Romance / Re: 10 Ways To Keep A Boring Relationship Alive by IamShiningStar(f): 11:39pm On Feb 17, 2018
lilkudos:

There’s nothing so worrisome than having a partner and still feel lonely or bored even when they are around you.

Or that stage in a relationship you almost get tired of your partner and really need some space.

The worst part is not being able to help the situation, because you keep losing interest in each other day by day, but you still want to make things work out because you love and always want your partner around.

A lot of couples have asked this questions so many times and in so many ways and still find it difficult to maintain a relationship with their partners, they always want to be away from each other because they can’t find nothing to do together, I want to let you know that there is no specific solution to your boring relationship, but there are things you can do to revive it and rekindle the fire of love between you two, and secondly when it comes to love, you don’t force things to happen, you just let it happen naturally and that’s the best way to LOVE someone.

I’m going to lay down some tricks that have worked for me in reviving my almost dead relationship, it might be the solutions you are looking for, just know that this trick is not a piece of magic but something you have to devote your time in doing all for the sake of your marriage or relationship.

1.Plan A Trip – Plan a trip to an exciting place. This trick always works, it refreshes us and gives us a new idea and things to talk about, ladies can go on and on and on about this exciting trip they went on and how it felt like their honeymoon all over again, yes it always works like magic don’t neglect the power of changing environment or having an adventure together, it’s a necessity in everyday life apart from relationships, it refreshes our mind, soul and body.

2. Nostalgic Feelings – You might wonder what I’m really talking about. LOL yeah!! I’m talking about that love at first sight feelings. You might want to recreate that feelings all over again, you can take her to that right spot where you met her and try to remember all you said to her before she fell in love with you. This have often times worked a miracle in rekindling the fire of love, it brings back a lot of memories that makes you see the beauty in your partner right-away like sparks of light. Take that trip down your memory lane.

3. Movie – It’s also the best way to relax and get the best of entertainment, you don’t have to sit at home, same cushion, same TV watching some old movie, maybe you need that sparks, that crowd, that bucket of popcorn and a can of diet coke to put you guys back in line.

4. Write A Diary – Remember that diary we always write together with our best friend when we were kids, you can also have fun writing a diary with your partner, about a lot of adventures you had growing up or when you guys met.

5. Dinner with friends – you might have this friend who is also married, with kids maybe or not, you can always have a scheduled dinner with them, call it “Couples Friday Dinner”, it can be hosted at their place or your place, just get together and have a fun time together.

6. Learn Something Together – it’s always fun learning new things with your partner, let’s say you don’t know how to cook as a man, well it’s time to learn how to cook one or two meals from your wife. Let’s say your wife doesn’t know how to do some dirty jobs, work the generator or fix a minor car fault, you can plant an orchard together at your backyard, all for the fun and gain.

7. Visit Your Old Parents – it’s always fun at the village, that stream you fetched water from as a kid, you can go sightseeing, relax with your old parents and feel at home once more.

8. Couples Night Out – There’s always this show going on at one love garden or the other, night of thousand laughs, Friday shows, weekend getaway, there’s a lot happening out there, just get yourself hooked up it worth it.

9. Think About Having Babies – Babies are the light and happiness of every marriage, with no doubt, you should make plans of having babies, they always have a way of bringing the family together and devoted.

10. Always Pray Together – A family that prays together always stays together, without God in your marriage or relationship, you are bound to failure. It’s God that keeps everything in place not I or you. God-Over-Everything #GOE.

Well with all those list up there, you are free to try anyone or all of them. But always have in mind that being devoted is the key to every happy marriage, and always communicate, it’s necessary.

Wish you all the best and a Happy Home. -Austine Martins (Hi5ivtech.com)

Webmasters / Re: 6 Reasons Your Website Is Not Generating Traffic And How To Fix Them by IamShiningStar(f): 1:19pm On Feb 15, 2018
will read later! thank you.
jchima14:
It’s quite hard but 100% possible to drive massive traffic to your website!
You probably believe you’ve done everything you think is the best already, from website design to daily content post yet the result says negative.

Obviously something is wrong, this is no brainer!
The billion dollar question is — what are the brain behind the poor traffic generation of your website?

Am quite sure most business owners especially start-ups have asked this question over and over again yet the answer seems to be lost in the wind.
Fortunately for you, Google has directed you to the right place.
In this piece, I‘ll tell you the ultimate possibilities WHY your website is not generating traffic and how to fix them.
Without much ado, here are the top 6 reasons why your website is not driving traffic and how you can fix them.

1st reason: Your SEO is weak:
Are you aware that Google is the best open source for generating free traffic?
Getting your website on the first page of Google Search engine is tough but not impossible.
It take steady hard work and obedience to Google guidelines to rank high in Google search engine.
In the words, you need a superb content to begin with.

However, there are other factors that can help you skyrocket your Google ranking such
as;
- creating XML sitemap for you website
- Keywords optimization
- SEO plugin installation and so on
The absence of any of these factors might cause your website to be invisible on Google search by making your SEO appear weak.
Weak SEO will useless your effort to be found when people search for product related to your niche.
The bitter truth is that people hardly go to the second page on Google when they are searching for something.
Personally, when I’m searching for something on Google, once I can’t find what am looking for on the first page, I will enter another keywords instead of going to the next page.
You might even be surprised that most people doesn’t know that other pages aside the first one exist.

How to fix it:
Install search console, Google Analytics and an XLM sitemap: these tools are essential in getting your website found by Google.
Google Search Console allows you to monitor your overall search presence.
While Google Analytics allows you to track your website’s traffic.
It is equally useful when you want to confirm your webpage with the Google Search Console formerly called Google Webmaster tool.
And then XML sitemaps makes it possible for Google bots to crawl through your site and of course read your website. You should also consider the installation and configuration of Yoast SEO.

Yoast SEO is known to be the best Wordpress SEO plugin. This plugin will also help
you boost your site SEO and drive traffic to your website.
This plugin is quite simple. Once you install it, use the configuration wizard to guide you
with the setup.

2nd reason: Your content is Boring
As far as blogging is concern, content remains the king in traffic generation.
How do you feel when you crawl through a blog with quality blog posts?
Am sure leaving almost became impossible? Why – the post is fleshy with quality content.
What then can you say about your own posts?
Can visitors get stuck as soon as they get into your site? Or do they jump in, hiss and left?
As long as you continue to write resistible, uninteresting, and boring content, nobody is going to waste his/her time clicking on your blog post.
So to generate traffic and get people stuck in your website, you need to write useful and compelling content, if not, you’re no closer to getting traffic to your website.

How to fix it:
First you need to know your onus. What problem are you trying to solve with your website through your content.
Every content must have a target, so what’s yours?
Writing a quality content means understanding your audience and writing to suit their needs.
Find out what their problem is and then render a solution to that problem with a well–researched content ranging from keywords planning to the actual writing. You might consider using tools like Google keyword planner, SEMRush, etc to get exact keywords people are looking for.
Note: before writing a blog post, always place yourself in your audience’ shoes, by doing so, you’ll able to have a solution to their problems.

3rd reason: Your Headlines are Loose and resistible
What attracts you to click on a post?
I usually get attracted once I set my eyes on catchy headlines-I don’t even waste time hitting the click button-why? It’s compelling and irresistible. No one would even bother clicking if your headline is not interesting.

Eyes definitely eat first the before tongue get to taste the food.
So if you’ve spent all your time and energy writing quality content and then drops a boring headline, 90 out 100 people won’t even want to know if the content is superb or not. So headline is as much important as quality content- both go in handy.

How to fix it:
You should know what your audience are looking for so you need to know exact keyword or something very close.
Thank goodness, you finally get an awesome keyword.
The next thing is to write something capable of arresting the attention of people looking for such keywords.

Examples of titles:
 Top 10 ways of getting your website rank no. 1 in Google
 5 best ways to make money on the internet
 How to overtake your competitors and rank no.1 in SEO
 How you can promote your sales to 70% through your website in 2018
Write something that is catchy. However, your titles should be related to your niche.

4th reason: You content lack promotion
It is one thing to write a quality content, and another to promote the content.
Do you just hit the publish button and relax while your content sink and sink until it can’t be found anymore.
As a startup business, you brand may not have been recognized by people-you need to get people to know about the services you offer.
Prospects only clicks links that are visible to them, and yours can only be found if promoted.
Even large businesses also promote their contents.
So your inability to generate enough traffic could be lack of promotion.

How to fix it:
This absolutely has nothing to do with budget- in other words, even if you’re running a very tight budget you can as well promote your content and get people to know about your brand-HOW?
Social media marketing- It is free unless you want to subscribe to paid promotion campaign.
Social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc) is one the best ways you can promote your business, content and website as well-this is no brainer.

With good social media management you can get thousands of traffic in a matter of days.
All you need is create social media presence (I would recommend Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn)
As long as you continue to promote your social media presence, you’ll definitely get visitors running through your website.
Note: You must be socially active to get the expected result.

5th reason: Your website has terrible user experience
The poor site traffic you complained about could be as result of the terrible and horrible user experience of your website.
If your site is not user-friendly, I bet you won’t have enough traffic-in fact your site visitors will even decrease in number.
Nobody would want to have bad experience when he/she needed to surf for internet for something.
One thing you must know is that man (male and female) by nature is impatient. So if your site is not user friendly then generating traffic going to be almost impossible because people will not visit your site irrespective of your superb content.
Bad user experience will discourage those that wants to read your post.
It is good to have a site that’s user friendly.

How to fix it:
When it comes to a user-friendly website, many things are involved.
Poor wed design, poor loading speed and many more.
So you have to modify your website and make it user-friendly, let visitors have the flexibility of navigating through your site without obstructions.
Optimize your website to load faster at least three second load. Optimize the images and videos on your page so that your website won’t spend years loading. No one has time for such terrible experience.

6th reason: Your website is not mobile friendly
You might be wondering why your site is still not having much clicks. Check if your website is mobile friendly.

With the billions of people surfing the internet through their mobile phone, chances are that you won’t get much traffic. The portability of mobiles phone allows people to surf the internet anywhere and anytime provided there’s internet provider. So if your site in not generating enough traffic, the problem could be from non- friendliness of your
website.

How to fix it:
Use some of these tool to check if your website is mobile friendly then optimize your site to be compatible with mobile phones.
Now over to you, what other top reason (s) do you think can cause poor traffic generation of a website?

boiz2men:


All these self centered ladies.


Here's my prayer for you and kimbraa

May you both sacrifice something of great value to someone and may that person reject your show of love.



If you can stomach that, then you ain't hypocritical

Picture that a lady defied her father's instructions to not marry a guy. She got disowned by her father. She lost every affiliation with her family and friends for the guy. Yet, after eloping with the guy.. She suddenly discovers that the guy is married and has said he could not marry her for whatever reasons

Would you have said all this nonsense you people have been saying on this thread?

Apparently not, you would have cursed the guy and called the babe foolish.

Now this scenario depicts a girl who can easily go back to her family and plead for forgiveness. The topic of this thread is a fvucking kidney.


There's so much hate in my heart right now for you ladies who have decided not to be humane.


I wish I could inject your eyes with hot sulphuric acid. angry
seriously SMH for some people! My dear what are you talking about? did you take out time to read and digest what the op posted before commenting? SMH for you once again!

Here, these are best friends for crying out loud, they were never in love romantically and never promised marriage to one another for Pete's sake! What the guy did was so brave no doubt but that doesn't mean the girl must marry him as a compensation for what he did even when she has no feelings for him. It's marriage we are talking about here, come on!

you sound as if they were in love, promised each other marriage only for the girl to dump him after receiving his kidney! You even heard them talking about still remaining best friends or you think the guy will be cool with that if it isn't what it is?

But what can I say, obviously you don't know and can't differentiate between best friends and lovers!

chai, some people's level of understanding ehnn I can't deal!

kimbraa:
I don't understand people. Is she meant to compensate him with marriage if she doesn't see a future with him now simply because he gave her his kidney out of his own volition? Well, she said she was going to think about it, and she has every right to say "yes" or "no". The guy is matured enough sef.
nne I wonder oo! how some people think ehnn, especially my naija peeps dey baffle me oo! So you must be compensated for doing good or helping out a friend in dire need? oooh! odikwa egwu oo!

note/ they are best friends for Pete's sake! the guy helped her knowing fully she may turn down his proposal or may not. And you heard the man said he can never regret giving her life, marriage or no marriage! And some folks are here talking what I don't know!

Naija folks really have a long way to go in learning how to love for real without expecting anything in return!

Webmasters / Re: This Is How You Should Blog Effectively This Year by IamShiningStar(f): 9:32am On Feb 08, 2018
marenx:
This is How You Should Blog Effectively This Year

This is the first time I wrote for this blog this year and I'm going to talk about how we can blog better.

Writing on a blog is the best way to learn to write conversationally to the teaming audience.

The best technique is to adopt a format and stick to it.

If you're not Seth Goding, the master blogger, you know the popular format is introduction-body-and-conclusion, right?

Having known the popular format, it's up to you to choose what to fill in the format.

These questions will help. What do you want to say in your introduction, body and conclusion? And how do you want to say it so you'll edit less?

In academic writing or research report, introduction may include definition of the problem or matter in question; body may display the discovery, purpose, and method; and conclusion may simply become the last sentence of the body--or if there is any need for further research.

Unless for research or assignment, people hate reading academic writing. So I'm going to talk about how to make a good use of your choice to write a good blog post that people will love to stick to.

In writing a good blog post, you've to connect to your readers emotionally. For this reason, your introduction should display something far above definition.

In the first paragraph I chose to say 'This is the first time I wrote for this blog this year....'

This is my way of introducing my writing to you, to connect to you easily.

Here are other choices of what to say in your introduction.

Ask a question:

Have you read my last post? You need to read it. And today I'm revealing another secret.

Prepare your readers this way:

Looking at today's date, this is the day I choose to post this write-up and I'm talking about valentine....

Or say something like:

Writing a blog needs serious commitment but the way I wrote this one is as though I was not writing but I was revealing a secret of how to use anger for good.

The most important thing to note in the above examples is the use of 'I' and 'and'. But you can also use 'you' or 'we'. 'and' is used to make a good flow, to avoid using short-short sentences which make it weak. You can also use 'but' or 'so' or 'however'.

As regard the body, you fill in it with what you want your audience to learn or know. But as regard the conclusion, you use a similar technique to introduction.

To conclude your blog post, you can say something like:

Now I'm glad I come to the conclusion. Thanks for following my write-up. Till we see another time.

Or:

This is where I stop as regard this post. Thanks Anny for accepting my guest post. Thanks to all who read this post up to the end. I'm available to read your comments if there would be any.

Or:

I'm travelling next week, yet expect another post. You really make my day reading this one. Thanks.

If you conclude your work like the above examples, anyone who wants to comment badly on your post will lack a guts.

Thanks for the reading.

If your answer is the latter, then you need to stop spamming yaself, in fact delete as many as possible from those ya spams up there and allow reasonable nairalanders some air so as to read, digest and get a grip of what you're talking about. Otherwise be rest assured that nobody will ever read those things you stuffed up there, and it will be a wasted effort.
