Greatest Russian CyberCrime group completely vanishes

Security experts belive that the top notch Cyber Crime Organization, RBN (Russian Business Network) has disappeared and chances are will re-emerge in China putting a huge amount of pressure on the Chinese government.

They are dubbed 'the mother of cybercrime'.


To sum it up:

1. They provide web hosting to online criminals
2. They have been accused of creating up to a dozen fake anti spy ware and virus removal tools
3. They are leaders in the Cyber Crime industry
4. The U.S. Treasury says 'Cyber Crime industry' accumulates more profit than the illegal drug
5. Cyber Crime industry estimated accumulates more than 100$ billion a year
6. Some analysts say they are tied with the Russian government
7. They might even play a part in the recent 'Cyber Attacks' on Estonian cyberspace
8. Russian Authorities HAVE made a attempt to impose tougher penalties for cyber criminals and This just might be the reason for them leaving
9. There have been a reported unusual bulk registries of THOUSANDS of Web addresses in China
10. This is the common trend and practice of the RBN leading even more speculation that this will be the new home
11. VeriSign has accurately labeled them 'the baddest of the bad'

I promise for some new posts :)

China and Africa best friends forever

After

A address in concern of the African Development Bank in Shanghai,

Wen Jiabao

urges rich nations to help with debt relief, trade, and to provide the continent with general aid.


China has then suffered criticism that it is only interested in the continent for its value in raw materials,

But analysts say China shows growing support with the effort of holding the first ever annual ADB meeting in Asia.

"Africa needs to rely on itself to sustain development but international support and systems are also indispensable,"

...

"We call on the international community to deliver on aid pledges to Africa and reduce and cancel African debt."

Mr Wen told delegates the first part of the meeting on Wednesday.

"We are truly sincere in helping Africa speed up economic and social development for the benefit of the African people and its nations,"


China Receives nearing one third of there oil and other raw material resources from Africa.

They have helped feed the country's economic transformation with more than 700 Chinese companies that are active in Africa, and trade that has quadrupled in the past six years to a estimated $55 billion.


China has already written off $1.5 billion in debt towards Africa and says will do such similar action again.

Candidate gives Edward's close shave

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- It wasn't more than twenty minutes into the GOP presidential debate when one of the candidates took a shot at former Sen. John Edwards' expensive haircut.

This is after last month it was revealed he had spent 400$ on two occasions for a haircut by stylist Joseph Torrenueva.

I think maybe the real shot was towards Sen. John Edwards' self esteem....

I wonder how many of the presidential candidates cut there own hair?

I wonder what percentage of those use As Seen On TV Items to do so.

Market Segmentation vs Web Log Trash

cult status web log achievement happens not only by content but by market segmentation (or as I like to call it Market Fascism).

Sorry I think that was my snippet toolbar for sure no real pun intended.


This is done by attitudinal research and a lot of common sense.



many people are stuck on Mass Advertising technique's, If you have a Blog that is very personal; specific, then you should realize how much more money your blog is worth than those targeting huge audiences.

search engines have completely stopped sending irrelevant traffic as I have all ready said, If your site does not contain a high ratio of people that do not bounce without viewing content on your site, or a high percentage of return traffic... Your site will get dropped and eventually most search engines will consider it trash and even blacklist it.

HowTo: Famed Not Flamed

HowTo: Famed Not Flamed

With the ever increasing number of totally useful blogs that are pretty much based on blogging;

Here is a quick rundown on what you want to look for.

1) Traffic from Search Engines - ALL WAYS TRACK VISITORS MOVEMENTS

2) Once you get the traffic, Make sure it does not bounce without exploring your site, under 50% of visitors bouncing is good. It is said that if nearing 80% of your visitors leave you will get dropped by search engines

3) Try to keep your percentage of repeat visitors to 30% if that is not the case you will surely die.

4) It is a MUST to Include links back to other, and relevant posts. If for no other reason people are stealing your posts and syndicating them on add sites so you might as well get a link back inside the content if nothing else.

Incentive Traffic Breakdown

What is it?

Offering Incentive to follow a link or visit your web based on any incentive other than page content, for say the classic 'visit my car blog for a chance at wining a free car'

What is the difference between, Incentive Offers and Incentive Traffic?

A Incentive Offer might be, once visiting the site they see a offer that might say 'Complete this offer and receive 20$ gift card', you getting 10$ for say. Another good example is my Google Adsense; I don't ever tell people to click my adds, that I make money if they download Google pack, or offer any type of incentive, not so much as ask to click that banner right there

------------------------------------------------>
Its totally against the rules. So you can tell this website has no Incentive Traffic, or Incentive Offers either.


Why would you want it?

If you wish to drive up traffic right before you exchange or sell links or advertisement spots. Incentive Traffic and Offers are best used this way, as you would throw salt into your fish tank.

Why would you not?

The best reason to not want Incentive Traffic is because it is exactly that, They are there only with Incentive, Not because they want to be; Or even want to participate in Incentive Offers. They are there to get there Incentive.

MySpace doesn't hate gays it just has bias towards christians

More and More blog talk lately...

... about the MySpace technical bug that 'keeps you from being gay on myspace'. But you still have lots of room to personalize your MySpace, Like letting them know you are "Mormon", "Catholic" or "Christian - Other".

Currently on MySpace you cant specify being Christian, without specifying either that you ARE from one certain denomination, or specifying that you are not at least two of them.

Maybe it is just be but I would like a "Christian- Non-Denominational" or "Christian - Blogger". Then again maybe "Blogger - Other" or implementing popular Social Bookmarking tools.

Thank you Canada

Iv had quiet a few of visitors this last week to my blog, but the majority of my new traffic this week has came from Canada. Not only but my visitors from Canada actually make use of the site, with social bookmarking and using a news reader to view the site (in witch is ad free i might bloat)

I will try to direct some content towards you guys in some of the upcoming posts this week,

Thanks a ton!
