Something you dont know about Ymail.com

I just write a article about Ymail.com. I discover Yahoo have another email address domain, it calls Ymail.com, it is similar to Gmail.com, but this service belongs to Yahoo. The layout and everything are same with Yahoo.

But when you log in to Ymail.com, you must log with full email address name as Hotmail. Do you know how to use Ymail? How to send big files inside Ymail? How to get more secure with your email? Find more information about Ymail.com.

Do not put all your eggs...

I learn it from a interesting article of a Huber, he show a discussion  of webmaster about Google recent algorithm change. Many of them lose 30% to 70% of their traffic and all of you know traffic is money. With the loss of traffic, we lost our money. If we rely on Google and when they change something, we lose our work and start again to follow them.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket, this is the key to reduce our loss. When we diversity our income, example: traffic from many sources, if one of them change something, we can lost from this source and remain others.
And I agree with him the main stream is important and may be weak point. Because we make money from it, so it has many competitors and with the change, it will be a big affect to our income.

More, if your blog violate or you have make the fault with their policy, you can get banned anytime. This is fair, because we do not pay anything and we should follow their rules. So if you want more freedom and more fresh air, you must pay for this.
At paid version (self-hosting) : you need to pay for hosting and domain fee. The cost is not too high, but it is waste if you do not have proper plan, and give up during the game.
We also can buy a domain name and forward your free blog to your own domain, this is a economy option can save your money and when you think you need to expand your blog you can host at a hosting company .

How to increase traffic to blog ?

Your traffic will come from 3 main sources : Search Engines , Referring Sites, Direct Traffic, Others
Search Engines: they come most from Google 60-80%, Bing, Yahoo and others is the rest. If your traffic site most from Search Engine, your site have some rank in search Engine , and when your rank increase, you can get more traffic from Search Engine. How to increase your site rank? You need to build the back link by post comment at blogs, forums, others site allow share post for backlink
I often use some site for get some good back link:

Xomba : The site with pagerank 4, when you register and create a new post , they will two type for posting: article and bookmark.
Article is normal article which you can add your link embed inside the content.
Bookmark is easily to make with 50 word relate to your links , the title is your title post or your blog name or your keyword your want to promote.
Xomba is allow to add Google Adsense , but with a limit traffic , you may not get much from them , the best thing is the back links you make is get high rank on Google with quick time.

Redgage : (page rank 4). you just sign up, and go to upload at right corner upload your link with title, tag, descripsion and your link. Redgage also provide a bonus , if you a lucky you can get some $ for fun.

Snipsly: (page rank 3) is a good place for back link also. You register at Snipsly and post a small article with your link inside content.

Referring Sites : This can come from social bookmarking , forum post, or blog comment post.... 

The volume from them may varies and can go up or down depend on people trend and also your interesting content. I often post at forum which allow the signature ( link to my sites); or blog to expand the network, post at dofollow forum , or dofollow blog is also a good idea to build back links and get referring traffic. You can read more about Dofollow at here:

http://hubpages.com/_bestlist/hub/Dofollow-and-Nofollow-Back-links

The social bookmarking is waste your time , so I submit my link to Digg and StumbleUpon and let people vote by themself.

Another tips is add the social bookmarking button to your blog. People like your post will bookmark and may share to others , this will increase your traffic site fast.

Direct Traffic : This traffic from your loyal readers, they remember your site url  and type direct or someone add your site is homepage. The people may increase your page rank , your Alexa rank and may also spread your site.
