Secret for Successful Marketing

ayel — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 23:47:07 PST

ONE OF my co-teachers here have been involved so many business ventures but he failed in most of them. He has had an outlet in the public market, which eventually had to close. He had other ventures, too, in which, as I said, he did not make it big.

I asked him recently about it and he told me what he lacked -- a sturdy system. He did not systematize his business from production to promotion and marketing. He did business the traditional way, in other words.

Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools

ayel — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 00:58:02 PST

IN MY quest of improving my site's standing on Google Search Engine, I have just discovered these features on Google that I hope would be helpful. I just signed up on Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools. I have been hearing about these in the past but I just didn't pay attention because I didn't understand what they are for. Although, even now, I still can't figure out quite well how these stuff work. There is no harm in trying I suppose. I'll be posting reports on what improvements I would be able to make about my blogs with the help of Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools. Wish me luck.... (more)

The Pacquiao-dela Hoya Fight Effect

ayel — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 23:35:23 PST

I'VE HAD several attempts at doing SEO. Well, with my limited access to the internet I can't really get into the full blast of it as evidenced by my low income. However, I enjoy it when I earn some traffic due to some posts. One experience that really amazed me is the result of the Pacquiao-dela Hoya post I made on two of my blogs: Pacquiao-dela Hoya fight Video and Pacquiao-dela Hoya video replay. They were just trial posts. Sort of experiment. I actually, did not real stuff about SEO. I just compied what other SEO bloggers are doing. I did not expect that it would turn out the way it did...

My Town Doesn't Have a Hospital Yet

ayel — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 16:21:48 PST

WHAT IS really sad about my home town is that, we don't have a hospital yet. Even as it applies to become a city, it certainly isn't good that it doesn't have medical facilities, not even used medical equipment, to cater to the needs of the its 78, 000 people.

According to a Visual-Asia report:

Content is Still King

ayel — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 06:05:56 PST

THERE ARE so many blogs that exist today but many of them do have anything useful to say. It's traffic that they want so they use tactics, good or bad, to drive people into their blogs only to be disappointed by the result of their query. There are sites in the Philippines that are keyword rich. These blogs come up everytime you use popular search engines. But to your dismay, these blogs do not actually contain the things you are looking. Yes, the keywords are there but they don't actually contain valuable information that you could use. It's all about money. But I couldn't allow myself to... (more)

They call me the technician

ayel — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 02:03:13 PDT

IM JUST so amused with myself. No, not really with myself but with how quickly I get to learn how to operate electronic devices even when it's the first time I get hold of such. When I was in high school, I used to operate our copier. My teacher asked me to help her photocopy some handouts. She didn't know how to operate the machine so I came to help her. I just pretended that I know how but gladly, the task was accomplished just in time. Other teachers would also ask me to install Printer cartridges. Although I didn't have a personal computer and never had experienced installing printer... (more)

Money and Happiness

ayel — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 07:27:51 PDT

MONEY ISN'T everything. That is what we've always been taught. But nowadays, it seems that money is of utmost importance to most people. Everyone here seems to be in the grind to earn money. Lots of money, to tell the truth. This morning, I had a talk with one of my co-teachers and she told me about their plans of going abroad and how far have they gone in terms of the paperwork. She told me that she's determined to finish her Ph. D. here so that she can expect good pay abroad. "What's the use of goind there if you're not gonna earn really much, " she told me. Another friend confided with... (more)

A Power Duet!

ayel — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 06:50:09 PDT

The world waited for it and it proved to be worth the wait. Charice Pempengco and Celine Dion's duet earned positive reviews from critics worldwide. To many of them, it was an excellent performance. In an interview with Oprah, Charice Pempengco shared that Celine Dion is her idol and that she had sung many of the latter's songs in the contests she had participated in before. Charice Pempenco and Celine Dion sang Because You Love Me in Celine Dion's Taking Chances World Tour. Fly high, Charice Pempengco!
