WebmastersRe: How My 5months Old Blog Got Approved By Ad Sense With Just 12 Posts. by OBALORLA(op):
GoodyOG:
congrats, i started a blog @ www.goodiestechs.tk last month and have not yet applied for the adsense.

i read about adsense from different source and still reading about it before i apply.

you can also share the hints you know with me
I just finished checking ur blog.
let me start by saying well done because I can imagine the kind of work u must have put in to gather that much content.
However, here are the observations I want to call your attention to:

Your grammar has to be improved: you can always give your work to a close friend who knows how to edit or you too can do it yourself by reviewing your already finished post more than 3times before finally hitting the publish button.


Next is the mobile optimization: some of the texts were cut off, so I wasn't able to read them, especially the first word of each paragraph.

Lastly try to have a more interesting style of writing. and learn how to differentiate words that sound alike. look at one of your topics:

TOP 5 CHEAP LAPTOPS FOR THE YEAR 2016 AND THERE PRICES

replace that "there" with "their"

little mistakes like this get readers turned off.

Aside that, I love the simplicity of your blog's
design.

you can check on popular tech blogs to see how they write so u can improve yourself.
peace.
WebmastersHow My 5months Old Blog Got Approved By Ad Sense With Just 12 Posts. by OBALORLA(op):
Straight to the point.
I have always wanted to own a sensibly unique blog which would contribute to already existing knowledge. On this note, I’d like to advise anybody intending to own a blog to desist from it, if what they want to blog about won’t add value.
If your sole aim as a new blogger is to make money, you won’t last long at all.

Here is how I got adsense approval within the first 5 months of creating my blog at my first attempt:

1. Read very wide about blogging and all other things that surround it before applying

I actually launched my blog on the 11th day of july 2016, but I have been reading different articles on/offline about blogging since December 2015. I read about ad sense for close to a month during this period.
What this habit helped me do was that it prevented me from making common mistakes people have made during their application process and how to avoid them.

2. After reading as many articles as possible, I was able to deduce that wordpress is the best if you really mean business.

3. Since it’s a travel blog, I looked for a very simple name which has the following qualities:
- Easy to spell
- Relates to my niche
4. I immediately searched google for websites that can help someone generate a comprehensive privacy policy page, while I did the contact us and about me page myself. According to my findings these are the 3 most important pages to have on a website or blog.

5. Create a social media profile for your blog. This indicates that your blog is now a separate entity from who you are. After creating this profiles, ensure you link them to the blog.


NB: you should only create social media platforms that will be useful to your niche. i.e if you know twitter will not really boost your visibility, ditch it.

6. Download the right plugins
I mean plugins that will prevent your blog from unauthorized users, prevent spam, and help with SEO.
Do not download the plugins you don’t need or the ones you don’t know how they work. And don’t download 2 plugins serving the same purpose. E.g you don’t need google sitemap if you already have Yoast seo.


About content

7. I want to presume you already have a vast knowledge about your chosen niche. So it shouldn’t be difficult for you to write posts that have at least 300 words (according to SEO standard). In my own case though, I write the average of 1,000 words per post.
8. Write contents that are engaging and unique because this will do 2 things for you:
- Your audience will be willing to drop comments and this is one indicator that your blog is actually useful
- They’d come back for more
Nb: nobody till date knows how many posts you really need to get approved. Nobody.
9. If you must insert images in your posts, make sure you completely give credit to the original owner. Did you notice I emphasized the word completely? It is that important. Same thing applies to borrowed quotes too.
10. Ensure you optimize your blog for both desktop and mobile. When I mean optimize, I mean your blog should both be mobile and desktop friendly.
11. Your loading time too shouldn’t be more than 4 seconds. People get pissed at blogs that take forever to load.

These are the steps I followed to get me approved.

Travel6 Sure Ways You Can Reduce Cost At Any Nigerian Beach In This Recession by OBALORLA(op): 7:19am On Dec 09, 2016
The fact that Christmas is around the corner coupled with the fierce economic condition of the country not forgetting the need to have fun (irrespective of
whatever) has necessitated the birth of this article focused on hinting you on how you can save unecessary cost at any Nigerian beach.

Firstly, it’s born out of a firsthand experience, and secondly, I have tried some and I’ve also suffered from some, but in all, I’d ensure you don’t fall prey
of boredom at the beach henceforth.

Going to the beach is one of the popular (if not the most) way by which fun-seekers relax whenever the thought of going out crosses their minds. The sad
thing, however is that while there exist those who will effortlessly pay their way into having fun at the beach, there are even more who will be willing to go but
get discouraged after mentally calculating what the cost will be. They’d rather just decide to go to a nearby pool (which they really do not want). But unknown to them is the fact that there are ways by which this seemingly exorbitant cost of having fun at the beach can be drastically reduced.

Now that you are set, let me quickly run you through the scope:


1. Fuel someone’s car or hail a cab online

Scared? You needn’t be. As we proceed, the reason will become clearer. But hope you’ve agreed to this point? If you like don’t even agree, all I know is you’d
sure thank me before the end of this post.


2. Go on a Sunday

The reason is simple:
• It will guarantee you less traffic, hence, making the cost of the cab lesser since you’d be spending less time on the road.
• You can also quickly branch some places like the mall or a store to buy stuffs before aiming for the beach.



3. Don’t go alone
This is about the best thing you can do to cut cost. Going with your friend(s) will mean that you guys will split the bill! Can u see the first reason why taking a
cab is cool? Irrespective of the number (max.5) you’d pay the same price for the cab. That’s a smart move right’?
Another plus is that you won’t be bored. So to make it all rosy and more fun, tell your friend(s) to come with his/their girlfriend(s) while you also come with yours too. But if you don’t have any girl, tell your friend to tell her friend to come with her friend- balance the damn equation!
If you are a girl, substitute where necessary. Trust me, it’d be fun. But if the 2 of you don’t have any girl (or
guy as the case may be), go there and start teasing random people.

read: 5 things to do in the beach without
swimming on www.nomadicnegro.com

4. Bring your drinks along

Never try buying drinks from the bars at the beach if you don’t want your purse to grow slim. Do that only if you want to go and chill inside any of the bars. I repeat the drinks at the beach are always expensive. Stay clear.
Foods are also somewhat expensive. I was at the beach some days back and a pack of asun was ₦500. Funnily, enclosed therein were 8 tiny looking pieces of goat meat. Imagine what ₦3,000 would make you if you decide to cook from home or buy something like
snacks from an eatery on your way down there compared to buying 6 packs of asun . I’m sure my mum wont be happy with me.


5. Don’t forget the mats too.

In case you want to sit and relax with your team, a mat is the most potent option, but it’d become impotent when you have to rent it at the beach. Remember I said a cab is the best means of going to the beach? This is another plus because you can put your
mat in the boot from home. And if you don’t have a mat, take a blanket or a large wrapper from home.
The last I checked, a small mat costs around 1k to rent at Elegushi.


6. Haggle the price at the gate like your life depends on it.

Two things here, the guys at the gate of every beach in Lagos are looking tough but I bet you’d enjoy them if you try haggling prices. Secondly, the more intelligently you try to beat the entrance cost down, the better for you. But please never behave like a butty or one kind of sophisticated human being because they’d have more reason to bill you more.

If you aren’t good with haggling, your driver might? See another reason why taking a cab might be good.

You can add yours if you have any addition but dont go just yet. how about sharing this post to few friends. it might be of help, who knows?

Op, your brain is dead.
I'm staying in Badagry. why all this trash about where I'm residing. more over,
it's sultan beach and not suntan as you typed .


Badagry that was awarded and honoured as the "home of tourist " by gov Ambode.
who is the unchanged OP sef.

NOTE:-
BADAGRY WAS where the first primary school was located and started.

BADAGRY WAS the first place the storey building was built.

BADAGRY WAS where the first well was dug.

BADAGRY WAS where the first church was build.

BADAGRY WAS where the first Bible was translated to Yoruba language.

BADAGRY WAS where the slave trade resided during there era.

and lot more,.......

PROUD TO STAY IN BADAGRY
@dauddy97 see what just happened:

You: who is the unchanged OP sef?
Me: I’m an inquisitive nomadic traveler (a novice though)

You: BADAGRY WAS where the first primary school was located and started.
Me: You are wrong, badagry wasn’t. it iwas instead the place where the first primary school in Nigeria was located in Nigeria.

You: BADAGRY WAS the first place the storey building was built.
Me: According to history, you are wrong again. It wasn’t Badagry. Badagry was instead the first place where a story building will be built in Nigeria.

You: BADAGRY WAS where the first well was dug.
Me: No! though I’m tired of telling you how wrong you are but I’d say it irrespective. It wasn’t in badagry. I think you now know the right answer.

You: BADAGRY WAS where the first church was build.
Me: Another wrong assertion. Where was C.A Gullma and co now worshiping before they came down here?

You: BADAGRY WAS where the first Bible was translated to Yoruba language.
Me: I’m tired but I’d manage to tell you that I doubt if anyone knows where the first bible is.

You: BADAGRY WAS where the slave trade resided during there era.
Me: No comment cos I’m tired. Slave trade isn’t a person neither does it have a home/abode. Besides, if what you are saying is anything to go by, I’d still say you are wrong. All coastal areas in Nigeria e.g Calabar and Niger in Nigeria also had a fair share of the trans Atlantic slave era. Badagry was just more popular.

You: and lot more,.......
Me: I hope you wont be wrong with them

You: PROUD TO STAY IN BADAGRY
Me: Me too!


In all, I’m disappointed that you didn’t even attend to my topic, instead you were out to devour me.
Maybe my brain aint dead afterall?.
Oh! I almost forgot!
About the true name of the place, see this picture:

TravelIf You’d Ever Visit Badagry, Never Go To These Places! by OBALORLA(op): 2:00pm On Dec 05, 2016
This isn’t about me trying to discourage you, neither is it for me to spoil market for these places. It’s rather for them to up their game. Nothing more.

I actually just returned from my trip to Badagry after my trip to Ogun state, and with high hopes, I had enlisted these destinations in my to-go list. But on getting there, I was totally disappointed even though I tried all I could to give my doubts as many benefits remaining in my sad mind.

Without much ado, here they are:

1. Mobee Royal Family Museum
This museum is one of the most popular museums in Badagry. The reason why people actually go there is because it is one of the few available. Below are the reasons why I would never advise any traveler to go there (perhaps until things get better).
[img][/img]

The reception is poor: On getting there, I noticed that the guys who were in charge of narrating the story behind the museum looked too hostile. They may probably be taking some hard stuff because their eyes were so brown and scary. They also didn’t look serious. They rather were after the money to be made from tourists.
It’s too small: Need I say more? Had it been that it was small and well packed, it could have been a different scenario. But it was too scanty also. I just don’t know what to compare it with.
The story behind it is lame: You see, all personal museums in Badagry have a story behind their existence. But unlike the other museums I visited, Mobee’s storyline is the lamest and least interesting. There seems to be nothing thrilling about it.

Let me stop there. The second is-

2. Suntan beach

9 out of 10 people will likely mention Suntan Beach first when asked to mention bitches (Oops! Sorry, I meant beaches) known to them in Badagry. Maybe that’s why majority get disappointed after visiting there. Below are the reasons why Sultan Beach is nothing but an overhyped tourist destination.
[img][/img][email]

Poor maintenance culture: The management of this beach (that is if they have any) could care less about what the role of proper branding and renovation is. The painting down to the artworks isn’t anything to write home about.
Boredom resides there: Unlike its counterparts like Elegushi and Oniru, Suntan Beach thinks it is only during festive periods that they need to pull stunts. Aside from a few houses and other offensive materials which I’m too annoyed to mention, there’s nothing attractive about it again.
Lacks Innovation: The fact that Sultan is at the extreme end of Lagos doesn’t mean it shouldn’t borrow some innovative ideas from its aforementioned counterparts. I don’t know what is wrong with them collaborating with potential sponsors and developers. I just don’t know.

Enough said about the above eyesores. Let me tell you some places that made my stay in Badagry worthwhile.



however, here are some Places You should See When Next You Go To Badagryhttp://www.nomadicnegro.com/6-places-must-see-next-go-badagry/

TV/MoviesKunta Kinte: 5 Life Lessons You Should Learn From His Horrible Story by OBALORLA(op): 12:45pm On Dec 05, 2016
On the 24th of November 2016 when I went on tour to the Badagry heritage museum was my second encounter with the name Kunta Kinte after previously been introduced to it by Nigerian Indigenous rapper (Reminisce) in one of his freestyles which I can’t for now remember the title.

Immediately I completed my session at the museum, the tour guide suggested I bought the film which according to him will give me a clearer understanding of how black slaves were treated during the Trans-Atlantic slave era.

So I paid ₦500, not because I was that financially fluent but for the fact that I really wanted to know what reminisce meant by that line.

On getting home, I discovered there is more to this slave than just his chains.

Here are 5 life lessons I learned while watching the movie:


1. On obedience
Try as much as you can to respect your elders, even if we all know that not everyone who is older than us is fit to be tagged an elder (no apologies), but try to at honour the words of the elderly.

The major reason why Kinta Kunte was captured into slavery was because he disobeyed his father (Omoro) when he advised him not to travel to further his education. He disobeyed, mounted his horse, and sped off to meet his girlfriend inside the forest where he was later beaten mercilessly before being captured with his girlfriend into slavery.



2. Concerning skills

I beg of you, no matter how occupied you might be, try as much as you can to learn the following:

Swim and drive.

Kunta kinte ought to have lost his place as a village champion if he didn’t know how to do the above. There was a time during their training before being captured where he was told to get to a particular spot before the rest of the team. His swimming skill enabled him evade the people who could have killed him because he had to bury himself underwater for over 4minutes before finally resurfacing again to escape.



3. On women and love

If you love a girl, please do not hesitate to tell her you want her. Ladies hate guys who try beating aimlessly around the bush. Look straight into her eyes and say those words. I forgot to mention they respect and can naturally get wet on beholding confident guys.



Kunta Kinte started to stutter when it was time to profess his love for his would-be wife Belle. This made her slam the door on his face. Though, she later opened the door to give him a second chance (which he creatively utilized). He didn’t even finish his lines before she said gladly blurted yes!

But TBH, many times, there isn’t usually a second chance to create a good first Impression.



4. On submission

You can’t win all battles. Hence, know when to back out during every scuffle. An old saying even has it that “whoever fights to run, lives to fight another day”.

In the movie, the normal tradition is for every slave master to rename their slaves after purchase, but when Kunta’s master renamed him Toby, he refused to be called that name. So there was this day he had to be tied and beaten until he admits the new name. For every lash, he’d be asked, what is your name? And his reply would be “Kunta Kinte”. This, of course, will earn him continuous lashes until he almost died before fiddler- his only friend had to lure him into admitting Toby which he did and was freed.


He later avenged though.





5. On perseverance

Continue trying until you get it.

This was evident when Kunta Kinte was teaching his daughter how to jump on (and ride) a horse. She relentlessly tried without success until the day she finally got it right. And when she did, I needn’t tell you how judiciously she utilized that skill.



There are a thousand and one lessons from that movie but I’m just so constrained. You can, however contribute yours in the comment box below (that’s of course if you’ve seen the movie).

To be very honest getting a better ranking via SEO is as easy as its hard.
going straight to the point, I'd first advise whoever is interested in serious blogging to use WordPress (i really do not have any explanation for that- I'm sorry).
next is to buy a domain, because if you are still using Bleep..com or xyz., it will still seem like you are joking. doing this will open u to opportunities and features inaccessible to people who haven't bought.
after doing the above, for WordPress, go to your backend and click on plugins on the menu list and select "add new". this will bring to you a page which will feature loads of free and paid plugins.
carefully look for Yoast SEO, then download it.
this plugin will serve as a guide to you whenever you are writing any post/topic. you will know whether what you are writing is optimized or not because it will tell you what you are doing wrong or right and point out what you can do to correct the mistake(s).

I can't really explain all but i assure you that if you go by the above, you'd be one step closer to achieving visibility on google's first page.

that is all i have been doing and its been fetching my 4months old blog www.nomadicnegro.com an impressive traffic rate.

Actually you are correct @op about us.

But the thing is most people are up by 4am doing various chores but when it's 6.30am then you start seeing people on the streets . It's not because they are lazy or anything but because abeokuta is a calm city.

If you call a cab in abeokuta, the cab driver atimes will need to reverse and park beside you before you enter Another thing is if you enter a cab in abeokuta and the taxi driver called N50 as the cab fee.. Just remove N10 or N20 from it but mostly N10.

I enjoyed growing up in abeokuta, because the time i relocated to Lagos, i couldn't imagine myself growing up in Lagos.

In Lagos nobody tells you before you start walking fast but abeokuta you can still walk majestically on the road.

Abeokuta itself is not industrialized. Few places are commercial like oke ilewo, panseke, sapon, kuto, ibara,ita eko etc.

The method ogun state is using is to use industrialization to drive development to other local government hence you can't find much industries in abeokuta whereas nearby ewekoro, sango, Ota, igbesa, sagamu, agbara, mowe, ibafo etc has numerous industries which is helping the development of those areas.

Ogun state has four zones, 1:abeokuta (egbas) 2: ijebu ode (ijebus) 3: ilaro (yewa) 4: sagamu (remo)
whaoh! this is an exhustive and brilliant explanation.

Education5 Things A Squatter Can Do To Be More Influential Than Any Bonafide. by OBALORLA(op): 12:31pm On Dec 01, 2016
An adage goes thus: ‘A drug is best prescribed by a pharmacist’… or better still a herbalist.

Therefore,before starting my epistle, I will give reasons why I’m fit to write on this topic.

As a fresh graduate from the University First Choice and the nation’s pride, I have spent 4 years of my stay squatting in 6 different rooms of which are in 5different hostels and with 4 different landlords. you know what all these can mean right? Lol… meet me in person to ask how I managed to do all that.

Away from the aforementioned, under-listed are the techniques I adopted in ensuring I remained very influential in all of these rooms, which I’d aspire all squared to learn from.



Act dumb within your first 2 weeks
Allow me remind you that people fear quiet people more than those who talk. Hence, this will give every room member a confusing impression about your personality. They’d want to be cautious with dealing with you. They’d tend to give you more attention. They want to know when you’d first utter another sentence aside the good morning, good afternoon and good evening you always say.

This will help you achieve the 6th law of power which states that you should court attention at all cost.


Be stupidly courteous with greetings and apologies.
Immediately after your dumb session (i.e after your first 2 weeks) wake up the next morning and surprise everyone with your courtesy. Greet everyone before they greet you (call their names when greeting). What this will do is that it will make them feel more important than they ever thought. Remember, boys barely greet themselves in the morning, neither do girls.


Contribute only intelligently

Undeniable is the fact that there’d be a day you’d either be returning from class or a day you’d be in the room when an argument or debate will ensue. Try as much as you can to keep shut if what you have to say isn’t better than silence. Hence, if you must say anything at all, ensure its something intelligent.

The 4th law of power has it that you should “always say less than necessary”



Never take sides

For the sake of reiteration I’d say it again: never take sides! No matter who and who is involved in a heated argument or malice, instead of supporting any of the parties, try to settle their ‘beef’ by outlining each party’s mistakes (because a situation like this will surely arise) and try to reconcile between both parties whenever that is necessary.This will enable you kill the fire to the malice once and for all.

Check out the 20th law yourself

Be tactful with rendering help

Don’t be quick to render help. This sounds rather harsh but as harsh as it may sound, it’s the truth and I would give an example:

Imagine Someone who just finished consuming a bowl of rice with meat, stepping it down with a bottle of soft drink requesting you to loan out some amount to him/her to purchase another ration.This will definitely necessitate a rejection. A polite one though.

But consider another example: if the person were to be borrowing from you to satisfy a cogent need like say ‘requesting a certain amount to feed his empty stomach or to soak garrI, then no crime at all if he his helped in such instances. As this is highly encouraged.

The reason behind this isn’t farfetched: people barely remember the help others render to them. Even if they would, they only remember the most important ones.

Now tell me, of the two scenarios, which would be recalled or better appreciated?

These highlighted moves might sound dumb but it sure will win you the desired respect- one which will far outpace that given to any bonafide.

My name is Phillips Tunde but I loved to be addressed with the appellation ‘Negro‘.

I’m a proud squatter!

started about a month ago, but don't really know which way to go as regards issues of SEO or what do they call it.

Reviews will be appreciated. thanks
nice try!
but u need the following to make ur blog look note professional:
logo, header image, about me page, sitemap, privacy policy.

then for your articles:
I want to assume they are all not copied.
try fixing in at least one picture in each post.
try creating buzz feed-like posts.

try buying a domain.

try the above for now.
use Google where necessary.

Nice one.

it is true Abeokuta don't wake up early but they sleep early....by 9pm everywhere is empty :x

They love to make outrageous gain on goods they sell also...and they can exploit stranger... tell a bike man u r going to Kuto from Panseke (usually N50 )...they can take as high as N300 from a stranger.


They funniest part is their state anthem is ISEYA OMO OGUN ISE YA ....meaning It's Time to work or Work is Set to be done....but majority of d youths their lives in opposition to the Call of their anthem.

Another interest fact about Abeokuta and Ogun state as a whole is THE LAND IS FULL OF DIGNITARIES....eg..

1. EX PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO

2. EX CHIEF JUSTICE OF NIGERIA (I can't recall the name... was also from there)

3. D'BANJ

4. Current Finance minister ...KEMI ADEOSUN

5. Current Vice President...PROF OSIBANJO

6. The Old Movie Star ...IYA RAINBOW

7. WOLE SOYINKA

8. The KUTIs ...Fela anikulapo et. al

9. GBENGA ADEYINKA (The comedian)

10. KENNY OGUNGBE (I.e D1 the owner of KENNIS MUSIC).


I cant mention them all...they even wrote a book titled100 DIGNITARIES FROM OGUN STATE


but d thing is they are not developing most of their LGA....eg Ipokia, Abeokuta North, Odeda, etc.
omitooguns, I so wish this your is on my blog where the original article was curled from.
people will learn.

Great work you are doing. Definitely, you will be rewarded, no matter how challenging it may seems right now. Stay blessed and God's protection on you, if you don't mind my prayer. Some people here are atheist, so forgive me for if you did find my statement a bit weird. Enjoy your discovery.
lemme start by saying Amen to your prayers. they mean so much to me.
I'm not an atheist even though I'm not religious either. but I know how important peoples comments are on nairaland. commenting is about the most difficult thing to do here. but for u to take out ur time to type all you have, I can't but just appreciate you.
thanks Olu317
