Re: How to fall into MONEY!!!
Quote:
Doug Phil,Eve, Ken and all sowpubbers. I only know one way to get the user ID and Password. It is the way I did it to get the info for my customers. When you have your back against the wall you have to find a work around to complete the order to get paid. So the secret I reveal here is NO Secret it is just how I did it. No Black Hat needed. Go to betterwhois.com ( there are a number of sites that have whois and if one does not give you the following info try another) and find the owner of the domain name. That is the owner of the URL. If the owner is the name of the business owner and not the web designer your'e good to go. But if the name is anything other then the business/owner all is not lost. See below. Now you have to find the Hosting company. Some times it is listed and other times it is not. If it is not listed then go down until you find the DNS information (Domain Name Servers) Copy the DNS into Google search box and it will tell you what hosting uses that server. Here is what happens most of the time when the web designer sets up an account. He gives the business owner the user name and password for the Domain Name so the owner OWNS the URL. Most business owners know enough to ask for the log-in for their URL registeur. But then the web designer sets up hosting with a different user name and/or Password. So the business owner THINKS he owns the complete domain but can not get into the hosting account. That means he can not make changes or FTP any files. There are some good reasons for this as far as the web designer goes. 1. He controls the site. 2. He keeps the owner and others from messing up his files. But when it goes wrong with the web designer you need the user ID and password of the hosting to change files or ftp files. Some times the most simple way will get you what you need. I found out (by calling) that most hosting companies have a way to transfer the Domain name to the owner of the business with PROOF of ownership. So like Godaddy ( which a lot of people use both for registering the URL AND use for the hosting) what the owner of the business has to do is fill out a form and submit proof of ID with a photo ID like a license. Then the hosting company will verify the info and will give the business owner the FTP infomation. Takes a day or two. That is the only way I know and I'm sure there are other ways some more knowledgable people then me can give you. If any one here knows please share IF White Hat. *****Now, how can we find the sites that have problems with their web designer? I could check to see if there have been any changes in the last 3 months in sites but that takes time. If no changes in last 3 months then they could be a good prospect for our service. Things move fast on the web and no changes in 3 months is not a good sign for their website. Of course they could have a static page or pages and we would waste our time doing it this way. We could also set up a website that targets the business owners with this problem. I think I will research some keywords to see if I can make money from the website with this program. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. There are some other twists and turns I have learned over the last couple of weeks and when I have a better system I might write a report on this. Of course I won't forget my friends on SowPub. Best of success, Skip Rosell |
