MAKE YOUR BLOG STAND OUT FROM THE REST.

MAKE YOUR BLOG STAND OUT FROM THE REST.



Plain blogs are very boring. They are just like those stores that during festivities like Christmas they don’t bother to add those unique lightnings to their premises neither do they to do some neat arrangement to their stores that would have otherwise given them the much attraction that is required to not only capture the audience eyes but also to finally lead them to those particular shops. This instead chases the majority of customers who might have indeed visited the stores and made the purchases. Those few who may find their ways to search stores may not stay there for long and might end up living without finding that product they might have wished to purchase despite it being available. They might also not come back again.

The same apply to blogs. It is true that content is the key reason as to why readers may want to visit your blog but you cannot overrule the role played by the design of your blog. A good looking, catchy and elegant blog is likely to attract lots of blog readers and most importantly help in maintaining the leaders in your blog for longer periods. Blog may be fantastic content wisely but poorly designed. What are results of this? You will attract a good number of readers and at the same time you will always lose them even before they can even learn of what other topics you blog about or even before they can hover there cursors around and click on that adsence or that bidvertiser ad that would have generated you that long awaited dollar that you are looking to earn online. I can also assure you that 95% of the visitors might never pay your blog a visit again. Just look at how much harm a poorly designed blog may cost you? Your content generates much traffic and then 95 percent are not willing to pay your blog a 2nd visit? Think about that before you can even continue posting good content on poorly designed blogger accounts.

Blogger.com has various well designed templates that are uniquely designed for bloggers and are easy to use. Most importantly they are fully customizable by you and just like creating a blog doesn’t need any programmer skills also doing this requires none of these skills. Its only calls for a blogger to know of his topics and kind of audience then choose the right templates and customize accordingly.

Adding gadgets to your blog is another of making sure that your blog doesn’t look like a plain empty store that I talked about in my introduction of this blog. Many bloggers don’t try this feature not because it is hard but because they don’t like navigating around the blogger account and settings well enough you can choose to add a gadget that is relevant to what you talk about in your blog. For example if it’s about sports, technology or politics. The choice is yours. You can do this very easily.

You simply visit bloggergadgets.net, and once you are their browse the category that suits your topic your blog content click the button next to the screenshot that says ‘add to the blog’ and you shall be taken to blogger where you can chose to which blog you want to add the gadget and after deciding the blog click configure the gadget. Then save and add the gadget. You will be good to go.

Olx.co.ke the most ideal and perhabs the leading online marketplace in kenya



We are in a new digital era and almost everything and everybody wants to be associated with this word “online”.  Consequently we have been forced to change the way we carry out our normal day to day activities by one factor or the other. For example in this generation it will make no sense for one to travel from marsabit to Nairobi to window shop on a  certain product then return back with the aim of coming  back to purchase it one day when he or she has got enough money to purchase it. Telecommunication companies like safaricom, airtel  yu and orange have invested heavily on internet services thus ensuring that almost  all of us are just a click away from all you may need from that phone that u dream of having to that vehicle u one day want to ride on and perhaps that beautiful house you want to have as you continue living under this  planet. And to those of you  who are looking for employment you need not  spend thousands you don’t have on commuting as with internet you just ought to sit down relax and complete everything from the comfort of your sitting room.

Due to this I look at three famous market place where one can comfortably do shopping and sell anything and from everywhere in Kenya.
This is so far the leading consumer to consume marketplace in Kenya where individuals and businesses sell buy, see rent and leas goods both used and new and most importantly from almost every corner of the country. It draws 89% of its traffic here in Kenya with almost 70% of its users having learnt of it on television advertisements where it carries heavy advertisements and 15% of the users being referred to the site by Google, yahoo bing among other web search engines. Also an important thing that is worth to note is that olx.co.ke attracts surfers of 25-45 years. This segment of population comprises of young enthusiastic businessmen and consumers. What does this information show you? Definitely as a digital minded guy you will conclude for yourself that definitely here you will find everything from that phone to that computer/laptop to that wall unit and even a vehicle you have always wanted to own.
When you visit olx.co.ke either by computer or phone you will be amazed by what you meet online. To have a look on olx via your phone click here, otherwise click here. All consumer products arranged in categories ie electronics, computers, books etc.. You may also be interested in viewing those products that are close to you and that is very possible on olx. This means you can purchase anything from anywhere.

The site also enables a guest to create an account and sell products in this site free of chance thus exposing small business to an even larger market as it does expose consumers to a wider varieties of commodities too.

Enjoy your time doing online shopping and selling on olx.co.ke but please take great care. I would urge you to be careful with any online  deals as there also many nonexistent deals from smart cone  men out there

E-Business and E-Commerce overview.



We have recently entered the age of knowledge, often phrases like knowledge is power and content is king will hit your ears more often when discussing business on the net. Events that have continued to unfold in the short course of e-commerce and e-business history have demonstrated and continue to demonstrate that successful e-business are those that recognize the needs of their target audiences and match those needs with relevant content..
The term e-commerce and e-business are often confused with one another though they may be related they are different-commerce involves exchanges among customers, business partners and the vendor. E.g. a supplier interacts with a manufacturer, customers interact with sales representatives and shipment providers interact with distributors.
E-business is composed of the same elements but also include operation that are handled within the business itself e.g.
·         Production
·         Development
·         Corporate infrastructure
·         Product management.
These two; e-commerce and e-business have increased the speed at which business transactions are being carried out. Also the ease involved in carrying business transactions built on these two models seems to be going through with a lot of ease. As a result of these two, ease and increased speed competition has become intense.
What does this mean to businesses? It is the high time that businesses must adjust constantly to new technologies, integrate newer and faster systems and meet the needs of the people around there targeted market segments. Competing entities must therefore must therefore realize that customers do not have to go far to buy from next available vendor as in these models they are just a click away from them.
