I used to tell bloggers to get to the point – your readers don’t really care what you had for breakfast. But you know what? On some blogs the hot topic of the day is … what the blogger had for breakfast. How much personal information should you share with your readers? That depends. Let’s take a look. What Are You Blogging About? If you’re running a recipe blog and you tried a new recipe for breakfast this morning then by all means, share your personal experience with your readers. Anytime you can personalize your content you’ll make a stronger connection. If your personal experience is relevant to the theme of your blog, then in most cases your readers will appreciate your personal stories. Anyone can spout facts all day long, but to be able to make those facts relevant on a personal level for your readers makes them even more meaningful. Be careful, though. Your stories should be used to highlight the facts or information you’re presenting, not overwhelm or replace them

Looking to make some extra income? Today owning a car gives you plenty of options... * We all know cars cost a lot of money. Buying them is just the beginning. You need to fuel them up, and pay to keep them insured and maintained. And if you own them, they lose value 24/7, even if you don’t use them. Conversely, if you use them a lot, they’ll lose value even quicker. However, they don’t have to be such a drain on your resources. Your car can, in fact, be used as a tool to earn either living or just some money on the side, or at least to defray some operating costs. Here’s our guide to doing so. Before we go on, remember, in most cases, you’ll have to declare this income and pay tax on it - sorry, we don’t make the rules - and there may be a requirement to obtain a different type of driving license and make changes to your vehicle insurance. 1 Carpool with workmates Many large employers use noticeboards (either the old fashioned ones or, increasingly, electronic ones

​Gmail  is the most utilized email client in the world boasting over 900 million users worldwide. Some people love it and some people hate it, but often times it is the client that you have to use in some business situations because it links to other Google services such as Drive and Docs. Gmail is very versatile and customizable and there are some things you can do with it such as attach a phone number to it and use Google as an answering machine. One of the biggest concerns with Gmail is that of privacy. Emails are scanned by Google in order to gather more information on your likes and dislikes. Since Google captures just about any information on the user it can through the use of the search engine and other services, in order to build an advertising profile, you may want to diversify the services you use. Another problem with Gmail is like all other Google products. Its interface is not very intuitive or user friendly compared to other clients So, here are five alternatives. M

What is Dropbox? Dropbox is a cloud storage service that allows you to store your files on the cloud. With Dropbox, now you can access all kinds of files on any device. Dropbox was founded in 2007 in San Francisco, California, the  United  States by Drew Houston, at the age of 24, and Arash Ferdowsi at the age of 22. It was originally started by Drew Houston, who later convinced an Arash Ferdowsi, a college student to quit his school and join him. These two have made billions with Dropbox since collaboration. Dropbox makes it easy for teams and individuals to access and share files among themselves. Although Dropbox is a premium service, however, it is free to try for 30 days. They also offer you 2GB free storage which is free forever. To add to that, they offer you opportunities to get more space with their referral program. With their basic account, you get 500 MB per friend you refer, and you can get up to 16 GB. With their plus and professional account, you can

YouTube  is the worlds largest video sharing site in with billions of videos on every topic imaginable for your viewing pleasure. On top of that, you can download your own videos for the world to see, as it is the third most viewed site in the world according to Alexa. So why would you want to go anywhere else to view and share videos? One good reason is that since Google bought YouTube, it has been known for censorship. The other valid reason to go somewhere else is to protect your privacy. Although all video sharing sites do collect cookies, they are not building a Big Brother profile on you as Google does. So let’s take a look at five alternatives. Daily Motion Daily Motion is probably the most similar video sharing platforms to YouTube as far as layout is concerned. The upside is that the videos tend to be of higher quality. The downside is that videos are limited to 20 minutes. They also have less strict copyright laws and uploaders usually don’t have to be worried about

For a steady stream of income and financial security, you have to get up very early in the morning (often rudely awakened by the shrieks of an alarm clock) to avoid traffic. Then you take a shower, grab a quick bite, commute to the office, and clock in for 8 hours of work. Five days a week, this is your routine, with a bit of reprieve on the weekends and holidays. Your idea of a good weekend is sleeping in, not going on an adventure somewhere. How long will it take until you realize you’re trapped in the endless soul-sucking loop of being an employee? Maybe it’s time to quit your 9-to-5 job as a writer (be it a copywriter, business writer, PR, or any other kind of writing that comes with a desk, a Bundy clock, and a domineering boss) and go freelance. It seems like a risky decision to make, but  over 50 million freelancing Americans  (and counting) have made that decision in the last couple of years and seem to be happy about it. Think about it. Do you find yourself increasingly l

If you’re new to the freelance, work-from-home scene, then you have to be ready for your fair (or unfair, as the situation always is) share of scams. The ideal situation is that you will never be scammed, but sadly, shady people out there are always looking to fool freelancers in need of income. Transitioning from a traditional office job with its rigid structure and rules to the more flexible, be-your-own-boss scenario of freelancing does have its perks, but risks are always involved. When I first started freelancing a decade ago, I’ve had several “clients” disappear all of a sudden without paying me, right after I’ve sent them articles I’ve written. Then there were those who suddenly gave me new tasks and responsibilities I didn’t sign up for or were not in our initial agreement (known to us in the freelancing industry as “scope creep”). It may seem daunting, but experience has taught me how to spot a legit freelance client from a sham one. I made a list of ten things you should

In order to truly earn a full-time income with Adsense, we first need to determine what a “full-time living” is for you. Just for the sake of this article, let’s take the average yearly income in the United States which is around $43,000 per year. To some of you, this may be way more than you need and for others, it will not support your current lifestyle from whatever full-time job you have. However, I think most of us would be very happy with over $40k from a “passive” income source (I’ll explain why I put “passive” in quotes a little bit later). So, if we want to make $43,000 per year that is approximately $118 per day or $3,540 per month. How do you achieve this? Well, first I’ll give the answer you don’t want to hear and then I will give a more direct answer. The answer you don’t want to hear is “it depends.” …I know – worst answer ever. I hate hearing that. The reason “it depends” is because every niche will earn a different amount from Adsense. If you get in on a s
