Migrating my WordPress site to Amazon Lightsail
Migrating my wordpress site to Amazon Lightsail is super easy! Just follow this link and it is completed in less than 30 mins. I decided to try out Amazon Lightsail, the service to host wordpress site because my website is running too slowly even after I use a Virtual Private Server (VPS) with all the boosters that comes with it. It is either the server or cloudflare that slows the entire website down. It takes a few seconds to load and that is not acceptable. Not many people are going to wait that long for my website to load. That’s why I decided to migrate site to Amazon. Amazon AWS is…
Good Deal
He kept repeating that it is a good deal. I was convinced that it was a good deal. There is a PSG grant for the laptop. The grant is 80% of the sales price, capped at $1500. And I was ready to apply for the grant for the Microsoft Laptop 3 but after reviewing the specs, I decided to go with another company which offers Lenovo Thinkbook 14 with the 80% PSG Grant. Price Both are very good deals with the PSG Grant. For Surface Latop 3, I need to pay only $696.02 after getting the grant. For Thinkpad 14, I have to pay $453.06. Thinkpad 14 is cheaper. Microsoft…
I was not convinced
“In the next 10 mins, someone here will be willing to give me at least $100,000 for this iPhone which costs only $600.” What a bold claim! I thought to myself when I was reading Secret #2 in the Russell’s Dotcom Secret book. But it aroused my curiosity. I wanted to see whether he can convince me that his phone was worth that much when I could buy one myself for just $600. As I read on, I became convinced that it was worth $100,000. In fact, he said that more than 1 person was willing to pay him $750,000 for his phone. Not only was I convinced by him,…

I saw Ulysses promoted Russell Brunson’s new book and thought to myself, “Another book?” Would I be throwing money away since I am not a book reader? You see, I have tried many things after I was “slapped” by Google for my free organic traffic, slowing the signups for my reporting courses. I have attended a 3-days course costing me thousands of dollars by a “Guru” promising that I can have a 4-hour workweek after attending his course. I have tried to revive my traffic by buying some online courses promising that traffic can be restored if I follow his weekly course. I have tried to go into social media…

The planning started 4 months ago
Reclining on a chair in the departure area, waiting for the gate to open. We are on our way for our December holiday. Where shall we go, when shall we go and how long? Those were the questions that needed to be answered so that I could hunt for good deals for air tickets. The later I start, the less choices we have. And of course, the more expensive the air tickets get. So it is important to start planning early, especially when most Singaporeans are flying out for holidays in Dec, the year end school holidays.

What is the difference between domain name and web hosting?
Domain Name is the name that follows after you typed in www. For example, my domain name is jason-khoo.com. This is my online (digital) asset which I owned legally. It is mine as long as I continue to pay the registration fees for it. On average, it cost me about USD 20 per year or less. From a layman perspective, your domain name is like you in the physical world. Web hosting is the place where you build your content. Content could be a website, a blog, vlog, online shop, forum or a combination of the contents listed. Web hosting is like your house. You can choose to stay in…
