Ang Konti ng Pera Sa Internet | Few Money on The Internet LOL!
It's nearly the end of the first quarter of this year and I can say that I only made little money online this part of the year with this blog. The PR of this blog increased to PR4, as expected after a few optimization and link building. Last year I nearly made it big time with this blog. I was making decent money off it and ready to rake in some more when content scrapers and other spam sites made me their favorite target. This site is now penalized by the search engines particularly, the Big G. The earnings went on a nose dive and hit the ground head first. I was devastated. But, it's okay since I know that time will heal the wounds of this ugly blog as long as I continue to work on it. I now have an idea what I've done wrong on this one. And that was over optimization. Yes, it just so happen that I over optimized this blog and with that it became prone not only to penalty but to those content thieves (scrapers) that syndicates over optimized pages. Webmasters must also consider the functionality of their site/blog. Must try to be user friendly and not just focus on optimizing for the search engines. So expect to see some changes (again) on this blog. Maybe I'll start it with putting some nice navigation links. =)

Transferring Friendster Blog to Blogger Blog.
Let us talk about transferring friendster blog to blogger blog. Okay, say you are blogging in friendster blog for sometime now then you found out that you can make money from blogging but you just can't monetize your friendster blog because friendster won't allow you to do so. Then you discovered Blogger.com and learned that you can make money from it. You smile and think that you you will be making money. But, you just can't leave your blog posts in your friendster blog. They are beautiful and many had commented on it. Your articles there were great, wonderful. Okay, just copy and paste it to your new blogger blog.. Wait! Doing the copying and pasting content from a blog to another blog is not a search engine friendly deed.
Why not friendly?
When content or articles were copied and pasted to another web page or blog it becomes a duplicate content (obviously). Big G hates duplicate content and they will label your blog as splog or spam blog. If you want to be a search engine friendly, you should write original, create original and upload original.
So what should you do with your old Friendster blog?
You can't just burn it like the old love letters of your ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. That good old friendster blog can still serve and work together with your new blog by linking them. Put links in your fs blog that points to your new blogger blog. Voila! Backlink! Think of this. Your blog in friendster is older than your new blog. Links from older blogs are good. By the way, the new friendster blog is now powered by wordpress- a search engine friendly platform. So, don't just delete your old posts. You should even update it once in a while.
I hope this article about transferring friendster blog to blogger blog helps.
Cheers!

Should I blog about Marian Rivera and Angel Locsin?
From the time of this writing, the keyword Marian Rivera and Angel Locsin has some nine hundred thousand plus results in the Big G. The search volume for these two lovely ladies, Angel and Marian, are quite consistent in the past 30 days from the time of this writing. The top position for the keyword Marian Rivera is the profiles.friendster.com/7848744 and for Angel Locsin is angellocsin.org.
Now, let us look at their pictures below.
Below are the Marian Rivera Photos as seen in the top of search engines results page:

And these are the Angel Locsin Photos as seen in the search results of SEs:

These two subjects are, i think, interesting to many. It's a good subject to blog about. Marami ang interesado sa kanila kaya makakaasa ka na marami ang nagse-search sa kanila sa internet.
Though I hate to blog about show business, I must do this for the sake of optimization. I should blog about Marian Rivera, Angel Locsin and stuffs that are connected to them like the alleged scandal of angel locsin and the nagtaray scandal of marian rivera.
So, there it goes. I just blogged about Marian Rivera and Angel Locsin.

Videos of Hayden Kho, Katrina Halili, Maricar Reyes part 1 and part 2 are ambushed keywords.
Whoa! The internet traffic that these issues of video scandals of Hayden Kho, Katrina Halili, Maricar Reyes (part 1 and part 2) are slowly fading out now. Could this mean that everyone has got a copy now? LOL. Hey! wait a minute. There still no Ruffa Mae Quinto and Hayden Kho video showing up and also the Dr. Vicki Belo video with Hayden is still a no show. Well, what the heck! This is not a scandal site. I only posted those entries in this blog for the sake of traffic and making money online.. Okay. I also wanted to see the videos (and I did^^) and I thought that if I post an entry regarding the issue, someone will post a link to the scandal videos in the comments section. I was right. Hehe.
Lessons are learned these past few days. I am talking about the video scandal days. It has been a good time to do some experiments and other SEO (search engine optimization) techniques. But, somehow I feel guilty for taking advantage of the issue. People that are involved in the scandals were hurt. But, I know I made the right choice and that is to take part of the large traffic pie for blogging's sake. I know that most of my readers here are beginner bloggers (even more beginner than me^^) and I want them to observe what I did. What I did with the "scandal" issue this past few days is called an "ambush" or "Hi-jack". In this technique, you have to be vigilant, observant and alert of what is happening around us. Keep your eyes open and don't even sleep (just kidding). When something goes hot or is bound to be hot, you "ambush" it quickly. Always strike whilst the iron is freaking hot. Write an article about it. Blog about it and optimize it to get your article indexed while the competition is still low- the time when getting index in the serps is easier. You only need fewer backlinks to get indexed in the search engines. And don't forget to fill your article enough keyword density. Only enough keywords so you won't look spammy to the eye of the crawlers.
That's it for now.
Observe more and learn more.
There is another lesson in these scandal videos of Hayden Kho, Katrina Halili, Maricar Reyes (part 1, part 2). That is: do not upload such videos to the internet to avoid scandal.

Can I Change My Blogspot URL? Should I? Why? Why not?
You can always change your Blogspot blog URL by going to your blog's settings then to Publishing and from there you will be able to change the address of your blog, but however, you cannot change the .blogspot in it unless you host it in your own domain name like Carl Ocab and others did.
What would happen if you don't put your keyword in the URL of your blog?
Let's put it this way, for example, your keyword is "food" and the address/URL of your blog is http://ready2cook.blogspot.com and the title is "Everyday Cooking". And, of course, your blog posts contains your keyword 'food'. It is very obvious that your keyword which is "food" is not present in the URL neither in the title of your blog. It is true that having your keyword in the URL and title of your blog is a plus in terms of optimizing for the search engine but, in the example above you will see that the words used in the URL title contain words that are relevant to your keyword: "food". What do you do with the 'food"? You cook it, right. What do you have with everyday cooking? Tires? Of course, not. You don't cook tires everyday, you can't eat it. It's rubber. You cook food. You get it? Hope you understand what I am trying to say here. G___gle is improving its algorithm everyday and it is bound to being close to perfection. That means he is looking not just at the keyword density of a blog or website but also at the relevance of every word in the blog to a certain keyword. But, still, having your keyword in the URL and blog title is a plus if you will be blogging for just one certain niche.
Now, let us look at Carl Ocab's site. His URL is carlocab.com, but his niche is 'make money online'. It is very obvious that the words make, money and online is no way connected nor relevant to the words carlocab. I don't know much about Carl Ocab, but as far as I know, he's been blogging for about 2 to 3 years now and he made it to the top of search engines in the MMO niche with his catchy title "make money online with a 13 year old boy at home". It's not only Mr. Ocab here that has their name on their URL. Many bloggers changed the name of their URL and put their name in it. Perhaps, to build identity. But, the question is: if having your keyword in the URL and title of your blog is a plus, why are these people changing their URL to their own name? That is because the search engines are bound to be close to perfection as I mentioned earlier. These SEs are improving. They now analyze websites differently. If you are not a search engine friendly site, you will be outcast. If you optimize really good, they will suspect you for being a spam blog. Search Engines will label you as robot when you get too close to perfection like having perfect keyword density. Having your name or some words that is no way relevant to to what you blog in your URL makes you less spammy. That makes you more credible and chances are everything you write in your blog has bigger chances to getting indexed in the SERPs.
Hope I made it clear enough despite of my usual gramatical errors. hehe. Still, I must tell you that what I just told you is not a fool proof solution to get indexed in the serps. It is only based on my observations and experiments. I suggest you do your own experiments and observation and perhaps share what you will learn.
In my next post I will answer the rest of Xian's questions about blogging. I'm a little short of time. Got to go.
Cheers!
