This was the latest news I got from CNN few seconds ago and am currently watching John McCain acknowledging the defeat and giving congratulations to Obama.

Obama was said to address from a rally in Chicago, Illinois, later tonight.

Obama is now the first African-American to win the presidency.

Let’s watch out for the change he is saying for America.

There are millions of people using internet everyday that provides a great opportunity for merchants to sell their products. On the other hand, affiliate marketing has also been one of the best way for other to earn money by selling or promoting a merchants product - the home based money makers.

To make it short, there are two parties benefiting thru this, the merchant that owns the item, and the marketer that earns commission from each item sold by him/her.

If you are interested to make money thru this, you need to join an affiliate program, amongst the most popular is LinkShare.com. Joining linkshare can improve your online marketing business as they have a wide variety of merchantg products to choose from and a huge number of publishers that market products.

An affiliate program like linkshare is beneficial for an affiliate choosing a partner as he will surely have lots of options. The publisher interface is easy to understand, wherein it is easy to compare products via commission rates. Tracking informations such as click throughs are honestly presented as well as sales transactions. The only disadvantage I can see here is that merchant offers lower commissions, not only in linkshare but in most affiliate sites, because they have to pay for the use of service provided by Linkshare.

Here’s a couple that I tried:

Search Engine Optimization has only 108,000 results in 2001 compared to 30 million as of today. Seems like every nation’s law should support birth control now.

No online money maker stays long at the top from 2001 up to 2008 for the keyword make money online. Therefore, I should change my make money online tag to the poorest guy in the web, that might make some history…lol

Oh btw, because of this archiving thing released by Google, I thought of checking two of the most visited sites in the Philippines, friendster and youtube in the web archive.

Do you know that Youtube seems to be a dating site rather than a video sharing site?

And friendster isn’t as friendly as we thought coz you have to get an invitation code to get inside? Weird but true during their beta days…

Anyway, those were the good old days. Internet is now part of our daily lives and I’m very thankful that it’s getting better leaving us with fruitful contents as days pass by.

It is my little kid who’s the number one fan of Pokemon at the moment, and it’s the two of us having battles about it. Since my 4-year old kid Nico started his addiction with this (what do you call this type of creatures?) pokemon thing, I wasn’t able to watch news in tv, play NBA 2K9 in playstation, watch dvd’s, I can’t even go near the toy section in any mall with my kid coz he’ll surely ask me to buy any new pokemon figures in there.

And as I am the father, I couldn’t win the battle. It is always my little kid who can watch pokemon even if there’s news, will grab the playstation and play pokemon when I’m about to play NBA 2K9, and he gets my dvd player stucked up inside with a pokemon dvd all the time.

Our house is now getting filled with pokemon items, and I don’t even know their names except for Pikachu as that yellow little creature is Nico’s favorite. From Pokemon shirts, pokemon cards, pokemon miniatures, etc., my kid wants to buy them all and it’s hurting my pocket. Some of the pokemon collectibles are expensive and I’m not really fond of collecting something that is of no need, but can’t I reconsider it for him?

I really want to kill pokemon creator Satoshi Tajiri.

Btw, do you know that based on my research few minutes before this post, there’s nearly 14k people searching for the word pokemon everyday and 13k for pokemon games to play? Hmnnnn…now it looks interesting and smells like money.

NoFollow Free - This will strip the “no follow” attribute in the authors link within the comments in this blog, but it will only happen when the comment author reaches a minimum of 2 comments.

KeywordLuv - The best thing for a do follow author link will be an anchor text for the keyword he wants to dominate so with this keyword, you can use your keywords in your author name without being flagged as a spammer. You just have to type YourName@YourKeywords in the comment name field to use it.

Hopefully, I can help comment authors of this blog gain links and better rankings if they do have a blog or a website.

For those who don’t have credit cards, it is really hard, you have to get a debit card first or a virtual credit card, which is hard to find nowadays. In the Philippines, the UnionBank EON visa card was the primary card used before for verifying paypal, but later, they have closed its online registration of eon accounts.

Few weeks back, I tried creating a new paypal account. Though I already have a premier paypal account, I decided to create a personal account, for lesser fees. It’s not illegal, every paypal user is entitled to create 2 accounts, but required to submit different financial information for each.

I had problems verifying that paypal account, as it was really hard for someone in the Philippines to find a debit card with a visa or mastercard logo in it. So to fix things, I changed my payment option in Text Link Ads from my premier paypal account to Payoneer. I signed up for a new card, and waited 25 days.

Earlier this day, my payoneer card came. I activated it, entered a 4-digit pin. Then I tried using it to pay for a domain just to test if it’s working. Then here’s the steps I took to get my paypal verified thru my payoneer debit card:

  1. Login to paypal
  2. Click Unverified link beside Status.
  3. Enter card number. 3-digit card code. Billing address.
  4. Confirm.

Tip: Make sure that your payoneer card has funds in it as paypal will deduct a certain amount for verification which will reflect to your paypal account later.

After entering card details, login to your payoneer account. Go to transaction history and look for the paypal transaction that contains the EXPUSE (expanded use) number that paypal sent.

paypal to payoneer expuse

paypal to payoneer expuse

Enter that 4-digit paypal expuse code to your paypal account. Then you’re done. Paypal is now verified thru payoneer card.

What is Payoneer? Payoneer allows organizations to pay large numbers of people around the world, efficiently and securely directly to their Prepaid MasterCard® cards, avoiding the delays and heavy surcharges of more traditional methods such as bank transfers and international checks. Payoneer is a privately-held company and a registered MSP with MasterCard.

How to get a payoneer card? If you’re an affiliate of Text Link Ads, ReviewMe, GetAfreeLancer, Elance, iStockPhoto, Metacafe, and more..they offer payoneer as payment option. Check out their site for a more complete list or ask your affiliate manager if they offer payoneer as an alternative payment solution.

I came early, around 7am at the agreed meeting place of the seophilippine members - McDonalds beside La Salle University. Kiddie30 the first one to arrive, then Mito, kapengbarako, spyrochan, and Ghostnote. After taking breakfast, we proceed to the venue. Security was great, we have to log our laptops in and out.

The event started around 9am at the Hall wherein I saw an old friend Ricky Refuerzo. Me and the guys picked the following topics to attend and saw jayl (another seoph member) as we go to the room:

After the classroom sessions, lunch time with a good food courtesy of Chowking. That’s when I met other seoph members like ericm, dudley and Andrew Wong. After eating, we went back to the Hall to listen to:

  • The Future of Wordpress by Matt Mullenweg (will vote for Obama)
  • Demistifying Google Analytics by Aileen Apolo (as beautiful as she is)
  • Wordpress & Web Standards by Regnard Raquedan (thanks for the shirt man)
  • Making Money With Performancing Ads by J.Angelo Racoma (haven’t received my affiliate earnings yet)

The coolest part for me was the time I got some prizes..

  • a .ph domain of my choice courtesy of dotph
  • 2 premiere night tickets for Righteous Kill
  • an adobe shirt from Regnard

The question and answer with Matt rocked the house as well as the photo session.

After the event, we didn’t go to the wordcamp party, the seoph boys went to Pier One and Hooters in San Miguel by the Bay, SM Mall of Asia. See pics below:

Kudos to the mindanao bloggers for organizing such an event.

If you haven’t been into, then you should start your addiction in it particularly if you’re into online marketing. Why? Okay, let me tell you a short info about facebook and how you can gain from it as an online marketer.

If you’ll check the facebook statistics, you will see that it has more than 100 million active users, which makes them the most-trafficked social media site in the web and the 5th most trafficked website (Alexa). Can you imagine how much traffic you can get for your website thru it? I’ll share you what I’ve been doing earlier with my facebook account.

First of all, I went to my privacy settings. In here, you can control how you will display details about you, either to your friends alone or to the entire world. I have exposed most of my infos to my whole network, except my phone number, IM info and email address as I still want to leave some privacy in my life.

Then, I started making connections. I searched for persons I know personally then added them as my friend, search their friends, then added them too and so on and so fort. I searched for groups where my interest belongs then joined them. I preferred joining groups with more number of members.

Facebook applications are cool so I went on adding them to my account. Here’s a list of what I suggest:

  • Twitter App - it will auto-syndicate any post you make on twitter to your facebook profile page.
  • Simply RSS App - provides an easy way to add feeds to your profile so you can easily share your blog or favorite feeds to your friends.
  • Stumbleupon App - this will show sites you have marked as favorites in your stumbleupon profile, which will also be visible in your profile page.
  • Friendfeed App - this will connect all your activity from facebook, twitter, flickr, linkedin and more.

If you’ll notice, all the applications I have installed is a great way to automatically syndicate all my activity from various social media sites that will help me reach more people for my site or products.

Oh, I’ve also added some just for fun apps, it’s a good way to interact with your friends. Sending them something like a poke or a hug lets them feel that you’re there to socialize and not just to syndicate your things into facebook!

We’re sorry….
…but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can’t process your request right now.

This is just a portion of the text I am getting everytime I go to google.com earlier. At first it shows a captcha then after I enter the captcha, the same page shows, this time without the captcha. I thought something is wrong in my computer, so I checked for viruses, spywares, or any other malicious wares with several security softwares but got nothing.

Then I thought that it might be due to some of the keyword rank checking softwares and tools I have installed so I immediately removed them all from my system then went to web search help center to send google additional information and get it fixed. After around 2-3 hours, my access to google.com was restored. Not really sure what really caused it as I haven’t got any other details coming from google. Anyway, here are some of the ranking tools I have before:

Aaron Wall’s Rank Checker - a free and fast Firefox extension which you can use to track your rankings over time

Agent Web Ranking - I have the free trial installed for a week, pro version goes around $800 for 1 year but it’s a cool tool so worth the price

I am now thinking of going back to the good old days, using web based rank checking tools like google rankings or the digitalpoint keyword ranking tool. Good thing I still have the old Google API key with me.
