Number 1 : Comment on other peoples' blogs. This way, more people get to know to about your blog. And the chances of them visiting your blog increase. Great, quick and dirty way to get traffic to your site.

Why I simply LOVE Firefox!

I'm serious. Firefox is a damn good piece o software and the best browser there will be for a long time! It's so good that it captured the hearts of huge numbers of netizens, like me and, hopefully, you(!). I've gathered several reasons as to why I like the fox

• First of all, it's got a HUGE amount of extras that you can use to pimp your browser. For example, there's thousands of themes that can spice up the browser. And, there are hundreds of useful extensions and add-ons that add more functionality to the browser. My personal favorite is PDF Download. Match that with Internet Explorer!

  
  



• 
  Secondly, Firefox has improved security. Internet Explorer has been on the stage too long and hackers and that type of people have exploited its many loop holes too often and too much.People are sick of IE (except for the die-hard fans.
  
  
  Okay I admit that Firefox has some security issues too, but bug fixes are regularly provided, unlike IE. This helps keep Firefox on the top of the 'safe' list!
  

  
  




• Firefox has(it was there from the beginning) this cool new feature called 'tabbed browsing'. It's like multiple windows in one window, and it's cool. Tabbed browsing certainly saves a lot of time. Internet Explorer did not have tabbed browsing. It was only introduced in IE 7.0. How late is that!





• Another great thing about Firefox is that recently two new versions of it have been released. One is the Firefox Campus Edition, with every thing that a student needs. It has this totally cool note taker and researcher called Zotero and a music player which finds free streaming songs on the web and brings them right to your browser! How cool is that?! Get it!

  
  

  
  The other version is specially for those who use Ebay a lot. You're always logged in to your EBay account so you can get the best bids. And, you're securely logged in too. So no risk there. Get it!
  

  
  
  

• I've saved the best for last. Firefox has this totally cool feature which lets you read and configure your RSS subscriptions. RSS has become a necessity in today's net experience. After all who has the time to search for something when you can have it sent to you?

So watcha waiting for? Go get your free copy of Firefox now!

I'm back with a bang!

Yo fellas! I'm back with a BANG! I was gone for a coupla months as you know. Studies and Olevels and all that crap...

But now I'm back with a whole lotta ideas of what to write on this blog and you can expect some smashing articles! In fact,I'm just about to write one now!

The Posts are gonna decrease now...

I know, you enjoyed almost 3 posts per day, without much thought about the troubles that I had to go through, just to bring those posts to you! Man, it did take time writing all that!

Well now my school's starting soon. TOMORROW, as a matter of fact and I will have to lessen the amount of work that I do on the site and this blog. So, now you cannot expect or DEMAND more than a few posts from me.

What's a few? Maybe one? Maybe even none?? . No no. I won't go that much extreme. Maybe a post on a weekend or an extra one on a holiday (we do get unexpected holidays here in Pakistan, and with the political situation here in a perilous position, I think we're in for some glorious holidays! Yay!).

Well, that's it! I'll still be writing articles for the site(though not as regularly), so keep chekin' on that too!

See ya!

Monetizing your Website

There are several ways of earning money from your website, off the Internet. You could display PPC(Pay per Click) ads on your site and whenever some one clicks them, you get paid! The payment can vary dramatically. You can get 5 cents or 5 dollars for a single click. One such program is Text Link Ads, which allows you to display ads on your website. They have a huge collection of products you can choose to promote on your website.
Then there is Google Adsense, which is probably the largest PPC network in the web-o-sphere. They also have a PPA program, which has many choices to choose from. And best of all, they do not have very strict requirements that sites have to confirm to. They accept almost about anyone. Good for beginners!

Then you could also display PPM(Pay per thousand) ads on your website. With this type, you get paid whenever there are a thousand page impressions of your pages. The payment here can vary too, but in general it is low.

Then there are PPA(Pay per Action) ads. These are relatively new on the stage. They work like this: you refer(through your website) someone to the advertiser's product page. If that visitor does a pre-defined action on the advertiser's site (such as buy a product, sign up for services, etc), you get paid. These type of ads are usually difficult to convert but they usually are high paying.>

You might also have heard the term Affiliate Programs. These are programs you can join. You then promote the advertiser's product on your page and refer the visitor to the advertiser. The visitor(hopefully) then buys something from the advertiser and you get a commission from the total earning of the advertiser(from that single sale). These are similar to PPA ads.

So, which programs do I recommend?

Firstly, there is Google Adsense, which is simply GREAT for beginners! They do not have strict site requirements(like links, Page Pank, etc)and they accept almost everyone! They have a PPC program and a PPA program Their PPC ads are highly targeted and match your page's content almost always. Their PPA or referral program has many products you can choose from. Again, perfect for beginners!

Then there is Text Link Ads. This too is good. It too has a lot of products that you can choose from. But your site has to pass some requirements to enter their program. Read about the requirements on their site. They have an easy to understand interface and as I said, lot's of products to choose from to promote.
Text Link Ads

StatCounter Tutorial coming soon!!

Hey there you guys! Most of you must have signed up for the stats services I told you about in the last post. I bet almost all of you have had problems in getting the stats thingy to work on your site. Worry no more, 'cuz, a tutorial on how to use them is coming your way soon! It takes time, preparing it, you know!

Analyzing your Website with website statistics

Analyzing your website is very important thing that you should often do. You should check where your visitors come from and for how long they stay. And that which pages are popular with them and what the bounce rate
is. This and other things will provide you with a deep insight of what your visitors actually want and what they are seeing

There are a number of tools which can help you do so. One is Google Analytics. This is probably one of the best website analysis tools there are. It provides graphical data of the number of visitors, pinpoints them on a map, tells you the sources of traffic and the visit length of visitors.It also tells you about the computer specifications of your visitors. In short, it provides the most complete information that you'll need. And given the fact that it's FREE (yay!), we give it a 5/5. Try it out!

One more tool is StatCounter. It has two versions, a free one and a Paid one. There are lots of features in the free version, with the main drawback being that you can only record the details of your last 500 visitors. That limit can be increased by upgrading, though. StatCounter also provides lots of data, including visit sources, visit lengths, and lots more.

Then there is SiteMeter, which also offers a free version. It provides a lot of data, including the details of all(I think it's all) visitors. You can view in a world map the locations your visitors came from and their computer specifications.

There are many other website stat tools out there, we just briefly reviewed several of the best.
