BlogRush is Shutting Down

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Have you seen people blog about getting more traffic with BlogRush; how BlogRush helps you in building your blog traffic and etc? I have joined BlogRush last time but after that I have decided to remove the code from my blog because I don’t see any good traffic from BlogRush.

Now, BlogRush is shutting down due to security issue to abusive users trying to ‘game’ the system to much lower click-rates than expected. They also had some problems with trying to fairly control the quality of the network, and in the process made many mistakes in deciding what blogs should stay or go.

For more information, you can visit their index page. Don’t forget to remove your widget code now as they are no longer service you!

Delicious Redesigned

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Delicious is not my favorite social bookmarking site but somehow I will use Delicious to bookmark some posts that I think they are useful for me. Seem like Delicious has redesigned their site, and now it is looking good and nice than ever. (check the screenshoot below). If you have never try to use Delicious before, may be you can give it a try. Hope you will like it!

Good Blog Editor – Windows Live Writer

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Previously, I used Microsoft Word to write my post because MS Word has provide spell check and word count features that I needed, and then I will copy all the content of the posts and paste in the write panel in Wordpress.

It is been a year’s time I have been in blogging, but I just know there is a good blog editor named Windows Live Writer that really impressed me. Now I can quickly write a blog post and publish it, I don’t need login to Wordpress for the blog posting.

Windows Live Writer allows you to insert hyperlinks, pictures, table, tags, videos and etc. You also can add specific features with plugins. For example, Windows Live Writer doesn’t come along with word count feature, then I have installed a plugin for word count.

Windows Live Writer is really nice software, hope you can try it out and share your experience of using Windows Live Writer.

Start Write Paid Reviews

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Although Blogging Secret has average rank of page rank, but I still cannot make money from this blog. My google adsense is disabled, no private advertisement, no offer from text link ads, and etc. Therefore, I have decided to write some paid reviews on Blogging Secret to make some money.

Blogging Secret is not a professional and famous blog like JohnChow, Problogger, and others. This is a blog that I used to share something that I learned since I start blogging since last year.

People say blog with many paid reviews will have problem on traffic because they are not interested in reading a blog with more than 50% post reviews. I don’t care, as long as I can make some money through Blogging Secret, I think I have no problem with that.

Blogging Secret Gained Page Rank 5

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

It is quite long time I didn’t update my blog because I was busy in the past couple of weeks. That day I visited one of my favourite blogs and found a post pertaining to the new update for page rank, and then I quickly go to check my page rank for all of my blog. I’m quite surprised that my blog can get page rank 5, and other blogs remain unchanged for the page rank.
