A terrible and horrible experience with Grammenphone Internet

Unfortunately, on the 6th September thief broke the door of my rented flat and took away my laptop, money, modem and gold ornaments. As a result I bought new Grameenphone modem, Grameenphone Internet SIM from Uttoron Computer, Shailakupa, Jhenidah on 8th September. After I bought the postpaid Internet SIM they informed me that within 72 hours my SIM will be activated. In the meantime they also told me they will send my information tomorrow morning and so I expect my SIM activated by tomorrow. Well, tomorrow arrived and it was afternoon. I keep trying to connect to Internet but SIM registration failed. I thought they said 72 hours, so let me see after 72 hours. After 72 hours I again tried to connect to Internet, still SIM registration failed. Then I contacted them through mobile phone. They said it should not be. They told me to go to their center with modem and SIM. I went to them and saw their center is closed.

After it is 6 days passed and EID is finished I again contacted them through mobile phone. This time to the owner of the shop. He feels hesitate and ringed to the customer manager indicating that the paper of badly filled and my SIM will not be activated. He felt sorry to me and told me to wait till tomorrow. In the meantime, I have to come back in Dhaka but still did not see any good response. I contacted to grammeenphone online help through calling 121 but they informed me the SIM is not registered yet and until it is registered they have nothing to do. Rather the customer manager told me to contact the shop from where I bought the SIM. Anyhow, this time I contacted to my agent and they told me by tomorrow my SIM will be registered. Hopefully the next day at night I am succeed to connect to Internet. So it took my 9 took to activate my SIM package!

Well, I have recharged 1000 taka and activated P2 unlimited package from Grameenphone. Note that, I always read that package P2 is unlimited that means you can download and upload as much as you can. Though Grameenphone Internet speed is not good but still they have introduced fair usage policy which is funny really. Anyway according to P2 unlimited package fair usage policy any subscriber whose monthly usage is over 5G they will be implied to fair usage policy. BOGUS AND BULLSHIT GRAMEENPHONE. But there is more pathetic news coming.

According to them,
Grameenphone's Unlimited Plans are designed for subscribers who do not want to receive a bill beyond a certain amount and for those who wish to enjoy unlimited access to their internet. However, in the event that usage exceeds the regular acceptable levels in accordance with the Fair Usage Policy, subscribers shall not be charged for their excess usage. Instead, a restriction shall be placed on their data transfer rates beyond their regular usage in order to ensure the quality of service for all regular customers.

Unlimited Plan subscribers who regularly exceed the accepted level of usage will be affected by this Fair Usage Policy. Under the terms of GP's unlimited internet plan, no charge will be applied for excess usage, however upon exceeding the stipulated volume limit, the subscriber’s speed shall be restricted for the remaining period within their current bill cycle or validity period or that particular day depending on the package they are using. Normal service speed shall be restored from the first day of the next bill cycle or subscription renewal.

Now I have activated P2 package at 17th September. As I bought a new laptop so for it I downloaded different software like xampp, filezilla, antivirus and tried to download windows operating system. But in the middle I see everything stuck. It was happened at 3rd October. After I have connecting to GP internet, I see I am not able to connect any chat system like yahoo messenger, gtalk or skype. Even I can't browse any website. After 10 hours of trying at last I have logged in to online GP customer care and no one of them able to give me right answer. Well, the pathetic scenario is after I connect to Internet, GP automatically disconnects me after 1/2/3 minutes. It sounds in a hour I get disconnect 30 times. IMAGINE!! Once again I call them to 121 and at last I have heard their ridiculous fair usage policy. According to them after you exceed 5G limit your Internet connection will be limited to 3KBS and hardly I get around 1KBPS after connecting to their system, though my connection spans at best 3 minutes.

Ok, I agree to them that I have exceed 5G limit and hence I have imposed a limit, but whenever I ask them why I am getting frequent disconnection they did not able to tell me any good answer. As GP charges daily basis on P2 package so I decided to cancel the P2 package and wish to activate P5 package. They told me to type "cancel" and send it to 5000. So I did it but I did not get any confirmation of cancellation. So I again asked them and they told me, to activate P5 package you need to recharge 450 taka more. As I have already around 400 taka in my account, so recharge 450 more and it will be 850 taka and P5 package including vat is 805 taka. As I know I am postpaid user and I have 50 taka credit limit but still I recharged said amount.

Ok, after I recharged said amount Saikat (who is one of the grameenphone online customer helper) informed me that my account has been credited and he has activated my P5 package. So now I will be able to use my Internet without any problem. After I came back from my shop whenever I try to connect to my Internet, after it connects GP automatically disconnects my connection. Now more problem comes, even I could not connect to Internet. After so much trying I saw connection exists only for few seconds. So, I contacted them and they told me as I explicitly typed "cancel" so my P2 package status becomes pending. Now they will not be able to do anything. I need to wait till 12 am in order to reset P2 and activate P5.

Well, I waited till 12 am and whenever I tried to connect the same news. It automatically disconnects. At morning I explicitly sent message to 5000 for P5 package and it said to me my P5 package has been successfully activated. Now I tried to connect but still I get horrible speed and my connection spans for 2 minutes only. After 2 minutes, it does not allow me to connect anymore. I contacted to their support after calling 121. They told me I don't have sufficient balance and I need to recharge 50 taka more to use Internet. IMAGINE!!! I ALREADY ACTIVATED P5 PACKAGE AND NOW THEY TOLD ME 50 TAKA MORE. Anyway, I went to shop and recharged 50 taka. Now I came back but same scenario I get disconnects immediately after connection established. Again I call them 121 , they told me the problem might be in my modem, so they suggest me to go to Mirpur-1 customer care. (The real thing is due to GP system Technical bug whenever I connected using P5 package it did not connect to P5 rather it connects to P1 ridiculous package and so within minutes it charged me 30 taka and I dont have any modem problem.)

Anyway, as they have suggested me I went to Mirpur-1 Grameenphone customer care. The customer manager inserted my modem to his laptop and he is getting disconnection just after connection established. He told me to go to Grameenphone service center. Note that in Dhaka there is 2 Grameenphone service center exists.

1. Agent Name: Discovery
Address: Suite 13/A, Chandrshilla Suvastu Tower, 69/1 Panthapath, Dhaka-1205.
There Samasung service center is Grameenphone modem service center.

2. Agent Name: Mobile Care
Address: 5th Floor, price plaza, 4/2 Sobhanbag, Mirpur Road, Dhanmondi, Dhaka-1207

The customer manager told me to go to Sobhanbag service center. I went to Sobhanbag but unfortunately at Tuesday price plaza is closed and so customer service center is closed too. So, I went to pantha path and in 13th floor. I saw several customers came with GP modem problem and unfortunately it seemed to me all are same problem like me and GP provided them false information about modem problem. Anyway, when my serial came, I told my problem then the customer service manager told me it is common problem for Grameenphone Internet modem model E1550. So she flushed my firmware and put a new updated version software. I did not bring my laptop. When I came back home I put the modem into my laptop. Now problem has changed and in fact it brought more problem. Now whenever I insert my modem into laptop it even can't recognize my SIM!!!

I am totally frustrated with GP as well as with their customer service at this point. At last I remember Kaosar vai about my frustration who is a member of GP employee and work in the customer service department. He informed me that it is totally GP problem and he will take care of it tomorrow because he was ill. Ok, I wait for tomorrow but till afternoon I see no good news. So I again go to grameenphone customer care and now instead of trying in their laptop they told me to go to there with my laptop! What would happen if the problem was in my desktop computer. I would go to there with my desktop pc!

Anyway, while I am in grammenphone center Kaosar vai informed me that my problem resolved and he wants me to try. I came back home and it worked really but not using this new modem driver. Alhamdulillah, I had old driver in my another laptop.

How to disable or remove blogger navigation bar

Before discussing about disable or removing tips let's have some idea about blogger navigation bar. Whenever you open any blog of blogspot by default you will see on the top of the post there is one bar by which you can search other blog, follow blog, share blog post, report abuse about objectionable content to the blogger, navigate to random next blog as well as from the right side of the bar you have sign in feature, create blog feature. If you login as blogger then on the right side of the bar you will see your email address, New Post, Customize, Dashboard, Sign Out menu there.

From following image it will be cleared what we meant by blogger navigation bar or navbar.
blogger navigation bar

Many ones want to remove that bar. There are many reasons behind it. May be they want to get rid of Report abuse / Flag blog feature. Whatever the reasons there is, in this post step by step I will show how we can remove or disable the navigation bar from your blog.

Step 01: Login to your blogger account from blogger.com and then click Layout on the blog that you want to disable the navigation bar.
If you already login to that blog you can simply click customize from the navigation bar.

Step 02: Under Layout menu there is Edit HTML. Click on it. You will get Edit Template box. It will look like,


Step 03: Add navbar css ID and make its height 0, visibility hidden, display none. That is adding following css codes inside your Edit HTML.
#navbar {
height: 0px;
visibility: hidden;
display: none;
}
After adding it will look like following,
body {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
background:$bgcolor;
color:$textcolor;
font-size: small;
}

#navbar {
height: 0px;
visibility: hidden;
display: none;
}

#outer-wrapper {
font:$bodyfont;
}
Alternatively you can add simply following code.
#navbar-iframe {
display: none ! important ;
}
which will look like,
body {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
background:$bgcolor;
color:$textcolor;
font-size: small;
}

#navbar-iframe {
display: none ! important ;
}

#outer-wrapper {
font:$bodyfont;
}
Either of the above code will work.

Step 04: Save the template and view the blog.
You are done.

Tips: Now from the blog you no longer will be able to see navigation bar and thus you will not find New post, Customize, Sign Out link. In order to see those you have to login to blogger.com and you need to maintain from there.

How to add different meta tags to different blogger blog posts

Well, sometimes you may think about your site meta tags, particularly you may want to add certain meta tags for different page for your websites. Whenever it comes to blog particually, blog posts of your blogger account you may wonder how to add metatags for different blog posts . As blogger blog engine is not open source so customization sometimes may be difficult and thus adding meta tags are difficult too.

Before looking into how to add meta tags there are some misconception presents regarding meta tags which need clarification. One of them is,

- "Does Google ever use the "keywords" meta tag in its search engine ranking"?
The answer is a big NO. Google never uses keywords meta tag for its search engine ranking. There are millions of websites containing meta tags with LEYWORDS. Google simply visit the site and ignore the meta tags. So simply "keywords" meta tags has no effect in google search engine ranking.

Another misconception present is,
- "Does Google completely ignores all metatags"?
The answer is NO. Though Google completely ignores "keywords" meta tag but it does not completely ignore the description meta tag. Google sometimes use the "description" meta tag as the text for the search results snippets which means it displays description part text while displaying the search results. It is like after we search for a word the page description text is displayed in the search results snippets. So it may attract user to click your link based on your attractive description meta tag.

Note that google do it sometimes but always remember that description meta tag has no effect in google search engine ranking.

Despite there is no search engine ranking effect by Google, still many ones like to add keywords and description meta tags for their site as well as for the blogger blog.
For the webpage the system is easy.
Within the <head> section you need to add META information like below.

<head>
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="Add metatgs blogger blog tips" >
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="Blogger tips about adding metatag Information to a blog post.>
</head>

But for blogger post there is no shortcut ways. You need to follow following steps in order to add different meta tags to your different blogger blog posts.


Step 01: Sign in to Blogger dashboard » Layout » Edit html
and find out the following line within html.
<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>

Step 02: Add following codes just below above line
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://arjudba.blogspot.com/"'>
<meta content='Arju's blog discussion with many IT stuffs. Oracle database, Php programming, shell script,
css+html, unix administration, Internet Marketing, Search engine optimization.' name='description'/>
<meta content='SEO Blogging Tips Oracle Mysql' name='keywords'/> </b:if>

In this stage your template will look like below.
<head>
<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://arjudba.blogspot.com/"'>
<meta content='Arju's blog discussion with many IT stuffs. Oracle database, Php programming, shell script,
css+html, unix administration, Internet Marketing, Search engine optimization.' name='description'/>
<meta content='SEO Blogging Tips Oracle Mysql' name='keywords'/> </b:if>
<b:skin><![CDATA[/*
* Blogger Template Style
Next Step: So now you have added meta tags for your homepage in this stage. In the same way you can add as many as keywords
and description meta tags for your blog post.
For example if we also like to enter meta tags for post
http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2009/11/affordable-search-engine-optimization.html
then our blog html will look like following.
<head>
<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://arjudba.blogspot.com/"'>
<meta content='Arju's blog discussion with many IT stuffs. Oracle database, Php programming, shell script,
css+html, unix administration, Internet Marketing, Search engine optimization.' name='description'/>
<meta content='SEO Blogging Tips Oracle Mysql' name='keywords'/> </b:if>

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2009/11/affordable-search-engine-optimization.html"'>
<meta content='Link building service, SEO packages' name='description'/>
<meta content='Affordable SEO packages. Silver, Gold, bronze, Diamond, Platinum Packages.' name='keywords'/> </b:if>

<b:skin><![CDATA[/*
* Blogger Template Style
Through above way, you can add as many as keywords and description meta tags for your blog posts as you like.

How to know when googlebot last crawled my page

The word crawling means how often googlebot visit your webpage in order to Index your web page. The program that is responsible for fetching web page information is called googlebot. Googlebot also called as robot, bot or spider. Googlebot uses an algorithmic process to determine which sites to crawl, how often, and how many pages to fetch from each site.

The most important your page is, the most often googlebot visit your webpage. Now it is question how I am able to know when my page was last crawled by googlebot. There are several methods to do it.

Using Google Webmaster Tools
The first you need to setup google webmaster tools. In the post http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-to-setup-google-webmaster-tool-for.html it is discussed how to setup google webmaster tools.

After you setup webmaster tools login to your webmaster tools, click Site Configuration tab and then click Crawler access. On the right side under under Test robots.txt you can find before how many hours/minutes/days your site was last visited by crawler. Here is a screenshot for this blog from the google webmaster links.
google webmaster tools crawler

Using Google Cached Links
Google takes a snapshot of each page as it crawls the web and caches these as a back-up in case the original page is unavailable.

In order to check when your page is cached just
1)Open www.google.com

2)Type your site address and click Google Search. Following image shows an example in case of my blog.
arju blog in google

3)You will see the search results like below.
search result for arju blog

4)If you click on the "Cached" link, you will see the web page as it looked when we indexed it. The cached content is the content Google uses to judge whether this page is a relevant match for your query. Following image shows the caching result from my blog.
cache page arju blog in google

When the cached page is displayed, it will have a header at the top which serves as a reminder that this is not necessarily the most recent version of the page. Terms that match your query are highlighted on the cached version to make it easier for you to see why your page is relevant. From the cache version you can easily check the date 29 Dec 2009 02:18:42 GMT. So homepage last cached in 29 Dec 2009 02:18:42 GMT.

How to check technorati ranking

If you ask me about the Technorati website I will say that Technorati is one of the buggiest websites I have ever seen. Lots of problems there and lots of things are non-functional. I don't understand why most review sites consider technorati rank. It is something like very funny. Almost half part of every page in technorati sites is filled by ads and I strongly criticise their look and feel. Their old site was buggy one and new site also seems more than bad.

I also don't understand how they show their authority or ranking system. I see my blog's authority is 1 but in the old site it had a good number. So, I guess in new site they have lost some data and hence displays incorrect information. From my observation I see most non-technical persons join in this buggy site and try to check technorati ranking in order to rank higher their site in the blog review site.

I also noticed that from their site there is no simple way to see the ranking and authority of your site as you can simply check from alexa. If you come across to this post of my site across google search then I also guess you are eager to check your technorati ranking. Because proceed it is good to know about their ranking and authority system.

From their site summary is,
What is Technorati Authority?
Technorati Authority measures a site's standing & influence in the blogosphere. With the October 2009 redesign of technorati.com, they have changed the Technorati Authority calculations to better reflect the continually changing attention of the blogosphere.

They have also added a new measure of Technorati Authority, which is topical by content category, i.e., technology, movies, automotive, etc.

How is Technorati Authority calculated?
Authority is calculated based on a site’s linking behavior, categorization and other associated data over a short, finite period of time. A site’s authority may rapidly rise and fall depending on what the blogosphere is discussing at the moment, and how often a site produces content being referenced by other sites.

The new Authority calculation differs from the past version, which measured linking behavior over a longer 6 month timeframe. Please note that links in blogrolls don’t count towards Authority, as they are not indicative of interest in relevant content; we stopped including blogroll links in August 2008.

Authority is on a scale of 0-1000. 1000 is the highest possible authority.

How does topical Technorati Authority work?
Topical Authority measures a blog’s influence within its subject category.
Blogs will appear ranked by topical authority within Technorati’s blog directory.
Factors include linking behavior from blogs and posts in the same category, how well a blog's overall content matches the category in question, and other associated data.
It’s possible for a blog to have authority in several different categories. The authority in each category may be different.

What is Technorati Rank?
Technorati Rank is a site's rank among the Technorati Authority of all sites. 1 is the highest rank.

They also determine topical ranks within categories, based on the topical Technorati Authority. As sites' Technorati Authority changes over time, ranks will also change.

How to check Technorati Ranking and authority
You can check technorati authority by their site urls. For example in case of blog arjudba.blogspot.com you can check their authority and ranking by following ways.

1)http://technorati.com/blogs/arjudba.blogspot.com to check their authority

2)You can also check technorati authority from their directory Open http://technorati.com/blogs/directory/ select blogs tab and then search for a blog. After typing my blog it will go you to the url
http://technorati.com/search?q=arjudba.blogspot.com&return=sites

3)You can check the top 100 blog by visting url
http://technorati.com/blogs/top100/
In the http://technorati.com/blogs/directory/ all blogs ranking there and also based on individual section ranking are shown. 1 means highest rank.

SEO, Link Building, Directory, Article submission Service

If you have ever concerned about selling something from Internet or through your site online then one of the major factor is bringing traffic to your site. The general rule is "The more traffic to your site, the more sale you have". But you should remember that you traffic must be organic. In fact traffic to your site from the users who are not interest to see products of your site is of no use.

Also the geographical factor is a issue here. The traffic from the country/state to where you can't deliver your product is of no use. In other way, we can say traffic from the country/state where people don't buy product online traffic from those countries/state is useless.

Whatever it is the best and more useful ways to bring traffic is search engine and hence search engine optimization is a hot topic in today's marketing world. After you search a term in a popular search engine like google the best position you gain for the specific keyword, the best possibility of getting more traffic to your site. So you need to focus on by which term user will search related to your product as well as the position of your site in google search engine by that keyword.

Search engine algorithm determines in which position your site will appear by a particular search term and it is not limited to a few factor. In fact there is more than 200 factors that determine your site position in search engine for a particular keyword.

To gain popularity of your site or to get more traffic to your site you must need search engine optimization services. If you site is new and you want to sell your product online then there is no alternative than SEO services. In this post I will try to present list of affordable SEO services that you can have a look at it. Note that all the works will be done manually. You will get many automatic products in the market and spend a little amount of those automatic products but in fact you spend something to gain nothing.

We use an approach that we have found to be successful in promoting site in all of the major search engines.

Guidelines for choosing the best web hosting service.

In order to make a website operational to Internet users, you at first need to build a web site and then you search for a web hosting service provider in order to host your website. There is over tons of websites that offer web hosting service. So it is your choice to pick the best web hosting service.

Before go through this topic have a look at What is web hosting service? in order to have an idea about web hosting. Also go through different types of web hosting based on application which is discussed in http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2009/06/different-types-of-web-hosting-services.html

In this topic, I am trying to present the guidelines for the best web hosting which will help you to pick a good web hosting provider.

1)Speed and reliability of the servers and hardware:
Be sure about the hosting server's actual hardware configuration as well as the speed of the hosting provider they offers.
- A good hosting service provider must have a high speed Internet connection (T3 or higher).

- It should opt for unlimited bandwidth for your website.

- Good hosting servers must support redundant servers. So that if one server fails another can operate.

- There must be an host administrator to do backup jobs of your web hosting data.

2)Amount of space needed for hosting and flexibility:
Your website contents must need space in the hosting server where it would be reside and if your site is dynamic(in case of blogs. forums, social marketing site), day by day your volume of space needed must increase. So before hosting your web site be sure the amount of space needed for you. Ask them up to how much they can support.

In the market you can get lower cost of 500MB hosting space in one hosting company than in 50MB space of other hosting company. In case of web hosting, this is much true that "The less money you spend in hosting, the poor service you receive".

Also besides choosing space ask the web hosting provider whether they can accommodate your changes in future. Like, in the near future you may need oracle database support or mysql database support which are not belong to your current package.

3)Customer Services:
This is one of the most criteria to choose a web hosting service. Make sure your web hosting service offers 24x7x365 support. That is you can reach them 24 hours/day, seven days a week and 365 days per year with real people on the phone or by email to help you without cost. Before doing hosting, you can easily test this by simply emailing them and check how much time they are taking to response you as well as measure how much effective their mail is.

Also,
- Look for the big customers they are offering service currently.

- Take the existing customers feedback.

- How many years your hosting company have been in the business.

- Are their hardware new and ask for RAM, processor configuration etc for their servers.

4)The features provided by hosting company:
Check for the features that are provided by the company that you are going to host your web site. Some basic and common features are,

- DNS registration for your web site.

- At least 20MB of space to host your files.

- Unlimited bandwidth - to upload files, to support traffic to your site.

- Free Technical Support.

- POP3 E-Mail Accounts - Based on the service you can get many email POP accounts, but they must offer at least 3 email POP accounts.

- Email Forwarding - So that you can forward email to your yahoo/gmail that you check often.

- Email Auto-responders - Some programs that will respond clients answer automatically. May have intelligence into the program or may be generic answer. Vacation response might be a generic auto response.

- Email Aliases - Allows you to create groups and you can assign several emails into the groups.

- FTP Access (File Transfer Protocol) - This is the protocol used on the Internet for sending files.

- FrontPage Support - If your hosting company support FrontPage extensions then you can edit the site online using the program.

- Own CGI-Bin Access (Common Gateway Interface)

- Server Side Includes (SSI) - can be used to dynamically insert information such as local time, date or file information.

- Password Protection - To access your web site contents there must be a authentication.

- Database support - MySQL, Oracle etc. database as you need them.

- Web Statistics - Though you can use various tools to see your web statistics but ask hosting provider whether they support any.

- Secure Server - You should process online credit card transactions through a secure server so the credit card numbers are encrypted.

- Shopping Cart Software - To enable eCommerce on your site you will need some type of method for processing orders online.

- Online Web Site Manager - There should be panel by which you can make changes to your site, maintain your site, account information and emails.

- Search engine submissions - Many hosting service provider offers for extra services like Search engine submissions.

- Virus Scanning - On windows hosting web hosting servers are responsible to do scanning and ensure your files to keep virus free.

- Reseller/referral program - Common program that exist almost in every web hosting company. If someone register to the web hosting service using your referral links then your referral program can pay 20% of the money that someone spend using your referral.

5)The amount you like to spend for hosting:
I already said, the more you spend the better service you get. There may be a little exception into it. However, for a small web hosting package of 20-50MB of allocated space for a site your cost may range from $5 to $100 per month. Anyway, before pick any package look for technical support they will provide.

If you follow the above basic guidelines, prior to choose a hosting company I hope, you will have a reliable, efficient and satisfying hosting service that will contribute to the success of your business for many years to come.

Peter Davies' Internet Marketing Blog, a student of Alex Jeffreys

This review is a summary of what Interactive Blogger, an internet marketing blog owned by Peter Davies. Peter has started and an Internet Marketing Business and is being mentored by a rising star in the Online world, Alex Jeffreys who has a great record of coaching newbies in internet marketing or those who have been struggling and don’t know where to go next. Alex in turn has been mentored by Rich Schefren whom Peter has also had the benefit of.

Alex communicates to his student the ethos of providing large amounts of value up front, so that anyone who has an online business or is thinking of creating an online business can receive great tangible benefits.

He sees internet marketing as a few simple steps;
  • First you build a blog with which you create great content to market with your readership, never try to direct sell to them

  • Use the blog to drive traffic to your site, add valuable information to other blogs, market yourself using several techniques, articles, video marketing, forums

  • Use to your traffic to build a list but don’t always try to sell to that list, give them large amounts of useful content first the sales will come later.


  • Peters’ approach has embraced Alex’s ethos, indeed he has decided as his first real venture to create a free product explaining through the eyes of someone who has recently gone through the process himself he has started a new online business from scratch. This is not a product that will get you rich overnight, he states quite clearly that there is no such thing, this covers the basics of planning, building the blog then blogging, generating traffic and building a subscriber list.

    This is a reflection of a genuine approach to getting started, watching him learn new things then apply them and watching him develop into an authority in his chosen field without the hype. Best of all its free! http://interactive-blogger.com

    List of freelancing job sites

    After the fallen of the global economy, many companies has been closed and much employees have been laid off. Some of these employees search for immediate work for living and go through various sites on internet to get work. Also most small and medium sized businesses search for freelancing sites in order to complete their works to lower cost. If a company keep a permanent employee, company has to pay like $5000~$6000 to an employee per month but through freelancing site company can hire a freelancer on demand work or per hour work basis which greatly will minimize the total cost of the company.

    In other hand, many freelancers like to do freelancing instead of regular jobs because they love to work from home. You don't have to face traffic zam, don't need to wait for bus, don't want to do some boring office works from 9 to 5pm and most importantly as a freelancer you have total freedom to choose what type of works you actually like to do.

    There are tons of sites in the Internet offering a repository of freelancing jobs. You can get service as well as provide service through those sites. Buyers post projects through the sites, coder bid on the projects, buyer select a coder based upon rating, experience and bid, after coder is select, coder will be responsible to complete the project. Upon work is accepted by the buyer coder can be paid. All the freelancing sites follow these rules. There is an escrow system before coder started to work so that there exists no scam.

    Besides some legitimate sites, there are tons of scam sites as well. So before doing freelancing tasks you need to aware of the good freelancing sites. In general, the sites where it asks money before doing registration normally they are scam sites. After analysis to various sites I am listing the best freelancing sites here.

    1)Elance.com (USA, founded in 1998):
    Elance.com is the largest online freelance site. If you want to do large professional job then elance.com is the best choice. Unlike other freelancing sites, elance.com charges freelance providers while posting the job in the list. So, it is very trusted one and posts are not fake. While in some freelancing sites there is much fake posting and bidders bid on those project but lastly provider cancel the project. So no waste of time from freelancers.

    2)GetAFreelancer.com (Sweden, started in February 2004):
    GetAFreelaner.com gets huge traffic compared to others because of it's posting flexibility. You can find freelance coders, writers, programmers, designers, marketers and more. But still the site needs to make much improvement as I see several bugs there. Besides they have several limitations and bad features like pop up windows while bidding or editing post. The great limitation is their support system is really worst.

    3)ScriptLance (Canada, started in 2001):
    Provides a service that helps businesses find freelance programmers and designers for their projects. This site has the lowest fees. It has no recurring fees, no project posting fees. Webmaster/Programmer will have to pay per project fee at the point of project acceptance (when webmaster had selected a programmer for the project and programmer accepted the project). It is your best choice if you want really cheap coding.

    4)Rent-a-coder (USA, started in 2001):
    Rent-a-coder may also be your choice but it has several limitations. As posting project is totally free so freelancers sometimes waste much time while bidding a project that is going to cancel. When you get a project done through Rentacoder you put the entire project fees into an escrow account. You don't release the fees until the project is complete. From my experience I see Rent-a-coder is biased to seller. So upon completion of your work you may not get your money. But it is really good for buyers(software providers). Another limitation of them is they are not good who have really slow internet and sites become down often. So you may not submit your tasks within the site in time and any off -site communication means they will not pay you.

    5)Guru.com (USA, started August 2000):
    According to Guru.com, it is one of the leader in freelancing industry with more than 1 million registered members and 100,000 active freelancer profiles. By using SafePay Escrow, Employers are guaranteed 100% satisfaction with their project results. They have some innovative features, such as an online Video Profile, give Freelancers a cutting edge platform to highlight their skills and experience to attract new business and retain repeat customers.

    6)GetACoder.com: (USA, UK, Hong Kong, Portugal):
    It was one of the good site in the freelancing sites. Now they rather go much for advertisement instead of freelancing. Still you can use them. According to them. When you use GetACoder you are stretching your budget and saving as much as 60% over traditional outsourcing. GetACoder is changing business, now it's no longer about what you own or build but which resources and talent you can access. With GetACoder you reduce expenses, increase efficiencies, aggressively grow your business, and create a sustainable competitive advantage.

    How to increase your technorati authority or rank

    Well, possibly your google page rank has been dropped to zero while you are doing reviews inside your blog and now you really looking for ways to increase your page rank. Besides google page rank, alexa rank , backlinks, there is another ranking method which is technorati rank. Most of the review sites rank their site based on alexa rank, technorati rank, backlinks. So if you ever aware of reviewing sites don't bother about page rank, look for technorati rank.

    What is Technorati Rank
    Understand about technorati authority or rank is important. Note that to appear a blog into technorati rank you need to register technorati.com and then you need to claim you blog indicating that you are the owner of the blog. It may seem very painful work as the site has lots of bug regarding claim and others, may be it is temporary glitch.

    About your blog is claimed you can now see your technorati rank. Note that the rank depends on mainly how many other blogs in Technorati actually link back to your blog. It is not how many blogs link back to you, but how many blogs Technorati knows about that link back to yours.

    However, it's rank also based upon the number of fans they have, the blog posting frequency, and other secret factors.

    After you claim your blog, other users of Technorati will have the ability to add your blog to their favorites and adding tags to your blog which in turns will increase your rank. But now due to bugs this main feature seems not working. :-)

    Why Technorati Authority or Rank is Important
    Many bloggers and webmasters don't understand about the importance of technorati rank.
