Topic: New Website for Migrants thinking or just arrived in New Zealand

Guys,

Check out betterLifeNZ.com it's a site dedicated to the million things that families wanting to be Kiwi's need.

Comments welcome

Thanks for the info. I've just created an account. Now I'll have a look at it and will edit this post in a while.

EDIT: it seems the website is still under construction, anyway all information about visas, money and buying a house is going to be very useful for people like me who wants to move to NZ. Keep the good work and finish all the "after-arriving" stuff. Very promising.

emigratebruce.

try posting on the site under introductions and let me know how you find it

it looks like there are still lots of info missing

There is lots more info now including Twittering but I am getting spammed big time on the Vbulletin Board, any ideas how to get rid of that people?

How are you getting spamed is it fake registrations or forum comments?

Also is you site hosted on linux or windows

Also who is your hosting provider

do you have any stats running? do you know where the spam is comming from (ip address)?

Posts are from advertisers usually viagra etc.
I can block their IP addresses but there are so many new ones coming on board.
I am not sure what the server language is Linux or Windows, Its hosted in USA to get a better speed to global market. It is hosted via a NZ webhosting company 1st web.
I have just installed askimet which seems to be blocking them into a moderator pile.
Problem is my website frontpage is loged in as an administrator so it showcases all the forum posts that are waiting to be moderated.

Does that make any sense to you

Do you have verification email being send out when new user sings up?

also do spamers actually create an account or do they post without creating an account?

also you can have a look at this one

I would also appreciate if you can recommend any other online shops that I can buy from here in New Zealand. Thanks!
