Busy… Busy… Busy with finding lot of dofollow with CommentLuv blogs lately. Without NoDoFollow Firefox add-on, my life will be hard. You need to view the source code of the links one by one without the help of this add-on. By looking at the code, if you find rel=”nofollow”, then the link is not being followed. Therefore, no Google PageRank link juice will be passing to that website. Just imaging that you need to see the source code the manual way. Lot of time will be wasted by highlighting the link, right click, and click on view selection source. Remember that you need to do so on every blog.


NoDoFollow in action

There are 2 colour of links when you enable NoDoFollow Firefox add-on. Purple colour links are dofollow while pink colour links are nofollow. So I cut short lot of work with this little simple add-on. I am on this colour mode for few days. And will be in the coming days too. Did you have this NoDoFollow installed at your Firefox? If no, grab yours now – link.

How to get traffic to my website for free? This is a question that being asked by many of us including me. I have been blogging for almost 3 years. What have I done to increase my blog traffic? Well in short, I took the slow and steady move. Being as an application developer in MNC, I blog for part time only. Therefore, I do not have time that most professional bloggers have. However, it does not stop me from blogging professionally.

JayceOoi_Traffic_Sources
JayceOoi.com traffic sources on November 2009

JayceOoi.com is the first blog (I called it website for last 2 years as I did not want to admit that it is a blog) that I have. And then PrettyGirl2u.com and spBlogger.com. All of them have traffic from search engines for free. I am not going to discuss on every single step here, just high level as most of us know to do so already.

Things that I do to get traffic to my website for free…

  1. Make my website a search engine optimized (SEO) website.
  2. Comment at others’ blog.
  3. Active at famous forums.
  4. Don’t stop learning new stuff

Search engines love SEO websites. You will get lot of traffic there. All you need to do ~ get lot of incoming links as you can. Personally, I don’t blog purposely for search engine. There are some who do so in order to make money online. And it is proven that it work. I would like to have more direct traffic. Why? This mean that your blog is informative and people are willing to visit again. And indirectly, it will bring more incoming links too. Finally, I always keep this in mind.

Write good content, do proper marketing == money money traffic traffic come. :D

Intel is being sued again… Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued Intel finally. I expected this day to come. Just not so soon. As expected too, INTC stock price dropped while AMD and NVDA stocks price went up…

INTC_AMD_NVDA_2009-12-19
INTC, AMD and NVDA performance from 15th to 18th December 2009

What FTC wants (taken from AnandTech):

  1. For Intel to stop doing all of the things mentioned above.
  2. Intel cannot require OEMs to purchase only Intel CPUs and GPUs, purchase them in specific quantities, or to not purchase competitors GPUs and CPUs. This is effectively a stab at the rebates Intel has been offering for bulk purchasing, and the advertising help Intel has been offering to bulk purchasers.
  3. To stop prioritizing CPU shipments to loyal OEMs.
  4. To stop withholding technical support from disloyal OEMs.
  5. For Intel to be disallowed from producing/distributing any software or hardware that unreasonably excludes or inhibits the performance of competitors’ GPUs and CPUs.
  6. To stop selling things below cost. The FTC is defining this as being the average variable cost plus a “contribution to Intel’s fixed sunk costs in an appropriate multiple of that average variable cost.”
  7. For Intel to do a few different things about the versions of their compiler that put AMD at a disadvantage (which the FTC is calling the Defective Compiler): offer a substitute compiler to customers for free that is not a Defective Compiler, or to compensate customers in switching to another compiler, to provide notice to software buyers of products compiled using the Defective Compiler that they may need to replace their software.
  8. To stop Intel from making misleading statements.
  9. To prevent Intel from coercing benchmark organizations into adopting misleading benchmarks.
  10. For Intel to license the QPI and DMI buses to 3rd party chipset manufacturers.
  11. For Intel to not block the Global Foundries deal (AMD and Intel already settled this) or any similar deal that VIA might make.
  12. For Intel to stop badmouthing competing products unless they have solid scientific evidence.
  13. For Intel to foot the bill for the independent organization that will monitor this.

FTC helps Nvidia a lots. If all of the above does happen, Nvidia will have its chipset department running again. Did you see any Nvidia powered Core i5 or i7 motherboard lately? Nope. And you won’t need to use underpowered netbook with Intel chipset again. And wait for Nvidia ION platform 2 now. ;)
