where do i draw the line between the truth and fiction

In the article how easy is it to make money online, i outlined the experience i have had in the quest to be an Internet marketeer. With every one using the Internet to advertise themselves as experts in this or that where do i draw the line between the truth and fiction.

Every one is claiming to have the secret to make easy money on line or have the key that will unlock the gates of abundance in your life. You start to follow the lead only to realize they are either selling something to you or they are a scam. It is frustrating and time wasting. I have been in this field for some time and i will say it as it is. Check me out on www.gooddealstoreshop.com.

What is fiction? There is nothing like easy money or should i say quick money scheme is a lie. Most of these claims are out there to make money out of your ignorance. They are willing to pay Google to advertise them self in the first page and there fore ranking high in the web page fooling many that they are credible. We rarely scroll to the next SERP page. They know that and they will do anything to appear in the first SERP page where they bet you will likely click on there website. Ignorance costs us money and most precious of all 'time'.

What is the truth and what is fiction? The truth is the only way to make money is through proven ethical  methods and work hard that comes along with it. In as much as you would want to wake up a millionaire tomorrow you are far from the reality. Most of the people i have come across in the Internet have worked for years through pain and agony. Its the only way and no other way.


We all want to have financial independence live a good life go to holiday in Hawaii two times a year and drive the latest Maserati. My friend the only way up there is through the stairs. No easy way and as i have said if you find one please let me know. It is up to you to draw the line between the truth and fiction!

How easy is it to make money online?

In the recent past we have seen a surge on advertisements on how to make money online. The claims are sometimes exonerated and made to look easy. A couple of months ago i decided i want to try for my self. I made a research on the kind of thing i would like to do that will not be costly and that which i would like.

We know that the internet is full of garbage some of which are completely out of this world. Don't get me wrong, from the experience i have had i know it is possible to make money and a lot of it online. The issue is its not as simple as the claims might be and if there is a simple way out there please let me know and i will jump into it head first.

This is what i did to get to where i am and my experience i know can be shared with many out there. From the research i did i decided to become an affiliate marketeer with Amazon.Without proper knowledge i went out and set up an account with them had to learn most of the things from scratch for i did not have proper computer knowledge. Thank God for my friend who helped me to set up the website and launch it. After hard work i had my www.gooddealstoreshop.com on line.

With the no previous knowledge in niche, SEO, or keyword i had no idea what i was up against. I was crawling the internet day and night for tips and knowledge. I realized i had to market the website really well for me to have the traffic. I had to learn to optimize the site which i had no idea how to go about. Everything in the site from setting the categories,color, layout but my friend designed the logo for me.

Someone said to me that a good strategy would be to have a blog, write articles, build backlinks that would generate traffic to my site. All this was jargon! what is backlink? What is SEO?What is good keyword? How do i write a good article? What is rich content article? This is internet language that you have to learn. Every field has its set of language and unless you learn the language you will not be able to communicate, basic principle but mostly ignored.

I embarked on blog with this in mind that i have to market my website. I looked around for the blog site that i could sign up with. I signed with Blogger and had my first blog enews.blogspot-The Store. I started writing not knowing how to find keyword or how to optimize the content. With try and error i started linking the content to my website. Writing was not something i had done since leaving collage years ago. Where do i find the information and how do i compile the information to make it a nice article?That's a subject of another day. I realized it was not an easy task and quickly i was running out of material.

After sometime on Blogger i found WordPress i signed up with them and set up Comgeneration which i latter connected with the website store to make www.gooddealstoreshop.com/blog. I thought that would be a clever idea and from then i started working on that blog. As i struggled ignorantly i realized i had to learn so much if i have to get anywhere with my mission. My friend suggested i sign up The Keyword Academy who would help me. I am not marketing for them but i found their information very helpful. Mark who is one of the guys behind the project is brilliant and honest. One thing i remember him pointing out is that its a lot of work to write for money or  to get traffic but with persistence it would pay off. He also said that if you make one dollar online you should celebrate. I respect him for that. I like honest people and he is one of the few i have come cross in the internet world.

My friends having the blog is one thing but if you are thinking of making money through writing its not an easy task. I thought of Google Adsense which i thought would give me some money. So far i have made only £4.00. Its a lot of money given Mark said if i make £1.00 i should celebrate. I don't intend to discourage anyone but i want you to have an idea of the reality and if possible alert you so that you will have a better starting than mine.

Someone might be asking, is it easy to make money online then? Do i think it easy to make money online? My honest answer is NO!From my experience there is only one way up, the stairs. If you are thinking of a short cut it will be costly and not certain. I have labored day and night to be hear to tell the story. Every other garbage out there are proclaiming the easy way to make money online but my verdict is they are far from the truth. We tend to be wanting everything the easy way not realizing that for you to fly from one part of the world to another someone invested time and energy to give you that comfort. Somebody has to pay the price! Simple.

Do i regret certainly Not! I have come a long way to be where i am and i have learn so much than i would have never known. I love challenges and this has been a good one. It has opened my eyes to the possibilities if i persist and don't give up. I don't quit that's my motto. If you are someone who cannot persist 'please don't give up your day job' as Simon Cowell says. I have gained so much knowledge, i have adopted quite a lot and i am becoming better day by day.

If you have had a similar experience or something completely different please share with me in the comment. I greatly appreciate your time.

How ready are you for the snow season?

As you all know the season is here when our roads will turn to skating fields and the transport networks are crippled. last year was or should i say last winter season was very notorious to the entire nation. we witnessed some of the horrendous scenes in modern day history. In Scotland  if i can remember very well the roads were impassable in some areas and i remember the famous couple who were separated by the snow for over three weeks, they did not have the turkey together what a horrific event! Commuters were stranded in trains for days and motorists on the roads endured hours if not days of being stuck. The airports were shut for several days and travellers had to endure some of the most painful moments of their life.


With these scenes still too familiar with us, its intriguing how we too quickly forget and face life as normal and not learn from the lessons thrown at us. How prepared is the governments and borough councils to deal with such eventuality. Last season we witnessed how the councils were completely inadequate to deal with scale unleashed by mother nature. They run out of salt to gritter the roads and proper equipment to remove the thick ice from the roads to keep the businesses open, the school running and the elderly in our society not being adversely exposed. I hope someone will not have to loose their job because of lack of oversight to something quite obvious.

Elderly
Any way what about the common citizen? How prepared are we to face up to such eventuality hoping it will not be to the scale we witnessed in USA recently. May God forbid! To the elderly, you should ensure that you have steady supply of food and water in the cupboards, if you are leaving alone you might find it useful to have emergency contacts at hand and most importantly have a friend or family member contacts ready. Keep your mobile phone charged at all the time and listen for weather warning in the digital radio or television. Make sure you have the heating system in the house in good working condition so that it doesn't fail you when you need it the most. Have an alternative radiator heater in case the boiler fails you.  And please my advice to you is DO NOT MAKE UN NECESSARY JOURNEYS. To the neighbourhoods lets look after the frail and vulnerable.
Personal responsibility
Though i have specifically talked about the elderly, one might find some of the suggestions useful and the check list is actually not exhaustible. Lets use our common sense when we are dealing with some of these issues.  You do not need to find yourself in A&E with broken limbs or cuts and bruises because you did not follow simple Health and Safety rules while going about your daily business. But for precaution purposes its useful to keep a First Aid kit available especially if you have kids around.
Motorists
If you are a driver either personal or company, have you taken thought of what you might get your self into? Have you checked your safety kit to ensure that you are set for the road ahead? Simple items such as D-icer, torch, making sure your battery is not failing you at this time is critical. Other useful items such asshovel, a compressorsnow and ice gripswarning triangle are all very useful. AA have a winter kit which comes with selected items that you might find useful if you found yourself in circumstances.
At the moment the temperatures have dropped and you might need awindscreen cover to protect you from the morning madness with the frost.
Snapshots
Whereas the snow can adversely affect us, it brings some of the best scenery one can ever find beyond any human artistry. check the snow shots
The following pictures are from my phone hope you will like them.

MTV awards 2011????


I am not being funny but i don't really agree with some of these awards or celebrity parades that are all over the place. With all due respect to the organisers and the voters, why are we promoting weirdness and obscenity? Of all the people to win many awards that night was Lady Gaga! What's all about this name any way. I don't like her at all firstly because i think she is bizarre and extreme in her public behaviour and display. She comes across as someone with such darkened mind and the sort of things she does have no bounds whatsoever.

I am sorry but  what is there to be awarded in her music any way? She is not the best singer there is in the world? But i suppose the trend has been such that the more naked you can be and the more obscene one would get the more money one makes or should i say the more money we are willing to give them to keep us in an ecstasy mode. What is there in such behaviours that we have adorned and celebrated? The likes of Rihanna, Russell Brands, all this characters have shot to fame on the platform of loose behaviours. How much more shall we entertain the likes who are endeavouring to push the bounds of human dignity and integrity to unfathomable lengths?

What message are we sending to the generation of young people who are looking for icons and mentors to look up to?  If the idols of our days are the like who have found an easy way to the top through weird acts and darkened thoughts which are depraved to say the least, what hope is there for the young tucks? When will we celebrate the work of doctors and pilots and teachers and send a strong message to the young people that life is not easy and hard work pays? We have unfortunately robbed the young people of very important lessons of life.

I want my children to grow in a better place of dignity and respect to themselves and to others. Not having men running to the stage naked and we all jeer of how good he has done as we all saw in the awards in Belfast. I want my children to grow in a society that awards good behaviour and condemns what is out of the norms.  I want my children to have a society that encourages hard work and its rewards and away from the society that the media has created of tipping the balance from proper human behaviour and conduct.

Lets keep ourselves within the social bounds and protect that which has been passed down by our fathers who have gone before us!!!

Babies diapers pampers review and opinion





Someone must be wondering why on earth could someone decide to write about diapers? How i wish that i didnt have to say anything but someone has to say something. I am a parent and so whatever i am saying here has greatly affected me as i have struggled like any other parent to bring my children up.
Obviously there is no way of avoiding these goods when you have decided to venture in the field of children. Thank God for the genius man or woman who invented them. Without them i wonder what sort of a world we would be living in. I am talking about pampers as we all know them but am not ignorant that they come in different brands and names. For now let me use the name pampers.
I dont know how many of the parents who have realised how the prices have been soaring up all the time. I do remember a few years ago the price was relative to the market. I have witnessed how the trend has been going with shear amazement the price has been going up and a times the companies have been reducing the pieces in the packaging . I keep asking myself all the time why is there no one speaking out for the common people in the world today. I totally do understand we are in recession but for goodness sake what has gone wrong with the society. Is this not another example of profit guided mentality that has gripped our consciousness? What justification does any company present before the judge of sun,moon and stars.
Oh i know they will rise to quickly say that the cost of production has gone up and therefore the cost has to be passed on to the consumer. Who doesn't know that in many times this is not so? Some of these products, if not all of them, are manufactured in some third world country and the raw materials in many instances has not changed. It doesn't mean that the workers in those industries are paid any better than they used to be paid year ago! so what justification is there to be honest. Can someone help me  please?
cute blue eyes
Lets put this in context. Once you have a baby that baby will be using the diapers probably until 4years or even 5years depending on individual baby. On average the newborn will use about 6-8 pieces a day. obvioucly the number reduces as they grow older. Do you see that one will be tied into this purchasing for a long time. If you do the maths for 4 years how much does someone expect to spend on one child? What if you have twins or two or even three kids following each other? This is horrifying to imagine the burden on the shoulder of parents.
Hold on a mimute! You have not included the Babies Wipes on top? Three years ago the packaging of Pampers Babies Wipes was 72 pcs. If you go to the shop right now that number has signifcantly reduced to either 63pcs or 56pcs. This doesnt mean that the price has reduced. In any case the price has been rocketing by day. So how does these companies justify for these atrocities perpetrated to the consumers? Where is the Wachtdog to look into these activities. Is this not raw greed and the drive to make huge profits?
It may seem that am attacking Pampers only! The supermakets brought there own diaper brands and babies wipes and for introduction they were going cheaply. When the coffers are a bit empty they became an alternative. They soon realised that the market was good and there they are the prices started going up. This doesn't mean that there products are a better quality at all. I bet you that when we check them next year they will have reduced the pieces to make more profit. Profit! Profit! Profit! is the driving factor. Hay!!!! Can someone do something before these strong men have robbed us of our Babies food and clothing and i can see they are attacking the roof too!!!Don't forget that i have only mentioned  two items only. What about when you add Babies Toys, other bathroom necessities, their every day to day up-keep and all the costs associated. If you haven't won the Lottery or are not earning a six figure income i wonder how we do manage.
Come on lets face it! Who isn't affected by the credit crunch? I keep on asking myself, were the companies affected more than the common consumer? I have had Cameron say many a times that we are in this together'. I do struggle to find the reality of this statement at all. Are we surely together with these big companies and the supermarkets really? Hope this message sets a platform for dialogue and constructive criticism. thank you!!!

APPLE I Touch Generation


Many like me may be amazed by the way there has been a boom in the technology world of the 21st century or should i say the 22nd century. Everything seems so fast moving not even able to catch up with the advancement. some 20 years ago the word computer 
was purely limited to the offices and the very few who could be able to splash the cash and buy the Desktop. As far as i can remember these new gadgets were a talk in the villages where they were viewed to be high tech and only for the select few who had made it to the corporate levels.

To most people it may seem to be just yesterday and how quickly we forget these things. perhaps not so to those who grew in a prevailage homes nothing new was far to there reach. I saw my first computer closely when i was almost 20yrs old. By this time i had only started to see mobile phones with few people hear and there. i remember seeing my older sisters phone and thinking to myself, will i ever own one of these! i fancied the phone very much i do remember it was Siemens C35 and after some time she bought Siemens C45. These were amazing phones those days. Any way life has greatly moved on but perhaps have taken you back several years to recap on the good old days.

How many of us would have thought that we would be playing with Smart phones like toys in our hands? amazing gadgets that need no key pad because of the advancement to Touch Screen and only time will tell what's awaits us ahead. These Smart phones with capabilities so advance that they are almost overtaking the use of Laptops and Netbooks. Every other company wants to be the lead in this market with the latest advanced phone.

Thanks to Steve Jobs he introduced us to new heights with the iPhone. Through his leadership Apple company has soared to be the global leader in the global market far beyond Nokia which had dominated the world with the unique ring tone. Having mentioned Nokia, i know they have recently launched the Nokia Lumia 800 and according to the experts it will have a great impact in the market. I suppose its another added gadget out there for the enthusiasts who are willing to queue for hours or or even camping all nights to be the first to have them. I do wish them all the best.  Now we have the iPhone4s                iPad2  Samsung Galaxy S 11 and many others out there and i suppose the 30% of us who are actually using them properly particularly those in business and other fields which need them to have the gadget at hand have a great feel whereas the 70% of us are under using them may be for only making calls and browsing emails. Let me not forget to mention the latest of them all which is the Tablet. This is a another example of technology in high level. It will definitely a revolutionary  the world of computing.

I am quite sure that these gadgets are not cheap to come by as many would agree with me. That makes it very frustrating for many of us who can only admire these wonderful innovations but are far from our reach. It puts pressure on the young people, the enthusiasts of these gadgets which am sure has impacted on relationships with parents and peers as well. I hope people will be learn to be content with what they can afford. Even if you are looking for a iPad16Gb the cheapest in the market is about £300. The iPhone is going for probably £250. these are huge amounts of money and the way the global economy is on the down trend i wonder where guys do get money to spend. suppose the demand is there and there is no way anyone can be able to spot the technology from even advancing more and more. please dont forget to buy the iPhone screen protector and iPad protector you will thank me for remind you.

Now a days we are able to read books on the screen while on the go without having to break our backs with weighty books thanks to Kindle. I was checking its features on the Amazon website and i was mesmerized by how versatile this technology has offered to the world especially the new Kindle.   This is a wonderful product to keep in the bag especially for commuters that travel on trains, on coaches or on flights. 

I came across a beautiful Mp3 player which to me i think is a must have for those who love music on the go. Those who are engaged in sport and leisure activities such as running, those who attend gym and the cycle guys you will need to have this player which comes along with 8gb Sd card

I keep thinking all the time how life has been made so easy with the navigation tools at our disposal. Tomtom sat nav and others such us Garmin Nuvi  new edition has completely transformed our way of travel in this country and around the world. Not having to deal with the road maps and knowing how to read and interpret them to get oneself from point A-B is one of the greatest things that ever happened to this dot com generation. It takes the whole stress away because of the features such as route planner, link it to home and you could go anywhere and never worry of getting lost. 

These and many other gadgets have all gone the way of Touch screen, i call it technology at our finger tips. Isn't it amazing what we are able to do with less effort and great results and productivity thanks to the geniuses! We should celebrate these men and women who have brought us out of the dark ages. These are the guys that should be heroes and heroics of this age. Bravo!!
