SEO giants have long been stressing about the importance of building inbound links through web directories. Submitting your site to good and high-PR directories is one way of getting quality links that are highly valued by the search engines. Web directories are mainly human edited, thus a website must pass a strict criteria to get listed, hence quality links are only listed. These links are search engine friendly. Since they are organized in highly focused categories making them an invaluable resource for search engines to measure the quality and the relevance of a website.

Web directories are, thus, important not because they give direct referral traffic, but because they are given importance by the search engines to qualify and rank web pages and determine their relevance.

However, the tedious job of manually submitting your website to high-ranked directories prevents most webmasters to utilize them. Most of directories require you to sign up prior to adding links as their way of preventing spam submissions. So, imagine how many sign up forms you have to fill to list your websites. Just the thought of it is already tiring and takes a hell lot of time!

Good thing there are available tools that can help webmasters to add their links to these directories. One of the great one I’ve tried is Directory Submitter. A great video tutorial was presented by Brad Callen, himself, the great man behind Directory Submitter is available here. It will teach you how to use Directory Submitter.

The way your write and the way your post looks like adds attraction to your readers to stick to your blog. There are many ways that you can enhance your blog posts.

1. Pictures. Adding pictures relevant to or descriptive of your blog post is one of the proven ways to attract readers, make them stay and read your posts further.

There are several options you have to add images to your posts. You can either manually search for photos then post the image to your blog (what you call hot linking) or upload it directly to your website; add your hosted images from image-hosting websites like Photobucket, ImagesHack, and the like; and use an amazing plugin for WordPress users called Photodropper.

2. Relevant links. Adding relevant links will serve as reference or source of your posts. This adds credibility to you as a writer. Furthermore, you build camaraderie among your fellow bloggers for giving them link love.

3. Articles. Similar with giving relevant links, citing articles serve as a reference for your post.

4. Tags. A tag is a keyword used to describe the topic of a blog post. This serves importance in search engine optimization, categorization of posts, and on pinging Technorati, Google Search, Pingshot, and similar sites.

For you to integrate these “enhancers” to your posts, you have to be resourceful. Good thing that a new web 2.0 startup was created to make it easier for bloggers to add relevant links, articles, pictures and tags to their posts.

But many people worry about the stability of these sites. They may worry about how do these free hosts exist without the members paying? Simple. Some free hosts offer an ad-supported plan, which means that you agree to display their banner in the form of text link ads such as Google Adsense, or they offer plans that requires you to make a certain number of posts for a given plan. You may wonder how do they make money out of those posts. The discussions created by the members will show relevant ads for their text-link ads and it will also reflect the activity of the forum, which serves as an attractant for more members, more traffic, more earnings. Some advertisers also opt to advertise their products in these sites because they are well-visited.

Others worry about the credibility of the site, if it’s a scam or not, and how long will it stay. As long as these sites get members, then they will exist. Some worries about the security of these sites. These are just few worries that makes webmasters stay away from these sites. But there are many who take risks, and that includes me. This blog has been hosted for more than 4 months by Ejam Hosting and so far, I am satisfied with this free host. I experience few downtimes and the support has been great.

What I do to maintain my hosted account and take advantage of this great free service?

1. I always backup my database. This should be your top most priority. Backing up your database can be as frequent as after every post, daily or thrice weekly.

2. I always visit my host’s website to get me updated for scheduled downtimes, for hacker threats, and for the latest news from my host’s administrator.

3. I allot a time to post in the forums to maintain my account. Many web hosts require activity of the members.

4. I avoid one-liner response to the topics posted so I wouldn’t be accused of spamming to get free hosting.

5. I click on the ads. My web host uses Adsense revenues to pay for the server and other expenses.

6. I recommend my hosts to some friends or link them. Usually, when I put a link I always emphasize the “free” word. This attracts more members to my hosts. Putting a link is also showing my appreciation to their great service. I also post about them in webmasters’ forums.

7. Before I sign up to a free hosting site, I evaluate the host first. I look for the testimonial section to see the members’ reactions about the service. I also go to a hosting review site such as Host4Free to see for the reviews. I also check for the uptime stats of the server.

Bottom line is, using this free service is a great opportunity, you only have to be cautious to avoid database loss.

1. Tech-Recipes teaches us some “Hacks to Beat Rapidshare Download Limits and Waiting Time“. The hacks provide tips on how to bypass the waiting time by altering your IP address and using a proxy service.

2. Use Rapidshare tools. Tools provide some additional features like managing the downloads, changing proxies, simultanious downloads by using more than one proxy and much more.

3. MyDigitalLife provides a step-by-step instructions on how to use CMS The Grabber, another Rapidshare tool which has the abilities to bypass RapidShare limitations by using proxy servers, to start downloading from RapidShare immediately, and to download multiple files simultaneously.

4. TiX Now! is Firefox add-on which can stop waiting timer of Rapidshare. Install the extension and click on the T icon in status bar at the right-bottom corner. Direct-link will be saved to your clipboard or it can stop the waiting-timer. There is a need for a user guide though to fully understand how this extension works. Unfortunately, the addon author has not yet come up with it.

5. Zepy.net found an alternative way to “Bypass Rapidshare Dowload Limit without Software“.

6. Using Bookmarklet in IE as posted by Tech-Buzz.net:

1. Open IE
2. Right Click On This Link
3. Select Add to Favorites
4. Select Yes to the warning that the bookmark may be unsafe.
5. Name it “RapidShare No Wait”
6. Click on the Links folder (if you want to display it in your IE toolbar)
7. Click OK, (You may need to close and reopen IE to see it )
8. Goto rapidshare and click the bookmarklet when you are forced to wait

And several other ways available in the internet. Just Google it.

These greetings are much better if expressed in Tagalog because it brings more sincerity than the usual English-written comments in my humble opinion.  Also, funny friendster comment graphics are a lot more humorous or funny if in Tagalog.

I’ve been looking for Tagalog Friendster comment graphic codes, greetings, funny comments, and quotes to send out to my friends during special occasions or even for everyday greetings.  I found Pinoy Disenyo.net or Pinoy Comments.com which offers Tagalog Friendster comment codes.

getmooh is a free automated call back service.

I found a good website, called Get Me Out of Here that can help you get out of a situation where you really need to escape, say a boring date perhaps.  Get Me Out of Here is a free automated callback service that will automatically call you on your phone, at your pre-specified time and playing you a recording which will either instruct you on what to say to elude your tormentor(s), or which will simply give a convincing sense of you being on an important call.

However, you can also use the service to turn things otherwise, like sending a birthday message to a friend, or sending sweet nothings to a date.

Signing up is free but your network provider may charge you for every call generated.
