How to Add or Customize Meta Tag Blogger?

How to add or customize meta tag blogger? Firstly, lets find the definition of meta tags. Meta tag is a HTML format (coding statement / tag) that describe some aspects of contents of a webpage or blog. This tag actually is not necessary to build a web, by default many pages do not use the tag at all. I check html codes on my blog, by default my blog also don't use meta tags. Then why many blogger create meta tags on their blogs, do you know why? As I mentioned before, meta tag describe some aspects of contents of a web page. Describe - means it provide an information. Information that provide in meta tag is used by search engine therefore it can help search engine to list your site in their indexes. For bloggers creating meta tag is one of SEO on page technique to optimize their site to be more SEO friendly. These meta tags are meta tag description, keyword and robot.

Meta Tag Description
The html format will be look like this :

<META name="description" content="a description of your page ">

Depending on the search engine, this will be displayed along with the title of your page in an index. "content" (marked with green color) could be a word, sentence or even paragraph to describe your page. To optimize meta tag description "content" should be not more than 200 character. Keep in mind that some search engine will reject your site if it more than 200 character. According to scrubtheweb.com search engine, the optimal character is around 150 character. Keep this concise and to the point. Don't be so mean with your description that its not an appropriate reflection of the contents.

Meta Tag Keyword
The html format will be look like this :

<META name="keywords" content="a, list, of, keywords">

"content" (marked with green color) are list of your keyword related to your website that you think appropriate. You may add comma separator when you input some keywords. For example : "SEO, make money, tips, computer .... an so on"

Meta Tag Robot
The html format will be look like this :

<meta name="robots" content="index / noindex , follow / nofollow">

With this meta tag you can specify that certain pages should be or not be indexed by search engine robots, or that the links on the page should be or not be followed by robots.
"index" means pages will be indexed by search engine robot. "noindex" is the opposite.
"follow" means the links on the page will be followed by robots. "nofollow" is the opposite.
You can choose combination of index or noindex and follow or nofollow.

Okay, just add the following code to your templates. (log in to blogger.com - Go to layout section - Edit HTML)

<meta name='description' content='a description of your page'>
<meta name='keywords' content='keywords'>
<meta name='robots' content='INDEX, FOLLOW'>

Install the meta tags code after the </TITLE> tag. Don't forget tho change the word in red mark with words that related with your site. Finally save your template.

Bottled Water Industry and Competitive Environment Analysis

Bottled water industry was among the world’s most attractive beverage categories. Industry revenues were forecast to grow between 2005 to 2010. Bottled water’s convenience, purity, and profitability are important for this concern. A heightened emphasis on healthy lifestyles and improved consumer awareness of the need for proper hydration led many consumers to shift traditional beverage preferences toward bottled water.

Suppliers
The suppliers to the bottled water industry included municipal water systems; spring operators; bottling equipment manufacturers; deionization; reverse osmosis and filtration equipment manufacturers; manufacturers of PET and HDPE bottles and plastic caps; label printers and secondary packaging suppliers.

Distribution channels
Typically, bottled water was distributed directly to large grocers and wholesale club. Whereas most producers used third parties to make sales and delivers to convenience stores, restaurant and delis. One of key successful for bottled water producer is domination of distribution channels.

Bottled water market were dominated by several player : Coca-cola, PepsiCo and Nestle – who develop strategies such as low cost production, distribution capabilities, differentiation (Innovative product variations enhanced waters or functional waters), lowered prices in developed markets, and strategic agreements (strategic alliances, joint ventures, franchise and acquisitions) to strengthen positions in established market, and acquired smaller sellers. Industry largest sellers appeared to be positioning for industry maturity by purchasing smaller regional brands.

About industry and competitive environment I guess it most likely similar with 5 forces – Porter as exhibit below depict (left click to enlarge).



1. Supplier
Municipal water systems; spring operators; bottling equipment manufacturers; deionization; reverse osmosis and filtration equipment manufacturers; manufacturers of PET and HDPE bottles and plastic caps; label printers and secondary packaging suppliers.
Bargaining power of supplier :
It depends on the geographic aspect (inadequate water sources), technology adopt by supplier and its support facility, bottle stocks (inventory), etc.

2. Substitute Product
Soft drinks: very appreciated in most country
Other substitute product: Coffee, tea, etc.

3. Buyer
Wide segment of consumer, both urban and rural populations.All age consumers, young to old consumer.
Bargaining power of customer :
It depends on consumer preferences, municipal water quality, market trends such as health and flavor, etc.

4. New Entrants
Market in maturity, so little new entrants.
Barriers from the outset: high costs to begin (require a capital investment of more than $100 million)

5. Rival Firms
Danone, Nestlé, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and many small regional sellers.
Because of the market in maturity so that this industry refer to oligopoly competition. It dominate by only several big players like Danone, Nestle, Coca-cola and PepsiCo. Several companies will struggle down to increase market share and try to survive with new strategies.

How to Reveal YM Invisible Users ?

How To Reveal YM invisible users? - We often use yahoo messenger to chat with friends. Many features like webcam, call someone, conference, can choose invisible or visible...and etc makes YM more popular than any chat / messenger tools. As I mentioned before there is a feature that called invisible, that is when you choose invisible on your status, your friend will think that you are offline. But now, even when your status is invisible, you can be detect by someone that you actually online in YM but in invisible mode. So, how to reveal someone who invisible?

My friend Adhit told me, he use YMDetector to reveal friends, whether his friend invisible or not. Is it true that YMDetector can reveal your friend who is in invisible mode??? So I try to test YMDetector. I think that YMDetector can not be trusted to reveal someone YM ID who invisible, because when I test YMDetector, it is often produce a wrong result. Actually you can test it by yourself to proof whether YMDetector is good to reveal YM status.

But wait, I found another sites, that is Vizgin.com. Unlike YMDetector , Vizgin.com is really able to reveal YM status. I already test it and it can predict YM ID status (offline, online or invisible) precisely. You can also test it. With this tool you can exactly find out if your friends are online, offline or invisible.

Adsense Program

May be you already know / heard about adsense, but let we start from the introduction to adsense. Adsense is one method of advertising program that run by agent, for example : Google Adsense, Bidvertiser etc. To simplify the explanation, you must know that there are at least three parties that involved in adsense. First the advertiser, second is the publisher and third is the agent who manage adsense program.

Advertiser could be a personal or organization that need to introduce or offer their product or service to public, they need promotion and to advertise their stuff via targeted market. In internet world they promote their website link to be recognize by the public.

Same as advertiser, publisher also could be a personal or organization. In publisher's point of view, Adsense is the program that can give them advertising revenue from each page on their website or blog with a minimal investment in time and no additional resources. Adsense can generate revenue even when you are asleep.

Targeting Adsense: for example article in your blog is about making money. Then, ads that shown in your blog is about making money (see figure above). AdSense delivers relevant text and image ads that are precisely targeted to your site and your site content.

So how would you like to use the internet to generate a passive income that builds even when you are asleep? This is no get rich scheme, on the contrary it will take some time to develop the income stream especially if starting from a brand new website. The answer is to become an Adsense publisher and display Adsense ads on your web pages that are relevent to your content and thus provide a service to your readers and also provide you with an income stream.

How to become an google adsense publisher and start generating income?

Become a publisher is very simple. First, you must have a website / blog (using english) then you must register, take a single online application plus submit your website. After your registration is complete, submit it and wait for approval from adsense program. Once your application is approved you can start viewing ads in your website. When visitors visit your website and found relevant ads that he/she need in your website, visitors will click the ads and they will directed to advertiser website. Thus you earn from that clicks (Pay Per Click). Whenever someone clicks on an advert, your Adsense account gets credited with a few cents. Dependent on how much the advertiser is paying. As stated above, this is no quick result but more a structured approach to generating value both for the internet and yourself. Note that you may not clicking ads on your website or ordering people to click your ads because it can cause you a trouble, the worst scenario you could be banned for that. If you do intend to become an Adsense publisher then please do this in an ethical manner, click fraud is becoming a big issue and Adsense program are extremely active in identifying and stopping this practice (which this site agrees with).

One adsense ID also could be used in to many website, cause maybe you have more than 1 website or blog. Thus it gives you opportunities to earn more. Provide your website or blog with valuable information (related with your website/blog title) and try to get more traffic for your websites, because it can maximize your earning.

To start earning with adsense program you can join Google adsense program (it still the best I think), you will paid by check. Bidvertiser is also good enough, you can be paid via PayPal or check. If you interested to join bidvertiser you can click on the bidvertiser banner on the top right of this page, you'll be directed to bidvertiser website. Okay, if you want to be publisher now, just try it. :)
