Mail sending and Sitespeed

Posted about 12 years ago , by Dude1981

Hi all :)
Just a few thoughts....

First: The activation Mail is marked as spam. I guess due to a inproper configuration of the mail send function, or the ip of the server is blacklisted.

Second: Site speed. Sometimes it is really slow here (having a 16 MBIT connection!).

Third: Some nice logo in the header, or a more "spiritual" template would be attracting more users. dont get me wrong, i personally does not require any high-end design on websites, but as a site creator for several years, i know that most users do :). if you need help by that, just let me know.

Thanks for the suggestion Georg :)

I don't know really how to solve the activation mail part, Any Ideas regarding that is welcomed :)
But in terms of Design and Logo, I can try to implement it asap :)
Regarding the slow page load: I'm actually using a low cost Hosting, so the slow speed problem is with that, if someone can help me with upgrading or changing the hosting will be really helpful for many people here.

Hi!

Hm, i guess the mail activation part is because of the low cost server. Much spam sites are hosted on those shared servers, so its possible that the ip's are already blacklisted. sure i can help you finding a new host, also with transferring the forum and database there. just let me know what your budget for a hoster is, but i guess adding 1 or 2 bucks a month would be enough to move from a ultra-low-cost-hoster to a "normal"-low-cost-hoster ;)

if you can afford 5 bucks a month i am sure you get a normal "stable" hosting provider which can at least hold a few hundreds of simultaneous active users at this forum :)

happy day :)

Hi Georg,

I was previously hosted my website in a free hosting called "000webhost.com", It was really bad that almost my site was down 2-3hrs a day. I saved some money for almost a year and recently shifted to another hosting company for 10$ an year. The problem is with my financial situation, I earn just 140$ a month. I'm an Indian resident and I'm from a middle class family, so I cannot afford much, yes the 5 bucks is less, but I have to run my family and spending 5 bucks a month is really a hard thing for me right now. Don't mind :)

Right now the domain expiration is also near. Hope someone help me by donating some for the site.

Thanks Georg for your suggestion :)

Okey, can understand the problem...
If you want to, i can host your forum on my server, free of charge of course.
I have several heavy-load websites running, and  there is always a space for smaller projects. If this forum doesnt explode far beyond 10k users or more, you can run it there. Would be happy to help you, especially because we have the same goal ;)
so you only have to pay the domain at your current host, cancel the webspace and redirect it to mine :)

And...:
Ever considered showing some ads on the footer? like google adwords? you can easily implement them,...
will be not much, but probably the domain could be paid with it. ... :)

And.... 2nd:
Donating is impossible without a big, fat donation button ;)

there is always a way ... ;)

all the best, georg

I'm really very happy to see you helping me, I'm really really happy :) :)
I will renew the domain and I will let you know once it is done. So that we can change the hosting.
I don't think we will get 10k users immediately, hope it may happen later and at that time I will surely pay you in return for your kind help :)

I have recently applied for adsense, but got rejected for non-related content. I am applying again and again. I hope it gets approved one day :)

For donation button, I have to make my paypal account to accept donations, I have one account but I don't know how to accept donations. Will shortly set it up.

Thanks for your kind help, Thank you very much :)

May I know your hosting company name ?
Can I get a demo account ?

Glad i can help you :)
Hehe sure, a forum needs some time to grow... and dont worry, i dont want your money, really! :)
I guess you got me wrong, i am not a hosting company. I just own a server on such a company, which costs me 300 bucks a month.
So there is no "account" i can give you. I just set you up an environment on the server (FTP access and a mysql Database). so you have
all the space you need for the forum and the database.
If adsense is rejecting you, there are several other options to try...
Paypal donations are easy, they give you the html code for implementing that in a really easy way.
so if you want the space and the database to try around, just let me know...
perhaps we should discuss this further on emails :)
