Mau_uang_dari_internet

Anda sudah punya blog?

Tahu kah anda kapan kita bisa menghasilkan uang dari internet dengan blog anda?

Akan tetapi kita sudah memenuhi acara radio kita yang baru kita bangun ini dengan beberapa iklan komersil yang pastinya dengan penuh harapan bahwa kita akan menghasilkan uang yang banyak dari perusahaan radio yang baru kita bangun ini.

Bisa kita banyangkan apa kata dunia???? :sorry

How to Contact Google Adsense

Affiliate Marketing Tips from Super Affiliate Zac Johnson

contact google adsenseWhile Google Adsense may not be the best way to monetize a web site or blog, it’s still generating millions of dollars in revenue daily for Google and all of it’s publishers. However, with a company the size of Google, you would hope that they had a great support team to manage the massive amount of sites serving their ads.

Should Google ever find a problem with the way you are serving Adsense on your web site, you are sure to get a violation. This email will come directly from the Google Adsense team, and will provide the following: Violation Found, Requested Action, Account Status and the Issue ID#. You will also receive the same email/notice within your Google Adsense account.

If you send a reply back to the email from which you got the violation notice, you will receive the following response back.

Hello,

Thank you for your message. Our policy support team will not be able to assist you through the channel you’ve used to contact us.

To contact us, please visit our Help Center:
https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=113058&stc=aspe-ai4-en.

You can also view information on our program policies:
https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/topic.py?topic=8423&stc=aspe-ai4-en.

Thanks for your understanding.

Sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team

So what’s a Google Adsense publisher to do? Actually, you can still get in touch with Google, but they don’t make it as easy and obvious any more. Imagine having thousands of publishers that continually send in questions that are very simple and already outlined in the Google Adsense Help Center.

Contacting Google Adsense

Here are your options for contacting Google Adsense support and getting a response:

  • contact google adsenseUse the Help Center and Adsense Forum – Not my favorite option, but someone may already have discussed the problem you have at hand. Check out this whole area first. In this area you can talk with both Adsense users, and hopefully someone from the Adsense team.
  • Adsense Policy Issues – The most important issues and reasons to contact Google Adsense are usually related to Violation issues. After going through a massive amount of help pages and links sending you back and forth, you should eventually end up at a page about Adsense being disabled, which then leads to a page that has a contact form for Adsense Policy issues.
  • Report Violations – Google also have an option to contact them regarding any copyright, accidental clicks or non-compliant ad violation issues.

It seems when companies get to a certain size, the customer support never seems to be the same that it once was when they were smaller. Google Adsense used to offer support through email, but you know have to find your way through their Help Center to actually get a real response from someone. Hopefully these links and resources have helped you contact Google Adsense, should you ever need to!

Ten common mistakes made by photographers using WordPress

Graph Paper Press

photographer shoots picture skyward

If you are a photographer or artist who relies on WordPress for your blog or portfolio, chances are you aren’t utilizing all the available tools or adhering to best practices that could help your site stand out.  Below is a list of ten mistakes that photographers (including myself) make when using WordPress.

1. Non-readable image filenames

Image filenames are an important factor in optimizing for search engines. Below are a few examples of non-optimized filenames:

  • DSC000234481.jpg
  • picture1.jpg
  • 20110301-tda-0023.jpg

The filenames above might work well when archiving photos in your image software program, but they are useless on the web.  Including descriptive keywords in filenames on the web will give search engine spiders a clue about the picture.  For example, here are a few optimized image filenames:

  • shark-attacks-california-surfer.jpg
  • libyan-rebels-fight-qaddafi.jpg

Don’t go overboard with keywords or you will dilute the value of each keyword included.  Use - instead of empty spaces, which show up like this in urls: %20.

2. Empty alt and title attributes

Search engines have a difficult time interpreting the content of images.  The more relevant text you include around the image itself, the easier it is for search engine spiders to interpret the content of the image.

The alt attribute provides some alternate text to describe the image if a browser has image loading disabled and is important to the usability of your website in case your visitors have poor eyesight or are using assistive reading technology.  In photography terms, the alt attribute is comparable to the image title metadata.  Google confirmed in 2007 that the alt attribute is their primary point of focus when trying to understand the content of an image.

The title attribute is displayed on tags when hovering your mouse over an image (also known as a “tooltip”).  It should provide advisory information about the image for which it is set.  Below is an image tag with optimized filenames, alt and title attributes:

<img title="Surfer attacked by sharks in California in 2011" src="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/shark-attacks-california-surfer.jpg" alt="Shark attacks California surfer" />

Adding alt and title text to images in WordPress is easy. After uploading an image using WordPress’ Add Media button, click Show and you will see the Title and Alternative Text fields.  Click this screenshot for a larger view.

3. Squished images after changing themes

A common point of confusion is that changing the image sizes on the Media Settings page will resize all existing photos in WordPress.  It doesn’t.  WordPress creates thumbnails when you first upload the photo.  Chances are you set your Media Settings to a size required for your previous theme.  If you change themes, you might need to resize these previously uploaded images.

First, make sure that you have set your Media Settings to the correct size specified by your theme’s instructions. Then, install Viper007Bond’s Regenerate Thumbnails plugin.  It allows you to automagically resize all images that you ever uploaded into WordPress based on your new images sizes on your Media Settings page.  This will save you hours of work.

In some cases, the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin doesn’t work. This is typically due to the fact that you uploaded very large, sometimes even the original, image into WordPress and the plugin simply cannot process all of the large images.  If this is the case, ensure that your thumbnail sizes are set to the correct size according to the theme’s instructions and upload the photo again.

4. Website is not cached

Is a slow loading website hurting your photo business?  It could be.  Photography websites tend to load lots of large images, which translates into slow loading pages.  By creating a “cached” version of your website, you could speed things up to 10X faster.  Thankfully, there’s a plugin for that.

The W3 Total Cache plugin by W3 Edge will decrease the load time of your website, resulting in a faster page loads and happier visitors.  The W3TC plugin improves the user experience of your site by improving your server performance, caching every aspect of your site, reducing the download times and providing transparent content delivery network (CDN) integration.  While there are other caching plugins available, my experience is that the W3 Total Cache plugin provides superior results when configured properly.

5. No CDN

The closer your visitors are to your content, the faster it will load.  A Content Delivery Network is a team of servers located around the world containing copies of your static media content.  When a visitor located in New York loads your website, they will be served content from the closest data center located in, say, New Jersey, instead of loading the data from your web server located in Hong Kong.

The W3 Total Cache plugin contains an option for hosting all static media content at the CDN of your choice.  There are many CDN options available, but the most popular by far is Amazon Web Services’ S3 account.  It is cheap and integrates with the W3TC plugin.

6. Poor lead generation

Make it easy for your site visitors to call or email you.  Put your phone and email (or link to contact page) in the footer or sidebar (or header) of every Post and Page.  Better yet, include a short personal bio, with photo, to make your site a bit more personable.  Use the GPP About You Widget plugin to add a bio box to help generate leads and connect with potential customers.

7. Create an opt-in, opt-out mailing list

One of the best ways to piss off past or potential clients is to send unsolicited email.  Even worse, if your email doesn’t contain an unsubscribe link, amongst other things, your well-intentioned email marketing campaign is technically, well, spam.  The CAN-SPAM Act is a must-read if you market your business to a list of email addresses.  Not surprisingly, there is a plethora of email marketing services available.  Here are a few that integrate well with WordPress so so you can turn site visitors into regular readers and potential customers:

8. Resize images before uploading

If you are uploading your original, high-resolution images in WordPress, you have essentially just given the entire world access to your digital negatives.  Any image that you upload to the internet can be downloaded, period.  Resize your images to the maximum size required by your theme before uploading them into WordPress.

9.  Forgetting to assign Featured Images

WordPress 2.9 introduced the ability to assign “Featured Images” to specific Posts, Pages, and Galleries.  Many themes now use this feature for creating thumbnails on the homepage and archive pages.  If are using a theme and you can’t figure out how to give your posts a thumbnail, chances are you haven’t set a Featured Image.

WordPress 3.1 hides some screen options (including Featured Images) on Posts & Pages edit screens by default.  To show the Featured Image box, click the Screen Options link in the top right corner when editing a Post or Page and check the Featured Image box.  Here is a video tutorial that shows how to use Featured Images in WordPress.

10. Don’t use Flash

Flash is like a black box to search engines.  It looks nice, but isn’t searchable.  If you choose to use Flash content on your website, make sure you have included a description in HTML nearby your Flash content that describes the content contained inside the Flash.

How Your About Page Can Make or Break Your Blog

ProBlogger Blog Tips

This guest post is by Lea Woodward of www.DotNetConnector.com.

Did you know that the second place many new readers go after hitting the home page of your blog is your About page? Go and check your stats and you’ll probably see that if it’s not up there at #2, it’s probably still pretty high up on the list of “most viewed” links. Chris Brogan noticed this, so it must be true!

This isn’t really a surprise—most people are curious to find out more about who writes the blog they’ve just landed on. While they’re looking for this information, they’re probably thinking three things:

  • Who is this guy or girl telling me all about how to make money blogging?
  • Should I stick around and read more?
  • Is it worth me bookmarking or subscribing to this site and coming back again?

If you don’t lose readers at the home page (which you can avoid by compelling headlines and killer content to browse around), the second most common place to lose them is at your About page.

Here’s how to avoid that—and how to ensure your About page makes your blog, rather than breaks it.

Introduce yourself

Tell us what your name is, and include a photo. This sounds simple but I can’t tell you how many About pages I’ve read where the blogger frequently mentions “I” and “me”, or “we” and “us”, where the username is “admin” and there’s no mention of a name (or names) anywhere on the site—not even the About page.

The exception of course is if you’re blogging anonymously, but even so, it’s nice to give yourself (or your alter ego) a pen name. People like names and they like to put a face to a name, even if it’s cartoon one.

Remember the mantra: WIIFM?

Somewhere up near the top of your About page, it’s a good idea to tell readers what’s in it for them if they stick around on your site and even subscribe. They’ll be scanning your page thinking, “What’s in it for me? Should I stick around?” If you can answer that succinctly early on, you’ll save them time and attract the kind of audience you’re actually looking for.

About them

If your blog covers a wide range of topics and it’s not super-targeted, it can be useful to actually state who your blog is for. You can even be as obvious as to include a “Who this blog is for” section listing a few items describing your ideal readers. It’s a fast, simple way to help readers figure out whether they want to stick around or not.

Be personal, but not too personal

It depends upon the topic of your blog, but it’s usually a good idea to share your credentials or expertise in the topic you’re blogging about. If you don’t have any, and you’re writing more of a “share your journey” blog, then say this. It helps people figure out where you are on the path in relation to them, and whether they’ll get something from sticking around.

The depth and level of personal information you share will depend upon the type of blog you’re writing—whether it’s a topic-focused blog or more of a personality-based blog.

Determine the goal of your About page

As you’ve probably gathered by now, your About page isn’t just a place to tell people more about you: it can be so much more. You need to determine the goal(s) of your About page, and then make sure that your page achieves those goals. For example, your About page can:

  • be an ideal place to highlight your best content, allowing you to share links to deeper content within your site
  • encourage people to sign up to your newsletter—which works especially well for “behind the scenes” newsletters and those which are used to share more personal information from the blogger
  • give readers other ways to connect with you, by sharing links to your social media profiles and encouraging readers to connect with you there, too
  • provide readers with social proof and testimonials, helping to establish your credibility and authority from the start.

Always end with a call to action

Your About page is a great place to encourage those who’ve stuck with you until the end of the page, to keep going … but you do need to give them some direction. This goes hand in hand with the point above: once you’ve determined what you’d like your About page to do for your site and your readers, make sure you end strongly by giving readers pointers about the next steps to take, should they be interested.

The above advice can be summarized in the following three points. Your About page should, at the very least, achieve the following:

  • Introduce the person and personality behind the blog.
  • Help new readers easily identify whether your blog is for them.
  • Direct them to do something specific once they’ve read it (whatever it is you’d ideally like them to do next).

Take advantage of this golden opportunity to make another great impression on new readers and create an About page that helps your blog stand out from the others.

What does your About page say about you?

Geohot Call his Fans to Support him to Continue the War Against Sony

Geohot
Geohot is now opening a new blog specially to continue the war against Sony regarding PS3 Jailbreak, Geohot is asking fans to support him via donations.
undefined
tl;dr
Sony is lame, and is suing me for hacking MY OWN PS3. Help me own them in court

Sony are bullies
Sony doesn't care if what you did was legal, if they don't like it, they sue. Sony tried to sue a guy for getting his AIBO to do non Sony approved tricks, making it apparent that they don't really care about piracy, they care about control. In (Sony v Bleem), Bleem was the winner on all counts, but the high cost of a legal defense shut them down. Fortunately, that suit helped set precedent on the legality of emulators. I would hate to lose this case due to resource starvation, and with the support of the masses, I won't. Lets turn the bully back on itself. This case has the ability to set a huge precedent for consoles and all closed systems to come. The other two should be begging Sony to back off.

Sony sued the wrong guy
I am an advocate against mass piracy, do not distribute anyone's copyrighted work but my own, do not take crap lying down, and am even pro DRM in a sense. For example, I believe Apple has every right to lock down their iPhone in the factory as much as they want, but once it's paid for and mine, I have the right to unlock it, smash it, jailbreak it, look at it, and hack on it. Fortunately, the courts agree with me on this point.
My PS3 goal has been to provide users a legitimate path to homebrew, which by the standards of all previous cases (or, in reverse), is 100% legal. Sony does not even try to allege piracy or copyright infringement in this case, they allege I did things like play "super mario world, an unauthorized game" on MY PS3. And access MY PS3 in an unauthorized way. Who are they to authorize what I do with my taxed and paid for property?
fail0verflow's goal was even nobler than mine. They wanted to give you back a feature Sony illegally stole, Linux on your PS3. It's shameful on Sony's part that they are being sued at all. If you have a problem with pirates, sue them, don't sue people who point out your shortcomings.

Why should I care about your personal legal troubles?
You shouldn't. For example, if I was taken to court for sex crimes in Sweden, I would never ask for donations. But this case isn't about me. Clearly I am not being sued because of something I have that Sony wants, I am being sued in order to send a message that Sony is not to be messed with. But if I(and all codefendants likewise) actually win this, we have the power to send a much stronger message back. That consumers have rights, and we aren't afraid to stand up for them.

Why should I trust you? I just saw you trying to rap battle Sony
My attempts at humor aside, I do take this whole matter very seriously. Again, it's not about me, I was on the verge of quitting this stuff last June, and I would hate to be the one who sets a reputation for hackers that all a company has to do is sue us and we back down. In fact, I want the opposite reputation set, that the more a company tries to abuse the legal system, the harder we rally back. I will be the first person in line on the launch date of the Xperia Play, and itching to get my hands on the Next GEOHOT Project.

Why did you wait until now to set this up?
I didn't want to be trigger happy, and thought the suit might go away quickly. Also, I had to consult with my lawyers about how to do this. It's been over a month, and it looks like this is going to be a drawn out case. I am in this for the long haul. I am very serious ethically when I take donations, for all iPhone work I only accepted after the fact, here after the fact is too late. Now I am pot committed so to say.

How much should I donate?
Put it this way, Sony has 5 lawyers, I have 2. I'd like to level the playing field, and really get some hard hitters in there. I have already racked up over 10k in legal bills; donate whatever you feel like. Leftover donations at the end of all this will be donated to the EFF.

What if I want to donate more than I feel comfortable sending through PayPal?
I'm excited! Email me, we'll figure it out.

Why doesn't the EFF fund this?
Ask them. They have offered to provide some legal help though, which is much appreciated.

Donate to help you, you're the reason I can't play Modern Warfare now…
No, I'm not. Kakaroto explains this really well here. I have never played PS3 online ever. Frankly I'm amazed by the apparent ease with which these cheats were created, security 101, why is the security in the client anyway? I had no idea this would happen, and am in full support of the cheaters being permabanned from PSN.

I'm a poor college student, what can I do to help?
I feel you, don't worry. Spread the word. Let people know how you feel about what Sony is doing. Let Sony know how you feel about what Sony is doing.

What if SCEA tries to settle?
Lets just say, I want the settlement terms to include OtherOS on all PS3s and an apology on the PlayStation blog for ever removing it. It'd be good PR for Sony too, lord knows they could use it. I'm also willing to accept a trade, a legit path to homebrew for knowledge of how to stop new firmwares from being decrypted.

Why isn't SCEA trying to settle?
RAGE RAGE RAGE RAGE RAGE...THEY POINTED OUT OUR SECURITY FLAWS...IM SO MADDDDDDDD...WAHHHHHH

How to Write Blog Posts That Go Viral

The Smart Passive Income Blog

Viral Blog PostsThis is a guest post by Onibalusi, a 17 year old (yes, I said 17) blogger who you can find at YoungPrePro.com. What impresses me most about Oni is not his age, but really how smart and hard working this young man is. He’s one of the hardest working bloggers that I know (of all ages) and English isn’t even his primary language.

Enjoy, and be ready for the next session of the Smart Passive Income Podcast coming this Monday. Cheers!

It’s not natural for blog posts to go viral and there are a lot of factors that can determine how successful your blog posts will be. Even though the size of your blog and the type of your audience matter, there are other factors that are even more important that will determine how viral your blog posts will be.

How Do You Know If Your Blog Posts Will Go Viral?

First, I must tell you that there is no guarantee that your posts will go viral, but there are some things that you can do to increase your chances. After analyzing a lot of big blogs I was able to come up with a list of some of the most important factors:

1. Your Headline

Your headline is the number one element that can determine how viral your post will be, so it’s very important to spend more time crafting great headlines. Even though quality content is important, your quality content might not be read if you don’t have a great headline.

“On average, 8 out of 10 people will read headline copy, but only 2 out of 10 will read the rest.” – Brian Clark of Copyblogger.

In other words, spend more time coming up with great headlines, and you’ll increase the chances of people reading your posts.

There are many factors that determine a great headline and lots of tutorials on that subject (Copyblogger’s magnetic headlines) but below are 4 important factors you must consider when writing a headline:

You must make sure your headlines are…

- Useful: Why should a reader read your post in the first place? Always make sure your headline communicates usefulness to your readers, and make sure your headline makes it clear that your post is worth their time.
- Urgent: Online, procrastination is very common. Many people tend to delay things until they forget about it completely. Make sure your headline communicates extreme urgency to get them to read it now.
- Unique: There are a lot of other blogs out there and your readers are subscribed to a number of them, and there’s no point reading the same content over and over again. Your headline should show that your post is different from all of other posts they’ve ever read.
- Ultra-Specific: It’s also important to be very specific when writing your headlines. Don’t confuse your readers and let them know exactly what they’ll get from reading your post.

2. Do Not Under-Deliver

Many viral campaigns fail not because of the headline, but because of the content. Misusing great headlines can bring you more harm than good.

Why?

Because compelling headlines with a low quality post lead to disappointed readers.

Great headlines alone are not responsible for viral posts, but great headlines backed up with solid content are.

Always make sure your posts deliver on the promise of your headline as this will not only bring more people in but it will also encourage them to share your post and create a viral effect.

How to Write Viral Posts

1. List Posts

A list post is a great post to write because they have a higher tendency of going viral. If you take a look at the most popular blogs you’ll notice that most of their popular posts are list posts.

When trying to write a list post it’s very important not to just write a list without any explanation. Back up your points with a detailed explanation.

Here are examples of list posts that went viral on some of the top blogs:

2. How-to Posts

How-to posts also have a higher tendency of going viral compared to other types of posts.

Another great advantage of writing how-to posts is the search engine advantage. Many search engine visitors start their searches with “how to“, which means you’re more likely to get search engine traffic from your post in the long run.

Below is a great example of a how-to post that went viral on a top blog:

3. Case Studies

Another type of post that can easily go viral is the case study post.

Case studies tend to go viral not only because of how informative they are, but because they are very practical. Readers don’t just love to read theories, but they also want to see you in action and they want to see if you’re truly getting results.

Below is a great example of a case study post that went viral on a top blog:

4. Controversial Posts

Controversial posts also tend to go viral, especially if it disagrees with a popular trend.

When trying to write a controversial post, it’s important to make sure you don’t write a post that can bring about negative traffic, but rather use your controversial post to try to get quality traffic.

A great example of a viral controversial post is the example shown below:

5. Top Posts

Writing top posts that rank the influencers in your niche can be a great source of viral traffic. People love to read about top influential people, and you can use this to your advantage to get more traffic to your blog.

Below is a great example of a viral top post:
