I was searching a wordpress theme for my new website. I thought a 3 column wordpress theme with a left sidebar and right sidebar and also widget ready was very appropriate for my site.

Well the site is about classified ads but it is in Indonesian language. Its kind of a new trend in Indonesia where hundreds of blogs about classified ads is flourishing with huge traffic so i decided to have one.

Well in my search I found cool 3 column wordpress themes which is great to apply and good to have adsense on. But if you dont know basic html it is quite hard to personalize the website. But it is great website afterall.

Here are the wordpress themes.

the first wordpress theme is Max Blue wordpress theme. You can get it from here. it is an elegant wordpress theme with a dark layout but you could insert google adsense in very good positions.

the second wordpress theme I recoomend is the 33 module wordpress theme by elegantwpthemes. This is the theme that I’m using now for my site http://iklanbarissuper.com. You can get the wordpress theme from here.

Ok thats it for now, I hope you like the themes!

In Indonesia, Kawasaki is always known for their premium product which in the Kawasaki Ninja. A fast sport motorcycle specifically created for men who loves riding with high speed. Other than that Kawasaki produces a quite genuine product which is the ZX 130. The motorcycle which is a moped type is equipped with the highest engine capacity in its class (in its time) and also unique features like the way to fill up gas from under the front lamp.

After the launching of ZX 130, lots of people began to wonder because it really has been a long waiting time to their next move. Lots of people guessed that their next product would be a scooter type because of the recent trend in Indonesia. We know that Honda has its Vario, Yamaha has its Mio and Suzuki got their Skywaves and lots of people expected Kawasaki should release a scooter too like the ones in Thailand. But, suddenly, Kawasaki officially launched a new series of product none of them was a scooter!

Among the new products, which are the New Ninja, a Trail Bike motorcycle, I fell in love with the looks of Kawasaki Athlete 125!

Well If I’m to judge Kawasaki Athlete 125, I will say the design looks really great! Really different from any knd of motorcycles in Indonesia, so you really get a unique kind of product here.

Now according to the latest data, Kawasaki Athlete 125 use an 124.6cc, 4 stroke, SOHC engine. Compression rationya could reach 9.5:1, and can release 9.9HP at 8000RPM. Clutches are classic, using a classic centrifugal clutch with only 4 speed rotary system but I think its still ok for Indonesian condition which doesn’t need full speed to run motorcycles because of high congestion of traffic in big cities. I think the next coolest feature besides the look is the suspension because it uses a mono-shock with paralel link unitrack suspension. And most of all Kawasaki Athlete in Indonesia is the best of all because it will be released with two disc brakes (front and rear) and you can’t find this in the phillipines version!

Anyway, this bike is really great and I hope to buy one in the future!

Well here is the list!

1. Fatih Syuhud runs a blog with a Google PR 5 and an alexa traffic rank of 310,718. His blogging interest is quite broad but he sometimes focus on political issues. The favourite feature on his blog is the Blogger of the Week, an award for outstanding Indonesian bloggers. Currently you can advertise on his blogs for 8 ec!
2. My friend Kanak runs tecfre.com, a blog about current issues in information technology. His Alexa rank is 139,914 and with a pagerank of 3. But anyways it couldn’t be missed to advertise on because it only cost you 8 ec!

Well the dust has just been stirred as Yamaha would not easily rest to the latest Honda innovation in Indonesia. As you might know Astra Honda Motor (AHM) released BeAT to compete the sales of Yamaha Mio who rampaged and definitely lead the scooter production.

To the latest Honda innovation PT Yamaha Motor Kencana Indonesia as the producer of Mio then released their newest product. The new variant has been sold since 29 of June 2008 at the Jakarta Fair but until now no price tag has been released yet.

Visually the New Yamaha Mio has several changes which are the console box, front light but generally still adopts the architecture of the previous Mio.

Actually there are two Mio products before which are the “Yamaha Mio” and the “Yamaha Mio Soul” but according to sales data the highest sales performance was Yamaha Mio.

So, which scooter are you going to buy!

Buy of of them I guess.

If you recently joined Entrecard then I will tell you the best and effective strategy on using your credits to advertise on blogs.

It is just a simple strategy actually. Well up until now there are a  lot of new users/bloggers signing up with Entrecard and it will be foolish if you don’t practice what I learned about this whole Entrecard system.

When you have enough credits on Entrecard then it is time to campaign your blog. First of all, place in mind that Popular and expensive entrecard blogs doesn’t guarantee the increasing visitors to your site.

Even the cheap blogs can bring you significant traffic! Well what you must do is first understand the importance of Alexa rankings and also the Pagerank of the website. You can install Alexa toolbar and also pagerank toolbar to your browsers.

My strategy is to find cheap blogs with high Alexa rankings. This is a very easy thing to do. What you must do is just visit first the site you want to advertise in and check the Alexa rankings. There plenty of them and I think it is the best thing to do while using Entrecard!

Well happy advertising on Entrecard!

Usually, people with new accounts doesn’t bother to upload any banner at all at their first sign up. The result is that you only get an unattractive banner that would make me (at least) care less about visiting your blog or even advertising on your blog.

Entrecard visitors and advertisers actually rely on visual behavior when they (or even I) see the widget designs. Often I also get fooled because design and blog contents doesn’t even match!

Well readers, it is time that you pimp your entrecard banner. All you need is basic Photoshop skills!

In addition to my article, it seems that the option to upload a new banner is not so easy to find (because not even entrecard is telling you!). Well, to upload a new image you can do it by following these steps:

1. go to your entrecard dashboard
2. click the edit button on the “Your Entrecard” section
3. Click the drop menu on Entrecard Style and pick “Uploaded Image”
4. Upload and there you go!

Around the net there are a bunch of adsense ready themes but somehow to some people including me, these themes doesn’t feel so nice to use. We would really like a personally designed that suits what we want on our monetized blogs.

For people like me with limited basic of html knowledge, sometimes we just take whats out there on the internet. But I really want top improve myself therefore I always want to learn how to modify wordpress themes and actually its quite easy if you know what you are doing. You don’t have to do it the fast way, just learn by doing.

Take a look at one of my blogs at www.idebisnisusaha.com, I created several ads location for the use of PPC scripts (like Google Adsense, but for this blog I use a local PPC program). The theme I modified was the Adpress themes, a beautiful 2 column theme but the ad positions really doesn’t suit me.

Although it took sometime, I know now how to modify it. Really great feeling actually. In the next post I will tell you how to modify the adspress themes.

Ok thats it for now! 

This should be a question I should ask to you!

Do you ever read blogs that you visit via entrecard?

The next thing is I wonder if increasing amount of visitors thorugh entrecard could increase your online earning. In my case, I’m not seeing any significant increase.

I really want to hear what your opinion is about entrecard!

Thanks readers!

Just this afternoon, I tried to login to my entrecard account but I couldn’t. It turns out that they deleted my account because my blog wasn’t in English.

Well, maybe its just my unlucky day, but if they wan’t to be strict then ban all non English blogs from entrecard. Period!

I just applied for Entrecard and a lot of people says that it is a good application for increasing traffic to your website. It could be the right move if you want more visitors to your website.

If you look on the right banner you can see the Entrecard widget and everybody is encouraged to drop credit on bloggers who are also members of entrecard.

Basically it will increase the probability of having more unique visitors to your website.

Ok thats it for now, would you like to discuss entrecard? please fill the comments below.
