Do You Really Want
Your Site on Page One of Google?

Featured Video: Submitting to DMOZ

Do you really want your website on page one of Google for your chosen keyword phrase(s)? What do you want your marketing online campaign to accomplish for you?

I asked a potential new SEO Coaching client last week this first question. From my end of the phone call, it sounded as if he almost fell out of his chair!

I followed up by asking him if he could ever think of ANY reason for his website pages NOT to be found on page 1 in the Google SERPs (search engine results pages).

How 'bout you? Can you think of any reasons you'd NOT want your pages to be found for your targeted keyword phrases on page 1?

Keep in mind, I'm talking about your chosen keyword search phrases.

I can think of at least 3 reasons. Maybe you can come up with some as well.

Is there Commercial Intent?

Let's say you have not just a page 1 Google result, but you're actually the first result. Here is an important question for you to ask yourself.

What is the commercial intent of this keyword phrase? Do the words contained in the keyword phrase give any indication of someone getting ready to spend money on a product or service like you provide?

For instance, compare these keyword phrases: Keyword Research, Keyword Research Specialist and Keyword Research Consultant. The latter 2 phrases give an indication of someone who is getting ready to spend money.

You can also Google the Microsoft Commercial Intent Tool and consider its results when evaluating your keyword search phrase choices.

If you are targeting a keyword phrase that has questionable commercial intention at best, is there any reason to really be found on page 1? Wouldn't it be better to target more appropriate phrases instead?

If there's no commercial intent, how does that help your online marketing?

Can you see where I'm going?

How Much Traffic Really Matters

Now, I'm giving you a choice: you can have a first page result (with commercial intent) and your position number is 4.

Your other choice is a different keyword search phrase with a second page result, position number 12, also with commercial intent.

So, the choice is obvious?

Well, I forgot to give you the rest of the details.

The first page choice has monthly search queries for its phrase of 3,240.

The second page result choice has monthly search queries for its phrase of 22,167.

Do you still believe that the best choice in this example is the first page result?

According to numbers from Aaron Wall's site, approximately 6% of search users will click on that number 4 result in Google. That's 194 visitors in a month.

This is figuring average title and description tags of typical online marketíng ability to convert to a click. "Your mileage may vary."

And for that second choice, the second page result? Over 1% should click on the search result, but let's use just 1%. That's 222 visitors per month.

Last time I checked, 222 is more than 194, so the second page result trumps the first page result, because the second page result has greater traffic that can convert to a transaction.

How Many Google AdWords Ads Show for your Chosen Keyword?

If you don't see many AdWords ads, this should be a warning!

One of 2 problems exist (or both):

1. There isn't enough traffic for AdWords advertisers to target the phrase. 2. There isn't commercial viability for the phrase. Either way, is a first page result going to help you? Probably not.

The Value of a Committed Searcher

Want a recipe to waste your time (or your employees')? Get a first page result in Google for your keyword search phrase and place your toll-free phone number in big numbers on the top right of each of your Web pages.

People clicking the first result in the SERPs are often less serious than those who go through the first few results or who continue searching onto the second page.

There may be something to be said for avoiding people who almost randomly click the first result and who may have impulse control "issues".

Now, if you have a large staff to answer your incoming phone calls AND if your conversion rate from those calls is strong, then the potential problem I described probably isn't a problem for your business.

On the other hand, if you are a solo professional, this strategy can be hazardous!

How are you going to perform your paid work when you get "Internet lookiloos" asking you questions they could get answered, if they would simply read a few words on your website?

Are these the best potential clients for your services or products and the best use of your time?

A second page result could bring you more serious potential customers, people who might be more likely to actually READ your website content, understand your products or services better and who might be more likely to convert to a transaction.

It's sure something to think about. :-)

Don't get me wrong. I'm not against first page rankings for your marketing. I'm just for thinking a little further down the road than JUST first page rankings.

Featured Video: ZDNET Looks at Windows 7

A couple years ago, I was talking with someone who was, for me, a very challenging client. I'm all about cultivating relationships that result in opportunities to sell.

This particular client seemed allergic to cultivating relationships for reasons I didn't ever really understand.

I remember one such meeting, I was trying to explain to my client the wisdom of first creating trust and credibility before trying to get a sale. And my client was blocking me at every turn with reasons why relationship development would not work for their business.

It was maddening.

Finally, I cried with exasperation, "Well, why the heck do you want to keep working with me since my approach doesn't work for you?"

"Because you're sincere," the client replied.

"Who cares" I thought to myself since it didn't seem to be to helping my client grow their business.

Since that time I've changed my mind about the quality of sincerity. I think it's impossible to have sustainably effective marketing without sincerity.

The Importance of Being Sincere

The word, "sincere" is derived from the Latin word, "sincerus," meaning whole, pure, genuine.

When you think about today's business climate, sincerity isn't a quality that comes to mind. But it's a quality human beings need to perceive to be willing and able to buy.

The Place of Sincerity in Your Marketing

First, it's important to remember the real role of marketing in your business.

Marketing is NOT about making a sale. Marketing is about creating a relationship based in trust and safety so that a sale can occur.

Regardless of public sentiment towards business, people and companies still have problems that need to be solved and stuff that has to get done. Your prospective customers still need to buy stuff.

They want to be able to trust you because they need to buy what you sell.

The marketing you do is all about establishing visibility and credibility so that there's enough trust for the purchase to happen.

For example, if you regularly keep in touch with prospects via an ezine, you're not doing it to "bug" your customers. You're sending out that ezine because:

• You can remind them that "Hey, I help people just like you solve these kinds of problems."

• You can provide examples and helpful information about the kind of problems you solve ("Here's an example of how I helped a customer")

• Or you provide helpful information for your prospects to better understand what they need to do to improve their situation.

Once prospective customers feel accepted for where they're at and trust you can actually help, they can then take the next step.

It's About Sustainable, Effective Marketing

Now there are also some relatively good-hearted entrepreneurs out there who use hard-sell tactics in their marketing. You subscribe to their ezine and get barraged with multiple emails every day telling you about some incredible program you "just gotta check out."

Here's what's important: there is no rest with this kind of marketing. You must work very, very hard to generate this level of noise.

And if you're spending so much time and energy with your marketing, it's tough to put much time or effort into where--in my opinion--we should be making the difference: helping clients and customers get results.

That, to me, is why hype-centered marketing with or without a good heart fails. If you want to market your business in a way that brings in a steady stream of ideal customers without burning yourself into a crispy critter, sincere, heart-centered marketing is the way to go.

Keys to Developing Sincere, Effective, Sustainable Marketing

#1. Ask yourself, "what's my highest intention for my business?"

What's the best possible outcome for you, for your business, and for your customer?
Example: the highest intention for Highly Contagious Marketing is when we help clients create marketing that grows their client base and their bottom line.

When that happens, satisfied clients send us referrals which helps Highly Contagious Marketing succeed financially and there are more successful businesses in the world making a positive difference.

#2. Look at how your intention is reflected in your marketing?

Thinking of the many different ways you market your business, how is your intention showing up?

Example: In all the activities to promote Highly Contagious Marketing, I want to:

(1.) Provide information, a how-to, or a resource that gives the person who gets the marketing a little added value.

(2.) Provide an offer and a clear call to action for anyone wanting to take the next step and get more help from us.

#3. Ask what one change can you make to your marketing to express your sincere desire to serve customers and make a difference?

Some specific actions you can take to show more sincerity in your marketing include:

(1.) Make your marketing message truly focused on your customer and their current problem. The first half of your message should be about your customer and their situation. If you're talking about yourself--your solutions and qualifications, your marketing is not focused on the customer.

(2.) Look for ways to leave anyone who encounters your marketing a little better off than they were before the encounter. Marketing that informs, coaches, inspires, even entertains all leave recipients a little better off.

(3.) Make sure your marketing reflects your values and if not, make changes. If you loathe hype in other marketing but use hype because "that's what everybody says I have to do," stop using hype. Create marketing that gets results without making you feel like you sold your soul.

Bottom Line

Remember, marketing is all about cultivating trust-based relationships so prospects can buy. And sincerity is a critical factor which enables trust to grow.

Can you market your products and services without sincerity? Sure. But you will have to work a lot harder to sustain sales because you won't be creating the quality relationships that give your marketing real momentum.

To create marketing in which sincerity shines through, take some time to remember what your business is in service for and take action so that your marketing better reflects what matters to you.

Link Building Best Practices - A Guide to Effective Link Building Methods

Just to cover the ground, lets go over what link building is quickly. Link building is the process of building backlinks to your site. More backlinks (link form other sites to your site) a site has, higher it ranks on the search engines. Link building therefore is a mission of all money making webmasters.

Link building methods have changed form time to time and a specific method that worked yesterday may not work today anymore. This is due to changes in the industry over time and in some cases extreme abuse. If a specific link building method has been abused too much, then that method will not work anymore.

It is therefore very important to know which link building method works today so that you can spend your time in a most productive way.

There are many link building methods out there today that work with some working better than others. Below are some of the today's popular links building methods that work to some extent:

Article Submission

If you are reading this article, then you know that you can publish your own article in article directories. Not only do you gain backlinks to your site from your published articles (see bottom of this article), you will get some traffic as a bonus. Think of you reading this article. There might be many reading your published articles as well.

Article submission is a great way of building backlinks as it provides you with 100% relevant contextual backlinks that Google loves.

Directory Submission

Directory submission used to work lot better before but it is still a popular link building method that still works if done properly. How many directories are out there as of this date is anyone's guess but one thing is certain: that most of the directories aren't worth submitting to.

Google considers a Yahoo Directory link as a quality backlink so if you can afford and justify the cost, it is worth submitting to Yahoo Directory. Yahoo charges $300 for a yearly submission and there is no guarantee that your site will be approved!

DMOZ is another directory that is worth submitting to and can come to great benefit in your SEO campaign. It may take months to get the approval form DMOZ and the chance of getting approved is pretty slim. Lot of small directories use DMOZ directory categories so getting listed with DMOZ would mean getting bonus listing on many other web directories.

Another good directory to submit to would be BOTW directory that cost $99 for a yearly submission and $299 for a permanent listing.

Other than the above ones, you should look for quality directories where you can submit your site. You can judge the quality of the directories by analyzing the number of sites listed, number of backlinks the directory has, PR, age of the directory, etc.

Social Bookmarking

Social bookmarking worked like charm only a few months ago. If bookmarked on authority and quality bookmarking site like Digg, Mixx, Propeller, etc, then you can still make good use of social bookmarking. Other than backlinks, social bookmarking also offers you some bonus traffic depending on where you submit to. If you can manage to put together or collect a good bookmarking site list, then social bookmarking can still be a useful link building method.

Blog Commenting

This is a link building method where lots of spamming have already been done so to make the best of it, you need to work a little harder here. It is best to find quality blogs related to your own category and make on-topic relevant comments. Not only do your comments add value to the blogpost, you now have a greater chance of getting your comment approved and your comments have greater chance of staying on those blogposts.

Press Releases

Submitting to press release sites can get you some backlinks as well. It is however hard to put together a list of good press release sites that's worth submitting to. If a good list can be managed, then this method can offer some quality relevant backlinks as well.

Social Media and Web 2.0 Pages

There are a lot of quality social media and Web 2.0 sites where you can publish your articles for backlinks. You should write articles that are relevant to your site and publish them on these social media and Web 2.0 sites with your keywords hyperlinked to your own site. Some of the authority sites are Squidoo, Hubpages, Blogger, Wordpress.com, etc.

Social media and Web 2.0 links are very popular these days as they work great. They offer quality relevant contextual backlinks that Google and other major search engines love. There are lots of other link building methods out there but if you can utilize the above ones to their fullest potential, there is no need for any other methods.

Selamat Jalan..

2009-08-03T22:11:00.004-07:00

Hari ini tgl 4 Agustus 2009, Indonesia terutama penikmat Musik, telah ditinggalkan oleh salah seorang Musisi yang Luar Biasa!!

Adalah "Mbah Surip" yang telah Meninggal Dunia, sekitar jam 10.30 WIB. Seorang Musisi dengan akhir perjalanan yang Indah.. Meninggal dalam karirnya yang sedang di Puncak..

Sebenernya, saya sangat berat untuk menuliskannya..tapi gimanapun, hanya ini yang bisa sy lakukan untuk mengenang Mbah Surip..

Segenap Hati berduka atas Kepergian "Mbah SuriP"..Tawa nya 'kan selalu menjadi Kenangan.. "Mbah Surip..I Love You Full"

MU vs All Star Indonesia akankah "Berdiri Terinjak??"

2009-07-17T07:27:00.000-07:00

Pertandingan Man Utd (MU) vs Indonesia pastinya sangat ditunggu2 oleh Pecinta SepakBola Indonesia! Pertandingan tersebut akan digelar pada Hari Senin, Tgl 20 Juli 2009 di Stadion Gelora Bung Karno...Tapi, tadi pagi (tgl 17 Juli '09) terjadi ledakan BOMB di salah satu Hotel di Jakarta!!

Nah loh!! Para pendukung setia (dan yg gak setia;D) MU pasti sangat kecewa! Bahkan sumpah-serapah pun terlontar untuk orang yang melakukan+merencanakannya!! Yang bukan pendukung MU pun ikut kecewa, apapun alasannya
......

Berita lengkapnya cari di Mbah Google aja ya..hehehe..

Saya gak akan membahas tuntas berita "Teror Bomb" itu...

Buat Fans MU, ada kabar gembira..bahwa MU sudah menawarkan untuk bertanding di MALAYSIA!!!! Wah,tiket ke Malaysia laris tuhh..segera aja pesen tiketnya!

Tapi buat saya, lebih baik saya tidak bertanding dengan MU kalo pertandingan itu dilaksanakan di Malaysia!!

Boleh aja berpendapat kalo saya ini bodoh.. Boleh aja bilang saya ini sok-sokan,, Tapi percuma aja kalo pertandingan MU vs All Star INDONESIA koq dilaksanakan di Malaysia?? Kemajuan sepakbola Indonesia bukan diukur dengan melawan salah satu tim Raksasa (maksudnya MU ;)) dunia aja! Tapi juga dari penyelenggaraannya! apa gunanya MU berniat datang ke Indonesia??

Walopun tetap banyak yang berharap biar All Star vs MU bisa terlaksana, meskipun itu di negeri tetangga,..Sekali lagi, kemajuan sepak Bola bukan hanya di atas Lapangan!! Kalo emang Indonesia pantas untuk bertanding melawan MU (ato tim Raksasa lainnya), tunjukkan kalo bisa di Negeri Sendiri!!
Kalo bener2 terlaksana di Malaysia..Benar2 bangsa Indonesia ini "Berdiri Terinjak!!"

Kemenangan pun hanya sebatas angka di papan skor..menang di saat negerinya luluh lantah,..

Apapun hasilnya, walopun All Star Indonesia menang atas MU, dan pelaksanaannya di negeri tetangga (Malaysia!)..kemenangan itu bukan milik bangsa Indonesia, tapi milik Teroris dan tentunya milik Malaysia!!

pun saya sangat mendukung Indonesia!!

Garuda di dadaku!! Bukan di dadanya!!! hehehe..
:))

Kita hidup di dunia ini gak sendirian (serem kali ya kalo sendirian??). Karena itulah terkadang kita berhadapan dengan situasi "serba salah"! Pasti situasi seperti ini sering kita jumpai,kita rasakan,dan kita lalui. Ketika berjumpa pasti pikiran jadi kacau, ketika kita merasakannya pasti jadi gelisah, sedangkan ketika kita melaluinya pasti hati jadi lega,pikiran jernih kembali,perasaan senang. Nah saking jernih 'n senangnya,kita lupa proses melewati situasi "serba salah" itu.

Suatu saat,terpikir dibenakku..kenapa aku ini selalu saja bertemu dengan kondisi "serba salah"?? Aku ingin begini, tapi orang2 di sekitarku ingin begitu!!(hmm..kaya lirik lagu apa ya??) kalo gak ikut mereka,dikatain salah! Tapi kalo ikut mereka, gak sesuai apa kata hatiku..Trus,harusnya gimana?---

Nah,ternyata yang bikin "serba salah" itu adalah pertanyaan terakhir! "Trus, harus gimana?"

--buat para Pakar kejiwaan,sosial,dsb mohon komentar/kritik atas pernyataan saya ini. Maklum,saya bukan Ahlinya bgtu..hehe----

Pertanyaan itulah yang selalu membebani pikiran kita..sampai2 menutupi telinga kita untuk mendengar kata hati! Untuk itu jangan takut untuk melangkah,mengambil keputusan hanya karena takut di"cap" salah oleh orang lain!! Kenapa?

Ya, mulailah berfikir..kalo kita dikatakan salah,kita harus terima meskipun kita merasa benar! Lalu??
Kita tanya balik ke mereka yang bilang kalo kita salah,"Oke, maaf aku salah. Aku seharusnya gimana ya?"...

Nah,sekarang siapa yang jadi punya beban?? Mereka atau kita(aku sendiri maksudnya)?
hehe..bukan bermaksud melempar beban nih. Tapi dengan seperti itu, kita bisa belajar tentang yang seharusnya dilakukan,tanpa terbebani. Selain itu juga mempelajari sudut pandang orang lain..

Jadi teringat kata2 " Semua orang itu benar, karena mereka malihat dari sudut pandang mereka sendiri"-- from Andy's Corner (halaman berapa ya?aku lupa..hehe..)

Sekali lagi, tulisan ini sangat penting buat penulisnya..memang belum tentu penting buat pembacanya..Terima kasih buat yang udah meluangkan waktu untuk baca tulisan ini.

Free Domain Name/Gratis Nama Domain

2009-07-07T01:46:00.000-07:00

Domain Name mungkin menjadi momok bagi Pebisnis2 Internet yang hanya bermodalkan bisa menulis dan koneksi Internet. Walaupun sekarang banyak sekali domain2 gratisan seperti co.cc,co.nr,dsb(dan saya bingung?) tapi tetap saja kebanyakan orang lebih nyaman kalo mengingat alamat situs dengan akhiran .com,.net atau .org..

Nah,beberapa waktu yang lalu dapet kabar dari sobat blogger (lebih tepatnya membaca blog sobat), ada penawaran domain Name gratis!! bukan co.cc ataupun .co.nr

Dalam hal ini yang ditawarkan .com,.net dan .org!!! Yang bener nih??Scam atau bukan yah?? Apa salahnya dicoba kan? Nah kalo sobat2 semuanya mau coba, silahkan klik di sini untuk registrasi Gratis!! Oh iya,gak bosen buat mengingatkan sobat,kalo ada iklan (biasanya video youtube) sebelum situs domain gratis, langsung aja klik "Skip Ads" di bagian pojok kanan atas biar langsung menuju TKP

Peringkat 1 di Google,,..

2009-07-06T05:31:00.000-07:00

Artikelnya muncul di Peringkat 1 mesi pencari Google mungkin bukan hal asing buat para Master Blogger.Tapi buat saya yang seorang Newbie dalam Kancah Perbloggeran tentu terasa beda!

Waktu saya coba ketikkan "Aceh is special territory (daerah Istimewa) of Indonesia" dengan maksud untuk cek,apakah artikel itu sudah terindex atau belum, ternyata langsung muncul pada hasil baris pertama di halaman pertama!! nih alamat blognya

Sesaat terasa lega,coz udah terindex..Tapi jadi berfikir..koq bisa ya?padahal umur blognya aja baru beberapa bulan..

Apa karena sedikit orang yang peduli dengan keistimewaan Aceh. Jadi teringat, waktu nonton kampanye putaran akhir salah satu Capres,. Beragam kesenian dari berbagai daerah ditampilkan..Tapi sungguh aneh, tidak ada performence-art dari Aceh!!

Bukan bermaksud untuk berpolitik,tapi ini yg saya saksikan!! Entah apa alasannya,tapi sepetinya tidak pantas!! Walaupun saya bukan orang Aceh, tapi saya merasa Aceh juga saudara kita, bangsa Indonesia!

Semoga tulisan ini bermanfaat,. Untuk para newbie, mari kita menulis tentang aceh,itung2 bisa muncul di Peringkat 1 Google. Sepertinya masih banyak kesempatan untuk jadi peringkat 1 di Google dengan menulis tentang keistimewaan Aceh ini!! Semangat para Blogger Indonesia!!

Malaysia di Black List 17 Negara untuk Penempatan Tenaga Migran by: Komunitas Peduli TKI "Say No to Unreliable Government!!!"

2009-06-21T10:25:00.000-07:00

Jakarta, BNP2TKI (20/6) Banyaknya tenaga kerja asing yang menjadi korban kekerasan dan penganiyaan di Malaysia, telah mengundang simpati semua negara. Sebanyak 17 negara dari 170 lebih negara, termasuk Amerika Serikat, telah memblack list penempatan tenaga kerja ke Malaysia.

Kepala Badan Nasional Penempatan dan Perlindungan Tenaga Kerja Indonesia (BNP2TKI) Moh. Jumhur Hidayat membenarkan telah adanya larangan dari 17 negara untuk penempatan tenaga kerja migrant ke negara Malaysia.

“Munculnya kasus kekerasan dan penganiayaan terhadap Siti Hajar, TKI asal Garut, memang memprihatinkan. Banyak negara-negara yang menyesalkan kejadian itu. Tidak heran kalau negara-negara di kawasan Asia, Eropa dan lainnya tidak mengijinkan penempatan tenaga kerja asing ke Malaysia,” jelas Jumhur saat interview dengan ANTV, di ruangan kerjanya, Jumat (19/6).

Pelarangan dari 17 negara ini, sambung Jumhur, setidaknya akan memberikan shock terapi keras kepada Malaysia. Dengan begitu, para majikan-majikan di Malaysia tidak semena-mena kepada para pekerjanya. Pelarangan ini juga akan membuat Malaysia mengalami kekurangan tenaga kerja pada beberapa sektor kerjanya.

“Saya rasa daftar 17 negara yang memblack list Malaysia akan diikuti oleh negara-negara lainnya. Alasan penghentian sementara tenaga kerja ke Malaysia sangat tepat. Ini dilakukan sambil menunggu bentuk perlindungan yang tepat kepada para tenga kerja termasuk TKI,” katanya.

Ditambahkan Jumhur, sekarang telah ada gagasan moratorium (jeda) pengiriman TKI ke Malaysia. Moratorium itu didasari untuk memberikan perlindungan maksimal kepada jutaan TKI di Malaysia. Moratorium ini diperlukan untuk membicarakan kembali MOU antara pemrintah Indonesia dengan Malaysia.

“Moratorium itu hanya untuk Penata Laksana Rumah Tangga (PLRT) dan bukan untuk TKI yang bekerja di sektor formal. Waktunya juga paling lama satu bulan, jadi hanya menyangkut sekitar 2000 TKI. Setelah moratorium itu, para TKI akan mendapatkan hak libur satu hari dan bentuk perlindungan lainnya,” tukasnya.

Jumhur mengatakan moratorium itu tidak menutup kemungkinan juga bisa berlaku untuk negara-negara penempatan TKI seperti Timur Tengah (Timteng). Sebagai negara basis penempatan TKI, perlindungan TKI di Timteng sangat diperlulkan agar tidak ada kasus Siti Hajar ke dua kalinya.

“Dengan libur satu hari, para TKI itu bisa istirahat. Mereka juga bisa lapor ke KBRI tentang kabar dan keadaanya. Selain itu, para TKI bisa curhat dengan teman-temanya sehingga keadaan mereka dapat terus terpantau,” katanya.

About Plastik..

2009-06-17T13:53:00.000-07:00

Sekarang ini isu Global Warming makin merebak.. Nah,di tengah kesibukan kita masing-masing, ada suatu organisasi Independent yang Sangat peduli dengan keselamatan Bumi kita ini..salah satunya yaitu Greenpeace..Di sini aku cuma pengin sharing ma sobat2 skalian. Beberapa waktu yg lalu Booklet pertamaku dari Greenpeace dikirim..Ternyata banyak hal yang gak kita (aku yang pasti..hihihi) ketahui..Nih ku kasih resume-nya..

Resume pertamaku ini tentang Plastik..Ya,plastik adalah benda yang sangat akrab dengan kehidupan kita sehari-hari.Plastik bisa jadi benda yang sangat User Friendly, mudah didapatkan, mudah dibawa, dan mudah dipakai(multi fungsi)..
Tapi di sisi lain,Plastik sangatlah tidak bersahabat terhadap Bumi!! berikut ini fakta tentang Plastik yang harus kita ketahui:
- Plastik dibuat dari Minyak Bumi, yang mana merupakan Sumber Daya Alam yang tidak terbarukan dalam proses pembuatan, ekstrasi(apa artinya apa sih??hehe..), dan pembuangannya. Nah Loe..Padahal minyak bumi gak cuma sebagai bahan baku Plastik aja loh...Jadi bisa dibayangkan,brapa lama lagi kita gak menemukan lagi yg namanya Plastik..
- Bahannya sangat ringan sehingga Plastik sangat mudah diterbangkan oleh angin. Oleh Karena itu, sampah Plastik termasuk sampah yang mudah berpindah.
- Timbunan sampah saat ini sebagian besar berbahan dasar dari Plastik. Tambah puyenk kan? Hampir tidak bisa dipisahkan dari Plastik nih..
- Plastik tidak bisa diuraikan, walopun plastik bisa menjadi serpihan, tapi tetep aja gak bisa ilang..
- Turut menjadi penyumbang kerusakan laut kita. 90% sampah di laut adalah Plastik, itu berarti setiap 1 Km persegi ada 120.000 serpihan plastik yang mengambang di laut. Jorok banget ya..
- Membunuh lebih dari 100.000 hewan laut karena dianggap makanan oleh mereka.
- Kebanyakan plastik 'alternatif' (yang oleh pasar dikatakan sebagai pengganti ajaib dari dunia paska minyak bumi) dibuat dari jagung hasil ekayasa genetik.

padahal kita sendiri amat sangat sering menggunakan benda berbahan dasar Plastik,bukan?
Pertanyaan yang pasti muncul setelah baca tulisan di atas adalah: "trus gimana donk?kan kita sudah terlanjur mengenal Plastik di kehidupan ini..!!?

Nah,ada beberapa solusi dari Greenpeace..mari kita cermati bersama,sob..

- Mulailah membawa kantong belanja sendiri ketika berbelanja, cangkir sendiri ketika mau beli minuman( mungkin maksudnya kalo beli minuman yang mau dibungkus plastik kale y??hihihi..) di kafe dan bawa tempat makan sendiri kalo mau bawa makanan dari warung/restoran.
- Kalo air di rumah sobat aman untuk diminum, kurangi membeli air minum dari luar.

Ya mungkin itulah segelintir solusi untuk kehidupan kita sehari2..Mau yang lebih lagii?? Nih ada lagi..

- Minta kepada pengusaha retail dan pabrik untuk bertanggung jawab untuk bekas tempat produknya, seperti botol atau tube lipstik..
- Pertimbangkan untuk membuka kemasan plastik di toko, mintalah kepada manager toko( dengan sopan tentunya ) membukanya untuk anda..
- Tulis surat kepada para wakil rakyat dan pejabat publik tentang bahaya yang ditimbulkan dari kantong plastik.
- Berpartisipasi dalam program bersih-bersih di lingkungan kamu atau pantai sekitarmu..

Masa depan generasi yang akan datang berada di tangan kita. Jadilah Solusi dan mulai katakan "TIDAK untuk PLASTIK"!!

Cara daftar Hosting Gratis

2009-06-03T03:01:00.001-07:00

Kemaren2 ada permintaan dari sobat blogger nan jauh di mata. Gmana sih cara daftar ke hosting gratisan? biasanya sih pertanyaan ini sering muncul, terutama bagi para blogger yg pengin pake CMS seperti Joomla!, WordPress,dll.

Nah,sampai saat ini pasti banyak hosting gratis yang menyediakan fasilitas memory sangat besar, contohnya www.000webhost.com, di sini tersedia disk space sktr 1500MB, wow besar banget!! Setelah dicoba buat Joomla,ternyata ada kendala. Ada salah satu file yg gak support. Gak tau juga sih gak supportnya knp? Maklum orang baru dalam per-IT-an..
Kemudian beberapa hari kemudian ada yang menyarankan ke FreeHostia. Dan ternyata..Mantabh!! Gak perlu repot2 edit offlin, gak perlu repot2 upload database Joomla!! Coz Hosting gratis freehostia dah ngasih pilihan buat WordPress, Joomloa,Drupal,dll. Jadi tinggal daftar,trus tunggu sktar 1 jam. Bis itu qt bisa langsung edit di administrasinya..buat yg mau belajar joomla!, sangat dianjurkan pake freehostia. Hosting Gratis dengan fasilitas yang lengkap dan Mudah!!
Nah, gimana cara daftarnya?? Ini dia langkah-langkahnya:

Langkah 1: kunjungi web : www.freehostia.com
Langkah 2: klik paket "chocolate",kecuali kalo mau yg bayar..ya pilih yg lain aja..hehe..
Langkah 3: cari link "Sign Up",kemudian klik aja..
Langkah 4: di sini kita bisa pilih basic buat blog/web kita..kalo saya sih pake joomla..
pada baris "setup your plan" pastikan:
1. CHoose your web hosting Plan:chocolate
2. Pre Installed script: "Joomla!" ato terserah kamu,Drupal,Mambo,WordPress ato yg lainnya..
3. Add on domain name to host: pilih "use a subdomain" coz qt mw yg gratizan aja..
Langkah 5: pada kolom "account Owner Details" isikan data diri anda,kemudian ketikkan image verifications pada kolom yg tersedia,kemudian klik "continue"
kalo gagal,lihat peringatannya,biasanya disebabkan data diri gak lengakp(semua kolom dengan tanda * harus diisi). Ato nama subdomain anda tidak tersedia,ganti nama subdomain anda.
setelah itu akan muncul jendela popup..tenang,itu hanya iklan saja,klik tombol X pada iklan tersebut (jangan tanda X pada Tab browser anda!!)
Setelah itu akan muncul jendela konfirmasi, isinya adalah pemberitahuan bahwa password,username,dll akan dikirim ke email anda sekitar 30 menit..
Close aja Tab freehostia nya..kita bisa mambukanya lagi lewat link yg dikirim ke email kita.. Di dalamnya tercantum usrname & password. o iya,email akan dikirim sekitar 30-45 menit..jadi harus sabar ya..mungkin sobat2 yang laen ada masukan buat hosting gratis yang lain??(UUuuhh..maunya yg gratis mulu..) Silahkan sharing ke sini..Makasih..
Selamat Menikmati Hosting Gratis di Freehostia..!!
