Readers of this blog probably would have been wondering where I am? Or now ‘where was I?’ (as you are reading this post). Its not a long story or even a story 
I was busy with tightening security of my web servers, hosting accounts, billing systems, office network. As these were the most important things to do for me after cracking of my email account and domain names being hijacked.
Then there was few new projects (new websites) that I was planning to create for last 3 months and wasn’t able to find enough time to get started on these. So I worked on 2 new projects and on marketing at an existing one, our wonderful blog, The Wondrous. I also prepared a future business plan, this was to set a clear direction for my career.
I’m back after 4 weeks and have decided to become proactive at this blog. I was writing 5 +/- posts a month but have decided now to write more often (few times a week). That means this blog will be update more and you will be reading more money making ideas and tips.
Thank you all my readers for your support and visiting this blog. I’d received few questions from readers though comments, that I will be answering soon.

Well I’m still remembering Syria, land of culture and history. Here is my short review of Syria and specially Damascus.
It is where the first alphabet was conceived, where the first written musical note was discovered, and where wheat was first cultivated.
Syria’s rich and varied history has left lasting legacies, which are as diverse as they are remarkable. Syria will always surprise and delight. It is not necessary to travel all over the country to appreciate archaeology. There is enough in Damascus to keep you occupied for at least one holiday. After all, this is the world’s oldest inhabited city and is in itself a living museum.
From the moment you arrive in Syria, it is clear that this is a country very different from its neighbors and the rest of the Arab world. The Arabic hospitality is still present wherever you go, but the openness of the society also makes it quite unique.
The main appeal of Syria is its archaeological sites. Home to 39 civilizations over 16,000 years, Syria is a lost treasure awaiting rediscovery.
A short car journey outside Damascus is the ancient village of Maaloula, a mere 50 kilometers from the capital, which is one of only three places left in the world where the inhabitants still speak Aramaic, the language of Jesus Christ.
Jordan has Petra, Egypt has Luxor and Aleppo is the jewel in Syria’s crown. It is a city with a history dating back to the 3rd millennium BC and was once a renowned stop on the trading route linking east and west.

Long Way - New Journey By Aqeel Syed
I started blogging 2 years back. Last 2 years it is a journey of adventure deep into the wilderness of HTML, web design, CSS, SEO, JavaScript, PHP, the rugged beginnings of WordPress Theme Design, the stumbling steps of social networking and social media, tags, categories, comment spam.
I remember my first blog post, it was about web hosting in Pakistan. But the real happiness for me was to see my first visitors, getting some recognition (links) and praise.
Now when I’m starting my personal blog, writing my first post for this blog, I’m very excited. I want to share what I have learned in these two years, most exciting and fascinating aspects of web.
