As webmasters carefully build up their sites, traffic keeps growing, and most will then want to place ads to monetize that traffic — to cover server and bandwidth costs or even turn a profit. New webmasters just getting into site advertising may not know the jargon; many ad models are labeled CPA, CPS, CPM, CPT, CPC. Here's a plain-language explanation of what they mean.
Today I suddenly noticed a spike in my site's traffic, with an extra chunk of referral traffic. Per the traffic stats it came from the classic-cases section of the official REN domain website, where my site sits last under the 'Personal Blog: Programmer Tech Blog' category.
Many friends wonder why I switched domains again. Although switching hurts a site a lot, when I come across a desirable domain I can't resist switching. What's the story behind the newly adopted [renfei.net]? I was curious too, so I looked up the history of the domains I care about.

When renovating a home we pre-bury Ethernet cables, and we also buy some in daily life, but the market is a mess — Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7, even Cat8 and Cat9. How not to get ripped off by shady sellers? Today I'll explain how to choose Ethernet cables.
I personally believe this world is imperfect. Everything has yin and yang and never reaches perfect balance, so it chases the part it lacks — which is also what drives the whole system. Cold and heat form wind because air pressure seeks balance; male and female seek each other because each lacks what the other has. If a person were perfect, then you beside him would be superfluous — when you appear, he becomes imperfect and unbalanced. In contrast, human desire drives people onward. So what is perfection?
A project manager should have a technical background. In my view, to manage or communicate with technical people you need fairly specialized technical knowledge; otherwise you cannot speak their "jargon", let alone share a "common language". Most technical people have strong personalities and their own ways of thinking, so without a technical background your opinions will be unconvincing and you will be easily fooled by dominant technical people.
