Today I am excited to introduce a new version of EchoPic (Version 2.0 for any nerds out there). It is a work in progress, but the major new feature is the ability to create an account. This will allow you mange all your photos easily in one place. A redesigned interface is also part of the new version.
I wanted to get the core features out today and during the next few weeks add more features.
Please let me know if you encounter any bugs or unexpected behavior.

You may have noticed that you have not been able to access EchoPic since the 18th. I apologize for this outage and I am reviewing server logs and talking to the data center that hosts EchoPic’s server to find out why this happened.
This is the first unplanned outage that EchoPic has experienced and I hope its the last. Since this has happened I am working to make EchoPic more stable and reliable.
For whatever reason caused the server to not be accessible, I am very sorry.
A big thank you to everyone who uses EchoPic.
The cheapest hosting web service may spare budget for your internet marketing plan, but it might be deficient in a lot of aspects. Having adsense
marketing is of no use if your web page hosting is not up to the browsers standards. This is why attention should be paid to features like online backup etc when deciding on any one web hosting service. Added benefits like internet phone service do not hurt either.

Our goal at EchoPic is to provide a safe place for people to share their images on the web. We want a website where families can come and feel safe knowing they are not going to be presented with offensive content and where parents can feel secure knowing their children are viewing content that is safe for them.
Sadly with the way the internet is and the amount of junk that is out there it takes man power to moderate the content that comes into EchoPic to keep the site free of pornography.
If you would like to help EchoPic with moderating content please contact me at info@echopic.com. We are looking for people who are willing to donate their time to help keep EchoPic clean and safe for everyone of all ages.
Having backup software for the safety of data is as essential as affiliate marketing for the purpose of search engine marketing. Strategies like ecommerce hosting can be taken care of later, after the domain name registration is done. Ideally webhosting service should provide backup software as a free benefit. SEM is in favor of such a web host.

Today is EchoPic’s 2 month anniversary. I want to say thanks to everyone who has been using EchoPic and helping the service grow. When I launched EchoPic I didn’t expect it to grow like it has. It was just a fun side project. Well today, 2 months later EchoPic has become more than what it was intended to be.
Some Stats:
- Over 100,000 unique visitors a month
- Traffic spikes of up to 30,000 visitors per day
- Almost 10,000 views per day to hot linked images (these are not counted in monthly visitor stats
Now its time for a Red Bull.
Due to wireless internet how, complicated software scripts can be incorporated into the site. Everyone is thinking of web hosting due to the extensive chain of wireless internet providers. There are added options in web hosting services, like for examples, shared web hosting and domain name registration.

An issue with the image uploader on the main page was found and fixed today. The issue would cause the uploader to not forward the user to the image’s edit screen once it had completed uploading. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to anyone this may have affected.
An seo website is ideally a site with updated backup. The strategies of search engine marketing state the importance of web hosting as much as the domain registration itself. A cheap hosting site is not good enough, if it cannot host ip phones.

This may be a pretty big update for some of you out there, I know it is for me. EchoPic now officially supports direct linking to images *and the fireworks explode!*. You can display images from EchoPic on your Website, Blog, MySpace, or anywhere you want! I’ve also added support for submitting to StumbleUpon and Reddit.

The image page has been redesigned to show a scaled version of the image if its very large. The page layout is cleaner and displays more information about the image. Tagging is the biggest new feature that was added. Enjoy!
All wireless internet providers ardently insist upon the importance of back up server. This is the golden rule of internet network marketing too. Due to numerous cheap web hosting servers, there is increased risk of data loss. Before agreeing to any website hosting, the mode of marketing should be decided as well. If affiliate marketing is to be done, the web site design should be adaptable.

EchoPic has hit a new milestone of over 9,000 unique hits in one day and its currently on target to exceed that number today. I didn’t think EchoPic would gain this much traffic so soon!
Excessive wireless internet coverage inadvertly means even more internet marketing online. Getting a cheap web hosting is easy. Furthermore, people go through web design tutorials, thanks to wireless internet, make up their own web site design, and launch the site. They may require professional help while getting internet phone software, but rest they can take care of easily.

I’ve added the ability to add or edit the title of an image and also a delete function if you wish to remove an image you have uploaded to EchoPic. If you provide your email address EchoPic will also email you the links to your image just in case you forget them.
There is a reason why webhosting com is the most preferred hosting service. The internet phone provider always goes through such details before entering into an affiliate program with the site. This is why a cheap hosting service is not always efficient. One should not compromise on windows backup software just because the web site design being offered is too tempting to give up.
