At last we reach the final Part of Blog and Website Traffic article.

1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all of the techniques I’ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you do everything above you may bring in readers but they won’t stay or bother to come back. Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

I’ve started to implement Yaro’s advice on “Pillars”. I’ve already noticed an increase in traffic and income as a result. Starting from 3,000,000 on Alexa Rankings with a page rank of 0, I’m down to 445,600 and a page Rank of 3. All just by following the tips written in Yaro’s ebook Blogging Profit Blueprint.

The complete article is written by Yaro Starak, a professional blogger who makes over $5000 USD per month from his blog, has just launched a mentoring program for people who want to earn a full time income from blogging part time. The program is less than $100 a month to become a member and you get direct access to your own blog mentor, plus all kinds of audios, vidoes and e-lessons to help you make money from your own blog.

You can read more about the program here:

It’s called Blog Mastermind and I expect there will be a lot of people interested in the program because so many people
like the idea of making money from blogs.

Another person who is an expert at traffic building is Alving Phang. One of his method building traffic is from Web 2.0 Social sites.  For more info, follow the link below:

If you read this post, that means that you are reading an entry I made from my new Nokia N95 8GB smartphone.

I’ve just activate 3G (free activation for maxis/hotlink subscribers) this afternoon and so I thought I’d tried surfing the web to get that nokia experince.

I’m surfing the web using Opera’s mobile browser which you can download for free. Quite convineint. When writing web addresses or inserting text, Opera mini switches to text mode automatically from landscape display mode to potrait.

Hold on for a while… I just received an sms…

While writing this entry, I’m receiving sms’s and listening to background music at the same time. Talk about multi tasking. I wonder what else I can do with the Nokia N95 8GB smart cellphone.

Wait a sec, got another sms…

……

Sorry about that… One thing more about this cellphone. With an extra 90Mb of free RAM, I can open nearly all the main application at once. Mp3, video player, web browser, gallery including n-gage game platform. Did I tell you you can play n-gage games on this cellphone?

Get back to you guys later. I want to enjoy the moment.

P.s tomorrow will be the last and final part of the ten part articles. So stay tune.
P.s.s. How about getting a cellphone for christmas for your love ones to keep in touch.

I’m the proud owner of the new N95 8GB and the first person to buy it here in my local town. (Thats what the shopkeeper told me, and only 2 are available for the first month :D) This is the first cellphone that I brought which cost me more than RM2k, around RM2800 (about USD800~900). Before this I had with me for nearly 7 years, the Nokia 3315, a monotone display with dull ringtones. At that time it was considered high tech with no antennas. Price tag.. RM500 ( now you can get it for RM50).

Well, It was about time I change to a new cellphone since the previous cellphone is outdated even though it’s still functional but I was envious watching people showing off their camera phones, 3g phones, mp3/mp4 and all those stuff. So I said to myself, it’s payback time.

Before buying a new cellphone, I had to search for the “one” that satisfy my taste, sleek and high tech. Thought of getting a Samsung or a Sony-Erricson but I wasn’t familiar with it. Motorola??.. Naah.. Not interested. You can say I’m a die hard fan of Nokia Cellphones. I was hoping to get an N800 or N810, but unfortunately is not available for the Malaysian Market. Besides that, it’s not a cellphone but more to an Internet Tablet PC.

I was aiming for N95 but battery issues change my mind from buying one. Next up my list was the N80 Internet edition, but that was out of stock. Same goes for N93i, also out of stock. How bout 5series or Eseries?… Doesn’t suits my taste. Then I found out that N95 8GB was out.

It’s a complete package. A Cellphone, Mp3/Mp4 player, Digital camera and Video Recorder, Navigator, Internet Browser with WLAN connection. What more can you ask for.

I thought that it will enter the Malaysian market next year, but I was wrong. I was window shopping at a nearby shopping mall. Just wondering around, walking from one lot to another. I was just about to pass a cellphone store when something black in color caught my eyes. I said to myself, it look familiar. So I went near to have a closer look. My heart was pounding as I get closer to the black box displayed inside a glass shelf.

Yataaaaa…!!!! It’s here already, Just after 3 days watching N95 8Gb Smartphone reviews on youtube.

I brought the phone the next day. I was so thrilled and the happiest person on earth…
