UnBeatable Prices in the UK
Apr 23rd
This is a somewhat unusual review request for my blog but for my UK readers, this might be of use to you. I guess I don’t relate mostly because most of the websites that have the Discount Codes are mentioning the US based stores and websites however, now that I got this review, I wondered if there are any other such sites for other countries.
Either way, Unbeatable.co.uk, which has a very awesome domain name by the way, offers exactly that. They offer coupon codes as well as they allow customers to search products and compare prices of items that they are looking to purchase. Furthermore, you can look up reviews for the product as well.
As a test, I looked up a Sony Camera and sure enough, it brought up a list of prices but it also brought up ranking stars that shows how the camera ranks overall. It was a pretty nifty looking search because it gave a brief overview of the specs, the price, the rating and a small image of the item. I think the graphics on the site as well as the overall layout of the website as well as the search results page looks pretty clean and nice.
I think this is a decent website, although it may not be as unique, if youre interested, then browse over and check it out!
Already Hosting For You!
Mar 24th
Getting good hosting now has become somewhat of an issue specially because most of the appeal nowdays with a good web hosting company is the lower price and maybe thats what your looking for. The $9.94 a year deals with a free domain sound nice and all but really, how good is the customer service and basically the hosting service that youre getting?
I have been with 1&1 for a while and even though lots of people express problems with them, I don’t seem to find an issue. I have 4 domains hosted with them and a home business hosting plan and haven’t had issues at all. They’ve handled all types of traffic for me. But, what if you dont have a host and only want the best hosting service? at the best comparable rates? Well, AlreadyHosting.com is a website that I’ve talked about before but they provide you just that. They tell you how good a host is, they rate them, tell you about their service and even tell you the price. So you can go to one website and get all that information, for free.
They even have coupons available so if you find a hosting provider you like, you can search for coupons to increase your savings more. To give you an idea, on my first year of hosting, I saved 50% with the use of a coupon. They even have a list of free WordPress themes and domains that support WordPress if you’re looking to start up a blog. They even have hosts separated out by category – for example, best cheap hosting, but hosts for chuch’s, e-commerce, green hosting, etc.
When I started hunting for my host back in 2006, I went to a website similar to AlreadyHosting.com and although most people don’t care for what such websites say, they even incorporate actual user reviews and everyone knows that youre much quicker in writing a bad review, than a good one. So, why not hear from actual customers themselves? The choice is yours!
Free Domains Are Not A Thing Of The Past
Feb 28th
Everyone has thought about buying that new domain name to improve that business but what if someone comes up to you and tells you that its possible for you to get that domain name, specially for free. Believe it or not, a lot of hosting packages do offer free domains. A hosting package like mine comes with 2 free domains and theres quite a few others that you get a free domain if you buy a hosting package. Now, hosting packages dont have to be expensive and thats where alreadyhosting.com is stepping in to offer you your Free Domain Name.
Their domain name page lists hosts such as Bluehost, Hhost Monster, WebHostingPad. Not only are hosting companies listed but so is a list of their features such as unlimited domain hosting, free domain name, etc. Their prices are also listed and some start at as low as $1.99 a month with a free domain. The domain page also lists a review of the host as well as an overall rating which is quite a good feature.
The page also provides some basic info for new users – such as the difference between a domain and hosting and how you can get a free domain. Some websites lately charge about $10 for a domain. If you pay $2 per month for hosting, thats $24 a year – out of which $10 is for the domain. Your overall savings then, are about 30% which is quite tremendous. It doesn’t seem like much now, but when your hosting bills are in the $100′s and you host several domains, it does make a huge difference – it does so for me atleast.
Well, check out the link and give me your feedback on some of these hosts so that I can see if my readers use any of these services and what they think of them.
Remanufactured Ink Catridges? More Savings!
Feb 28th
Everybody has heard of HP and maybe once in your lifetime, you have owned an HP Printer this means that you generally purchase HP Ink Cartridges. I have an HP Photosmart 7260 Printer and I do need quite a bit of ink. Since my printer is a bit older, I do not like buying ink for it. Why you ask? Because ink costs about $50 for both black and color compared to the $100 i paid for the printer a while ago. Sometimes, it doesn’t seem worth it but buying a new printer inst the best solution either.
So what should you do? Well, have you heard of re-manufactured ink cartridges? Basically, its an easy way to go green and buy ink cartridges that have been cleaned and tested and even repaired, if needed. The cartridges work just fine and cost quite a bit less as well and InnkCartridges.com is a very reliable website to buy your re-manufactured cartridges from. Even if youre not sold on the idea, you can actually buy OEM cartridges from them too and their prices are probably the lowest ive seen around.
Take a look at this comparison
Price I paid at Best Buy for black ink : $24.99
Re manufactured Ink price $11.95
OEM ink cartridge $22.99
And currently, they have 10% off with the coupon code “WINTERTEN” and the prices get even lower! If youre looking for HP Ink Cartridges then you should definitely visit InkCartridges.com
Shopping Around with UrbanStone
Jan 13th
Recently, I came across a very interesting review request that was actually through Twitter. Interestingly enough, the website is called UrbanStone.co.uk which offers its readers a variety of shopping deals and allows them to compare shopping prices – much like some of the website we use here in the States.
The way the website works is quite interesting, it pulls prices of an item that you select and runs it through a variety of websites to make sure that the price you pay, is indeed the lowest price possible. For example, if I am looking for a Nintendo Wii I can just type in the search box and it brings up a variety of results.
What was interesting was that the results showed not only the one color of the Wii but the other color as a separate item – just in case my search was not as specific. Also, it provides reviews of the product that you may be looking for which is powered through Epinions.com which means that all you have to do to find the best prices and any related reviews is go to one website. The prices for the Wii ranged from 140 pounds to 400 pounds but was found in over 58 stores. Upon clicking the item you get a little description of what you will be purchasing, from what website the item will be purchased and its related price.
You can look up everything from electronics such as blu-ray players to home appliances such as freezers. If you’re like me then you’d probably want to make sure that instead of spending your money frivolously, taking the time to do the research can lead to tremendous savings and this website is just one more way to do just that. Overall, the website is well laid out and quite easy to use and for those in the UK, this might be just another way to find the best prices and reviews for products you want to purchase!
