3 Easy Steps to Content Research

If you want to be the proud owner of a site that generates a lot of money, you must be prepared to work really hard. You need to work hard in order to take your site to that stage. One of the most important parts of creating a good and successful website is to have great content. Given below are a few tips which will enable you to offer better content to your website visitors.

1. Originality: You will be able to generate great content only if you write in an original manner. Remember that trying to force any kind of tone in your content will only make it look like you’re ‘faking’ it. What people are looking for is a website where they can get hold of genuine stuff. In order to make sure that your website is a success, you need to make individuals believe in you and like what you write. Go for thorough research before you write anything.
Ensure that each piece of content on your website is a well researched article that is written in an original and interesting manner. Never try to enforce any kind of opinions or tones in your articles.

2. Never Plagiarize: Plagiarizing is something which is illegal, so by all means steer clear of it. It is a very tricky thing. Often, people think that they are just doing research while it actually amounts to plagiarizing. In fact, the doubt regarding this issue is such that even many court cases on plagiarism have been left unresolved. Since there is a great aspect of intellectual ethics involved here, it is best that you write the content of your website in such a way that it is completely original.

3. How to write the stuff - This is the million dollar question. The first thing that you need to take care of is the research. In order to write well about something, you need to study that subject for a considerable period of time. Also, you need to conduct the research and the study within a certain amount of time because you will not have an eternity to write an article.
Since you have to write within a certain time, you need to choose your material very carefully. The selection of the resources is a very crucial part of the whole process. Once you are done with the research, decide on a certain way to write the article.

Write what you think and what you want to say regarding the matter. Without a clear direction, your article won’t stand strong. Follow these tips and you will be ready to have a great site which gives people the kind of content they want. One last thing that I would like to tell you is that you must keep your article interesting so that your readers do not doze off while reading it. Your article must be targeted at a particular reader group and you must cultivate a writing style which will attract your target group.

When you are writing, also take care about the formatting and the style.

With these tips, you can carve your way towards a great website with appreciable content.

The Bounce Rate

The Bounce rate shows the effectiveness of your webpage.

It is the percentage of people/visitors to your website that leaves without looking at the content pages inside the site. They are just looking at the first page - The Landing Page - and then they leave.

"Imagine looking down a busy street, You don´t see all the Toyotas, but if a Ferrari comes along, You have a second look"

Some say your bounce rate should be below 50% but it depends a lot on what kind of site you have - Sales page, blog - Blogs normally has a higher rate of bounces as most visitors are reading the latest content blog post and then leave.

A way of tracking and analyzing your bounce effectiveness is to use the Google Analytics program and yes it´s Free!

Geo Positioning of your Friends

Like to know where your friends are from, Twitter Local makes it possible

What is TwitterLocal?

Since Twitter cut off their Jabber feed from TwitterLocal, we had to rely purely on the XML API, which meant that only about 20% of Tweets from the public timeline got into TwitterLocal. Now that Twitter has a location-based search API, we don't have to cache the posts anymore. So now, TwitterLocal is going to be purely an Adobe AIR based application that allows you to filter Tweets by location.

Quick, simple posting of video, images and text to Twitter

Jively Created by UK-based developer Martin Buhr, the app is designed as a place to update your social network accounts with images and videos from a mobile without having to hook up third party services like Twitpic.

It enables quick, simple posting of video, images and text to your user feed from any mobile device via email or MMS with twitter-like replies, hashtags and trending. In other words it’s quite like Twitter, but this does MMS and video as the site will auto-embed content from Youtube, Vimeo, Flickr and other web sites from posted links and synchronise with your Twitter and Tumblr accounts. Or just post plain text if you like. You can also set up notifications for search terms you are interested in and then have it notify you via mobile. The service also has an API.
