2 Things You Should Know About Your PC Recording Studio
By · CommentsWhat? You say you don’t have a PC recording studio? Let me ask you this. Do you have a computer? Was it made in the last 10 years? Does it have a sound card? If you answered “yes” to all 3 questions, you have a PC recording studio. Maybe you just didn’t know it.
So now that you DO know, you can create awesome audio for, well, for whatever. Record your songs and release an album. Send out a podcast. Narrate an audio book. Do voiceover recording for any videos you might be making, or to start a voiceover business of your own. There are so many possibilities.
Now before anyone raises their hand to protest that you can’t record really good audio using just a home computer unless you also spend a gazillion dollars on an audio interface, microphones, and special software, let me just say something first. You CAN record really good audio using just a home computer without having to spend a gazillion dollars on an audio interface, microphones, and special software. In fact, getting back to the title of this article, there are two important things about home recording you should know. First, good audio is more about knowledge than money, knowledge anyone can learn quite easily given the right lessons. Second, most people can create excellent sounding audio without spending more than about 30 dollars (for a USB mic if you don’t already have one)
The Basics of Home Recording are Easy to Learn
Most home recording needs will center around voiceover recording for any of a number of reasons, such as podcasts, audio for video, audio books, etc. You will probably have noticed that a lot of amateur narrated audio such as you find in videos on YouTube is really quite bad. It’s thin, echo-y, noisy, hard-to-understand, or any combination of the above. But that isn’t because the people recording this audio just have cheap gear. They could make much better audio with just a little knowledge, mainly about how to avoid and/or reduce noise, where to put the mic, etc.
You Can Create Good Audio With Your Current Computer and Free Recording Software
There are some good audio recording programs available free of charge on the web. Probably the best known is called Audacity. When I say “free,” I mean open source, not just a trial version. Audacity is amazingly powerful for the price ($0.00). I recommend you download it before someone figures out how good a deal it really is. Audacity is both a multi-track recording and sound editing software. It comes with lots of built-in effects like EQ, compression, reverb, and great editing capability. For many folks, especially the ones just recording vocal narration, this is the only home recording software they’ll ever need.
So now you know where to get the hardware, but you are wondering where you can gain the knowledge I said was so easy to understand. There are many tutorials on the web, but Home Brew Audio is dedicated to teaching home recording skills so that anyone can understand them, using enjoyable and humorous video tutorial videos. Why not give us a visit if you have a few moments? I bet you’ll be glad you did.

Review: Instant Video Articles
By · CommentsJust received word on a new product called Instant Video Articles. After watching the 7+ minute sales video, I was impressed with the product so I thought I would purchase it and try it out. After playing with it for a few minutes, I was able to produce a few fun videos in a variety of formats. It will export videos in five different formats – .mov, .mp4, .flv, .avi and .swf formats.
This is a very simple to use product that comes with 50 mp3 sound files that can be used for background music or you can add a voiceover. It is on a limited-time sale for the bargain price of $17.00. I know, what a low price for a product that can make you a decent return on your time producing videos. Could be a huge boost for promoting an affiliate product too.
Just a quick word of warning – This is not a full-blown software for producing Hollywood videos and the low price definitely reflects it.
For the introductory low price, Instant Video Articles very well could fit in your web toolkit.
Review: Blogging to the Bank 2010 – The Truth!
By · CommentsBlogging has been around for a few years now. Most people use blogs to record their thoughts and lives, while a select few use them as a free way to make a fortune.
One guy who uses this to his advantage is Rob Benwell. In 2006 he dished the dirt on the tips and tricks to making a fortune using blogging. But as time passes the old systems become obsolete and new techniques are required. This is where his brand new, fresh off the press Blogging to the Bank 2010 system comes into play.
For those who know who Rob Benwell is like me, you’ve probably made a killing using blogs.
For those who don’t, he’s the story:
Back in 2005 he was struggling to make any profit online, had dropped out of college and was getting deep into debt. He was trying all the techniques the gurus tell you and wasn’t getting anywhere fast. All of that went in the bin and he started using his own techniques and started making more and more money using simple blogs. In early 2006 he shared this with the world and had a great ebook called blogging to the bank. Tons of people got rich from using these techniques (including me). He then spoke at Online Marketing Legend Yanik Silver’s underground Seminar where he revealed even more of his underground strategies. Then July 2007 he released Blogging to the Bank 2.0 which showed users his new methods to creating online wealth using blogs. In total both versions have been read by over 50,000 people across the world.
But as I said earlier, the techniques used in these ebooks are now showing there age. Some of them are not even working in the slightest! This is where blogging to the bank 2010 comes into play.
It’s full of great new techniques that work online right now! Everything’s explained in plain English with all the fluff cut out. I got hold of an advanced copy of the book for a much higher price than what it actually sells for and it has been worth every single cent! I got it in the afternoon and by the evening I was creating new profitable blogs. Within a couple of hours of them being active I had made a nice little profit.
Blogging To The Bank 2010 teaches you Robs new step by step blueprint to creating highly profitable long term niche blogs using the newest optimization techniques. There’s even a section on advanced Search Engine Optimization. Most people think SEO is difficult but Rob explains this nice and simply so even the blogging newbie will understand it.
Blogging To The Bank 2010 is a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make easy money online.
Writing Web Content that Fits a Site’s Purpose
By · CommentsWeb design today is content-driven and most business websites strive to have content that attracts readers while still maintaining recognition by search engines. People use the internet for a variety of reasons and included in these is the desire to buy a product or service. By the same token, they are quickly turned off to a website where the web content does not give them the product information they need. Here are some tips for you the web designer for writing, purchasing, or editing web content that not only fits your web design but also integrates with the marketing plan of your web design client’s business.
Web content should first be written to solve a problem. People choose to buy a product because they believe it will give them a solution to their problem. For example, people visit health and nutrition websites because they want to get in shape but don’t know where to start. They may not be looking for a particular vitamin or health supplement per se but wanting to know what is the first step to improving their fitness. Your web content should consist of helpful articles relating to fitness and health improvement that will be of interest to them. Remember that the focus is on the visitors and not your web design client.
Before writing your content, determine what likely keywords and key phrases a person would use to find a website. One way to do this is by using Google Adwords to get statistics of search terms entered by users that are related to a search term you want to use. Another similar tool is the Free Keyword Tool from Wordtracker. The idea is to use key phrases or keywords in your web content that reflect commonly-used keywords in the major search engines like Google. By using these key phrases and keywords, the search engine crawlers can properly read the website and classify it accordingly in their index. Don’t saturate an article with keywords and key phrases because it will affect the flow of words making the article difficult to read. Many recommend no more that 1 to 2 percent keyword density.
Web content should be written so the reader can skim. Few people have the time to read everything on a web page in detail. Within a few seconds of looking at a website, the visitor should be able to figure out what it is about and if it provides a solution to his or her problem. One way this is accomplished is by keeping paragraph lengths short or using lists. Paragraphs should stay on the ideas of their topic sentences. The topic sentence is usually the first sentence of a paragraph and the remaining sentences develop the first. Some recommend only two or three sentences per paragraph but four or five are acceptable as long as the paragraph topic is fully explained. A good rule of thumb to follow is if the paragraph looks too long, try to see if it can be split up into two topics.

The higher PR you have though, means that you have higher quality posts, the right keywords and more traffic. Take note also that if you participate in paid blogging, google penalizes these blogs. Google adsense which is a big product of Google, doesn’t really go along well with paid blogging, PRs usually drop steps 1 or 2 lower in the next pagerank update.
A blog’s success is a combination of many factors, Proper search engine optimization is one of these. Good quality backlinks do count also and the number of quality backlinks to your blog, Once a blog is successful, it means more traffic, higher PR and more revenue.

How to Overcome Writer’s Block
By · CommentsA common problem for writers and bloggers is when they experience writer’s block. These people usually make a lot of articles in a day and this process most of the time drains the mind. Our mind becomes too tired for producing articles and creating ideas that usually results to not being able to formulate a new one and produce a new content. This is temporary though and once our mind gets its much needed rest, new ideas usually start coming in.
If ever you will encounter this condition, there are many ways on how to solve this problem. One way is to free your mind first of everything. Relax and meditate. Rest for a few minutes and if still it won’t come back, try to get some sleep. Below are some suggestions that will help you refresh your mind and fill it with new ideas.
1. Get Some Rest. Our mind gets tired too. Once it gets exhausted, it loses its focus. Give yourself a break. Our mind has so much work when we are awake. From the time we wake up in the morning until we lay in bed at night. It is pre-occupied also with other things like meeting deadlines at work, client meet-ups for sales people, and so on.
2. Relate to Real Life Situations. One way to get a successful and informative post is by producing content which are based on day-to-day experiences. What did you eat for breakfast today? Have you eaten a healthy diet? What are the health benefits of those you have eaten? Does your father really have to buy that toy your youngest brother have been bugging him about? These and more topics can be formulated even at the early part of your day.
3. Watch a movie. Watching a movie is a great way to relax and make you feel comfortable. Again, ideas? How about making a list and a review of the actor’s movies for the past 5 years? What movie has brought him to fame? Or, how about reviewing the movie itself?
4. Learn from the Experts. Read posts and other advices from the experts. These people are those who are already earning big bucks monthly. What did they do in order to reach their target monthly income? Was it a difficult road? What techniques and tips can they share with us?
5. Review your old articles. For some people, they love reading their old articles back. Reviewing what we have written few months or even years ago will bring back memories and usually new ideas. Sometimes, you also realize that when you wrote that article, you weren’t able to point out completely the points you wanted to address. This is one way of overcoming that writer’s block, adding inputs to the old article. Formulate another that will complete what you have started.
6. Visit Article Directories. Article directories have rich sources of information. Reading other articles would give us new ideas to develop new content. Some writers don’t cover all topics or information about a product or an illness and other things. We can discuss these missing ideas in another article.
7. Visit Yahoo Answers, Wiki Answers and Mahalo Answers. These sites have a listing of what people are looking for online. It is easeir for most people to start writing a post if they have guide questions. Intelligent questions usually give back brilliant and useful information.
8. Make a list of things. You can also make a list of different things – your favorite food, your wish list, popular movies in 2008, the most beautiful diving destinations of the world and many more.
Writer’s block is common. However, it is easier to remedy. A writer just need to redirect their focus on other topics that would generate response from their minds. The above list contains some of the ways on how we could overcome writer’s block. There are still a lot more. How about making that your next post?
