Increase visitors for free with Stumbleudon

!! Merry Christmas !!
Hello friends.

After coming into this field of blogging It was hard for me to get more visitors.And after some years of dedication I managed to get daily 20 visitors thorough Google search. And 20 visitors per days is like nothing so one of my friend who is in blogging from about 5 years told me to use Stumbleupon.



StumbleUpon is a service with which bloggers around the world share good articles and review those. If a stumbler come across the same page which is already reviewed by other stumblers then he/she can view that page's reviews and submit his/her own review else he/she can discover that page to StumbleUpons database.And can mark that page with "I like it!/Do not" so that it get added to the reviewers favorite pages.Real stumblers use StumbleUpon to get real and interesting content but SEOs use it for more visitors.So make more followers as more friends means more visitors in StumbleUpon.

But what if you are not a popular blogger and don't have more friends in your list.
And don't have time to submit content to every stumbler in your list. In that case StumbleUdon is very much useful.You just need to have 20 followers in your list then you can join StumbleUdon.Stumbleudon is a service which provides stumblers free stumbles. The stumbler only need to submit the content link to StumbleUdons servers with simple 3 step procedure. And then other stumblers stumble the page till 24hours. The Number of visitors totally depends upon the quality of content you write.Keeping this in mind I updated my writing skills.And started sharing my web content to StumbleUdon.

Following is the statistics of my blog in year 2009.


(You can check my Sitemeter statistics by clicking on visitor counter at bottom of this page)

I was member of StumbleUdon since October 2008 but started using StumbleUdon in full throttle from last week of April 2009 .In May 2009 I purchased Sony Ericsson C510 camera phone and posted it to my blog. I shared that link to other stumblers they discovered that page and then I submitted that page to StumbleUdon asap.When I spread it to StumbleUdon free traffic machine I got more visitors.The post was about new phone so was popular amongst StumbleUpon users.

StumbleUdon helped me more in other posts too like Opps!! Are we similar. As you can see in above picture of my blogs statistics I managed to get around 4 thousand pageviews with around 2449 unique visits. I got it as my content was a little interesting and I submitted it to StumbleUdon quickly.To show you what I am saying is not lie please check its reviews or views they are 1127 views and check other page's reviews.I know these figures are to be praised but it's good for me.

After September 2009 you can see the fall down of visitors and this is because of I was busy in exams as I am a student. But whenever I get time I try to post good content.

I know there are many StumbleUpon users who have page views of around 30K and more but after using services of StumbleUdon I managed my blog to get Page Rank 2 from nowhere. It was N/A for more than a year and then it got PR0 after introducing it to StumbleUpon it became PR1 and now its PR2 :D And these figures are one of my biggest achievement in blogging. I am not a professional blogger or God in blogging but for a small blogger like me getting more readers is the only aim.

And this is satisfied by StumbleUdon with the help of StumbleUpon.So join it and get free stumbles.Why to spend $$ when you get more visitors and free stumbles from Stumbleudon.Join Stumbleudon here for free


Few important things about Stumbleudon are,you
1. must have 20 or more friends in your list of stumbleupon.
2. will get free stumbles once in 24 hours
3. spread new and original links to get more traffic( I assure if its original and more self explanatory then that page may explode like nuclear bomb and may get thousands of visits in less time and its legal)
4. get free stumbles daily but udons are to be stored to get multiple stumbles.
5. Page must be discovered to stumbleupon database.
6. should not submit old link which has already more than 100 stumbles as this will act as spam and other stumblers will ignore your sent pages.
7. Write original and fresh content and get more visitors

So start stumbling and submit fresh content to Stumbleudons to get more free visitors.But don't use it as a only source of traffic because the key is good content.

Happy new year in advance :D

How to create a PayPal Account ?



If you want to get a new PayPal account then you must be already known to what PayPal actually does !!

But if you don't then this information is useful too .

What is PayPal ?
"PayPal is an e-commerce business allowing payments and money transfers to be made through the Internet. PayPal serves as an electronic alternative to traditional paper methods such as checks and money orders"- Wiki

My view is not much different in fact it is same as wiki.
PayPal gives its customers access to shop from several online purchasing sites. Currently most of the sites support PayPal. Even you will find many other online money transfer agents like AlertPay and Neteller. You even can create your own PayPal site but his is not important in current scenario.

Simply you Shop with PayPal by giving your PayPal id and password , the vendor itself decides the amount and you have to pay that after secured login. So you can buy without using your credit card number its safer than credit card. In every shopping some amount is taken away by PayPal as their service charges. Suppose if you spend 10USD then 0.69 USD will get deduct.

(*Note: While sharing money from friend or while doing man-man transaction send money as personal use )



You can add money to your PayPal account by validating your account with your credit card. And requesting money via PayPal.

So lets get started with
How to create PayPal account ?

The method for creating PayPal account is simple as creating a mail id on gmail :P

You just need to complete the form with all valid and true information about yourself.You will get a line saying "Link my credit card so I can start shopping right away (recommended)"
But if you do not have credit card then don't panic believe me you can still create account . Just click save,finish. They will send you activation link on your typed e-mail id you just need to confirm that request within 24 hours .

You are done . Now Earn money through different sources, store money in PayPal account and then shop through your PayPal id. Check for verified seller and purchase from there only.

Blogger has introduced new widget which is Tag Cloud . I will guide you for installing new Tag cloud or label cloud widget for your site on blogspot. For Wordpress users the widget was released few years ago . But for a blogger user this is new . The old Label widget has been modified to show cloud like structure which is inspired from Wordpress.

Google Page Rank updated again



Yes Google has again updated its PR . I got my blogs Page Rank updated to 2 . A month ago it was PR 1 . Thank you all the visitors and readers of my blog . I am blogging from more than year and in this season Google has updated its PR at least 5-6 times . I remember when my blog was a new one then after its 1 month Google updated PR. And at that time I got PR 0 :D

And the next update was performed after 5 months . Everyone was aware that Google updates its PR after 5 to 6 months . But now the things are not the same and Google is updating its PR after every month. Don't know the reason why but its good for the bloggers like me .

The post which gave me PR 2 is the Dino Game Pad

But as a coin has two sides this update also has few benefits and few drawbacks.
You all are aware of the benefits of Page Rank and its update . You get high PR according to the visitors and back links etc . You can sell links and other stuff which will benefit you in earning few more bucks from the blog .

But due to high link sales your Page Rank can fall down again . And as Google is doing it monthly so it is not good for those who have planned to go out for vacations . As a month can affect the Page Rank not badly but could affect upto some level . This is not a fact it is my opinion might be wrong but I believe it is true.

I don't know why Google is updating the Page Rank at every month end . But at this stage I can say that this update is good for me . But when I will again join my college after vacations I may loose what I have now .

Check your Page Rank NOW otherwise Google may again update it :D LoL
Most of you will not believe on what I am talking . But if you recall the launch of bing then bing got PR2 after May 2009 PR update . But if you check it now then the PR of bing is 9 !!
Yes Bing's PR is 9 .

So check it now or later in next month . I can guess the next PR update now and it might me 24th July 2009 .

If you want to know more about the Google Page Rank then ask Wikipedia .
:D

How to make more money with a blog ?



In this post I am going to tell you how to make more money with your blog .
This is a additional income source which is safe for Adsense . So are you interested in earning some more money ?
This could be the income source for those who are banned from Adsense .


So I am considering you that you are with me . Now I can tell you the procedure .
So this is about the company Credit Burner which pays you 2.5 USD for displaying their ads . It all depends upon the quality traffic you have on your site . If you direct more traffic which are human visitors . But if you go with some improper source like buying traffic for cheap price then they will pay you less as they need unique and non-bot visitors . More the visitors on the site more the income . 2.5 USD for 1000 Unique Visitors .



For those who have more the traffic from US, UK like countries then you have more opportunities to earn more . The ads which are shown are for all ages .

Few benefits of joining this program are as fallows .

# You will get a 0.35$ bonus for registering account .
# Pays 2 times in a month with minimum 2.5$ .
# Variety of ads like banners ,links ads , context ads ,interstitial ads etc .
# No restrictions on the location of the publisher .
# Referral commission is up to 14%
# Paypal account required to get your money .

As I have told you have options like banner , link and other ad types . But the most effective is the cpm banner ad .



If you place the ad of this type then the users will get the animated ad which are more appealing . Cpm banner is safe , other ad codes redirect the traffic so please fallow my advice .

Things To Remember

Few Advantages :
# 2.5$ for 1000 UV
# 2 payments in a month .
# Income is directly proportional to the visitors .

Few Disadvantages :
# Most of the ad types redirect your user to the product site.
# Time for loading the site will be increased as the animated ad gets loaded on the terminal .
# Not more beneficial for non-US traffic .

I have used this service for more than a year . Was happy with that but due to less visitors the income was less for me . So for me it was best to remove the Credit Burner ad code .

But you can try it if you have more traffic . So register here first . For registration you will need your name , paypal id , and email id for further procedure.

Register your account here -> Credit Burner

How to create a blog ?



For a newbie this tutorial is very simple to create a blog with the help of blogger.
A newbie gets the only question in his mind is "How he can create a blog ? "

My answer is ...


To create a blog you need to fallow some steps . And if you fallow it in the given manner then all the things are easy . I will tell you the procedure of creating a blog on blogger .

A software setup on your computer needs to have minimum system requirements for it to get installed . Like this you should satisfy some requirements .

Note :Please don't close browser in between else you will have to do it again .


1> Create a Gmail or blogger account . It is better to create a Gmail account as with the same name you can access other services of Google . Like Orkut , blogger , Adsense etc .



2> Profile : After creating the account on gmail go to blogger.com and sign in with your gmail account . Then you will get a page requesting you for your profile name .Give you name there . And click on continue tab .

3> Blog Address :Now the page with blogs title and url will be navigated . On this page you will have to insert the desired title for your blog and the address for your blog .


Blog Title - For example counter-strikefan
http://www.##your blogs title##.blogspot.com


Check the url for availability if it is available then continue else keep trying new and unique address for your blog . Blogger helps you by suggesting names related to your blogs title.

And remember you blogs address write it somewhere for further checking .Because most of the times the newbie don't remember the blogs address as he is new to it :D

After doing this click on the continue tab for further steps .


4> You Are Done: Your blog is created now and you will get new page saying . Blog created successfully :D . But you are not done yet .

5> Posting : You will be navigated to the page of posting . This will be your new and first post .

According to me make the first post as your introduction to the world . Means who you are and what is the blog about .

Select the title as Hello World .
And write about you in the content block . After you are done then click the publish page button .

And your first post will be created .

6> Check Blog :
You can view your post with the view post or go to your blog url .


Finally your blog should look like this sample blog this page counter-strike .

7> For posting purpose you will have to sigh in to your blogger account and go to new post section in the listed blog .


If you encounter any problem then comment it here I will help you .

Take care and keep blogging :D

I am feeling like a semi-pro geek now :D


Hello :D

I am a lazy blogger I know but whenever I write then it is worth reading . I always try to make you happy .

The reason for this post is to share my approx 1 years journey in blogging . I am not a great professional blogger but I am a blogger :D and this is important .


It started like ---

" In June 2007 my father bought me a acer laptop as I had taken admision in MCA . Then after joining college I got new friends . Broke up with few but again got another .
And those I got were good but one of them was a hidden treasure of internet . He is Chetan Gole good friend of mine now .

But at that time I was unaware of him and blogging too :D As the time passed he explored me about blogging and gave me few tips . He taught me how to create a blog with your google profile and etc . I am a blogger due to him otherwise I still would be wasting my time on orkut and other sites :D

Like a big brother he told me what to do an what not to .So it was easy for me to improve much faster . Firstly I did it with enthusiasm but due to college and other activities it was hard to be a dedicated blogger :( Still it is same .

When I created this blog I thought now money will fall like rain drops on me but this was not true . After experiencing the facts I realized that you need to have it in your heart and soul to be a professional blogger and then only you can think of earning .

To run behind money is good but here in blogging when you run only for money then money also run away from you .

Keeping this in mind I blog and try to keep my guests happy :D

Now when I am getting more interested in blogging I always get the fear to loosing this work . Means after 1 or 2 years I will get job as I will complete my MCA . And after that won't get time for blogging . I am not so sure about my future but I will remain a blogger forever .

In my blogging experience I had few good and best posts .
Some of the good posts are

Opps!! Are we similar ?
How to create BB connection
Canon A1000 IS digital camera-PowerShot
etc.

You liked this most . Thank you for reading my blog content .
Because of you only I got Page Rank 1 after more than a year .

As google has complemented me with the gift of PR 1 now I should keep continue blogging . Now I can aim high and get more PR under 2-4 will be like in heaven for me :D

I will be updating you about my work .
And again thank you for appreciating my work . As now I have also some powers of handling internet I feel like a semi-professional blogger who wants to become a professional blogger soon .
"

Thank you :D


Keep smiling
