Internet Explorer 9 – The best IE ever?

Internet Explorer 9 – The best IE ever?

The popular dictum that necessity is the mother of invention is very much in evidence when you view the current browser marketplace with that dictum in mind. Microsoft recently gave a preview of the latest version of their browser Internet Explorer and one of the most vocal critics of Internet Explorer Google is now praising the innovation and technical excellence Microsoft Internet Explorer team put into Internet Explorer 9 to make it a fantastic browser.

The fast that Microsoft has been losing market share in the browser war may not be unconnected with the new technically superior IE9, at the moment, market share of various browser vendor world wide look like this:

Microsoft Internet Explorer 60.4 %
Mozilla Firefox 22.93 %
Google Crome 7.52 %
Apple Safari 5.15%
Opera 2.37 %
Others 1.62%

Microsoft won the browser wars against Netscape about a decade ago, Netscape basically disappeared leaving Microsoft Internet Explorer with over 90% of the market share but as the tale above indicated, the browser wars is back with Microsoft losing grounds steadily to competition, with Google crome the fastest rising of the competitions.

One of the most significant technology in IE9 is the way web pages are rendered, it is treated more like and application which Microsoft ways enable web pages to be displayed better and faster. Another new technology which is said to make IE9 a better performing browser is the fact that it blurred the distinction between a web pages and apps. IE9 renders graphics much better because it uses the graphic of the device using it to render graphics.

Microsoft Internet Explorer will be release for download from today Wednesday 15th of September. It is expected to be rolled out as upgrades in some Microsoft platforms, you can also download and install it as a stand alone application on your PC.

Choosing the right plugins for an autoblog

As a personal experience, the two plugins I took a good look upon were the ones provided by wprobot.net and autoblogged.com. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, however wprobot seems to offer much more than the second one. While autoblogged.com software only allows RSS feeds to be added as content, wprobot offers a wide range of features, for less money. For 30$ you get a WordPress plugin that make the autoblogging a piece of cake, for unlimited websites. Moreover, along with the software the customer also gets for free a ClickBank module, a Twitter module, Shopzilla and Press release modules, so other 4 places to get content from an autoblog. However, each customer may add some paid modules for setting up their autoblogs, starting for example from $15 for Youtube module which ads Youtube videos to the blog to a much expensive Amazon module, for $40. Buying the wprobot with all the modules comes with a good discount, from $220 to $169 for the whole package.

On the other hand, the autoblogged plugin comes at $129 for multi-site license, but offers so few when faced with wprobot. Another advantage of wprobot would be the customisation feature, basically one can spend only $15 to get the medium version which can be used on 40 sites, that’s a great value for the money. Monetising the autoblog using wprobot is also much easier with Clickbank and CJ modules, as well as with Shopzilla module.

From this point, the work is 90% done. Just upload the plugin, tweak the settings, use how many times to post per day and from what websites and you are done. You now have a complete blog on auto-pilot that in time might become a good source for an income. A final thought : do not rely on a single autoblog as a « money-maker » but create as many as you can handle while with just one autoblog the earnings will stay at low levels.

Complete Newbie Guide On How To Promote Products On Twitter Efficiently

Even if Twitter it’s known to be one of the largest online social networks where people can update their friends/followers about their status, a lot of internet marketers have recently started to promote their products on Twitter. As a matter of fact, Twitter is one of the most efficient methods of promoting, as the message, even if it is short, goes directly to the followers. And the best part about this service is the fact that it is completely free.

How to use Twitter efficiently? It’s simple as the whole process requires just some few simple steps.

First of all, before starting to post on Twitter, it is necessary to have an account. Making an account is free, easy and fast. Basically, in no more than 3-4 minutes, everyone can start to post on Twitter.

The second step is to make a cool, unique and complete profile. By doing this, the new Twitter user will prove his seriousness and also, it will be a lot easier for other people with the same interests to find and follow him. After all, one of the purpose of using Twitter is to get as much followers as possible so that it will be much easier for the Twitter marketer to promote his products.

The third thing that a new Twitter user should do is to follow as many people as possible. As people have the tendency to follow back, this is a good method to get followers, and therefore, all the new Twitter users are advised to do it.

Now, even if one will follow 5000 people, it is not guaranteed that they will all follow back. Therefore, another great idea of getting more followers is to join different communities and discuss on the topics. By doing this, the percentage of the people who will follow (back) will seriously increase, so from time to time, it’s a good idea to join several Twitter communities.

There is only one thing that is a forbidden unwritten rule: a marketer should never promote his products directly as no one will even consider to check the tweets. Instead, people can choose to write funny stuff about their products, or different information – accompanied by a link of the marketer’s product – that might be useful to the ordinary Twitter user. This way, their tweets will certainly be read.

Last, if the Twitter user doesn’t have time to get the followers that he is in need of, he can pay for some Twitter promotions to some other guys with a big number of followers on Twitter. Though, services like these might be quite expensive, though, if there isn’t any option left, they are indeed the most appropriate solution – especially for the newbies- to promote their Twitter products efficiently.
