Long ago, i heard all my classmates talking all the time about this online game Texas Hold'em Poker. I wanted to know what it was all about and started getting into the game. Though we were not playing with money, it was just with virtual money, i still remember how interesting the game could go on and on. There were days i won 10K tournaments by using my silly strategies which worked out for me. River's, Flush and Royal Flush were happening to me when i play with such strategies. You of course need some luck to be always on the smiling side.

Soon poker became popular and they started playing for real money through online casino's. If you are one such soul who loves poker then here are some great offers for you.

Ugly Side of Web 2.0

bloggerboy86@gmail.com (Hari) — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:31:00 +0000

Well the WWW is getting inclined to the web 2.0 style. Even the blogs, websites and business portals are trying to change their website to look and follow the web 2.0 standards were the design and content of the websites are two major things which get altered all together. Though this kind of a sudden change in the web style has caused a lot of significant changes that are good, there are some negative issues as well. Recently, the TechCrunch blog came out with some comments on the last.fm website which is a famous online music portal, saying that they had given some of their user information to Recording Industry Association of America. Though, the co-founder of last.fm had come out with statements saying that this was totally unacceptatble and the website had never done something like this, this is all due to the negative aspects of this standard. So this kind of a rumour spreading among the blogs has been going on for a while and it surely needs to be corrected. You may also want to read Rumor Mongering, The Mob and Web 2.0’s Ugly Side to know more about how tihs is exactly happening and how it can be prevented. If this is not ended, it might spoil the blogosphere pretty soon.

Slicethepie pay out rates !

bloggerboy86@gmail.com (Hari) — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 16:43:00 +0000

Slicethepie has reduced their pay out rates per song on account of flowing traffic and new sign ups during the previous month. They made their announcement in the forum thread saying that the song reviews are going to see a big change in terms of money per review. Everyone was expecting that the prices would just be reduced by 0.01 P across all the star levels ( 1-5). Next day, they came up with a total turn over and a big slash across the pay out rates. Now a 3 star scout ( most of us are here ) gets around 0.05 per song which was 0.08 before. A 5 star gets 0.10 now where as earlier it was 0.12 per song.

They have also changed their rating algorithm which makes it tough to rate the songs and increase the star level. I guess the basic idea was to minimize the site's spending on scout payments which could bring down their running cost in this current economic situation.

How To Promote Through E-zine Articles

bloggerboy86@gmail.com (Hari) — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 16:26:00 +0000

Also known as the “name squeeze page” or “lead capture page”, you can build your mailing list by funneling all of your would-be subscribers through the creation of a landing page. Not only do you do the work just once, your traffic driving efforts can be focused onto just one effective method.

The following are tips in creating a successful landing page that converts visitors into subscribers on a very huge percentage.

Success Tip 1: Offer a freebie in exchange for your visitor’s email address. I very much endorse this method of building your mailing list. You can offer a special report or a sample of your paid product to your visitor in exchange for their details such as name and email address.

Success Tip 2: The landing page must be written professionally. When writing your page, treat it as if you are writing a sales letter. While you are not necessarily making a hard sale or try to get someone to buy your product upfront, being able to entice your visitors to give their details to you is just as important as selling.

Success Tip 3: Other than your opt-in form and perhaps important disclaimers and terms, there shouldn’t be any other links on your landing page.

Success Tip 4: Rub in the benefits of the freebie you are offering more than a mere subscription to your newsletter. You should focus most of the attention of the letter on encouraging your prospective visitor to download your free offer. Later, you gently remind your prospect that he or she has nothing to pay but just merely subscribe to your newsletter in exchange for the freebie.

As a final reminder and conclusion, in order to build trust, you can include your hand-written signature or a photo of yourself explaining where you are coming from and how you can help your visitor through your free report on offer.

Reviews of Best Web Hosts

bloggerboy86@gmail.com (Hari) — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 17:25:00 +0000

If you have been following my blog for a while, you would have noticed that i have been talking a lot about choosing the right web hosting company. This is a really important step in setting up your business as the website needs to have a good back end support and server side facilities.

How to use Entrecard effectively?

bloggerboy86@gmail.com (Hari) — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 16:29:00 +0000

Entrecard has brought a lot of traffic to my blog recently. I have not been regular there for a while but i'm sure it was contributing around 20 - 30 UV's per day. Now after setting up my new website (refer previous posts), i just wanted to make it a bit popular by showing it to the internet world. I did not have any better option other than using Entrecard. However i have no regrets for choosing this way as it brings around 120 UV to my site just by spending 30 minutes on Entrecard. It is true that you need to build a reputation and network before you get a lot of UV's to your blog or website. I am thankful to entrecard for starting such a nice website.
