This year, I decided to ditch GoDaddy’s default DNS setup. Why? Because their limitations were slowing us down — and in some cases, costing us money and stability. If you're building digital income streams or launching a content site, here's why it's time to rethink how (and where) your domain lives. 🚫 The GoDaddy Problem I registered our domain aimomlab.com through GoDaddy, thinking it would be a straightforward experience. But when tried to connect it to our Google Blogger site , I hit wall after wall: They only allowed 1 A record (Blogger needs 4 for stability) They tried to upsell us on Premium DNS ($50/year) The site broke every time we tried to configure it correctly Support gave con...

Is AdSense really too much work for your return on time and investment?

Is AdSense really too much work for your return on time and investment? How much can you make with AdSense? I haven't made a single dollar yet after 3 months of trying to get AdSense Approvals. Here's why: Really, is it worth it - is the juice worth the squeeze on this effort. Maybe.
