Twitter Philippines

Twitter have been getting lots of signup from Philippines these past few months. It ha become a very popular destination for Pinoys or Filipinos around the world. In the Philippines alone, Twitter can be heard all over showbiz. I tried to search for what Pinoys have been looking in Twitter or what or who’s tweets they have been searching for to follow. More

Ugly YuBin Twitter Account Gone

After the alleged Korean, YuBin Twitter account threw offensive remarks against Filipinos, calling them (including me) monkeys in her account, there were outpour of searches and tweets condemning YuBin on Twitter. Unluckily, even I thought of seeking that account to see what’s cooking in her shouts but found none today. More

Smart MySandbox Re-Launch

Smart MySandbox

I never thought at first that Smart Mysandbox already had a launching before which according to a blog I read today was earlier introduced to bloggers. Just like what other hardware problems encountered with their failure, Smart’s MySandbox failed because of usability issues. It never made it big for cellphone and mobile phone users in the Philippines.

Looking Forward to Make My Tech Blogging e-Book

There are literally millions of bloggers out there who love blogging and for some reason, some of them or most make money out of their passion for blogging. Some have been transformed from the standard blogger into and e-Bay selling machine while some prefer Amazon. I for one started in tech blogging back in 2004 with my first ever blog discussing SEO in the Philippines and the rest is history to date.

Minimalist WP Theme for Crawlability

All minimalist themes for Wordpress are good and I bet that this is true not just because of the easy use and usability features that these types of themes are made of but also because I found out that they are really great for crawlability. Of course we all have our own preferences with themes but for me, it is the best choice.

DJ Arlo Gilbert Fan

This is a test post to see what will happen to the DJ Arlo Gilbert fan magazine that was once there but now gone. This DJ is one of the best DJs out there in Claremont and I am not sure today if he is still the same person or DJ that he used to be.

Anyway, just to pay a short tribute to his deeds and mixes, I posted this short concern about the man of the hour. Good luck to his career and may he be there always for the disco dancing tricks.

Google Filters are Up Front

Yes, the Google filters seem very strict these days as I experienced so many changes while blogging and promoting all the posts that I make all the time. Just this afternoon, however, some posts that I made before which I also promoted via building more links to them all of a sudden lost their rankings but this is just some sort of filter triggered when something goes wrong with promoting a blog I guess and sooner or later, all of them will be back.

Just Got 2 New Sites – Sam Casuncad Profile

I just got 2 new sites to may name a few days ago and I am glad that I now have time to at least build a little more on my profile in the web. I don’t use to make anything for myself but a few reviews and I just get them from either colleagues or friends in my internet life. It is a rare occasion that I get my name mentioned in the web. There is even one time where I am part of a small mistake I did back when I am literally new to the internet and how it works for me.

Today is a little bit different as the Philippine internet business grow. More and more people are getting in the limelight of having to use the computer at home to find stuff and things about the Philippines and the Philippine market. Since I would like to put myself in it, I decided to make a few more contributions under my name Sam Casuncad and make myself available in the internet for those who just might be interested to find more about me and what I do in my life at home with only my computer in front of me the whole day.

Takipsilim TV Series – Twilight Movie Infringement Bait to Fool the Public

I took a short research about Takipsilim Movie or TV Series, the supposedly Tagalog version of the English movie Twilight today and I found out that someone has actually made some article over in Wikipedia bragging about the TV series allegedly an upcoming drama series by ABS-CBN. I say those links used to lure and deceive the expecting public can clearly be found in Wikipedia will be a clear lead to interests and can be used to pin down the culprit if this case worsens and proves to be false and misleading.

Sponsored Reviews out using PPC for their Service

Yes, today, I just saw Sponsored Reviews going for PPC or Google Adwords for their campaign to snoop out possible businesses to go for their service in promoting and marketing via blogging and blog advertising. The advert says “Thousands of Bloggers Waiting to Promote Your Business”. The title of the advert is “Blog Banners”.

This could mean so many things, first, it could be just another wise move with the growing stiff competition of paid for blogging business review offers and second, it could also possibly mean that Sponsored Reviews is running out of advertisers that they are trying to offer their services to the world with thousands and thousands of bloggers in their camp waiting for assignments.
