The much awaited Google referrals is now available for publishers. This means that advertisers can now place CPA ads also via their Google Adwords account. The ads placed look similar to the normal Adsense units but the link points to the referral url.

Withdrawing funds from your PayPal account may sometimes be difficult especially if you have a business account but want the cheque drawn in your personal name. PayPal would then require you to downgrade your account to Premier or Personal account. It also takes between 4 - 6 days for PayPal to process withdrawal requests. Alternatively you can use Xoom to transfer funds from PayPal and usually you will recieve funds within 72 hours. This works ven if you have a business account and you want the cheque in your personal name.

When you want to transfer money using Xoom, you key in the receipient’s name and fund your account through credit card, debit card or your PayPal account. Once Xoom verifies the payment, the money is transferred to the recepient account (in this case yourself).

Search engine optimisation or SEO services, in short, have somehow always been associated with underhand techniques. That probably had more to do with black hat SEO practitioners who like all others in their own fields ensured that the entire industry had a bad and notorious name. There have been umpteen stories of how websites had been banned after their SEO specialist created doorway pages and added the site to link farms in order to get it to the front page of Google. SEO-ers have been again known to commit number one rankings to customers and get away with their hard earned money without fulfilling their promise. But as with all other industries, things are changing - and changing for the better.  Companies are now ensuring that they are more transparent with their dealings with customers. In fact search engine optimisation companies like VisualScope have gone one step ahead and shown the results of their work online. Read the rest of this entry »
