3 important ways to get more targeted visitors to your website or blog !!
Three important ways to get more targeted visitors to your website or blog
You have published a blog or a website with wonderful and attracting features. But if there is not visitors all your works are meaningless. Your site or blog may promte something, may be your busieness, I mean your product or services or may sell your adplaces by Googe adsense ads or any such leading adnetwork ads. But you could optimise your site only with the visitors. Only with targetted visitors you can attain your goals. You may be aware that all visiotrs will not clicked on your ads or buy your products or services. Only a percentage, a low percentage will help you to attain your goals. Let us see some methods to attract targeted visitors to your site.
1. Keyword traffic:- So you have to attract maximum visitors to your site. With your keywords and articles you can attract some visitors through search engines and those visitors will be targetted visiotrs, those who followed your keyword by searching the web and a certain percentage of them will do the clicks. Because they are targeted visitors. So the first and foremost thing is choose proper keywords to get more and more targeted visitors through search engines.
2. Advertise your site:- This is one of the important method to attract targeted visitors to your site. When you advertise in Google adsense, Bidvertiser or such Pay Per Click advertisements net works, they also have search engines and some of them are popular also. When a person search with a keyword your ads with suitable keywords also display with the search results and most times this will be attractive and may be on the visible place. When the person see your ad which is suitable with his keyword, he will click the ads and visit your site and you can attain your goal from the targeted visitor.
3.Answeruing questions in question and answer site:- This is also interesting and helps you to get targeted visitors, when you answer questions of such site and place a link in the soruce box. But the main thing is that you have to answer questions according your niche and the site you linked with it also should be the same theme of the question, or something special should be there on your site which should be sastisfy the person looking answers.

Starting to make a money making site
You cruise around the internet killing time and one common factor keeps popping up to you, Money making websites. Everywhere you go online you stumble upon a money making website. This makes you ask the question, should I start a money making website of my own?
Initially starting a money making website is a low cost low risk venture. There are free methods available online but it’s best to grab yourself your own domain for a minimal spend. So you know you can start up a money making website that has the potential to make you thousands of dollars for practically nothing but the real question you need to ask yourself is have you got the drive to make a winner out of this site.
If you go into this project with the same mindset as 95% of other people you will fail. This is because these people expect to make money over night or quick money within a week. It doesn’t work like this. It takes time to build a successful money making website, sometimes years but over time you will add to your web estate and work and nurture your sites so they are all making money.
Don’t look at this in a bad way, if you take your time to learn the ropes and slowly build up your empire the more likely your revenue will last and stay stable over a longer period. This is just good business practice whether it is online or offline. You don’t want to make big dollars today and then never see a cent for the rest of your online business career.
Start a money making website today and be one of the few that has the patience to see it through. Stay with it for the long haul and watch has your web estate becomes more and more successful.

Top 3 Ways to Make Money on the Internet
The Internet offers a huge number of different ways to make money. These are 3 of the most important.
1. Affiliate Marketing: You can choose different affiliate networks such as Clickbank. These are websites where merchants offer their products and reward affiliates for each sale they make. The affiliate has to place a banner on his website to either send visitors to the merchant website or to sell the merchant's product, both in exchange for a share of the profits. Overall this is one of the easiest ways to start making money on the internet due to the fact that you don't need to develop and promote your own products, you only need to have a website.
2. eBay: This is probably the biggest market place on the internet these days. Millions of people visit their stores and thousands of transactions are made daily. Ordinary people like you and me can take advantage of this incredible opportunity. You could start right now if you wish; all you need is a product to sell, a PayPal account and a digital camera. There are tons of websites where you can find detailed information about eBay and how to make money from it.
3. AdSense: This is probably the most important money making method for those who own a website. The earning potential is unlimited. Some are earning hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly this way. Even if your site doesn't get huge amounts of traffic you can take advantage of this opportunity.
These 3 methods have something in common: anybody can use them, even those who don't have any experience in internet marketing and online businesses.

Why a job is not a long term solution to Financial Freedom
This weekend I am not able to do much posting on my blog and other activities.
Why?
Its year end! And my boss want me to send him my achievements for the year to convince him that I am still a valuable asset to the company. It's frustrating despite working 10hrs everyday I still have to spend my weekends gathering 'statistics' to prove what I have contributed just because my boss does not keep a record of what I have done.
For the numerous Bosses that I worked for nowadays, they are just interested in protecting their own job and getting a fat bonus and pay check end of the day. An employee to them is just a tool, if you are perceived to no longer be able to portray that you are a valuable asset you are just wasting your time working in the company.
Noticed I used the word perceived and portray, because in my company everything is about perception. How well you 'work' with your counter parts and managers. Did you buy them coffee or beer to make them happy for the past few months? This will determine your pay check.
I have awakened to realize the opportunity and time lost over the years of selling my time to get a few thousand dollars of salary.
Do you think it is worth selling your life time for just a few thousand dollars?
I know I will not if given a choice!

How to insulate yourself from the impact of the economic crisis
We all know it’s getting ugly out there. Jobs are going, share prices have plummeted, year-end bonuses look shaky and anxiety levels are sky-high. Time, then, to batten down the hatches.
For many people, that means keeping their finances on track until the economy turns the corner.
Experts have various tips on how to do this, but they mostly boil down to belt-tightening and taking a hard look at expenses and liabilities.
Ms Anne Tay, OCBC Bank’s vice-president of group wealth management, encourages people to go back to basics and revisit some principles of managing wealth.
‘I agree that we are entering turbulent times now and cash is king. But bear markets or financial crises come and go and things will recover,’ she notes.
‘The real test is how long it will take and can we hold out that long. This is an opportunity to rethink our wealth-building strategy.’
Here are 10 tips to ride out the recession.
1 Take stock of your cash position
It is vital to get a handle on your cash flow - income versus expenses - so that you know how vulnerable you are if, say, you get retrenched.
Ms Janice Poon, Standard Chartered Bank’s general manager of wealth management, believes that managing cash flow is the first step towards planning for a rainy day and it could mean having enough cash for emergencies.
‘It’s something you should be doing all the time but it’s even more critical during a downturn,’ she says.
The chief executive of financial advisory firm New Independent, Mr Joseph Chong, says people must ensure they have enough emergency funds.
‘This should be in the region of six to 12 months of your monthly expenses. The downturn in the global and Singapore economies will see more layoffs and fewer hirings,’ he says.
2 Home loans
In this high-inflation, low-interest-rate environment, one of the best things you can do is to review your debts and refinance wherever possible.
It is crucial to prioritise your debts and manage them.
Your home loan should rank high in this scheme of things simply because it is a big-ticket item. This means it could provide the single biggest cost-saving option.
Consider moving to a variable rate mortgage pegged to the three-month Sibor or Singapore interbank offered rate. This rate fell to a near five-year low of 0.89 per cent on Tuesday and was 0.95 per cent on Friday.
Mr Chong notes that central banks around the world are slashing interest rates to head off a steep recession, so short-term rates are expected to stay low next year.
This means big savings for those on variable packages.
Alpha Financial Advisers’ chief executive, Mr Arthur Lim, suggests that home owners look for refinancing savings by checking out the different mortgage rates - but take into consideration any penalty charges.
3 Credit card debt
With hard times coming, consumers should be wary about credit card spending and unsecured debts such as credit lines.
‘The good times experienced by Singapore over the last few years have lulled individuals into complacency and some bad habits have been built up, such as not paying your credit card bills in full,’ says Mr Kuo How Nam, president of Credit Counselling Singapore (CCS), a non-profit group that advises debtors.
‘This is a good time to tighten their belts, pay off the unsecured consumer debts as fast as possible and build up a buffer fund as a cushion if something bad happens to their jobs and incomes.’
One way is to curb spending on non-essentials.
Ms Chenise Lim, vice-president at ipac financial planning Singapore, warns consumers that credit card debt is one of the most expensive loans available.
‘Don’t be taken in by the minimum payment option on your statement, as outstanding balances can attract an annual interest cost of up to 24 per cent. If you’re unable to pay your debt in full, try to pay as much as possible and then set aside your credit card and avoid using it until your debt is fully cleared,’ she says.
4 Consolidate your debts
As a guide, your monthly long-term debt commitments should not exceed 35 per cent of your monthly gross income.
Consider debt consolidation if you have outstanding balances with different credit card companies and have difficulty paying. CCS can negotiate with these banks and help restructure the repayment of these debts on your behalf.
Ms Poon suggests taking advantage of balance-transfer promotions offered with a lower interest rate to refinance your higher-cost debt.
5 Review insurance policies
Mr Chong urges people to ensure that their hospitalisation policies are in force.
‘Remember, you cannot rely on your company’s insurance coverage, especially in a downturn, as the company may not always be there,’ he says.
An exception is if you have a portable medical plan that follows you even when you leave your employer.
Check if your policies still meet your financial objectives. You may want to discontinue them if they are no longer necessary. Otherwise, it is prudent to take a policy loan, says Mr Lim.
This means you maintain your protection while you take a premium holiday.
During this period, premiums will be deducted against the policy’s cash value so you still enjoy your cover.
6 Review your investment portfolios
It is very likely that many investors’ portfolios have suffered big losses with gains wiped out and even the starting capital reduced.
Given that your objectives, time horizon and risk appetite remain unchanged, Mr Lim recommends restructuring the portfolio to cater for more risk.
But if taking on more risk is not consistent with your investment profile, then either moderate the target amount needed or extend your time horizon.
Here’s a suggestion from Mr Chong on how to restructure a portfolio: ‘At least rebalance your portfolio in accordance with your investment-risk profile. A 60 per cent equities and 40 per cent fixed income portfolio would probably need to be rebalanced by selling one-third of the fixed income and deploying the proceeds into equities.’
This discipline means you automatically buy cheap as equities now are at bargain prices with an average dividend yield of 4 per cent. ‘The economy and the stock market will eventually recover as global money supply is beginning to pick up in response to the aggressive central bank rate cuts,’ Mr Chong adds.
7 Investment checklist
If you are planning to enter the market, Ms Lim says you should ensure that your investment strategy is well diversified across asset classes, countries, sectors and stocks.
In addition, practise dollar-cost averaging, which involves buying into the market via a fixed sum regularly so when the prices are low, your money buys more units.
Over the long term, your portfolio will benefit as markets tend to trend upwards.
For stock traders, DMG & Partners head of research Terence Wong’s advice is to stay away if they need the cash in the next couple of months.
Enter only if you are willing and able to wait for the long haul. While stocks appear cheap now, he expects better opportunities next year as the negative sentiments are expected to weigh on the market.
8 Use of CPF top-ups
Enjoy tax relief on your income when you top up either your own CPF Minimum Sum or those of your immediate family members.
You can enjoy tax relief of up to $7,000 a year if you use cash to top up for yourself and/or receive cash top-ups from your employer.
You can enjoy an additional tax relief of up to $7,000 a year if you use cash to top up for your siblings, spouse, parents or grandparents.
Your siblings and/or spouse must have earned $2,000 or less in the preceding year to qualify for the tax relief.
The giver can claim tax relief in the following year’s tax assessment.
9 Use the Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS)
Contributions to the SRS account bring income-tax relief. You can contribute any amount each year subject to a cap of $11,475 for Singaporeans and permanent residents and $26,775 for foreigners.
Besides providing you with the discipline to save consistently for retirement, SRS gives an additional nest-egg on top of your CPF account.
Note that 50 per cent of your withdrawals from SRS is subject to tax at retirement. Withdrawals can be made over a period of 10 years. With lower or nominal income at retirement, you may end up paying little or no income tax.
10 Recession-proof your job
With job cuts reported more often now, this is not the time to take an extended holiday or sabbatical. Be visible, go beyond your basic responsibilities, upgrade yourself and continue to network.
Remember, no one will lay off a star performer.
But, update your resume just in case.

A Stock Market Crash
Many people are frightened by the stock market because of the stories about past market crashes. Yes, those crashes did happen, but the fear surrounding them is more hype than substance.
TIP
Your fear that the market will collapse as it has done in the past is best dismissed by learning that the probability of another crash is infinitesimal and that the damage caused by previous crashes was not as bad as the public’s perception of them.
On October 29, 1929, the Dow, a measurement of the stock market as a whole, fell 30 points to close at 230.07. This represented a drop of almost 13 percent in the whole market. The loss of market value was roughly $14 billion, a staggering sum even now. This meant that $14 billion of the total amount invested into the market by people and by entities such as pension funds was simply gone. The severe ramifications of this event affected even those people who had not actually invested in the market. The subsequent depression, while not directly a result of the stock market crash, further entrenched the idea that investment in the stock market would later reduce the investor to selling apples on a street corner while wearing a barrel. Finally, the stories and depictions of grown men throwing themselves off roofs and crying at their desks assured the general masses that stock investments could only cause heartache.
