4 ways to access websites that block your IP

If there are some websites you have been finding difficult to access on your computer, then, relax as I share with you 4 ways you can access such websites. Such websites block some IP addresses for reasons best known to the website administrator. Hence, if your IP address is among the blocked IP addresses, you will not be able to access such website.

More so, in some offices, schools and countries, some sites specially social networking websites like MySpace and facebook are often blocked.

You can now access such websites and even prevent them from keeping record of your identity if you use any of the methods below:


1. Softwares that Hide IP


There are softwares out there whose basic function is to hide your IP and unblock websites. Most are very easy to use.


FoxyProxy is a small add-on for Firefox that allows users to access blocked sites. SwitchProxy or AutoProxy. are similar add-ons that can be used to access such blocked websites too.

3. Web proxies


There are many free online services that allow you to access blocked websites through a proxy server. You can easily safeguard your identity online by using an anonymizer or an anonymous proxy. There are literally thousands of anonymous proxy servers out there. Like; Ninjacloak, Proxy.org, HideMyAss.com,Vtunnel.com, Anonymouse.org. You can check out the Master List of all Web Proxy Servers by Proxy.org


4. VPN connections



A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is like a tunnel over the public network. VPNs use advanced encryption and allow you to access all applications (mail, chat, browser etc) in complete anonymity and not only the web sites, hence more secure than web proxies. The most known free VPN are, UltraVPN and ProXPN.

I hope this info helps...

Etisalat Data Plans – Internet Subscription Codes


If you’re looking to subscribe to the 0809ja 4 Life network’s internet, you’ve come to the right place. Etisalat Nigeria offers 3 basic plan options ( Easynet Flex, Easynet Time and Easynet Fixed) and these have been further broken down into monthly or hourly plans.

Recharge Card Printing Business Scams You Must Avoid

The Recharge card printing business in Nigeria is still booming, though it is not as lucrative as most people claim and now only makes sense to big time investors. Due to the way people show interest in getting involved in the business, some thieves are using the opportunity to scam some innocent people, hence the need for me to come up with this post.

Officially, prices of epins of all networks in Nigeria range between N93-N96 per pin, with MTN Nigeria been the most expensive. The real dealers will sell to you within this range and it is left to you to print the epins and sell at any price you want.

Mind you, most sub-dealers only gain between one-two naira per pin when they resell to retailers. The volume of sales they make determine how much profit they make and not just what they gain per pin. This is one of the reasons why printing of recharge cards is NOT for you if you can't invest lot of money into the business nor have the capability to sell high volume of recharge cards within few days.





So, How Do The Scammers Operate?

The scammers simply lie to you that they can sell recharge epins to you at a very cheap price. Some claim to sell as low as N65 per pin. I keep wondering how someone will be able to sell so low like this if the person didn't steal the epins. Dealers don't even get it cheap like this at all. If anyone claims to sell far less than N93-N96 per pin and you send your money to the person, you are on your own. You are warned.

Once you show interest in buying from the scammers, some will even start disturbing you with calls just to pay for the epins. They will even sweet-mouth you that they can send the pins to you via email, irrespective of where you are in Nigeria and if you fall for their scam and send your money to them, they disappear into thin air. This is just one of the reasons I keep warning that you should not send money to anybody claiming to be selling epins, without you visit his/her office at least for once.

If you think buying pins between N93-N96 per pin won't make any sense to you, Please, printing of recharge cards is not by force. Buy the printed ones, resell and make your money.

I hope this helps.

If you are still interested in printing of recharge vouchers in Nigeria, I have some reliable dealers I can direct you to. You go to their office, meet them, pay and get your stock instantly. They will also sell their softwares to you, which you will use in printing the recharge cards. They will train you on how to use the software in printing the recharge cards.

I sell the reliable recharge card dealers info for N1, 000. If interested, just text "dealers info" to 08060770027 and I will get back to you on how to make your payment. You can also pay if you can't make it to the bank.
