Chris B On The Web Plans (REVISED)

       So I did this post before but things are changing and rapidly fast and things move fast around the Chris B On The Web Studios and I been thinking things out very clearly lately and I think this is the best plan yet to wait on a few things with the site and Chris B On The Web and I am finally thinking for the future not worried about the past on the platforms and I should of took just retired from casting after so many years of broadcasting on the internet, the trolls got to me, yes! And casting isn't worth the stress at all! So without further ado, here is the update and again please note nothing is in cast iron can change down the road at anytime!: 


July 2017:

July 10th: Start working on getting Everything About Reality TV Podcast onto ITunes to help it even grow even more and will be the last network  I am extended the podcast onto for now, but could be on other networks in the near future at a later time and date!  

September 2017:

- Plans to collab with long time friend Jeff Livingstone to do an interview with him about his sports, bowling, softball, hockey. 

On Going:

- Also ongoing right now is an experimental stage of having one of my Alumni be an author for this very blog, I will not say who but in time you will know who it is. Even if you went to the blog on the website it is a total giveaway! LOL Let me helps you guys on this one http://chrisbontheweb.com/cbotw-blog/ Yes I am being quite sarcastic with that statement!  

In The Plans But Cancelled The Plans:


- I was aiming to bring Everything About Reality TV LIVE on the airwaves of chrisbontheweb.com via UStream and a chat however, I said I am retired from casting and I need to stick to my word and never ever cast again. I am happier not casting, but had fun while it lasted and will always remember the good memories I have had broadcasting over the years.


           There is my timetable for right now, it can change with new plans or plans can be dropped if need be if something happens or unable to go through with the plan but hopefully this will all go into plan step by step and taking one step at a time, I know the plans for this year are going to go through as for the cancelled, I am not changing my mind whatsoever on it, it is what it is and I am going to deal with it!



Have a great night!

Starting To Doubt....

                   I am usually pretty optimistic with things but recently in the last week with having nothing but website problems, yes chrisbontheweb.com has been down for the second time in a week and it's nothing to do with my provider where I bought the domain it is more along the line 000webhost the web builder I use to build ChrisBOnTheWeb.com on and trust me I have been looking for alternatives but there is one I would like to use but I would have to learn HTAccess and without Chance to guide me through it as hes ignored me on Twitter and stopped being active with Chris B On The Web, he has been no help currently and I do not know much about HTAccess currently. But getting an ideal idea how to do it slowly but going to do another test site to make sure it works fully before moving everything over to that provider. This would mean emails for my website that I use to use would be back in play and I would for now retire chrisbontheweb@yahoo.com however at this point I gotta be patient and if I cannot figure out HTAccess then I gotta deal with these server problems until renewal of the domain which is in November 2018 of next year.

              I know what your going to say it is frustrating and I hear you guys. Myself I am clearly frustrated with the lack of uptime this year, my site has been down more then has been up and running but I gotta work with what we have with currently and just deal with this minor 12 hour outage. Again I would like to thank you for your patience through this rough 12 hour downtime with the website.

Rough Re-Launch But ChrisBOnTheWeb.com is BACK! And Got NEWS!

          Well it was a really rough and stressful re-launch tonight as it has been a very, very stressful night for me to get the site working properly, work out the bugs and just get the site at least operational once again.

           First issue I had was the front page images weren't set up again which was my entirely my fault in the process I totally wasn't thinking at all and that was my fault so I ended up delaying the re-launch by 30 minutes. Once I was ready to re-launch problems galore, had issues with the drop down menu on one of the Menu options at the top, that being the tab called "Podcasts" which is home to the podcasts that are currently running on Chris B On The Web& ChrisBOnTheWeb.com! Also the icon at the top of the page, some page showed the Chris B On The Web logo, some showed 000webhost which is my provider currently that my site is built on.  So with that I had to mad scramble to fix the issues on the website, first the navigational bar which took about 15 - 20 minutes to fix which I was finally satisfied with finally with the navigational bar which has all the pages on the website. Then there was an issue with the freaking footer which is located at the bottom of the page for those who didn't know where the footer was on a website or what it was. So talk about major issues with the website today, it was very insane evening on top of my Rogers Internet being a pain in the neck as well so it was full of frustrations on a Tuesday night but hey we got through em all! 


            Now that I explained all the issues with the website here is my news that I have that involves Chris B On The Web. Justin, Jeff and I been keeping this for quite some time now and I have been talking about it on Twitter here and there that a new podcast was in the works, aka CBOTW Gamers Podcast. The original plan was for me to Host and have a Co-Host but now I am proud to say Chris B On The Web & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com has brought on a Host to replace me and Adam for that podcast so I can primarily focus on "Everything About Reality TV" and this person I've known for many, many years since the days of XAT.com. So without further Ado I would like to welcome  and welcome back Jeff Lieberman to the team since XAT.com days and I know you will do a great job on this monthly Podcast the first week of the Month. You will see him post up blog posts as he has free reign on this blog as well and will post up from time to time whether its sports talk or just random chit chat, he has the privileges as an author to this blog. Please note his podcast is in the early stages of planning, not day and time has been set when it get recorded or posted up on chrisbontheweb.com, he still needs to get a computer to record it with and possibly a headset with a mic so it is good quality sound but myself or Jeff will let you know when we have it set in schedule.

Happy Easter! | Changes With Chris B On The Web

               First of all Happy Belated Easter to you all! Hope you had a wonderful Easter, I sure as heck did! Between family, podcasts, blogs, cooking and fixing the bloody website, I pretty well wore myself out within that entire week and even after Easter I am still trying to catch up on stuff to this very day. But tomorrow will be a joyous day as ChrisBOnTheWeb.com will be reopening after a full week closed due to server issues and problems for about 40 hours late of last week. But at last that can be put behind me and everything is going to go back to normal and all podcasts this week should be out on the day of, no doubt about it now! 

              Update: Website is re-opening today at some point during the daytime. It was decided to take an extra day or so to work out any bugs that there was on the website everything should be ready to go this morning for the return of the website! 



Have a great Night!

Thank-You! [10,000 Website Views!]

Well yesterday, February 26th, 2017, chrisbontheweb.com has hit 10,000 website views over the course of a short time since adding the counter to the website, which was sometime last year but over the course of the last 2 years now it was worth the hard work put into the website day in and day out each and everyday. I love ChrisBOnTheWeb and what it has become over the last 2 years, from YouTube to Podcasting to blogging, this site has ever so much grown over 2 years time and everyday new people follow me on social media getting to know me and my website to what it is to this day which helps with the plan to bring it live at a later date, but that is up in the air right now... Now YouTube was such a fun experience and getting the comments each and everyday but it become a hassle to pick up the camera and vlog each and everyday which is the reason why I left YouTube to do my podcast "Everything About Reality TV" and I think my move to I have yet to seen it. 10,000 people IS a lot of people and it is very very overwhelming to see so many people over the course of this time. But connecting with my almost 2300 Twitter followers is the reason why my website has grown and gotten to the 10K in a fast pace. 

The plan now with being at 10K with my website, I am hoping and aiming for video platform as well with the Audio ONLY of the podcast which means schedule will be changing entirely from the time podcasts are live and to the time the Audio ONLY version of the podcast will be released which is a reason I am meeting with my in Studio Assistant who helps me off air with scheduling and other things that needs to be done within my studio. So I will put that on my itinerary for this weeks upcoming meeting to discuss the plan for podcasts on chrisbontheweb.com. I really want to make this the best podcasting experience ever and myself, Justin, Jeff & Chance have features which you will not beyond believe with the plans we have planned within the site which will hopefully double our viewers! With the chat coming it will always be opened 24-7 and there will be no guest chatting as it will bring down the trolls that wanna troll me. And another thing Chance is doing is where when you sign up to chat within our chat, yes I said our chat, I wanna make this a place we can hangout on air/off air there is only 4 rules I have and it is the most liberal rules I have had in the past, but anyways when you sign up you can only have one user account via IP, this is to bring down the amount of trolls. Myself, Justin, Jeff and Chance will have an admin panel where we can see whos on the chat and who the users are so we can take action if it gets out of control.  That is our plan now that we hit 10 thousand views on the site and I am, we are excited for the future plans of the website to grow the website even more! 


Have a great Monday! Might do another post later as a double post Monday!

Update On The Re-Build of Chris B On The Web & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com!

First of all I had one other blog to post but I can put that on hold till tomorrow because I really want to get this post out on an update. As you guys know ever since departing YouTube it has been a hard to rebuild the website from the ground up. Also having to deal with problems with my team, it hasn't been easy on the stress on me since two individuals no names mentioned quit last year which was the downfall of my YouTube career.

So now the changes: Even more problems have occurred recently with my staff. I hired 2 people and very little lack of communication, I ended up letting them go because of it. I have 1 more and they got warned I am pulling the plug June 1st, just so frustrated with my team not doing their role within my team at this point. So Staff here at Chris B On The Web isn't all smiles and laughs but it is slowly coming together. But with the change in staff once again, I think the 4 of us can handle what needs to be done and the Staff seems more steady now then it has been for in the last week. Now as you guys know, I've had my share of issues with chrisbontheweb.com Over the last month with it being up and down quite a lot. First it went down for major work to be done, I brought it back online in time for my podcasts to growing once again. Then of course the website went down once again due to a server issue which isn't surprising to me at all. The 000webhost servers has it's own issues once and a while but the site itself is back up and running and is running nice and smoothly now.

So between site issues and staff issues, it has been a busy last month and I ensure you everything is alright and I know the problems have been resolved and slowly making a plan to what I would like to do with ChrisBOnTheWeb and I got a meeting with Staff this upcoming week to what I would like to do. at this point. Finally I would like to say thank you for your patience through this tough growing pains of my website and Chris B On The Web and I think we are on the right track right now. 

Have a great Saturday!

Had A Dufus Moment Last Week! | Frustration Like Crazy Last Week!

Well last week was a major dufus moment and one hell of a week for me as I thought it was 000webhost servers that was giving issues, well at first it was their crummy server, then I reset the site entirely hoping it would come back online, but it was a minor step I missed that was the cause of the root of the problem this entire time! Now blaming my domain provider wasn't the right answer and I've already manned up to the mistake. Honestly 000webhost is making it so hard for use the website owners to operate the website. I am still vouching to what I said on Twitter back on the weekend which is I am still planning to get a full on package with the domain whether it is with HostGator when I renew or GoDaddy or some other domain provider website. I got a year and a half to decide where I am heading with the future of chrisbontheweb.com But this brings me into my next point which is you can imagine over the course of the last year and a half how much frustration I have been through within the website, trying to maintain it and also keep it online for more then a freaking week! Now since my site is back the views are not as good grinding around 22 views per day, however it is starting to get the viewership back, my more biggest concern at this point of time is the lack of communication within my team, my staff who volunteer their time to help me with the success of running ChrisBOnTheWeb. Just yesterday, I ended up letting go of one of the 4 staff I had. At this point I am cleaning house and as April 1st of this year, one more will go if this chat doesn't move anywhere which at this point it hasn't and has been at a full stand still for almost an entire year. I waited a whole freaking year plus for this chat to be done and has it? Nooo always excuses made or arguments made over it. Yes I understand it takes time but they said it wouldn't take more then a year and all I have seen is the login main screen of the chat that's it. So as of April 1st like I said I will be letting them go as their was no communication made since January and the dream of bringing my podcasts back live will not be happening anytime soon.  I feel for you guys and the frustrating levels of a site that isn't working half the time, however I appreciate the patience and positive feedback you guys have given me when the site has been online. That always put a smile on my face and right now as I am typing this I got a bit of a grin on my face as I am very very happy with the positive feedback and pep talks you guys give me on Twitter. I am very grateful to have you guys as a fan base and grown so much since the move to podcasts last summer. I have almost doubled from the 1500 I had last summer and hopefully I will hit 3k by the summer and I sure think I will. 


Have a great Tuesday!

Updates, Both Website and Podcasts!

So I am sure for those who have follow me on social media, you were shocked as heck to see the site back up and operating in a very quick fashion. Well the explanation behind that is I needed to get the site back up so this way TuneIn.com knows I got an active website and it is up and running once again. Now being at 12 hours of it running, the site views been around 14 views but it is going to be slow while the site is just getting back up and running. Once Big Brother Canada, Survivor & Amazing Race comes back, the views should go up. Also the facts that I am going to start blogging on a almost regular basis will help with the website views going up. I have never  doubted the facts that my website wouldn't fail, it has been running smoothly lately and always getting viewers. But now that the site was short off 3 weeks, I think people wondered what was going on with the site and why it went down. Don't forget it went down the day before my computer went out of commission for several days. And the last few weeks it was about me rebuilding the entire website and also finding the right provider that will work for me, yet I have once again returned to 000webhost and I dont mind the email forwarder and I realized today it has been sending me emails from that email address to the places I have signed up with. But once again chrisbontheweb@yahoo.com is where you can contact me or the team at anytime if you got any questions at all. 

Now Everything About Reality TV took a turn for the worst as when I embedded episode 1 - 4 of EAR TV it showed Episode # 13. Now everything is fine on the side of podcasts.com so it has to be a glitch with stitcher and I have notified them but yet to hear back from them about what is going on with it. I have for now at least pulled my stitcher partnership for now until they fix the glitch or it will be a permanent pull and I will not go with them again in the near future. However I have signed up for EAR TV to appear on TuneIn.com like I said above and hopefully they say yes and allow me to have my podcasts on there and help me grow my podcasts further.


Have a great Wednesday everyone!
