Layout is queen, and contents are king, thats why we must make this king to be good, because he`s the person who will make our whole blog look great, or vice versa.
To make sure that your posts are good enough, your post must be fulfil these :

Accurate - everything should be checked, including all facts, spelling & grammar (im not too good at this one :p)
Clear - when you want to write a post, you must know what you want to say beforeyoure begin to write it, and the person that is reading the post, should be able to understand its content immediately.
Keep it simple! - Short words and sentences are more effective and have more impact than the long ones.

2008-07-10T11:45:00.002+07:00

Yeah, I have a strange habit. When I want to to write for Teens and Money, I cant write it direct in the blogger`s post editor. I always write it in a book, and then type it in Microsoft Word, naah, after that, I copy it to Blogger. I know that its waste of time, but Ive been trying to write it in the computer,but I cant. I don’t know why, but I just don’t have any idea to write….

Cashcrate referral program offer $3.00 per referral. Wow, what a big payout! That’s why people always trying to gain referrals from anywhere, even people that they are don’t know. Yahoo!Answers as one of them. Many people post in Y!A only for advertise Cashcrate, so lots of people complained because its like a scam, so Yahoo!Answers decided to banned CashCrate URLs. So if you try to type http://cashcrate.com/123456 for the example, the URL will displayed like this http://*********.com/123456.

So to avoid this, if you want to gain referrals, suit it with the question, if they asked about sumthin that is in the same niche with what you want to advertise, you can answer it with the URLs of the site you want, but if its not, don’t try to do it! Youre not only cant gain referrals again, but you can get banned too!

For the traffic :

· Added meta-tags, meta-keyword, and changed title

For $$$ :

CarlOcab - 13 years old millionaire

2008-07-08T15:32:00.002+07:00

Yeah, he was 13 years old when he make his blog and start his debuts. Everyday, he goes to school, just like another high-school kid that is plans to play in a band, hang out to cafe with his friends. Now? He`s still an ordinary kid, with 'millionaire' word added. Maybe he wasnt the youngest bloggers, but he`s the youngest online earner!

He chose to host his blog in WordPress, because he think its more complete. With his blog`s great content, clean layout, and its guest post feature ( where you can post an article there), his blogs has got many visitors from all over the world, and the most important part is, his plog was in the frist page for '' Make Money Online '' keywords. Just for you to know, this keyword`s competition was soooooo bloody. I cant imagine how`s it feel if a site that is already advertising everywhere and spend a lot of money, was beaten with a 13 years old kid!

Actually, Carl`s blog inspired me a lot. Carl open my mind that is teen can make money online too. Do you agree?:)

The Easiest Way to get more traffic

2008-07-08T13:06:00.002+07:00

Do you ever heard about EzineArticles? Yeah this is a great article directory which gives more traffic to your blog. Okay, today`s lesson is about how to get more traffic with Ezinearticles. If you can make your article at the top of the article list in its niche, you can easily get more number of targeted visitors.

Now, the question is how to reach the top article list?

EzineArticles is closing article acceptance at 5pm EST. So,if your article accepted few minutes before 5pm EST,your articles will stay at the top list till next day morning 9am EST, when they are approving articles again. ( Wow, great isn’t it?). In that time range, you can get about 500 views, and 200 clicks.

There is one problem about the article acceptance. Its not easy to predict the time of approval,but you can try to get approved towards the end of the day. I suggest you to prefer publish your article on the weekend to get better results.

Actually, if youre a basic author, its not going to help,because your articles will be published after couple of days. But, if you are upgraded your membership to platinum author, your articles will be published within 30 minutes. Its certainly more easier to predict.

Hope today`s lesson help you to get more targeted traffic! ^^

Get money from ads

2008-07-08T13:04:00.001+07:00

Do you have blog/site? If yes, you can make a great extra income from displaying ads in your site. Nowadays, there are a lot of blogs that is made, and some of them are an addition for the other existing blogs. This is can be a really great opportunities to make more money,but nearly all of them, doesn’t diplaying ads. Maybe they don’t need it, and readers wouldn’t be lose out, but imagine it, how much money does they lose to get?

I don’t want you to make the same mistake like them, that’s why, today`s lesson is about how to make money with ads.

There are several types of ads; Pay-per-click, and commission.

Pay-per-click

If youre with me from the start of this blog, you must be knew what is it. But if you don’t, check it out!^^

Pay-per-click is a program where youll be pay, when someone is clicking at ads that is displayed in your site. But, don’t ever try to click it yourself, youll get banned!

Sites that is offer this program are :

Google AdSense : This is the king of all ads program, majority of the bloggers and site owners use it for their website. AdSense will automatically chooses the ads to be displayed on your site, so you dont have to scroll over many categories to find the most suit with your site.

ClickBooth : I haven’t try it yet, but a lot of people recommend it, because its high payouts in every opportunity. Oh, what I heard is, you will get a phone call from them too, when you are signing up..^^

AdBrite : Actually, Im not too recommend it t you, but you can try it. The navigation is so easy and simple. Ive been a member, and try it, but… I don’t like it so much. I don’t know why..

Commision

This type of program is a bit hard, but the profit is high.You can try :

Amazon.com : this one is the king of this type of ads, its easy to use and the profits are high. If youre site get high traffic, I recommend you to use this to get more income.

Yeah! That’s all, you can choose the best one for you, or you can try it all! But remember, don’t display too much ads, so your visitors don’t fell annoyed. Good luck!

Say no to drugs!

2008-07-06T15:55:00.000+07:00

When I was watching TV, I saw some teens using drugs, and must go to the rehabilitation. Its all come from teenagers`s smoking and alcoholic habit. Teens using drugs, maybe because they want to have their friends attention, or to join a group of famous pplz in their school. Do you know, drugs will really decrease their mental,health, and of course money! They cant live without drugs, and they cant save their money to buy CDs, T-Shirts, etc, because they have to buy drugs.

If you aren’t one of them, but your friend does, you can help him/her. How? Contact your social services of your local government, and there are many people that would be very happy to help, or if you can access internet ( of course you can ;p) you can go to some websites that was this problem specialist.

Maybe your friend will deny it, and think you are like his/her parents that is too strict to them,but believe it, your help will be really appreciated sooner.

So, are you ready to be your friend`s hero? ^^

Good luck, and don’t ever think to steal money from the bank, ok? ;)

SEO ( Search Engine Optimization )

2008-06-28T14:41:00.001+07:00

Wow, you know, SEO is very hard for me, and it will takes long time to describe it completely here, but I will tell you what is this and how to do this shortly…^^

What is SEO?

As what I said, SEO is Search Engine Optimization. That is means, SEO is how to make your blog in the first page on certain popular search engines (like Google or Yahoo!).

Wow, how to do that?

Yeah, you need a keyword manager that let you to know what keyword is rarely used. For the example is ‘money online’. If you try to search for this term in Google, you will got more that a million search results. That’s mean, if your blog is new, its very hard to reach the first page of Google SE. So, I use more specific keyword that I`ve got from the keyword manager for the example is : ‘money online for teens’, or ‘money online home business’. If you try to search for this term too, this term have more less search results that will give you bigger chance to get to the first page.

To download keyword manager, this is the best keyword manager I knew, http://www.goodkeywords.com/

Maybe this tutorials is not complete enough for make you fully understand about SEO, but I hope, at least this tutorial can make you know what is SEO and how to do SEO in a very simple way.^^
