Blog about Debt?

I told hubby that I have intention of getting new domains, if the niche works for me. One of the niches I can think about is how to reduce credit card debts since the keyword is higher popular in search engines. But I don’t have a lot of knowledge in this as I settle my [...]

Google Analytic and Sitemeter

Since I have to build up my new blogs and work on rescuing the existing ones, I am making an effort in checking my stats at Google Analytic and Sitemeter everyday if possible. My blogs are not being directed with organic SERP, so it’s about time I look at the problem and see what are [...]

What I Learned From The Recent Page Rank Update

I was hit pretty badly at the recent page rank updates as my blogs dropped at least 2 notches each. But I learned something from this as I have had enough moaning, it’s time to get up from the fall and look forward. So, now I know that: Don’t take your page rank for granted. [...]

Page Rank Reconsideration

I think everyone knows that you can actually ask Google to reconsider your blog if you think it is poorly ranked. Frankly, I’m not going to do so as that would mean that you can’t monetize your blog further besides Adsense and some other CPC programs. Even if I won’t be able to write much [...]

Everything Is Getting Expensive

I was a bit shocked when I paid for my coffee this afternoon. Huh? The price has increased to RM1.80? And it’s just a coffee shop? Not only that, maybe we will have to pay more for the electricity, flour, petrol and etc. Who knows what else will be expensive? Thus, if you are planning [...]
