How Not To Do SEO For 2009
Web start-ups face a daunting task of getting known. As of last count, over a billion pages literally litter the web. That’s a billion competing pieces of informtion swamping yours. Compound that with the short attention span of the average surfer. And the problem of ever shifting viewer loyalties. No wonder many netrepreneurs surrender and [...]
New Theme – Best Ever!
I’ve been through many WordPress themes over the last 4 years, but the one I added last night is definitely the best ever! It’s very clean and simple to use, and more importantly, very, very fast even with all my many plugins and tweaks running.
The feature I love the most is the featured posts carousel, [...]

I’ve been using the theme on this site for over a year now, so I’ve decided it’s time for a change as I need something new to fiddle with! There are so many good wordpress themes out there so to speed up finding a newA theme I thought I’d enlist the help of my readers.

Launching Otaku Gadgets
After taking a minor break from blogging in 2008, I’ve been working even harder than ever in 2009. What has really spurred me on has been the success of Windows 7 News, that I run jointly with Martin from gHacks. Having an official blogging business partner is great as two brains are better than one, [...]
Migrated To New Server Over The Weekend
I’ve had to move servers again and the migration was completed over the weekend. I’d like to thank my new hosts WiredTree for a very professional move, which had no major hiccups. Already users should see major speed improvements on the site, which will increase over the coming weeks as we tweak the server.
I decided [...]
When Should You Remove Ads From Your Site?
I’ve read many blog posts advising as to when aspiring bloggers should add banners to their sites. In my opinion the advice given in most posts that you should only add adverts once you’ve got an established readership is wrong. A good blog should always be attracting new readers, so why should new readers be [...]
How To Make Quick And Safe Bucks Online With Forex
95% of new investors fail the forex game. That’s a fact. The average bloke jumps into the market with a $10,000 investment hoping to hit a goldmine. He purchases scores of forex indicators off ebay to get an edge. Then he tries autotrading robots amounting to a thousand dollars. Then reality sets in. Losses accumulate [...]

AntiVirus And AntiSpamBee Plugins For WordPress
Last week my server was attacked by a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack for about 5 days, which took my sites down for about 4 hours. My host liquidweb responded brilliantly and although they couldn’t stop the attack, they tweaked my server so that it could handle excess load from the attack.
The incident made [...]
Using Multiple Ad Networks To Increase Blog Earnings
It’s been a long time since I’ve produced a post about making money with blogs. I used to share my tips regularly in my MyBlogEarnings posts, but I stopped sharing my earnings and tips, because I didn’t want people to think that I was boasting, and also because some of my colleagues found out and [...]
Analyse Website Color Contrast with Checkmycolours
When it comes to building up a new website ask any web designer what is one of the most time consuming tasks and you might get a surprising answer!
Its not coding the site, its not checking the database connectivity, heck even security isn’t that frustrating – its the colors! That’s right, many hours of the [...]
The Perfect OS
I’ve written several articles where I bash a particular operating system or heap praises on another. I’ve held a fascination with operating systems, and with graphical user interfaces, since around 1995, when I was introduced first to Digital Unix, and then BSD and linux shortly thereafter. In 1996 I began my love affair with all [...]

Phenomenal – that’s the word that comes to mind when trying to describe the amount of data being transferred over the internet, with the average user storing hundreds of gigabytes alone its not surprise that Hardisk manufacturers are running amuck to increase the size of their drives by the second!
However with this increase in [...]
My Eyes Have Been Opened To The Power Of Twitter
I have to confess that until last month I tried to ignore twitter because I thought it was a waste of time. I was convinced that there was no real value in twitter and that it was another distraction like facebook that I didn’t need. However, just as facebook turned out to be a very [...]

Got Trash? Don’t Fret -You Got Cash!
Earlier, I mentioned how easily you can make $200 a day with $5 cost. But did you know you can actually make $900 a day at almost no capital expenditure?
I discovered the method years ago when a relative gifted me a pair of shoes. Not just any kind, mind you. These were Louis Vuittons. $400 [...]

Did you know you can make megabucks with a $4 item?
A few days ago, a local call center requested for a motivational speech, particularly one that empowered their agents to ooze charisma over the phone. It was an easy job. I simply gave the basics of tonality, pacing and leading as well as emotional [...]
