There is a problem and we need to seek solutions,
we have been introduced to the world of Internet Technology, but i will like to ask this important question.
Are we using this platform in the right direction?
your visit to any local cyber net cafe will let you into the unserious attitude most of are youths play away time over the Internet with games, pornography, and scams, not minding the fact that you can really be the best in your field if you use this technology for the right purpose.
IT is just the next level of transacting business. but is Nigeria building to the reality and facts of the true sense of Information technology.
View more on my Blog and maybe you might learn one or two important tricks on how to make good of your IT skills.

What is a Blog
read, write, or edit a shared on-line journal
web log: a shared on-line journal where people can post diary entries about their personal experiences and hobbies; "postings on a blog are usually in chronological order"

A blog (a contraction of the term weblog) is a website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketches (sketchblog), videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting), which are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging, one which consists of blogs with very short posts. As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs.[1] With the advent of video blogging, the word blog has taken on an even looser meaning — that of any bit of media wherein the subject expresses his opinion or simply talks about something.

Types Of Blogs
There are many different types of blogs, differing not only in the type of content, but also in the way that content is delivered or written.
Personal Blogs
The personal blog, an ongoing diary or commentary by an individual, is the traditional, most common blog. Personal bloggers usually take pride in their blog posts, even if their blog is never read by anyone but them. Blogs often become more than a way to just communicate; they become a way to reflect on life or works of art. Blogging can have a sentimental quality. Few personal blogs rise to fame and the mainstream, but some personal blogs quickly garner an extensive following. A type of personal blog is referred to as "microblogging," which is extremely detailed blogging as it seeks to capture a moment in time. Sites, such as Twitter, allow bloggers to share thoughts and feelings instantaneously with friends and family and is much faster than e-mailing or writing. This form of social media lends to an online generation already too busy to keep in touch.

Corporate Blogs
A blog can be private, as in most cases, or it can be for business purposes. Blogs, either used internally to enhance the communication and culture in a corporation or externally for marketing, branding or public relations purposes are called corporate blogs.
Question Blogging
is a type of blog that answers questions. Questions can be submitted in the form of a submittal form, or through email or other means such as telephone or VOIP. Qlogs can be used to display shownotes from podcastsor the means of conveying information through the internet. Many question logs use syndication such as RSS as a means of conveying answers to questions.

By Media Type
A blog comprising videos is called a vlog, one comprising links is called a linklog, a site containing a portfolio of sketches is called a sketchblog or one comprising photos is called a photoblog.[4] Blogs with shorter posts and mixed media types are called tumblelogs. Blogs that are written on typewriters and then scanned are called typecast or typecast blogs; see typecasting (blogging).
A rare type of blog hosted on the Gopher Protocol is known as a Phlog.

By Device
Blogs can also be defined by which type of device is used to compose it. A blog written by a mobile device like a mobile phone or PDA could be called a moblog.[5] One early blog was Wearable Wireless Webcam, an online shared diary of a person's personal life combining text, video, and pictures transmitted live from a wearable computer and EyeTap device to a web site. This practice of semi-automated blogging with live video together with text was referred to as sousveillance. Such journals have been used as evidence in legal matters.[citation needed]

By Genre
Some blogs focus on a particular subject, such as political blogs, travel blogs, house blogs,[6][7] fashion blogs, project blogs, education blogs, niche blogs, classical music blogs, quizzing blogs and legal blogs (often referred to as a blawgs) or dreamlogs. While not a legitimate type of blog, one used for the sole purpose of spamming is known as a Splog.

Hello how are you guys hope you following up with my ideas on how to blog for money many other tips and trics and i hope you can get more ideas from me.
It’s true. I love my blog.

No, you don’t get it. Yeah, I love blogging, and love reading and sharing blogs, having a blog, blah, blah. But what I mean is – I love my blog. Really love it.

Oh, all right, I’ll just say it. I am in love with my own blog.

Yeah, right. Just another excuse to look at your own blog. Read that last brilliant post just one more time. Stare in astonishment at this thing you have created. This wonderful, marvelous, one-of-a kind expression of everything you are. But not the way a parent might stare at their child sleeping like an angel in the crib. No. That would be normal.

More like Narcissus staring into the pool at his own reflection all goddamned day long. IN LOVE WITH HIMSELF. Pitiful, isn’t it?

THE BEST WAYS TO MAKE MONEY WITHOUT SPENDING MONEY

The 4 most popular ways to make
money without spending money

WAYS TO MAKE MONEY: # 1
Make money selling your own product
Yes, you can do this without spending money. This is the path most small business take - and probably the most profitable one.

It is also the most difficult one of the 4 ways to make money without money. It's difficult and time-consuming. If you're forced to do it without a budget, it will be even more time-consuming. But you're determined to build a profitable, long-term Internet business, right? Hard work is not a problem. Right?

The most difficult part of this method is the product development.

What can you make without spending a penny? Something that people will still buy from you?

The answer lies in information products. We all have marketable skills. You're an expert in something.

Do you know a lot about cars?
Write a mini-book on basic engine maintenance.

Know a lot about kids?
Write a book called "101 Ways To Keep 2-year olds entertained" - you've already got your first buyer right here!

This is really doable. There are people who'd pay to know what you know.

Get nitty-gritty advice on creating your own product. Get the very short, very powerful e-book called "Ways To Make Money On The Net". No hype. Just dead-accurate advice. This document will save you two years of trial and error! Guaranteed.

WAYS TO MAKE MONEY: # 2
Make money selling someone else's product
When you sign up as an affiliate / reseller for someone else's product, you refer people to the "supplier site" and you get a cut each time someone who you referred makes a purchase. It really is that simple. Probably the most doable of the ways to make money without money.

But you will only make money at affiliate programs if you can find a good supplier. One that's honest about tracking of sales and one that will pay on time.

I highly recommend the Biz-Logo.com Logo Design Affiliate Program. It's great if you target small business owners who might be in the market for a business logo or other graphic design work.

You can't believe everything you read about affiliate programs, but they can really make money. A significant portion of my own Internet income is from affiliate programs. There are a couple of things you have to get right though. That book I mentioned above also looks at some of the best ways to make money with affiliate programs.

WAYS TO MAKE MONEY: # 3
Make money selling advertising space

The idea behind it is to offer free information from your web site to pull in high volumes of traffic. Once you've achieved that, advertisers would pay you to display their advertisements on your site. This is probably one of the oldest and most hyped ways to make money without money.

It worked really well until the end of 2000. It's how Yahoo became big. With the dotcom bust in 2000, even Yahoo was forced to look to alternative revenue streams. Advertisers began to realize that, in most cases, web advertising is just not cost effective.
Nowadays most people don't click ads right?

Right?

Wrong! There's life in this old machine yet...

Contextual advertising (like Google's AdSense program) offers a real alternative to traditional advertising - and many web site owners are rediscovering this tried and tested way of making money from their web sites.

WAYS TO MAKE MONEY: # 4
Make money doing what you already do
This is not for you if you're looking to build a serious small business on the Net. It's the easiest of the ways to make money without money, but because it's easy, it doesn't pay much.

Very little in fact.

It mostly involves getting paid to surf the Internet and getting paid to take surveys. It's like stuffing envelopes for money. If that blows your hair back, type "getting paid to do surveys" into the search box at Google and hit "Enter". Take your pick. Don't expect to get rich though.

WAYS TO MAKE MONEY ONLINE... Bonus Tip
How serious are you?
Ok, you've read this far.

Time I spilled the beans...

Making money online is not easy. If it was, you'd be out there making it, not over here reading about it.

I worked my butt off for two years before I made my first sale online. Two years of trial and error, late nights and too much coffee.

Shave two years off your learning curve. Get "Ways To Make Money On The Net" right now. At only 7 bucks with a full money-back guarantee to back your investment, it's a no-brainer.

Find out more about the book here.

Buy that book, read it, APPLY it and keep at it. You can and will make money from on the Net.

All the best

Affiliate Sales

A good monetization channel for select products and services is affiliate sales. This approach involves signing up to become an affiliate reseller of specific products.

As long as the affiliate products do not affect the publisher's credibility and provide pointers to useful, high-value products that the publisher fully endorses, affiliate sales are a rewarding monetization channel.

The commissions received for these sales vary depending on the product and the original vendor sales and marketing strategy. LinkShare and Commission Junction are two of the largest affiliate program brokers. Check out their catalogs to get a good idea of what products and commissions are available.

If you write and publish your own e-books and other premium content publications, you may want to consider using an affiliate sales program to give your products greater reach and exposure.

My preferred provider for this is Share-It!, which offers full payment and an ecommerce infrastructure to online publishers while integrating a customizable affiliate program. You can set the commission and the products that you want your affiliates to manage. Share-It! automatically takes care of payments and accountability of the transactions; it sends updates and timely sales reports both to you and to your registered resellers. The system even automatically creates content pages that the reseller can link to from her own site.

Google Adsense with your Blogs

noreply@blogger.com (samuel) — Fri, 02 May 2008 12:10:00 +0000

Google AdSense is a fast and absolute genuine way for earning money ridiculously easy way for people with websites of all types and sizes to put up and display relevant Google ads on the content pages of their site and earn money. AdSense presents an earning opportunity to the website owners by allowing Google to post advertisements on their websites.

These advertisements are either text advertisements or image based advertisements. Of course, the website owners need to enroll to the AdSense program through Google's website.AdSense is a wonderful advertising concept that was conceived by Google some time back. Though new advertising concepts keep coming up all the time, this one is something that is altogether different.Google AdSense,is an ad serving program run by Google.

Website owners can enroll in this program to enable text, image and, more recently, video advertisements on their sites. These ads are administered by Google and generate revenue on either a per-click or per-thousand-impressions basis.Google has a huge advertiser base, so they have ads for all kinds of businesses and for just about every type of content no matter how broad or specialized it is. And since Google provides the ads, you don’t have to spend time talking to your advertisers - you just earn money from them.

A lot of webmasters are earning a lot of money off of AdSense, and there’s no reason you shouldn’t be one of them.The amount of money you can earn with Google AdSense mainly depends on what user needs your Website fills. For instance, a site about women’s issues can make some serious bucks on AdSense because of the high level of competition for related keywords.

This is a great way to make money for housewives,parttime work hunters who like to get genuine job with out paying any registration fees.Cost perclick is the amount you get paid every time a user clicks on one of those ad banners. CPC rates for competitive keywords can be very high, which translates directly to your site’s earning potential within the programme

Because the Google AdSense ads relate to what your visitors came to your site to read about, or because the ads match up to the interests and characteristics of the kind of people your content attracts, you now have a way to improve your content pages and earning serious money off them and this is a major source of revenue.

Google AdSense is also a way for site owners to provide Google search capability to visitors and to earn even more money by putting Google ads on the search results pages.This generates revenue for the bloggers or publishers. Google AdSense gives you the ability to earn advertising revenue from every single page on your website—with a minimal investment of your time.You can also add search boxes from which your visitors can easily surf the internet through google and find out answers to their queries.

People can advertise their products and services through the Google AdSense system.Google AdSense increases the visibility of their business services and also increases traffic to their website; hence fulfilling their purpose of advertising.

The people who are visiting the website will be automatically be in the advertisements because they are interrelated to the topic that is discussed on that website. Website owners get revenue for displaying the Google AdSense Ads and for the clicks they receive on the Ads. So, they are happy too.

As far as businesses/advertisers are concerned, they get a system for targeted advertising that is both easy and economical to operate.Webmasters place Google AdSense JavaScript code on their web pages and Google AdSense serves advertisements based upon the content of the web page.

I just stumbled upon that google adsense account on the internet at www.internetprince.blogspot.com
The author decided to pair it with an adsense check to prove to you that you can actually make money on the internet with google adsense.i am not the owner of that adsense account but that is really a huge amount of money he is raking in as compared to my little dollars monthly.

it is really possible to earn income from the adsense program if you know the secrets to earning income on a daily basis from the program

Major sources and definitions

Geography
Nigeria, one-third larger than Texas and the most populous country in Africa, is situated on the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa. Its neighbors are Benin, Niger, Cameroon, and Chad. The lower course of the Niger River flows south through the western part of the country into the Gulf of Guinea. Swamps and mangrove forests border the southern coast; inland are hardwood forests.

Government
Multiparty government transitioning from military to civilian rule.

History
The first inhabitants of what is now Nigeria were thought to have been the Nok people (500 B.C.–c. A.D. 200). The Kanuri, Hausa, and Fulani peoples subsequently migrated there. Islam was introduced in the 13th century, and the empire of Kanem controlled the area from the end of the 11th century to the 14th.

The Fulani empire ruled the region from the beginning of the 19th century until the British annexed Lagos in 1851 and seized control of the rest of the region by 1886. It formally became the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria in 1914. During World War I, native troops of the West African frontier force joined with French forces to defeat the German garrison in the Cameroons.

On Oct. 1, 1960, Nigeria gained independence, becoming a member of the Commonwealth of Nations and joining the United Nations. Organized as a loose federation of self-governing states, the independent nation faced the overwhelming task of unifying a country with 250 ethnic and linguistic groups.

Rioting broke out in 1966, and military leaders, primarily of Ibo ethnicity, seized control. In July, a second military coup put Col. Yakubu Gowon in power, a choice unacceptable to the Ibos. Also in that year, the Muslim Hausas in the north massacred the predominantly Christian Ibos in the east, many of whom had been driven from the north. Thousands of Ibos took refuge in the eastern region, which declared its independence as the Republic of Biafra on May 30, 1967. Civil war broke out. In Jan. 1970, after 31 months of civil war, Biafra surrendered to the federal government.

Gowon's nine-year rule was ended in 1975 by a bloodless coup that made Army Brig. Muritala Rufai Mohammed the new chief of state. The return of civilian leadership was established with the election of Alhaji Shehu Shagari as president in 1979. An oil boom in the 1970s buoyed the economy and by the 1980s Nigeria was considered an exemplar of African democracy and economic well-being.

The military again seized power in 1984, only to be followed by another military coup the following year. Maj. Gen. Ibrahim Babangida announced that the country would be returned to civilian rule, but after the presidential election of June 12, 1993, he voided the results. Nevertheless, Babangida resigned as president in August. In November the military, headed by defense minister Sani Abacha, seized power again.

Corruption and notorious governmental inefficiency as well as a harshly repressive military regime characterized Abacha's reign over this oil-rich country, turning it into an international pariah. A UN fact-finding mission in 1996 reported that Nigeria's “problems of human rights are terrible and the political problems are terrifying.” During the 1970s, Nigeria had the 33rd highest per-capita income in the world, but by 1997 it had dropped to the 13th poorest. The hanging of writer Ken Saro-Wiwa in 1995 because he protested against the government was condemned around the world.

As leader of the multination peacekeeping force ECOMOG, Nigeria established itself as West Africa's superpower, intervening militarily in the civil wars of Liberia and Sierra Leone. But Nigeria's costly war efforts were unpopular with its own people, who felt Nigeria's limited economic resources were being unnecessarily drained.

Abacha died of a heart attack in 1998 and was succeeded by another military ruler, Gen. Abdulsalam Abubakar, who pledged to step aside for an elected leader by May 1999. The suspicious death of opposition leader Mashood Abiola, who had been imprisoned by the military ever since he legally won the 1993 presidential election, was a crushing blow to democratic proponents. In Feb. 1999, free presidential elections led to an overwhelming victory for Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo, a former member of the military elite who was imprisoned for three years for criticizing the military rule. Obasanjo's commitment to democracy, his anticorruption drives, and his desire to recover billions allegedly stolen by the family and cronies of Abacha initially gained him high praise from the populace as well as the international community. But within two years, the hope of reform seemed doomed as economic mismanagement and rampant corruption persisted. Obasanjo's priorities in 2001 were symbolized by his plans to build a $330–million national soccer stadium, an extravagance that exceeded the combined budget for both health and education. In April 2003, he was reelected.

Nigeria's stability has been repeatedly threatened by fighting between fundamentalist Muslims and Christians over the spread of Islamic law (sharia) across the heavily Muslim north. One-third of Nigeria's 36 states is ruled by sharia law. More than 10,000 people have died in religious clashes since military rule ended in 1999.

In 2003, after religious and political leaders in the Kano region banned polio immunization—contending that it sterilized girls and spread HIV—an outbreak of polio spread through Nigeria, entering neighboring countries the following year. The Kano region lifted its ten-month ban against vaccination in July 2004. On Aug. 24, there were 602 polio cases worldwide, 79% of which were in Nigeria.

Since 2004, an insurgency has broken out in the Niger delta, Nigeria's oil-producing region. The desperately impoverished local residents of the delta have seen little benefit from Nigeria's vast oil riches, and rebel groups are fighting for a more equal distribution of the wealth as well as greater regional autonomy. Violence by rebel groups has disrupted oil production and reduced output by about 20%. Nigeria is one of the world's largest oil producers and supplies the U.S. with one-fifth of its oil.

In Aug. 2006 Nigeria handed over the oil-rich Bakassi peninsula to Cameroon, in compliance with a 2002 World Court ruling.

April 2007 national elections—the country’s first transition from one democratically elected president to another—were marred by widespread allegations of fraud, ballot stuffing, violence, and chaos. Just days before the election, the Supreme Court ruled that the election commission’s decision to remove Vice President Atiku Abubakar, a leading candidate and a bitter rival of President Olusegun Obsanjo, from the ballot was illegal. Ballots were reprinted, but they only showed party symbols rather than the names of candidates. Umaru Yar’Adua, the candidate of the governing party, won the election in a landslide, taking more than 24.6 million votes. Second-place candidate Muhammadu Buhari tallied only about 6 million votes. International observers called the vote flawed an illegitimate. The chief observer for the European Union said the results “cannot be considered to have been credible.” An election tribunal ruled in February 2008 that although the election was indeed flawed, the evidence of rigging was not substantial enough to overturn the election results.

Making Big Money with Affiliates

Some affiliates make huge profits - we're talking millions of dollars in a year. It's a fact. People don't know this. Affiliate marketing is a new line of business, and it has great unexploited potential.

The internet as a marketplace is huge, and still it lies waiting in your computer. If you can reach just a tiny fraction of the world's web visitors, you may see life-changing money rolling into your affiliate account.
Amazing but true!
No automatic success
Now, don't quit your day job! Not every affiliate business is successful. Making a lot of money is never easy, plenty of hard work is required. Persistency, ambition, maybe a certain talent. Good ideas will help.
But people live from their affiliate businesses, and some affiliates are extremely successful. The people behind this site have been extremely successful. In this article we'll show you how to make your affiliate business boom.
How it works
Starting up an affiliate business is very easy:
Build a site, if you don't already have one.
Sign up with a few profitable affiliate programs that are related to your site.
Link to the affiliate programs from your site using your personal tracking links.
Generate traffic to your site
Make your visitors want to buy the products of the affiliate programs.
That's it. If you can do this, your visitors will click on the links and purchase products from the affiliate programs - and the commission goes right into your affiliate account.
How to find the best affiliate programs
Joining affiliate programs is cost-free, and you can use our site to find the programs that are best for your business. We provide you with updated lists of the top affiliate programs in each niche, with their respective advantages.
Categories of affiliate programs are listed in the column to the right. Read our reviews and join the programs that you like. If you already have a site, make sure you choose a niche that fits your site.

The most profitable affiliate markets
According to our experience, the biggest paychecks are delivered to affiliates in the following affiliate markets:
Poker
Mortgage
Education
In the poker niche, some poker sites pay you $300 CPA for each player you recruit. Mortgage institutions may pay $75 for every lead, that is, your visitor doesn't even have to take a loan for you to get paid.
Merchants in these areas early realized the gain in paying others to do their marketing. Very high commissions have attracted lots of affiliates, and they have been very successful.
Sounds tempting? Check out our toplists and reviews in the poker, mortgage and education segments!
Tough competition in lucrative niches
If you don't have a site, you need to decide which niche to work in. Choosing a niche involves several questions, such as which niche offers the biggest potential profits and which area you're genuinely interested in.
Some affiliate markets turn over really big money, while others are much smaller. Making big money in a small niche isn't a given, of course. On the other hand, very lucrative niches come with very hard competition.
Finding the most profitable niche might require pretty deep considerations. Some successful affiliates did put huge efforts into this analysis before even starting up (or buying) their site.
Again, if you plan to start up small or if you already have a site, finding good affiliate programs is easy using our toplists and reviews.
What makes you tick?
Don't close your eyes to the importance of personal motivation. When the workload is huge and success comes in very small chunks, working in an area that you care for makes a difference. For most of us, love of money isn't the prime mover.
It's easier to promote things that you like.
Primary success factors - things you must do
Build a good site
Your site is your tool. When a person enters a site, you have only a couple of seconds to catch her. The site must be well organized and have the right look and feel in order to make visitors stay and take action.
Make sure that your site leads the visitors to the Buy button without hassle. Invite them to take action (such as making a purchase), and don't let them off the hook once you have their interest. This is called conversion.
Taking action must be easy!
Create great content
Good looks aren't enough. For your site to generate income, it needs to accomplish two things:
Attract a lot of visitors (traffic)
Make visitors purchase (conversion)
This is primarily done by filling your site with really good content and good usability. It should be relevant for the visitors, and it should encourage them to purchase from your merchants (marketing).
Search engine optimization
If you have chosen to attract mainly organic traffic, that is, through the search engines, the content also needs to be search engine optimized (SEO).
Rule the net with good SEO copy
Search engines pay more and more attention to text quality. Relevant and well-written text doesn't only wins your readers' heart, it helps you rank in Google and drives traffic to your site.
Write for your readers - and for Google. It's called SEO copy.
Advertise and build traffic
Another way of attracting traffic is by paid ads and links. The main arena for this is called PPC (pay per click). You place an ad on another site and pays a small amount each time a visitor clicks on your ad.
The biggest PPC market for affiliates today is Google Adwords. You decide how much you're willing to pay for each click and set a cap for your total spending - so there's no risk for cost explosions. Some web hosts give away free Adwords checks when you place your site with them.
Notice that affiliate programs often limit where and how you're allowed to advertise their products - they don't want you to interfere with their own advertising.
Buying a site vs starting from scratch
For private persons and small businesses, the easiest and least expensive way to start a new affiliate business is to set up a new domain and build a site from scratch. It requires time and effort, but your capital investment can be close to zero.
If you have some resources and want things to happen fast, consider buying an existing site. Old sites may have a built-in credential with the search engines (page rank), and they may even have some traffic already. With the right actions, you can get an old site up in speed very fast.
Give luck a chance
So, that's the short version of how to make big money as an affiliate. Successful affiliates can lead very nice lives, with lots of personal freedom and job satisfaction. Anyone with internet access can try their luck as an affiliate, but of course success is never certain.
One thing is certain though: you cannot succeed if you don't try.
Trying is easy, and it costs almost nothing. If you try and fail, what's the worst that can happen? This list shows the consequences of the worst case scenario:
Nothing happens

10 Ways to Improve Blog Traffic in 30 Minutes or Less

noreply@blogger.com (samuel) — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 14:15:00 +0000

This is a guest post on improving blog traffic from Courtney Tuttle. Courtney writes about marketing online at Court’s Internet Marketing School.

1. Create link clusters within your blog
A link cluster is a group of links that you can point at a post or page to improve its search engine ranking. Let’s say you have a post that’s ranked for ’stupid business ideas’. Edit 10 of your other posts to create links (using ’stupid business ideas’ as the anchor text) to the ’stupid business ideas’ post and you will surely move up in Google for that keyword. This process can be implemented in about 10 minutes and can be used for any keyword your site ranks for or is trying to rank for.

2. Rework HTML title tags of trafficked posts
By watching your stats, you can often identify posts that get search traffic from a keyword, even though the keyword isn’t listed in the HTML title of the post. By editing your posts’ HTML titles to add the keywords they cover, you can strengthen the rankings and therefore the traffic that the post generates. You can easily make a difference with this method in less than 20 minutes. This method combines very well with #1.

3. Invite your readers to connect with you on StumbleUpon and Facebook
You can never ever have too many friends on SU and Facebook. Inviting existing readers to find you on these services with a post should take less than 20 minutes.

4. Save your best posts for the best times of the weekWriting a home-run post on a Saturday afternoon will probably happen from time to time. However, does your blog have good traffic on Saturdays? Analyzing your blog’s stats to determine when it naturally has the most traffic can get more eyes on a great post, which will translate to more social votes and more links. If you have created the post of your life, wait for a good day to publish - it will cost you about 1 minute on a later date to put it up.

5. Edit your post one more timeHow can you improve your title? How can you improve your first paragraph? Small details in your post, especially in the beginning of your post, can make an enormous difference in its ability to draw social traffic and links. You can definitely improve your title, first paragraph, formatting, and grammar within 30 minutes.

6. Stop writing about yourself. Start solving problems
Surfers become readers when a blog provides something that is wanted. A casual visitor may read your blog because they find training, answers to problems, entertainment, or something else they want. This more than likely will mean that they won’t want to read about you, your girlfriend, your cats, your kids, or your catastrophes (unless you have a personal blog that your friends read). Discontinuing the off-topic posts will help you to develop more repeat traffic and takes exactly 0 minutes to implement.

7. Subscribe to the feeds of your industry’s major players
That way, you won’t miss important news releases. When news breaks in your industry, there will be a lot of extra traffic searching for information on the event. Adding your thoughts will almost always generate extra traffic. Subscribing to the feeds of your industry’s top sites should take no more than 15 minutes.

8. Give a great post to a prominent blogLet’s say that you took the time to write something great. Donating your post to a great blogger can help you to create a win-win. The great blogger gets a great piece of content that will bring him social traffic and links and you can create exposure for your name and brand. Emailing your post to a great blogger or blog takes less than 10 minutes.

9. Go to the storeLook at magazines. Pay special attention to the types of titles that are used on the covers. Write down the most interesting titles and think about what makes them interesting. In order to generate buzz around a post, a great title is an absolute necessity. More on this topic here: The Cosmo Headline Technique for Blogging Inspiration. You should be able to find some good title ideas in about 30 minutes.

10. Answer your email and comment questions
Nothing will show a reader that you care more than answering an question (even if you have already answered that question 100 times on your site). Why do people read your blog? Because you solve their problems. Why will they come back again and again to your blog? Because you solve their problems. Answering a person’s email or comment question should take less than 5 minutes.

How to Make Money with Your Blog Site

noreply@blogger.com (samuel) — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 12:46:00 +0000

Which are the best and most effective ways to make a profit on your blog or independent news site?

1) Google AdSense

AdSense is by far the best, most rewarding monetization resource for blogs, news sites and small, content-rich information sites. Google offers AdSense, a service that lets independent publishers, bloggers and news site owners to publish text-based, context-relevant ads next to the content on their sites. This is done automatically without you, the publisher, having to worry about anything else except putting small-sized code inside each of your Web pages

For every click on Google AdSense contextual ads, the publishing sites receives credit for a small amount of money, while Google keeps an undisclosed amount of the total advertising share. Though many lament lack of relevance for the ads and little return for the increased info clutter on their pages — many silent publishers — probably the ones who consciously make less noise about this, are making serious money with this program.

What few understand, is that to make AdSense work for you ($$),it involves strategic work. Just placing the code on your pages isn't enough. The focus of your site, the way the content is organized, the way web pages are coded, the titles you use and the color and position you select for placing your AdSense ads on your Web pages all make a difference to the results you get. Significant.

What is important is that different rules apply to different types of pages and content. So no set of rules equally apply to all sites. The key is for the publisher to keep questioning the integration of contextual, text-based ads by doing systematic, ongoing testing, experimentation and optimization. For a focused blogger, this can mean from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per month. For a dedicated publisher covering high-paying information areas, it is possible to get into the 5-digit range without any major investments and with a relatively short time-to-market. I am not talking about a blogger in the traditional sense, but rather to focused and very professional independent information resources like SearchEngineWatch.com or Paidcontent.org, for example.

AdSense offers also the opportunity to monetize site searches while providing a powerful, lightning-fast search engine for your own site at no extra cost. By providing search-relevant ads on your site's search results pages. Google AdSense adds another great opportunity to monetize premium service and access with relevant text-based information about products and services.

Too bad Google AdSense doesn't let you select your contextual advertisers from its inventory.

2) Blogads

Blogads is an effective solution for taking control of your advertisers and comparing your profit share with your online ad agency. As the name clearly implies, Blogads is an advertising service for blogs. When the service first came out, As I mentioned that Blogads offers a great opportunity for small, independent publishers, blogs and news sites to sell their ad space in a direct and useful way. Blogads keeps 20 percent of your net revenue and sends you the rest by Paypal or check as soon as you reach a predetermined amount.

For your advertisers Blogads provides a great bonus in terms of speed and simplicity: "Ordering an ad takes just two or three minutes. Submit your image and/or text ad. Define its duration. Pay with Paypal's secure forms. You are done. After the blogger approves the ad, return to tweak and optimize clickthroughs, renew or order on new blogs."

In the case of Blogads the publisher has control over which ads to accept and which ones to reject.

How to build your personal Blog

noreply@blogger.com (samuel) — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 11:27:00 +0000

Bob (no url provided) asks - “I want to know how blogging can be used in personal branding. I want to be considered an expert in a topic, how best can writing a blog get me there? I do not care about adsense or CJ.com, I want to know how to use a blog to get consulting and freelance work in my field.”

Glad to hear you’re wanting to use your blog in this way Bob, you’re not alone as more and more people are doing it too.

Really what you’re saying here is that you want to use your blog to ’sell yourself’ instead of to sell a product or ad space.

Here are a few things to work hard at:

build trust - increasingly marketers are finding that people want to know and be in some sort of trusting relationship with those that they buy products or services from. This is particularly true for a personal service like consulting. Be open about your agenda and about what you do and don’t know. Talk both about your successes and failures. If all you do is use a blog for ’spin’ you’ll present as too good to be true.
be personal - building on the last point - one way to make a deeper connection with potential clients is to show something of who you are. This doesn’t mean blogging about your personal life, but show you’re human injecting humor, a photo or two of yourself and showing your personality.
use story - I find readers respond very well to story on blogs. Stories of my own experience, stories of other clients (shared with permission as case studies) etc. Using relevant stories can help build credibility in your niche.
establish expertise - people won’t give you the ‘expert’ label without you earning it. Show what you know (without being arrogant), show how you apply it (it’s one thing to know a lot - but can you translate your knowledge into something constructive and useful) and be a thought leader in your niche (ie break some new ground and show people that you’re capable of original thought).
be generous - some consultants use their blogs to talk very abstractly about their field of expertise but don’t actually give their readers much in the way of practical and applicable content. My approach is to give away quite a bit of information and to be quite generous with what you share. If you help someone for free I find that the next time they need something they’ll quite often be willing to pay for it. You might not want to give everything away for free but free reports, ideas and tips should feature pretty heavily on these types of blogs.
establish relationships in your niche - while building relationships on your own blog with potential clients can be very effective - when another blogger recommends you it can be even more powerful. Get to know other bloggers in your niche and you’ll find they will add to your credibility with their links and mentions on their blogs.
be consistent - while there’s no problem with changing, growing and developing in your ideas over time you do need to present some consistent messages over time. If you’re constantly chopping and changing what you’re on about and focusing on you’ll find that readers find it hard to connect with you and build a ‘relationship’ over time

NIGERIANS WAKING UP TO REALITY

noreply@blogger.com (samuel) — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 22:06:00 +0000

I my name is Samuel most of my friends call me sammie, i have known how to use the computer for quite some time now but i have never seen the use of it since i have been in the negative side of it.
I only think of making money through "419" and i tell you i make no dime, but right now i am making at least $2.500 monthly so i want you to follow my simple step to making it.
What you don't know costs you money.

Let's assume you are speeding to Lagos at 100 km/h in your beautiful new car, and then there's this BIG broken down trailer dangerously positioned at your next sharp bend. How much will not knowing about this broken down trailer cost you? Or what if a rich uncle of yours dies and leaves you (yes you!) N50 million in his Will. However, because you do not have this information, his lawyer takes all this money that should belong to you. How much has not-knowing cost you in both cases? In the second case, just N50 million. In the first, maybe your life.

World Website Directory

You are obviously very lucky to have stumbled upon my website. Actually, the things I am going to teach you are not really secrets at all, they are only secrets because you do not presently know about them. As a good example, before 1956 when oil was discovered in Nigeria at Oloibiri, we had lots of oil right under our feet, but we never made a single penny out of it - because it's existence was a total secret to us.

Additionally, we do not have more electricity or the raw materials for cars in the world today than we had 2000 years ago. Those people didn't enjoy electricity, cars, GSM phones and several of the modern privileges we enjoy today not because these things or their raw materials never existed then, but because they had not discovered the 'secrets' involved in obtaining them.

This is equally how it is in your everyday life. Right now, there are several good things going on around you, but you can never be able to take advantage of them or enjoy them if you do not even know that they exist.

A good case in point is making money on the Internet which I am going to teach you right now. You'd simply be a total fool to think that money isn't made on the Internet. You'd better look at these facts:

Did you know that...

The total amount of Online transactions in 2006 amounted to about USD $170 billion and is estimated to grow to USD $263 billion in year 2010? (Source: Credit Suisse; World leading Financial Services group).

The popular website Yahoo.com which offer you email services for free is worth overUSD $34.90 billion.

Nigeria Directory

The popular Search Engine, Google.com is worth $174.83 billion, and it is currently the biggest media company in the world. It is bigger than notables like Time Warner, the company which owns Time Magazine, CNN & America Online; it is bigger than Viacom, the owners of MTV and Paramount Pictures. In fact, Google is worth more than all the companies quoted in the Nigerian Stock Market combined! This includes Mobil, OANDO, Nigerian Breweries, Zenith and all the other banks (combined!). A single Google.com share costs more than $450 and it is projected to reach $600 a piece sometime next year - that's more than N50,000! a piece (compare this to that of say Zenith bank that sells for less than N50!).

In June 2005, the owner of Newscorp, Rupert Mudorch paid $580 million to buy MySpace.com. Can you also believe MySpace.com is free to use?

Also on October 9, 2006, Google.com paid $1.65 Billion to acquire YouTube.com. YouTube.com just like MySpace also has nothing for sale too - it is completely free to register and use.

Ask yourself this question: "Why would Rupert Mudorch, Google.com and several other companies and individuals too numerous to mention, spend so much money to acquire websites which have nothing for sale?" Besides, "How are these websites worth so much and how did that much money come about?"

The answers to the these questions are the secrets to making money online, and the reasons why the Internet is so overwhelmingly profitable. These answers are what I will reveal to you.

"If you do not fancy working yourself to death in order to earn a living...these opportunities are for you."

There are few hundreds of online market research and survey companies advertised their website on the Internet. It cost nothing to join these paid survey sites and once you became their member, you’ll receive emails inviting you to participate in an online survey that offers cash or gift as a thank for your participation.Paid survey companies are just like everything else in life, there are the good and the bad.The “good” survey companies and sites are those that actually pay you a small amount of money ($2-$5) or offer gifts every time you completed a paid survey

never sell your personal information to others, don't send your numerous sale e-mails that have nothing to do with paid survey, and let you know exactly how much you’ll earn for each survey you are participating.

Joining the good survey companies and sites are a good way to bring in a few extra bucks from the comfort of your home. They are usually reliable and reputable marketing research and survey companies. Their website will provide detailed information about the company background and operations; and paid survey earning incentives.The “bad” online survey companies are those that offer cash for taking survey, but send you so much marketing and spam e-mails to your inbox that you have to spending some time every day just to delete all of it. The "bad" survey companies can say to be legitimate as they do keep their promise of paying cash once your earning have reached minimum payout.

But they will continuously trying to get you to visit the websites of their marketing partners, where you will be pressured into signing up to learn more about affordable health insurance. If they see that you show a little sign of interest, you might be getting at least three calls a week from various telephone representatives asking you to take their offers.

However, there is a good news about these "bad" survey companies. There usually have an affiliate program you can sign up so that you can make money online by referring others to become a member the site. But you may be under pressure to refer people to join these survey companies as they are bad. These companies may annoy those members referred by you because they will keep on sending sale offers to members.

You will need to join as many survey sites as possible in order to earn a nice extra money monthly. So if you have joined the “good” sites, you’ll have nothing to worry about but be careful with the “bad” sites if you are a member of them.
