5xmom SEO roxs while P1 Wimax suxs

It has been a while since I bother to check my blog stats. I have been busy with citizen journalism and especially video journalism. Sometimes, I have to spend four to five hours on location just to wait for something to take place.

It is not rewarding in terms of monetary wise but the satisfaction is knowing that I have been able to report news as they happened. So many times, I have noticed how some mainstream media tend to ‘miss out’ certain parts in their reporting.

Right now, I am busy following through with some eviction issue that has taken so many twists and turns. I want to see a closure before I can finally reduce my involvement in citizen journalism.

To those of you who do not read my personal blog, maybe I should share what citizen journalism is. It is part of the new media whereby citizens like me report news based on journalism ethics. The above video is an exclusive interview I had with the Chief Minister of Penang on his thoughts on citizen journalism.

Now, what about P1 Wimax? Well, apparently, the speed at my place suxs. I blogged about it and didn’t think too much about that post. I just discovered that my post is now on the first page of Google. Not good….not good at all…..muahahar….It’s not my fault, ok? Google just lurveeeeee me!

Are you a full-time make money blogger?

lilian — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 17:25:40 +0000

I have just withdrawn USD500 from Paypal. Phew….at least I still have money to withdraw. Lately, my income drops because I have blogged less. The interest to make money blogging seems to take second place nowadays. Maybe it is because my income is more a buffer than the main one so it doesn’t really matter if I am making money or not.

The funny thing about being a full-time blogger who makes money is the lack of respect I get. Or at the other extreme, the kind of ‘I want to leech on you’ kind of interest. Sometimes, I know I am making more than those people who looked with disdain or disbelief when I say I make money blogging. They give me that, “HUH? Don’t try to bullshit. How many pennies can you make from those ads?”

People just don’t believe that we can make money from blogging. I wonder how those professionals who make a living out of online work feel? For me, it doesn’t matter because I am not exactly a full-time blogger as I didn’t sacrifice a ‘real profession’ to stay at home making money. But I would feel terribly discouraged if I am to tell the world I am a full-time blogger because no one believes. They probably think we are ‘good for nothing, too lazy to find a proper job, too stupid to make it in the corporate world, must be some scammer at work’ kind of citizens.

Anyway, I am still on my sabbath and did not really keep up with the latest development in make money blogging. In fact, I almost getting too lazy. Yesterday, I tried changing my personal blog theme but midway, I dropped the idea because I suddenly realised I don’t care about SEO optimised, good ads positioning or care about inserting tracking codes etc. Looking at PHP codes suddenly become too tedious and mind numbing for me.

I wonder what will happen to me in another month or two but never mind…I shall place my trust in God. If I need the money, I will work hard and earn more. If not, I will enjoy doing other things. BTW, did you listen to Darren Rowse’s sharing about the Christian’s faith? I was like, ‘Oh wow…the problogger talking Jesus is just so glorious. It is nice to know that he is not only a blogger but a God loving man. God bless him.

This blogger has two blogs on the top 35 blogs in Malaysia..

lilian — Tue, 19 May 2009 15:55:20 +0000

Actually, I have totally forgotten about Techno-roti and Alex-sai. I guess too many years of competing has made me jaded to these rankings and such. However, it is an honour to see two of my blogs up there on Riceblogger’s list of Top Malaysian blogs.

I think my Best Recipe Blog at http://www.malaysiabest.net would rank very high because it has more traffic than my personal blog which is on position #15.

This Make Money blog is on #34 (or #33 if you notice my webhost Bryan has two rankings).

Thanks, Adi! It is a nice thing to feel ‘On the top of the world’ sometimes…

And sorry there are not much updates at the moment because I am deeply involved in video filming, video journalism and video editing. It is one of those passions that I pursue till the ends of the earth until I find something else to amuse myself. Right now, money is not so important to me. Making a difference in the lives of others through my video camera is.

Just a sample of the things I do lately….Until the money bug bites, I think I won’t be updating so often.

You stupid lameass Jackson of stupid domain chaching

lilian — Sat, 02 May 2009 05:51:47 +0000

You and all the worms of the earth probably do not know that you get peanuts stealing other bloggers’ blog posts and use it as your own. You should go back to your mother’s breast and learn that unless you work aka suck your mother’s breast, you won’t get milk.

And you lame Jackson took my blog posts, and have the nerve to post it as ‘Posted by Jackson’.

Next time, if you or another oxymoron wishes to make money, go learn about the trade. Stealing blog posts won’t help you. Especially those blogs about making money.

And for goodness sake, don’t be so stupid to steal posts and do not know how to make sure your pingbacks don’t show on the bloggers’ blog whom you stole the posts from. If you want to be a thief, know how to clean your arse after you shit.

UPDATED : LOL, the moron actually auto blogged the post I dissed him. Screenshot taken from his blog.

Bawlsss I just declined a USD100 post because I don’t sell sex toys!!!

lilian — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 12:22:56 +0000

I just declined a USD100 paid post. It took me so long to find what excuse to tell the advertiser without sounding like a prude.

Actually, it is not so hard to crap about some vibrator. I am very sure my readers will be amused and have plenty to talk about in the comment board. But I just can’t bring myself to be seen selling sex toys.

It is part of my religious faith, part of my readers’ expectation and part of my integrity. Heh, as if I have any.

Anyway, I think we have to have some principles and shouldn’t be swayed by the money factor. So, I am poorer by USD65. USD65 which I can buy a lot of stuffs, including a rabbit. Hehehe.
