Google’s SEO Report Card

I subscribed to several informative and rich technical content blog such as Daily Blog Tips and read an article titled Google’s SEO Report Card. According to Daniele Scocco, the owner of DailyBlogTips.com, he was browsing through his RSS feeds and I came across an interesting post from the Google Webmaster Blog, titled Google’s SEO Report Card.,

The report, unlike other typical one, was created to help Google’s engineers to optimize their product pages for search engines.The report touches on many on-page and on-site SEO factors, such as title tags, meta tags, heading tags, canonical URLs, image tags and link anchors. They also provide examples to better illustrate what they want to convey.

It’s good that we know and understand the secrets behind the mystery of search engine optimization. So, if you are not an engineer by qualification, maybe you can be an SEO engineer… ;)

Here is the direct download link for the PDF. We are not sure how long this report will be available online, but act fast before it disappears.

Adsense Tip #2

Published by cyza under Blogging ~ Sharring, Make Money

This is the continuation of the adsense tip #1 that I’m sharing with my fellow blog readers. Ok, due to time constraint, I’m going to make just a short, simple but important post. The tips I’m giving now is very important if you don’t have much time available to spend for your online empire.

For a start, create 5 static websites with unique content and super good keywords.

Yes, you heard me right. It’s not necessary to create a blog with certain niche to make money with Adsense. A simple static website with powerful keyword and unique content is going to bring you fortune. Get the keywords from Google keyword tools as I mentioned in the previous post. Buy the domains and use the keyword in the domain. Create 3-5 very good and unique articles and place them in your static website. Position your adsense code for 336 x 280 Large Rectangle between the title and content. You can also place adsense link and other adsense content surrounding the content.

Why I say create 5 websites? This is just for a start. You need to do some tweaking and monitoring as well as some promotion activity. Take note of the date you release and added content in the blog. Then for each website (you have 5, remember), write or manipulate or get somebody to write articles. You need to have at least 1 article per day submitted for 1 of your websites. That means in 5 days you’ll have 5 articles submitted, to 5 different niches. You can do more than this if you have the time. I’m just imagining the worse case scenario, in case you are damn busy. If you have spare times, you can do more. You can use the article making software to help you execute this job. So, after writing those articles, submit them to article directory such as ezinearticles.com. Continuously post your articles there and you’ll see some traffic coming to your website(s), an improvement of ranking to your website(s) and improvement in search engine position to your website(s).

OK, that’s all. Those are very simple tips that is not very difficult to understand. For further tips, please check my coming adsense tip…

Second Adsense Payment Via Western Union Was OK…

Published by zaki under Uncategorized

Basikal tua

I was supposed to withdraw my Google Adsense money end of last month. However, I totally forgot about it!!?%$@#*^ Luckily my other half reminded me about it. I went to RHB bank, Pasir Gudang area last Friday to withdraw the money via Western Union. Despite successfully receiving my first payment, I was quite worried because I’ve read about bloggers experiencing problem withdrawing their Adsense payment and end up did not get paid. Well, I hope, it won’t happen to me. After a short que, I approached the counter and gave the bank officer my Western Union form. She looked at me and said the Western Union services were “off line”. Frustrated and due to limited time during office break, I returned for work.Yesterday, I went to the same bank and the response was still the same – “off line”. I went to CIMB which was just next to it. Wow!!! The bank was flooded with people. The Western Union counter was also crowded with foreign contract workers (Philippines, Nepal, Indonesia and various others that I cannot recognize) who wanted to send money to their love ones at home. I was the only one who wanted to receive money. I waited for 25 agonizing minutes. After that, I decided to make a move because I know I won’t be getting my money soon – the lady bank officer went off for lunch!!! Can you believe that!? Your customers are there waiting and queuing… How can she just leave… OK, maybe somebody covered up for her… But I could not wait. My lunch break was already over… I requested for my IC and form.

Today, my 3rd day attempt, I went to RHB bank, asked the officer whether Western Union is online or not? It’s online… Yes!!! So, I handed in the form and my IC. After waiting for about 15 minutes, I was called to sign the receipt and collected the money. Thank God, syukur, the process was silky smooth. It was not as fast as some people claimed, but at least I’m glad I got the hard cash.

What about you? How was your experience withdrawing Adsense payment via Western Union?

Adsense Payment Via Western Union Is CoOol

Published by zaki under Make Money

I know a lot of people (Malaysian) have received their Adsense payment via Western Union for the first time last month. I received mine last Friday. I was skeptical and wasn’t really looking on it. However, after numerous bloggers shared their experience withdrawing hard cash from the bank counter, I was triggered to try it.

Ten days ago I went to Bumiputra Commerce (BCB), Pasir Gudang to get my money using Western Union. It was my first time, so before coming to the bank, I read few blogs that mentioned about the withdrawal procedure. In the bank, I get myself the form and filled it with the details provided by Google Adsense account (my wife wrote down the particulars in a piece of paper for me). Then, I put the form and my national identity card (IC) on the tray at the counter. The bank officer took it. After few minutes, he called my name and said, you only have 9 numbers for the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN). He added, I need to have 10 numbers for it. I was shocked and surprised. I exited the bank and get back to work. I called my wife and asked her to check the MTCN number. There was 10 numbers all together. She missed out 1 out of 3 zeros in front of the 10 digit numbers.

Last Friday, I get back to the same bank, filled the Western Union form, put them in the tray and queued. But, then I realized, there were dozens of Western Union form in the tray with a lot of people waiting for it. It will cost me a lot of time if I have to wait there. I took my form (+ IC), and move to RHB Bank, which is just next to the BCB bank and has the Western Union facility as well.

I asked for the form from the counter because it was not readily available at the form section. The form was different from the one from BCB. The Western Union RHB form surprisingly do not have the amount of money in foreign/dollar currency for us to fill up (Google Adsense pay us in US dollars). It only have the amount of money we expect to receive in Malaysian Ringgit, and that amount will vary due to the fluctuating current exchange. I did not fill that section. I just leave it as it was, empty. I went to the counter and gave the form and my IC to the bank officer. She asked for a telephone number from the cash sender. I don’t have it. My Google Adsense account information also do not provide that information. Other bloggers never mentioned about having to include the payee telephone number. Luckily, the bank officer was kind enough to check the MTNC and the payment was made to me several minutes after that.

Was it fast?

It was supposed to be fast. However, I can see that the bank officer is a new staff and work slower. I guessed, that’s why I get my money after 15-20 minutes. At least, I have real cash to keep inside my wallet and that made me smile. That was my October Adsense payment and it came faster than my September payment which is still not cashing in my bank because it took longer days to cash a foreign cheque. I’m guessing, the September payment will be deposited this coming week. Yahoo!!!
