I went into town on Thursday afternoon, and I saw this… not sure what was going on nr Poundland / TSB / Astins, but it appeared to require 2x fire trucks on the scene

JD’s Blog Revival Continues
Just done more repairs to the blog by deleting 45 pages of bollocks from the membership list, and reducing it to just 3 memberships (myself and the 2 surviving least bad looking registrations that are probably still iffy)
Want to blog, Can’t Think What to Write About
I’m still very much alive as far as I can tell, and still trying to continue my never ending quest to try make money online.
Unfortunately as you may probably tell if you regularly pop by my online presences I haven’t been whacking stuff up anywhere near the sort of frequency required lately, and things ain’t going quite as brilliantly as I would like.
I’ll try come up with something soon, hopefully. It seems to be getting less and less easy to make money online these days than it used to be as it is without this to slow things down further.
But I have been taking another look at doing Ebay more seriously again.
Last of the Regatta Vids for 2018
It’s the middle of November, and I’ve finally got the last of my video footage (I think it’s the last) from the Whitby Regatta back in August uploaded to my YouTube Channel.
To Revive or Not To Revive
You may have noticed it’s been a wee while since I posted on this thing, having elected instead to tinker with using a blogspot thing instead for personal use + concentrate on a few other online projects the last several years on my other personal domain.
With the old 2005 and 2009 front-ends of the site getting a bit long in the tooth, I’ve got wondering if I should put this wordpress site as the front-end instead to manage the rest of the John-Duck.co.uk website.
Promote your site, join my webrings…
I run a number of webrings on Webring.com – joining one of these is still a great way to promote your website for next to bugger all, and I’ve recently been expanding my portfolio of webrings that I own / run.
Here’s a selection of the best ones…….
- Astronomy Ring
- The British Isles Show
- UK Aviation
- UK Links
- Vauxhall Community
- Kit Cars on the Internet
- Penpals Around the World
- Freshwater Fishing
- Saltwater Fishing
For a full selection of them, visit the “Mission Control Centre” for all my rings HERE.
For a small fee, you can also have your site featured on them.
Get these domain names out of my sight….
You may recall back in December ’07, JD got a smidgeon too carried away snapping up domain names for Domain name investing / Domain name parking purposes…….. and as I’m a bit on the skint side right now as a result, and not quite raking in the amount of money I was hoping for from this, I have this lot available to get shot of (or for “rent”) if anyone’s got a use for them:
http://anti-virus-online.co.uk
http://electricity-online.co.uk
http://scarborough-north-yorkshire.co.uk
Any / all sales shall be handled via SEDO – The World’s leading Domain name market place.
If none of these I have for offer suit, check out: http://domainspage.co.uk/
Menu / blogroll – a change of plan….
I’ve decided to make the “Top 10 Links” bit in the Blogroll menu into a “Favourite websites by other people” and unlimit the number of sites I add to it…. except it seems the silly person who created this WordPress blogging software forgot to include a means to change the name of the categories if you decide to make a decision such as this.
Some new sites from JD…..
In the past month or two, in order to try rake in more advertising dosh from my sites (chance would be a fine thing), I’ve been knocking out a few more websites to try make use of them.
Here’s a couple to keep you going:
BritishAngling.co.uk – A Directory of all the top UK fishing websites in one place, along with a couple of Fishing book Amazon aStores I already had going for one of my existing fishing websites + Ebay Auction listings for fishing items.
JD’s PC Security site – A site to help you keep your PC more secure from the ever increasing annoying little tw*ts threatening your PC’s security & privacy with Viruses, Trojans, Spyware, Malware, Spam, Phishing……… and basically try make some use of some of the Anti-Virus / Anti-Spyware / Anti-Spam / Anti-Scam oriented Domain Names I snapped up since December 2007 (when I got a little carried away, and snapped up over £650’s worth)
.. and still the domain name purchases have continued at unabated pace (guess that’s my bank balance f*cked next month)
Yup, I’ve bought more of the buggers… the latest and last being http://planet-earth.me.uk
I also came up with the idea that http://fly-earth.co.uk / http://flyearth.co.uk might be a good name for a flights website & http://needs-batteries.co.uk a good one for selling electronics / gadgets whether I park the domain or otherwise
I lost count at around 85 – 90, but created a full (and regularly updated) list of them here:
http://www.jduck1979.co.uk/html/domains_-_all.html
Also in addition to SEO services from Submitnet, my http://jdpages.co.uk site now also has a domain name buying facility via SEDO – as well as the original intention of providing small businesses the opportunity to have a simple “web presence” webpage (which to date hasn’t had a single taker-upper, like the rest of my business).
