Posted by xarenina Labels: Seo, Seo Tip, Submit
Article submission to article directories is and will be the most low cost site promotion technique available on the web. Here are the top 10 reasons why particularly you should submit your article to all article directories out there.
Reason No. 1: It’s Free to submit!
Once you get the account setup and verified, you just need to submit your article via few easy steps and boom your article appears in an article directory.
Reason No. 2: Gives you Expert Status!
Giving your opinion and views, especially when backed up by facts and figures set you up as an expert in your field.
Reason No. 3: Fresh Content for Website!
Each article you write and submit should also be listed on your web site, giving you fresh, quality content.
Reason No. 4 : Free Incoming Links!
You will instantly gain incoming links to your web site from a relevant source. An article on finance with a link to a web site on finance and insurance related website is highly regarded by the search engines
Reason No. 5: Free Website or Product Promotion!
Articles actually allow others to promote you and your website by using your article, including the link to your site, on their web site, blog, e-zine or newsletter. Comments and discussion of your article, ideas and opinions will further your exposure.
Reason No.6: Extra Income!
You might get extra income from people wanting to hire you to write other articles, books, or even ask to speak at seminars. This is a great way to multiply your income. With all the private label article sites springing up daily, there is a lot of content needed to fill the demand, your article writing skills could attract some of these to your door.
Reason No. 7 : No Expiration Date!
Articles submitted to authentic and highly promoted article directory like Articleus usually never expire and be removed under any circumstances except by you. So submitting to the directory will give you long shelf life, drive more traffic even after a year and give you very powerful link back.
Reason No. 8: Broaden your market!

This template is another variation of the original template Basyc. The major change is that the Post column is placed in the middle. Plus, I made some minor code tweaking to make it a little bit different from the original template.
As usual, you need to upload a header image (900 x 200 pixels) and hide the default Blog Title and Blog Description texts. I saw some blogs that use my templates forgot to hide the Blog Title and Description texts; the header would have been much nicer if they hide these texts and made their own Title and Description texts as part of the header image graphic.

This one is pretty neat, I think. Neat and simple. You can put up a large horizontal banner as you can see in the demo page. And like the previous template I've just made, Bannr, there're flexible number of columns - either 3 or 4 columns - and you can customize each one of them easily.
If you want to upload a header image of your own, the size is 860 x 120 pixels.
Overall, i think this one is really one of the nicest one I've made, in terms of its simplicity. If you've used one of my templates before, you'll know how darn easy it is to change the whole thing into how you want it to look like.
Free Methods to Get Traffic for New Blogs
Posted by xarenina Labels: Adsense, Make Money Online, TrafficBlog is the one of the most popular medium that enables publishers to start earning money with Adsense. Content is the very first thing that you need to have. After that, driving traffic to your blog is also a very difficult part. Questions on driving traffic to the blog are always the most popular question to be raised in Adsense Help Discussion Group. Joing PPC advertising program can be one effecive way, but not every blog publisher can affor to pay to join such program. In this post, I am going to discuss three quickest yet free method that drive the first stream of traffic to your blog.
1. Post messages and leave signature on related forums/ groups
Just like what I normally do in Adsense Group. Leaving the URL of your blog as the signature is quite effective in driving traffic to your site. All you have to do is find some forums or groups that are related to your area of interest. Just like my blog, who is talking about making money with Adsense, I choose the Adsense Help Group as my primary forum to leave messages. Of course, if you have time, you can find out more related forums by searching through various Search Engines.
Go to a few that you find informative and read around a bit. Join a couple of the forums, that you find interesting and are of value to you, as a member. However, one thing to remind you is that you should check out two things before joining any forum after doing searching.
- A forum must be indexed by the search engines, particularly by Google. If it's indexed, your posts will appear as backlinks to your site, raising your blog's PR (PageRank) in the search engines. You can gain search engine traffic as a result.
- A forum must also permit the use of a signature file. By creating a signature, that includes your blog URL, you have a link that brings forum members back to your blog.
In your member profile, be sure to use a "signature" that includes a link back to your blog. Make certain the signature appears on all of your postings. Without that link, no new traffic can find you.
2. Tell everyone you know about your blog
This offline networking technique will bring a fresh batch of visitors to your blog. As you become more comfortable with talking to people about your blog, your traffic numbers will take a jump. Many of them will surf to your blog, to read what you have to say.
But remember, only ask your friend or relative to visit your blog, but do not mention or request them to click the ads for you. Encouragement or providing incentives to click your ads is highly prohibited under Google’s TOS. Bear that in mind!
3. Put your links on your e-mails
When you send out any e-mails, either personal or business, be sure to add a link to your blog to each and every one of them.
With a quick and easy to click hot link back to your blog, many of your e-mail recipients will drop by for a look. While not everyone will check out your blogging activities, a few will. Another source of new visitors has been added, with minimum effort.
These three free and quickest methods are, after trial, quite effective to drive traffic to a new blog. You should make a try on them now and start earning big bucks through Adsense!

The new template I started on the other day is called Bill the Lizard, named after a character in Alice in Wonderland. It's currently dressing this blog.It is very similar to Widgetopia, with a slightly different look. The Blog Title and Blog Description are next to each other, the Date and Post Title are also next to each other, and there's a box containing all the widgets (in this color scheme,
It was October 2006 when my current template website went online, so it's already a year old! Time flies.I got a big burst of motivation and recently rewrote the Widgetopia, PhotoBlogger, and Newspaper templates. They all now have more font and color options, more places to put widgets, more pre-made color schemes, and no tables! I was excited to get this done. The templates without tables load
This tutorial explains how you can add a script to allow readers to view your English site in other foreign languages. As you can see on the right of this page, a reader needs only to click the relevant country flag to read this site contents in his preferred language.
English is not the most popular language in the world. In fact, according to many reports, the Chinese language (Mandarin) is certainly the most widely spoken language. In the internet community, the other popular language platforms are arguably Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, Malay, Italian, French, Japanese, and Korean.
Translation from English to other languages
If you have a blog written in English, it therefore makes much sense to be able to reach out to the non-English speaking population as well. There are several online translation tools, the popular free tools being AltaVista's Babel Fish translation and Google's Language Translator. WorldLingo is no longer a recommended tool, as the website translator has a translation limit of 500 words, beyond which you have to pay a monthly fee for their service.
For this site, I have used the Google Language Translator. Google is able to translate English website contents into Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. The JavaScript used here can be applied to most of the blogging sites like Blogspot, Typepad and Wordpress. Copy the following script and paste it at the part of the template where you want your language translator to appear.

Points to note:-
1. For those using Blogspot, once you have logged into your Dashboard, go to Template-> Page Elements. Add a “Page Element” and select “HTML/JavaScript”.
2. Copy the above JavaScript. Under the “value” (in red), you will see the URL of this website. Please change that to the URL of your own website. Save and refresh the page.
3. If you want a slightly bigger flag, you can increase the width of the images, for example, from “30” to “36” and the height from “20” to “24”.
4. Should you come across a translation that doesn't look right, you can always suggest to Google a better translation to help them improve their translation quality.

They ask me like putting the icon of social networks or social bookmarking in each one of ours post, so that yes some of our users uses one of them, has the Link to add it to its favorites of fast form.
There is no necessity to have subscribed blog to no of these services, rather, the connections are indeed so that the user subscribes it and has at the hand your Link yes considers it of utility.
Now we are going to see like putting them:
1.Go to Template -> Edit HTML -> Tick into Expand Widget Templates
2. We looked for the following code:
<p class='post-footer-line
post-footer-line-3'/>
post-footer-line-3'/>
3. That line with the following code replaces:
<p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>
<div class='rsociales'>

(This is a sub-post for Step 5 from Tutorial 11: Starting Your Own Blogger Template)
This is the crucial part of designing - setting how your blog looks like. By this time the widths of all the containers inside the CSS code should have been set. What you need to know about tweaking the CSS code is that it's a recursive process - it's a process of refining that always repeats back and forth until you're 'happy' with the end result.
There are so many things to tweak and so many containers to customize. So how do you do this and where do you start? The easiest approach is to start from the top. Assuming that you're starting from an existing template, at this point you don't have to worry much about customizing the body, outer-wrapper, and content-wrapper, except the width. You can tweak these containers later (or let the existing code as default, unless you want to tweak them later). If you want to use an image as a background image of the whole template, you can also do this later.
Read Tutorial 3: The Structure of CSS Styling Section first if you're not familiar with the basics of the CSS Styling part of the code. Also remember that you should not expect your design to be perfect the first time you do it. It's a process that takes time. To know the basics of tweaking the CSS code, read Tutorial 4: Setting the Properties of a Container. And, if you don't know what containers to customize, read Tutorial 5: Common Containers and Elements in a Blogger Template.
Header:
I'd suggest you start with the Header section. What you commonly need to do here is to set the background color, set how the Blog Title and Blog Description looks like - the font, colors, font-size, etc. If you want to set a large background image as the header image, set it using the Edit Header button in the Page Elements page. The list below is from Tutorial 5.
- #header-wrapper - the container that wraps your Blog Title and Blog Description.
- #header - the container just inside the header-wrapper.
- #header h1 - the command inside this containers controls the appearance and layout of your Blog Title.
- #header h1 a - controls the properties of the Blog Title as a link text.
- #header .description - the properties of your Blog Description.
- #header a img - controls the properties of an image inside your header container.
Main and Post:
The next container to tweak is the Main and Post containers (including the Post-Footer). This one will take most of your time because there's a lot of subcontainers inside it. Infact, Post is a subcontainer of Main. It's usually easiest if you tweak the subcontainers following a certain order. My suggestion is to follow the order below. The list below is from Tutorial 5.
Main:
- #main-wrapper - the container that wraps your Date Header, Blog Posts, Comments, Feed Link, and any widgets that you drag above or below the Blog Posts.
- #main - the container just inside the main-wrapper.
- #main .widget - controls the properties of all widgets inside the main container.
- h2.date-header - sets the properties of your Date Header (just above your Post Title).
- .post - sets the properties of your Blog Posts container.
- .post h3 - sets the properties of your Post Title.
- .post-body p - sets the properties of the body or content of your post.
- .post ul - sets the properties of an unordered list (a list that is not numbered).
- .post ol - controls the properties of an ordered list (a numbered list).
- .post li - controls the properties of the individual list inside an unordered list or an ordered list.
- a img - controls the general properties of an image (the a refers to a link; and an image is by itself a link).
- blockquote - sets the quoted text in your posts.
- code - sets the text contained within the code tags in your posts.
- .post-footer - sets the overall properties of the post-footer container.
- .post-footer-line - sets the properties for each new lines in the post-footer.
- .post-footer a - sets the link text properties inside the post-footer.
- .post-footer .post-comment-link a - sets the "comment" link inside the post-footer.
- #blog-pager - controls the properties of the "newer posts", "home", and "older posts" links.
- #blog-pager-newer-link - controls the properties of the "newer posts" link.
- #blog-pager-older-link - controls the properties of the "older posts" link.
- .feed-links - controls the "Subscribe to: Posts (Atom)" link.
Sidebars:
Once you're done with the above, customize the sidebar. If you have more than 1 sidebar, you may want to customize each sidebar differently. You'll also need to customize the Profile container and the Blog Archive if you want them to be different from other sidebar widgets. The list of container elements from Tutorial 5 are:
- .sidebar-wrapper - the container that wraps all elements and contents in a sidebar.
- .sidebar - the container just inside the sidebar-wrapper.
- #sidebar1 - sets the properties inside sidebar1.
- #sidebar2 - sets the properties inside sidebar2. If you want the properties inside sidebar1 and sidebar2 to be the same, than you can just the properties inside .sidebar and don't have to even write down the #sidebar1 and #sidebar2 in your CSS code.
- .sidebar .widget - controls the properties of all the widgets (the Added Page Element) in your sidebar.
- #sidebar1 .widget - only sets the widgets in sidebar1.
- .sidebar .BlogArchive - sets the Blog Archive properties. Technically, this is a sidebar widget too, but I'm not sure why setting the properties for sidebar widgets doesn't change any properties for the Blog Archive. That's why I have to write down the .BlogArchive command to set its properties.
- .sidebar h2 - sets the title/header properties of a sidebar widget.
- .sidebar #BlogArchive1 h2 -sets the properties of the Blog Archive's title.
- #Profile1 - sets the properties for the About Me block.
- #Profile1 h2 - sets the title/header for the About Me block.
- .profile-img a img - sets the image in the About Me block.
- .profile-textblock - sets the author description About Me block.
- .profile-data - sets the author's data in the About Me block.
- .profile-datablock - sets the overall blocks of data in the About Me block.
Comments:
After the sidebars are done, customize the Comments container next. Post a few test comments to see how they will appear after tweaking. The list of container elements from Tutorial 5 are:
- #comments - sets the overall comment container's properties.
- #comments a - sets the link text properties inside a comment container.
- #comments h4 - sets the header of the comment container.
- .deleted-comment - sets the properties of the deleted comment.
- .comment-author - sets the properties of the comment author.
- .comment-body p - sets the comment body properties.
- #comments ul - controls the unordered list inside a comment container.
- #comments li - controls the individual list inside a comment container.
Footer:
The last container to be customized is the Footer. The list of container elements from Tutorial 5 are:
- #footer-wrapper - the container that wraps all elements and contents inside a footer section.
- #footer - the container just inside the footer-wrapper.
- #footer h2 - sets the properties of the footer title/header.
- #footer .widget - controls the footer widget properties.
- .footer a - controls any footer link texts.
Refining Touch:
Now that you're done customizing all the containers, what you need to do is go back and take a look at your blog as a whole and do some minor tweakings. What I suggest here is you might want to change some font or background colors, font size, margins and paddings, adding borders or changing the borders colors, and so on. But when adding borders, be careful that it might change the width of the container that you're adding the borders on. If there are problems (say that the Sidebar is pushed below the Blog Post), you'll need to increase the width of the parent container that it's in.
The best way to change background and font colors is to have them as variables so that you can use the Fonts and Colors tab in the Layout page. If you're not sure how to do this, just use my Generic Blogger Template as you're starting template. It has plenty of color and font variables to start with.

The cop wants the man, who the cop believes is truly a killer, to murder him so his family will collect money from his death--solving all his problems. The film starts with considerable energy and verve, but stalls about midway through and later seems sorely in need of extensive editing. The film is too long, with the camera lingering too much on our hapless duo, who are dodging both the mob and other cops as they try to sort out their respective difficulties. Also, one wonders why the film's "English" title is actually French.

Park Yi (Jung Woo-sung) is a hit-man who found a soft spot for painter Hye-young (played by the pretty Jeon Ji-hyun). It’s love at first sight in the meadows of daisies, where her clumsiness caught his attention. However, being shy and ever mindful of the dangers of his professional career, he can only admire her from afar, do little (or perhaps big) things for her in an anonymous fashion, but the one that takes the cake is sending her potted daisies everyday without fail at 4:15pm. He becomes her guardian angel from afar, shielding her and keeping her safe from harm.
Hye-young is in love with this mysterious stranger. She is constantly waiting for him to appear, but I really wonder how difficult could that be given the almost punctual daisy delivery. Nonetheless, she’s terribly moved, and touched by this sole act. However, as the stars would have it, interpol detective Jeong Woo (Lee Sung-jae) chances upon Hye-young at a town square during one of his undercover missions, and he too is captivated by her. In a similar fashion, because of his profession, he is doubtful if he should make the first move.
