Bien choisir son ordinateur

noob1

Tout le monde sait de nos jours, que pour travailler on doit avoir un bon ordinateur, bien puissant et effectif pour effectuer son travail ou bien surfer sur le net, jouer.. !
Mais comment acheter un ordinateur fiable, qui résiste au choc, et qui fait rougir le visage (les marocains comprendront)?
Voici différentes critères que l'ordinateur de nos jours doit avoir pour être bon :

  • Son poids, plus son poids est lourd, plus il peux travailler et effectuer ses calculs rapidement, le poids moyen pour un bon ordinateur est de 40 Kg, et quand je dis 40 Kg, je dis pas plus de 200 Dh (20 Euro) par Kilogramme.
  • Son écho, plus on entend de l'écho quand on frappe (comme à la porte) dessus, plus il est moins fiable, on ne doit pas entendre de l'écho, parce que l'écho signifie qu'il n y a pas de matériel (hardware) dans l'ordinateur, l'ordinateur doit être costaud.
  • Sa ventilation, on doit entendre le son du ventilateur, car plus il est fort, plus il fonctionne.
  • Sa résistance à l'eau, on doit le mettre dans de l'eau froide pendant 24 Heures, si on découvre des traces de rouillures, on le rend ! l'ordinateur doit être inoxydable.
  • Le plus important c'est qu'il doit avoir soit le jeu de carte Solitaire si vous n'avez pas internet, soit MSN si vous avez Internet.

Retrouver ses favoris sous Firefox

Y a un moment, j'ai fait une fausse manip, et j'ai perdu tout mes bookmarks/marque-pages sous Firefox, si vous êtes comme moi! suivez cette méthode..

C'est très simple au fait !

bookmark_firefox

Allez à (Ctrl+Maj+B) Marque-Pages -> Organiser les marques-pages... , puis cliquez sur Importation et sauvegarde, puis choisissez soit restaurer les marques-pages, soit les importer depuis un fichier HTML (depuis IE par exemple), ou bien les exporter vers un fichier HTML, en encore les sauvegarder.

J'espère que cette astuce vous a montré le bon chemin de la vérité ! :)
Enjoy surfing the net

MSN Explorer : un naviguateur caché sous XP

hello world!

Après la légende d'IE 6, les fan boys du petit panda roux 'Firefox',  l'Opera italienne, et en prime le Safari du Kenya !!
savez vous qu'il y a un navigateur livré avec l'MSN de base sous Windows XP ( l'ancêtre de WLM) avec IE 6, ce qui fait 2 navigateurs sous XP et pas seulement un ( IE ) !! il est nommé MSN Explorer ( version 6 comme MSN IM):

prem_screenshot

Mais comme toutes choses venant d'MSN , vous devez avoir un compte chez eux ( MSN, Windows Live, Hotmail , Passport.. )
Pour le lancez, rien de plus simple :

  • Dans l'explorateur Windows copier/coller " C:\Program Files\MSN\MSNCoreFiles\msn6.exe

MSN_Explorer

  • Cochez 'Ne plus afficher ce message', puis sur Oui ou Non ( pour ma part Non ), alors une nouvelle fenêtre apparaît, celle d'MSN Explorer ( la légende cachée )

MSN_Explorer2

  • Ajoutez vous comme nouvel utilisateur, et entrez vos coordonnés habituelles d'MSN ( email et mot de passe ), puis connectez vous !
  • La surprise est qu'une voix de femme ( pas celle de Microsoft Sam ) vous dit : Bonsoiiirrr ! ( ou bien Bonjour au petit matin )

MSN_Explorer3

  • En quittant MSN Explorer, encore une voix de femme vous dit : à Bientôt..
  • LA CHUTE : IE 5.5+ est indispensable pour le fonctionnement de ce petit bijoux nostalgique !! :)

C'est vrai qu'il est lent, incontrôlable, limité, traditionnel, inutile pour certain, mais pour un fan de Hotmail et d'MSN, ca fera le meilleur cadeau , puisqu'il pourra bien lire ces e-mails, chatter, revisiter MSN, bref avoir toujours l'œil sur MSN & co ( c'est valable aussi pour les nostalgeeks )

Question pour les geeks avancés et les loveurs d'MSN ( kévins ) et de Windows: savez vous qu'MSN Explorer existait ?

Website Traffic Series Part 18: Exchanging Links with Partner Sites

The practice of exchanging links is mostly used for SEO purposes, but it can also be used for traffic generation if structured correctly. Below you will find how you can use this technique to generate traffic to your own website or blog.

websitetraffic_linkexchange

The concept: Porn websites are undoubtedly the most popular around the web right? If you take a look at them (under an educational perspective obviously…) you will notice a very common trend: most of them display links to partner websites on the footer or on the sidebar.

Some of them create those link exchange networks for the SEO benefits, but many also do it for the traffic gains.

Suppose you have website A, B and C, each owned by a different person. If all of them decided to put a link to the other two websites on the sidebar, with a headline like “Partner Sites” or “We Recommend,” all of them would benefit and end up with more visitors in the end of the day.

Does it work?: Yes, although the results that you will get will vary depending on how big your site already is, and on how related the topics of your partner sites will be.

If your website is receiving 500 daily uniques per day, you would be trying to partner with websites with a similar traffic level (smaller ones would not be beneficial for you, and larger ones would not agree to). A sidebar or footer link on a website that receives 500 daily uniques will send anywhere from 1 up to 10 visitors your way, per day (this is a rough estimation, the numbers could be different depending on the circumstances).

If you manage to get 5 link exchange partners, therefore, each one of you should expect from 10 up to 50 extra daily visitors (or 300 to 1500 extra visitors per month). Nothing spectacular, but nothing to be ashamed of either.

The larger your blog, the larger the number of visitors that you could receive from link exchanges. The positioning of the links might affect the click through rate as well (i.e., links placed on a header stripe will generate more clicks than links on the footer).

Provided your link exchange partners cover related or complementary topics, there is also the benefit that those new visitors could end up liking your site and becoming a loyal visitor or an RSS subscriber.

How to get started: As I mentioned before, you will need to look for websites that have a related topic and a similar traffic level.

One good place to start is your own blog. Take a look at your most active commentators, and see if any of them have a blog on your same niche and with a similar traffic level. I bet there are some.

Secondly, take a look at who is linking to your articles or blog already. If someone naturally linked to you, he would certainly be willing to discuss a link exchange partnership.

Once you have a list of potential partners down, just contact them explaining the idea. Make sure to highlight what they have to gain out of the deal.

Finally, it might be a good idea to nofollow your links if you want to avoid troubles with Google.

Over to the readers: Have you ever exchanged links with other websites for the purpose of generating traffic? Did it work?

Website Traffic Series Part 17: Using Article Directories

Article marketing, which is basically the practice of submitting content to article directories, used to be very popular around the web. It is losing appeal lately, but it still can be used to promote your website and generate some traffic to it.

articledirectories

The concept: Article directories allow people to freely submit articles to their database. Usually you just need to register an account and you are ready to go. They also allow the insertion of an author byline, and a link to an external website, so depending on how popular your article will be, you could end up receiving traffic from the link you placed there.

Most article directories also allow third parties to republish the articles, as long as they are not modified and the credit links are kept intact. This feature could send you some further traffic if other people decide to republish your content.

Does it work?: Until some years ago article directories used to have a lot of love from search engines. As a result, a carefully optimized article could easily rank among the first positions in Google for related terms. The author would then receive highly targeted traffic from his byline link.

Lately, however, article directories are losing their power, and it is harder to rank well with submitted articles. That does not mean that this strategy is obsolete though. If done correctly (SEO wise), and in mass scale, article marketing can still produce good results. One requirement, therefore, is that you have a good amount of time to work both on the articles and on the submissions.

How to get started: First of all do some keyword research to know what keywords you should be targeting with your articles. Then write as many articles as possible around those topics, and craft their titles carefully (i.e. make them appealing to search bots). You could also generate many variations from a single article to maximize the number of submissions.

Once you have the articles written and ready to go, register an account with some popular directories and submit then there. You could start with those two:

Don’t forget to add a byline in the end of the articles, and drop a link or two pointing to your own website.

Keep in mind that the articles you will be submitting should have been written specifically for this purpose. Do not re-use articles previously published on your blog or website, as this could harm your search rankings with duplicate content penalties.

Over to the readers: Have you ever tried to promote your website by submitting articles to directories? How did it work? Do you think this strategy is losing efficiency lately?

Website Traffic Series Part 16: Promoting Your Content on Social Networking Sites

A couple of weeks ago we talked about how you can use social bookmarking sites to generate traffic to your website. Social networking sites represent another sub-category under the social media umbrella, and they could also be used to generate traffic. Below you will find how.

socialnetworkingsites

The concept: The term social networking site encompass a wide range of websites and applications where the goal is to let users of a certain group, or having a certain interest, to connect, interact and share things. Popular examples include MySpace.com and LinkedIn.com.

Most of those websites allow its members to write a small bio or profile, and usually they also let you include a link there. Given the popularity of social networking sites around the web, it is possible to use those websites to generate traffic to your own.

Does it work?: Yes, provided you are minimally active on the social networking sites where you plan to promote your website. The traffic can also be significant depending on how popular your “profile page” will get. I have seen webmasters receiving as much as 500 uniques a day from MySpace or Facebook profiles.

Another advantage of registering with those services is that some of them will follow the profile links of members, meaning that you will also reap some SEO benefits along the way.

How to get started: First of all you need to create an account on those services. Some that you might consider are:

Once you have an account, you will need to get as many friends and contacts as possible. Just get busy and active in the community and people will notice you. Make sure to add your link to your profile, and try to share it inside specific groups as well. As usual, test with different strategies until you find efficient ways to drive traffic to your own site.

Website Traffic Series Part 15: Promoting Posts That Link to You on Social Bookmarking Sites

Last week we talked about how you can use social bookmaking sites to promote your own content and generate traffic. Well, curiously enough, you can also promote other people’s content to generate traffic to your own site!

otherssocialmedia

The concept: You probably know that social bookmarking sites can generate tens of thousands of visitors to a website that gets featured on them right? Now, what if a particular page or post receiving a huge amount of social media traffic was linking to one of your posts? You would end up with a good amount of referral traffic.

The idea is simple therefore: whenever you come across a high quality page or post that is linking to your website, help to promote it on social bookmarking sites. Practically speaking, give it a thumbs up on Stumble Upon, digg it, bookmark on Delicious and so on.

Notice that I mentioned “high quality page or post” because it would be useless to go around voting for every post that is linking to your blog. They need to be appealing to social media as well, else your efforts helping to promote it will be fruitless.

Does it work?: Yes, although the referral traffic you will get will not be huge. Conversion rates for links inside posts gravitate around 1% (rough estimation for the sake of the argument), so if 100,000 people visit the post that is linking to you, you should expect 1,000 to click on the link that leads to your website.

The traffic is not huge, but every bit helps right? Additionally, this is a win-win situation, because you will also be helping someone that was willing to link to your site on the first place. It is a way of saying “thank you” for the link love, if you will.

Finally, if people notice that you are willing to help them out, they will be glad to help you in return, perhaps promoting your articles on social media as well.

How to get started: Applying this strategy is really easy, you just need to keep your radar up for people that link to you blog. Most blogging platforms display the recent backlinks on the control panel, so that is a good place to start.

You can also use blog tracking services like Technorati to monitor that. Try to identify that posts that have good value (e.g., a big list of resources, a comprehensive analysis on some topic) and then just promote them on social media.

Over to the readers: Do you have the habit of promoting posts and sites that link to your own? Have you noticed any traffic coming from it?

Website Traffic Series Part 14: Promoting Your Content on Social Bookmarking Sites

Promoting content on social bookmarking sites is one of the most popular marketing strategies around the Internet. And not by chance. Getting featured on the front page of those websites can send tens of thousands of visitors to your blog in a matter of days.

websitetrafficsocialbookmarking

The concept: Also called social news aggregators or community bookmarking, social bookmarking sites represent a family of websites that allow users to discover, submit, share and vote on stories and articles from around the Internet. The most popular social bookmarking sites are Digg.com, Reddit.com, StumbleUpon.com and Del.icio.us.

If your blog is relatively new, you will need to submit your top quality content to those sites and hope that other users will like it and rate it. Should enough people vote your story up, it might end up on the front page, sending a huge amount of traffic to your blog or site.

Once your audience starts building up, there is a chance that the readers themselves will submit and promote your content on those bookmarking sites.

Does it work?: Absolutely. As far as traffic generation is concerned, there are very few techniques and channels that will beat social bookmarking promotion.

That being said, that are a couple of things that you should know. First of all, social bookmarking traffic is very peculiar. It does not click on ads. It does not stick around on your site. And it rarely subscribe to your RSS feed.

Secondly, not all types of content will work on all social bookmarking sites. SEO and blogging related topics tend to perform really poorly on Digg, for example, while political coverage receive good attention on Reddit. Over the time you will need to find what is the right social bookmarking site for your content, therefore.

How to get started: Generating a couple of hundred page views with social bookmarking sites is an easy task, you just need to submit your story and ask some friends to vote on it. Making your story go “hot,” attracting tens of thousands of visitors, however, is a whole different story.

To tap into the real potential of social bookmarking sites you will need first to understand how they work. What kind of content users are looking for? How the voting works? What are the hidden rules of those communities?

The best way to answer to those questions is to become a user on those sites yourself. Once you get a grasp of what is going on, start testing and see how things are going to work for your site.

Over to the readers: What is your experience with social bookmarking sites? Do you think they are a necessary part of any online marketing strategy?

Website Traffic Series Part 13: Faking a Hacker Attack

As we said before, on this “Website Traffic Series” we are going to cover ALL the traffic generation tactics and strategies out there, even the weird and the blackhat ones!

hacked

The concept: The idea is pretty simple. Popular websites that get hacked tend to make the headlines around the blogosphere. As a consequence, they receive many backlinks and a good amount of traffic. People are curious, and they will want to check out what happened.

Now instead of opening up some security holes on your website and waiting for a real hacker to come (which apart from the traffic would also give you some head aches…) you could simply fake the attack.

All you need to do is to create a weird HTML page, put a “This website was hacked” message there, and redirect your domain to that page.

Does it work?: Yes and no. First of all you need to have a somewhat popular website already for this to work minimally well. No one is going to care if your two-week old .blogspot blog should get hacked, right?

If you do have a somewhat popular website, though, there are chances that you will receive a good amount of backlinks and traffic with this technique. JohnCow pulled that trick some months ago. For 24 hours he redirected the visitors to his domain to a page that contained the image on top of this post.

Many people linked to him as a result. Some thinking it was for real. Some calling him out for a cheap stunt. Others just intrigued by the whole deal.

As you can see it does work to some extent, but it will also bring some negative publicity and criticism to your website.

How to get started: Personally I would not try to generate traffic with this method. I think it might work for sites that deal with blackhat or out-of-the-box promotional methods (JohnCow was born as a parody site after all), but that is not the case with most of us. Try this at your own risk, therefore.

Over to the readers: Have you ever considering to take something on your site to generate traffic? Would you get pissed if a website that you read regularly pulled this trick on your?
