Well, just about everyone who is trying to make money on the internet uses email to contact prospective customers etc, usually via an email newsletter. These newsletters are usually operated via a list of double opt-in readers. Occasionally people don’t use double opt-in lists and get the odd complaint from someone who has either been signed up by a ‘friend’ or who has ‘forgotten’ that they signed themselves up (I can certainly confirm the latter has happened with me!)

Most SPAM complaints can be resolved very quickly but if you host with GoDaddy you may want to think twice as it appears they are now charging US$200/£100 to ‘investigate’ any complaints they receive.

I found this nugget of information out while I was reading the Vertical Response blog, It stated that

GoDaddy will now charge customers $200 to “manage” their complaints. Even worse is that if the customer wants to then leave them and transfer their domains to another registrar they can’t do it until they pay GoDaddy $75!

In previous entries I’ve mentioned the two ways in which you can make money. You can earn it or you can save it. People often overlook the money they can make by saving a little here and there, usually more than the fewer lump sums that are earnings. However savings of a few pennies, which don’t sound like a lot, soon register when you see them as a lump sum of £6pm.

What am I talking about? Telephoning abroad. There are a myriad of different schemes and options being offered by the major telecom companies, then there are the on-line discount operators and the trusty phone cards you buy from the corner shop and of course if you’re fortunate enough to have most of your contacts PC enabled, you might have Skype and really paying pennies, if anything at all!

By looking away from your main supplier you will nearly always find an on-line supplier who will be able to route your call via their network for a fraction of the price. An example of such a site is Selfless Mind Calls which enables UK callers to make International phone calls from landlines and mobile phones from only 1p per minute. These companies all work to tight margins so the prices seldom vary between one and another, you may be lucky and find your destination is a penny or two cheaper at one, in which case that will probably decide which one you use.

Whilst those prices are great, they are only of use to people based in the UK. So, whether you are a UK citizen travelling overseas or you permanently live outside the UK, what can you do to access cheap international calls? The answer is to be found in pre-paid international phone cards. Similar to the plastic ones your corner shop sells, these are their on-line brothers. The beauty of the internet sites is they allow you to do all the searching at the click of a mouse and you get up to the minute rates. One such site is Cheapo Phone Cards.
