Recently I feel that spam emails are getting smarter. Every morning when I open up my mailbox, I always see 2 to 3 spam mails in my inbox which suppose to be delivered into spam/junk/bulk folder.
I am using Gmail, yahoo mail and hotmail. Here are the statistic of spam emails.
Are spammers getting smarter? Or spam filter become weaker?
Oh… long time didn’t blog about things happening on the internet. Today I found a nice tool which I want try out, I found it at LiewCF … but unfoturnately, the site keep showing this error message:
DEBUG INFORMATION:
Connect: Lost connection to MySQL server during query
Maybe the site has too much of visitors at the time I visit. I will try it out later.
The tool I mentioned is call “Page Strength”. It is a site that tells you the importance and visibility of a web page. It is like Google PageRank but I think this one seems more interesting. Page Strength use many factors to determine the “strength” of a site:
Anyway, two of the strengths from “Page Strenth” are based on Google’s statistic.

Was damm boring yesterday … the whole day did nothing … while surfing on some online game sites, suddently I recall one of my friend introduced a game called Travian (www.travian.com). Without thinking much, I registered the game and was playing with it.
Travian is a browser based MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Game). It is a web based strategy game. This type of is most suitable for those who want to play light game but don’t want to stay in front of computer for hours. To play this game, you must be patient because everything in this game need time.. like build a building, upgrade, attack…. and etc.

The upgrading process just went smooth. Before you upgrades yours, please make sure you have made a backup of the important files (e.g. wp-config.php, .htaccess). Please make sure you follow the instruction given in the wordpress upgrade page.
Found this funny video at google video. On of the most popular video… This guy talks about all the bad thing about mac! Mac users… is that true?
Found this interesting article from problogger.net and find that might help you in increase your blog’s traffic:
Three simple actions that doubled my website traffic in 30 days
…
- First, I made the most of Technorati tags. I tagged every key word in each of my posts. Initially I did this manually but them I discovered a WordPress plugin called SimpleTags that made the job a whole lot easier.
I found that by tagging my post effectively they were getting a lot more attention then their untagged counterparts, and as an added advantage I was getting focused, quality traffic to the site!
- I leveraged my existing website. I’ve been running my business website for a few years and that was getting modest levels of traffic that was relevant to my blog - so why not try to drive some of that to my new blog! I placed a few FeedBurner headline animator blocks on some of my most popular pages and after a day or so I noticed a significant increase in traffic for 5 minutes worth of work on my part.
- Finally, I made effective use of trackback links to popular sites. If I commented on a post on another site I would make sure that I set up the appropriate trackback for it. The results from this are varied depending on the site and post that you are linking to but since I liked to comment and interact with the wider blogosphere anyway, it was free traffic!
…
What I think…
For me, the content is the king! When you have good quality of content, search engine and traffic will come to your site automatically and slowly. Keywords are one of the key element, try target more niche keywords instead of general keywords. Please do not over mention the keywords, search engine might think you are spamming with keywords. Put those targeting keyword in page title, keywords (meta tag), title of article and first paragraph of the article. Although some search engines (e.g. Google) do not recognize keywords in meta tags but the is no reason we don’t want to put it in for other search engines.
Hope this will help :)
