Don’t be in a hurry!

dess

No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start

The saying “Patience is a virtue” is always right. We shouldn’t rush in looking for someone who will love us. We just have to wait for the right person to come. Every girl is dreaming of a prince charming, a soul mate, and a perfect man. Just like what I did when I was a little girl. I’ve always been imagining who could that be, what would he look like, what could be the perfect moment. I always have been in a hurry to meet him. I’ve been to several relationships but then it turned out to be a failure. That made me realize that we can’t get what we want in an instant. If we’re looking for a right relationship, and for a right man, we just have to sit back, relax, and be ready to be a better person to him. There are things that meant to happen. If you’ve been to failed relationships, don’t give up! Each and every one of us has our own destiny. Just be PATIENT enough to wait for the right person. If you know you’ve already met him, then spend the most loving days of your life with him. Don’t let him slip away in your arms. Be the queen of his castle! :)

Squidoo: Next Big thing in SEO

dess

Internet Marketers or SEO Specialists had been using this powerful tool to rank their websites in search engines. What is Squidoo? It is a website where you can create lenses. Others use this for monetizing purposes, and some are for marketing strategy. People who create lenses are often times called “lensmasters”.
How can Squidoo be a part of SEO strategy? Well, in squidoo you can place the link of your website on your lenses. And you can write a snippet of your article and link it in your site. The advantage of using Squidoo is that, it is approved and recognized by search engines, specifically Google. The only way to be known in Squidoo, your lens must be really unique, provides helpful information to people, and it has fresh contents.Find lenses that are relevant to yours, and give out a useful comment, you may insert a link of your lens/website on the comment field. Just make sure that it is not sound like spammy. If your lens got the highest rank for a certain topic, I bet your website is also rank in Google. Gain more visits, and let other lens masters rate your lens. The good news about Squidoo is that, it pays you off. But they will only pay you if you’ve got a higher rank, bunch of visits from other lens masters, and most importantly your lens is informative and useful.

Terms and Definitions to help you understand more on this topic:

Lense – A mini website or a page that contains a person’s thoughts, ideas and topics.

Top 10 Link Building Strategies

dess

1. Participate in Forums. Use your keyword as signature links in all forums that you have. Don’t over use your keyword, you may just insert it in a sentence or phrase. Be active.

2. Comment on Blogs. Try to find other blogs that relevant to yours and provide quality comments. Make sure that the blogs don’t have “no follow” attribute. It may not give you traffic. Post comments that link back to your blog.

3. Do some Link Exchange. This is one of a linking building strategy that is really effective. Look for websites or blogs and try to link with them. This won’t be a pain in the ass if you link to sites that are relevant to yours. It’s always important to link with relevant sites to avoid “spammy” back links.

4. Post new and fresh contents Write an article for your blog site or website and update it twice a week.

5. Submit articles to Article Directories. This is the most time consuming strategy that you may overcome BUT it’s one of the most effective way of gaining one way links.

6. Submit your site to Web Directories. Research for good web directories and submit your site. Make sure that the category you choose is really relevant to your site so that it may not be disapproved by the editors.

7. Submit to RSS Feed Sites. Get your RSS link and submit it to several RSS feed sites.

8. Ping your site. After updating or adding new stuff on your site, ping it immediately on pinging sites such as Pingoat. The purpose of this is to inform other sites that you have just updated your site.

9. Be active on Social Networks. Look for social networks which are really gaining high traffic such as MySpace, and Facebook. Find other bloggers, website owners, even new friends, and share your thoughts and opinion. I bet you’ll completely gain traffic.

10. Bookmark your blog. Don’t forget to Bookmark or Tag your blog. This would also be very helpful in link building.

How to Deal and Get Over a Break Up

dess

Think of possible causes and the main root of a break up. Would it be a fight, argument, or one of you just fall out of love. Stop and think for awhile. I know you’re in a mourning stage, but you can’t just let your feelings conquer your mind. If you realized that the relationship must have to end, then the best way is to “let go”. Yeah, it’s really hard to do it BUT you always have a choice. There’s always been a bunch of ways to get over a failed relationship. If the break up is unexpected then probably you’re still in “denial stage”. Just accept the fact that it’s finally over. Acceptance can make you feel better. If you feel like crying, then go ahead. Don’t cover up your emotions, just cry to let go of the pain. If you’re a guy, it may not make less of your masculinity if you cry. Yeah, it’s really painful to lose someone who had been part of your life, but just think of the positive part, there’s always a sun that shines after the rain. Think of the negative traits of your ex. What are the things that you dislike about him/her? The things that might turned you off. Don’t ever ever reminisce the romantic moments you’ve had if you’re still on a mourning stage. Always keep a distance with your ex.
