Want to Make Money Online?

Such a funny question you might say, Of course all of us want to make money online! So let me try focus on the answer rather than the question then.

Making money online is not easy or simply as some people want to try to tell us, but it is sure to be possible. What is the internet all about? PEOPLE. So what you need is traffic! Yes, traffic is going to help you make money online.

Traffic can be converted into money with advertising, affiliate systems, selling your own products or services or even by promoting other people’s products. It all depends on your niche!

So research your niche first and than we can talk on how to monetize this! Drop me an e-mail with your thoughts as usual and would be glad to discuss with you at no cost of course.

Website Page Names Importance

Lets start by understanding well what we are talking about, the top address bar in your browser displays the location you currently are within the page, the page name refers to the link being displayed visually on screen for the user.

The principle is to have page names that are 100% readable by people and machines alike. This will have 2 main benefits;

1. The people in your website would understand better what the page is about

2. Search engines would be able to relate the page content to the page name

These 2 advantageous are not all but they are the most 2 important in order to make a decision to go the SEO friendly way and have your page names developed in readable good English or of course the language you are targeting.

Even websites with a database driven page can achieve the same result.

An example of a web page that will talk about ‘web design is: http://www.ebn.com.mt/web-design.htm were the page name already says the content is going to be related to web design.

If in doubt, email me as usual,

Rules For Trading

Gosh, this article I will talk about couldn’t have been in front of me a few weeks ago???

This is possibly the feeling of alot of people after reading such a truthful article with possibly seen basic information and a basic bullet list, or the usual do and dont’s but hey this is one hell of a true list.

I was browsing linkedin this morning and found this article from a website myforexspace written by Maria from fx-megaforex and in a nutshell it says the following:

Common Mistakes to avoid in trading:

1. Not waiting for the proper trading signal: This tends to happen a lot during those quiet times when the market is consolidating. Some traders even receive the forex signal and open the position thinking they will gain more money, and don´t wait to enter when the entry point had been reach. Don´t do this, wait, be patience, go for a walk, talk to your friends. Just wait for the perfect trading opportunity.

2. Inaccurate use of timeframes: For example, entering on a small timeframe and holding out for a profit target on a much bigger timeframe. Additionally, you can enter a trade based on a bigger timeframe, thus using that larger timeframe for stop placement, but taking advantage of a smaller timeframe for confirmation and entry.

3. Keeping a lose position: Instead of accepting that fact and closing the trade, you let it run, hoping for the market to return. Sure, there might be times that this works out, but more often than not we will just have to close the entire trade at a bigger loss.

4. Risking to much: Never risk more than you can afford to lose. There is rule of 5% of your total account. So don´t risk more in one trade, Forex can literally clean out your account with just one bad position.

5. Trade without looking to major economic & political news: Please at the beginning of the week, always look for the economic news that will have big impact in the currencies. Check out this events, and trade accordingly. If you are a beginner or newcomer, don´t trade news until you are well advance. News are very volatile and the currencies move real fast, so be careful.

Again, after reading this and considering I have a few years of forex knowledge now I still say this is great information to have if you want to make money online and make money with forex.

Happy Trading!
