Megaglobe to offer webmaster reward program

November 15, 2006 by Tricia

In an earlier post I told you that a new search engine is set to launch in the very near future. The engine will go by the name Megaglobe – International Search Engine.

Well in some of the press releases that I’d read earlier it was alluded to the fact that Megaglobe was not only set to become a major country specific search engine available in over 30 languages if memory serves me correctly, but that it had also developed a new anti-click fraud algorithm which lead me to believe that it would be offering some form of ad or pay per click type of service.

I was right. Megaglobe with be offering a high commission to those that will display ads on their sites. In fact, unlike some of the other programs out there the press release that I’m reading makes it sound like they are discussing Adsense and yahoo ads without mentioning them by name – Megaglobe will share revenue generated from advertising keywords with webmasters more fairly, and as a result will show that they are recognizing the importance search engines place on their partnership with webmasters.

The press release that in which I got this information was written in June and it stated that Megaglobe was set to launch in August. It is now November so they must have had some delays, so I would assume that the launch of megaglobe is imminent.

If you are a webmaster and you want to earn some money with this new company bookmark the link above and check it regularly so you can get in at the beginning. Plus- you can submit your sites to be crawled by the Megaglobe spiders now too if you’d like.

Amazing site stats and a way to make money too

November 14, 2006 by Tricia

A few days ago I signed up at Performancing. Do you see the performancing logo in the left sidebar? Well, if I’m lucky performancing will eventually get me a few advertisers to fill that space. The Performancing publishers program is rather young so it might take some time to sell the ad space, but that’s ok, I’m willing to wait.

You might have heard of Performancing before? They have a program called Performancing Metrics, which I took advantage of and put on all my sites. Now I have very accurate easy to access and use site stats. I see who my top 5, 10 or 50 referrers were, top posts, top comments or comment summaries, and if I had adsense on here I’d be able to see how many clicks took place each day. I can also view a lot of stats about my visitors from IP addresses, to Countries they’ve come from, the browsers they use and the screen resolution they have their computer display set at.

I can tell you that more than 50% of the visitors to this site have been using one of three versions of firefox, which means that at least this week firefox may be taking the lead in popular browser usage over internet explorer.

My friend, Fab might be jealous of my site now. He’s been trying to break into the Chinese market and get more visitors from China to his site. Well for some reason I’ve always had a lot of visitors from all of the Asian countries, and I can say, that after looking at the first 24 hours worth of stats I’ve had 5 visitors from Singapore, 2 from Hong Kong and one from China. So Fab just ask and I’ll teach you my tricks on getting visitors from China, ok?

Pexagon Store-It Thumb Drives

November 13, 2006 by Tricia

Alright I know what I want for Christmas, it will go perfectly with my laptop. I bet a few of you might want this too. What is it that I want? Well it’s a USB flash drive. The flash drives even come personalized with your name or business name laser engraved on them

You could use them to store files or projects that you are working on at the office and bring them home with you to work on if you are unlucky enough to have to bring work home from the office, or your child could use one to store his homework on and bring it back and forth from school to home as he or she completes their school work. Store photos or music easily as well. The possibilities are endless.

The flash drives are rather small, and come in 5 different colors. You can select a flash USB storage drive that is 512MB, 1GB, 2GB or 4GB. Pexagon Tech currently has a special on the 1GB Thumb Drive (any color) for $20.99 with free laser engraving, and the 2GB Thumb Drive (any color) for $38.99 with free laser engraving.

If anyone is thinking of getting me a present I’d love one of these!

Photography corner

November 13, 2006 by Tricia

I think most of you know that I’ve really become quite enthused by photography, particularly in the last few months with the start of my own photoblog Breath Of Life Photography. Right? As you can’t miss all my photo’s in the posts each week. LOL

Well, if you are interested in photography- as I am- and would like to learn more about different techniques or just simply make connections with other photographers and enthusiasts, you might be interested in peeking at the photography resources over at Photography Corner.

I just joined the photography corner forums and I’m amazed at how many different topics they have. You can talk with others on the forums from everything about general photography to discussing equipment, get feedback on your site or photos, enter photo contests and even go through photography tutorials.

The resource area looks good too- again there are tutorials, a section with photography related articles, and product articles. Plus don’t miss the photo galleries that they have just started.

If I go missing you might be able to find me in the Photography corner forums. I think I’m going to hang out over there for a while. See Ya!

Update on our sick cable

November 10, 2006 by Tricia

I’m very pleased to say that for the last two days we’ve been getting a good signal on our TV hurray!!!

I really don’t watch all that much TV – even though at times it might seem like it since I talk about my favorite shows every now and then. I guess I probably end up watching more TV in the autumn when all the new shows come out. Some that end up being canceled and others that end up being moved around to different days if they make the first few crucial months.

Even though I don’t watch much TV it’s important to me that it be working when I need it to work. I have chronic pain due to my crohn’s disease and some times it really gives me a good wallop and I can’t do anything but lie on the couch or in bed. It’s for those times that I need the TV and the signal to be working.

Does anyone else have a cable subscription and TV for reasons other than your own entertainment? ie Entertain the kiddies? Hubby? Background noise while you’re working?
