Big Guys. Big Reviews. Big Life.
Tommy on February 15, 2018In the last two installments of Freelance Marketplaces, we talked about what you can get for five dollars, and some of the dangers that lie ahead in your journey to find a good freelancer through Fiverr and other freelance marketplaces. Even though there are some things you have to deal with, there are still good folks…
Read More Tommy on February 12, 2018If you run a website, you have probably heard of securing your website with SSL/HTTPS as opposed to just HTTP. From a high level, this would mean that when folks navigate to your site, they use https://<yoursite> instead of http://<yoursite>. You've possibly also read that you don't need to bother with a secure website if…
Read More Tommy on February 9, 2018The Big Guy shop is open! We're a little slim on designs at the moment, but if you have any thoughts, shoot them my way. Also, anyone who is interested in winning a WyzeCam may want to join up on the mailing list for giveaway promotion we'll have next week surrounding the store and a…
Read More Tommy on February 8, 2018In the first post on Freelance Marketplaces, I wrote little about how the buying and selling process work on Fiverr and if you should reasonably expect good, quality work for five dollars (spoiler: no). Fiverr is a very robust platform, but with the addition of the gig extras and custom orders paired with the sheer number of people…
Read More Tommy on February 1, 2018This one is going to be released in a few parts as I am trying to keep from posting novels every time I post something like I did in Big Hosting Problems. I've talked about Fiverr before. In Big Guy on Fiverr, I had someone from Fiverr write on what it is like working through Fiverr. I…

Damien on January 23, 2018First off, I want to start this post off as an apology to my readers, and the site. I've been remiss with my posting for a few weeks now, and I have no one to blame but myself. The truth is that I went all out when we were getting the site started, and I…
Read More Tommy on January 18, 2018You may recall when we first got setup, we were using Namecheap, and things were great. Well, after a while, we started having issues with their managed WordPress service, EasyWP. After we had suffered enough outages with them, we moved to Dreamhost on the recommendation of Big Guy Damien. You may remember the Big Guy New Digs post…
Read More Damien on January 8, 2018I am convinced that the most common abusive relationship is the one between a consumer and a technology company. Here's my take on GoDaddy. Need support? Here's a sale pitch. I recently had a problem. CloudFlare was dealing with some pretty intense DDOS action, and my podcast's website (alansmitheereview.com) was knocked out. The nameservers weren't…
Read More Tommy on January 5, 2018Today on Big Blogiverse, I'm actually going to introduce two blogs. Both of these are run by Dnyanesh Bodhe, who is a behavioral economist among many other things. In the first of his blogs, Dnyanesh Bodhe takes on a more professional form where he writes about many of his passions, including Design Thinking, Innovation, and…
