Recently I’ve had challenges with my bills that are paid automatically online through a credit card. It’s becoming a common occurrence over the past couple of months.

At first I thought the problem was with the specific company which was attempting to process my billing. Each month the number of challenges with processing my payment has increased. Since I do a lot of work online and have a bunch of different accounts from auto responders, hosting, video posting services and all my personal bills that are processed automatically it has become a little frustrating.

I felt that it was not a coincidence that it was happening with several different accounts, I decided to contact my bank to see if there was a challenge there.

My bank gave me a really good explanation of what the problem was. Banks are tightening up on internet billing preferences such as addresses, phone numbers, zip codes, etc. These fields are much more sensitive when it comes to processing online payments. I simply had to make sure that my information in my accounts was very detailed. It even recognizes the street number on my address.

So, this is a good thing now that I have realized what’s going on. The security measures that the banks are taking to protect us are very advanced and do a great job at protecting us from fraud.

On of the things I am excited about with the launch of this new site is my opportunity to share all of my experiences with internet marketing, blogging, web developing, social bookmarking, etc.

I was quite a novice at this just over a year ago, but have really spent a lot of time learning, implementing and testing. I had some great successes and some big failures in these areas.

So what specifically are some things I will discuss? Here is a rundown…

1. Blogging in general
2. Web 2.0
3. Wordpress and all things related!
4. Social Networking on the internet
5. Entrecard
6. Stumple Upon
7. Google Adsense
8. Affiliate Marketing
9. Kontera Text Links
10. Chitika E Mini Malls
11. Ebooks
12. Graphic Design
13. Forums
14. Who is really successful?

These are just some examples off the top of my head. I plan to continue writing about these items and others as I continue on my internet journey! So, stick around!
