When they say adding a CNAME with the destination "ghs.google.com" will point to google, what does that mean? Under what conditions would I want to great that CNAME?
CNAME is a pseudo-name for a static variable. It enhances portability and increases the compiling process.
I am involved in a niche local news website. I am considering submitting it to Google News. Is there any reason not to? Anyone have any experiences that they want to share?
p.s. The news is updated with about 20 articles weekly.
cyberdroid: news.google.com – yes, they are.
I think Google is a search engine, to get top positions business have to pay a lot of money, they are not into the news business..☺
I am looking for some help. I already have the equipment for the business, I can do every type of welding, along with any type of fabrication. I have been working in the welding feild for over 10 years.
So, I have the expreiance and I have the drive it takes to work towards growing a small business. My question is how can I get steady business coming in? I don't have alot of money, so i can't really advertise all that much, I tried getting the word out (word of mouth), by making things for friends and other small businesses, but it never gave me steady business.
So again, heres my questions,
How can I go about getting a steady flow of customers?
How can I grow this business into something more than just a garage business, with out taking tens of thousands of dollars out for a business loan?
Are there any websites out there that could also help me with these question?
Hi there, i have found a website with detailed info on starting a small business. I hope u find it usefull

It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK – lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.
Nonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov – these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.
Even if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants — all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same – hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.
Even SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html
"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."
Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT – Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program
Grants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs
For private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.
