Persevere My Friend!

Check out my recently published content on AC the Nice Guy Always Get the Girl?

Some bloggers get so discouraged after a few weeks when they see that their blog do not receive traffic at all. If your blog is new, there is nothing to be sad about. Most successful websites started with little or no traffic at all. Probably you have not started to insert links in your posts yet. It all takes time. Linking to other blogs can help you get more traffic and pagerank as well. Better still, start commenting on other blogs as this is another means of gaining exposure for your blog. Perhaps out of 5 bloggers whom you have made comments on, two may come over to see your blog. We all get curious at times.

How to Avoid Scams On line

These days it looks like the World Wide Web is the main repository of frauds as more websites are turning out everyday and most end up confirmed as scam sites. Mischievous webmasters would go any length to waste people`s time and also try to separate them from their hard-earned money. Are you surprised? I am not. The times we live in has brought up so many individuals who care nothing about their fellow humans. Gone are those days when you could hope to do business on line without being scammed. I think that should be when the Internet was at least, a few months old.
Recently, I noticed how make-money websites are disappointing people all over the world. The ones i have known for years are the ones I believe collect your e mail and pretend to offer benevolent results for their clients. These include survey, get-paid-to-write or read, and get paid to surf, websites. Of growing credibility are those that encourage you to write your own articles, submit them and make money from those write ups. Among these are:
www.triond.com
www.reviewstream.com
Others are coming up by the day and I believe that as the year rolls to an end we will still catch some of these useless websites. I have decided to create a website soon that will expose many of these scammers.
While these writing sites are not just out to collect information, they also try to take advantage of writers and at the end of the day, not pay them. Reviewstream will use your articles to make money with Google Adsense but when reach the payout, they start telling stories [sometimes in bad English] of one problem or the other they had. See www.judchuks-makemoney.blogspot.com for more information. Triond as well has a way of making money in various ways with your article and not pay up as promised at the end of the month even if your payout is as little as $2.00.
I get infuriated at these shallow antics as much as anyone who knows the pain of sweating to write and not getting compensated at the end of the day. Also I noticed that some of us who may have been scammed fail to report such atrocities on the Internet.
So who can you start detecting scams yourself before you join them? If the site is new, it might present some problems since maybe only a few people have yet being paid or even nobody has got paid. The fact is that some paying sites have been known to change their attitudes later and stop paying their writers altogether. It`s like they start singing a new song and a bad one at that.
If on the other hand the site is old you must see some evidence on line that they have a good reputation. Why not simply visit Google search and type www.thesite.com and scroll down to see what you got. You may be surprised or amazed. If the website has performed to the apex you are certainly going to see from what others say about it. But what if there are no evidences whatsoever about the site as you may wish to find? well, another thing you can do is to join on line forums. To search, visit any Search Engine, and type 'get-paid-to-write forums'. You need to join the appropriate forum to get the best results. One more thing. You can also use the free services of Yahoo Answers or MSN to get the need information you desire.
If all these give you some problems or you succeed, please do me a favor. You can drop me a single line of thought. Thanks, and stay away from those snake-oil scammers.

Have you tried SFI?

Anyone can really make money with this worldwide Internet marketing opportunity! And you can do it without spending a dime or risking a cent.

This is the best affiliate program I have come across on the web. Compared to many other affiliate programs, SFI gives you, an opportunity to grow your business even if you are a newbie. And the setting up of this is totally free.


Unlike the impersonal sites I have seen in my search for affiliate programs, the people behind the organization have nothing to hide. Gery Carson, the president, and other members of SFI have their pictures on the site as well. Looking at the whole pages on the site, you find that they are all secure.
What really impressed me most was how the name and e-mail address of the person who refered to the program was revealed to me from the letter of the president, Mr Carson.

Once you take the “smart start” step, you become an SFI affiliate and are on your way to becoming an executive affiliate or EA. you start earning commissions each month and you get SFI`s products at wholesale price. Your commissions can also increase from 30\% to 60\%.
For any one wanting to make money online this is a real good deal!

Make Money Writing Online

Do you like to write? And do you think that you have the patience and hard work it takes to earn money online through writing? You could try Associated content or My lot for a start. You can make money through these sites if you are really serious about writing.

Both of these sites will reward you with the greatest amount of money. If you just want to make some extra pocket change, and do not feel like drawing up material with references, then try myLot, Helium, and WritingUp.

On the other way round, you could make extra coins by simply writing a blog like this. This may take time,but after your perseverance your efforts get to pay off.

This means that there are still a lot that writers stand to gain online. But you have to be willing to work to make some profit for yourself online.

The World Wide Web!

In today's environment, the Internet is becoming a major opportunity for every business field. Using the Internet as a channel to sell products is becoming more and more important, and popular, to many companies. It will soon be necessary to operate a global business from the business world. The benefits of electronic business, such as significant cost reduction, efficient distribution, and automatic business functions, are intrinsic to move into these new fields. This does not even include using the Web as an advertising channel to inform consumers about their products. Still, the problem faced by many affiliate marketers is how to reach a large audience.
As the Web evolved and settled down into a popular medium, it has begun to act as a source of competition to television in terms of visualized media.

Web users are now spending more time on the Internet than they watch television.
The tremendous growth of the World Wide Web has led to a mass of consumers and enterprises participating in a global online marketplace.

From the start, many researchers and business based scientists tried to figure out what make people absorb and pay attention to the Web as a communication vehicle as well as what potentials the Internet had in the context of a commercial medium. In the past, it could not be determined that the Web would quickly become the most popular system of the Internet.

But how do you get the word out to the right audience? Many affiliate program entrepreneurs fail woefully when it omes to advertising on the Internet. With limited funds for advertising, and a lesser know-how for those new to the game, frustrations start to brim up.Every marketer wants to have their own commercial Web sites to advertise and sell their products and to have some way of telling the world about their Web sites. My advise to anyone finding it eay to make money with an online affiliate program is that such one persists in learning the various ways to to promote their site while spending very little money.

DAPPLED DUSK

I was surprised when I noticed that I was growing some gray hairs. I had a sleepless night on the day I first noticed it. I`m acquainted with the words, 'who wants to live forever?' The answer to that is that a lot of people now have the hope to live forever. But now, what do you think about premature ageing?

It is a common thing in this part of the world to hear that a child has a stunted growth. But what with that child also showing signs of growing before his time? This the common malady in Africa today. Is something about our diet? or could it be that the suffering is too much?

I don`t know why people have gray hairs before their thirties or why they should start looking haggard before forty. Really, I don`t think that I look bad the way I do now, only that just too skinny a bit for my liking. I don`t think that I have really treated my body too kindly as well, due to the early struggle i had to step up to in my life. I cope nicely anyway.

Still I sometimes wonder how old people really felt when they first noticed that they were old. I pay an undue attention to those folks at times because I wanna know what`s going on their mind as well their hearts. Sometimes I have seen some of them behave or speak like young people. I think that this is because of God-given abilities that most people don`t possess. And you know what, I admire them!

The anyone can do to have a better future is to consider the future with wisdom. What are we doing now that can be a source of headache in the future? Smoking, drinking, anger,addictions? What else? The fact is that many things that happen to old people are the results of what they grew up with.

Lastly, there are some things that must come with old age: wrinkles, poor eyesight,weakness in the organs, susceptibility to diseases. All these are very likely to affect even a person who is considered to possess good health. But no matter whta happens now, please watch your lifestyle now so as to prevent a lot aches in the future.

Peace.

HOW DECISIONS AFFECT OUR LIVES

Sometimes, we all feel that we can at least do whatever we want. Isn`t it true that man has free choices as to how he can live his life? Yes that`s true, but there are some other reasons why it `ll be good for us all to consider our steps before we make the daily decisions we always make without a single thought.

Basically, it is not hard for you to wake up this morning, brush your teeth, take a bath, and leave for work after doing all those things you normally do everyday because they`ve become automatic. These decisions are easy to make and carry out. But other types of decisions can be dangerous in terms of the bad that can result from them.

You probably believe that at times your decision could make the difference between life and death or failure and success. Take for instance, a youth who decides to start smoking cigarette with taking into consideration the possible bad side effects attached to it. This could result into a lifelong struggle with lung cancer or some other debilitating disease.

No matter how good you are at making decisions, the fact is that we are all prone to make mistakes or miscalculations due to imperfection. But what is the best step to take when making decisions so as to commit only minor mistakes unforeseen?

According to the Watchtower of April 15, 2006, The best way to make decisions is to follow Bible-based principles or directions. It is true that the Bible reflects on practically all aspects of our lives and I think that it is surely the best for anyone. However, for those who do not believe in the Bible, and those who do not intend to live by its standards, there is still a way for them to make wise decisions. How?

Consult someone you think has more knowledge of the kind of situation at hand. It may not be too hard for you to know someone who has more knowledge in that area than you do. You can gain from that person`s wealth of insight for free and at the same time avoid prospective aches.

Secondly, whenever you make decisions, think of the advantages and the disadvantages. You may have to go for it if the risk is somewhat lesser. It`s all up to you. The importance of this is that even if some steps enjoy much success for a few years, they may lag into the negative. Long-term planning will ensure that you put up means of battling such expected effects.

There is no need for suicide when it appears that thing do not go the way you want. If you keep changing the way you approach situations, you`d definitely find success in the long run.

WHEN THE ROAD IS ROUGH

In so many places today, it is getting hard for people to survive. The very first obstacle to survival is the high rate of poverty in Africa and other parts where people live within the hostile confines of poverty and the common effects that it brings along. Basically, it seems that most of what we suffer are the results of things that had deep origins belonging to the past. Because of how so many suffer without a glimpse of hope, many have taken their lives and others have their lives impaired by depression which may lead to various types of diseases.

Not all those who had a poor beginning end up helplessly poor. We have learned from them and are still learning that we can turn things around if we really want to. What we basically need is much effort on our part. There is a single truth to help those who may have tried and failed in the past: Keep trying. There is no other way to it. If you keep failing, you need to keep trying if you really want to be a success story in order to inspire others.

Take a deep look at your area, I mean where you were born or where you grew up. You must know at least one or two people who have made an impact. Think of it, Barack Obama had at one time reared cattle with his father when he was very young. Yet, he has arisen to the high level of contesting the presidential post in the U.S.A. Does his past not show that you can make it, that you can overcome whatever you need to overcome in the future? Now is the time to start. Yes now is the time to start making that uppermost move to turn your life around. Why not also strive against the wind, yes, why not start rebuffing those hindrances that keep telling you no ever since you were born?

Your hindrances may not be about poverty, but it could relate to personality problems or a weakness you feel inside yourself and that gets you bogged down many times in your life. The same principle can help. Bad habits that you know must be countered must not be encouraged to the point that it becomes the king or the commander of one`s life or decisions. We have heard about people whom doctors had told that they would never walk again in their lives but who, with persistence and much effort start to walk again gradually.

So whatever your hindrances or handicap, you can make it.

Is Barack Obama Better?

He is the winning democratic presidential aspirant and a colored man. But his case has shown that sometimes black can be better. All over the world he is gaining much support and those who know nothing about his past even put up their trust that he is just what America really needs at this present time. To Obama`s surprise, he has the gained the confidence of people in other parts of the world where he can never hope to set the soles of his shoes on.

For his supporters and the rest of the world, he`s the messiah, so-to-speak, the candidate that brings light and hope. But can this be farther from the truth?

On the other side, much debate is going on about whether America is really ready for a colored president. Fair enough, I think that he is the representation of both sides of the United States of America. He is truly fitting to stand between the different elements of the American dream.

Change is the only constant thing and if the U.S is to have hers in this way, I surely believe that there`re a lot of people who`d welcome it. Transformation is about to sweep across America like it `s done before and the world world is interested in what many believe will bring out the better part of U.S.A.

Obama`s victory over Clinton has shown and vindicated the pressing issue that color really doesn`t matter in whatever carrier or undertaking a man chooses to thrive. Finally, when he hopefully becomes the president of America, will it mean that a colored candidate is better than a white? Let time alone be the revealer.

Can`t find what u looking 4?
