Firefox is preparing to launch Firefox 3 and with this occasion they are also trying to set a world record for downloads in one day. Because I am a user of Firefox I “pledged” to download Firefox 3 in the day they will decide to release it. I have nothing to earn from this, it’s only for fun and maybe helping to set a world record.
Fun or not fun this is a great and unique way to launch a software and I suppose Firefox is getting a lot publicity.
Friend Connect it’s probably the newest service offer by Google and it can be used for improving websites, actually for improving traffic for the websites. This description makes pretty easy to understand what Friend Connect can do: “If your site is not enough social, Friend Connect will add to your site social features”.
With a lot of features to add on websites Friend Connect makes them interactive, of course I am talking about sites that are not so “socialized”. Using Friend Connect visitors of websites can interact with each other, write reviews and share photos related to the site they are visiting.
More features of the Friend Connect service can be seen in this video…
There are no tricks and no catches, Register.com it’s offering free domains for new customers. You don’t need to purchase anything else like hosting or other domains, you just register a domain and the first year you don’t pay any fees. This offer is limited and you can only purchase one domain per account.
To get your free domain go here and complete all the steps, if you are asked to add anything else to your order, don’t do it. You will have a free domain registered for a year, after a year you will have to pay the renew fee $34.99 but in my opinion is better to transfer your domain to an other registrar for the usual fee $7-8.
Even that many people know that you can have a steady income from Google AdSense if do it right and make decent website there are also a lot of people that are trying to scam the AdSense system and increase their earnings by tricking people to click their ads. Of course there are the obvious stupid cheaters which sites look like: “Please click my ads in order to keep this site running”, “Please visit our sponsors”, etc. and there are the other cheaters that find different more clever ways to trick people.
I have found such a cheater who have a complex system for that and I suppose he put some work in to this trick. He signed up for an online jobs site as a company and he is “trying” to find employees for its so called company. He is looking for someone that will do “online monetization”. Until here all things are good but on his profile there is a link on which people suppose to find more details about the job. You can see the profile I am talking about in the first image (click on it for a larger view).
Once you are on the site it’s easy, you can find 3 chapters that will help you understand that job, everything is nice for a normal internet user which doesn’t understand very well the things with ads and AdSense earnings but for a webmaster it’s a surprise, all those 3 chapters are AdSense ads units. You can see what I am talking about in the left image, 3 ads units, no content, a thing that is not really liked by Google.
Anyway even if the website has no content he is misleading visitors, a thing that breaks the AdSense TOS.
I only noticed this scammer on one online jobs site by mistake and I didn’t searched on other sites but imagine how many people are trying to get a job and how many would click his ads. I assume that he have some good earnings from AdSense, well until now. I have reported this to the ejobs site and also to AdSense and I hope they will to something about this.
Anyway my point is that no matter what a complex trick you have discovered you shouldn’t try to trick systems like AdSense or others because in one way or an other you will be caught and maybe support the consequences. Do it right and you will be able to have a decent online income.
