If you want to know how robot crawl your site, just view the source of generated html content. Basically robot will just read from the first character till the last. Here is something for you to think about: if link to page B is at the end of my page, can robot find it?

A rule of thumb is to put your important content(key phrases) and your links at higher position so that it can be easily crawled by robot so that next page can be crawled and PR can be propagated to next page as well.

If for any reason you need to use javascript or image as navigation link, try to put plain text link if possible, as robot prefer plain html. The following changes is performed for the same reason:

How to differentiate between webmasters and bloggers? If you browse around, a lot of “high profile” webmasters are actually bloggers. Sounds strange? Or we should define what is a blogger, what is a blog?

From Wiki:
A blog (an abridgment of the term web log) is a website, usually maintained by an individual, with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order.

Doesn’t seems to clear my doubt.

From Fred:
A blog is a scaled down Content Management System(CMS)

LOL, seems easier to understand. Nowadays people just use it(blog software) as a CMS, that’s for people with limited web publishing knowledge(or don’t border to do the dirty job) to put their content online. I guess we cannot call a person who run a site, that powered by blog software, a blogger anymore.

There are good websites that run by individual, but where are you? Why don’t you come out and shout that you are a qualified webmaster?

WOW time really flies, now is already second quarter of the year and I’m now putting in my second post. Luckily I’m not earning my living using this blog.

May be just write down some “major” happenings that I still can remember right now.

1. Celebrated my birthday with buffet lunch at the line Shangri-La Hotel. Lunch is around SGD 55, the second time there and still not manage to finish all the varieties.

Bought a Compaq 3764TU laptop + Office 2007 + HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Printer, Fax, Scanner, Copier = SGD 1699 + SGD 99 + SGD 99

Had hot chocolate at Coffee Bean, is surprisingly good.

2. Moved to another dedicated server, close to RM 1K of hosting cost per month is no joke.

3. Stayed away from stock market, till recently

Can’t really remember what I have achieved for the pass few months, wondering am I wasting my time or I actually did something but just too insignificant to stay in my head.

I’ve not been actively growing my sites, kind of tired and lack of ideas, however, income from adsense might be doubled. May be greenback is so weak that people can raise the bids with the same “cost”.

May be I should focus on some higher value tasks rather than surfing here and there everyday, work on freelance projects(but the current one is enough to finance my 3K dining table, how to reject???), blogging(???), etc etc.

My sites’ traffic didn’t really grow for the pass few months, I guess is time to work on some SEO, internet marketing, and some other interesting ideas again.

Another year again, time to think what have I done, and what I want to do for this year. Everyone is blessed in year 2007, I’m happy, lucky, and healthy. I would like to be blessed again in year 2008 as well.

Some of the things that I would like to achieve:
1. Exercise more regularly, keep my weight below 60KG
2. Turn my tummy fat into muscles
3. Pickup tennis and golf
4. Eat vegetarian during first and fifteen day of Chinese calendar month
5. Do more good things to the society
6. Treat myself better
7. Treat my family, friends, people around me better
8. Advance in my career
9. Obtain CFA certification
10. Working towards first 1 million dollars, at least figure a way out

More to add soon.

Last week i went to MCR’s concert at The MAX Pavilion@Singapore Expo, was a good one. There are 2 kind of tickets, free standing and normal seat. The free standing area is very big and is just right in front of the stage, while normal seat is far behind. Initially i thought free standing will be quite crowded, it turned out that there were a lot of space behind.

After squeezing with the rest for first few songs, i decided to move out and relax behind. It still considered pretty close to the stage and I can actually see more, coz was blocked by all the cameras, phones up in the air The price is only different by a bit, but the condition for normal seat is kind of very bad to me, was far, and everyone were standing on their chair.

Helena, what you will see from normal seat behind

I do know that I have created an account with , but I can’t remember where do I put this program, not MYB, not MB, not MF…… This is a forgotten account until a few days ago I got a cheque from them. USD 50++ not bad….. I immediately dig out the login detail and check where is the money come from. It seems like someone has put a link for 2 months in one of my sites, which got only less than 20 unique visitors per day.

Seems like it is time for me to take a serious look at this program again. I believe Text-Link-Ads value your link value by looking at your pagerank and alexa ranking as well.

May be you would like to take a look and try, coz with that kind of traffic, TLA’s return is far more better than google adsense

Finally i got time to do a check and scan on my laptop, should have do this more often, coz lots of important information inside. I also took this chance to upgrade some of the protection systems, here are latest package :

1. firewall – Zone Alarm
2. spyware scan – Ad-Aware 2007
3. virus scan – BitDefender
4. virus scan – AVG

I was one of the judges, together with Miss Hypertune, Miss Tourism Malaysia, and Mr Manhunt.

Me and the adorable girls. Pardon my look please, I’m not that ugly in real person LOL.

Thanks to the rate cut, US is creating another bubble again….. poor USD get lowered again…..

My income stream comes from Ringgit Malaysia, USD, and British Pound, in average, USD still bring in the most at the moment. With lousy exchange rate, i am seeing less and less in my monthly statement.

From the available slip that i can find at the moment, the highest USD to SGD exchange is 1.765 at March 2003. From the latest slip i have, the exchange rate is 1.465 at October 2007. That is really sucks…..

I always complaint why I optimise MYB for google search engine, but it get so much more traffic from yahoo, i can’t understand where went wrong, but…… now i’m asking myself, what the sh*t is yahoo doing? I’ve not done any modification for months (lazy me), I just can’t understand what can cause such a drastic change.

Yahoo Traffic

But I’m pleased that increased in Google traffic can cover my loss in Yahoo.
