How not to?

This is my first and last post that is not about How not to do something. I have got one more week and then I will be saying all my blogs Goodbye. I am too helpless.

Last month, my internet bill was Rs. 1300 and this month it will be near Rs. 900. Last time, I got a clear warning that my connection will be cut off if the bill goes above Rs. 500 next time. And I know it will. Next week, bill will arrive and my connection will be cut off. Now, I have just one hope left.

That ray of hope is you. First, let me make clear that by help, I do not mean leaving comments on my blog or clicking the ads. Just mail my father by clicking here. This is no ad. It will just open your e-mail client. So, if you want to help me, just mail him writing anything you like about my blog and asking him to let me blog. That’s all. Thanks for your help.

Next week, you will see usual three posts and after that Goodbye!

Intelligent placement of ads is an art and you should learn this art fast if you want to monetise your blog. You have read numerous articles about placing ads intelligently but have you ever read before about placing ads badly? No! Then, are you interested? Read on.

Content between Ads!
Place the content between lot of ads. This is the most common mistake people do. Consider a new blogger, excited about some money from his blog, he places ads all over the blog to discover that instead of any earnings, his traffic has gone down. People will never come back again if they do not find some useful content. Ads can prove a content killer if there are more ads than the content. Placement of content should be clear before you place ads. The content should be in " the first fold " that is above the half part of screen. Never make people scroll to read the title. However, this is not a thumb rule. If the page title/header is something big with a picture, content may go down as on this blog. Its not like I have not learnt this lesson. At the start, I had placed a lot of ads. The result was very less average time on site. Now it has increased by 200% after removing the excess ads.

No Ads on top
An ad top can get some good click through rate to you. If you are thinking this, shame on you. Ads like are 760 X 90 and 480 X 60 are not OK. Go ahead and place a big rectangle ad on the top. It will drive people away from site for sure. Try to place a small ad or adsense for search if you are registered with adsense at top. Link units are best for top. They do not take much space and as they present a page full of related ads, probability of a reader clicking there is pretty good.

Place one at bottom of a long page
It consists of two steps. First prepare a long web page. Second, place a contextual ad at the bottom. Remember, an ad the end of a long page is equal to no ad at all. Try to keep the page short. First, it will decrease the load time for your page although that does not matter much in this Broadband age, and second, it will give you some extra ad space at the bottom and this can increase the click through rate as reader will see the ad after the content and if he finds something interesting about the content there, he will click.

Sometimes essay is good but it is not impressive. I am talking about the "full of information" articles that have lot of data but do not make right impression because of the poor arrangement. How to write an essay that has information but is not impressive? Do not think so much! Why am I sitting here writing all this? To tell you all this! Read on.

Forget about Unity
The first and most important principle not to be observed in writing an essay is Unity. Do not care about giving every head, every sub-head its own paragraph. Keep the paragraphs completely random and mix the content. Remember, if the reader finds out the idea behind your content in less than 10 seconds, your bad essay is a complete failure at failing!

Play (Badly) with Order
The second principle to forget is Order.Write the events without considering their happening sequence. Write death date first, then the date of marriage, and at last birth date. This will increase the overall badness of your article.

Be Monotonous
Forget about the variety and be monotonous. Keep the sentence construction same throughout the essay and make the paragraphs of same length.
