An Interesting thought for Website Owners

Here's a thought that just come into my mind. It's about monetizing web pages with Google Adsense.The more and up-to-date content a website has that adds to user experience, the better the Google bot will like the site and the more frequent will be its visits.If you have a bit of Adsense on a content-rich and up-to-date website, Google might elevate the web pages displaying Google ads. That way Google will make more money, and advertisers will get more response. Advertising is Google's main sou

3 Months with WA

My Progress So FarI’ve set up an affiliate website based on amateur astronomy at space-science.org. As of this writing, there are 24 posts and 6 pages all to do with optical instruments for astronomers and plenty of astronomy content. All telescopes and binoculars have my affiliate links. That’s where I want to see commissions coming in.As the site is pretty young it currently has a website trust value of 20%. As the website matures and comments come in, I expect to see lots of visi

How to Appear to be an Expert in Any Niche

Here's how to appear to be an authority or expert in ANY niche.The first thing we have to do to be seen to be experts is to get an education. No one can become an authority or an expert in a field without knowing the niche subject.If we don't know much about a subject, we have to read lots of books and publications by various experts in our fields. We then study them all and watch as many YouTube videos about our niches as we can, taking loads of notes.Only by learning from 'other' experts can

Google Will Favour Mobile-Focused Web Pages

I've just received an email from the chaps at 'Yoast'. It's about Google switching from a 'desktop-focused' index to a 'mobile-focused' index.Up until now, Google has favoured 'desktop' versions of websites in its ranking algorithm rather than 'mobile' versions. This move puts mobile-friendly web pages up on top.This is not surprising because the number of mobile searches has now overtaken those on clunky desktop computers. I always use my smartphone to search the web these days, and so do a co

Click Theft on the Net Part 4

Email still works! It is more effective than social media. Every honest internet marketer knows that email generates more results than all the social media sites put together..At the end of 2015, Forrester Research wrote that email is up to 40 times more powerful than all the social media combined.By the way, Forrester is a US technology and market research company advising on the impact of technology on clients and the general public.Don't ever build on rented land because then you won't own t

Click Theft on the Net Part 3

Here's the thing, look at the comments underneath popular social media posts. There you'll commonly find a thread of arbitrary comments such as “Great post” or “That’s great?”Well, prepare yourself for a shock. It’s more than likely to bde a hired Asian worker's piece. Look at this screenshot:-These comments are typical. They are abrupt, rapidly churned out, and obviously written by hired workers who don't read the actual social media post.This leads to the s

Click Theft on the Net Part 2

There are stacks of free tools downloadable on the net that can easily assist traffic thieves. These tools have been created by low-life.The ignorant people I mentioned in Part 1 are typically Asian workers. They stand in front of rows of mobile devices using completely fake accounts, clicking, liking and sharing.These paid people briefly comment on posts and write quick one-line reviews, usually in poor English. They are basically 'hired guns' who spend a lot of time replying to and sharing bl

Click Theft on the Net Part 1

I've been doing a bit of digging around lately, looking for the answers to questions I have concerning what I call 'click theft' on the net.My concerns are about fraudulent activities by many online companies and individuals. You see, I believe that genuine, honest, hard working affiliate marketers are being hit by online criminals and gangsters masquerading as something appearing to be 'normal'.By appearing to be normal, gullible search engines and social media networks such as Google and Face

Yoast Plugin and Grammarly

I have been sidetracked lately after signing-up with the Grammarly grammar editor and installing the Yoast SEO plugin on my WA WordPress site. I find that the free Yoast plugin really helps with getting post and page content grammatically correct and for fine-tuning the SEO.After installing the Yoast plugin, I was compelled to edit the three pages and the single post that I had uploaded to space-science.org. That's because Yoast found that my content was simply 'not up to scratch' as far as SEO
