Blogger Poll Results, Assessment and Resolutions for 2014

Hello everybody, 2014 has just started and via my most recent post I tried to remind one important thing to bloggers. Well, somewhere in mid of December 2013 I opened a poll right in the sidebar with an intend to get suggestions for myself from you folks to get know about your interest. So that I can start writing stuff on that particular topics. The categories (topics) which I mentioned in the poll named as "Which Article Series You Want To See First On Bloggeristan?" were;

  1. Blogging Tricks,
  2. Learn SEO with Backlinks Bonus, and
  3. Make Money Online
blogger poll results

In around the 2-3 weeks only five people submitted their opinions. Means the numbers were quite low even below than my expectations. Moreover, the results make it more difficult for me to guess what actually people want to read. The poll closed on 31st December 2013 with the following results;

  1. Blogging Tricks (2),
  2. Learn SEO with Backlinks Bonus (2), and
  3. Make Money Online (1)

What results I actually drained out of the poll? 

That's a nice question and actually this question also forced me think seriously when I asked it to myself. But soon I end up with some positive points.

The first thing I determined responsible for low number of votes cast on the poll despite the fact that now a days Bloggeristan.com is getting around 30-100+ visits per day with an average of 1.6 pageviews per visit and an average time of three minutes on page, is the lack of Bloggeristan's regular readers. In short the answer for Why this blog is failed to get regular readers is the pattern or a posting frequency. And the second reason of that is the lack of posts on my blog.

In more than 2 years I posted around 60 blog posts and almost half of them were posted in 2012. And that's the time when blog was also on its peak with around 600+ daily visits and around 3k+ fans on social networking sites. Now many of the old posts have been outdated and expired to get traffic from search engines. Because now the blogging industry has grown and various technologies and strategies have been introduced and many got killed by Google or either by time. So why somebody will visit a blog daily where the content is outdated and the blog is not producing fresh content?

In spite of considerable efforts sadly I have been neglecting this blog again and again and feels unable to pull some time to put all creative ideas and other wealth as blog posts that worked in my case and will work for others too for sure if executed well. Now I have decided to try my best to welcome You with new and useful content every day and to add some more zeros after 30-100 visits per day, and that's my 2014's resolution for this blog.

As far as poll results are concerned, I have planned to write content in all three categories. May be in future I will reopen the poll to get your suggestions on any specific topic and I hope next time you will not make me disappoint. Well you folks are always most welcome to submit your questions and feedback via contact us page. Many thanks for stopped by! :)

A Reminder For Bloggers To Update Copyrights

According to Gregorian calendar the 365 days of the year 2013 has just ended. The Gregorian calendar, also known as civil calendar is not an authentic calendar but after getting votes in favor from UN and many other international organizations has gave it an unofficial global standard to date events. Currently it is being used worldwide to measure durations in many fields. For example like many others I'm also using it too as an year to show my exclusive rights on the content available on my blog for specific time.

copyrights 2014

Using All rights reserved or CC (Creative Common license) line in blog's footer is a quite common practice used to give a clear cut notice to all of the visitors to make them aware that I'm the actual owner of all the content; concepts, graphics, text, scripts, etc., everything that is available on blog. If any content curator wished to use something from your site then at-least he must need to give a link back (as dofollow) to the respective owners. Otherwise, if you caught someone who breached your Copyrights by reproducing or selling your content then you reserved the rights to sue him/her or file a DMCA takedown notice. You can read a useful post written by Roni Loren based on her own experience to make all bloggers aware to make habit to give credits to all the stuff you used that you actually don't own.

The purpose behind this post is to let you remind that 2014 has just started, and as a blogger kindly update the year to 2014 in copyrights section of your blog. Because I have found many sites and blogs which are still using 2013 and even some of them are still living in 2012 :D

Recommended: Why Google Authorship Photo Not Showing Up in Search? Answered

For newbies who are using readymade blogger templates and don't know how to customize copyrights. Please first copy few words from your blog's copyright section, for example "Copyright © 2013". Then go to blog >> template >> edit html and after making search for copied keywords via Ctrl+f replace 2013 with 2014 and hit on save button. That's it. In case you can not find copyrights in edit html section then probably your template designer has escaped copyrights to make it difficult for folks to remove designer credits. In such case after finding the responsible piece of script you may need to decode it via any online tool for specific purpose or its recommended to contact your template designer to get the right solution.

A Motivational Real Journey of Make Money Online of Pro Blogger from Pro Gamer

Are you still looking for ways to earn money through internet? I can feel that moment because I suffered such ugliest moments when you have time or you want to earn though any reliable and respectable source to fulfill your necessities but things don't work as you have heard by so-called web entrepreneurs. I remember that moment almost about 2 years ago. When playing games computer and physical games are one of my first priorities and I spend almost my all weekend in watching TV (Mostly UFC, Basket Ball and News) and playing computer games specially GTA and Counter Strike. And Alhamdulillah at that time as today my Parents and my whole family supports me and providing me each and every facility which I want and I have no need to earn money and literally I never think about it seriously.

One day when I was playing Counter Strike on LAN, someone tell me that he earned $100 from internet. At that moment I was just amazed, and said him “b***h are you serious…”, and literally I give him a lot of respect from heart core. Because I even don’t know the ABCD of blogging, or ways of online earning. And that guy earned $100 in a month, means if you convert that amount in local currency, that was too much for any youngster/gamer or a student like me. But, at that time I didn't take it seriously and forgot about his story. But after few days one of my university friends met in cafeteria, he starts telling me about his online business. He told me that he was earning through internet without any effort on daily basis. According to him he work only hardly 1 hour a day and was making $2-3. “Are you Crazy!!!?” Basically that was the second time when I amazed after hearing about story of to make money online. Later when I understand the purpose of that guy is to add me in his team as a referral and the funny thing is that he was Newbie in online business and don’t know exactly how to get success. But at that time I was start thinking that what is bad in it to earn 2-3 bucks daily from internet by spending only 1 hour in clicking ads (Advertisements). Yes, now I think you Pals got it. Yes, then I join PTC (paid to click Business). I want to feel the charm of money (I don’t care about its amount even that it was in cents) which was earned by my own hands and to surprise my friends that see I earned these bucks from internet. But later I realized that it’s not easy as its look and heard; even it is very difficult to earn a single cent form PTC. The reason is that there is a lot of scam and fraud. And only professionals with better strategies, tools, experienced one with some investment, means only big Crocodiles can only survive there.

This is the big interesting story but I don’t want to waste your precious time. In short I almost spend 5 months and at least 6 hours a day to understand PTC business and also earned some bucks. But in last when I got gripped on this online money making business I left it because I want to use my skills, I was an engineering student and there is no creativeness in PTC, no similarity. Simply I want to utilize my education or want to work in such field which I can show to world with fame that YES THIS IS MY BUSINESS, and also I found PTC as lil unethical way of earning.

So, once again I’m on search engines like Google with most trending keywords; how to earn money from internet or what are the ways to earn money. So, after 15-20 days of hard browsing I found blogging as a good source and way to make some dollars online. Where you will exactly earn the same amount as much you invest your efforts. You are your own boss, and in blogging you can choose any topic/niche to write on it and there is no limit of earning money. So, the first blog which I created is on UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship; I love this game, and watch regularly each and every single moment and clip which I either found on TV or on YouTube, internet). The purpose of telling about my blog is to tell you that if you looking for start blog then go for that one on which you can write a lot. And the second blog which I created is on engineering.

In staring of blogging journey you need too much focus and I did same. Even just removing navbar from BlogSpot blog template (blogger.com) I spend at least 1-2 days. Means I spend a lot of time in learning blogging including creating websites, tools, SEO, etc, etc. So, after few months I stop posting articles on above mentioned blogs and make some more blogs which MASHA-ALLAH give me and still giving me a great business. Currently I’m working on two blogs; one is on Latest Technology, as an engineering student I love to write and share updates of tech world. And the second other blog which I want to grow up is Pro Bloggers Tricks Bloggeristan, which you friends are reading now. The purpose of this blog is to share the ideas, tricks and my experiences which I got and observed in this field of blogging and to share all updates with you, to spread  awareness and to make you guys able to generate some handsome income (money) from internet in a respectable manner.

This is the compressed summary of my journey (which is ALHAMDULILLAH still in progress) of moving towards Pro Blogger from Pro Gamer. You can join my team of thousands of Fans, Friends and blog Followers on different social Platforms and can also subscribe to get updates directly into your mail box free of cost by simply submitting your email address. Here, 1 answer of a question asked by so many buddies in emails that why you still using free domains on your some blogs. Answer is simple that, when I start blogging I took promised myself that I try my best not to invest a single penny in internet business from my pocket. So, I invest only that money on that blog which make it. And believe me, this strategy works well.

Edit: Alhamdullillah Now I'm the owner of more than dozen of blogs and websites :)

So, hopefully this little story or blogging journey encourages you, and work as inspirational, motivational or as catalyst. My best wishes are always with you. Peace and Blessings Buddies. Be Happy.

Keyword Cloaking and Blogging | Black-Hat SEO Tricks

Some of fans asking that what is cloaking and can we use it on our blogs. The answer of this question is little being logical. First we need to understand what is cloaking or keyword Cloaking. So it is simply define as a simple (SEO) Search Engine Optimization technique or trick in which we try to cheat engine Bots which are use for indexing our site content by hiding some strategic keywords in script codes.


So, cloaking is to apply cheat to search engines. In which your site is look simple and normal to readers and visitors but internally it is highly optimized and contain clouds of keywords. A good example of cloaking is, if you are hosting a P**n site and you want a good page rank in search results especially of Google. You can cloak it and show different results such as learning or education site. So, If someone will search for “learn English”, your cloaked website will get considered and ranked in education results. That’s why a lot of people search for “learn English” and gets a returned result saying “Find **** in your local” or title will be “learn English” but when you will click on the link it will be redirect you to the original site which is “Find **** in your local” in this case.
