Buy and sell Panama real estate at Encuentra24

May 25, 2008 by Tricia

Have you ever thought of living in an exotic local? Sure we all dream about living on an island or perhaps somewhere in South America, but few of us act on those dreams. Why?

I say why not? It’s a global world, there are several jobs that can be done from home – a home located anywhere in the world.

If you’ve ever thought of moving to Panama or perhaps you might be moving there due to your current job you might want to visit Encuentra24. It’s the leading Panama real estate listing service provider in Panama.

Features of the site include a large database of properties both for sale and for rent as well as images of most of the properties.

Perhaps you are in Panama right now and would like to sell or rent your property? Just visit Encuentra24, register and list your property. It’s that easy. Your ad will be seen by up to 800,000 prospective buyers and renters.

Along with being the largest Real Estate in Panama website, you’ll also find a variety of classified listings at Encuentra24. You can buy or sell cars and vehicles, find or list jobs, buy or sell items or find trade services to do work on your property.

I tried searching for properties on the site and I found the site easy to use. I was also pleased with the number of listing and their quality. The ones I found included pictures and even video of the properties.

If you are looking for property in Panama do check out the Real Estate Tips article. The article discusses how to buy real estate in Panama, discusses Panama real estate taxes, and among other great tips you’ll also learn which areas are the best areas to buy property in Panama.

I’m fairly happy here in Toronto, but sometimes during our long winters I dream about living in a place without snow. Who knows, maybe even I’ll move to a place like Panama someday. Hey, these days my job is on the internet – why not?

Best Google Adsense day so far!

May 24, 2008 by Tricia

In an earlier post I mentioned that I’d been working on my main website for the last couple of days. Well … it’s a pure HTML based website and it’s huge so any time I want to make a change to the site I have to go through each and every page (if it’s a site wide change, that is). It takes forever, but I think the work that I just spent a couple of days doing is going to pay off big time.

Along with adding a new Privacy policy page as per the new Google Adsense TOS, I decided to implement some of the things I learned through the Adsense Secrets e-book that I purchased in late April.

I wrote a post about getting the Adsense Secrets 4.0 ebook on April 25th – I guess you can consider this an update almost exactly a month later.

I can now tell you that the e-book that I purchased for the low price of $9.95 has paid for itself several times over in the last two weeks or so.

If you are a regular reader of this site or any of my other blogs you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been playing with my Adsense placements as well as trying out a few other affiliate programs like Chitika.

Well my tinkering has paid off!

In the last two weeks I’ve doubled the income I was earning on my blogs through Adsense and by adding Chitika to some of my sites I’ve added a new great source of income.

Now for the big news.

Yesterday evening I started uploaded the pages of my HTML website that I’d been working on. I’d updated the Google Adsense code, changed the colors of the ads slightly and added two more Adsense blocks to each page of that site. I guess you could say that the new ad code and the updated Adsense placements have been up and running on that site for about 24 hours now.

Just those few little changes to the site – things I learned by reading the Adsense Secrets e-book – have more than tripled my income on that one website. In one day!

I can’t wait to see how much I earn on that site next week. I mean, it’s a long weekend in the US so I’m sure site visits and ad impressions are down a little bit …

I’m so excited. Doubled my income on my blogs and at least tripled my income on my very large website. What’s next? I can’t wait to find out.

If you use Adsense on your website or if you’ve been thinking of using it I strongly recommend that you get the Adsense Secrets E-book. Look what I was able to do in just a month (would have been earlier if I’d started tinkering right away).

I would also look into Chitika as well. They’ve just implemented a new premium ad system that higher eCPM than any of their other products. Actually I believe they are implementing some of the premium features into their other products as well so it’s possible that all of their products will have an increase in eCPM now.

I’ve been with Chitika for a couple of years but I never really earned much so I took it off my blogs about a year ago. At the beginning of the month I decided to give it another try and I can tell you that it’s already my third highest affiliate earner. Kontera and Glam are pretty much tied for second place.

Unless your totally opposed to ads on your blogs or websites it’s worth trying some of these programs. Tinker with ad placement and the colors of the ads themselves and see what works best. Oh and check out that ebook that made all the difference for me!

Free or premium business cards and other print products 25% off with promotional code

May 5, 2008 by Tricia

A few days ago I was introduced to a site where you can purchase quality custom-printed products such as business cards, letterhead, postcards, personal and greeting cards, checks, envelopes, labels and more.

The site is called GigglePrint and as you can see it has a long list of products that would come in handy for everyone from a small business owner, an entrepreneur or to a person who simply wants personalized stationary to use for the family newsletter.

GigglePrint would have come in really handy for me when I had my own small business. I used to be a trade jeweler and naturally I needed items such as business cards to promote my business. I also needed a variety of rubber stamps for my invoices. Did I mention that you can have rubber stamps made at Giggleprint?

Not only does GigglePrint offer a selection of pre-designed premium business cards, stationary, note cards, invitations, announcements, gift tags and other accessories, but you can also choose to custom design any of these items simply by uploading an image to the site to be used on the product of your choice.

Items such as their premium business cards start off at the price of 250 cards for $19.99.

GigglePrint also has a selection of free products. You can create and customize free business cards, free personal checks and free business checks. What better way to try out a service than to start out with free products and then perhaps select one of their high quality premium items on your next order?

Considering that I’m pretty much a full time blogger these days and I’d also like to promote my photography I picked out one of their free business card designs and began creating a card for one of my sites.

Unfortunately I soon discovered that GigglePrint only delivers to locations within the United States. Hopefully they’ll think about expanding their delivery locations to areas within North America such as Canada as I’m sure they would gain a number of new customers.

If I had been able to order my free business cards I would have only had to pay for shipping.

The site is easy to use. Just navigate through their product menu to find the item your interested in and then follow the directions in order to customize your business card, check, stationary or other product. You can choose the type of font you’d like to use on many of the premium products and as I said before you can personalize their products by adding your business logo, a digital photo or another type of image to your custom item.

If you’re interested in promoting your business or need personalized stationary, letterhead or even invitations take a moment to visit the site. I’d love to hear if you liked the selection and if you found it easy to customize the item you decided to order.

Oh and right now GigglePrint is having a special. If you use this source code GPWF80 when you make an order you’ll get 25% off the price! That 25% off is for all products on the site. Sounds like a great deal to me!

Double or triple your Adsense Earnings with Adsense Secrets 4.0

April 25, 2008 by Tricia

Normally I don’t write posts quite like this, but I’m excited about this product and I hope that you will be too! Read on to see why I’m so excited.

About a week ago Adsense Guru, Joel Comm, came out with the fourth edition of his best selling e-book Adsense Secrets.

The last edition of this best seller was in 2006 and if you’ve been following and or using Adsense on your sites you know that they’ve introduced a lot of changes since that time. Adsense Secrets 4.0 has been updated with all the changes up to early 2008.

Normally Joel sells this e-book for $97 – most feel it’s worth much more than that of course as many have said that once they started implementing some of the suggestions from his book their Adsense earnings doubled, tripled and more.

Joel has been increasing successful with his own sites since 2004 and has been happy to share what he’s learned. He’s been thanked many times over in the last four years for the knowledge he’s passed on and he wants to do something special to say thank you to his followers and those new to his products.

For a limited time, Joel is offering AdSense Secrets v4.0 to you for just $9.95!

This book is the definitive guide to making money with AdSense and it is the only book you ever need to master AdSense. Joel regularly earns $500/day or more in passive Adsense income and there’s no reason why you can’t as well.

I’m not sure how long Joel will generously be offering this Adsense Secrets e-book for the low price of $9.95 – so don’t hesitate for too long!

I went to his site and instantly downloaded my copy a few days ago. I do ok with Adsense – I certainly use it on all of my sites, but I know I could do better.

I haven’t had a lot of spare time to go over the whole book, but I already made one or two changes to my sites Adsense wise and I’ve seen a slight improvement in earnings. Over the weekend I’ll be implementing more of Joel’s suggestions and I hope to at least see my Adsense earnings double. Certainly the changes that I’ve already made will pay for the e-book!

One thing I must tell you is that when Joel introduced is updated Adsense Secrets 4.0 last week there was a bit of a glitch in how things were set up. You see, his sales page is long and along with selling visitors his Adsense Secrets for $9.95 purchases were also asked to opt into a monthly newsletter called The Top 1% Report. The monthly cost of this newsletter is $29.95 and when you opt in you’ll get your first issue along with a Free Bonus CD filled with more secrets absolutely free.

Most people didn’t notice the opt in earlier in the week and if they might be surprised when they get a bill of $29.95 a month from now on their credit card.

Don’t worry … he’s changed things around. He makes it clear now. When you get to the end of his sales pitch page you have two options.

The first option is for the Adsense Secrets 4.0 e-book for $9.95 and the first month of his newsletter free (plus free bonus CD). It says:

“I understand that I will have an opportunity to read and enjoy my free issue before you bill me $29.95 for the next issue, and that I can easily reach you to cancel at any time! “

As it says in the offer you can get your free stuff and then decide to opt out without ever paying more than just the $9.95 for the e-book.

The second option is for Adsense Secrets 4.0 and nothing more.

You can select whichever one you prefer and then proceed to the checkout.

When I purchased my copy of the e-book I knew about this controversy. He hadn’t changed the links yet to make the options obvious but there was still a way to opt out at the checkout.

I decided to get the free Top 1% Newsletter and free bonus CD and then decide once I receive them whether to opt out and not be billed a monthly fee for further newsletters.

In future updates as to how my implementation of Adsense Secrets I’ll let you know how good the newsletter is and whether I decided to continue to receive it or not.

Promoting your site in the real world

March 7, 2008 by Tricia

I’ve been trying to think of a way to promote my sites when I’m not online.

Last November when I went to the Vegas blogging conventions a lot of people had made up business cards and some had even made up created little gifts to hand out with their logo and site address on them.

I’d thought of making up some cards before I went but honestly I was feeling so sick as I began to prepare for my trip that I just didn’t get around to it.

I’ve been thinking of making up some logo pens or something that I could hand out. Business cards too of course, but I think pens are good too because everyone needs a pen and if the pen them happen to be using has your logo and site address on it they might remember to visit your site right?

Have you come up with any cool ideas to promote your site offline?
