iWork '09

iWork '09, Apple's office productivity suite, is the easiest way to create documents, spreadsheets, and presentations the Mac way. Writing and page layout are easy in Pages. Numbers gives you simple ways to make sense of your data. You'll captivate your audience with new, sophisticated features in Keynote. And iWork is compatible with Microsoft Office, so it's easy to share your work.

Pages '09. You have a beautiful way with words.
Pages is both a streamlined word processor and an easy-to-use page layout tool. It allows you to be a writer one minute and a designer the next, always with a perfect document in the works.

Easy from the start

Your instant design studio.
Even before you start writing, your document looks great. With over 180 Apple-designed templates, a professionally polished resume, brochure, school report, or invitation is waiting for you to make it your own. Use the Template Chooser to find the one you like. Add your own words inside the text placeholders. Use the Media Browser to drop photos from your iPhoto library directly into graphics placeholders. And there you have it: a beautifully designed, professional-quality document made in minutes.




Tables and charts make data instantly more compelling. You can copy and paste charts from Numbers into your document. The data is linked, so when you change the data in your spreadsheet, you can update your chart in Pages with just a click.

Streamlined word processing

Every word counts.
Creating great-looking documents is simple with Pages. At the top of the page, the contextual Format Bar lets you do the basics--formatting text and adjusting images--with just one click. View and choose fonts with the "what you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG) font menu. Change text size and color. Adjust line spacing and paragraph alignment. Apply character and paragraph styles. When you select a photo, shape, or table on the page, the Format Bar displays tools to adjust the images. And while you write, Pages can automatically format lists with bullets or numbers, check your spelling, proofread your document, and generate a table of contents.

Fine-tuning your document is easy, too. You can add headers, footers, footnotes, and bookmarks with a few clicks. Insert section, layout, and page breaks from a pull-down menu. And the word count is visible at the bottom of the page--just click the total to see details including the number of characters, lines, paragraphs, and more. When it comes to word processing, streamlined and smart come standard in Pages.


Advanced writing tools

There's more to the story.
Any word processor can help you type. Pages gives you all the tools you need to write and perfect your writing. Now you can view your document full screen. With one click, clutter disappears so you focus on what you're writing and make changes without distractions. Organize your ideas in Outline mode. Create an outline with multiple levels, expand or collapse topics, and drag and drop to promote or demote items. Mail merge takes your data from Numbers or your contacts from Address Book to create personalized letters, invoices, and faxes. And in Pages, you can insert sophisticated equations into your lab reports with MathType 6 and add professional bibliographies to your research papers using EndNote X2.

When it's time for comments and feedback, change tracking makes collaboration with anyone easier, clearer, and more concise. And it's always easy to find your place. Next to your document, you see thumbnails of all your pages and sections, including changes that have been made. Quickly copy or delete a section. Or drag and drop to move sections around. Scroll through thumbnails to preview your document or enlarge them for a better view.

Powerful page layout

Do-it-yourself design.
Create your own design from a blank canvas--Pages makes page layout easy. Choose fonts and add images, graphics, tables, and 3D charts. Powerful graphics tools let you resize and rotate photos, apply reflections and shadows, add picture frames, and remove backgrounds from images with a simple point and click. You can even control the text: how it looks, how it flows, and how it wraps around images. Move everything around on the free-form canvas until you see the layout you envisioned.

Compatibility and sharing

It's an easy read. In any format.
Pages makes it easy to share your documents with colleagues or friends. You can open Microsoft Word files in Pages and save your Pages documents as Word files. With powerful graphics and formatting tools, it's easy to make Word documents look great in Pages. You can also save your Pages documents as RTF files or plain text or export them as PDF files. With the new email option, send Pages, Word, or PDF documents right from Pages using Mac OS X Mail. Share your work on the Web.

What if you need to share your document, but you aren't sure whether your colleagues use a Mac or PC, iWork or Office? Now you can upload it to iWork.com Public Beta.2 Reviewers receive a unique iWork.com URL where they can view your work, post comments, and download your document in Pages, Microsoft Word, or PDF format.



Numbers '09. Finally, data has its day.
With great-looking templates, easy-to-create formulas, and dynamic tables and charts, spreadsheets suddenly make perfect sense.

Easy from the start

Numbers, uncrunched.
Plan a wedding. Save for retirement. Track your workouts. Keep a baby journal. Spreadsheets can help you organize and plan, and great-looking, Apple-designed templates will help you get started. With the Template Chooser, you can preview over 30 templates to use for home, work, and school. Tables are already made. Formulas have been figured out. Fonts are in place. They're all ready to go. Just find something you like and make it your own.

In Numbers '09, spreadsheets are built on a flexible, free-form canvas. So you can move tables, charts, graphics, and text anywhere you want on the page. As tables resize, objects automatically adjust to fit around them. Create as many tables as you want. Change fonts, sizes, colors, styles, and borders. With graphics tools, alignment guides, and rulers, spreadsheet-making becomes a surprisingly creative endeavor. And suddenly, spreadsheets make more sense.

The Media Browser adds some excitement to your spreadsheet. With a click, you can access your photos from iPhoto, your movies, and your video. The Sheet Navigator lists every table, chart, and sheet in your spreadsheet so you can quickly jump to any part of your project and make changes.

Formulas for everyone

It all adds up beautifully.
Creating formulas may seem complex, but Numbers makes it uncomplicated. Using the intuitive browser, you can choose from over 250 functions (including more than 90 new ones). Tooltips and built-in help provide clear and concise explanations of each variable. You can even use visual placeholders for variables when you create formulas. The new Formula List view shows you every calculation on your spreadsheet at once. And with a few clicks on the Toolbar, you can create tables and charts and add images and graphics. Easily find fonts and format text styles in the Format Bar.

Intelligent tables

Brilliance in every cell.
Numbers is a blank canvas for tables. You can create as many as you want and resize them as needed. The layout of each table is independent, so whatever you do to one table won't affect the others. Move tables anywhere--even to a different sheet--and the calculations remain intact. You can even share content between tables. WIth intuitive tools, Numbers helps you analyze data. Enter data and change values within the cells and use sliders, checkboxes, steppers, and pop-up lists to explore the results. With every change, formulas and charts instantly update and give you a new data scenario.

When there's almost too much data to decipher, Numbers lets you create categories based on information from any column. It automatically generates a summary row for each category. By using just the summary row, you can collapse, expand, and rearrange categories to organize your data any way you want. The new Reorganize button in the toolbar lets you filter by category and gives you other advanced sorting and filtering options.


Impressive charts

Off-the-charts charts.
Transform your data into compelling 2D or 3D bar, line, area, or pie charts. Combine line, column, and area series in a single mixed chart. Create two-axis charts with different value scales. Apply trendlines and error bars. The charts you create in Numbers can be linked to your Pages documents and Keynote presentations.

Compatibility and sharing

It's the universal language.
Numbers makes it easy to share your spreadsheets with colleagues or friends. You can open Microsoft Excel files in Numbers or save your Numbers spreadsheets as Excel files. With powerful graphics and formatting tools, it's easy to make Excel spreadsheets look great in Numbers. You can also export your Numbers spreadsheets as PDF files. Numbers lets you import documents in other common formats as well, including Open Financial Exchange files from Quicken, files from bank or credit card providers, comma-separated-value or tab-delimited files, vCards, and more. Printing spreadsheets in Numbers is surprisingly easy, too. Use the interactive Print view to see how big your spreadsheet will print. Then scale it up or down with a simple slider. With the new email option, send Numbers, Excel, or PDF files right from Numbers using Mac OS X Mail.

Share your work on the web.
If your colleagues need to see your work, but you don't know what format to use, upload your spreadsheet to iWork.com Public Beta1. Reviewers receive a unique iwork.com URL where they can view your spreadsheet, post comments, and download it in Numbers, Excel, or PDF format.


Keynote '09. Crowd pleaser.
Create your presentation in Keynote, and you'll be a hard act to follow. Powerful yet easy-to-use tools and dazzling effects put the show in slideshow.

Easy from the start

It presents beautifully.
Even if you've never used Keynote before, you'll find creating a presentation surprisingly simple. It all starts with an enhanced Theme Chooser that lets you preview an impressive collection of 44 Apple-designed themes. Drag across a theme to skim through its slide designs. Once you've chosen the perfect canvas for your presentation, simply substitute placeholder text and graphics with your own words and images. Thanks to the Slide Navigator, the progress of your presentation and its organization are always in view.

Easy-to-use tools let you add elements such as tables, charts, media, and shapes to your slides. Add a table with a click. Just as easily add a 3D chart that you can animate. With the Media Browser, you can drag and drop photos from your iPhoto or Aperture libraries, movies from your Movies folder, and music from your iTunes library.

Powerful graphics tools

Looking good comes easy.
Make each slide in your presentation look its absolute best, using the powerful graphics tools built into Keynote. Quickly and cleanly remove the background of an image using the Instant Alpha tool. Or mask it within a predrawn shape, such as a circle or a star. With alignment and spacing guides, you can easily find the center of the slide and see if objects are spaced evenly. So anything you add to your slides--graphics, images, text boxes, or shapes--is placed precisely where you want it. If you're adding a flowchart or a diagram to your slide, then you'll appreciate the new connection lines feature. Connection lines between two objects remain anchored, no matter what changes you make. Move the objects around, and the lines move with them.


Animations and effects

Standing ovation highly likely.
With your choice of more than 25 transitions, including 3D transitions, you're sure to keep their eyes riveted to the screen as you move from one slide to the next. Apply the new Magic Move transition and a repeated object, such as your company's logo, automatically changes location, scale, opacity, and rotation across consecutive slides. Add stunning effects.

Flexible ways to present

Your show. Your way.
Keep the pace of your presentation flowing smoothly with the Presenter Display feature. While your presentation appears on the main display for your audience, you can see the current and next slides, your slide notes, a clock, and a timer on a second display. Add Keynote Remote to your iPhone or iPod touch and feel free to roam around the room while you present. Using Wi-Fi, Keynote Remote turns your iPhone or iPod touch into a wireless controller. In landscape view, see the current and next slides. In portrait, see the current slide with your slide notes. Tap to play and swipe to advance, wherever you are in the room.

When you can't be there, the show can still go on. Using the built-in narration tool, Keynote captures your audio voiceover and timing as you step through builds or move from one slide to the next.

Compatibility and sharing

Approved for all audiences.
Keynote gives you a variety of ways to bring your show to the people. You can use it to import presentations created in Microsoft PowerPoint and to create presentations that can easily be saved as PowerPoint files. You can also export your presentation as a QuickTime movie, or a PDF, HTML, or image file; or even directly to YouTube. Keynote does the format conversion for you. Share your work on the web.

When you need to share your presentation, but aren't sure whether your colleagues use a Mac or PC, iWork or Microsoft Office, publish it to iWork.com Public Beta.2 Reviewers receive an email with a unique URL where they can view your presentation's slides, post comments, and download a version ideal for them in Keynote, PowerPoint, or PDF format

Wealthy Affiliate is an online university whose aim is to educate its members in the arena of creating a sustainable and profitable business through internet affiliate marketing. On the whole, Wealthy Affiliate is about providing three factors, which are, relevant knowledge, helpful tools, and constant support. This is what in essence makes it the number one place to learn internet marketing and make money

Knowledge

Having your own webpage has now become more important than ever since the latest Google crackdown, and with Site Rubix it couldn't be easier. Creating profitable landing pages in a matter of minutes, this resource is a god send for individuals with no previous HTML knowledge.

With the support at Wealthy Affiliate you are in a community that truly cares for your future.

But what the are negatives associated with this online university and what is the general consensus. Here are my comments.

In my time at Wealthy Affiliate, the worst thing I encountered was when a member embellished their success to the new sign-ups so that they would buy his product out of fear of failing. Luckily though, compared to other forums, this spamming is kept to an absolute minimum, and everyone is allowed to prosper in peace. In fact, the spammer was quickly evicted and the forum is now just widely regarded as the best in the business

Other minor things include members complaining about lack of sales. If you thought that joining Wealthy Affiliate entitles you hundreds of dollars a day then you would be quite wrong. A sustainable income online will only be achieved if you implement their teachings and only then will you reap the admittedly amazing rewards.

Google Home Business Kit Revealed and Reviewed

Many of you who surf the web on a daily basis have probably come across many advertisements that reference how you can make money online using the power of Google. Many of you probably are very skeptical of these programs. Indeed, these types of programs seem to flourish during times of economic hardship. Being that our country and its people are going through some major economic hardships, I expect to see many more of these advertisements.

So what is the Google Home Business Kit? Well to be frank, its a CD based tutorial program that teaches one how to make money using Google. The CD covers 2 of Google's main programs: Google AdSense and Google AdWords. The CD starts out explaining to the user the Google AdSense program. To give you a synopsis, the Google AdSense program is a program started by Google back in 2002/2003 that allowed webmasters to serve advertisements on their websites. Google would read your site and serve ads to your site based on content written on your site. The incentive for the webmaster to participate in the Google AdSense program was that they would get a cut of the profits Google was receiving from the advertiser each time someone clicked on the advertisers ads. The Google Home Business Kit teaches the user how to enroll in the Google AdSense program and place specialized code on their website that would allow Google to serve ads to the site.

The second portion of the CD discusses the Google AdWords program. This program is designed with the advertiser in mind. Instead of passively getting ads placed on your website, like in the AdSense program, the AdWords program allowed you to place ads on either the Google search engine or on the Google content network (i.e. the same sites that you as a webmaster was serving ads from). As an advertiser, your job is to sell a product to the user. The Google Home Business Kit, goes through the process you would need to follow in order to successfully enroll in the Google AdWords program, pick a product to sell, and sell that product on the Google AdWords network.

All and all, the Google Home Business Kit delivers what it promises. It gives the user a thorough education about how to promote online using Google as a conduit. I would warn you however, that this process does take time and money to get started. Its not a get rich quick process. If you are looking to get rich quick then this program is not for you, however, if you are interested in the program I would definitely recommend it.

For more information about this program, check out this blog post: Google Home Business Kit.

The Clickbank Code Review

I am prompted to write this Clickbank Code Review by the amazing results that use of the blueprint brought to my own business in an extremely short period of time. While I was skeptical about the ability of the product to turn my business around, I must admit that my pessimistic skepticism was totally unfounded as the product delivered great results.

Perhaps one of the most powerful tools of the Clickbank Code is the clarity with which the instructions are presented. The text information is complemented by 5 hours of video presentation that guide you on the exact steps you need to follow and, by simply copying the video instructions, you are on your way to a reliable online income.

Guidance on Choosing Profitable Products

Clickbank Code offers comprehensive details on the steps you need to follow to benefit from affiliate marketing. You are guided on how to choose products that will guarantee you a profit. One feature I found unique motivating me to write this Clickbank Code Review is the program's help in choice of products to sell.

To help you select the products to market, there is a mathematical formula that helps you choose the most profitable products so that you do not end up saddling yourself with non-moving and unprofitable products.

In addition to product choice, this product goes a step further and shows you strategies on developing online traffic. There is detailed information on the exact steps you need to take to not only drive traffic to your site but also how to turn that traffic into customers.

To save your time and at the same time while improving the ability of your site to generate continuous revenue, the Clickbank Code teaches you how to semi-automate your business.

Once this is done, your business runs on autopilot so that even when you are sleeping or pursuing your other interests, your money-generation potential is never curtailed. It is for this reason that I wrote this Clickbank Code Review to recommend it to those trying to make an extra income from working online.

The Basics of Web Hosting

Web hosting services offer individuals or businesses the opportunity to have their own websites on the World Wide Web. With people spending more and more time online now than ever before, websites have become increasingly important. Free web hosting services allow anyone to get started with their website, but paid web hosting services - such as shared hosting and dedicated hosting - are often tailored for business or commercial websites.

Here is a short overview of what people mean by the terms free hosting, and paid hosting such as shared hosting and dedicated hosting.

FREE WEB HOSTING SERVICES

Free hosting allows users to create a website with limited functionality, free of charge. These websites almost always have restrictions on the type or amount of content uploaded, narrow bandwidth, and the service is usually sustained by external advertisements on the website. These websites aim to convert their users into paid customers by lauding the benefits of paid hosting services and offering free trial periods. Free hosting services are suitable for those looking for a small, easy-to-manage personal website, but the increasing popularity of blogs and social networking sites means that free websites are quickly becoming a thing of the past.

PAID WEB HOSTING SERVICES

Paid hosting requires the user to pay monthly or annual fees to have their website hosted on a domain, with most web hosts offering a variety of packages which give the user a choice of web space, bandwidth, and additional or sub-domains. Paid hosting services may also offer the user a choice of a shared server or a dedicated server. Shared web hosting means a number of websites share a single server, and this is usually the most popular and affordable option, ideal for small businesses or commercial endeavors. Dedicated web hosting means an entire server is dedicated to your website, and whilst this is the most expensive option, these will have the largest web space and widest bandwidth.

MINI GLOSSARY

Server - a combination of hardware and software which provides web hosting for clients.

Bandwidth - this measures data transfer from your website to visiting browsers, otherwise known as 'monthly data transfer'. The wider the bandwidth, the more visits a website can accommodate in a given period of time.
Web Space - this is the amount of content (usually measured in megabytes MB or gigabytes GB) that is allowed to be uploaded to the website in a given period of time.

Web Hosting Seleksi Tips For New Web Master

These days lots of people are coming on internet and internet activities has increased manifolds as compared to what it was 5 years ago. Keeping this in mind lots of new websites are coming each day covering different niches and thus making that particular niche more competitive to gain good ranking in search engines. This battle continues and seems to be on its apex but some web gurus are of the view that internet traffic will multiply even further in coming years. For those people who are looking to start their website I have discussed an important step of web host selection in this of my article to clear many unknown terminologies of hosting for novices.

After selecting a domain name which will be your identity on internet you will need a web host to place your website on his server so that it becomes accessible globally through internet. Many web hosting companies are offering their services but in this age of advertisement and cluster of quality web hosting providers, how to decide which company suits you best. Obviously you will have some parameters set in your mind about your website before you go for web hosting selection but some selection criteria are said to be understood which must be focused by a new comer along with his own parameters for hosting.

Hosting is no doubt known as modern day marriage as you have to make your decision very clearly without compromising on any thing especially the price. Some cheap web hosting companies give incentives of price but webmasters have to pay that price later on in the form of low uptime guarantee and poor customer support. Here are the major factors to look for before finalizing web hosting.

Disk space and bandwidth: First and the foremost thing to look for is disk space and bandwidth allowed to your website. You have to decide this depending on your site type. If you are going for a personal website or small business website then you do not need huge Gigs of space and bandwidth but if you are of to a targeted site where traffic will be coming regularly and in huge number then you must go for larger bandwidth.

Uptime Guarantee: Almost all web hosting companies claim to provide 99.9% uptime guarantee but many of these do not fulfill the claims and later on gives some excuses. It is better advised to go for reliable web hosting in terms of uptime guarantee and it can be checked online with many existing customers or from reviews sites.

Customer Support: Before finalizing any web hosting company, you must read different reviews about that company as many websites are offering web hosting reviews. In addition check with the company by asking them different questions through phone or chat. If you are satisfied with customer support only then go with it other wise select some other web host.

Price: Last and surely less important factor should be price. Believe me or not best hosting companies never compromise on their price and always ensure quality services to their clients both in terms of uptime guarantee and server security.

Finally, selection of best web hosting company is not difficult if you have plotted your requirements before checking. Still it will be better to read reviews about different companies from comparison sites.

Why Everyone In Affiliate Marketing Needs An Ad Tracker

You've probably heard a lot of stories about people striking it rich as affiliate marketers and it is certainly true that there is a lot of money to be made in affiliate marketing. However, most people who get involved in the industry don’t end up making a fortune. The people who manage to make a financial success of their affiliate marketing ventures are those who plan ahead and exhibit the commitment and persistence needed to see their business through to success.

You probably hear about how easy it is to get started in affiliate marketing, which is also true. However, the only way to really make a significant amount of money this way is by putting in some time and no small amount of hard work to promote your affiliate products or services. It really doesn’t matter how great a product you may have, you need to get the consumer’s attention if you want to start earning large commissions.

Promotion is the key to affiliate marketing success; your links and banners will just sit there, not even seen let alone clicked unless you put in some effort to make sure that people are coming to your website in the first place. No clicks equals no income when you’re in the affiliate marketing business.

This isn’t to say that you can’t make an income from affiliate marketing which is comparable to or even better than what you’re currently earning working full time. Once you’ve got your business running smoothly, you can even continue making money while you’re asleep, on vacation or doing anything else.

It all starts with a well designed, user-friendly website. You need well written, genuinely informative content that visitors will want to read and that conveys the benefits of the affiliate products or services you’re promoting without hitting them over the head with a hard sell approach. You’ll want to include your banners and text links as well, obviously.

Once you have a website which visitors will want to stick around and explore (and hopefully recommend to friends and family), the next step is to promote your site using a variety of online marketing methods. Forum marketing, newsletters and email marketing efforts, article marketing and of course, what we’re really here to talk about today, Google AdWords and other contextual advertising models.

You can’t just throw up some AdWords ads and hope for the best if you want to make your affiliate marketing business a success. Your ads need to be carefully crafted, monitored and fine tuned for better performance. You need to track the results of your advertising regularly and make adjustments as necessary.

It’s actually even easier to do than it sounds like, especially if you use tracking software to keep an eye on the results your ads are getting. One of the best tracking software packages out there is called simply AffiliateProphet. This is a program which is designed specifically to address the marketing needs of affiliate marketers and is favored by beginners as well as seasoned experts in the affiliate marketing field. If you’re new to the field, you may be wondering exactly what an ad tracker is and what it does. It’s actually rather simple. An ad tracker is software which lets you monitor the click-throughs your advertisements or web pages or referral links receive in detail. There are also services like HyperTracker which can perform ad tracking for you.

An ad tracker is particularly useful to those who are promoting multiple affiliate marketing programs and have a number of different contextual advertising campaigns ongoing at any given time. An ad tracker lets you watch how your campaigns are performing so you can find out how your ads are doing whether these are PPC ads, banner ads or links in email marketing campaigns, forums, article directories or any other sort of online promotional efforts.

In affiliate marketing just as in any other sort of marketing, return on investment is the name of the game. You’d like to keep your marketing budget as small as possible – even if you have some extra money to put towards your marketing efforts, you’d still like to make sure that you’re getting the best possible return for each and every cent you spend. This is why tracking software is so valuable for those persons engaged in affiliate marketing. You can find out exactly how many clicks your ads have received and where – and how many of these clicks led to a purchase (and thus a commission payment for you). This is the kind of information a marketer needs to fine tune their advertising campaigns on the fly to maximize their performance.

Knowing how your ads and your affiliate program in general are performing lets you increase your efforts where they’re doing the most good and dropping them in areas where they’re not getting you results. Tracking software can even help you to determine if a given affiliate program is worth your time and effort to continue or if you’d be better off moving on to another.

Affiliate marketing is a business and it can be a profitable one if you treat it like a business. You need to make your decisions based on solid data and with a results-driven approach. Being able to have all of the important facts at your fingertips can help you avoid sticking with an unsuccessful program for too long or dropping one prematurely when it’s just beginning to build.

Success in affiliate marketing takes the same hard work and marketing efforts as success in any other kind of business does. If you’re not managing to generate as many sales as you’d like, it may not be that the affiliate program itself is no good – you may just need to take a slightly different approach with your advertising. An ad tracker can give you the data you need to adjust your ads to get optimal results and make the most of each and every affiliate program you choose to work with.

Blogging - Can it Make You Money ?

Writing is one of those careers where you could either have a big success or have no success at all. The difficulties of obtaining a publisher to print and sell your book or another publication to print your column can't be overemphasized. Fortunately, this depiction of a writer may already have disappeared, thanks to modern technological advances.

While in years past, writers had to depend on others to earn they can now earn a living from writing by turning their love of writing into a business. Tough as it may sound, this can be quite easy to accomplish with the use of blogs.
Whether you are new to blogging or you are a seasoned blogger, earning money with a blog is something that you can fulfill. Here are some hints and tips to give you a push in the right direction:

1. Google AdSense - You can earn money from Google by using their AdSense service. You need to make your blog in advance then get in touch with Google and apply to be a Publisher. If they sanction your site, you will be able to create code which make AdSense advertisements show on your site. These adverts will be relevant to the subject matter of your pages and you will earn cash when your visitors click on the ads. This will be calculated by Google dependent on the amount that the advertiser paid for the ad slot.

For instance, if you published an article on your blog about internet marketing, then the AdSense ad units would be to do with that subject. You will, however, have to wait for your profit to reach $100, or the equivalent in your currency, before you can get paid.

2. Affiliate programs - a lot of internet businesses offer affiliate programs. You register as an affiliate and when authorised, you get access to various types of advertisements. Some of these, such as links and banners can be applied on your site. When an individual buys through a link on your blog, you earn commission. Some decent large affiliate programs are Amazon, LinkShare and Commission Junction and there are loads of smaller companies that offer affiliate programs also.

3. Sell space on your blog. The disadvantage of AdSense and affiliate programs is that you do not truly have much control of your earnings and the ads that are shown on your blog. If you want to take up ad selling in earnest, you could use BlogAds which is a free database where you can set prices for advertisers to post your blog. Many advertisers seek out blogs that correspond with their products and services and pay for advertising space in the same way as they might pay for space in a newspaper. Your ad space can then be leased for a certain period of time. You would just need to pay 20 percent of your earnings to BlogAd.

4. Put a gift shop on your blog. If your blog attracts lots of visitors every day, then you may profit from selling gifts. Don't think that you have to make them yourself or stock them either because there is a company called CafePress which will do it for you. CafePress will sell mugs, T-shirts and more, all with your own images on them. The selling price is up to you; you just have to pay them the basic price of the products.

Making money from a web site is not as difficult as it seems, but of course like in any other money making venture, you still have to graft at it.

If you want to write a blog to make some money but don't know where to start visit Best Blogging Software for some tips.

Blogging and Blog Content

Is literally unbelievable the number of blogs that are on the Internet since 2001. If you look at a graph or a chart of how many new blogs show up on the Internet each day you will be blown away by the hyperbolic curve. Since so many people are starting blogs, these folks desire information on the topic; it seems they just can't get enough. It is for this reason that those who author articles on blogging typically find that articles in this category are amongst the top "most viewed" articles online.

Over the years I have written nearly 150 of these blogging type articles, and even set up a website with more information for people who wish to read up on blogs. So how do you write articles on blogging anyway? Well first, you must consider the needs and desires of those bloggers. Many of them wish to be heard, they want more followers, more subscribers, and more people commenting. They want to know that what they write or post is being read by large numbers of people.

Perhaps, much of his ego and they want to be recognized by their fellow man, which is as you know one of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. They also have questions about possible widget features, blogging formats, where to get good clip art and duty free pictures which have not been used 1 million times already. They wish to know things like how often should they post, what time of day should they post, and what topics are people interested in?
They wish to know the length of the articles or blog posts, and how to do video blog posts; indeed, all you have to do is ask them and they will tell you what they want. They have an unending number of needs and questions. I hope this information will help you write better articles on blogging, please consider it.

Apple MacBook Pro MC118LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop

FEATURING a precision unibody enclosure crafted from a single block of aluminum, the MacBook Pro is thinner and lighter than its predecessor as well as stronger and more durable. But Apple didn't stop innovating with the body's design. The MacBook Pro also includes a new 15-inch, LED-backlit glass display (instead of an LCD panel) as well as a glass trackpad that doesn't include a button (for larger tracking area) that features Apple's Multi-Touch technology.

This 15-inch MacBook Pro (model MC118LL/A) also now includes Apple's innovative built-in notebook battery for up to 7 hours of wireless productivity on a single charge without adding thickness, weight or cost. Using Adaptive Charging and advanced chemistry first introduced with the 17-inch MacBook Pro the built-in battery delivers up to 1000 recharges before it reaches 80 percent of its original capacity--nearly three times the lifespan of conventional batteries.
Under the hood, the MacBook Pro is powered by a powerful 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor (with 3 MB L2 cache and 1066 MHz front-side bus), which runs applications faster and more efficiently as well as helps to reduce power requirements and save on battery life. And video is powered by the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M integrated graphics processor, which provides an outstanding everyday graphics experience with up to a 5x performance boost.

Other hardware features include a 250 GB hard drive, 4 GB of installed RAM (which can be upgraded to 8 GB), an 8x combo Superdrive (for burning dual-layer DVDs as well as CDs), built-in Gigabit Ethernet for high-speed networking, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate), FireWire 800 port, Mini DisplayPort video output (for DVI and VGA connections), and a Secure Digital card slot for easy access to digital photos and audio stored on SD and MMC memory cards.
It comes pre-loaded with Apple's Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard operating system, and is ready to run the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard operating system. It also comes with the iLife '09 suite of applications, including iPhoto, iMovie, Garageband, and iTunes.
The Unibody MacBook Pro Design

Traditionally notebooks are made from multiple parts. With the MacBook Pro all of those parts with just one part--the breakthrough unibody enclosure. Every MacBook Pro starts its life as a single block of aluminum, which is precisely machined into the basic unibody design. Another pass and the unibody takes shape. Another, and the integrated keyboard emerges. When you pick up a new MacBook Pro, you immediately notice the entire enclosure is thinner and lighter. And it feels strong and durable--perfect for life inside (and outside) your briefcase or backpack.

The standard aluminum electro-static trackpad has been replaced with a new glass Multi-Touch trackpad, which provides 40 percent more tracking area than before. Use two fingers to scroll up and down a page. Pinch to zoom in and out. Rotate an image with your fingertips. Swipe with three fingers to flip through your photo libraries. Swipe with four fingers to show your desktop, view all open windows, or switch applications. The entire trackpad surface is also a button, allowing you to both track and click virtually anywhere on the trackpad. And you can easily enable multiple virtual buttons in software, such as right-clicking.

The keyboard has also been improved, with the rigid aluminum keyboard webbing cut precisely to hold the keys, which are curved to perfectly fit fingers. And it's illuminated, so when you're in low-light settings, such as airplanes or conference rooms, you can always see what you're typing.

The 15-inch display is made of edge-to-edge, uninterrupted glass for a smooth, seamless surface and features LED backlighting for brilliant instant-on performance that uses up to 30 percent less energy than its predecessor. The ultra-thin displays provide crisp images and vivid colors which are ideal for viewing photos and movies
Long-Lasting Battery

The 15-inch MacBook Pro now includes a newly engineered lithium-polymer battery that that lasts up to 7 hours on a single charge thanks to advanced chemistry, intelligent monitoring of the system and battery, and Adaptive Charging technology. The battery is built right into the computer, eliminating the space-consuming mechanisms and housings that standard removable batteries require. This non-removable battery also provides a longer battery lifespan of up to 1000 recharges--meaning fewer depleted batteries and less waste, which is better for the environment.

Giving it a lifespan of up to 1000 recharges required breakthroughs in battery technology. Apple electro-chemists developed advanced chemistry that maintains the battery's charging capabilities longer than ever. And while most notebooks wear down their batteries by charging them at a constant rate, the 15-inch MacBook Pro takes a different approach. Using an Apple-developed technology called Adaptive Charging, a microchip on the battery constantly communicates with the computer to determine the optimal way to charge its cells, adjusting the current up and down depending on a variety of conditions. Combined, these advancements offer a dramatic improvement in battery lifespan: more than three times the lifespan of typical notebook batteries--up to five years.

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
Experience improved energy efficiency, expanded wireless connectivity, and amazing battery life with the 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, which has a super-fast 1066 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and an large 3 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)

The hafnium-infused circuitry--which reduces electrical current leakage in transistors--conserves even more energy, giving you more time away from the wall outlet. With 3 MB of shared L2 cache, data and instructions can be kept close to the two processor cores, greatly increasing performance and allowing the entire system to work more efficiently. And, because the processor cores share the L2 cache, either can use the entire amount if the other happens to be idle.

Video Processing & Output
The MacBook Pro delivers both powerful graphics performance and long battery life via the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M integrated graphics processor, which provides an outstanding everyday graphics experience with up to a 5x performance boost. Power your way through the latest 3D games--including Call of Duty and Quake--and enjoy improved graphics performance with iWork '09, iLife '09, and everything you do in Mac OS X. The power-saving NVIDIA integrated graphics processor also keeps you up and running throughout the day, with up to 7 hours of battery life.

The MacBook Pro includes a next generation Mini DisplayPort, which delivers a pure digital signal that can drive up to a 30-inch widescreen display. The Mini DisplayPort is ultra-compact at just 10 percent the size of a full DVI connector, and is compatible with Apple's 24-inch Cinema Display. Adapters are also available for using VGA, DVI/HDMI and Dual-Link DVI displays.

Hard Drive and Memory
The 250 GB Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive (5400 RPM) quickens the pace with a higher speed transfer of data--akin to USB 2.0. The 4 GB of PC3-8500 DDR2 RAM (two SO-DIMMs of 1024 MB) has an industry-leading 1066 MHz speed, and the RAM capacity can be increased to 8 GB.

Wireless Connectivity
The built-in 802.11n wireless networking provides up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g, but it's also backward-compatible with 802.11a/b/g routers, enabling you to communicate with the a wide variety of Wi-Fi resources. It works seamlessly with the new AirPort Extreme with 802.11n. Use the built-in Bluetooth wireless technology to connect to your PDA or cell phone, synchronize addresses, or download pictures from your cell phone. You can also use a wireless headset for iChat audio chats and VoIP calls as well as quickly share files with a colleague.

Video Conferencing with Built-in iSight
Artfully placed in the glass display is an iSight camera, which enables easy video conferencing as well as allows you to snap pictures of yourself and create video podcasts. Using the iChat AV application, video conferencing is integrated into your iChat buddy list, so initiating a video conference is a breeze. iChat also lets you hold audio chats with up to 10 people and provides high-quality audio compression and full-duplex sound so conversation can flow naturally. For video podcasting, you can record a short clip using the iSight camera, then use iWeb to create a video blog entry or post your GarageBand-recorded podcast.

Home Insurance Money Saving Tips

HOME insurance can be very expensive. By following a few simple tips you can save hundreds of dollars on your home insurance payments.

1. Buy your policy online: The cheapest place to buy insurance is online. Go to multiple web sites. Complete their quote forms and compare their offers.

2. Beef up home security: Install locks on all the doors and windows and install an alarm system.

3. Buy all your insurance from one company: If you have one insurance company that you trust, have a look at their packages. If you insure your home, the contents of your home and your car through the same company, it could work out much cheaper.

4. Don't buy an old house: Older homes can have all kinds of problems with wiring and plumbing. For insurance purposes, the newer your house the better.

5. Join the neighborhood watch: Not all companies allow a discount for this, so find out and then think about joining up.

6. Don't buy or build near water or on unstable ground: If you do that most companies won't touch you and the ones that do will charge an arm and a leg.

7. Buy a house made of bricks: Wooden homes are more prone to fire and storm damage. That makes brick homes cheaper to insure.

8. Buy a house in a low crime area: Insurance companies have databases with postcodes or zip codes and their crime risk levels. The higher the risk in your neighborhood the more you will have to pay to insure the contents of your home. So research the crime rate, before you buy.

9. Don't blow your no claims discount: Don't claim for small loses. If you haven't claimed for 3 years, it could easily cut 10% off your payments.

10. Choose a higher deductible/voluntary excess: The deductible is the part of the policy that the insurance company does not pay. If you had a claim of $1,000 and you have a deductible of $400, the insurance company would only pay out $600. The higher the deductible the lower the monthly payment.

How Web Hosting Helps Individuals Recover From Recession

The misconception that web hosting is a liability leads to the poor decision of many website owners. They go for cheap web hosting because they think it will benefit their business. In the long run, however, getting cheap web hosting can break their business. The reality that website owners face when they avail of cheap web hosting is a long period of downtime and inferior customer service.

Despite this fact, web hosting continues to be popular with people who want to expand their horizons. Web hosting allows a person to indulge in his likes by giving him the space to express his desires through a website. A website is one way of earning money while doing something you are interested in. Maintaining a website is so easy that you can work on it one step at a time. It is also a good fall back for the people who suddenly lose their job due to the current economic crisis.

Today, companies are downsizing and retrenching workers to combat the effects of the economic crisis and this act leaves many people jobless. Instead of despairing, one can look at the bright side and start a new venture for himself through websites. You only have to get a web hosting account to start your own online business which can in turn supplement your income.

Just like real estate, having a website can pour in profits from various places. Prices in one sector may fall but gains can be acquired in another sector. This can be clearly seen in the example of printer ink vs. women's luxury clothing line. These are two websites which is owned by a single person.

A person can own as many websites as he wants, with each website acting as its own business. People often compare having several websites to having several real estate properties. When the prices of one sector in the real estate industry drops, another sector may spike profits and this trend is also true for websites. For example, a person owns two websites with women's clothing and printer inks as main items. If the demand for women's clothing decreases, there is nothing to worry because another website, the printer ink website, can bring in profits.

The Internet has truly made it easier for people to start their own business. With a few strokes of the keyboard, clicks of the mouse, and some writing and designing skills, one can now have their own websites. Those who aren't confident enough in their designing skills can even purchase templates from web designers to make things even easier. And since a majority of the population today is using the Internet to find the information that they need, having websites can definitely be profitable.

In spite of the economic crisis we are facing today, one does not have to worry so much. It is very easy to create a business website that will make you earn additional income. Even if the first one you make will not generate enough profit, you can create another one with no difficulty. Take advantage of the unlimited domain hosting service most web hosting companies offer.

Whatever reasons you may have for venturing into owning a website, you must not falter in your goal. Just like anything in life, getting a business to run smoothly online is a big challenge which can be conquered only through sheer hard work.
