After buying new set of domains, replacing domains at mysql databases and waiting for internet propagation, finally three of my blogs are now back online but now using INFO domains. Though it is sad to watch my dot COMs get scammed especially two of them has PR1 already and are monetize, I have no choice but to move on. I need to accept the reality that people who scam other people really exist. They don’t care about your hard work in building up these blogs. They will get money from you and make you suffer all the way!
Anyway, my COM domains got terminated at my favorite “paid to blog” company. If you could imagine, I lost a lot of potential income not having these two blogs with them. But they advised me to pursue my plan to have the INFO domains but I needed to wait until these blogs gets indexed and cached again by Google and be granted at least a Page Rank of Zero before they can review it and put back to the system if it passes again.
So guys, I implore your kind hearts, if we are linked by anyway, through blogroll or BC Bloggers, can you please change my URLs to the following:
The Business Minded Mom:
http://www.bizmomph.com is now http://www.bizmomph.info
The Movie Mommy:
http://www.themoviemommy.com is now http://www.themoviemommy.info
Friendship and Smiles:
http://www.friendshipandsmiles.com is now http://www.friendshipandsmiles.info
Remove the dot COMs from your list because it will only give the scammers link love and can make more money if they sell it to others especially it has a Page Rank.
And if you have memes and tags, it would really help me if you tag any or of the new domain names above. In this way, my blogs will get cached in no time. Thank you very much!!
By the way, if you missed my post, about the scammers, please read my post “Got Scammed.” Please takes note of the link to see who they are and be warned!
I am so really sad and mad about what happened to three of my blogs. The domain registrar (actually, the domain reseller) scammed me. For more than four months, my three blogs namely www.bizmomph.com, www.friendshipandsmiles.com and www.themoviemommy.com were all online. It was smooth sailing until one day, it was announced that the domain reseller scammed many of those who have a domain with them.
At first, I didn’t react badly to the situation. I sent them tickets and waited for a reply. I begged for my domains like a dog because I needed them badly as I have monetized them. Unfortunately, the domain reseller is gone. Well, technically they are online but they are not replying to my tickets. It’s been weeks since I waited and waited. When I searched online to find hope in this issue, I was lead to a link that gave me a big slap on my face. The domain registrar where my domains were purchased has been in the business of scamming people for the longest time already and I was one of those who were late to know! I am so MAD at them! They don’t value people’s hard work. They should be called instant destroy! Why would they scam people?!
Now, two of my domains that were lost are already monetized at my favorite paid to blog company. My problems is, since I can no longer get my domains since dispute is costly, I don’t know what to do. My contents are still OK since my hosting is still online. I can easily transfer the database to the new domains but would they allow that? The thought of losing a huge part of my income is so depressing. I can’t take it. 
Lesson learned: Don't get attracted by FREE domains or cheap domain from untrusted domain registrars. Bad for business!!
