For the best player

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

For the best player out there, it should be only the best Online Casino web site. But where do you find one among the hundreds of online casino web sites proliferating the internet right now? At Online Casinos Directory!

You know, there are so many online casino web sites right now. Each one offering something different from the other. Others are offering the same thing. But the consideration that other players should be looking into is: “is the web site trustworthy?”. For example, several web sites are offering Video Poker games. A friend of mine is into poker. And players that he has known through the one year that he has been playing are constantly referring different poker sites to him. For other players, they might try it all out, as enticing as the offers are. But for someone like who has been playing the game for quite sometime now, he developed this habit of checking out reviews of poker sites before he even logs on to the site itself.

That’s what I would suggest to all you players out there. Remember to check out Online Casinos Directory first and find out if the online casino site referred to you is trustworthy. Go and visit OnlineCasinosDir.com now for more information.

Entrecard woes

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

I bet a lot of you EC droppers out there are having the same problems like me. Entrecard loading is horrible for the past few days now! It’s taking me forever to load a site. Accessing the inbox is out of the question. It takes forever to load a site. I checked on both Chrome and Firefox. The same horrible loading.

I was wondering what Entrecard is doing with this problem. I mean, I can understand the server load and all. But what’s their proposed solution to this? And what’s the fixation on monetizing blogs this time?

Entrecard has given this blog tremendous traffic. And for that I will always be thankful, especially with the Alexa rank boost.

But in times like this, it makes you think about driving traffic to this blog the hard way again.

Changed!

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

As I have said in my previous post, I am thinking of changing my theme. But instead of the theme itself, I just changed the header hehe… Like it?

Anyway, I will be posting some Dneero surveys here from time to time. And here are two of the surveys…





Mailing lists

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

You know, not all people have the luxury of time to browse the internet to find what they are looking for. Or to go window shopping. Some people, like me, have limited time to do these things. Thus, to be part of a store’s consumer mailing list is beneficial for people like us.

More and more businesses are resorting to the mailing list for their marketing strategy. Almost every one nowadays are checking their emails regularly. I do check my email daily, first thing in the morning in fact. And seeing an interesting product or service in my mailbox, reading about it there, will be something I would like to do. Especially while sipping my cup of coffee. It keeps me updated on new offers from different stores.

Some companies I know are resorting to getting a mortgage mailing list. Just to make sure that their products and services are really going out to their target market.

So if you are a company who wants to do a different marketing approach, go ahead and contact Martin Worldwide and get your consumer or mortgage mailing lists. Make sure your products and services get sent to the people who are interested. Visit MartinWorldwide.net now for more information.

WAH Moments: Eating out with the boss

Friday, October 10th, 2008

One of the advantages of working at home is that you need not worry about spending so much money on a single meal. Like what I did before when I was still working for a big call center company here in the country.

Every lunch time, my ex-boss, let’s call her Bratty, would ask the whole finance team to eat lunch with her. That was good considering some bosses ignores their staff outside the office, whereas Bratty wanted to spend lunch time with us. The problem was, she always picked the expensive restaurants. Where a single meal costs almost 500pesos (roughly $11). If you are someone like me who is a breadwinner, shelling out that much money daily is a big chunk out of the paycheck. 500 pesos in 5 days is 2,500 pesos (roughly $55) already. In just 1 week! Multiply that by 4 weeks and just imagine the number of grocery items you could buy from that amount already.

I could say no to the invitation and eat somewhere cheaper. But then, she’d make you feel like you were not part of the team. As second in rank to her, that’s a big blow. Being in her good side was my number one priority back then. I had no choice but to endure her constant bullying.

Now, thanks to freelance work, I no longer worry about spending that much in a day. Eating at home is undoubtedly cheaper than eating out. Plus, I get to eat more at a lesser price… One of the perks of working at home :)

Changing themes again?

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Those who know me from way back I started with Akoni, knew my penchant for frequently changing themes. Whenever something happens, blog got slapped for instance), I have this overwhelming need to change something in my blog. Don’t ask me why. It’s just one of my quirks. It is the same way with my offline life. When I feel helpless about something, even little things like missing a tv show, I channel my frustration in my blogs. Maganda na rin di ba kaysa kung saan ko pa ma-channel frustrations ko hehe

Or you know, maybe it’s just my fickle mind! I easily lose interest in the same colors. I think I don’t like the orange in this blog anymore. I feel more like Christmas colors. Hmm…

Reviews of the best

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Online Casino web sites. There are so many of them right now. Every where you look, there is a new one popping up. Of course, I am not saying that the new online casinos are scams. Most of these are legitimate, I am pretty sure. But for those new casino players out there, they could be scammed if they do not know what online casino web sites are trusted by players like them.

I suggest, for the newbies out there as well as the regular players, read the Online Casino Reviews at Gamblers Lodge. You just never know that the one recommended to you could turn out to be an online casino web site that is not suited to your needs. You might be looking for something that the web site you are going to does not cater. Maybe, looking for an online casino accepting US players? Or online casinos with no deposit? One thing is important in looking for these web sites. Make sure that these are legitimate online casino sites. You do not want to be scammed out of your hard earned money, right? And always check out what other players are saying about a particular online casino site that you are eyeing.

Whichever, find the Best Online Casinos at GamblersLodge.com now.

Additional tasks

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

My sister and I were discussing our job descriptions the other night. She was asking me about some tasks that were assigned to her recently. She was suspecting her boss of giving her extra tasks just because she finishes all her tasks way ahead of time. I told her that if the tasks are totally unreasonable, like it is way beyond her duties, she should go talk to her boss about it. I believe it is unfair for a boss to heap on additional tasks to her staff just because that staff schedules her task efficiently and finishes way ahead of time. Promote her and then give her the tasks that are commensurate to her skills.

Slapped once more

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Last year, I believe around this same time, this blog of mine Sasha-says.com was one of the casualties of the big G slap. That was the first time it happened across the blogosphere and I was not spared. I had several blogs with PRs ranging from 5-3 that were all slapped. I was so depressed that time, worrying about its effect on my monetizing activities. Thank God advertisers considered other type of rankings that time. Technorati, Alexa and Link Popularity. I was earning A LOT before the slap but then, in His goodness, I even earned more afterwards. It was as if the slap never happened. Of course, my PR4 blog that was earning buckets that time was hit the most. This blog which was a PR2 that time was slapped with a 0. But then, opps kept pouring in that time. I even had a single offer worth $200 for 200 words!

In other words, even with the best earner hit the most, other blogs picked up the slack. Maybe, it was also because there were just a few of us monetizing our blogs that time. Now, every where you look at, it seems everyone has joined the bandwagon.

Oh well, I am just hoping that this time around, even with the slap once again, opps would still keep pouring in. Christmas is just less than 80 days away. I am sure we all need a few more bucks in our wallets come Christmas time :)

New cookware

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

One of my cousins is getting married by first week of December this year. I am really excited because I am close to my cousin and her fiance. I am happy that they are tying the knot after three years of being a couple. I just know they will be happy together. And blessed with more happiness, kids… These two people have come a long way from being both products of broken families.

Anyway, they have set up a wedding registry so that gifts won’t be duplicated. I am giving them a Le Creuset Cookware set and Kitchen utensils. My cousin loves to cook and I thought it would be better to give them something practical. Something they can use immediately in their new home.

If you are also attending a wedding soon, why not give a Cookware set from Move Cook Shop? I always believe in giving practical gifts. Items that can be used daily and not something that needs to be stored and would eventually be forgotten. What about you? Do you prefer to give gifts that are practical or something expensive that the recipient will be thrilled to have but will be afraid to use? Go to MoveCookShop.co.uk for some cookware sets.

Something to pass the time

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

When you are having a dreary day and you want to make it livelier and filled with action, how about some online casino games? It has become a favorite past time among so many men and women out there. No need to go out of the house to have some good time. No need to spend too much money on overpriced meals. With the rising prices of basic commodities and gas prices, staying at home and eating home-cooked meals sound appealing more and more. Thus, staying at home and playing online casino games could be more beneficial to you than you know.

Online Poker has become my cousins favorite game these days. It started out with an actual card game when we went to Pangasinan last December. Because they had so much fun playing poker almost every night when we were there, they just had to play even when we already went home. My cousins love card games and since they got hooked to poker, they get to love card games even more. So they started frequenting online poker sites.

But what is the best online casino site to play at? I know some of my cousins who play blackjack online. I, myself, prefer online slots more than the other casino games. If you are looking for online casino sites where you can play at, get the best bonus, win more, then may I suggest that you check out Casino.de now?

One thing about me

Monday, October 6th, 2008

If there is one thing you should know about me, it should be that I am a practical person. If I can buy a pair of shoes that I can be comfortable wearing and is stylish at the same time, all for a discounted price, you won’t see me wearing a pair of Manolo Blahnik. That’s for sure. Whereas my sister will surely buy a pair if she has the money. Brand is not that important to me unless it’s all about food.
