I am just wondering if there are some bloggers out there who graduated in University of Caloocan City (UCC) or maybe nag-aaral sa UCC.

I graduated on that school last 2007 and maganda naman ang result. Heto ko napasok sa kakaibang field na di ko alam na nag-eexist pala.

Meron kayang katulad ko na graduate sa UCC then now ini-enjoy and pagiging SEO o kahit pagiging blogger? Yung tipo bang nag-eearn talaga na malaki o kahit hindi ganun kalaki basta nag-eenjoy.

Try to search for the word UCC at ang lalabas sa search mo its either about sa Cafe o kaya sa mga churches. By the way, UCC or University of Caloocan City is the former Caloocan City Polytechnic College (CCPC). Sabi ng iba para din daw UP ang exam kasi mahirap pero mas mababa pa din ang tuition fee kesa UP. Pag nakapasa ka sa exam almost Php.1000 lang ang babayaran. Scholar lahat ng makakapasok and the only thing that you need to do is to maintain your grades. (promotion?)

Anyway, sana kahit papano may maligaw dito sa blog ko na magcomment na Ei! taga UCC din ako at successful blogger o kaya SEO na din. Hehe.

(praying) Sana nga meron. Para hindi ako nag-iisa. Hehe. Kasi logo nga ng UCC wala ko makita eh.

I have seen lots of blogger and SEO all over the internet world. They even earn lots of money just by SEO.

It maybe hard to do SEO on your site but, if you really wanted to earn dollars you have to do it. I know not all bloggers are on to money making but still you need to SEO your site just to make sure it will rank good in a search engine specially in Google.

Search Engine Optimization is a very long process. In my own opinion it is a non-stop process when you have a site. According to some experts SEO is a great way for your site to get noticed a free marketing strategy.

Chris Bloggs said that “Search Engine Optimization is a lifelong engagement”. That should always keep in mind. You have to make a site search engine friendly, with right keywords that are usually used by different people.

One of the way to keep your visitors coming back to your site is by writing articles, press releases and other information frequently. You have to plan every little details that you have to do for your visitors to check your site again and for them to leave a valuable comments.

According to Amit Singhal, a google fellow in charge of search rankings said that Google judges sites according to the subjective opinions of users who linked to them. She also said that Google believes that web are built by people that means a simple algorithm will not always bring up the best results.

For almost a year of doing SEO I know that what I learned is not enough. I still need to read more ebooks, articles, press releases and most specially join and participate to different forums. This is really a big challenge for me.

So, for those who are doing SEO for a long time is it really this hard to SEO a site?

"How the days have flown, even though I've been in bed more of the time. I still feel weak, and can't shake off that bad cough,"

That is the last entry that Olive Riley wrote on her blog http://www.allaboutolive.com.au/ while she's in a nursing home.

Olive Riley the world's oldest blogger from Australia died last July 12, 2008 at the age of 108. She was born October 20, 1899 in Western New South Wales.

She started to create a blog last February 2007 and within 1 year and 5 months she already had 70 messages on her blog. She wrote different things on her blog mostly she wrote those differences that the younger generations experiencing for example last month she wrote about the washing machine that we are using right now.

According to her grand son Darren Stone the blog of her grand mother was moved and can be access at this URL http://worldsoldestblogger.blogspot.com/

Hey guys!. I just teach some of my new friends how to blog. They ask me what's my work is and I told them that I am an SEO and aside from I am earning from the company where I work I also earn through my blog.

They ask me how so I told them everything that I know. We went in an Internet shop and then I started to teach them.

I am not that professional but, I think I can teach them the basic things that they needed to know and I told them that if they do have questions just ask Google.

One of them started to publish some of her works. I think she's a journalism student and here's her newly created blog.

SIMPLY ME..

I told them to use blogger because they don't have any knowledge when it comes to programming. So I guess blogspot is the right place for them.

They are all looking forward to earn a bit while studying and doing other stuff.

I told them that if they do have lots of things in mind and feel like writing it on a piece of paper why not right it on a blog.

Blogging is one of the IN thing this days and I have seen lots of people who are on to blogging even kids. So, for those who doesn't have one start your own blog now!. You will surely having fun.

Hey guys!..

I am currently working on my own domain right now. So in a few days time My Blogging Experience will be on its new domain which is my own domain. I am so excited!!.

My new domain is in wordpress so, I need to study first how to do it and I am starting to look for a template and also plug-ins.

I would like to say thank you to Hyperwebenable for giving me my own domain and it’s for free!

Hope I’ll be able to finish setting up my new site.

Good Luck to me! Hehe..

I have seen and read lots of blogs mostly in English and also other languages.

A few minutes a go I read a post from Dansoy entitles If you just realize, what I just realize. You may think that the title of the post came from the lines of a song. Yes you are right but, upon reading that post I realized something.

I know I am too late about this but I think I should start writing a post in my own language. Maybe on that way I can express what I really feel and that will make it easier for me to write new post every day.

Ok I will start..

Alam ko talagang napaka-luma na talaga nito at malamang huling huli na ko sa balita. Pero wala lang, narealize ko lang ngayon lang. Kakabasa ko lang kasi ng blog ni Dansoy e. Alam ko marami ng gumawa nito pero I don't care!.

Aba! halos magkapalupalupot na ang dila at daliri ko kung paano ko magsusulat in English. Hehe :D Siguro gagawin ko magsulat sa blog ko ng tagalog at least twice a week. sa palagay niyo, dapat ko ba lagyan ng google translate button yung site ko para maintindihan ng iba kung ano pinagsusulat ko? Hehe :)

Sabi nga tangkilikin ang sariling wika!. To think na malapit na ang buwan ng Wika dito sa Pinas. Hehe mukhang mejo madrama na to ah!. Ok change topic na siguro.

Gusto ko lang mag-thank you este magpasalamat kay Dansoy para sa pagsulat ng makabuluhang post na yun. Masasabi ko na napakalawak ng utak mo!. Hehe bilib talaga ko. Salamat ulit.

Salamat Ulit at more power (ano ba sa tagalog yan?)

Webmasters BEWARE!

I just read from a post of Vladimir of Vladimir Prelovac Online that his website are infected with virus.

According to him the said virus is a calling a script on online-channels.info site. Is this a new way of blackhat technique where a certain person or site will offer some plug-ins or services not knowing that the codes that you will add to your website is a generated codes that can drive traffic to their site or maybe revenues to their site?

Webmasters should start checking their files on their server for them to know if they are infected just like what Vladimir do.

myLot User Profile

I just joined myLot.com.

MyLot.com is a online community with lots of members from all over the world.

My Boss told me to write a newsletter for our company site. And he asks me how newsletter helps with SEO?

First we must define what Newsletter is.

Newsletter is an article that is regularly updated and distributed about a topic that is related to your site. Newsletters are delivered electronically via e-mail to the subscribers daily or every time there is an update.

Newsletter can also provide information about the company for the interest of the readers. It can be sold or distributed free to the subscribers.

Writing a newsletter can help with SEO by bringing more traffic to a site. But, this is not that easy. You must come up with the best article with unique contents and can make your readers interested to your main site or product.

You should consider who will be reading your article. A new and informative newsletter should be the main feature of a newsletter. Those newsletters without content and more of advertisement is not good. It can also be a simple instruction or guides, tips and also factual and informative pieces.

You should write an article regularly either weekly or daily and you should send those articles to free article directories and also free press releases for your article to become popular. A newsletter does not require being so long but, it should be precise and informative.

Writing a newsletter can make a site more popular and this is one of the best internet marketing tools. Your client/subscribers love reading different article about your site and also your success. Right now, there are many sites or people who are willing to write for a certain website no matter what niche you site is in a very affordable prize.

I started to join different money making site this past few days and I have notice that post of those money making site are requiring every member to have a paypal account. But, I don't have a paypal account!..

Funny right?!. I wanted to earn some $$$ so I register to paypal but, I haven't finish my account yet because I doesn't have credit card or a mastercard and now I think I really need to apply one. I need to decide whether I apply for a credit card or a master card. What do you think? which is more convenient?

I am searching around the net and checking some good site for some review from a blogging forum when I saw this site. The Blogthings, it is a site with lots of different quizzes on it.

I tried it and answer a question Are you a Brainiac? and that's what I got!..

You're a Part Time Brainiac

No doubt about it, you have the potential for big brain power. But potential doesn't get you to genius. It's going to take some work. Like most smart people, you enjoy a good intellectual challenge every now and then. But you do tend to shy away from anything difficult, frustrating, or complex. Push yourself to think, learn, and explore more... even when it feels bad. You have the capacity to solve amazingly difficult problems. You just need to let yourself do it.

Are You a Brainiac?

Try it, there are lots of fun quizzes there you will surely enjoy!..

According to Adsense Publisher Support the engineers of adsense will be performing site maintenance today June 7, 2008 at 10 am to 2 pm.

So I think the site will be down for 4 hours and we will not be able to open our adsense account at the given time.

The said maintenance is because of the comments that ads are not appearing on some sites. According to them the said maintenance will not affect the targeting or delivery of ads.

For more information and questions visit the Adsense Help Center.

José Carlos dos Reis Meirelles Jr. a Brazilian uncontacted tribes expert is one of the experts who discovered the tribes in the rainforest of Envira along Brazilian-Peruvian frontier.

Here are some pictures of the uncontacted tribes from dailymail.

As you can see, those pictures are taken from a plane where Mereilles was shot in his shoulder by an arrow from one of the tribe member.

Their body are painted with red and black color and their houses are built like a tent.

According to the anthropologist when they first saw the area they saw woman and children but they are not painted. When they come back after a few hours they saw those individuals covered with red paint from head to toe.

Miriam Ross of Survival International said those tribes in the Amazon used to paint themselves with different reasons and one of the reason is when they feel threatened. And maybe they painted themselves because they feel threatened when they saw the plane flying around their territory.

Ms. Ross also added that those pictures are evidence that uncontacted tribes really do exist.

And I think, those uncontacted tribes can be one of the reason for us to protect the forest. Because, the forest is their home, their source of food and also their survival.

Technorati Profile

As what I have told you last Monday, my $100 is on its way and yesterday I got it.

I get my adsense payment through Western Union and I am so happy. That payment is my very first payment from adsense. It is not that big but I am still so happy.

To be exact, I get $102.70 and with an equivalent rate of 43.66 in peso. That means, I get 4,483.88 pesos. Not bad right? For a beginner earning a dollar is really a big thing. To think that the rate of dollars here in our country becomes higher as day passes by.

Well, I am already working on my blogs for me to be able to reach another $100. Hope I can make it again and maybe a little higher.. :)

ATTENTION: WEBMASTERS

SEO Talk Forums is a great community where you can refine your online skills, share your ideas with a receptive audience and enjoy friendly chat in a relaxed way.

SEO Talk Forums (STF), brought to you by the same people behind the popular WebtalkForums (WTF). STF has just opened for business and starting to lookout for new members to contribute to their rapidly growing community.

STF aim is to make your membership of their community a positive experience by making everyone feel welcome and taking note of member feedback. You'll not find any of the petty and restrictive rules and infractions that typify some of the larger webmaster forums.

In STF, the more you post the more you're rewarded, with increasing signature rights and member privileges as you become a more established part of the community.

Come and give it a try and if there's something you don't like or you think they could do better then just let them know. STF promises to give every member's comments due consideration and will implement any suggestion that makes our community a friendlier and more efficient place.

If you'd like to try a friendlier webmaster forum then head across to SEO Talk Forums.

I think adsense users should be very much aware about this. Specially those users who uses their own domain in managing their Google accounts.

According to Google Adsense Blog, Google accounts need to be updated because if you did not do so, you will not be able to access your Google account soon.

Google accounts are requiring everyone to update their accounts from 'youremail@yourdomain.com' to 'youremail@gmail.com'

Visit Google adsense blog for more information.

Whow!.. after waiting for several months I will finally receive my payment.

Why for several months? well, I am having a second thought before if I am going to add adsense on my blog. To think that on my previous work lots of my co-workers are already getting paid off just by blogging and they are earning lots of hundreds.

After thinking several times, I added adsense on my blog I think two months ago. You can say that, it really takes time before I earned a hundred dollars unlike other bloggers. Maybe, I just don't want my site to be penalize because of adding lots of ads on it. And also I don't like the look of a blog with lots of adsense so i try to make it neat and finally I added adsense on my two blogs perfectly (i think!).

It also takes time before I earned a hundred because I stopped blogging for a month. Why? because I don't have my own PC at home so the time that I can blog is when I am in front of my desk on my work. But unfortunately, the company where I worked was having a hard time talking to their client so they decided to put as on leave and never contact us again. So, that's the main reason why I stopped blogging.

Now, I am starting all over again. I did not able to update my blogs for almost two months, good thing there are still visitors who still visiting my blogs. But now, I am going to update my blog maybe twice a week for me to be able to get my visitors back.

Have you tried to join lots of forums? Does those forums helps your site to gain more traffic? As an SEO, does it help you learn more things about the field that you choose?

Well, I am a SEO and joining forums really help me a lot, specially if I want to learn something.

There are lots of forums out there that will really help a SEO to learn different things. Aside from buying different books and searching from the net. You can also ask different web masters who are on the forums. They will surely answer you back that will make you improve on what you are doing. You can also ask them for some other tools that can help your site and even you as a SEO.

Some popular forums that I know are Digital Point, Google community, V7 Network, SEO chat, and many more. You can also join blogging forums if you want to promote your site or if you also want to ask something. Bloggeries, Blogger Forums, Blogger Talk, Authority Blogger are some of the popular blogging forums.

Through those forums your site can gain traffic. Usually, SEO and bloggers leave their links on their signature. Because of that links it will be crawled by Google and count as your back links. You can also ask those web masters if they can check your site and that's for traffic.

Those that I mentioned are some of the benefits that you will get if you join forums. But, as a forum member you should be aware that there are lots of spammers out there who will going to spam your site. Some spammers will send you a private message or sometimes they will leave some comments on your blog. If you suspect about someone who is spamming your site you can immediately report it to the moderators of the forums where you are a member. As a moderators they will check if your suspect is true and they will warn or worst they will banned the said member who is a "spammer".

I am already a member of some popular SEO and blogging forums out there and I can say that I am learning. Every time I logged in on those forums I learn something different. And sometimes I even help other members. As an SEO, I think helping other newbies are very much full filing. Seeing them improving and learning just like you.

As of now, joining those forums is really a big help. Not only to my blogs but also to my job as a SEO. They easily answers my question every time I can't understand something. Even though, there are some criticism but through that criticism I am improving. Those bad words can make me stronger and strive harder. And I think, I don't wanna quit.

Do you have some images on your blog? If you do, do you know that it can be used as a source of traffic?.

We added images on our blog to make it more appealing and sometimes to make your post look more lively. And sometimes we only uses images and there's no other text on it.

In uploading different images you can used different image hosting site such as ImageShack, photobucket, flicker and even google page creator. By using those image hosting site you have a little chance to lose those images. Because sometimes if you just copy and paste the exact URL of the image there are possibility that the images will lose on the SERP.

If you already do some uploading on the image hosting site of your choice make sure that you use good keyword names for your images. For example you have an image of a baby crying you can save that images with the name baby_crying.jpeg. In that way when a google will easily think that your site is a baby crying. Think of names that will be easily crawled by google you have to be creative in giving your images a names.

After naming and embedding your images on your site used the attribute "alt". As you notice on the other website when you hover your mouse on the images there are text that shows up. It means that, the site owner uses Alt tag in their images.

Here's an example:

The alt="Batman Begins' sequel the dark knight" is the alt attribute of the image darkknightkp8.jpg. Just make sure that your alt tag is descriptive and not too long.

In putting images on your site make sure its not that big. Because the bigger the images the longer it takes to load your site. You can use width and height attributes on that way, the look of your images on your site maybe smaller but when the viewer click it, it will display a bigger resolution. And also try to look for an images with a smaller file size this is also for the quicker loading time of your site.

Some bloggers uses CSS tricks for their images they uses div tags for their images. Through div tags you can put your images on the left side of your post or on the right and you can even add some border on it.

Through those ways that I mentioned, your images will soon be a big help to improve the traffic of your site and your site can be more visible on SERP.

What is link building? How does link building helps a site?

On my own definition, link building is a strategy where a SEO or blogger will look for different sites that are related to their site. They will collect those site and ask the owner if they are allowing link exchange.

Link building is the practice of obtaining links from other wen sites to your sites. There are some website who will allow a webmaster to link to their website for free and there are some that you will need to pay. It was said to be that paying for a reciprocal link are more effective.

Google are giving more importance to those site who has lots of relevant links. The more links your site have the more popular it is. One way that you can do for your site to be popular is link building. I know it is so difficult but if you really want your site to rank you will do everything that you can.

Through this article, you will find some information and ways on how to build links for your site.

I'll start with directory submission. There are lots of directories available on the web just make sure that you will put your listings on the right category. Directories are sometimes free and don't ask for reciprocals. And some are paid ones. Those free directories allows you to add your site but that will take time before they will approve it. You can also look for a link partner. Those webmasters who has sites with the same niche as your site. You can email them and ask them politely for link exchange.

If someone is asking for a link exchange before saying "yes" make sure to check their site first. You can do that by checking if that particular site was already crawled by Google by "site:domainname.com" where domainname is the URL of the site. You can also use some link checker that is available on the web like Link Popularity Check.

Article Submission can also help in link building. You can easily write your own article and just add your link to it. Then after writing your own article you can easily submit that article to different free article submission. Just follow their guidelines for your article to be approved.

Another way to build link is by social bookmarking. There are lots of people who is into it. Technorati, StumbleUpon, Digg and Del.icio.us are some of the popular social bookmarking site.

And last but not the least is commenting to other sites. You can easily look for different site with interesting niche. You can leave your link on the site that you choose just by commenting on it.

Those are some ways of link building that can make your site rank on Search Engines. But, looking for backlinks is not the only way for your site to rank on Search Engine and to gain page rank (PR). You also need to update your site more often the more fresh content your site has the more readers that will visit your site.

As a blogger, you want your blog to gain more traffic. The more traffic your blog have it means that your blog is so popular and usually the more traffic you have the more money will come to you.

Through this article you will learn how to boost traffic to your blog. I am hoping that it will help lots of bloggers out there.

Some bloggers think that setting up their blogs and adding some post can get them lots of visitors and even regular visitors. But, as a blogger if you are only doing those kind of stuff your site will not gain that lots of traffic. You are forgetting your SEO work. The On Page Optimization.

On-Page Optimization includes the content and structure of your blog. Thinking the best name is one of the factor and also the usability of your blog. A blog that don't have that good style is sometimes boring. Choosing the right template for your site that are good to the eyes of the reader and can be easily navigate is one of the best way to optimize your site to boost traffic. Most of the webmasters suggested that an about page should be included to a blog for the readers to know who runs the blog and for them to be able to contact the owners if ever they have some questions or suggestions.

Next is the content, your site should have unique contents. You should create a blog with the niche that you really like or you specialize. In that way, you can easily right articles or contents for your blog. If you have the most relevant and informative content lots of visitors will come and your traffic will boost up.

Social bookmarking can also help to boost traffic to your site. Some examples of which are Digg, Technorati, Stumbleupon and many more. Those three that I mentioned are some of the most popular social bookmarking sites with a large ranking.

Feedburner or the RSS is also one of the source of traffic. It is where you can automatically saves your updates and where the user subscribe for the latest updates of your blog. Through the feedburner, visitors will come back to your site to read your latest article or post.

Those are some of the ways of boosting traffic of your blog. If you do it correctly then, I am sure that you will easily gain lots of visitors and even make them come back and read more of your post.

We usually create blogs for fun, to earn money and sometimes to promote other sites. But, do you really know how to blog? How to do it right for your blog to rank good on the Search Engines?

On this article, I will state some tips and tricks on how to create a blog that will surely rank in SEs in a longer period of time. Those tips that I usually read from SEO forums that most web masters said.

I know blogging is a very exciting thing to do on the net. To think that you earn from blogging and get to know different people from different part of the world.

The first thing that we bloggers need to know on how to do right in blogging is what's your blog all about? What are you going to post on your blogs that can make readers be interested to read more. After spending several hours on thinking on the right niche for your blog you must think of the best title for your blog. You can make some list of titles you want and sometimes bloggers uses some tools for them to have different lists of titles for their site. Then, you also need to choose the right platform that you think you can easily manage. Blogger and Wordpress are some of the most popular platforms with lots of free templates available on the web.

Next, after choosing the right title for your blog you will start writing articles to be posted on your blog. Reading other blogs with same niche as yours can makes you more inspired and for more ideas. But, make sure not to copy other peoples articles. Your articles should be interesting and informative for the readers to continue reading it.

Many bloggers want there site to be visible on most of the search engines. If you also want to do that create an article that is keyword rich. You can include keywords on your title and also on your post but make sure the title will not be longer than 10-12 words.

Posting more often can makes your readers become more interested to your site because they learn different things everyday. Make sure to allow comments on your blog for you to be able to know the feedback of your readers.

You can also do some link exchange to make your site more popular. There are directories that offer free submission and also some social bookmarking. If you have a little budget for your site and submit your site to a paid directories make sure not to lose that directory all a sudden because that may cause your site to drop its ranking.

Other than that, if your site started to climb up and more and more visitors are visiting your site. You should avoid changing your website specially re-designing it. Because it has a big effect on the rankings of your blog. Nowadays, google has a filter for those site that changes more often. If you change your site, your site will be temporarily filtered by google.

You should also avoid spamming, the use of cloaking, hidden text and doorway pages are some of the spam techniques that can makes your site be penalized. And also make sure your server is up and running smoothly.

Those are some tips and tricks that you should do in Blogging. There are so many things that you need to learn if you really want to have a website that rank good in different Search Engines such as MSN, Yahoo and most specially Google.

Now that you know how to blog and how to do it right you can now start blogging.
