Twitter: Users & Traffic

Twitter seems to be the next big revolution. I opened my twitter account recently this year to keep updated friends and family on my online endeavours. A few more fans have been so kind as to follow me in my efforts.

To set up a twitter account is as basic as "abc", literally in a couple of minutes everything is set up and you are ready to start sending your first tweets. What is a tweet? A tweet is a short online message of 140 characters that answers the question “What are you doing now?” As idle idea as it may seem Twitter has now over 6 million users even president Barack Obama seems to be a twitter advocate with over 539,000 followers.

Lately some big companies start to recognise the marketing potential of twitter. Could you believe that the times of most active traffic in Twitter seem to be working hours? That is food for thought!

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind

The task these days is keeping myself motivated and still on track which is proving to be quite a challenge but at least, I am keeping on track.

I have recently put my hands on this book, a real winner, if you need motivation, this book will cover your needs and more. T. Harv Eker examines the roots of success and failure, the rich and the poor, those roots are situated in a place as deep as our own mind, there, in your thoughts is where your success starts. Do you see challenges in life as opportunities or as obstacles?, do you play in life to win, or are you the kind of person that is happy with “not to lose”? Do you think you are the author of your life or a victim? Do you create your life or life just happens to you?

Those are the kind of questions that differentiate a rich person from a poor. T. Harv Eker says: “Rich people make their money work hard for them. Poor people work hard for their money” The book is full of small pearls of wisdom together with very personal advice to see you from where you are to where you want to be.
And…Who is T. Harv Eker? Well, the guy actually has certain authority to talk about millionaire mind; he took a $2.000 credit card loan and opened a fitness centre which he turned into a chain of 10 stores in 2 years and a half and ended up selling it for over $1.5 million.

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind is the book that will push you into action. If you have missed it I can really recommend it. You will not be able to stop reading until you get to the last page. Guaranteed!

Visualization tool from The Secret

I have finally finished watching my “pending part” of the film. What a great film, it is just that nice positive sensation that you feel after you finish watching it. I was just checking in youtube today and I found this nice video. If you liked the film, now the team from The Secret has created a visualization tool that you can download for free and you can use every day "The Secret to you". You can go to their website http://thesecret.tv/secret-to-you

Meanwhile, just turn up your speakers and enjoy.

The Secret to riches

This weekend I decided to watch, at last a film I have waited long to watch, although I haven’t managed to watch the whole movie, it has felt really inspirational. I have still pending the last part of the film but I hope to finish it this week.

“The Secret” is such an acclaimed and well known movie, although it is actually a series of interviews about what attracts riches and success to your life to have everything you ever dreamt of. It’s about the universal law of attraction, a secret known to many successful people and how they used it in their lives to reach their goals. A really nice film, if you need something uplifting, this is definitely a good one.

Adgitize, alternative to Google Adsense


This is my last discovery which I have been trying for a few days now and so far so good. You place Adgitize adverts in your website and they pay you for it.

Well, actually no, it is not that simple, it gets even better. The network pays you just for displaying the adverts in your website; if visitors don’t click you get paid, if visitors click on them you get paid more. When you become part of this network everything becomes a win-win situation. They even pay you to get involved in their community, to visit other blogs inside the network.

The network sends visitors to your page. I have seen my number of visits increased since the few days I have been part of their network. What is more they even pay you to blog. This is not similar to “pay-per-post”, nobody asks for any review of any product or website. You just submit your rss feed to the network and when their feed spiders crawl your blog if you have a new post? You get paid.

Everyone knows that blog that doesn’t get updated frequently loses its visitors. No visitors equal no clicks on adverts and therefore no visits to the advertised companies either. Adgitize response is a clever one; they give a nice incentive to bloggers to keep updating their blogs. In this way everyone wins, bloggers are happy, advertisers are happy, Adgitize is happy.

Adgitize is free and easy to sign up, you can choose the number of adverts you display, the size and the place where they will go on your website. As easy as that, you get the code you add it to your blog.

You can check day by day the reports easily accessible to see how much money you have accumulated in the day, in previous days or in the month.

Even the minimum payment is an advantage. Set up at just $10 by Paypal, Adgitize is a serious contender to Adsense. I find difficult to find something I don’t like from Adgitize. In fact, until now, I haven’t found anything yet.

Should you have any problems, contact their support team through their website and they will reply straight to you. Personally, I have found them quick and friendly.
