Even since GoDaddy went sour and started offering crappy support for their Domain names I ditched them. I found a smaller Domain Name Company and made sure they were located in the USA, somewhere I could trust people could speak english and take care of my domains.

That was 2 years ago and I’ve hosted all my clients and myself with DynaDot.com, They’re a fantastic Domain Name company and I love them so far. Recently they re-designed their website and control panel, the security encryping passwords and storing all my information is protected. I host 7 Domains there myself, and an additional 14 with other persons.

The DNS propegates quite quickly and can be a matter of minuets to 20-30 minuets for the DNS to latch on to my IP addresses / custom name servers with Host Gator / cPanel – which I admit has become quite bigger and some stores have reported they felt increased security with other hosts suchas EWDHosting.com

I feel quite good with both Host Gator and EWD, for me personally HostGator’s Reseller Hosting package is quite appealing to my needs. EWD has excellent support.

With DynaDot.com I’ve always been able to call them up if I’ve had a question of trouble locating a specific feature, their service and customer support are A+.

Websites, Websites, More Websites…

I’d say I’m building a community or a empire of sites… I have so many good ideas but constrained time. Tonight I was comprehending building a new type of Forum Software using AJAX that would crush vBulletin and IPB, the irony is that modular based AJAX forum software would kill all of the competitors easily.

LorenDias.com still could use a bit of work here and there ironing out all the details, but overall its looking nice.

Skateverse.com has been revamped again and again and is my most proud creation to date – I look forward to completing it.

ZaZaGallery.com is coming along quite nicely and more recently I’ve ironed out some bugs here and there, they’ve finally got their Favicon and we’re planning on what might be a good revamp of features including a possible new Cropping feature soon.

DiasArt.com and Dias.Pro are in the Design Phase and getting ready to go online with a themed out design and basic portfolio hopefully sooner than later.

A T-Shirt Project Website I’m working on is looking Rad and I cant wait to post an online version and announce the name once it’s cleared. It uses Grey-tones.

Aside from these I have clients with ongoing support necessary for their website’s maintenance.

I look forward to Completing these websites and getting the ball rolling on all these exciting things I’ve got going on right now.

Updates 2 Hugh’s ZaZaGallery.com are awsome and looking amazing as usual.

I’m totally stoked about Skateverse.com I threw in the new header and Background and the Photoshop changes are gonna be way sexy. It’s on its way I can’t wait 2 throw in the new AJAX jQuery Scripts.

The other day I shot video footage @ Healdsburg Skatepark and Santa Rosa. Au is becoming a Cinamatographer, we got like 80 short clips and are getting ready 2 do a music video of some kind. I cant wait 2 plug in the HD Video into Skateverse.com and upload the 1700 photos I got, I hope 2 get on it soon.

Today I got HD Video of Sebastopol Skatepark – it’s awsome and I look forward to sharing it with all of you very soon!

Skating was amazing and I got video of some cool tricks like my Fake 720, and some basic grinds / one wheeling.

I’m excited to free up my time to complete a draft of Skateverse.com to go live. At this moment we have about 16-18 skateparks and I hope to get HD Video of the parks also in order to offer unique Skateverse.com exclusive content. I feel it’s all about the content to keep people around.

More updates very soon!

It’s been a busy week and the furnace has been baking up some fresh new websites.

I completed a number of updates / upgrades to Advanced Hyperbaric Recovery’s new website – ImproveHealing.com

Also I’ve completed revamping a large portion of Dias & Sons Construction with new Content and awsome Picasa and Slideshow Plugins. I’ve implemented a identical blog page to my personal site and Skateverse, and the contact page needs a contact form still as well as Photos diving the portfolio and photos + videos for the Services Page. I need to add a Free Estimates box to the blog as well, or discount offer.

Aside from this I’ve completed a draft for Aurora’s personal art portfolio website, it’s extreemly elegant and attractive – I can’t wait to launch it live.

Aside from this I have the new “Connect” feature for LorenDias.com that I’m adding very soon, It’s 1/2 complete at this moment.

Computer Mechanic will soon be landed on a theme similar to this one, simple and business-appropriate, I look forward to starting and completing that project soon also.

Next COULD be the implementation of the start-page for ParadiseRealty.pro that I’ve been holding on.

After I complete these things I’m looking forwarding to working on Skateverse.com again and hammering things together :)

I’ve upgraded the theme on LorenDias.com to better suite the content and future of my personal blog / website. Currently plans are to showcase my personal services indrectly likely through Dias.pro.

Also, the Skating Photos Element of my website is outgrowing this place – which is why it’s appropriate for me to start the migration to Skateverse.com.

Currently the website is password protected, however soon It’ll be ready to go online. Aurora and I have spent nearly 100 hours building it out and getting things ready, so far we’ve canvased santa rosa to Sacramento with 17 different skateparks. Everything will readying to completion soon, and I can’t wait to showcase my personal art and possible poetry soon.

We’re going around and taking HD Video of Skateparks, I hope to experiment with HD Skating Videos also…

Hi! We now have a total of 8 skateparks from northern california. We’ve just added 4 new Skateparks to the Skateverse Gallery.

Please welcome:
East Washington Skatepark, Petaluma, Northern California
Hamilton Skatepark, Novato, Northern California
McInnis Skatepark, San Rafael, Northern California
Ramp Rats, Petaluma, Northern California

I’m very excited to bring you these photos and the other day I got to explore Sacramento & checkout their indoor “28Th And B Skate Park” and “La Sierra Skate Park” which were a blast! I’d love to bring you photos although it’s a drag that I forgot my camera that day & it might be some time before I re-visit them to snap some new shots.

I’m taking requests from here on out – next up I might go by Sonoma Skate Park & (x) the last local park off the list. Enjoy!

Phoenix Website Upgrade

Never before has my homepage looked this good and been this useful. I’m very happy with the transition to the new theme and integrating background elements and branding this website to be useful.

I’ve created the four main category pages and will possibly integrate drop-down menus as time allows. I positioned the Subsribe RSS Icon, and Share / Bookmark Icons and am considering what I’ll use that space for – possibly social media links to digg twitter…etc to share my website with the world.

I’m excited to get ready the tearing down of DiasWebWorks.com and integrating it fully into this website, my reasons are very simple – to keep things simple and lessen confusion with contract invoices. Aside from that I’d much rather not get the ficticious business name in order to do business in the future.

Aside from this everything is going along very smoothly and I hope to integrate some cool features, and portfolio abilities into the site to give everyone a picture of the work that I do.

If you see anything and have a suggestion or two – I’d be happy to listen :)
