Why I choose UK Education

In todays world education is the most necessary thing required to lead a prosperous life. Nelson Mandela said “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”.
It is said that if u give food to needy he will survive for 1-2 days, if money is given he will survive for 1-2 months but if we will give him knowledge and education he will make his own life. Today, knowledge is the greatest asset.


Nowadays education has taken very wide shape. Each country in the world is providing better education system to the students. From USA to China, UK to Australia, India to New Zealand, every country is providing different education system. Once US was top on the list of best education given to the students but now the shift has been made and UK is emerging as one of the best countries to give the students the best education. Students from all over the world (from US also) are pursuing their education courses in UK. UK is providing their students a fair chance of getting high education and better job facilities without much discrimination. Courses in UK are generally shorter than courses provided by many other countries thus, making tuition fees less than what other countries take . Also, being a Indian i would opt to study in UK as UK is also providing Indian students a good amount of facilities. The study methodology in the UK is far better than more countries. Also, the people living in UK are more friendly and they mix with us very easily, making a student from different country comfortable with them. Also UK have diverse culture and a student will find many people of his own religion or caste. This all makes study in UK simple and easy-going. That’s the reason I want to pursue a course in UK.



I want to pursue a MBA course from UK. Everybody dream of Cambridge and Oxford but in my case it is a different story. I want to pursue a MBA course from London Business School (LBS), one of the renowned business school of the world. Established in 1964, it is consistently ranked one of top 2 schools of Europe, one of the best in world. It is a dream school for students who want to pursue in MBA. The school has over 35000 alumni in more than 130 countries. The LBS campus located in Marylebone is one of the finest campus according to me and it always fascinates me. The school also have an astonishing international profile and have strong partnerships with Columbia Business School, Hong Kong University Business School, the Indian School of Business and the China Europe International Business School (CEIBS).



The MBA Programme at London Business School has one of the world's largest international exchange programmes. Each year approximately 35 per cent of second-year MBAs spend a term abroad at one of over 30 partner schools, including NYU Stern School of Business, IESE Business School, Booth School of Business of the The University of Chicago, The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, UCLA Anderson School of Management, the MIT Sloan School of Management, Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, Columbia Business School, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley, McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University, Indian School of Business among others, which is completely jaw dropping and this always attracts me to this prestigious school. The school has his own reputation and own fame in this world. Studying in this eminent and honoured institution is a great gratification. And I will give me very best to be a part of this leading institution.

Instagram announces "INSTAGRAM DIRECT"


At an event in New York City today, Instagram announced Instagram Direct, a new messaging feature available today for iOS and Android that lets users send text, video, and photo messages to each other privately. "Communication is not about photography, necessarily," said CEO Kevin Systrom. "If we were about photography we'd be built into cameras, but we're not, we're built into phones." Instagram up to this point focused on photos and videos — "moments" — as Instagram calls them. Messaging adds a third dimension to the app that lets people communicate using words, Systrom says, but more importantly to do so privately, if you'd like. "Sometimes you want to be able to share not with everyone, but just with a specific group," he said.




Once your'e finished editing a photo in Instagram, you can now send your photo to up to 15 people, or to just one person. Each conversation needs to start with a photo, however — you can't send just text right off the bat. If the friend you're sending a message to is online, their avatar lights up in real-time inside a chat to show that they've seen or liked your message. A new Inbox button adorns the top right corner of your Instagram home screen that lets you instantly tap into your recent messages. If someone sends you a direct message while you're browsing the app, a badge pops up on top of the Inbox button. Like on Twitter, only the people that you follow can send you photos and videos. Your groups can be for your college buddies, classmates, or your husband or wife, Systrom says.

Real-time likes and chat bring this feature alive," Systrom says. When asked about whether ephemeral messaging, a la Snapchat, could ever make its way into Instagram Direct, Systrom responded: "There's definitely a space for ephemerality in general whether it's text or photos or videos, but Instagram is focused on capturing the world's moments. The important part in Instagram [Direct] is being able to go back to [photos] in order to have that conversation, and if they're not there anymore you can't have that conversation and see who has liked it."
Today's announcement marks Instagram's first foray into messaging. Considering the astronomical popularity of apps like WhatsApp, Kik, Viber, and more recently Snapchat, many speculated that seeing Instagram's first messaging product was only a matter of time. Private messaging, however, is far from a new idea. Since its early days Twitter, for example, had its own private message page for users, but only this past week did it bring that feature to the forefront. Instagram, on the other hand, has spent its time this year rolling out video posts, a Windows Phone app, photo tagging, an iOS 7 refresh, and its first ads.

Instagram doesn't explicitly face WhatsApp and Snapchat as competition in the photo-sharing space, but the company has seen apps like these eat away at the attention spans of its users. Snapchat lets users share disappearing photos, unlike Instagram, but if it in some ways fulfills the same utility as Instagram — sharing moments with family and friends — it becomes a threat. By adding private messaging to its app, Instagram is now one step closer to these competitors, but also more useful to its users.

5 Reasons why your blog readers would never come back again to your blog


Here are 5 main reasons why your visitor would never come back to your site again




1. If you do not have good blog design 

A new visitor can be impressed first by your blog design. A good blog design does not just mean an attractive design. If it is designed haphazardly, I tell you, they won’t like to see even your post title, leave alone the whole content. And then, first impression is always the last impression. So make sure that your blog is simple and easily navigable. Over-designed blog can be slow while loading, which is one of the top reasons why readers usually get away from any blog. One needs to make sure that its visibility is clear with good combination of colors. A strain in eyes due to over designing of blog can be yet another reason why reader would refrain away from your blog. Always make sure that the best things are prominent and visible to the readers. An attractive design can bring a visitor for once but wisely designed blog can compel them to come back again to your site.



2. If there is more ad than the information. 

Many prominent bloggers differ from struggling blogger in the way that they give the information and content of the blog more importance than the advertisement. Many bloggers starts a blog, works hard on it, get followers and then just to make few amounts of dollars in quick time, loads dozens of ads on their site and their blog looks like an advertisement times. This is when a blog lack its credibility. Why does one has to kill its probable brand of millions dollar value to make quick couple of hundred dollars. Such short term goal of a blogger does not help them in long run. This is one big difference between quick money making blogs and huge money making blogs. Blogging is a never ending process but such idiotic an act can end up your loyal readers. I too have left dozens of them just because of that reason.



3. If your writing is not good enough.

This is one aspect every bloggers need to take care of. Your words might be simple but could attract a lot of readers and encourage them to come again for it would create a connection between you and your readers. One would not appreciate as much if you tend to choose those tough and tricky words that would make readers to refer a dictionary. There are many bloggers who does not only choose smart words for search engines but also choose words judiciously for their readers. Writing for readers does not only mean to be too human while writing. One has to take care that the words they put in does not create a negative vibes all around. And good reader can easily predicts out your personality out of your writing. Your differently persona can be big hindrance in making and growing of your blog. Decency in writing can make up a lot for any writers.



4. If you don’t respect your readers.

Respecting its readers has been one of the major reasons for success for many bloggers. One needs to interact and make network with reader. If you look down a visitor as just a single person, you would lose thousands in the process. Give them the attention they need. Make them friend. Help them whenever they need help. Don’t differentiate them with your ego. Your writing may be top class but you’d never acquire that authority if they don’t appreciate. It is always better if we know a visitor by their name than by their blog or site. Your readers may differ your writings on a point and might show it with comments but don’t just ignore it. Convince them with some other point and respect their opinion too. You’ll see that these critics always add up vigor to your blog and thus contribute a lot in taking your blog onto a higher level.



5. If you are not honest.

Who doesn't love honesty? There exist an old adage “Honesty is the best Policy” and the same is very much applicable in blogging too. If you cheat your readers, not only they leave your blog but also endorse others to do the same. Cheating in blogging is one dangerous thing for whole blogosphere. Many blogger cheat the other blogger by copying their content. This does not only hurt and discourage a blogger but it also create a negative effect on their day to day lives because many bloggers blog for their livelihood. Plagiarism should be discouraged from all corners. In this context, a blogger can only help other blogger. Today, if every bloggers adopt a goodwill approach, the blogosphere would surely be more a better place to be in.


Over to you.

There are many reasons a reader would not love to visit a blog again. I have given 5 reasons. If you have some other reasons, you can share it here by commenting.

AdSense disapproval causes


Common mistakes that every blogger do .







1. Privacy Policy : 


One of the common mistakes that every Blogger makes. Even though there are people out there who say that having a Privacy Policy for a Blog doesn’t makes sense but they are wrong.
A Privacy actually describes to your readers about what they will get on your Blog , what they should do and what they should not. So obviously there is nothing bad in having a Privacy Policy. While it can affect somehow on your Adsense Approval, you must give it a try.


           



2. About Page 
An about has major role and importance if you don’t want to apply for Adsense. But when it comes to AdSense, they are about Zero chances of getting approved if you are not showing this page. About page simply describes about you and your Blog. This will not only help you establish a relationship with readers but it will also make them trust upon you.


                                              

3. Contact Us Page 

It’s quite obvious that everyone has his/her own opinion. What one of your readers likes may be bothering someone else. Than it is better to give them opportunity to speak up to you and tell how they feel about your Blog, what they want to be edited , what they liked or hated.
It will also show the Google Adsense Team that is viewing your site that you actually care about your readers and not only the money and Adsense.


                                 

4. Name/ Email Verification 

Make sure to put you Name and Email address in some easily visible area like About Me and Contact Us pages. It will confirm to Google Adsense Team that it is the same person who applied for Adsense and not some spam, crappy bots.


                                         


5. Age Verification 
Google Adsense is not for under 18 people. So I advice you to be accurate while typing your age.


                                       

6. Minimum Number of Posts 

There is no exact answer. Not even one. Because I have seen very established Blogs with 400+ posts and their owner telling me that Google Adsense is rejecting them while somewhere, people with 40, 50 posts are enjoying making money. Exactly what I said that there is no actual answer. However, we can always predict things. According to my experience, you should only apply after you have more than 70 posts. Posts length should must be 500+ words too.


                                                     

7. Design 
Your Blog is the biggest thing after Content. This represents your expertise, experience and Professionalism. So be careful because anything can kill your Chances.


                                       


8. Content Type
Be careful with what type of content you are publishing. Because it is something that truly matters. Google Adsense is not for Pornographic, Illegal Items, Drugs or other Blogs / Sites like that. Also Adsense team won’t be willing to allow you to step in if you own a Non English Blog. Having posts shorter than 300 words in length is also Red Signal.


                                               

9. Providing Value 

Don’t complain about not making money and don’t clearly state that your are Blogging for Money only and have no other interest in it. Because this will show them that you will not be providing values to your readers any day. Hence another Red Light glows up.


                                               

10. Top Level Domain 

Those are gone far away when Adsense used to approve “Blogspot” and “WordPress.com” Blogs. As for today, you must have your own unique domain that specifies your Blog. If you don’t have one yet, stop dreaming about getting approved with Sub domains and go buy a Top Level Domain.
Another important thing about domain is it’s age. Because for most of Asian Countries, Adsense has placed an age restriction. They don’t accept any sites before they are 6 months old.


                                         

11. Other Ad Networks 

If you have any other Ads placed like Chitika, Clicksor or anything, it’s time to drop them off.
Even Google Adsense allows you to use other Ad Networks along with them, it’s better to remove the ads before Applying and don’t put them back until you get a reply from Adsense Team.


                                           

12. Paid Traffic 
Google hates the sites that are getting Paid traffic and mostly penalizes them so there is not a damn chance of getting Adsense Approval letter for a site that is getting paid traffic. You can bring traffic from Search Engines or any other way you want but if you want to earn via Google Adsense the right way, paid traffic is not a solution.

Best AdSense Alternatives

When it comes to blog monetization, the first name hat would sense in your name is Google AdSense. Since past few years, AdSense has been the backbone income of majority of bloggers. Google AdSense has been the most widely used Pay-per-click Advertising network due to several chief reasons like Variety in Ads and most prominently higher revenue than any other ad network but presently it does not offer small publishers with Google AdSense account due to the new strict rules and regulations introduced in it,. Often most of the AdSense applications submitted get rejected. So, it has become pretty difficult to get approved by AdSense. A creamy top layer enjoys the AdSense premium publisher status but all are not lucky. Sometimes AdSense itself bans if a website violates its rules and regulations. In such circumstances, any website or blog owner has to look out for the AdSense alternatives.

Below, I have compiled a list of Best Google AdSense Alternatives and can help you to generate handsome amount especially if you have massive traffic on your blog.


List of Best AdSense Alternatives



CHITIKA

Chitika is a Cost per Click ad network which was founded in 2003 and it's a leading advertising company. It is one of the best alternative to Google AdSense. Chitika does approve well established blogs. This ad network has mainly been built for blogs/websites that attracts majority of its traffic from US and UK. We can customize the ads well using Chititka. You can even make extra income using their referral program.

Payments from Chitika can be received via PayPal and cheque system. Minimum pay out for PayPal is $10 and for cheque is $50

CLICKSOR

Clicksor is one of the most popular advertising networks available on the Internet and is counted in best AdSense alternatives. This ad networks allows publishers to earn through different as-formats like In-line Tesxt Ads, Contextual Ads (banner and text) and more. We can earn upto 60% of the revenue share, depending upon the performance advertisers attains from your website placements and clicks. Well, the pop-up ads by Clicksor look pretty annoying often but the earnings we can make through it are pretty good.

You can receive payments via cheque or PayPal and minimum pay out is $50.

INFOLINKS

Infolinks is the best In-text advertising program. It is an advertising program which provides Text advertisements for all text based blogs. The major benefit of Infolinks is that they approve all blogs with ease. Just apply for Infolinks and your blog will get approved within 24 hours.

But the drawback of this ad network is CPC is quite low. Payments option are PayPal and Bank Wire Transfer and the Minimum payment is $50 for PayPal and debit cards, $100 for Bank Wire Transfer.

ADBRITE

It is one of the oldest and popular advertising networks. Here when you join and get approved by this ad network, ad won't display on your site instantly but it would get displayed only when someone buys that ad place. We can step our ad price on monthly and weekly basis. Even you have complete rights to reject the advertisement.

You can withdraw your money from Paypal, Cheques and the Minimum payout is $100


KONTERA

Kontera is an In-text advertising network which is quite similar to infolinks. They scan our website and keywords and match them with their database and show Ads accordingly. To get approved by Kontera and make handy amount of money, our blog needs to have huge page impressions. It is a good network of running ads scheme making it's mark to AdSense Alternatives.

KOntera payouts are good with high CTR. Here you can withdraw your money from PayPal. Cheque, EFT and minimum payout is $50



Although there is no Best Google AdSense Alternative as Google pays the best and has much higher CPC as compared to other other networks but if your Google AdSense is banned or it's review application is rejected, you can go for the above Alternatives to AdSense.
