To Be... or Not To Be...

That is the QUESTION.

WARNING: This post is slightly out of IM topic but it might pose to be a good motivational speech to all tensed and depressed marketer out there.

I had been reminded by my **** TWICE about it. He predicts that within 3 years of working in my current position, I would start smoking. Surprisingly, today I bought this...

A cigarette case.

"So soon already?". To whoever that is thinking that I had taking up smoking... THINK AGAIN! I had always hated smokers & cigarettes. Come on... there are a lot more pressure reliever out there! Could be sports (archery, huh... so great picturing my **** on the bull's eye), could be love, could be anything! Anything than smoking, drugs or alcohol.

So what on earth am I doing with this cigarette case?

Card holder la!!

Hehe... GOTCHA!! "A creative mind knows no boundary".

Sitemap

Everyone of you must be wondering what on earth a "sitemap" is for when you visited any website that was designed by a respective web designer. A sitemap is actually NOT for human to view but more for a web crawlers to go through in order for "them" to recognize and establish your site. It may sound a little bit too technical but you can actually do this. Here I would like to quote a little bit of what Scott Raven said in his Easy Traffic Now: Your Definitive Guide to Traffic Generation;

"Site maps are basically a file that shows the entire structure, including linking, of your entire website. Google has a service where you can submit your site map directly to them in much the same way you submit your site to the search engines. It does require you to have a site map in XML format, but you can find site map generators all over the net. To submit a site map to Google, simply create an account with Google Site Maps and submit the link to your site map. Google will give you a file name that you must upload to your site in the root folder. All you do is open up Notepad and click “save as.” Copy the file name exactly as Google gives it to you and then change the “file type” to html. Once you save this file, upload it to your site and tell Google that it is completed. Google will verify the file and your site map is submitted. That’s it. Very easy."

Maybe easier said than done for most people who are still a bit blur as to what I'm talking. Anyway, I've received an e-mail this morning from Jayde saying that as of April 11th, you no longer has to manually submit your sitemap to search engines.

"Last fall, the major search engines agreed on a sitemaps format. You can now add a simple line to your robots.txt file and let the engines know where your sitemap document resides on your site. Just include the following line in your robots.txt file and you should be all set:

Sitemap:
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml

Robots.txt has traditionally been used in a more prohibitive fashion - by telling search engine spiders where not to go on your site. This latest sitemaps implementation of robots.txt however is telling the spiders where TO go."
~ Chris Richardson of Jayde ~

So update your sitemap today and make it more search engine friendly!

Blog for $$$$$$$

You've read my blog and most of the time I talked about my achievements in blogging for gadget reviews. Now, you must have been asking yourself where to get this kind of opportunity, right?

Well, wonder no more because you can do that at PayPerPost! Just visit them and sign up as a member and you'll get the opportunity to see what are the topics available to be reviewed. You can sign up by clicking the button available on the dashboard at your right-hand side. Oh, by the way, you need a PayPal account to sign up.

P/S: Did you know how to roughly check either a site is a secured site or not? Look at the URL. A normal site would start with "http://" but for secured site it will be "https://"
