Key Factors to Build A Successful Adsense Income Blog

   

Google Adsense is still the #1 revenue sharing network that many bloggers can earn a living with. There are no other best alternatives to Google Adsense in the PPC industry. That is why most of big bloggers like Quick Online Tips are still placing adsense on this blog.


However, not many publishers can earn much from Google Adsense even though they are good at marketing or SEO. Where are the main reasons? Yes, there are many factors that affect your adsense earnings that you might have missed.
Here are some key factors that can help you build a successful adsense income blog:


1. Targeted Traffic

Yes, traffic does matter and you will have to drive a huge amount of traffic to your sites in order to make Google AdSense worth your time and effort.  There are many ways to drive traffic to your blog in order to increase your adsense earning. Commenting or guest blogging is also a great way to get your blog much exposed to the public. You should do this on regular basis to maintain high volume of traffic.

If you are good at SEO or keywords analysis, you know what to do to drive more organic traffic to your blogs. But, you should keep an eye on the top trending keywords or at least high paying keywords. You can use Google Keywords Tool to see how much a keyword is bid by advertisers.

Another thing you should consider is to create as many sites on different topics as you can. They should not be autoblogs but real sites with efforts. Several sites are always better than one site.

2. High paying niches

The highest paying niche is also another factor for AdSense success. If all of your sites focus on low paying keywords, your income is very low. You should think about other sources of income like affiliate marketing.

With only 5 cents per click and 200 clicks per month, can you live on? I do not think so. That is why you need to think about highest paying niches that have higher bid from advertisers. You can easily do this by using Google Keywords Tool to research.

3. Right Ad units placement

Many bloggers would like to save space for other things and move Adsense ads down to the bottom of the page or somewhere that is hard to draw attention of readers. It is a big mistake as no one can click on your ads if they do not see it.
However, placing too many ads on a page that cannot get your contents distinguished, can lead to invalid clicks and your account is in danger of termination too. Therefore, be creative in placing your Adsense ads in appropriate ways.

4. Fresh content

Do not write about what people have mentioned many times. If your blog ranking is low, duplication of topic or content will not help you rank higher in SERPs.
So, choosing a new and fresh content to write about is a smart approach. This will help your content stand out in the crowded niche.

5. Your invested time

If you are thinking about something like autoblogs or autopilot models, my advice is that you should quit making money online with Adsense this way. Your account can sooner or later be disabled for duplicate contents.
The most important success factor for AdSense is how much time and effort you are willing to put into it. The less time you put into it, the less success you will have. The more you put into it, the more success you have!.

6. Using Adsense Multiple Palettes

If your readers are returning ones and Adsense ads are too familiar with them, try to refresh their mind by using different ad units or choosing the multiple colour palettes.
Your adsense ads will change whenever readers open new posts or refresh the pages. The ads new colour will draw more attention from readers too. And, your Adsense ads will likely get more clicks.

7. Listen to Google suggestions

Google usually shares great tips with its publisher either on its blog or forum. You should pay attention to their advice to optimize your Adsense revenue. There are many great tips shared recently and many bloggers reported that they have improved their earnings from Google’s suggestions. Why not you?

If you are serious about making money online with Google Adsense, you should work hard and pay attention to 7 key factors that can help you build a successful Adsense income blog.

Types of Smart phone Displays Touchscreen

   

There are many different types of displays / touchscreens available across the range of smartphones and it is important that we know about them before buying one. Over last one year smartphones with large smartphone displays and touchscreens have really become popular. In this post we explain different types of displays and touchscreens and their pros and cons.


TFT LCD

TFT stands for Thin Film Transistor technology. TFT LCDs are the most common type of display units used across mobile phones. TFT LCD offer better image quality and higher resolutions compared to earlier generation LCD displays but their limitation lies in narrow viewing angles and poor visibility in direct light or sunlight.
Large TFT displays consume more power and hence are not battery friendly. But since these are cheaper to manufacture these are found on budget phones, feature phones and lower end smartphones.

IPS-LCD


IPS stands for In-Place Switching. If you compare TFT vs IPS, then IPS LCDs are superior to normal TFT LCD displays with wider viewing angles and lower power consumption which leads to a much improved battery life. IPS-LCDs are costlier than normal TFT LCD and hence are found only on higher end smartphones. A higher resolution (640 x 960 pixels) version of IPS LCD is used in Apple iPhone 4 and is called Retina Display because of its brilliant picture quality.

WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal Which One is Best and Why?

   


Discussion of WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal it is essential to leave your personal preference and experience behind you, and discuss the pros and cons of each dispassionately and objectively. Many people are quick to offer subjective opinions simply because they may be familiar with WordPress, but not with either Drupal or Joomla.



All three are CMS systems with their own strengths and weaknesses, and which you select for your project will very likely be influenced by your past experience of any of these and the type and scale of your development. Here are some comparisons between WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal that might help you decide which you are best to use for your own project.
There are many ways to compare these three options, and here we shall simply list the advantages and disadvantages of each, and then comment on which CMS system is best for each type of project.

WORDPRESS

We start with WordPress because it has a simple interface and also enables fairly simple customization by means of the many templates and plugins that are available online – many of them free to use.

WordPress CMS: Pros

  • Very simple to change themes: thousands of templates are available online, either commercially or free, and it is easy to switch between them.
  • Plugins are available for just about everything you can think of and are not difficult to use.
  • WordPress is easy to use by developers and by website owners, and is not restricted to blogging. Due to its coding, themes and plugins, WordPress sites need not look like blogs, but have ‘blogability’ whenever required.
  • Most themes are easy to edit and customize, although not all are well coded and some might not be customizable by any but professional developers.
  • This CMS system has a massive following, and a very large community of developers using it and continually creating and publishing new themes and plugins to improve its functionality.

WordPress CMS: Cons

  • Because themes and plugins are designed both by commercial developers and amateurs, many of them are faulty. They not only look bad, but faulty plugins can ruin your website’s performance and its functionality.
  • Many themes are difficult to customize, and also make it next to impossible to change themes without losing your existing content. That is contrary to how a ‘content management system’ should operate.
  • The code is not as strong as that of Drupal, but better than Joomla! However, due to its large community and very able developers, WordPress is continuously improving in the respect – Joomla does not seem to be doing the same.
  • There are too many upgrades issued in order to introduce security updates. Upgrades are not always compatible with your existing plugins.

JOOMLA/MAMBO

In the WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal comparison, WordPress is easier to use than Drupal or Joomla. You also get better forum support with WordPress. However, Joomla has its advantages, one of which is security that will be discussed later. Joomla is an offshoot of the Mambo CMS, formed in 2005 by Mambo developers who decided to create their own CMS system. Since Joomla can generally do what Mambo does and a lot more, we shall focus on Joomla here. Incidentally, Joomla is Swahili for ‘all together.’

Joomla CMS: Pros

  • If you prefer static pages to a blog presentation, then Joomla scores over WordPress. Although it can be use for blogging, that is not its prime purpose.
  • Its menu system is very good and easy to use and modify.
  • Joomla has excellent integrated community and membership functionality.

Joomla CMS: Cons

  • It is very difficult to get a Joomla site not to look like one: it is difficult to theme to your preferences and the majority of plugins that actually do anything cost money.
  • The core coding is not elegant, and it is not easy to modify if you have an issue. Even just posting an article on your blog or website takes a bit of doing since the interface is not the same WYSIWYG as WordPress offers – Drupal is complicated, but not as much as Joomla is.
  • The performance of the website is not as smooth as that of WordPress or Drupal, but the system is under constant development so hopefully this problem will be resolved.
  • The blog, while functional is not nearly as strong as WordPress and the latter is preferred for those whose primary use would be blogging.
Joomla is generally rated below WordPress for almost all applications, but better for security (though not as good as Drupal!) Most developers would rather not use Joomla, unless their existing architecture is already based upon this CMS system. However, Joomla has its adherents that will use nothing else – and this is a personal review.

DRUPAL

Drupal is regarded by many as the Rolls Royce of popular CMS software, but it is not perfect and is not as easy to use as WordPress by those that are not developers. While WordPress is practically turnkey, Drupal requires developer knowledge. It shines above Joomla and WordPress for breadth of application and purity of coding.

Drupal CMS: Pros

  • The main positive aspect of Drupal is its extremely clean code. It is cleaner for developers to use in comparison to Joomla.
  • There are many more coders available that you can use to code your application – many of these of a very high quality because the best coders flock to Drupal rather than Joomla or WordPress.
  • Since Drupal 7, the CMS has become very user friendly and not just the domain of expert coders. The introduction of modules, including Views, Webform and Panels, has enabled end-users to create their own websites.
  • The CMS system has a fairly large development community committed to helping improve it. As these developers come across problems with the system, they solve them and then tend to share their work with others.

Drupal CMS: Cons

  • Still not as user friendly as WordPress, although future developments should improve this aspect of Drupal.
  • It has fewer developers than WordPress, with a resultant higher cost to use their services.
  • There are few plugins for Drupal that can ‘plug in and go’, and most modifications have to be made by hand – this CMS is not for the ordinary guy wanting to create a website/blog using themes and plugins.

Security Aspects: WordPress Vs Joomla Security

WordPress is well known for its lack of security in comparison to Joomla. Drupal beats them all, but if you had to choose between Joomla and WordPress for security alone, it would have to be Joomla in spite of it being the inferior CMS overall. Because WordPress is used by so many people, there have been more hacks and it is now regarded as being fairly easy to hack.
Not only that, but as each develops, there are more fresh security weaknesses found in WordPress than in Joomla. Additionally, most people use proprietary and ‘home-made’ themes and plugins that are easy to infect and also easy to hack. Drupal is one of the most secure CMS systems on the market (the White House uses it), but between Joomla and WordPress, Joomla wins – possibly only because of its lack of popularity compare with WP.

SEO: WordPress Vs Joomla SEO

There is really no contest here: Joomla has poor built-in SEO, and cannot compete with WordPress in this regard. Even the WP SEO plugins are better than Joomla. The main SEO plugin for Joomla is very user unfriendly, and is impossible to alter to suit your website without having a good understanding of the Joomla coding.

Conclusion: WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal

In comparing WordPress Vs Joomla Vs Drupal it has to be kept in mind that each of these content management systems are different, and we are not comparing like with like. However, in general, WordPress comes #1 for ease of use by ordinary people that are using the system to create a website or blog.
Drupal comes #1 for those professional developers seeking a fully functional CMS that can be employed to design large-scale applications of various types with varying degrees of functionality. However, if you do not want to use Drupal, and security is a major concern, then you might find that Joomla will fit the bill. It may require a developer experience in Joomla to design a project, and there is not as much help from the community with Joomla as you will find with Drupal and WordPress.
Ultimately, Drupal is tops for larger and more complex CMS projects for businesses and corporations, with WordPress best for ordinary individual users. Joomla may have niche uses between these two extremes, particularly due to its superiority over WP in terms of security.

Nvidia’s $2 Billion Computer Chip May Make AI Much More Powerful

   


At their annual GPU Technology Conference this week, Nvidia unveiled a powerful and expensive new computer chip, which CEO Jen-Hsun Huang says can perform deep learning neural network tasks 12 times faster than their previous best product. To power this speed, the Tesla P100 is packed with fifteen billion transistors – about three times more than their previous top-end chip. All this progress came at a cost of $2 billion in research and development.
Nvidia is a powerhouse in artificial intelligence hardware.

The Santa Clara-based company’s high-powered graphics processing units (GPUs) have helped drive the technology over the past few years, leading some analysts to ask, “Where are all the chip firms not named Nvidia?” With it’s proven success, deep learning – the branch of machine learning that enables systems to identify complex patterns in massive amounts of data by passing information through additional layers of simulated neurons – is where the company has concentrated their efforts.

Chips serve as the physical “brain” for AI software, which tends to be limited by hardware’s computing power. The more complex a system task, the more robust its hardware must be. P100 may offer software companies unprecedented progress thanks to a significant boost in available power. Researchers at Facebook, Microsoft, and Baidu – whom Nvidia has granted early access to P100 technology – can expect to see the capabilities of their AI systems accelerate as tappable computing power multiplies.
Along with their new chip, Nvidia showcased what Huang called “one beast of a machine” – the DGX-1, a supercomputer equipped with eight P100 chips, preinstalled with deep-learning software. 

The company calls the device “the world’s first deep learning supercomputer…engineered top to bottom deep learning…” Though the supercomputer comes with a $129,000 price tag, Nvidia hopes to promote their product to research-based organizations and institutions by giving them to teams at University of California, Berkley, Stanford, New York University, and MIT for trial runs.

Why is Nvidia so focused on deep-learning hardware?
Over the past five years, neural network deep learning has proven to be one of the most successful machine learning methods. AlphaGo defeated world class Go players using deep learning algorithms. Powered by tremendous neural networks, Microsoft’s computer vision software has competed with – and sometime even exceeded – humans’ innate ability to recognize objects. Meanwhile, a deep-learning system developed by Baidu was as good as humans at recognizing both English and Mandarin speech, though natural language processing is one of the next great frontiers.
But deep learning demands power. 
As a leader in GPU manufacturing, Nvidia has a head start on other manufacturers. It also has the capital needed to devote to the development of hardware as robust as the P100. As companies like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Baidu continue to take deep learning even deeper, Nvidia aims to position itself as the go-to provider of the powerful hardware to help drive the next innovations.

How to Test Website Speed

   

Here we will learn about different tools to test your website speed. First we have to know why should we be concerned about website speed and how does it effect on your online business.

Users have many options when browsing content on internet. If a website takes long to load its content then user will leave the site and move to other websites. And coming to e-commerce trends, Amazon sold average of 426 items per second in 2014.If anytime amazon experiences 1 sec delay in loading website it would have lost lot of money.Cloud service provider akamai reported that 75% of online shoppers who experience a slow site will not purchase from that site.

So what is causing delay on your website? It is mostly because of images. Images occupy more space than the remaining. And there are other modules which impact on website speed. So here are some techniques to test your website speed and know what causing your webpages load slow.

developers.google.com :With this tool you can analyse your website by entering your website url, then you will get page speed score for mobile and desktop. And it will identify the modules which delayed page load. And it will guide you how to fix these issues.

test your website speed

Pingdom : It will show how much time every element or page takes to load in your website, here we can know exactly what element or page causing delay.It will also give how much faster than other tested websites in percentile.It is also available as pro version where it will test and verify your websites availability every minute automatically and you can analyze performance data to see how fast your website loads for users from a specific country, browser, or device.

Screenshot from 2016-01-08 11-30-07-compressed


GTmetrix : It is similar to pingdom but also provides page load time history for a particular website and it provides score and explanations for each recommendation, and gives you actionable advice. The recommendations are ordered in terms of which have the most impact on your site. Fixing items at the top of your list can have a bigger impact on your overall score.
There are also other websites available to test your website speed 



When your website is slow or down for a while it means decrease in visitors or users and even lower search engine rankings. Google has announced they are using page speed in their ranking algorithm.
Is your website is down?
You have a website which has limited bandwidth, if suddenly your website users increased then your bandwidth usage will also be increased. If bandwidth usage exceeds the allowed bandwidth usage for website then your website will not work. Or there may be other reasons that your website go down are server maintenance, coding errors, DNS changes or internet connectivity issues etc..

Here are some of the services that you can check any website down for everyone or just you.
