Almost two months of blogging hiatus and days ago, I was just too fired up to open that “New Post” page and hit “Publish.” As I opened my blogs and accessed my online milking cow, I was surprised that a page welcomed me saying that my Adsense account was disabled by Big G.

The issue about the “Big Bad Blogger” is making abuzz in the online world, in particular, in the Pinoy blogosphere.
This whole controversy and discussion came from the article written by Margaux Salcedo on January 23 on the Philippine Daily Inquirer. The article was entitled, "Please don't give blogging a bad name.”
On the article, Salcedo shared about an incident involving a blogger she referred as the "Big Bad Blogger” and a PR Firm. According to Salcedo, these two demanded cash compensation from a restaurateur in exchange of good reviews. With that, she challenged the blogger and the PR firm not to give blogging and all other bloggers a bad name.
The article stirred discussions and drew up mixed reactions not only among bloggers but all those who are active on social networking sites. Unfortunately, Margaux has not identified the blogger and the PR firm. Some netizens are now urging her to bare the names of these crooked people.
There are also people who see Salcedo’s article as a knee-jerk reaction, lacking in research and full of speculations. Nonetheless, the general clamor is for her to reveal the identity of the people she was referring to on her column.
The issue about the Big Bad Blogger is not something new. However, with the popularity of social media and blogging in particular, the issue has become so controversial. Salcedo’s allegation made on her article may lack in substance, nonetheless, the general call is for her to name these people, if she has already done a good research about the whole incident. Because if some bloggers are labeled as “BBB” for extorting of some sort, then bloggers can also easily be faulted by hurling accusations based on speculations and with no hard evidence to back up the story.
What do you think of about the whole issue of the Big Bad Blogger?

I was blogging a night ago when Jhong Medina, a fellow blogger sent a chat message to me about his newly discovered SEO tools. He shared some of them to me especially on checking my posts if they are soundly-SEO-ed (if there is such a term).
Then he turned on one of my articles and told me that my post was quite convoluted. The date of the article appeared to be the H2 while the title of the article appeared as the H3.
After quite a discussion, we assumed that the culprit was my blogger theme.
The solution? Well, since I am total idiot when it comes to tweaking my blogger HTML codes, I just had to find a new blogspot template that is SEO-friendly so to speak.
Searching on google is the fastest way. And the theme I have chosen is this present black and white SEO-friendly theme by Blueken, a Filipino blogger and SEO enthusiasts.
I tried the theme and so far I am quite satisfied. If you are to ask me how I knew that my free blogger theme right now is SEO-friendly, I cannot offer you any technical explanations. But for a simple blogger like me these reasons I guess made me feel satisfied.
For one, the problem with proper tagging is already ok. Second, this blogspot theme loads faster than the previous one. Third, this theme is Google Adsense ready. And last, I saw a spike on my Adsense CTR rate compared to the previous theme that I was using.
Sometimes, a good looking theme full of wonderful designs is not enough especially if you are cashing on search engine traffic to your blog. An SEO-friendly blogspot theme is still a good first option to start with.

The popularity of naruto videos and games is unquestionable. People are searching for them over YouTube and different websites or buy themselves a compilation of naruto DVD.
But as I was slowly getting fascinated to this naruto fever, I also discovered that there are fans out there that search for free naruto pron videos and games.
I was quite baffled what naruto pron videos and games are all about.
It is only then that I knew that the naruto pron keyword is actually misspelled and should be “porn”, that made me even wonder if there is indeed some steamy anime video of naruto and his gang.
Truth is, there is none. Only that there are still people who would want to search and watch it. And yes, only to find out in the end that what they will get usually are computer virus hidden under these "unstrusted" sites saying it will give them what they thought could be found there.
So be careful as malwares, computer virus and trojans are lurking from these keywords that you will find from search engine results.

My blogging buddy Jehz posted a blog article and at the same time a contest about the Cheapest E-bay item and it was a great contest as people and bloggers scrounge to share the cheapest item they could find on e-Bay and have them for free.
I must say that I am always amazed with how and what Jehz is posting on his blog; full of wit, humor and fun. But I am also amazed to see that they are also SEO articles that rises up on the top pages of search engines though not too many people know, or is it only I who is thinking of that, LOL!
Back to the cheapest E-bay item, Jehz is at the third spot on Google on the keywords cheapest e-bay item, ehehehe!
I don’t know if there are really searching for those keywords but nonetheless, I can say that Jehz is really a genius.

For bloggers who make money online out of their posts and the surge of traffic these gets from search engines, keywords are always the key to get on top and rake in the cash. But not all keywords are worthy milking cows for some bloggers as some keywords are so cheap that eventually, despite many clicks you get, your cash register will only show some pennies.
That is why, there are bloggers who also focus on or equally give importance to top-paying or high-paying Google adsense keywords in order to get in more moolah.
These high-paying keywords are usually those considered on very competitive niches flocked by wealthy industries and sectors who are ready to pour in their cash just for their products and services to get attention and customers.
So how can one say that a Google keyword is a high-paying keyword? Well, for me these keywords are those that will make you earn at least $2.00 per click. Some keywords in this league even gives $75 per click. Amazing huh. True.
Here are some high-paying Google keywords I discovered.
Fire Proof File Cabinets $8.82
Home Loan $9.02
Accept Credit Card $10.43
Web Name Registration $13.37
Home Equity Line of Credit $18.35
Of course these Top-paying google keywords prices also fluctuate from time to time because of the supply and demand principle. But at least we get the idea that these are not google keywords that will give us only pennies.
