When I opened my Nuffnang just now,

I saw this

How come empty one?????

My last buffered earning was Jun. Running 4 buffered earnings at a time

See?

Hippocreep.com is having buffered earning drought now.

I’ve tired update my survey, my profile and stuffs

Wonder when I’ll have buffered earning again.

Hmmmm

Is like, finally. Mum, I’ve made it, in blogosphere sub-category

Well, after I pinged my post 2 nights ago, I went back 1 hour later to check on the pings given to my previous post

and I saw this.

One more ping and my post will be up to the top 10 list already.

I was thinking to myself that time

Should I ping myself to get into top 8?

Hell no, I won’t.

If I ping myself, it would be no honor for me. I won’t feel proud even though my post manage to get into the top 10 featured post.

You know, like use money to buy an official title instead of the people vote for you?

So I closed my browser and went to sleep

Yesterday morning, I went and check again 1st thing when I reached office

And I saw this

Yep. Thanks for the pings people. Now I know the feeling to be in the featured posts category. It actually quite satisfying.

He He.

Well, it’s like getting a PJK title only.Some people might say it’s easy to get but it’s quite encouraging.

Will continue work hard.

I can’t imagine if one day my post will be in the featured posts column on the main page. It’s like a Tan Sri title already man!!

It’s like

Featured Posts in Blogosphere = PJK, PJM
Featured Posts in Lifestyle = Dato’
Featured Posts in the Main Page = Tan Sri.

So it’s a ‘PJK, PJM’ title in Nuffnang Innit for me.

Tee Hee

Happy Friday peeps!

It’s weekend again. Remember to settle all the works before you leave office, get your homework done, get your study done and head for the weekend!!

The new Nuffnang Innit website. I know it’s been awhile but I havn’t got the time to put my comment about it.

It looks nice but frankly, FRANKLY, I prefer the old Nuffnang Innit website.

Something like this.

Why?

Because I AM A LAZY READER.

I like to click, read, click, read, click, read, like it, nang it, click, read, page 2, click, read, click, read, comment, like it, nang it, click, read.

I consider myself as a general type of reader. I read whatever things I click.

But the new Nuffnang Innit website have this different categories for specific type of blog post.

They have few main categories then expand down to few sub categories.

So as I am a lazy reader, again, for once, got stuck in front of a website because I don’t know which category to start with.

But but, this post is not to bombard Nuffnang Innit, they actually do a great job in this website, to improve the website and

There is one thing I really need to highlight about new Nuffnang Innit website.

They now have 10 featured post in each category already!!!

This is actually a very good idea and concept. I like it a lot.

Well, I guess it’s time for me to get use to this new website.

Hehehe

Okay now, which sub-category I should ping my post too.

Ah, found it, I’ll ping it in “Blogsphere” sub-category. Hope it’s the right one.

p/s: Shit, I do have a strong feeling that I won’t be getting any buffered earning after this post. But Nuffnang, you not so small gas one hor?? he he

Nang in Innit is important. Everyone knows that well. Everyone hope their post get very high number of nangs in order to go to the top 10 list.

This is good. And will increase your blog traffic.

But, one question.

let me take a deep breathe 1st before I continue. This is a “nangs suicidal” post.

Okay,

One question. What are you nanging for?

Do you nang because you read the post?

Do you nang because you like the post?

Or

Do you nang because you hope that person will nang you back. So practically you open Innit homepage and nang all the post submitted there without even read the post?

I nang because I like the post. That’s the purpose of nang in Nuffnang Innit, right?

Before you start calling or saying me jealous because I don’t get much nangs for each of my post.

Let me tell you, I’m really happy when I see my post got nangs from reader.

Then I started to think, of all the nangs, how many actually really read and like it. Sorry for having doubts towards my nangs.

But I would prefer you nang it if you like it. This will actually make me happy because someone actually like my post and my blog!

Of course you can nang and hope I’ll nang you back

But, sorry, I won’t do that. I’ll only nang those that really put effort into writing the post.

I won’t go nang a post which reads

“Today I’m lazy and I’ll be back soon. Stay tuned ya! Love ya much!!”

just because you nanged my post.

I might sound so “lansi” or “par pai”, right?Sound like my nang worth so much.

But that’s one of the fact of Hippocreep.com

Hippocreep.com goes the practical way. The hard work way.

But of course Hippocreep welcomes all sorts of nangs!!

I don’t know after this post, I’ll be blacklisted or not. LOL. Well, I’m just saying what is in my heart

Happy Working Peeps!

Love you much! Ha Ha!

One thing I notice about Nuffnang is that your blog need to have a lot of local traffics.

Local traffic means traffic comes from Malaysia.

Why you might ask. Because Nuffnang is a local company and all their advertisements are local targeted.

Do you think those visitors from Zimbabwe will click on the advertisement that promote Digi or Taylor’s Colleague? They will but chances is very low, lo.

So don’t be happy yet if you got a lot of unique visitors but majority are from outside Malaysia.

I have only 37.5% out of 100% traffics from Malaysia this week.

Pretty low but I’ll work hard for it.

Hippocreep.com/blog is a local blog and have no intention to go international.

So support support a bit, la!

Well,that is one thing I notice about Nuffnang. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Do you know what is Competitive Blogging means?

See the pictures below

Can you see? In the span of less than 1 hour. How many pings in Innit showing the same topic?

All were about Spain winning their 1st FIFA World Cup title.

And imagine when a person , like me, open Nuffnang Innit and see almost a full page of posts with same topic. You think I’ll click on each and every one?

Nope. I believe you will not do so.

From there, I can conclude that everyone is trying very hard to get good topic to attract traffic. But like the case above, how much traffic you think you’ll get? All the traffics will be divided among those with the same topic.

I admit. I admit that thinking about a new topic that able to attract reader is hard.Sometime you’ll have a lot of new topics. Sometime you can get out of ideas and don’t know what to write. I do end up with the situation like this, always.

There was once, I thought I was fast enough to finish a post and ping in Nuffnang Innit because the news was fresh from oven barely an hour and I hope be able to attract traffic. But right after I finished my post and ping in Nuffnang Innit, damn it, there was a post with same topic pinged 2 minutes earlier than me. I guess to be ahead of everyone in this internet blogging, especially you’re going to blog about general topics where people is interested it, 1 hour is too long. If you can do it in less than 10 minutes after the news come out, then it’ll mean something.

By the way, the post that I mentioned up is Paul’s prediction for Germany and Spain. Paul’s prediction, another hot topic. Once the news come out, a lot of people will blog about it and even until a day later, people will still blog about it.

I’m not trying to pour cold water on anyone but do you think you’ll get concentrated traffic by posting something which is a day late in internet? I don’t think so. You will get traffic but not a lot. I know, trust me. I’ve done that.

So either you can make sure that yourself is ahead of everyone, do it. If you’re like a day late and or maybe half day late, I suggest it’s good for you to think a new topic to write.

I remember when I started blogging since October 2004, blogging wasn’t that competitive as now.

But now,

I can see people post up the cheque they got from blogging

I can see people resigned from their daily 9 to 5 job and become a full time blogger.

I believe Nuffnang gets a lot of new registration everyday.

It’s hard to see a blog without advertisement.

By seeing this trend, I can say that blogging today indeed is a serious business.

Serious business is blogging.

p/s: I hope this is a new topic. I used 2 days to think, leh.he he

You know what is the most depressing part??

When you log into your Nuffnang account,

You see this

Yea! you said to yourself. 4 buffered earnings but wondering how come no CTR.

Then check your traffic coming to your site today.

And you saw

This.

And you straight away

Depressing?

Hmm, but then I just want to tell Nuffnang here, don’t give up on Hippocreep 1st. I’ll try my very best to improve my traffic.

Don’t stop giving me buffered earning!

Buffered earning keeps me going.

I just need a breakthrough.

Happy Weekend peeps.

I’ll be back tonight or probably tomorrow
