Politics / Re: Hanan Buhari Flies First-Class To London: PDP Blasts Buhari by TechieMan: 6:27pm On Apr 19, 2016
maupe:
Though there is much to be said about preaching and acting, i have to disagree with the PDP on this issue. The daughter of the President has every right to fly first class or lodge in the Presidential suite at the Waltz. She is not a public officer and did not seek the mandate of Nigerians. Wives and children should be left out of criticism political attacks. Although i would advice the President, to be more careful, and to have a sit down with his family. His message of fiscal and financial discipline must be started and vigorously pursued by him.

Webmasters / Re: Webmasters, Which Nigerian Web Hosting Company Is Reliable? Pls Help! by TechieMan: 2:03pm On Feb 26, 2016
emmalexdboy:
I've gotten a lot of negative reviews about Nigerian web host and I was wondering if anyone has experience with any Nigerian web host.

In fact, I don't even recommend them to anyone who wants to start a blog.

I've heard about Whogohost but I'm not too sure. If you have a blog that uses a Nigerian web host, please share your experience.

Please do not start promoting your several web hosting here, I just need reviews of hosting that you have used yourself and recommend.

Thanks a lot!

PS: My blog is hosted on Siteground, one of the best foreign web host you can find around. So if you can share a reliable Nigerian web host that is affordable for readers of my blog, I'll appreciate.


STARHOST.COM.NG is by far one of the best...not overloaded with too much accounts...affordable, reliable and superfast
Celebrities / Re: Let's Stop This Folly - The Bread Seller Story Is Fake! by TechieMan: 5:48pm On Feb 20, 2016
tolulakin:
As mouth-watering as the TY Bello/Jumoke Bread Seller, Photobombing story sounds, there are lots of common sense facts that point to the fact that TY Bello is just pulling a fast one on us.

I have always had one understanding of our world and especially our nation. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true. I will bring up three or four facts that make me really convinced that this bread seller story is not only a publicity stunt, but it is as well a major fool-the-public drama that TY Bello just used to get into all our heads!

1. Will a bread seller look so good? in the selfie she took with TY Bello, olajumoke was looking so cute that one would begin to wonder if she had been doing facial treatments all her life. But then, what do I know?

2. All of a sudden, she became a MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER! How foolish can we be? Just all of a sudden, a programme was to be held in Abuja and olajumoke was invited as the MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER....yes, SPEAKER! The topic was 'If we were the government'... So I asked myself, was she so educated before or did she become a motivational speaker just by virtue of being lucky or someone is just playing a simply stupid fast one on us?

3. Anybody who saw the picture where she allegedly photobombed the Tinie Tempah shoot will probably believe with me that she was a little bit overdressed to be a bread seller. She looked so good I began wondering, did she really photobomb this shoot or was she made up before the shoot?

4. So I heard Sujimoto gave her a house, STANBIC gave her an endorsement deal etc.... For what did a young lady who just got lucky deserve all these publicity and attention? For being lucky? Or for being a recipient of a TY Bello miracle? I guess we should expect an endorsement deal for the young man E-Money just gave a car and cash to if that is the way to deal!

You can call me as many names as you want for my non-conformist ideas....truth is, it will not change my belief that all these PR moves by TY Bello involving Olajumoke are ways of fooling our collective reasoning. I am certain even Basketmouth shares my views....maybe that explains his recent jokes about Olajumoke....he just wanted to tell us we are all being fooled in his usually funny way!

Y'all can keep getting fooled, Olajumoke will not become a prayer point for me for even a minute!


I rarely comment on nairaland but I had to do this.

TY Bello has values.She is unlike many other Nigerian celebrities u see today.Have u ever see her on stage performing on a show?No you will never.She is principled.

I dont think she would go that far for fame.If you care to check her track record and anticedent you ll see that thats all she basically does...helping people who cant help themselves...like her music recognising an unsong elderly lady u runs a motherless home in kogi, those are the things she does....

She came from Kush, every member of that group does the same thing today even though they dont function together, example helps young artist with talent with no money to promote themselves...

Yes there are bread sellers and others that hawk that actually look good...and besides she isnt just an ordinary bread seller she actually worked for a bakery just like a vendor works for a newspaper publisher...

In summary, Ty Bello brand speaks for herself, she isnt a noise maker but makes lasting impacts, deception, lies and cook up story is not part of her legacy the little I know of her....


I m a friend to Emem(Kush)so I know a bit more about the Kush members

One other thing, from the original story TY did mention that after she photobumbed they told her to actually go back and pose with the artist for a few more shots ....and they pciked the best...go check the original story

And about being overdressed: I ve experience in graphic design as web developer and I can tell u that they r any photoshop users who can transform any pic, including managing lights and making a cheap outfit look quality...

Programming / 12 Reasons Why A Business Facebook Page Is An Absolute Must by TechieMan: 12:57am On Jan 26, 2016
I have a Facebook page for every of my websites.This is not because I am crazy about being social or trying to be trendy.Its because its an absolute must.There are many reason why you should by all means get a Facebook page for your business and I will share below my top 12 benefits of creating and managing one.

12 REASONS WHY A FACEBOOK BUSINESS PAGE IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST.

#1 Increase Site Traffic.
fb-trafficYour Facebook business page will in almost all cases leverage on your Facebook personal page contacts and followers.Lets say you already have 4,000 friends on your Facebook personal account, this number will see your business page once published and shared on your personal account timeline.In addition, your friends and their friends also get to like or share your business page to their followers too.

#2 Meet your targeted audience.
Its a good thing that your friends and friends of friends gets to like, share and read post from your business page

but what is absolutely amazing is the fact that you get to draw the attention of only friends who are interested in what you are selling.This is key because it helps to build a database of fan who are keenly interested in your niche.audience

#3 Build a Loyal Fan base.
Closely following #2 above is having the opportunity to cultivate loyal followers who can easily translate to business leads in the nearest future.This is useful for the same reason most business owners provide newsletters subscription on their website so they do not loose them after a while.Loyal fans may have other reasons (sometimes based on sentiments) to patronize you other than pricing or value offered by your product and services.

#4 Drive Traffic to your website.
Your Facebook page can drive tons of leads to your website.This is especially beneficial for businesses selling online and/or offering products which can be ordered online in real-time.

#5 Spend Less on Marketing.
Facebook Ads are comparatively cheaper to Prints, ads on Radio & TV or any other traditional means of advertising.
In fact, setting up the page in the first place is absolutely free(except for a little expenses you might incur on hiring graphic designer for your logo and page cover).Your page can command thousands and even hundreds of thousand of followers without spending a dime on adverts with a bit of due diligence.Now how is that for a cheap means of potential business leads?

#6 Branding is everything!
Of course branding is not everything but lets look at it this way: If you have a great product at a competitive price, its as good as having a bad product if people do not belief in it.This is exactly what I mean by branding is everything!A Facebook business page allows you to impress on the minds of your fans and create an image that may not be easily eroded in a hurry.One of the reasons this happens, as I said before,is cos you have got your followers loyalty.

Webmasters / Shared Web Hosting Vs VPS Vs Dedicated Vs Cloud Hosting by TechieMan: 7:17pm On Jan 08, 2016
SHARED HOSTING

This is the most common form of Web hosting where hundreds and in some cases thousands of websites and applications hosted on the same server share resources like CPU time, Disk space, Memory etc.Its the most basic type of web hosting and an entry point for many hosted websites.In this case one computer or server or machine is shared by many users.Its affordable and easily accessed and managed within an interface called control panel eg Cpanel. All technical and administration end is handled by server admin and so its safe to say shared hosting are operated on managed servers.

Another form of shared hosting is Reseller hosting where the hosting company offers clients a solution they can resell to others.

Disadvantage of Shared Hosting

1)Performance maybe affected by other hosted accounts

2)Activities (malicious or fraudulent) of others sharing the same machine may lead to account suspension of authentic users.

3)Little to no control over the server – no root access to machine

4)Very basic and almost poor security.

5)Limited ability to handle high traffic levels or spikes in site visitors

SCORE

Cost +
Performance +++
Security +
Skill Required +
Server Control +



VPS HOSTING

VPS – Virtual Private Server is a single machine which is divided to many virtual computers each acting as though they where independent servers.This is an effective means of web hosting for users seeking to have some level of control over their hosting needs but cannot afford a Dedicated server.This means that each virtual server has root access and SSH that can be used to install software and applications required for managing hosted websites.

VPS are better for security in comparison to Shared hosting.They are either Managed or Unmanaged Servers and in the case of Unmanaged Server it means the client/customer is responsibility for configuring patches updates, installation and management of his own virtual account.

Disadvantage of VPS

1.Steep learning curve

2.Expensive

3.Site performance can still be affected by other sites on the server to a certain degree.

SCORE

Cost ++++
Performance ++++
Security +++
Skill Required ++++
Server Control +++



DEDICATED SERVER

Dedicated server hosting is like leasing or buying an entire house for yourself.You live alone and have full control determining the design,what comes in and goes out.This is the best form of web hosting if money is no object.The customer enjoys full control and can hire a server admin in the case of Unmanaged server who takes care of all technical requirements.Its secure, fast, reliable and flexible for all hosting needs and are for those who require power, performance and full control for their projects.

Most hosting companies runs dedicated server which is configured to deliver shared, VPS and reseller hosting to thousands of customers.

Disadvantage of Dedicated Server

They are very expensive.

SCORE

Cost ++++++
Performance ++++++
Security ++++++
Skill Required +++++
Server Control +++++



CLOUD HOSTING

Cloud web hosting offers the greatest ability to handle high volume of traffic and spikes at pay-as-you-go billing.The way it works is very interesting.A cloud or cluster or group of computers in different locations and/or countries work together to deliver high quality hosting services to hundreds of website.

The high point of Cloud hosting is the fact that its resources are extremely scale-able.This ensures that websites with less needs on the same Cloud lets up resources for others that require them.Another interesting advantage a website hosted on a cloud has is that failure of a single server on the cloud CANNOT lead to a down-time as all servers work together to compliment one another.

Cloud hosting service delivers website requests from servers nearest to the user making them.This ensures speed and high performance.Most Clouds are billed on pay-as-you-go basis meaning you end up picking little to no bill at the end of a cycle for websites with low activity.This is a good thing compared to VPS and shared hosting with monthly/yearly flat fee billing.Examples of cloud hosting includes Amazon AWS, Google Cloud Platform(GCP), Microsoft Azure etc.

Disadvantage of Cloud Hosting

1)Expensive for big projects

2)Often comes without root access

3)No control on hosting location

4)Low privacy.

SCORE

Cost ++++
Performance +++++
Security +++++
Skill Required +++++
Server Control +++

Webmasters / Main Difference Btw IP Address Vs Domain Name Vs DNS by TechieMan: 4:48pm On Jan 08, 2016
DOMAIN, IP ADDRESS, DNS?

What are they really? Its possible in your office portal or website the techie guy there types in strings of numbers separated by dots (something like 196.92.43.54) and bingo a webpage opens and in other cases he types a domain name in the browser address bar to get to the same page.How come?Whats happening?
I WILL TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED

A computer or any electronic device is essentially identified by an IP Address – four strings of numbers separated by dots.They are unique meaning no two machines or computer or device has the same IP address as the other.This is important to avoid conflicts when one computer tries to communicate with others.An IP address can also be static or prefixed or dynamically generated.This is a story for another day.

Let me tell you something else.Always look at a website as though it where a computer.This is because a website is simple a subset of a big computer called SERVERS.

This is why you simple access some websites by simply typing in the IP address of the Server where they are hosted.But the thing is its easy to remember www.yahoo.com than its IP address.This brings us to Domain names WHAT ARE DOMAIN NAMES

A domain name is a simple name which can linked to an IP address with via a database called DNS (we talk a bit more about DNS shortly).This means a domain name which could be likened to a house address only basically tries to help us understand, remember or identify a device, machine or a website.

SO WHERE DOES DNS REALLY COMES IN?

DNS means Domain Name Server and its a sort of a database application which keeps records of all the domain names and IP address and which is mapped to which.This important for the WWW to be able to find a page when you surf the net.

So it means that a DNS could be likened to a telephone directory where phone numbers are linked to physical addresses.
