Its been a decade

Ten years ago, on this very same day, I bought this domain for my blog. The joy of typing www.thinknonsense.com in the address bar which then lead to my blog was overwhelming. At that time, I never thought I would stick to this domain for ten years. But then I did.

It’s not at all relevant to me that hardly anyone visits my blog. There are like 10 visitors a day and sometimes a spike is caused by the crawlers and bots. These stats, which was one of the reasons for which I bought domain, doesn’t matter to me anymore. What matters is that I have web presence which is unique in nature.

I would very much thank to Bizhat, my webhost, especially to a guy named Santosh who used to handle the backend. He helped me in setting up this domain. The new staff they have recruited is also helpful. I hope they continue giving free webspace and continue hosting my website while doing so.

Above all, thank you reader. Whoever you are, Wherever you are, thank you so much for visiting me.

Till we meet next time..

No more Blogging

Finally the day arrived. I cannot do it any more. I cannot give more time to blogging. My job sux like hell. It is taking hell out of me. So I’ve decided to stop blogging and get some time out. I was thinking of doing this for many days but never took a step in this direction. I’ll be back. But I cannot say when.

Also I am selling this domain. If anyone interested use the link below to contact me.

Going off track

If you have noticed, throughout this month I have failed to update blog on daily basis. I was successful for the whole year to update it daily. With the start of new year, I have failed to do so. There is no single definite reason for this failure. I want to put all those reasons in this post so that I get some relief from the failure.

The first reason being my previous web host. I don’t know what happened to the servers but they kept my blog offline for about three days. A perfect start to new year as I said already. The staff must have been in the “new year eve” environment for these days. Lot’s of booze. I think my old admin friend left that company. I didn’t got any replies from him. Hello… Anyone home??

Then I changed my web host and was happy to get good speed. Things looked good. But when everything is going ok, something bad is about to happen. Suddenly I started getting memory errors. I mailed and mailed lots of time. Got replies like “Fixed”, “Done” and similar one liners(And one worder’s). Finally my blog was offline again due to new web hosting. After some hours it was back but I was getting too many errors. It looks like he installed CentOS again. Everything works quick and no errors now. Continue reading →

Changes to be made

After buying this domain now I want to make this blog get more visits. It’s now easy to remember url. So that problem is solved. Now the thing just stops around the content. Bloggers all around face a bitter truth after sometime. If you are a blogger then you may probably have faced it already. It’s my time to face it. I never expected this to be so soon.

When you start blogging about something, you have good amount of ideas to start with. You have plenty of topics. And it is one of the easiest part of the blog. Yes it is easy to start posting. Then you start writing more and more. It keeps on increasing. You get addicted to blogging and cannot stay away from blogging.

Soon you realize that you have reached a saturation point. At this point it becomes difficult to think about something and write it. Many times you don’t get topics. I am trying to find my way out and will surely post about this in my coming posts. When you don’t have any topics what will you write?? You cannot just do the copy paste stuff and loose the reputation gained. You have to write and you are out of ideas. Continue reading →

Finally a Domain

Phewwwwwww…This domain thing made me go crazy for a week now. To notify all my fellow readers, whom I’ve not been responding for a week, I bought a domain. www.thinknonsense.com. So please update the bookmarks. Though you’ll be redirected to this page automatically I still suggest to update the bookmarks. To all my link exchangers also. Please update the link in your blogroll. Your link stays with me anyways.

I bought this domain on 4th July. I thought it’ll be easy task to change things and within a day or two my site will be up. But no. Very poor support from my host company Hostindia made my life difficult. To all those buying a domain, I suggest not to go for the said company. Whatever I asked I got a one or two line reply without any detailed info. They should provide support when I pay them the price they want. But they didn’t. The reply timings were also not good. Queries asked after 6pm got reply after 7am next morning. This should not happen with domain seller.

The reason I went for this was that I don’t have a credit card. And if I had I would never associate it with paypal. I have some money in my paypal and I was able to buy a domain by using send money link. The activation was quick. I got the domain running very quickly. But poor support made me go mad. Now I got a lesson and know why people go with Godaddy. Continue reading →
