Blog Updates And Announcements

Blog Updates And Announcements

by Melvin · Oct 6, 2009

September was a pretty good month for me because that was the month that I didn’t have to wake up early and sleep early to prepare for stupid internships. I was able to take the much needed rest and relaxation while also being productive doing what I want and what I need. It was good also because I was able to raise enough money to support myself and my expenses without needing to annoy my parents asking for allowance.

Anyways for this version of blog updates here are some of the more notable happenings and changes to the blog.

  • Pagination Problems Resolved
  • No theme change up to the end of the year
  • WWSGD plugin removed
  • Guest Posting galores on some blogs
  • Loyal Commenters Awarded.

So first is the pagination thing. You can now look at the footer part and click the next page or paged number as its completely working well now. I have also decided not to change the blog’s theme up to the end of the year at least! You can remember me posting an article asking you on whether to change the theme or not and the final decision is not yet. Meanwhile the popular WWSGD plugin w/c analyzes cookies and sends out different message for different visitor has been removed. I really love the plugin but since it’s hurting my search rankings, I have decided to pull it off. Credits to Mihaela. I’ve also guest posted on some of the blogs and well most of my guest posts are still not up. Hmm. Lastly all the the people on the top commentator’s list were rewarded with free advertising for a month. These are bloggers who kept on reading and commenting on my posts despite the atrocity of it. πŸ˜€

Announcement

greatdeals

The major announcement that I am going to make is theΒ  launch of Great Deals in the near future. Great Deals is eventually just a part of the site (a page actually) where you can see offers you’ve never really seen before. OIO Publisher for $27? How about the Ultimate Blogging Theme for just $47? Most offers are UNBELIEVABLE and those things mentioned are just preludes. Yeah, you’re not gonna believe it. πŸ˜€

And yes, suggestions, criticisms, opinions, advice is always entertained. If you have something to say which you think can really improve it would be highly ridiculed appreciated.

Blog Updates & Some Ramblings

by Melvin · Jul 31, 2009

Answers to q & a would be on the next post. πŸ™‚

It’s been pretty obvious that the internship has affected the way I manage all my online business, including this blog of course. If you would take a sneak at the Archives page you would see that the post count has dropped from the usual 12-13 posts per month to 5 posts per month (June & July). I have also put all my other online projects in hiatus to give way to the stressing internship. And to be honest, I actually haven’t figured out yet the right ‘time management’ for it.

Anyways back here in the blog, it seems that I have already fixed most of the flaws in the theme template. As you may notice, the pagination/paging of the blog located at the footer is now doing well. I would like to make mention of Mr.Bhavesh of CSSACE who responded to me professionally despite my fuming anger. πŸ˜‰ He supported me all throughout the process and it was really helpful to me. The only problem right now is that I lost the advertisers ads at the sidebar (2 banners, 3 text links) due to my carelessness. I am trying to look for those advertisers contact but just can’t seem to find it.

Lastly, I would like to extend my gratitude to the Market Leverage family, specifically for Dina Riccobono. If you would remember, last January I won a contest sponsored by Market Leverage. The ML family sent me an Ipod w/c never reached me until now. Dina and I were negotiating about the possible substitute and last solution was the paypal payment (w/c has always been my last option). Like Bhavesh, Dina handled my emails very well (and in a very friendly manner). πŸ™‚ I’m not sure if other Affiliate companies would do the same in that situation. Thanks guys!
