it.
• Give All Your Advertisers Even Exposure – Got Banners is a WordPress Plugin that lets you randomize banners like you see on TechCrunch and John Chow’s blog. Unlike other banner rotators, Got Banners displays all the banners provided simultaneously. But, in a different random order each time.
• Use Images To Get Your Best Posts Noticed By Your Visitors – Many of us link to our blog’s most popular posts in the sidebar or in a separate page to show visitors that our blog is worth reading. But how many visitors do you think will notice these text links on your sidebar? The best way to draw your visitors attention to your best posts is to replace the text links with images.
• Another Way To Draw Attention To Your Best Posts – If you have too many posts that you want your new visitors to check out, either create many images and rotate them or list out the text links in an organized way like you see on Problogger and FreelanceSwitch.
• 12 Reasons Why I Like Windows Live Writer – Using a desktop blog editor saves you a lot of time and makes blogging easier. There are many desktop blog editors available like Windows Live Writer (WLW), Ecto and Qumana. Being a Windows lover, I use Microsoft’s Windows Live Writer. This post lists the reasons why I like it.
• 16 Things To Do After Starting A New WordPress Blog -  If you just started a new WordPress blog, here’s a list of things you must do.

I currently have two more blogs other than this one which I never wrote about here as they aren’t ready.

I am now looking for good writers to help me with these two blogs, I will be paying per review. If anyone is interested and has expertise in either Hardware or Software, send me an email using the contact form and I will reply back as soon as possible.

Readers who just want to check out my other blogs, I will let you know once they are ready.

Update: These are the answers to the common questions I got from interested writers

1. Can I reproduce the reviews at my own website?

No, I can’t allow the reviews to be published on any other site. That would create duplicate content.

2. How much is the expected page length for reviews?

The reviews must have a minimum of 200 words

3. What are you looking for in a review?

• few pictures of the product being reviewed
• product description
• product features
• your opinion about the product
• the pros and cons

4. How often should I write?

You must write atleast two times a week

5. How do you plan to pay?

Payment will be made at the end of the month via PayPal. So I hope you have a PayPal account.
