When the time comes to set up my own internet marketing one of my first thoughts is to buy a domain name to establish a web site for my new marketing. I may spend a lot of time dreaming up possible names and testing their availability but there is another option I should consider — buying an existing domain name.
Obviously I do not want to buy an existing web site for my new marketing as I wish to create a web site that accurately reflects my marketing vision, but there are a number of advantages to buying an existing domain name and if I do not yet have my heart set on a new domain name I will likely find an existing domain name available at a price not much greater than I will pay for a fresh name and an existing domain name brings a number of advantages.
One of the primary advantages of an existing domain name is that it already has traffic flowing toward it. Obviously the amount of traffic will vary greatly depending on what the current owner has done for promotion but any traffic is more than the zero visitors a fresh name will deliver.
Another advantage is from search engine optimization. Many domainers will have at least put in a small amount of time optimizing their domain name portfolio for search engines. Others put in a great deal of time and effort targeting key words and making sure the domain name is listed. It takes time for various domain names to work their way into search engine listings and if someone has already done that work for me then I am ready to capitalize on their groundwork as soon as I take over the name.
A third advantage is that the wild frontier of short, targeted, key word domain names is over. It is not impossible but very difficult to find an unregistered domain name in a short, catchy phrase and even more so if I have a specific key word in mind. However, many of the domainers who registered these domain names did so as an investment rather than a long-term project of their own and so are willing to sell. The only way to acquire many of these great domain names is by purchasing an existing domain name. I will not be able to find one to register fresh.
Choosing the right domain name for my internet marketing enterprise can be an exciting and challenging time but if I take the time to learn more about the available domain names I can buy then I just might find the bargain of a lifetime and start off my marketing with a bang.

Days of week
There are many classifications of days of week. For me, it is connected with business and business activity.
Monday. The Day of repairing communications. Half of this day - I have lots of calls. Payments usually does not happen. As a whole, the heavy and intense day, results of activity which will affect all the week long.
Tuesday. I start to work. And get the first payments which was sent on Monday.
Wednesday. The most active business day. It is usually allocated under meetings.
Thursday. Deadly. Usually all this day are engaged in the internal affairs. But I usually programm or flame about something. And usually few sales and payments .
Friday. Day of payments when they are necessary - you can't remove money any more and it is silly to send. No work. Usually people at this day like plankton don't want to work,actively climbing in blogs, contacts, schoolmates or just looking photos from trips to Turkey. Sadness.
Saturday. The best working day. Nobody calls, does not distruct, simple sit and work. It is a pity, that others have the day off and someone pull you somewhere.
Sunday. Zero point in a view of work. The Day of expectation of Monday.

Make a Plan to Reach Your Goals
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.”
- Luke 14:28-32

Dedicated servers
Usually people buy hosting for their sites from hosting providers. But TRUE designers and coders like me, buy dedicated server, which I think useful, because of HIGH traffic income and lots of projects, which easly manipulate with own hands and full access to them. But... there are a lot of advantages and disadvantages of useing Dedicated Servers.
Advantages of Using Dedicated Server:
By using Dedicated Server, you will get full control and flexibility, 100% network uptime, high-quality bandwidth, 24×7 support by dedicated server experts. In addition, you can optimize the server and allocate web server space according to your own requirements; you can install any software you need; you will get optional full backup to disk at any time;by using dedicated server, you can be the host to other websites as well.Disadvantages of Using Dedicated Server:
Dedicated Servers costs a lot, for example in Estonia - cheapest 200$ monthly or 5000$ onetime, while u can find shared hosting for only 10$ with PHP, Mysql and so on; you have to be an expert to install OS like Linux, and maintain it.
And finally, you should update it with new hardware and other stuff like fan. :D
