Email isn’t dead. It’s alive and kicking! It remains the #1 way to sell your products and services online.

Here then, are 20 ways to build trust with your email subscribers.

1. Use E-mail Marketing to Build Permission-Based Lists. Prospects who give you permission to market to them are most likely to buy.

2. Use a Reputable E-mail Delivery Service. If your e-mail doesn’t get delivered, you won’t make any sales; getting it delivered is a full-time job.

3. Give Web Visitors Reasons To Opt- In, And Set Their Expectations Properly. You must offer some sort of premium to entice visitors to give up their names and e-mail addresses.

4. Avoid Spam Complaints with Frequent, Consistent Mailings. Surprising as it sounds, mailing more often can reduce spam complaints.

5. Use Autoresponders as Robotic Sales Agents. A sequence of contacts is a powerful way of delivering your sales message.

Firstly, What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an innovative payment network and a new kind of money.

Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of bitcoins is carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin is open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls Bitcoin and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, Bitcoin allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system.


How does Bitcoin work?

From a user perspective, Bitcoin is nothing more than a mobile app or computer program that provides a personal Bitcoin wallet and allows a user to send and receive bitcoins with them. This is how Bitcoin works for most users.

Behind the scenes, the Bitcoin network is sharing a public ledger called the "block chain". This ledger contains every transaction ever processed, allowing a user’s computer to verify the validity of each transaction. The authenticity of each transaction is protected by digital signatures corresponding to the sending addresses, allowing all users to have full control over sending bitcoins from their own Bitcoin addresses. In addition, anyone can process transactions using the computing power of specialized hardware and earn a reward in bitcoins for this service. This is often called "mining". To learn more about Bitcoin, you can consult the dedicated page and the original paper.


Who created Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is the first implementation of a concept called "cryptocurrency", which was first described in 1998 by Wei Dai on the cypherpunks mailing list, suggesting the idea of a new form of money that uses cryptography to control its creation and transactions, rather than a central authority. The first Bitcoin specification and proof of concept was published in 2009 in a cryptography mailing list by Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi left the project in late 2010 without revealing much about himself. The community has since grown exponentially with many developers working on Bitcoin.

Satoshi’s anonymity often raised unjustified concerns, many of which are linked to misunderstanding of the open-source nature of Bitcoin. The Bitcoin protocol and software are published openly and any developer around the world can review the code or make their own modified version of the Bitcoin software. Just like current developers, Satoshi’s influence was limited to the changes he made being adopted by others and therefore he did not control Bitcoin. As such, the identity of Bitcoin’s inventor is probably as relevant today as the identity of the person who invented paper.


Who controls the Bitcoin network?

Nobody owns the Bitcoin network much like no one owns the technology behind email. Bitcoin is controlled by all Bitcoin users around the world. While developers are improving the software, they can’t force a change in the Bitcoin protocol because all users are free to choose what software and version they use. In order to stay compatible with each other, all users need to use software complying with the same rules. Bitcoin can only work correctly with a complete consensus among all users. Therefore, all users and developers have a strong incentive to protect this consensus.

Over time you will realize that there are certain skills every student needs to survive university campus in Nigeria.


Without these skills, you might end up struggling till you learn it the hard way. I suggest you devote time to mastering these skills just before you head to campus.

How do you combine your lectures and a part-time job? Or to create a side hustle while still in school? What about getting to pass exams even without attending class? Finally, how do you get to enjoy yourself like others even with a small monthly allowance?
Nobody will teach you all these, either you learn right now or you learn from experience.

I have compiled a list of necessary skills every student needs to have if you must survive in the campus. In case I miss any point, feel free to add up yours.

1. Cramming
Imagine you show up in school just a few days to exams after a lengthy period outside the school. How do you get to tag along and still make good grades?

I wouldn’t advise you go into the exam hall feeling so blank, or asking how an equation was derived. You should know what you need to write, the rest will sort itself out at the appropriate time.

Cramming is a skill that needs to be mastered and utilized properly. As a young undergraduate, I used it so well and ended up with a very high second class result.
The only negative aspect of it is that; immediately after the purpose of cramming is passed, you forget everything you crammed.

2. Begging Skills
This covers all aspect of your student life. After skipping classes and you need someone to teach you all has been taught?
Reaching out to a friend to borrow you some money for Friday nights out? Or selling fake stories to your parents to get an extra allowance. All in all, you need all those white lies to get what you want without stress.

A trailer driver and his conductor have been shot dead by suspected cultists along the Port Harcourt-Owerri road.

DAILY POST gathered that four others who were travelling in a commercial bus have also been kidnapped in what seem to be cult-related in Omerelu Community.

Eyewitnesses say there was a lot of shelling between rival cult groups who went on rampage between Omerelu and Ubima communities both in Ikwerre Local Government area.

One of the eyewitnesses who spoke with our correspondent, Nnanna Chima, said passengers travelling to and from Port Harcourt were stranded for more than five hours until the military officers salvaged the situation.

“It was like we were in a war zone. The sound of the guns continued for a long time. About six hours I guess until Police officers came told us that they were Icelanders and Deygbam cult groups.

Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has lashed out at referee Mike Dean, after he awarded West Brom a controversial late penalty for a Calum Chambers.

Jay Rodriguez converted from the spot to deny the Gunners victory on New Year’s Eve, after Alexis Sanchez’s deflected free-kick looked set to give them all three points at the Hawthorns.

“It wasn’t a penalty. It was not a deliberate handball. When you are as close as that, it’s impossible to play football. Where do you put your hands? You have no pockets in your shorts.

“The referee has not seen it. That’s my opinion, he will tell you that he has seen it. I don’t want to waste my time with them, we have to live with the decision, swallow it, and go to the next game.

“I’m angry because we have seen the same things again. I did fight very hard for the referees to become professional many years ago with David Dein. But I see no improvement.

The Federal Government of Nigeria, Tuesday, threw its weight on the proscription of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, and the categorisation of IPOB as a terrorist organisation by both the south-east governors and the Nigerian army, respectively, saying the activities of the group are similar to those of other terrorist groups.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed disclosed this on Tuesday when he appeared on a live TV programme “Good Morning Nigeria” on the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA).

According to him, the federal government equally knows the foreign countries supporting and funding the activities of IPOB in Nigeria and has kick-started steps at blocking IPOB’s funding.

Alhaji Lai Mohammed also said that IPOb has written to those foreign countries, lying to them that Nigeria is a country where Muslims persecute Christians and that in Nigeria, genocide is carried out by the state.

According to him, “There are a lot of arguments regarding the constitutionality of the action of the military and the South East governors. “People must realise that we are dealing with issue of national security and I do not think that the military and the governors should fold their arms while the country is set ablaze.

“I have heard a lot of comments as to whether the military has the right to declare IPOB, a terrorist group “What the military has done is to catalogue all the activities of IPOB, which are not different from that of terrorists groups,” he said. Mohammed said IPOB set up a para-military organisation, a parallel military group, Biafra Secret Service and Biafra National Guard. He said the group were attacking army installations and soldiers at check points, extorting money from innocent people. “IPOB activities are not jokes.
