Another great way to get lots of free traffic is forums, you can post on forums and talk about your site and it’s service or what product you offer, of course not all forums will let you do this to find them just type free “your keyword” forum on Google or any search engine. Become an active member in the forum, forums are like communities and they can get you a lot of exposure. Don’t just sign up to one, sign up to 5 and post as often as possible. The good thing about posting on forums besides the free traffic is you build a high quality one way back-link to your site that’s permanent! The more you post on these forums and the higher the PR (page rank) of these forums are the higher you move up in rank in the search engines, unlike the classified ads that eventually will be taken off the links pointing to your site on the forums are permanent making you easier to find on the Internet due to the forums high ranking. Doing both of the above consistently over time will bring thousands of daily visitors, you can make a lot of money online using these techniques.

Writing articles is a great craft because you submit them to article sites, whats so great about articles sites? Well 2 things, they both rank high in PR (page rank) usually around 6 which is a very good PR. Secondly like forums the links are permanent, but even better their more valuable since the article sites PR is so high. Now your in the big leagues. The other 2 over time will just bring you thousands of daily visitors but doing all three mainly this one (writing articles) will get you at the top, I mean 12,000-15,000 visitors daily but you have to be consistent and in due time your PR will increase dramatically. It can vary, people can get a high PR doing just these 3 things and in 18 months have a PR 5 which is very impressive. Making money online won’t be a problem once you reach this stage.

You have to be consistent. Now to really be successful at writing the article, write with proper grammar, follow the guidelines of the article site your submitting to and write quality content. Don’t write a paragraph about meaningless things. If you write well then other people will take your writings and put them on their site that’s another quality back-link for you. Just by submitting to the article site you will have a high quality back-link to your site, but if you write well then you will have back-links to the article site AND hundreds of more sites that copied your article with your link to their site. This is because when you submit to articles sites you agree to let it be republished as long as your given credit for it, nothing is modified, and your link back to your site is included. (as well as submit articles, articles in these article sites are republished as content to other people who want them as long as credit is given as stated above etc.)

Do all three of the above tips and in just over a year you can be ranking high for the keyword or niche of your website or blog. Making money online with out having to pay for a dime ever.

Firstly, you have to realize that the commonly used names – the ‘beachfront properties’ of the internet – are all already owned. In fact, it is accepted that all dictionary words havealready been claimed. That is because more and more web users have become well-informed enough to simply enter a likely-sounding name into the URL field of their browser. As an example, someone looking for info about coffee, or wishing to buy coffee on-line would just enter coffee.com into the address field. This gives a reasonable result, and is faster than using google. The owners of the site, of course, get huge amounts of traffic to their web properties.

Such generic names – like paints.com, forms.com, and so on may be open to approaches by their owners, but be prepared to spend hundreds, or millions of dollars. I take it as read you are not in this marketplace, which is ridiculously overpriced, but wish to buy a new, relevant name, which fits with your enterprise or subject for your projected website.

In this case, there are many clever options available. To explore them, I’ll use an example. My subject for the new internet site I want to create is collectibles. I do a quick check, and discover that all the suffixes for the word collectibles itself are taken - .com, .net, info and so on.

One way of proceeding is to add a relevant adjective, and so create a two word name. Things like small-collectibles.com, discount-collectibles or golden-collectibles.com may be appropriate for your site, and still give users a good indication of what your site is about. Using free key word tools like keyworddiscovery you can insert your keyword and find out what searches people are using when searching.

Performing a search, words like antiques, vintage, gifts and so on are well-used words easy to combine with ‘collectibles’, obviously if they respect the subject of the proposed site. Even MyCollectibles has a ring to it (think of myspace.com).

In some cases, this method of discovering what people want will actually reveal a good idea for the subject of your new site.

On the other hand, if your business or idea has a geographical focus, you can use that element with the subject of your site – mystate-collectibles, cheap-mytown-collectibles or similar.

Another commonly used option is adding a one-letter prefix. In my case, this would give me iCollectibles or eCollectibles, or the hyphenated forms, as a good set to look at. You could also use a given name in combination with the themeof your projected site, depending on how personal you would allow your site to be – jacks-collectibles.com.

Another way of proceeding is to buy a domain name with no meaning, and spend some effort on its branding. Words like google, orbitz, expedia and netscape are examples of this. It may be hard to credit, but these were formerly words unknown to any dictionary. Who would not like to own those domains today?

How do you do it? Well start by realizing that traffic reaches your website through links to your site. That is true whether they arrive there through search engine results or the direct link itself. There are a couple easy, lazy man ways to open up those linking doorways so your traffic can flow to your site.
Another thing you should know is that links to your site should be from pages that are relevant to the topics on your site.

You can get this relevancy for links to your site by submitting your site to quality web directories. Quality web directories are indexed often and the search engines will quickly pick up on the link to your site giving it a vote. The better quality the directory is the higher the vote is regarded. The more quality votes you get the higher your site is returned in search engine results.

That directory link will also provide a doorway for direct traffic to find you. So the traffic to the directory searching for quality resources can easily find your site and the services you offer and follow the link to your site. Submitting your site to a quality directory for review should take only a couple minutes. Nothing is easier than that.

So this article I am writing is taking me about 10 minutes to put together. This article can provide a limitless amount of lower quality but highly relevant links to my site. I determine the content of the article as I write and make it relevant to the site it links to in the resource box. In this case a high Quality Web Directory.

The number of links can be limitless because this article can be picked up and used by other websites so long as they keep the resource box intact. That means the link to my site. Anyone using the article on their site will provide me with another lower quality, but highly relevant link to my site.

That resource box link can also supply direct traffic to my site just like a directory can. People interested in the topic will read the article through and in some cases click the link in the resource box to get more information on the topic. They may also click the link just to find out more information about the author.

So you have two very easy, very simple methods for gaining links and increasing your traffic. You can submit to quality directories to gain quality relevant links which are really doorways to your site and you can write articles to be posted in article directories. Both methods will help you gain links back to your site. Directory links of high quality and some resource box links of lesser quality that could become viral. Both will drive traffic to your site by improved search engine placement and directly from the link.

If you have a look around, you’ll find that registering domain names can cost between $2.99 - $34.99 per year. It all depends on whether your domain name ends with .com and what features are included.

As a general rule, good .com internet domain names cost around $10 per year to register. For this price, you should get the following features:

1. Free domain name forwarding and masking. This is when a visitor types in your website address and gets automatically redirected to a different website address.
2. A personalized email account. An email account with your domain name that you can access from both your email program (POP mail) and a website (webmail).
3. Unlimited email addresses (aliases) that you can forward to any email account. For example, you could create three accounts with your domain name (i.e. info@… , sales@…, and feedback@…) and any mail that was sent to these addresses would automatically get forwarded to whatever email address you want.
4. Full DNS access. Be careful with this one. Not all registrars provide you with complete access to your DNS settings. You should be able to point your website to the Domain Name Servers of any web host in the world. For example, if you have a free blog at Blogger or WordPress, you should be able to change your DNS servers so instead of typing in yourdomain.blogger.com, they just type in your domain name. (But if you don’t have complete control over your DNS settings, it won’t work.)
5. Free Parking. If someone tries to visit your internet domain name, they can be sent to a temporary generic page that says your site is coming.
6. You may or may not get free domain privacy. When you register a domain name, all of your contact information (full name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number) is published in the WHOIS database that can be accessed by anyone. Some registrars offer a privacy feature where they will list their corporate contact information instead of your personal information to protect your privacy from spam and prying eyes. (You still retain full control of the domain name)

If a company is registering domain names for less than $10 per year, then look at the fine print to see which services you are missing. Remember, no registrar will give you a refund when registering domain names.

Adsense Black Magic bukan untuk orang yang tidak berani ambil resiko. Mengapa saya mengatakan demikian?
Karena:

• Teknik dan metode yang dibahas di dalam Adsense Black Magic adalah teknik black hat. Kalau anda tidak tahu apa itu black hat, black hat adalah teknik yang tidak disukai oleh Google. Jadi setiap saat, akun Adsense anda bisa diban/ditutup. Sebenarnya ada cara untuk mengatasi hal ini, yaitu dengan membuka akun Adsense lagi (dengan menggunakan nama dan alamat orang lain).

• Anda perlu secara konsisten membikin website baru, karena website anda pada umumnya hanya mempunyai nyawa sekitar 1-4 bulan. Membikin website baru tidak sesulit yang anda bayangkan, saya akan tunjukkan hal ini di dalam video training seriesnya.

Berani ambil resiko ? Eh… maaf, tidak ada resiko karena dalam 100% Money Back Guarantee 30 hari.

Namun, sebagaimana layaknya Blog berbahasa Indonesia biasanya sangat jarang dikomentari pengunjung apalagi dengan posting-posting yang tidak terlalu menarik. Mengapa komentar begitu penting? Entahlah. Yang pasti beberapa referensi dari para master bisnis online meyebutkan komentar dan backlink bisa meningkatkan pagerank. Karena saya tidak terlalu paham soal SEO, maka hal yang satu inilah yang diharapkan dapat mendongkrak pagerank. Mengapa pagerank begitu penting?

Pagerank dulu baru Adsense atau Adsense dulu baru Pagerank ?
Sebenarnya mana yang sebaiknya dilakukan terlebih dahulu untuk membuat blog bisnis online: 1. Buat di gratisan dulu seperti di wordpress.com dan setelah hits (dan penggemar) lumayan tinggi, hosting sendiri lalu apply Adsense, atau 2. Langsung hosting sendiri, apply adsense lalu bergerilya mengejar pagerank seperti yang saya lakukan dengan Blog ini. Buat yang sudah expert dengan SEO, kedua hal tersebut mungkin bukan masalah yang berarti. Ada saja cara mereka meningkatkan ranking, mulai dari kode-kode script yang njelimet sampai dengan cara-cara yang mudah dilakukan. Lihat saja Tips Ngeblog yang disampaikan oleh Pak Budi Putra di : Stumbleupon memang dahsyat untuk traffic dalam rangka menaikkan traffic blog barunya Blogging Line. I did the same way but It didn’t work

Selanjutnya, Bahasa Indonesia atau English ?
Untuk sementara ini mungkin Blog ini akan menggunakan Bahasa Indonesia dulu (sambil belajar English yang benar dan baik). Selanjutnya mungkin, masih mungkin, akan menggunakan keduanya, English dan Bahasa Indonesia. Bagaimanapun, Blog semestinya tidak melulu menarik US$ ke Indonesia layaknya TKI yang di luar sana. Namun juga memenuhi hasrat untuk menulis, saling berbagi informasi dan pengetahuan. Omong-omong, berarti Blogger juga bisa menambah devisa negara dong? Yang bilang Blogger itu sekumpulan pembohong dan pengecut, ke laut aja !
Tagline Blog ini pun mengalami perubahan dari ‘Review some valuable Webs, Blogs, Free Stuffs, Free Services, People, etc’ sekarang menjadi ‘It’s all about review, review, review and review‘. Mengapa? Karena pekerjaan paling mudah di dunia ini adalah membicarakan sesuatu (biasa disebut ngobrol ngalor ngidul), nggosipin seseorang atau mengkritik pekerjaan orang lain. Hal pertama yang mungkin akan saya lakukan adalah me-review Blog seseorang seperti yang saya lakukan kemarin dengan ikut Blogguebo Review Contest 2008. Bedanya kali ini saya melakukannya dengan GRATIS alias FREE tanpa mengharapkan apa-apa even backlink. Semata-mata hanya ingin mengasah keahlian menulis review. Bagaimana dengan Anda, bersedia Blog-nya saya review?

Here are :

• WordPress 2.5 Widget Interface - I don’t like it
• Missing some save buttons at WP 2.5
• New 2.5 editor is a disaster
• 2.5 admin backend annoying
• And others you can find here.

What’s wrong with wordpress developers? However, if you want to restore your previous version, you can see the tutorial here : http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/restore.

You can see now under the header there are some text ads from Google Adsense. Feel interested to become a publisher of Google Adsense? Why don’t you join immediately by submit an application ? Just click banner above to start.

I place another code at single post. At several posts the ads display PSA (public service ads) even the language of post using english. Usually, if the language that used is not english (such as Indonesian), PSA will be appeared at ads section. It drives me learn more and post some useful articles.

Today, I try to upgrade at localhost and it works! I check one by one every step that I’ve done. And bingo! I had missed some files while I uploaded the files to my public_html folder. Then, I do the same way to upgrade this blog. It’s done and works.

If you want to upgrade your wordpress engine to latest version 2.5, here I share the simple step that I’ve done.

1. Get the latest version by download here directly.
2. Extract the .zip or .rar file to a local folder. It should result 22 files and 3 folders.
3. Upload ( why don’t you use sweet fireftp? ) all files/folders to your public_html folder EXCEPT WP-CONTENT folder, because this folder contains your blog’s appearance setting. Don’t worry to overwrite, it’s very safe.
4. Then go to www.yourdomain/wp-admin/upgrade.php. Follow the instruction by click the link available. That’s all ! Go to your dashboard and see the difference !

I recommend you to try this tutorial at localhost before you implement at your blog. It will make you sure each step that you do and avoid error like me. But if you expert in wordpress, you can pass it.

What’s new in wordpress version 2.5 ? First, I feel faster to access dashboard. Awesome dashboard, more features and you can find the complete information here.
