The one that&#8217;s been bugging me most is that I&#8217;ve had a few problems recently trying to get a domain name transferred to me! It&#8217;s a long story, but although I always controlled it I didn&#8217;t actually own it. There was no ill-will or deliberate obfuscation on the part of the previous registrant. It was just messy getting ownership changed.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve had similar problems in the past with other domains that I controlled but didn&#8217;t actually own, and then needed to transfer them <em>to <\/em>the people who owned them. It was never straightforward. Why can&#8217;t it be simpler?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I finally got control <em>and <\/em>ownership, so all&#8217;s well.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, I&#8217;ve had quite a few people asking how to set up blogs and incorporate GoogleAds of late. I might do a tutorial at some stage if there&#8217;s enough interest. GoogleAds can generate significant income if you get enough hits on your websites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My pupil who passed her test this week said that it had been the best week of her life &#8211; and she cited a few things that had happened or were going to happen, like getting a pay rise and doing well in an exam she&#8217;d just taken.
