Alright, Alright, So I got the tag line from the Dark Night movie but hey if it works run with it right? People are so worried about being classified as a certain type of writer or blogger, I really don’t understand what the big deal is.

If your good at something why not let that be your speciality? I mean here at IBB we are dedicated to teaching you how to make money online while providing free domain and blogging tips for hundreds of different reasons.

We have even touched on SEO a couple times and word press to boot. Yet our name is still known for MMO and Blogging mainly. Why is that? Simple! We wanted it to be…

I guess what I am trying to say is this, if you want to be a certain type of blogger or person then perhaps you should start thinking like what your wanting to be in order for the transition to take affect in your daily routine.

Ever heard the saying “Fake it till you Make it?” the same principle applies to this. If you can stay stead fast and keep on keeping on eventually you will get to where and what you want to be all about with your blogging.

Don’t let others distract or discourage you simply because they have an opinion. Its time to shake loose all those people who drag you down and find a new way, your way a better way!

Be sure and comment below if you think your doing that now or if you don’t know how to get started?

As I am sure most of you know my domains were taken from me about a week and a half ago and IBB was down for over a week while we waited for GoDaddy to get the names back for us.
In todays post I want to talk about how it happened a little bit and then show you what I learned out of this whole ordeal so that hopefully this never happens to you because believe me nobody wants to go through this so do what it takes now to make sure your safe and secure!

Since I lost my domains I want to talk about that a little bit, somehow this person got a keylogger onto my pc and then stole my GoDaddy account info and transferred all the domains out to another GoDaddy account.

You can read the whole build up story at my personal ShannonLilly blog if you wish…

Basically I am going to continue the story here…

As it all comes down I did finally get nearly all my important domains back (still waiting on 4 of them) but other then that I got my fathers site, IBB and Bz back as well as POB which is another great source for mmo / blogging tips!

Through the whole proccess I learned one very important thing and that one thing is… MAKE SURE YOUR SECURE SO THIS DOESNT HAPPEN TO YOU!

I never thought it would happen to me and I was on the net 10+ years never having a problem like this. With that said I have learned my lesson and I won’t be making that mistake again for the rest of my life. If something like this ever happens again it won’t be because of anything I did not do I assure you!

So first things first, make sure you have the following done and be sure to print this list out if your note sure so you can check em off. Its the same list I talked about on Gnets Blueverse blog but they are the vital things you need if you want to be secure. 

1. Make sure you use different passwords for every site you’re a member of, that includes GoDaddy and any other registrar out there. Do it just to be safe! 
2. Secondly make sure you buy privacy policy / the domain ownership  secure feature on all your important domains. Nearly every registrar has it and its impossible to hack I hear without doing tons of ground work that nobody is going to take the time to do!
3. Install the best security / antivirus program available, second best simply won’t do if you want to be secure. I am now using ESet NOD32 and it’s rated the best around! It is expensive but worth it I assure you!
4. Reformat your pc leaving nothing left on it, just be sure to put the files which you have backed up back on the machine. This way no hidden KeyLoggers can be found and or create future leaks.

The list is small and simple but thats all you really have to do, in fact if I had done #3 6 months ago none of this would have happened to me. Yes I accept full responsibility because it was my job to make sure that all our pcs had such programs on them that actually work. I didn’t and because of it I lost a couple hundred dollars myself and who knows how much damage it has done to my fathers business, praying for none but you never know.

Well that will just about sum things up for today, thanks once again all for sticking with me and watch out for more great tips to stay secure and also to improve your blogging!

Hello everyone!

What can I say other then phew its good to be back, first off I want to apologize to everyone who visited the site and saw it was Gone! I also want to apologize to my advertisers but not to worry your ads will stay up your time + the amount of time we were down to make up for things.

As to the future of IBB I plan on running it till I simply cannot anymore, IBB is my baby first and foremost out of all my sites and I love keeping you all updated on what I am doing and how we are doing it!

Before this catstrophe of losing our domains happened we were on a record setting pace to making money online this month. Its a little late in the month to break any old records now but we will be posting our earnings later on at the start of next month as we always have!

I also want to thank all my rss readers for sticking with me while we were down! I know it was hard and some of you probably found my temp blog at ShannonLilly.com

Well this is just a quick update to let you all know that I am back, and please note that I will get back to posting daily tomorrow as if nothing had ever happened!

Also watch out for some guest posts on other blogs to spark interest in IBB back up like it was! Thanks once again and God Bless you all!
