No-Sp@m Internet!

Yes, Ditch your blogger. And yes, I know you have already created lots of contents and have spent precious months building up your coating your blogger to look as original as possible. However, if you are seriously considering doing power blogging, here’s why you should throw blogger away and get wordpress blogging platform - the best blogging platform in the world - on your own hosted domain, like what many pro bloggers are doing.

I started using blogger too because when I started, I’d only heard of blogger. While it is very user-friendly, you could be in troubles at anytime because of its all mighty owner - Google which legally owns your content and if they are unhappy with you, you could be in serious blogging nightmare as you could find you can’t log into your blog anymore or your blog url simply vanish over night! That’s why wordpress has this great advantage as you have full control over it provided if you install it on your own domain.

More and more people are jumping into the blogging bandwagon. Some new bloggers just want to be unofficial journalists that comment about the local issues, some want to show people their knowledge in special niche, while some just wish to “bare” all for visitors to know about their private life. No matter what is your reason, you can definitely be a star through blogging. There is a level playing field for all who have a determination to ride on the train of serious professional blogging. That means something that started as a online diary has been turned into a strong internet force that can let you earn a full time living just posting articles to blogs or networking with other bloggers in the cyberspace.

Who would have thought of that just few years ago such a possibility. I have seen more and more successful examples of normal people turning into star bloggers earning possibly more monthly income than their office slogging counterparts, all in the comfort of own houses in pajamas and underwears.

1. Get a Keyword Focused .com Domain Name

This seems to be very important with the algorithms that Yahoo and MSN use in determining their search ranking relevance. So, for instance, if your domain name is getmesomefreeleads.com and someone performs a search on Yahoo for ‘get me some free leads’ there is a very good chance that you are going to be showing up as one of the top results. This is a great, quick and easy way to start capturing some free traffic for a powerful lead capture page.

2. Use Headings and Text to Incite Instant Emotion

Say goodbye to the Year of the Pig (2007) and hello to the Year of the Rat (2008). That’s Chinese for welcoming in the New Year with their own set of predictions. For example, Rat people work hard to achieve their goals, acquire possessions, and are likely to be perfectionists. Their ambitions are big, and they are usually very successful.

History is littered with predictions. If you make enough of the, some are bound to be true! The web is its own “animal” and goes by its own set of rules. However that does not stop me from offering my online marketing predictions for 2008. This year could very well be the Year of the Subscriptions, Mobile and Social Networking.

Being located at page 1 of Google could be regarded as the most profitable cyber real estate. To me personally, position 1 to 4 are the most profitable ranks, followed up position 8 to 10. Somehow if your website is in the middle of page 1, based on my own search experience, there is a higher tendency to ignore those websites around position 5 to 7. Because people tend to look at the top few and scroll down to the last few of page 1, and if they don’t see anything relevant, off they go to page 2. So does it really increase your sales if you are there in page 1?

You can have 1000’s of visitors per day, but if your website isn’t properly configure to convert those visitors into sales, then it wouldn’t make a difference even if you had 1,000,000 visitors a day. That means you still won’t make that many sales.

Get paid on 100% of your website traffic, no clicks necessary! How is this possible? <Click Here>

There is a new online advertising method which works very much like many other contextual advertisements but with a major difference. Pay per click requires website visitors to come to your website, look at the PPC ads embedded in your website and then click on the ads which interest them before you as the webmaster can earn the referral advertisement fee based on the number of clicks done. But for Pay Per Play method, it uses audio.

A friend recommends me to check out this software called Hypervre which is a viewed as a “higly viral software with an endless profit-potential” due to its ability to build new content websites in short period of time and monetize them. Together with some SEO knowledge, anyone can potentially build up a contextual ads empire which is proportional to the amount of traffic your websites receives each day. The more the merrier is the buzz here.

Currently I’m not happy with the contextual ads earnings I receive and I admit it is not that easy to build up because people know about it nowadays and they are adamant to click on them even when they venture to your websites. I guess the way to work on that is spiritual way that means via the path of “you reap what you sow”. Click on someone elses’ ads (of course must be relevant to your search) and someone will reciprocal over at the other end.

As a person who is rather technology-inclined, I am very conscious about the security aspect of modern technologies since better technologies mean opening the door wider for more technology-savvy rogues to exploit on. That is why nowadays there are always security software you can buy to provide your cellphones from virus attacks! To me security is a must. Although it makes things more complicated, it’s inevitable part of our lives unless all humans can be as docile as a house cat.

Recently I was looking at some latest network security products and I was led to this Austin company called Pragma Systems who is in the expert field of providing network professionals with a reliable access, control and management tools in almost every line of industry like finance, healthcare to supply chain management.

No idea who actually owns this website (keywordsdatabase.com) as the whois reveals nothing concrete but it is a very new website about keywords. The good thing is it is very easy to use. Just enter a broad keyword you’d like to know for its paying rate for adsense and the website will generate a list of the highest paying keywords related to that broad term. Again, no idea how accurate that list is and how it gets the data from.

The good thing is this allows those who are into adsense and adwords to have a rough idea how much is the paying rate for the keyword terms and I think that is pretty useful if you are seriously into adsense.
