Make Money Now Using Just Your Digital Camera

Making money using your digital images has never been easier. Microstock photography sites have now made it possible for just about anyone to earn money from their digital images.

Microstock photography allows users to sell their digital images for free. Users are encouraged to upload their digital images to a microstock site. Every time your image is downloaded by a registered user, you receive money. The amount you take home depends on the size and resolution of the image downloaded. iStockphoto, Dreamstime, Fotolia and Shutterstock are popular microstock sites.

Although the payout per picture is not that high, your earnings do add up. In fact, you can make thousands of dollars a month from selling many of their digital images.

Below are a few tips to get you on your way to making money through microstock photography.

Note 1: Image Quality is Important

A high end camera is not required to produce acceptable images. Any high resolution digital camera can do the job.

Note 2: Your Photos Will Be Reviewed 

Each individual image submitted to microstock sites will be reviewed. Therefore, it is important to analyze your own images before submission. Also, make sure to read all the image terms and requirements before submission. Images are sometimes rejected. Today, many of the prominent microstock photography sites have tutorials that you can follow to help you take fantastic images.

Note 3: Subject matter is important

Content does matter. Certain subject matters, such as business and food images are popular. However, images of family and flowers may not make the cut. Do some research and see what image types are downloaded the most. This will give you an idea of what sells and potentially what to focus on.

Also, images containing people may require you to complete a model release form. Please read the terms and conditions of the microstock site before making such submissions.

Note 4: Portfolio Development Takes Time 

To make a serious income from microstock sites, it is important to develop a portfolio containing a many high quality images. Also, make your images keyword rich. Relevant keywords will allow your images to appear more frequently in customer searches.

Also, submit your images to numerous microstock sites. This increases the probability of your images being downloaded.

With these notes in mind, you can be on your way to making serious money using only your digital camera!

Idea for blog

If you want to start blogging but you still do not have any idea, this is the right article for you. To drive people to your site you need to have contents that suit your readers.

1.Blogging about computer and technology:
-Most of the people that like to surf, usually acttracted to gain information about computer and technology. If you blog about these things, I am sure that your blog will attract a lot of traffic.
-However, you should be aware that the bad side is that most of the current articles that you write will not be relevant after few years later. This is common because technoloy moving so fast and changes happen frequently.

2.Blogging about food / places / vacation :
-Blogging about food seem to be boring however you need to remember the fact that food still remain the same all of the time. If you write about the nasi lemak you eat todak, after 10 years they will still some people that will search for "nasi lemak"
-What I want to say is, although the blog about food seems to drive less traffic than technology, however the contents are always relevant for lifetime. So blogging about food also is not a bad idea.

3.Below I state a list of blog that you can write as a starting platform:
-Game
-fasion
-celebrity
-sports (need to update frequently)

Besides, you should also aware of a few things before you start blogging:
1.Does your blog contents always relevant?
-If you blogging about sports but do not like to update, your content will not be relevant anymore and thus your site will have bad ranking in search engine.

2.How much your competitor is?
-Just my opinion, I think that having a less competitor is good. Why? Let say that I am writing about famous technology like handset. Maybe my content is good but I need to struggle so that it can reach high page ranking in search engine.

3.Do you prefer common visitor or not?
-If you like your site to have its certain die hard fan, make sure that your blog is specialise. This is because people always find something that specialise.
-If your blog is just like my blog, it's hard to find its loyal visitor. However, you can still depend on search engine.

Then, why I still blogging? There is a simple reason to it. I hope that I can improve my writing skills and and I want to improve my English. So why not I start blogging?? Right now I am trying to blog in English (and I think with a lot of grammar mistakes). So if any of you find grammar errors, I hope that you can correct it by giving comment.

Ha ha, maybe later my blog can be the source for students to learn English...

Got problem when installing vbgallery with vb3.7.3 ?

The most problem that probably occur when installing vbgallery is url problem.

The navbar link that supposed to point to your forum url is pointing to the gallery url.

-This thing actually occur because you use custom style instead of the original style.
-To solve this issue, you need to know that in which part of the custom template that the link appear? If it appear in the header part, then you need to go to the admincp >> vbgallery >> general setting.

Then you need to place the url that contain the pointing error inside the header section.

For example:
Your members adress supposed to be http://www.website.com/forum/members.php
However the navbar at vbgallery show it as http://www.website.com/gallery/member.php
So, what you need to do is enter "member.php" inside the header section at vbgallery general setting.

*However, you need to remember that if the link appears at the footer of your URL then you should place the link inside footer section.

5 Tips untuk hosting

Sekiranya anda baru pertama kali menghostingkan website, di sini saya senaraikan beberapa perkara yang perlu anda ketahui sebelum hostkan file anda dengan mana-mana hosting.

1.Saiz space yang diperuntukkan:
-Untuk website yang biasa, saiz 2 GB sudah mencukupi.
-Sekiranya anda bercadang meletakkan forum di website anda, saiz 4 atau 5 GB lebih sesuai memandangkan banyak data yang perlu disimpan.
-Sekiranya anda ingin menghost banyak laman dalam satu hosting, saiz yang lebih besar juga diperlukan.

2.Saiz bandwidth (monthly transfer):
-Saiz bandwidth merupakan perkara penting. Sekiranya bandwidth yang sedia ada oleh website anda telah habis digunakan, maka laman anda akan disuspend dan pelawat tidak dapat sampai ke laman anda.
-Sekiranya pengunjung anda biasa sahaja, bandwidth sebanyak 20GB sudah mencukupi.
-Sekiranya anda menghostkan forum dan laman anda mempunyai ramai pengunjung, 50GB bandwidth sudah memadai.

3.Masa uptime:
-Masa uptime ialah masa server yang anda hosting ke udara atau online. Sekiranya server tersebut down, bermakna pelawat tidak boleh memasuki laman tersebut.
-Perlu diingatkan bahawa sesetengah webhosting amat murah tetapi uptimenya begitu teruk dan boleh membuatkan anda kehilangan pengunjung.

4.Penggunaan phpmail atau sendmail:
-function phpmail() dan sendmail{} sering digunakan di laman web untuk menghantar emel. Sesetengah hosting seperti eternal solution tidak membenarkan penggunaan function ini bagi tujuan sekuriti. Akibatnya laman anda tidak boleh menghantar outgoing emel (dari dalam ke luar).
-sekiranya hosting anda tidak membenarkan penggunaan phpmail atau sendmail, maka anda terpaksa mengsetting sendiri emel anda dengan menggunakan smtp.

5.Support daripada hosting sendiri:
-Saya percaya ramai daripada anda yang kurang mahir dan akan menghadapi masalah. Jadi, pastikan hosting yang anda cari mempunyai sistem support yang mantap supaya anda akan diberikan bantuan dengan segera sekiranya bermasalah.

5 Web hosting pilihan:

www.namsahaz.com
1.Hosting dibayar mengikut saiz space yang dikehendaki:
-1MB bersamaan dengan RM0.06
-Sekiranya anda merasakan website anda tidak perlu terlampau besar, hosting ini menjadi pilihan kerana anda boleh membeli bermula dari 1 MB.
-Selain itu, anda juga boleh men top up nilai disk space anda pada bila-bila masa sekiranya tidak mencukupi.

2.unlimited bandwidth:
-Sungguhpun laman anda kecil, tidak mustahil untuk laman anda menjadi popular sekiranya laman anda dipenuhi dengan informasi yang berguna.
-Ketika itu, mempunyai bandwidth yang kecil merupakan masalah besar. Dengan menghostkan file anda di hosting ini, anda tidak perlu risau lagi isu bandwidth.

www.ipserverone.com
-Tahukah anda forum putera.com dan lowyat.net yang begitu terkenal di Malaysia? Di ipserverone lah forum-forum tersebut di hostingkan.
-Kelajuan forum-forum tersebut beroperasi jelas menunjukkan kelancaran hosting itu sendiri. (kelajuan turut bergantung kepada jenis hosting yang anda beli samada shared, semi-dedicated atau dedicated)

www.exabytes.com
-antara laman komuniti yang unik iaitu www.ehoza.com.my menggunakan hosting ini.
-exabytes mendapat title sebagai hosting nombor satu di Malaysia.
-kebanyakan pelanggan juga memuji exabytes kerana support mereka yang first class.

www.hostpack.net
-Hosting ini merupakan hosting termurah di Malaysia. Dengan RM50 anda boleh mendapat 5GB disk space dan 50GB data transfer.
-Walaubagaimanapun, hosting ini kurang diminati kerana dihost pada sever US dan bukannya Malaysia.
-Selain itu, uptimenya juga kurang mantap.
-Tetapi sekiranya anda baru hendak mencuba mencari hosting, anda boleh mencuba dahulu di sini kerana anda boleh menganggap hosting di sini sebagai bahan ujian. Sekiranya anda merasakan hosting ini kekurangan sesuatu, anda tidak akan rasa kerugian kerana hanya RM50 yang dilaburkan.

www.000webhost.com
-anda tidak perlu membayar untuk host di sini kerana ini ialah hosting percuma
-tidak seperti kebanyakan hosting percuma yang lain, hosting ini bebas daripada iklan-iklan penaja.
-walaubagaimanapun, anda hanya 250MB disk space diberi kepada anda.
-tambahan pula, anda hanya diberi 1 addon domain; bermakna hanya satu domain yang boleh digunakan pada hosting tersebut untuk setiap account.
-diingatkan, ini hosting percuma. Ini bermakna mereka berhak membuang file atau account anda pada bila-bila masa sahaja.

Trap the wandering "only"

If "only" wanders into the wrong position, confusion often follows. Theoretically, the whole meaning of a sentence changes if you accidentally put "only" in the wrong spot.
Only the new manual confused the PA. (The old one didn't confuse her.)
The new manual only confused the PA. (It didn't spoil her day.)
The new manual confused only the PA. (It didn't confuse other staff.)
The new manual confused the only PA. (There was only one PA.)
Each sentence above is grammatically correct and each has a different meaning. The problem is, people can take the wrong meaning very easily.

When speaking, your emphasis and tone of voice shows exactly what you mean by "only" - regardless of word order. Therefore in conversation, it doesn't matter if "only" is in the "wrong" position. Indeed, the correct version often sounds klunky when you say it aloud.

However, when the same sentence is written, suddenly the position of "only" can change the whole meaning. There is no tone of voice on the page. But readers often imagine a certain tone of voice in their mind, and that can override the grammatical meaning of the sentence.

You get no brownie points for being grammatically correct if people persist in misunderstanding. If you have the slightest doubt, use the easy fix.
EASY FIX
Nine times out of ten you can simply remove the word "only". The meaning will still be clear and you save time.

The new manual confused the PA.
Other wandering adverbs can also be troublesome, e.g. "just", "still" and "even". Again, the simplest solution is to remove the word from the sentence.


Ha ha... selama ni perkataan "only" sering memeningkan kepala aku. Tak tahu nak letak macam mana dalam ayat. Tapi setelah google tadi terjumpa juga satu artikel tentang penggunaan "only" ni. Untuk makluman lanjut, boleh pergi ke http://www.webpagecontent.com/arc_archive/138/5/ .
