Just heard from a cyber-friend that John Chow, a well known blogger, is offering backlink from his PR6/Alexa 2,497 site.
John Chow dot Com is a blog that helps you make money. He is offering to link to your blog if you review his blog.
His website offers a lot of information and useful tools. These includes the “buy me a coffee” plugin, a money-making e-book, and lots of SEO information.
Its uniqueness and information rich nature attracted lots of people and becomes a must-read for some of us. I strongly suggest you to check it out.

Under Usability & Navigation+ Web Design & CSS
Recently I was asked to add a web brochure to a website. It typically consists of 8-10 pages, featuring the benefit of employing a business etc.
A traditional method of presenting this is in the “About Us” page, where everything is listed on the same page with some small stock photos on the side.
Or you might have seen this on some member websites which have a virtual tour, and you have to click “next” to continue the tour.
Nowadays internet users require quick, precise information. Therefore, I have designed the brochure to be 10 pages, with bullet pointed features. It is also very important to have strong call-to-action - asking the reader to contact this business for further information. It doesn’t hurt to place 2 on the same page.
Below the main paragraph I have links to other pages. However, instead of “next page”, I have got all the 10 pages listed at the bottom of the page by title. Underneath the title, I have a short paragraph (2 lines max) outlining what the page is about. The title is also link-enabled, making these links keyword-rich.
Doing it this way would increase the number of internal linking and page contents, which are in favour of search engine crawlers. Moreover, this would bring internet users straight to the information that they are looking for, hence increasing usability.
This is indeed not a new trick. But I am surprised to see lots of people still using the old method.

I just come across this service the other day, and has successfully applied an account. This service is named Bloggerwave.
What you have to do is to write comments about anything that you like (provided by Bloggerwave’s sponsors) and let them review your post. If your post is approved, then you would be awarded the money. However, your post need to fulfil certain requirements. An example is as below:
“Bloggerwave.com is now live and is looking for bloggers. Write 50 words about this unique opportunity and start earning money today. You need to copy the link and place in your blog + place the sponsered by bloggerwave in the bottom of the text on your blog.”
Simple? The main thing about this is not the money. It is really to have fresh, updated contents for your website.
Happy blogging
