    Domain Names

    By Kyle Henrie | May 19, 2008

    Henrie Media recommends that you use a discount domain name broker when purchasing a Domain Name for your Do It Yourself projects.

    What is a “Domain Name”?

    A Domain Name is a name that identifies a computer or computers on the internet. These names appear as a component of a Web site’s URL, e.g. Henriemedia.com. This type of domain name is also called a hostname. Domain names are also used for other purposes in the Domain Name System (DNS), for example the special name which follows the @ sign in an email address, or the Top-level domains like .com, or the names used by the Session Initiation Protocol (VoIP), or DomainKeys.

    We recommend using idotz.net for all of your domain name registration needs. They provide domain name registration for only $8.75 or less! They also don’t have all of the “in your face” banner ads and offer pages like many other registration companies.

    Use the search box below to find your next domain name:

    Royalty-Free Stock Photography

    By Kyle Henrie | May 14, 2008

    Henrie Media recommends that you use Royalty-Free Stock Photography for all of your Do It Yourself projects.

    What does ‘Royalty-Free’ Stock Photography mean?
    Royalty-free pricing is based solely on the size of the product you need, not the specific use. You don’t have to pay any additional fees on a use-by-use basis. Once you purchase a royalty-free product, you may use it multiple times for multiple projects without paying additional fees. Royalty-free images offer creative professionals an alternative to right-managed imagery — without sacrificing quality or creativity. Royalty-free products provide a solution for every budget, with few usage restrictions. Once you pay the fee for a royalty-free product, you can use the images as frequently and creatively as you’d like.

    This is much more affordable than ‘Rights-Managed” photography.

    What does ‘Rights-Managed’ mean?
    Rights-managed products are high-quality products with a license and fee based on your specific use. The fee is calculated from several factors including print run, size, placement, duration of use and geographic distribution. At the time you order a rights-managed product, you will be asked to submit information that will determine your licensing fee.

    Henrie Media does not recommend using ‘rights-managed’ photography due to the high costs associated with each use and the timed duration use of each image.

    Big Stock Photo

    We recommend using BigStockPhoto.com for all of your photo needs. They provide royalty-free, high-resolution images for only $1 - $2 per image!
