Nowadays many companies are offering their web hosting services. Most of these companies offer both web site design and hosting services. Some companies only sell domains and hosting. These companies also offer network marketing services with their hosting packages. For transactions on these websites people must have good wireless internet connection as they have to credit bank accounts for payments. People having basic MCSE training can do it in a better way.

    Very good list, I use them all! Couple of notes:
    - Design-feed is amazing MUST-HAVE!
    - Smashing Magazine is loosing its quality lately.

  2. Oli says:

    Agreed about Smashing Magazine, its still a great resource to have though. Its hard to think up new subjects every day but they do a good job of it!

  3. Hello!
    Thank you for posting Type for you in this list, among so many great sites! :) And congratulations on your own, it´s excelent!

  4. Dustin says:

    Also agree about Smashing Magazine. Apparently they got banned by Digg.com, read their last article.

  5. Vernon says:

    Great list! I’ve just recently (over the past few months) came across Smashing Magazine and will say that it’s become one of my favorite stopping places.

    Design Meltdown is a new one to me. Thanks for pointing it out! Seems like I do so much work on the web that I rarely get a chance to actually browse the web.

    Thanks again!

  6. Andy Ford says:

    I’d also throw in SitePoint.com and Webmaster-Talk.com

  7. Oli says:

    I might do a top10 web design forums next, I just threw in Designerstalk.com to cover forums for now.

  8. designerstalk and ping mag look very nice!

  9. TOP says:

    9rules is probably the top best of the group but I suppose you didn’t put them in order of importance. Good compilatin!
    Saludos

  10. PixyTraffic says:

    Great post most of this sites are very popular between designers.

  11. Oli says:

    TOP - no they’re not in any particular order.

  12. Whiteboards says:

    Wow, I must really be out of the loop. I am only familiar with 4 out of the 10 sites. I looks like I have a lot to do this weekend. It seems impossible to keep on top of the web trends. thanks.

  13. Good list, also SEoMOz.org for seo stuff, and the usual technoratti.com or delicious for just keep ahead with the blogosphere

  14. Eric S. says:

    ALA is so much of a no-brainer, I don’t think it should even be on a list. It’s like when you say you speak fluent English, it’s assumed you also can say your ABCs. There isn’t an article on there that hasn’t sparked me to do something new and better.

    And I’d add in:
    * webworkerdaily.com
    * 456BereaStreet
    * Sifry’s Alerts (www.sifry.com/alerts/) - home of those great Technorati blog stats reports

  15. Andre says:

    I’m shocked that you failed to mention that Designers Talk is run by the same company as this site. Now that’s not good disclosure, is it?

  16. Tarellel says:

    As being a member of DesignersTalk for sometime, I can easily say, it is one of the best resources and visually pleasing, communities you can find.

  17. Oli says:

    Andre, you’re right - I only thought afterwords that I should have disclosed that.

  18. Chris says:

    Add One, the grandfather site for design,

    http://styleboost.com

  19. sam says:

    I found great help at http://www.allsyntax.com for programming articles and code samples.

  20. MomKicker says:

  21. VENITI AICI IN SITEUL MEU.UBITI SHAMAN KING.

  22. Fredo says:

    http://design-feed.net/ is a fantastic find! A great place to get all the latest design blog news. Thanks!

  23. So much good material so little time to read it all. Information overload!

  24. Mirovoi says:
