Useful Health Tips

January 8th, 2010 Comments off

Staying healthy is one of the most important things to remember. When you are young, you probably do not think about staying healthy and taking care of your health. When you age, however, you probably start taking care of it. Many of us start taking care of our health when it is already too late. The earlier you start taking care of your health, the better it is for you.

-Exercise on a regular basis. Exercising regularly will put you in a good mood, reduce stress levels, and it will reduce the cholesterol levels in your blood.
-Acquire medical supplies only from reliable sources.
-Remember that only you can know the state of your health. If you notice symptoms, if you feel tired often, or if you feel that you have problems catching breath, do something about it. Ignoring the problem is one of the worst things you can do for your body.
-Get plenty of sleep. I know that getting plenty of sleep might not be easy in our hectic lives, but sleep is very important.

Encouraging Readers to Contribute

January 8th, 2010 Comments off

When it comes to the world of blogging, having a steady number of visitors is very important. The question is how to increase the reader base. There are different ways to encourage visitors to keep coming, but this time I would like to present you with a way to increase the number of visitors by encouraging them to contribute. By observing the top blogs on the Internet, it is quite easy to notice that many of them encourage their readers to share their own thoughts. This is usually done by asking an open-ended question at the end of the post. You can also simply ask them for an opinion. Ask them about something you know that they have interest in. Of course, another good way to encourage people to contribute is by starting some kind of contest. Anyway, there can be huge benefits arising from having a community that is used to actively contributing. Such dedicated visitors will be a less willing to stop visiting your blog. That is because they will feel that they contributed a lot to it. While it may not be that easy to encourage your visitors to do so, it will be worth it in the long run.

What to Back Up

January 8th, 2010 Comments off

Backing up data is very important. It is up to a person what he wants to back up; however, there is an agreement on what should be backed up on your computer in the first place. Here are some of the files and folders that definitely should be backed up, so that you will not lose any important data:

1. My Documents. It probably contains your most important documents. In case you store your documents in a different folder, make sure you back it up instead.
2. Outlook folders and settings. This will ensure your outlook setting will be backed up.
3. Registry. This is the most important part of your operating system, so it is important to have a back up. This can also be done by setting a restore point in System Restore.
4. Email. You may sometimes want to back up any important emails.
5. Instant messengers. You should especially consider backing them up if you sue them on a regular basis or when you want to have any important conversations backed up.
6. Program files. Make sure you back up all of the programs you use often.
7. Of course, backing up the content of your blog is also important.

There is nothing worse than losing valuable data, so back up anything you might ever need in the future.

Proofreading Tips

January 7th, 2010 Comments off

I have been focusing on proofreading this blog recently, and I am pleased to say that I corrected a lot of errors. According to many people proofreading is tedious, and hard to do well. Yet, every blogger can benefit from some proofreading tips. That is because we want our articles to look professional. We want the respect of our visitors, and fellow bloggers. Here are some tips which might help you:

-Read a lot. I think this point is pretty obvious. The more you read, the easier proofreading becomes. This is especially true if you assume a proofreader mindset. Try to inspect every word and take your time. Reading newspapers or magazines may be a good idea.
-Write a lot. The more you write, the less you are going to repeat common writing errors. You can either write a lot of articles for your blog, or simply write about whatever you like for practice. Writing articles is an excellent exercise.
-Ask another bloggers or friend to spell check your posts. It might be even more effective than checking your own posts. You may want to return the favor and spell check his articles as well.

Proofreading well is tough, but in the end it is very rewarding. Of course, it is not that easy to spot all of the errors, but it is important to at least notice some of them. With time you are going to be a better and better writer so do not worry about that.

What would you do if you had one million dollars? This is just an example of a topic you could ask your readers to write about if you organize a contest. Contests and giveaways are a great way to increase the traffic to your site and obtain valuable links from all over the blogosphere. I would like to give you some examples of some contests and giveaways that other bloggers organized:

-A certain blogger was giving away USB flash drives. You may even want to preload it with software to make it more valuable. Ask participants to post about your giveaway on their blogs. You may also choose to ask them to subscribe to your RSS feed. Participants should also leave a comment informing you what they did. To make this giveaway more appealing you may promise each participant that you will link to his blog just for participate in the giveaway.
-One blogger asked his readers to write about what they would do if they had one million dollars. You could ask them to create a post on their blog with a link to your contest, or you could simply tell them to leave a comment on your website.
-A webmaster of a popular blog organized a contest in which the prize was free advertising on this popular blogs website. This can encourage many people to participate if your blog is indeed popular and has high Page Rank.
-Another blogger asked his readers to write an article on any subject that explains how to do something. The only requirement was to link to his website. In this particular competition, he was giving away cash prizes. Giving away cash prizes is always a good idea, as this way people can spend their money however they want.

If you decide to organize contents or giveaways, make sure that you clearly specify when you will choose the winners. Additionally, you should keep in mind that asking participants to link to your site is a good way to obtain a lot of backlinks. Even if your blog is not very popular that is not a problem, because there will be fewer participants, which means higher changes of winning for anyone who participates.
