Hi, Jim Faelker here from Mexican Gold…
You need to see what I have just found - WOW!
A new FULL INTERNET UPGRADE technology that is about to upgrade THE ENTIRE INTERNET to Web 2.0 standards and IT’S FREE!
FULL Social Networking functionality on EVERY WEBSITE on the internet … including Mexican Gold … and YOUR site … with a click of a button.
This is going to change the entire Internet OVERNIGHT.
Plus, they are giving away ONE MILLION DOLLARS to spread the word about it - and you can get a share for helping - NO COST!
Check it out at:
I am so happy and very excited to tell you about this wonderful new technology that is about to revolutionize the Internet as we know it!
You’re invited to become part of history-in-the-making.
I know that the website I’m sending you to has some pretty “lofty” claims of web-wide domination, complete saturation, total internet change, etc. … I only wish I could disclose the full details of these technologies to you right now so you would know that these claims are not some hyped up exaggeration to try and sell you something.
But, I can tell you this. It will take less than 5 minutes of reviewing the details of this new technology for you to have NO DOUBT in your mind that this company is going to be the next BIG Internet Technology Company, and you will also understand why this WILL be a full, web-wide upgrade to Web 2.0 Standards.
Many people compare the potential of this company to being the next Google / FaceBook, etc. when in all actuality, it really has even more potential because it is NOT a web site. This is a technology that will affect THE ENTIRE INTERNET. It’s almost scary when you think about how big this will become.
So, with that said, I urge you to click on the link below, review carefully all the information, and then become a member too… membership is FREE!
If you wish, you can then stake your claim too and begin referring as many people as you can to this amazing opportunity.
Think of it this way. What if you had a chance to get in on Amazon, eBay or Google before they were known, you could have made a fortune. That is exactly what you have here today.
This is going to be one of the most exciting companies on the Internet and YOU were lucky enough to find out about it in the VERY beginning!
I want to invite you … as a business or website owner, or web master … to discover some exciting new strategies and tactics for marketing on the Internet with the Mexican Gold Links Machine…
Why the Mexican Gold Links Project
to provide an easy way to get significantly more viewers to your website.
with more incoming theme-related links to your website, you may rank higher in search engine results like Google… and get even more visitors.
How does it work?

your website link information then appears by City and Theme in our electronic Catalogue of websites in Mexico.
websites can be in English or Spanish, or both languages.
other members can now add your website link to their website in just a couple of clicks.
when you add a website link to your links pages on your website by selecting it from our Catalogue, an email is sent automatically to the contact for the other website asking for a link back.
that contact person simply clicks on a special link that appears in your email, and your link is immediately added to his website.
easy, fast, simple… and fun.
we provide some special links pages that you will publish to your website… and then when you choose new links from our Catalogue, they appear automatically and immediately on your links pages.
you or your webmaster can adjust the appearance and format of the links pages to match your website by changing some values in the style.css file we provide.

WordPress has become the most popular ‘blogging’ platform program in the world … and on Tuesday, May 27, 2008, it celebrates it’s 5th birthday.
Go to WordPress > Planet for the latest news of why WordPress is now so popular.
With a WordPress platform for your website, it becomes easier than ever to create and maintain an informative, beautiful website with all the bells and whistles.
And it’s not only people that love these websites, … the search engines do too!
If you’ve struggled to get your old traditional ‘brochure’ website into the main search engines, you want to pay close attention. Google and the gang love websites with new content … and with WordPress you’ll find it so easy to add new content almost daily, or as often as you want. The more often you add new content pages, the more often and faster you get listed in the search results of Google et al.
The RSS News feed feature of WordPress sends your new blog postings out to major information distribution points … and the search engines continuously eat up this new content, spitting out the headlines in their search results. It’s never been easer to get noticed by the search engines.
And the RSS news feeds work ‘hand-in-glove’ with the new social marketing websites, like My Space and FaceBook … and you won’t believe how many people … potential customers for you … hang out on these websites. Before you know it, hoards of new viewers will be visiting your website … and you’ll need to pay more attention than ever to your website … it will be all about sales and making money now.
If you can write an email, you basically can operate a WordPress website … no longer will you need the services of a webmaster to keep your website up-to-date.
Here’s how Mexican Gold will work with you to set up your new WordPress website …
There is some technical stuff that we need to do first before you get involved …
set up the database for WordPress on our website server
load the WordPress program files to your hosting account on our server
load the appropriate start-up Themes, Plug-ins, and Widgets
test everything
At this point we begin working with you to teach you first the basics, and then some of the tricks to really make your new WordPress website perform its magic.
We have videos that will help you to learn fast everything you need first … all the basics that everyone needs to know.
Then we will spend some one-on-one time with you either in person, or by telephone to help you with any custom features you want to add.
Later we will suggest other ebooks, audios, and videos that will turn you into a pro … you’re going to love it!
You’re going to create your own website … your new baby!
In no time you’ll be adding your news stories with pictures, even audio, and if you have a web cam or video camera, even video to your new website.
You can choose from 2 formats that Mexican Gold provides for your WordPress website …
The simplest, but more limiting version is a basic setup as a website right on one of our City Portal websites, or on one of our main websites in the Rentals - Real Estate - Mexico marketing network.
With this option there’s no need to have your own domain name, instead your web address will be something like …
www.infopv.com/Your-Business on INFO Puerto Vallarta
www.rentals-real-estate-puerto-vallarta.com/Your-Business on Rentals - Real Estate - Puerto Vallarta
There are some major advantages of this setup that we will go into in detail
And the monthly hosting fee is only US$15
The disadvantage is that there is a limited number of Themes, Plug-Ins and Widgets available.
By moving your WordPress website to your own domain name on our server, you can choose from an unlimited number of Themes, Plug-ins and Widgets to make your website behave the way you want.
The hosting fee for a WordPress website on your own domain on our server is US$20 per month.
The disadvantage is that you will need to use our tech support services to install these additional files … with an additional minor fee involved. Despite the minor additional cost, we think this is your best option.
If you have experience with hosting issues, you can also set up your own WordPress website on one of the other hosting services that we recommended on Recommended Website Hosting and go wild with anything you want to add yourself.
The disadvantage of course is that Mexican Gold is no longer available as your guide … although you may still want to purchase some of the ebooks and videos that we have available for instruction.
Finally, I want you to check out our Mexican Gold ‘All Included’ Website Package if you want your WordPress website on your own domain on our server. We have added some additional great benefits to this ‘All Included’ Package.
And I think our City Portal Advertising Package is fantastic too … check it out. This one has your WordPress on one of our City Portals.
And finally, finally, if you have an interest in Rentals or Real Estate as an agent, broker, developer, or even a property owner, check out the Mexican Gold Member’s Rentals - Real Estate - Mexico Super Package for your blog on one of these major rental or real estate websites.
If you prefer not to use our Mexican Gold website hosting packages, then we are happy to suggest the following other great hosting services. These hosts provide a wide range of features and are more specifically suited to webmasters and website owners that wish to get their ‘hands dirty’ with all the technical aspects of hosting …
ThirdSphere Hosting
Our personal favorite!
We use ThirdSphere for hosting of all the major
Mexican Gold websites
Mexican-Gold.com
all our City Portal websites
all the websites on the Mexican Gold Rentals - Real Estate - Mexico Internet marketing network
We have been using HostMonster for over a year now for some shared server hosting … and are completely happy.
One caution … we discovered that your account with HostMonster allows you to send only 300 emails per hour … this can be a problem if you are sending newsletters to a large subscriber base from your email account …
WebHostingBuzz provides cheap web hosting to both individuals and businesses who place value on high levels of performance at a competitive price. Their pricing starts at only $3.95/Month and includes 375 GB of disk space, 5,000 GB of bandwidth and one click installers for many popular scripts including blogs, content management systems, shopping carts and more!
If you are a webmaster with tons of websites and looking for our review of Hosting options, go to our page - Recommended Website Hosting
If you are still here and reading, I’ll assume you have your own website and want more information on how Mexican Gold and our hosting options can be of service to you …
First, with Mexican Gold, you don’t have to worry about knowing anything about hosting, CPanels, MX settings, email accounts, publishing, backups, and much, much more … we look after everything for you! …
Experience our ‘White Glove’ treatment
I know that most of our clients are just too busy to get involved with all the nitty-gritty technical stuff … they just want all the benefits of what comes with great website hosting.
So that’s what Mexican Gold provides … everything to make your business successful … without you having to be directly involved.
Of course at first, you will need to provide some basic information about your website, domain registration, present email accounts, etc. … but we keep everything as simple as possible to get you started.
After that you can pretty well forget about all the ‘crazy’, time-consuming aspects of hosting your website.
Our monthly hosting fees vary with the size of your website, and to some extent the amount of traffic you receive … but you will be happy to know that our basic fees vary from a low US$5 to just US$30 per month.
Of course, we will be happy to provide an estimate of our hosting service fees for you.
You should be aware too that since you or you present webmaster will not have access to publishing your own traditional web pages when using our Mexican Gold hosting service, Mexican Gold will become your webmaster … but don’t worry, this is what we have been doing for many of our clients for almost 10 years … with database and WordPress blog websites now being our specialty.
While our web maintenance fees for client websites is US$30 per hour, actual billing is in 10 minute intervals … so, a quick update of your website taking 10 minutes would only cost US$5.
Website hosting for WordPress websites is US$20 per month … this includes the WordPress database and storage of all files. Find out why we recommend WordPress websites now
If there is some aspect of the technical service that Mexican Gold chooses NOT to provide (such as highly animated Flash movie websites), then you, or your webmaster, should select another hosting service from our Recommended Website Hosting page.
If you wish a quote for Mexican Gold hosting for your website, please send us an email with your website URL address. If you are looking at a new website, we highly recommend a WordPress website.
To save money and have a super successful website, see what you get with our Mexican Gold ‘All Included’ Website Package.
Mexican Gold offers you the service of registering your domain name for the first time, and then renewing it as required each year or at the end of a multi-year term.
Our fee is just US$15 per year per domain name.
Why would you want to use our service when you see domain name registrations advertised for as low as $5?
If you are a seasoned web pro and know all about the tricky parts of domain registration, then you don’t need our service … but if you are just getting started … you need our help…
What is a domain name?
An example … for this website, the domain name is mexican-gold.com.
When this domain name, and any domain name, is first registered with a domain registrar, you are asked for not only contact information for the ‘Owner’ or ‘Registrant’, but also for an ‘Administrative’ contact, a ‘Billing’ contact, and a ‘Technical’ contact.
You are also asked for the ‘DNS’ setting of the website … this is a name or DNS code for where the website will ‘exist’ on the Internet. The DNS setting is the piece of the Internet puzzle that allows the viewer to type in a domain name address … http://www.mexican-gold.com … in his browser address window, and then the website magically appears. Get this part wrong, and your website will never be seen by anyone.
When it comes time to renew your domain registration, you are sent a renewal notice from the ‘registrar’. You pay your renewal fee, and your website is ‘active’ for another year. Relatively easy to do, but when you only do this once a year, it can be confusing. And we have found that registrars are continuously ‘updating’ their own website and changing the ‘rules’ on how you must renew … more problems you need to contend with.
Other problems appear when the email for the Registrant or Billing contact that is on the registration is no longer an email address that you commonly use or monitor. That all important billing notice can go ‘nowhere’ or be not noticed until after the due date … and then the domain name registration is canceled by the registrar for non-payment … and you have lost your domain name registration … and your website address! Not good at all!
Your website domain name is a piece of virtual real estate … it can be immensely valuable.
If you are like so many website owners, your website domain registration and renewal each year is a ’strange’ thing that needs doing … something like paying your taxes each year … it needs to be done, but there are so many things that you need to know about to do it right. You have your accountant do your taxes … you should let Mexican Gold look after your website domain registrations … we do it all the time for many other websites … we know what needs to be done … and for $5 - 10 more each year you get peace of mind.
When you become a Member of Mexican Gold, you will be able to assign the registration and renewal of all your domain names to Mexican Gold provided that we also provide the hosting for these websites.
One more thing … check out our Mexican Gold Member Packages … some of them offer the registration and renewal of your website domain name … included at no additional charge in the package price … a smart way for you to save more money.
You’ve decided to move all your email online to Google’s web-based service, Gmail. That’s great!
But what about messages still going to your old email address(es)? You don’t have to notify all your contacts that your email address has changed—again. Gmail is not only an email host, it’s an email client. GMail can get mail from any number of external services and consolidate it all right there in your Gmail inbox.
Here’s how to move your email to Gmail without missing a single message from an existing account.
Receive messages for other addresses in your Gmail inbox
There are two ways to receive email from other addresses in Gmail: using Gmail’s Mail Fetcher feature or by forwarding your other addresses’ mail to Gmail automatically.
Option 1: Set Up Gmail’s POP Mail Fetcher
Most likely your former email provider offers POP (Post Office Protocol) access for retrieving messages for it. Gmail’s Mail Fetcher feature can retrieve those messages via POP and display them in your Inbox alongside messages that come directly to your Gmail address, too. You can fetch email from up to five other email addresses via POP in Gmail.
To use Gmail’s Mail Fetcher, your old email account must offer POP access. Not all free addresses offer POP, but most do. Check the other account’s settings or contact customer support to find out if POP access is available on your non-Gmail account.
You’ll need four settings:
the POP server address,
port,
your username and
password.
Also, if you haven’t already, you’ll need to sign up for a free Gmail account at http://gmail.com.
Once you’re logged into your Gmail account, … configure Mail Fetcher to retrieve messages from your old account. Here’s how…
From the top of any page within Gmail, click Settings.
Click Accounts.
In the Get mail from other accounts section, click Add another mail account.
Enter the full email address of the account you’d like to access, then click Next Step.
Gmail will fill in the username, POP server and port fields when possible, based on the email address, as shown. Enter your password.
If Gmail will be the single place you check mail, uncheck the box labeled “Leave a copy of retrieved messages on the server.” If you want to access the other mail from other software (or if you’re just using Gmail as a backup), do check this box.
You can also set options to use SSL (a secure connection) to retrieve mail (some servers support this, others don’t) and whether or not to label or archive incoming messages.
Once your options are set, click Add Account.
Gmail will issue an error if your username, password or other settings are incorrect.
Once Gmail can fetch messages successfully, it will give you the option to set up a custom From: address. (See the section below for more on that.)
Note: Gmail checks for new messages at different rate, depending on previous mail fetch attempts. You can’t customize the default frequency of mail fetches.
Option 2: Forward messages to Gmail automatically
If your old address doesn’t offer POP access—or you have more than 5 addresses you’d like to consolidate in Gmail—you can set your former address to automatically forward messages to Gmail instead. The exact way to do this will differ depending on your email account, but if your provider offers auto-forwarding, it will most likely be listed in your account options area.
Unfortunately Hotmail does not allow you to auto-forward email to any address outside of Microsoft services.
Write messages from non-Gmail addresses
Now that you’ve got email addressed to several different accounts arriving in your single Gmail inbox, you may want to use those various From: addresses when replying to those messages. For someone who maintains several different online personas - but accesses them all in Gmail - the option to use various From: addresses when sending mail is crucial.
Here’s how to set up multiple From: addresses once you’re logged into Gmail:
Click Settings along the top of any page, and then select the Accounts tab.
Click Add another email address in the Send mail as section.
Enter your full name in the Name field, and the email address you’d like to send messages from in the Email address field.
Click Next Step >> and then click Send Verification to complete the process. Gmail will send a verification message to your other email address to confirm that you’d like to add it to your Gmail account. If you are already receiving this mail in Gmail, it will appear in your Inbox. Click the link in that message, or enter the confirmation code in the Accounts section of your Gmail account, to complete the process.
You can add several possible From: addresses to your Gmail account.
Set one as your default for new messages, and you can also set the From: name and a different reply-to address if you’d like (by clicking “edit info.”)
Once you’ve verified that you’d like to add the address to your account, you can start sending messages using your custom ‘From:’ address. When you click Compose, you can choose the From: address to use from the dropdown list shown.
Note: Your Gmail address will be included in the email headers of your message in the sender field … this is important as it helps to prevent your mail from being marked as spam. Most email clients do not display the sender field, though some versions of Microsoft Outlook may display “From customaddress@domain.com on behalf of yourusername@gmail.com”
For further consolidation of your emails from your desktop:
It is now possible to upload all your old mail from your desktop clients such as Outlook, Outlook Express and ThunderBird using the official Gmail Tool called Google Email Uploader available for download from [mail.google.com]
This is one of the more useful features in GMail. Really helps people who have been around for a long time and have email addresses all over the ‘net.
If you want to use Gmail and Thunderbird interchangeably for all your email accounts, the best thing to do is to set up Gmail to collect email for all your accounts (or set up your custom domain to redirect/forward to a single Gmail address), and then access that single Gmail account in Thunderbird via IMAP.
When you become a member of Mexican Gold, you will have access to the Mexican Gold Store where all our services and products are sold.
Membership is FREE so join now using the Sign-up form at the top of the left menu bar.
As a Member, you can then invite your friends, colleagues, clients, … really anyone … to become a Member of Mexican Gold too.
When they purchase one of our services… and you are enrolled in that service too… your contract for the service will be extended for an extra month. In fact every time they pay to renew their service, your service contract is extended for one more month.
Better yet, if you both are enrolled in more than one of our services, your contract is extended for another month for EACH service when your friend pays for his service.
Twelve month contracts are better
Most of our services are offered with either a six month or twelve month contract. When you have purchased the twelve month contract for a service, and your friend purchases a six month contract, you receive a one month bonus extension of your contract. But when they purchase a twelve month contract, … and you have a twelve month contract, you receive TWO months as a bonus extension on your contract. If you have only a six month contract, and they purchase a twelve month contract, you will receive only ONE bonus month. It pays to have twelve month contracts yourself, so you can enjoy the double bonus when your friends pay for a twelve month contract.
Just think … if you were to invite 12 of your friends to become members, and they signed up for the same services as you, each would count for one extra month (with everyone on six month contracts) … a total of twelve months… You get your service FREE!
Your Bonus Code is the key…
When you enroll as a member, we will provide you with your ‘bonus code’… a unique series of numbers and letters … that you provide to anyone you invite to become a member. On the Member sign up form, they are advised to enter your ‘bonus code’ so that they can receive 10% off all their purchases for the first 30 days. When they register with your ‘bonus code’, they automatically become one of ‘your’ Members, and when they purchase any of our products or services all the credits are automatically added to your account.
It’s easy… All you have to do is invite your friends… and provide them with your ‘bonus code’. Everything else is automatic… and you receive all the credit for as long as you and your friends remain members of Mexican Gold.
This is our way of saying “Thank you for supporting us!” … by simply inviting your friends to do business with us too.
Yes, folks… this is the beginning of it all .. the NEW Mexican Gold… and our new blog!
