Launch followed by Crash CapitalCents

Note: I have never launched a website before, when I launched CapitalCents, I was also in the process of making this fine site, which I am quite found of. Lots of lessons were learned...

The road was long windy and full of pot holes but we kicked out a product at CapitalCents. I secured someone to host my website, I had my Indian crew load the site on to the hosts server. I knew I was in trouble when they couldn't make it work at www.CapitalCents.com and instead tried to pull one over by using www.iamokruok.com/capitalcents! What in the hell was all I could think, thankfully my hosting company was also a trusted friend and he fixed it in less than 5 minutes. Finally the site we had worked and I had spent so much time and money on was up.

I thought hay great idea let me install Google Adsense so I can monetize my site! Data installed followed by.... boom boom crash, well not exactly. I didn't even know some of the MOST important pieces of the puzzle were broken until my friend was cruising around the site and said "Hay did you know your calculators were broken?", to which I went into panic mode. I'm really not even sure the Adsense data corrupted the site but my nice Indian friends decided not to fix the site. So anyone know a good developer? I guess I need to find someone else to fix it so I can try to make the site work.

I'll follow up with more info on CapitalCents as I go forward but I'd like to talk about some topics which have nothing to do with my other website. Frankly, with work, school, my HOA president duties, working on a logo for this site and that other website, I'll let it sit for awhile. Probably not a good move but I need to pick my battles better.

If there is anything major I missed and someone wants to hear about it leave me a comment. Since I don't know how to make email work on this thing yet, but I will one day.
