Your questions answered

I am too lazy to go back to the previous posts and reply some of the questions. So, let me do it here with some linky love for you.

fake comment and hate comment.. which is worse? :P (vkeong)

On impersonal blogs like this make money or my recipe blog, I don’t get hate comments. But on my personal blog, sometimes I do intentionally stir shits to get excitement in the blogosphere. So, I would say, fake comment is boring because I need to delete them and hate comment is fun when it is me who instigate it.

I’m curious to know what happen to your smorty… u just ignored the warning? I’m planning to change my domain and hosting but afraid that i’ll have to refund the review money. How about PPP and SP? (slowcatchupkuan)

I never log in anymore. I still ‘owe’ them money but who cares…I have no intention of monetizing those blogs. However, in future, if I have any other new blogs, I can always open a new account. Muahahar..

Will google slapped our PageRank by writting paid post lilian ahyi ? Im worry about that..=.=” (kahoongchai)

This question is like asking me if the sky is blue. Please take your own initiative to read. I have written so many posts and so many times about being Google smack. I have a category on Pagerank. No one can spoonfeed you with answers every day.

I’m a newbie..

after our blog getting approved by linkworth, what we must to do?

wait for pending ads on our member area for start earning money?
or we must doing several steps to place somethin on blog?

thanks a lot

(manusia pejalan)

For Linkworth, we just have to wait. In fact, we always have to wait for advertisers so it is a bit depressing when no one buys. I have a section for Linkworth with all the tutorials which I hope to help.

Why can we sell text link ads? Some say text link ads is good to us to get back link.

Do you can describe it more. I am newbie on this. Sorry..

Do you have any text link on this blog?

This is really informative blog on make money online.

My pagerank rank is still N/A after two month.

Did i can join Socialspark event my PR N/A? (nasrun)

Nasrun, Google does not allow us to sell text links which leaks link juice. That means, if my blog has a PR 4, I cannot sell my links or I will get smack. But there are methods which I shall not reveal here. Do look through my old posts and see the various methods. I do not sell any text link ads on my selected blogs but I do sell it on other ‘unseen and unknown’ blogs. You can join Socialspark but I doubt you can find much paid posts because all advertisers want are pages with pagerank.

The next pagerank update probably is coming soon because the last one was April 30th. But don’t have too much hope of getting a pagerank cos Google is very strict. You need traffic, you need good relevant content and people linking to you.

I’m just starting on this, do they accept blogger blog? (blackcat)

I don’t think LinkXL works on blogger blog yet. But Kontera does.

I hope I didn’t miss out any other questions?

Blog Review : MyBlog2Day

KaHoong who is the author of MyBlog2Day is a regular reader of my personal blog and also this blog. He asked if I can take a look-see at his rather new blog and see how he can improve so that he can make more money from blogging.

I asked if I can do it blog review style so that more people can share their tips with him and also learn something from me. Hehehe, not that I have any expertise to teach. But let me dissect this new blog a bit.

The improvements you may want to note :

1) Focus

There seems to be too many things on one blog. Personal, food, make money and travel. The make money and the ‘how to blog’ topics are rather out of place on a personal blog which talks about foods and travel.

Food and travel blogs always have good traffic. I know this from the experiments I made. So, my suggestion is to break the foods and travel part into one blog and keep the personal and make money into another. Make money blog hardly makes money so you can lump it with your personal rantings.

However, do not open another blog and delete your old posts. You can transfer some post over to your new blog, change a bit of the contents, especially the title and the opening para, start writing new posts from there.

2) Blog first impression

Your blog banner is overshadowed by the other banners, especially the “exabyte definitely non-performing” affiliate banner.

You need a title to make people know your blog’s name. What is your blog’s name? Give it a name that people remember. Is it MyBlog2Day or the long description of Malaysian, Food etc etc?

3) Your money cow

Your Nuffnang banner - How much is the income from the banner? Is it worth putting it there? Is it a CPM or CPC banner? I assume it is CPC. If it is CPC, you probably earn only a few cents per week. Take it off and use Adsense and experiment and see? You can place the Large Rectangle banner for Nuffnang after your post or on the side bar. My theory is if you are targetting Malaysian surfers, stick with only one ad network.

When you just started monetizing your blog, you can’t be sure which will make you a better income. So, you have to experiment and keep track of the performance.

4) Clear the clutter on your sidebar

I notice you have those unnecessary stuffs like the live feed and maps and etc. If you want people to click your ads, you have to make your blog with the least links. Otherwise, all the surfers will go out from those links, leaving your ads untouched.

5) Too many plugins

I see that you have a lot of plugins like most viewed and etc. Usually, those plugins are unnecessary except for fun. Right now, your sidebar is really full and when visitors come to your blog, they may not stay long because it is so cluttered. Every corner is screaming for ‘look here, look here’ so in the end, people runs away.

Now, the good points…

1) You are very dedicated to blogging and I see that you update your blog consistently.

2) You are using the All-in-one SEO plugin or something that makes your blog post title stands out.

3) You socialise by way of reading other bloggers blog and this will expand your network.

4) You seem very eager to learn the ropes to make money and I am sure you will learn and improve in due time.

5) You don’t scam people with bullshits like ‘I make so much money with xyz company and you can sign up and earn like me’. Good thing because in Malaysia, our blogosphere is very small so never try this because people will remember and you cannot lie all the time.

Keep blogging and keep learning. Money will only start coming in many months later. Good luck!

Claiming money hassles

I have often written about preparing wills, buying insurance and stuffs like that. However, I didn’t know that it is such a hassles to clear up those necessary paperworks when a person died. Recently, my bro-in-law passed away after a short struggle with liver and kidney cancer. When he found out about his illness, he immediately arranged all the necessary paperworks. He was rather young, being only 53 years old and hence, didn’t do it earlier.

One of the plan he bought was the MRTA whereby his housing loan is fully settled after his death. Now, the insurance company and bank which provides the bank loan is creating a huge problems for his widow, who is my hubby’s sister. The bank wants all kind of documents, many of which had been surrendered to the authorities when they prepare his death certificate.

I didn’t know one can face so many daunting tasks like asking the cremation centre for a copy of the burial/cremation certificate, getting back a copy of his identity card which had been taken by the registration department and etc etc. It is certainly not a nice thing having to dig back all these documents from places which leave some sad memories to the widow.

Now, come to think of it, I think it is better off cashing back as much money as we can when we are alive and give it to our next of kin instead of waiting for them to claim when we passed on. Of course, that is provided we can afford to do that. Like for example, there is the cash for settlements where people can get a lump sum of cash instead of waiting for the periodic payment which may not offer the financial help one needs at that time. Then, there is the method of getting payment when we sell annuity .

Though all these may not be a good idea if we intend to leave money for our next of kin, sometimes, people may have to resort to it because of urgent financial needs. For example, at one point, my relative needs $10K each month to take care of his cancer treatment. He couldn’t afford it after his insurance claims exceeded the amount and he opted for public hospital where they gave him palliative care. So, we never know when we may end up with the same situation. We are better off aware how to raise funds when the situation calls for it. Find out how one can also get help when one sell structured insurance .

These are all preparations for rainy days. Now that I am more aware of the hassles of claiming a deceased insurance, settling his loans, transferring his properties, I will make sure that my family is well covered with adequate will so that my lawyer can deal with all the legworks and getting the paperworks done. I certainly cannot bear to go through so many departments and authorities if I am recently bereaved. My sister-in-law is lucky she has her brother (my husband) to do all the forms and etc for her.

Notice a huge pagerank drop on some of Malaysia’s ‘femes’ blogs

I was lurking around the blogs of some of the so-called ‘femes’ bloggers in Malaysia. Actually, I was just reading up gossips on those blogs. But if you are in my kind of blogging where pagerank is everything and traffic indicates if ‘my blog is bigger than your blog’ kinda mentality, then, inevitably, you tend to compare.

So, that’s how I noticed the fall of PR on some of them. One blogger who used to be a PR 5/10, dropped to only PR 3/10. The other drop from PR 4/10 to PR 2/10. Theirs are personal blogs and are supposed to be the most popular blogs in Malaysia in terms of bimbo-points. Hehehe.

Now, let’s take a look at why their pagerank drop.

They don’t sell text links.

They don’t put ads because they want to appear rich and don’t need money.

They have some local advertorials but those are far and few in between.

They certainly are clueless about black hats.

They have good traffic and are probably mentioned by every Ah Beng, Ah Lian and La La mui.

So, why did their pagerank dropped?

I cannot figure out too.

In terms of traffic, one has twice my personal blog traffic and the other has less traffic than mine.

Therefore, this whole PR business is certainly puzzling. Why do one hold on to good PR while the others dropped?

None of us will ever figure out. I cannot too. But it is interesting to observe and dissect.

Anyone using Streamyx 4.0Mbps broadband?

UPDATED : TMNet 4.0 MBps broadband customer service sucks. They disconnected my old line, leaving me without broaadband and say they will need 3-7 days to upgrade. I demanded them to connect back but now, they say they need another three day. Conclusion - TMNet 4.0 Mbps broadband sucks. Stay away. Jangan langgani Streamyx.

My dear hubby, tired of listening to my sons and I screaming “Blardy hell! Why is the line so slow!!!!!” everyday, decides to UPSIZE the broadband package. Right now, we are using the 1.0Mbps and Streamyx really, really sucks. We have five computers at home and as you know, with two teens, we practically want to kill each other.

The original price per month for the Streamyx 4.0 Mbps was RM268 but I heard that there is a promotion now to combine my house phone line with Streamyx and we pay only RM160. Currently, with the house phone and the Streamyx 1.0Mbps, we are paying RM115.

streamyx
Usual price

I hope to get some feedback before he commit to the one year package. We need to pay in advance. I know our home line is really, really slow because errm..sometimes when I accidentally found a friendly neighbour’s line, theirs is super fast.

streamyx2
Upsize combo

At times, I use my Celcom 512Kbps which is for my Sony Ericsson P1i (btw, that Low Gwo Burne cameraman of Lingam’s case said this is his current phone too ;) ) and it is bearable but still dead slow.

And no, this is not a Streamyx paid advertorial. So I can still say, STREAMYX, YOU SUXS!

Look! Nuffnangers stalking my blogs!

I am not sure if Nuffnangers notice the Community panel on your Nuffnang dashboard? It is on the left side where the analytics are. I am not giving screenshots ‘cos you either know there it is or you don’t need to know in the first place.

It is something like MyBlogLog widget where it shows you who have came by your blog.

And muahahahar…I know who is stalking all my blogs. I have 12 blogs registered with Nuffnang and I know who my fans are based on the faces I see in every blogs.

Nice!

On a serious note, I have informed Tim that I prefer Nuffnang gives us an option to choose whether we want show our visit or not. I do not like leaving footprints on blogs I stalked. That’s why I have disabled MyBlogLog as well. I don’t believe in community. I believe in invisibility when it comes to blog hopping. I am a spy……Lurking without tell tale signs……Because it is much more evil and wicked. Plus I hate it when I was signed in to MyBlogLog and people came by and leave comments ‘hey thanks for visiting my blog’. Doh, it made me so uncomfortable.

Lucky I work using two PCs, i.e. my Sony Vaio and iMac and two broadband providers. So I can still stalk using proxy, without cookies and without trace.

Just joking…I don’t surf blogs anymore because that was so yesterday. If I like a blog, I subscribe to it. If I don’t, they no longer matters.

But I do encourage new bloggers to visit more blogs, leave more footprints, gain more readers and make more friends.
