Google the Voting System – Website Page Rank 2007-03-23 14:51:25 The Google
voting system and how it affects your website popularity. Ok, how the voting system works when someone places a link to your site on their site Google sees it as them voting for your website. So someone voted for your site this means that the Google-bots then think ok this site is important enough to have another site linking to it. Next step the Google-bots checks to see what the ranking is of the website and if it is not at least 4 of 10 then the incoming link will more than likely not count for you in a sense. What does this mean?
The reason behind this is that Google is trying to provide quality content sites that have more exposure by using this page ranking system to only allow sites with relevant quality content for the output of Google searches.
Simply put Google ranks pages based on a “vote” cast system. A link from a relevant popular website is the best way to increase your Page Rank score not your brother’s Cow & Pig Blog with one v Read more:Voting

Blackhawk - Belgium to Paris France 2007-03-22 21:36:46 My free Blackhawk ride to Paris
today was pretty exciting I must say maybe you could say a once and a life time experience being able to cruise above the countries of Belgium
and France
at a speed of 150 miles per hour (top speed 218) and around 1000 feet altitude.
I do not want to mislead you here this is not the normal war fighting Blackhawk it has been modified in the inside to take VIPs to different locations so I was riding in the comfort of leather seating and at arrival in Paris France I had a nice cappuccino and then we were on our way back to work.
Take Off!
In Route to Paris France!
Some Where in Belgium!
Paris France Eiffel Tower Straight Ahead!
Helo Landing for Fuel and Cappuccino!
Free at no cost to me I enjoyed this ride from Belgium to Paris France. How did I do it, for those of you that may have missed it when I stated what I do for a living in the beginning of my personal blog. I am U.S. Government employee working in Belgium as a Computer Services /
Make Money 2007-03-21 13:12:24 The title of my article is merely me testing out posting an article (SEO) with my anchor selection make money to see how much it helps my ratings for the searches of Google. I’m no SEO expert but all I can really say that I am in a learning process and I know that others are using keyword anchors and becoming successful in their search rankings from Google.
I have a suspicion that SE’s like Google have well over a hundred factors that determine the ranking of sites such as the outbound and inbound links.
From experience I can say that the titles (tags) of your articles are very important and when the keywords are searched you will receive more hits depending on the title of your article. An excellent tool to use for monitoring your keyword progress, page views, and just over all performance of your site is Google Analytics and it’s free.
I’ve been using it from the start of my blogging hobby and it has prove very useful in this area. As you can see from the sc Read more:Money

Popularity Contest Plugin for WordPress 2007-03-19 17:05:56
This a plugin that I had not gotten around to installing to my selection of best plugins and a reader this weekend recommended that I should get it installed download it here. The PopularityContest
plugin is just like many other Wordpress plugins was extremely easy to install and activate. The problem I then faced was that I wanted a top posts page at the top of my blog and the plugin does not come with any page templates. So what I did at the end of day after many hours of trying to figure this mess out. I used the page_archives.php file and edited it with the necessary code that the popularity contest plug-in needed to display on the page template (Top Posts).
This plugin will help you see which of your posts are most popular. Views, comments, etc. are tracked and given configurable point values to determine popularity and then can be displayed on your sidebar or a archive page.
My code Top Posts (Page Template):

I on the other hand was expecting much more from this safari. When making my way through the safari drive I was excepting lions, tigers and bears to be right along side our Landover but this was not the case. Well at least I am not writing an article right now on how a bear or giraffe destroy our car and the kids have not been eaten today.
I actually had every intention of lying on this post and telling you of how close I came to being eaten by that bear and leopard but I am to honest. The truth is that my Sony digital camera has an excellent zoom and I was able to zoom right in on them from the Landover. In case you were somewhat Read more:Safari
The Mentor – Think Before You Open Your Mouth 2007-03-16 20:36:34
I am addressing this today because it has come up on more than one occasion that I am a copy, diehard fan, and John is even my idol. So today I will set the record straight in regards to John Chow and how I view him and his blog. John Chow is a mentor of blogging and that is it nothing more and nothing less.
Mentor
defined a person who provides guidance and recommendations to a more junior person for courses of action and behavior.
Since people continue to say these sort of things I feel it is necessary to have a lesson on the rules to becoming successful in life. I started this personal blog and I intend to make it as successful as I can “No limitations Just You and Your Keyboard” Just as my quote states I have know intentions of becoming a failure and blogging without a successful objective.

Secure PHP Contact Form Plugin 2007-03-24 20:39:33 I finally took care of my contact form today just one more thing that I have been putting off because to be honest installing plugins and then editing css code is really the last thing on my list that I would actually call fun. Just one big f-ing headache if you ask me I prefer to just write my articles and then post them.
I love Wordpress but if I had to review it I would say it is just one big apple tree without any apples (apples being plugins).

Top 10 Methods to Find New Readers 2007-03-27 11:56:32
I know that I have been on the subject of increasing RSS & Readers the last few articles but I feel it is an important area of successful blogging. So today I figured that I would post one more article this week on my top 10 methods that I feel are the most valuable for getting your RSS & Reader increase on. Then I promise I will lay off the subject for while with the exception of responding to comments on the subject of course.
You have to be persistence after you start your blog you can not just set back and expect traffic to just flow in because you are posting articles.
Write effective post titles (opening line) that cause your readers to feel need to read your entire post.
Quality content is an obvious and will help increase both traffic and commenting flow to your site.
Posting frequently but keep to a routine time schedule. I post a minimum of one article a day six days a week Monday – Saturday.

Increase Your RSS Feed Subscriptions 2007-03-26 15:19:19 The question is how to get people to subscribe to your RSS feed? It’s an excellent question and actually one that I am still working on my self. Just a quick observation of the blogs in comparison to mine that are around two months old I feel that the amount of subscriptions are going quite well so far but I want to increase them past the sky. The first thing you should ask yourself is do you have content that is actually worth subscribing to because if not why would you even expect someone to subscribe to it and want to read it.
If you’ve notice I have placed my RSS feed subscription button up top. A problem that I have noticed on some blogs that I have reviewed lately is that they are placing their buttons at the bottom of their blogs or in the midst of a pile of colt err that would take weeks to find like damn contact emails that seem impossible to find on some blogs.

Turning Page Views Into Profits 2007-03-28 12:10:56 Readers that have been following my site for the last 8 weeks (10 – Feb – 28 – Mar) know that I have been experimenting with different Network programs such as Amazon and Auction Ads to try and find the best suitable one to fit the needs of the site. I did not like the format of Amazon and it seemed that Auction Ads was making the site load slow. However I was making money with Auction Ads so later on I may find another use for them from time to time. Last night when I was reviewing a site that exchanged links with me had this network called Chitika eMiniMalls a beta program that was recently released by them.
So I went to investigate a little further and liked what they had to offer. The signup for Chitika is really simple just input your personal details and site details of course. When signing up they do have requirements which are they only accept sites with at least 10,000 monthly page views, contain significant, good quality content and are predominantly in Englis
E Savings Account Where’s Your Money 2007-03-30 13:00:01 This subject actually came up yesterday when a colleague was talking about how they were unsure what they should be investing their money in. The first question I asked was where do you have your money now and of course it was setting in a savings account that draws around the National Average of 0.82% (U.S.). I know that there are different averages internationally but I am going to focus on the (U.S) since that is where I am from.
This is something that you hear all the time (I do not know how to save) well at least I do anyway. An easy solution is take charege of your life and start putting your money into the highest yielding savings account you can find, until you can get your head out of your ass and learn or find a financial advisor to help sort you out. Why is it that people spend more time researching what cars, pizzas, and clothes they are going to buy than they do on how to save and what the best possible place is for their money?

Netgear SPH200D Cordless Phone with Skype 2007-03-29 11:30:47 Anytime I buy something that I am excited about or really believe in I will be posting an article about it. Anyway last week we disconnected our home phone because we were sick of paying the Belagcom Phone Company that like to take all of your money so now we just pay them for the internet access, which is still high - 43 euros! ($58).
Remember the XPS 1210 that I purchased around a month ago well I love it and it came with some free minutes on Skype
so I signed up of course and that is what lead me to canceling my home phone line. What’s great about Skype is you can call other people with Skype for free anywhere in the world and if you want to call a landline or mobile just add credit to your account in 10 (currency) increments.
My currency here is Euros so it cost me 10 euros and 0.017 per minute to call the States and England our two calling destinations we call all the time. So far for this month we still have around 4 euros left for credit and compared to our landline Read more:Cordless

Site Design Screen Resolutions and Browsers 2007-03-31 10:00:40 Ok clearly 1024×768 screen resolution is the most popular on my site and according to statistics this resolution is dominant across the net. As you can see from the Google Analytics percentage graph below this resolution is used by 40.58% of the reader traffic that comes to my site.
However as you can see there are also other resolutions to take into consideration when looking at your over all site design and how it appears to all users. So with this in mind today I took a look at my site in some different resolutions to include; 800×600, 1024×768, 1280×1024 and 1600×1200 to insure that my site meet the standards the readers require when coming to the site.
After testing my site today in the resolutions above I have decided that I like my site best in 1280×1024 a little smaller but looks the best in my opinion and is preferred by 21.74% of traffic coming to my site. Before my testing today I was with the majority on resolution 1024×76 Read more:Resolutions

When my wife and I first started blogging we signed up for the free Blogger account and our address was http://fashionbyjakel.blogspot.com which still works but recently Blogger allowed the use of your own domain address.
How is this possible by going to the DNS control panel of your domain manager you are able to setup a CNAMES (Aliases) record that points to the hosting of choice. So we then pointed our domain http://www.jakeldaily.com to the Blogger free hosting and changed the settings in the Blogger control panel to point to our domain name.
Around a month after that is when I had decided to start my personal blog and I wanted to use the same domain so in order to do this I installed Wordpress directly in the root directory giving me the addr

Report A Site Problem - Giving Credit 2007-04-04 08:43:31 Yesterday I was emailed from my contact form “report a site problem” from Adam the editor of TheAdambox and Blogbait. He reported this problem after reviewing my site for the review linkback promotion.
Message:
I would highly recommend getting rid of payperpost, I was going to comment on a few of you posts, but gave up since it took about 30-60 seconds for payperpost to finally reply while trying to bring up your site. Many others such as JohnChow will not use it because of the same issue. I have DSL and it is definitely payperpost that is slow.
If there are any site problems you are aware of or things that you would like to see made better then just email me and I will definitely give you credit if I use your recommendations.
I have already noticed that when I use AuctionAds’ javascript in my main index it also makes the site load slower and that is why I have changed to Chitika ads.

Make Money - The Power Of The Anchor Text 2007-04-06 11:00:12 Well, those of you that have been reading daily already know that I am attempting to get listed on the first search page via Google for the term “make money.” I have not yet accomplished that but however yesterday I noticed that I had made it into the top three for another term “linkback review” on the first page.
I am on page 1 of Google for the term “linkback review” in the position of three and four. Yes guess who I am directly behind for the first position and second position “John Chow”. Not bad I say since I’ve only been at this for two months now and already third in the race for this Google search term.
So how does this translate as far as getting more traffic flow? I checked with overture keyword search program and there are no static’s for this search phrase as of now. I am thinking though that maybe eventually when this linkback review catches on with more people across the net that maybe the static’s will increase for searches of this Read more:Money

Quailty vs Quantity Blog Posting 2007-04-05 11:00:22 It seems that many people get caught up in the idea that the more they post the more money they will earn. This is not true at all and is actually far from it! It is common to think but there are many factors besides the quantity you post and the truth is there is really no correct answer to this question. As with most things in life it’s just one man’s/women’s matter of opinion on that particularly subject.
Ok obviously the larger your blog is the more chances you have at making more money. With that in mind say you are posting 5 to 10 articles a day and still no money in your pocket. What do you think the problem is then? Really simple right; no one is clicking, buying or even asking for paid reviews from your site.
But you are posting mega tons to your thriving blog! I’m willing to bet your dad’s chicken that it is more than likely mega crap you are posting with bad ad placement and people are coming and then leaving within seconds, never to return again.

Make Money Review My Blog Negative vs Rude 2007-04-05 08:54:00 One review has been removed due to the person being rude about my wife and me which I will not allow on our site. If you want to be negative about the site that is fine as long as their are no bad words (swearing) and it is somewhat constructive. Our policy states positive and negative but does not state rude comments and they will not be allowed. If you are a site that makes fun of other sites that is fine as long as you state that is what you are going to do. We have not got time for people that have nothing better to do with there time and if you think bad comments or rude reviews will pass through on our site think again.
I have already given an example that I will approve if the only thing you know how to write are rude remarks. If you choose to write a review there is a difference between negative and rude remember this when writing the reviews and the review will be approve. Make Money

Make Money Triple AdSense Earnings 2007-04-07 09:48:51 I’ve been using the competitive ad filter for quit some time now and I was thinking that maybe not everyone knows about it and how it works. My article about Diversify Your Revenue Basket a lot of people responded that Google AdSense was the major income revenue of choice for their blog. So with that in mind lets start getting the most out of it. The purpose of the ad filter is is enables you to block out specific ads, such as competitor’s ads and site that are Made for AdSense (MFA).
