Let me paint a familiar picture for you that I am sure you have seen almost every morning. You start your day bright and early and log on to your computer. Probably the first thing you are going to do is check your email. You go through each email, responding where necessary, but you have to skip over some and throw some others in the trash. Why, because your email inbox is full of spam alongside your wanted email. Put simply your email spam protection has failed at its prime duty, to protect your inbox from spam.

So, this is what has happened every day for the last 5 years. It was not until I stumbled across wumber that this routine changed, for the best!

What is wumber?

wumber is a way of totally getting rid of spam! It will encode the recipient and sender of an email into a unique email address encoding it so the email address can only be used by the recipient. It doesn’t even matter if they give the email address to someone else because it won’t work for them. Simple!

How does this help you?

It helps you in a number of ways! Your real email address is protected and the specially encoded wumber which is created seamlessly from your desktop email application or iPhone can have different rules applied. This means that you will always have complete control of the rules that you give this new unique email.

Imagine you go to sign up or order something from an online retail. Weeks later you start getting annoying emails from them to the point where you consider it spam. One of the best things about a wumber is that you can change the rules without the person that has your email address knowing about it. You all of a sudden change the rules and BAM, no more annoying spam emails from that company. If they are just sending too many emails, simply put a limit on the number of emails you are prepared to accept each day, week, month or whatever period you choose.

Remember, wumber also has a unique feature that makes your email address completely useless if they give it to someone else. This makes list selling completely fruitless for these companies and you are spam free!

wumber is free to join and it’s free for everyone to use. I would highly suggest you go give it a try. You can read more or join at https://www.wumber.com or you can check out all the stories of wumber users together with tips and hints for protecting your privacy and cutting out the spam at their Facebook page or take a look at the blog.

It is not easy locating a good domain name given the numerous domain search options available. Generally, the type of domain name you choose may play a very important role in search engine ranking of your website. Therefore, learning how to choose the correct domain name is of utmost importance. Generally, here are some of the basic rules to follow when buying a domain name.

  • “.com” is Always the Best Option

 

The “.com” domain name is by far the most commonly used and searchable domain. This extension becomes even more important if you’re setting up a business website because “.com” domain has more credibility and professionalism than other domain extensions such as “.biz”, “.net” etc. furthermore, your customers are more likely to forget your extension if it is something other than the “.com”. For instance if your extension is www.yoursite.net, some customers are likely to forget and type www.yoursite.com instead.

  • The Shorter the Better

 

The rule of the thumb is: do not use a domain name that is more than 8 characters if you can help it. People are generally lazy, so don’t force them to type a whole novel in the name of searching for a domain. Keep it short and simple to remember.

  • Choose Keyword Rich Domain

 

Your domain name should be relevant to the type of goods, services, and type of information your site is about. Choosing a relevant and keyword rich domain will greatly boost your chances of being found in the search engine by the right customers. Don’t choose a domain name like “my-shoes.com” when you blog is about financial management.

  • Avoid Hyphens

 

It is true that some hyphenated domain names have had massive successes, but this is quite risky. Especially if your domain name has more than two words; as a result, customers tend to forget where the hyphen was. Moreover, hyphenated domain names are more likely to lose traffic to similar domain names without hyphens.  For instance; www.your-name.com is more likely to lose traffic to www.yourname.com. Most customers view hyphenated domain names as a cheap substitute to the non-hyphenated domain name.

  • Grab other extensions (if available)

 

If you have already registered your “.com” domain extension, grab other extensions as well to monopolize the domain name. For instance; register www.yourname.com as well as other extensions like www.yourname.net, www.yourname.org, www.yourname.biz, and www.yourname.mob. However, this is not compulsory if you are satisfied with a single domain name. Moreover, you should only do this if you are lucky to find the perfect domain name such as a single word domain name that is also relevant to your business.

  • Domains with Identity

 

If you want to get started quickly and hit the ground running, you can buy brandable domain names from websites like Brand Arrows with a Logo and Colour scheme.

Five Useful Tips to Help You Attract More Readers to Your Blog

Optimizing the content of your blog is essential if you want to engage your readers and attract new ones. However not all bloggers know how to take advantage of the benefits of a blog, especially from an SEO perspective – in other words, making it as best as possible for search engine optimization so people actually find the content via Google, Bing, and Yahoo.  Here are five tips to help you publish content online that has more chance of being found, read, and shared.

Write on Interesting Topics That People Want to Read

It’s not good writing about the evolution of the micro-pig if nobody wants to read it. Take a look on Google for other blogs in your area of interest and see what subject they are covering.  You can then use the Google Adwords tool to search for keywords relating to a topic.  The tool will show you how many people are searching for your subject each month, including the competitiveness of the term.  This will give you a great start and an idea on what to publish.

Create a Catchy and Compelling Title

The first element that potential readers will see in the Google search results, is your article’s title.  For this reason it should be catchy and invite your readers to want to click through to find out more. Make it short and concise still, as titles like this will then appear when shared on Facebook and Twitter, letting even more potential readers see what your blog is about, before hopefully clicking.

Interact With Your Readers

It is very important to create a bond with your readers so they feel involved and will continue to come back to your blog. To do this, interact with them by asking questions at the end of your articles asking them what they think, or posing a question in the comment section.

Don’t Be Afraid to Ask for SEO Help

Most bloggers are not IT specialists.  There are many things that a blogger can do though in terms of optimising their website to make it rank better.  If your blog is starting to become popular and is making you money then it could be a good time to enlist the services of a search engine optimisation company (you can see an example of one in that link).  Good SEO companies will help you rank better by helping you to build relevant links back to the blog, looking at your website code, and other factors design to help your blog content be listed higher up in the rankings.

Share Your Content on Social Networks

If you haven’t already, make sure you sign up to the main social networks of Twitter, Facebook, and Google Plus and then link those accounts back to your blog.  When you publish a new blog post make sure you share it with your subscribers who may in turn share it again, thus increasing your blog visits.
