Webmasters › Re: Guide: How To Succeed If You Are Blogging For The Money. by Razak5(m): 11:59am On Mar 08, 2018
fajul:
Useless post. Do you know the amount of time and resources you have to put in for your blog to bring traffic?
Do you even know what it means to maintain a very large website?
The programming codes and the URL rewriting?
The amount of money for hosting for many years before you start having traffic?
We in Nigeria always like free things. For your info, there is nothing free in this world and if you are not willing to provide value too to the web owner then you should not expect value from the blog too.
You want the web owner to provide free quality information without making money? That is why we don't move forward in Nigeria.
Get this into your head: "There is nothing free in this world" and you cannot get quality without paying.
Ooops!! Easy Bro! grin grin

I think, the author is talking about the very start - y'know starting on the right footing. It's pretty much like this:

Get the content right > lure the right audience > bill them.
This Cycle takes a long time,even when you pay for Ads and stuff. But it takes a
VERY long time if you want it all free...

If you have a good content and passion strong enough - you won't shy away from spending that N3000, that N5000, etc to bring people to your incredible content!

You're right! This "free " mentality stagnates a lot of things... Many want it free - even the domain & hosting! Thereafter they start complaining about how bad the host is; how the host keeps placing Ad banners on their sites without their permission, how the down time is like 80% grin. - Talk of the high price of" free"

Pls my Compaq laptop when I put it on it no Ionger display on the screen. What could be wrong ?
Hello,
This is too little info.
Kindly look out for the following and get back to the forum.

1. The caps lock light: does it blink?
2.The beep: does the laptop ever beep? If it does, how many times? Also take note if they are long drawn beeps or short beeps.
3. The fan: does it spin? If yes, are all the lights on, like a normal working system?

PS: If you feel the above a bit tasking, see a tech from this stage.

*cheers*

Hi there,
If it peeled off from the board where the ribbon is, you can resolder. However of it did break midway, you'll have no other option than to change the connector.

Hello,

The battery shouldn't be that expensive.
Although lately the double cell has been scare. However the single cell is well within reach and its surprisingly affordable. Between NGN15000 and NGN18000...

Exactly!

Hi, @jaahyi young

You must be especially careful with the power ratings. A slightly big variation may trigger something unpleasant.
There's a reason why Macbook boards are called "logic boards". They sense even the slightest increase in the Amperage... E be like say dem carry winsh grin grin

Hello,
Getting Microsoft office shouldn't be hard.

Just get the installation DVD and you're good.

I've got one though. But I wouldn't give it for free.

However there are sites where you can download from for free...go here-https://filehippo.com/download_microsoft_office_2013/

Also just Incase Microsoft office is giving you download problems, you can go for LibreOffice (an alternative)...

Hello there,
I'd like to know the kind of battery you are looking for.

I know why you're asking!
But the problem perhaps isn't where to buy but what you'll be buying.

I have the double cell for a fair amount.
It's unused.

If you'd like to make a purchase, kindly contact :08128714767

Am using ZINOX W76TH. Yesterday I mistakenly plugged in an alternate charger with reverse polarity and smoke came out through the fan area. since then, charging light is not coming up and laptop is not powering on battery(dont know if there is power left in the battery)
please help me diagnose the problem. Am in Abuja.
Hello there...

The last time I checked, laptops aren't smokers grin.
Not funny

Note- *this is not a DIY thing"

pretty simple- Something got burnt on the board and needs replacement

So, take to a technician for further diagnosis. Hopefully a replacement will be found.

So sorry about the incident

If i understand your post, you're trying to say that it powers on with the charger plug in but doesn't power on ba3 alone?

Remove the battery, plug the charger alone and power it on and see if it will on.

After that, remove the charger, insert only the ba3 and power it on to see if it will power on.


2. Insert the ba3, connect the charger and power it on, when it gets into desktop move the cursor to the ba3 indicator and see what is written there.


I want to know if it is plug in charging, plug in not charging or ba3 not detected.
No. 2 is a great suggestion, @yourstruly5 we'd love a feed back from you...

Hello

Sorry to tell you this- Get a computer technician to check the board.

I would have asked you to change the battery (an option you can try right now), but when I read that
the laptop powers by self on charger and does not power on battery, my thoughts swerved and a little.

Attend to the board now that you got the chance, not until when you get frequent black screen.

The culprit is one application you recently installed or try to copy huge files at once and it block the copy and paste feature.

Look out for this application if you have them installed on your system, Skype and notepad ++.

If you have the above application, I'll advice you uninstall with revo uninstaller, and delete all remaining files and folders. Then you install back later.

You can also run task manager, check if RDP Clipboard manager is running, then kill the process.


If after all this and the copy paste option is not there, I'll advice you reload the operating system.
Hi,
I thought we could avoid this, but hey, we have no choice. One more program you should uninstall is Adobe reader.

Gud day everyone here
WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL
My boss just brought home a laptop with window 7 professional and the option to copy a file isn't there... I cannot copy a file to another drive or out of the system. Pls anyone with knowledge on how to undo this setting should help out. Google didn't provide the exact explanation.
... "Google didn't provide the exact explanation "

Hello there,
Why should they?
If they did, it will be filled with technical jargon which makes the case kinda worse- cos' you'll want to try even the unknown grin

So first and foremost I'd spare you the jargon and tell you to try the following :

1. Some drives (flash drives, external hard drives) might be write protected. In other words, you can't copy to them. To be sure if your external drive isn't the issue, try copying from another system or try another storage device.

2.After trying No. 1 and it's still the same, you may want to perform system restore. System restore restores your system back to a time when it worked fine.
Here how to go about it>>>

On the start menu, search system restore >on the list of options that appears, click on "system restore " >follow through the prompts > when asked to choose a restore point choose an earlier date, probably the 2nd option on the list>> system restore once started cannot be stopped, so make sure your laptop is plugged to a power source.

The restore point is meant to erase many things that have to do with the "present" and take us to the "past" when things were fine.

If you feel you're gonna screw things up, give to someone a bit computer savvy... If you see what I mean.

By the way, is it a used laptop or new one?

*let's have your feed back *

Hello guys, I'm having an annoying issue with my modem. The connection is unsteady as it disconnects every now and then after connection.

I will really appreciate it if you guys can help me identify an appropriate solution to this problem. Thanks.
Hi there,

So, we have to be sure which is the issue- the laptop or the modem. Try the modem on another laptop.

Uninstall the program of the modem, then re-install the program. I think you should try this first

Let's have your feedback.

Hello.
If you just installed the OS, consider the following:
1. Install the required drivers- you may visit www.drp.su/en
There should be a Wi-Fi button on the keyboard or look out for it somewhere.

Don't also forget that your Wi-Fi will display "no network found" if indeed there are no networks around.

Once, when I was a novice, my Wi-Fi button showed red even while I toggled the switch. Guess what I did to my self when I discovered it was the absence of network grin.


2. If you have installed the required drivers and the issue persists, try another Wi-Fi card.

*hope this helps *

GambaOsaka:
I always thought my dad had some kind of spiritual prowess because of the following reasons;

We all knew his car honk sound and could recognise that sound 200 metres away. We would rush upstairs to pick our books and form reading. He would come in , we will all greet and continue 'reading', next thing we would hear is "Have I not told you boys to stop playing ball downstairs?".

Secondly, at times he would tell you not to put the TV on while he's away. And immediately he leaves, we switch it on, then in the evening when we hear his car honk we switch off the TV and pick our books. He walks in, move close to where the TV set is and then he goes again " Who switched on this television?".

When I grew much older I found out he never had any magical powers. We were just being kids.
We had sweats all over our bodies and the TV would have been heated up. All he had to do was to touch the TV. grin
