10. Play Games To Earn:        

You know by playing online games you can earn some money, don’t believe me!! See the fact behind it. There are many game developing companies that pays the gamers for testing out their games by playing it for hours. And after playing (Testing out) games you have to share your experience what you liked and disliked. Basically it a marketing strategyto learn what is the problems in the games before releasing it publicly. Spending few thousand dollars on testing a game could save a million dollar game So it brings benefits for both gamers and owners.

11. Affiliate Marketing:

Affiliate is one of the simplest ways to earn, it refers to Affiliate marketing to promote a certain product or service to customers. For instance: If I bought a specific product and after going through, I recommend the same product to you. And I ask you to buy the product with my referral. When you buy it, the product company will pay me a certain percentage of your purchase, which is known as commission. This chain would keep on going, if you continue to refer others

Free Website Creation Tutorial For Beginners


Free Website Creation Tutorial For Beginners


Welcome!
You have arrived at a free, beginner-friendly tutorial site that will teach you to create your very own website and you'll be happy to know there is no web design experience needed.
Start here for a quick overview of how to start your site.
Step One
Register a Domain Name (YourSite.com)
Your website needs an address and that's exactly what a domain name is. Choose wisely because this name will represent your brand. You want to select something that fits and is memorable.
Check out these domain registration tips and discover how to get a free guide to help you start your website. Also learn how to get a domain name for only $1.99.
Step Two
Choose a Web Host
The web host is the company that houses your site and provides you with email addresses, space for your web pages, free scripts for blogging, forums, social networking, shopping carts and more.
There are two kinds of hosting options I recommend. The cheaper, do-it-yourself option is best for those who want to learn mostly on their own.
However, if you want to make money with your site, you may decide to go with Site Build It! because this system holds your hand through the brainstorming and building process.
Learn more about web hosting here.
Step Three
Start Building!
How you create your site will depend on the kind you want to make. For example, if you want to create a blog, you can take advantage of the built-in templates that come with the blogging (WordPress) platform.
No coding experience is necessary. All you do is search for the theme you want to use, activate it, make your customizations and your website is ready to go.
If you don't want to use WordPress, you can build using a more manual method or web design software.

What Kind of Site Do You Want?

There are so many different types of websites. From ecommerce, membership to content sites/blogs. Find out the best way to approach your future site. Click here for details on different kinds of websites you can create.

Creating Niche Websites

Niche websites focus on a narrow market. So instead of making a website about something generic like skin care, you may choose to narrow it down to getting rid of acne, or managing eczema.
The more defined your target market is, the easier it will be to engage your audience and sell products to them.
You start by doing some keyword research so you can find a "profitable niche" and build a very useful content-rich website that caters to the audience you've defined.
Once your site is up and running you can monetize it by selling ad space, your own products, joining affiliate programs, and more.
This is the way I've been earning a living since 2006. Learn more about building niche websites here.

Site Build It! (SBI!)

Site Build It!SBI! is a premium website building system for static websites that launched in 2000.
SiteSell prides themselves on the step by step guidance they provide instead of just doling out unlimited gigabytes of web page space and a "good luck!"
Their system comes with a domain name, hosting, autoresponder, brainstorming tools (niche finder), mailing list manager, forum support, site builder, marketing tips and more.
You will receive a video action guide that will walk you through the brainstorming and website building process. The system is broken down into 10 days and you can follow along at your own pace.
SBI! is not really for blogs, but it is for people who want to make simpler, informational websites to make money with Google AdSense, affiliate programs and more.
Find out why people buy Site Build It! here.

Static HTML vs. Dynamic Websites

There are basically two kinds of websites you can create.
1) Static HTML (Content is uploaded and displayed "as is")
2) Dynamic (WordPress, Joomla, etc.) Dynamic means information is pulled from a database so you can display your website content by date, category, etc. Think blogs.
Static HTML sites are not that popular these days. In order to create them, you have to learn HTML, use templates or buy some kind of software like Dreamweaver, Artisteer, etc.
This is actually a static website that you're reading now. It was created long before blogging became popular.
With Site Build It! (above), you will be building a static website, but you don't need any software or learn website design since their system comes with a website builder.
In 2004, WordPress revolutionized the way we build websites because there is no software to buy. You simply install the WordPress script from your web host, launch the admin panel, choose a theme design and begin writing your content.
Because WordPress is dynamic, you can add functionality very easily using plugins. These are scripts (many of them are free) that you install to help you do so many things (collect visitor feedback, build surveys, add social media icons, and more.)
No longer do you have to spend time uploading complicated scripts just to add shopping carts, comments, and all other kinds of functionality to your website.
Read more about the difference between static and blog sites here.

Using WordPress to Make Blogs or Dynamic Sites

WordPress LogoIf you want to create a blog website (content sorted dynamically by category and date), I would highly recommend using WordPress because it's the most flexible, robust blogging system on the Web.
What's cool about this platform is you will have access to a variety of templates you can choose from, so building your website is a breeze.
And when you're ready to change designs, just choose another theme and your site will update instantly!
As you'll see in the video on my WordPress tutorial page, WordPress is not just for blogs where your content is dated and arranged in reverse chronological order. You can use it to create a traditional, static site as well.
Here's a quick overview of how to get started with WordPress.
You can get the full tutorial here.

mobile friendly websiteMaking Your Site Mobile Friendly

Responsive design is trending like never before.
When deciding on a layout for your website, you can't forget about how many people now surf the Web on mobile devices like Smartphones and tablets.
Fortunately platforms like WordPress make creating mobile layouts a breeze and you don't need to know a thing about programming.
Learn more about creating a mobile responsive website and discover what I use for my own sites.

The Free Website Warning

You will never see me endorsing free web hosting. Not only does the web address look unprofessional (freesite.yoursite.com), but you will be very limited to what you can do with your site.
Free sites are also very risky because you don't own your content. So if the company decides to shut down, guess what happens to your content?
Yep. Right down the drain.
Many people make the mistake of starting off free with the intention of moving to a paid host later. The problem is, the process of moving to another host can be a royal pain, so you might as well do it right the first time.
Not convinced yet? Read why I believe free websites are bad.
Also, check out my article that discusses more common mistakes people make with building websites today.

How to Build Traffic to Your Website

Once your site is up and running, the best place to start building traffic is the major search engines because the traffic is free and targeted. Learn how to get listed in Google, Yahoo and Bing and create sitemaps so the engines know about all your web pages.
You can also learn about Google AdWords, YouTube, Email Marketing, social media and more to drive traffic to your website.
Also read up on the importance of Google Authorship and why it's important to target less competitive phrases.

Do You Need to Register a Corporation for Your Website?

You'll be happy to know that you don't have to setup a corporation if you want to make money with your site. Nevertheless, you'll still want to read up on your options with regards to DBAs, LLCs and more.

Still Have Questions About Your Future Website?

questionNeed more info? Maybe there are a few questions that you still need answered about website creation and design.

How to Make / Create a Website: The Beginner's A-Z Guide


The essential step by step guide on how to set up a website


How to Start / Create Your Own Website: The Beginner's A-Z Guide

by Christopher Heng, thesitewizard.com
This tutorial shows you how to make or create a website. It is intended for the beginner and layperson, taking you step by step through the whole process from the very beginning. It makes very few assumptions about what you know (other than the fact that you know how to surf the Internet, since you're already reading this article on the Internet). As some steps are more involved, this guide also links to selected relevant articles on thesitewizard.com that you will need to click through to read for more information.

The Essential Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your Own Website

  1. Get Your Domain Name

    The first thing you need to do before anything else is to get yourself a domain name. A domain name is the name you want to give to your website. For example, the domain name of the website you're reading is "thesitewizard.com". To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. Getting a name does not get you a website or anything like that. It's just a name. It's sort of like registering a business name in the brick-and-mortar world; having that business name does not mean that you also have the shop premises to go with the name.
  2. Choose a Web Host and Sign Up for an Account

    A web host is basically a company that has many computers connected to the Internet. When you place your web pages on their computers, everyone in the world will be able to connect to it and view them. You will need to sign up for an account with a web host so that your website has a home. If getting a domain name is analogous to getting a business name in the brick-and-mortar world, getting a web hosting account is analogous to renting office or shop premises for your business.
    • There are many issues involved in finding a good web host. Read up on the various things you need to look for in searching for a good web host in the article How to Choose a Web Host.
    • After you have an idea of what to look for, you can search for one from the Budget Web Hosting page. You can also find out which web host I'm currently using from the Which Web Host Do You Recommend? page.
    After you sign up for a web hosting account, you will need to point your domain to that account on your web host. Information on how to do this can be found in the guide How to Point a Domain Name to Your Website (Or What to Do After Buying Your Domain Name).
  3. Designing your Web Pages

    Once you have settled your domain name and web host, the next step is to design the web site itself. In this article, I will assume that you will be doing this yourself. If you are hiring a web designer to do it for you, you can probably skip this step, since that person will handle it on your behalf.
    • Although there are many considerations in web design, as a beginner, your first step is to actually get something out onto the web. The fine-tuning can come after you've figured out how to get a basic web page onto your site. One way is to use a WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get") web editor to do it. Such editors allow you to design your site visually, without having to muck around with the technical details. They work just like a normal wordprocessor.
      There are many commercial and free web editors around. For those who don't mind spending money on a good commercial web editor, one of the most highly-regarded WYSIWYG web editors is Dreamweaver. If you are planning to use this editor, thesitewizard.com has an online tutorial called Dreamweaver CS5.5 Tutorial: How to Design a Website with Dreamweaver CS5.5. The tutorial takes you through all the steps of creating a fully-functional website with multiple pages and a feedback form, and provides you with the theoretical and practical foundation that will help you create and maintain your site.
      If you prefer to use free software, you can find a complete tutorial on using KompoZer, a free WYSIWYG web editor, in the article How to Design and Publish Your Website with KompoZer. Like my Dreamweaver tutorial, this one also guides you through the process of creating a website that has a home page, an about page, a site map, a links page and a feedback form. It also shows you some of the main features of the KompoZer software so that you can go on improving and updating your website on your own.
      There are many other web design software around. If you prefer not to use either of the above, you can find some others listed on thefreecountry.com's Free HTML Editors and WYSIWYG Web Editors page. I also have tutorials for a few other WYSIWYG web editorson this site.
    • After you have followed my tutorial, and are on the way to designing your website, you might want to read the article Appearance, Usability and Search Engine Visibility in Web Designas well. The article takes a brief look at some of the real world issues that every web designer must deal with.
    • An integral part of web design is search engine readiness. Search engine promotion does not start after the web site is made. It starts at the web design stage. The article 6 Tips on How to Create a Search Engine Friendly Website is a must-read. My article on How to Improve Your Search Engine Ranking on Google is also important for the simple reason that Google is the most popular search engine around, at least at the time this article was written.
    • There are many other issues regarding the design of web pages. The above will get you started. However, if you have the time after you get something out onto the web, you may want to read my other articles on Web Design and Website Promotion and Search Engine Ranking.
  4. Testing Your Website

    Although I list this step separately, this should be done throughout your web design cycle. I list it separately to give it a little more prominence, since too few new webmasters actually perform this step adequately.
    You will need to test your web pages as you design them in the major browsers: the latest versions of Internet Explorer (version 9 at the time of this writing), Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome. All these browsers can be obtained free of charge, so it should be no hardship to get them. Unfortunately, directly testing your site in all these browsers is the only way you can really be sure that it works the way you want it to on your visitors' machines.
    Optional: If you have the time, you may want to read my article on how to test your website in multiple versions of Internet Explorer and check your site under earlier versions of Internet Explorer ("IE"), namely IE 8, IE 7, and IE 6. This is not strictly necessary nowadays, since the main culprit causing website problems, IE 6, is slowly disappearing from the Internet, with IE 7 following in its heels.
    If you want to improve the chances that your website will work in future versions of all web browsers, consider validating the code for your web pages. In layman's language, this means that you should check that the underlying code of your web page, called "HTML" and "CSS", have no syntax errors. You don't actually need technical knowledge of HTML and CSS to validate the page, since you can use one of the numerous free web page validators around to do the hard work. On the other hand, if the validator tells you that your page has errors, it may sometimes be hard to figure out what's wrong (and whether the error is actually a serious one) if you don't have the requisite knowledge. Having said that, some validators actually give concrete suggestions on how to fix your code, and one of them, called "HTML Tidy", is even supposed to be able to fix your code for you.
  5. Collecting Credit Card Information, Making Money

    If you are selling products or services, you will need some way to collect credit card information. You should read up on How to Accept Credit Cards on Your Website. I also have a step by step guide on How to Add an Order Form or a "Buy Now" button using PayPal to a Website for those using PayPal.
    If you need advertisers for your website, you might want to read How to Make Money From Your Website and the follow-up article How to Increase Your Website Revenue from Affiliate Programs. A list of advertisers and affiliate programs can be found on Affiliate Programs: Free Sponsors and Advertisers. Those companies are on the constant lookout for new web publishers to display their advertisements.
  6. Getting Your Site Noticed

    When your site is ready, you will need to submit it to search engines like Google and Bing. You can use the links below to do this.
    In general, if your site is already linked to by other websites, you may not even need to submit it to these search engines. They will probably find it themselves by following the links on those websites.
    Apart from submitting your site to the search engine, you may also want to consider promoting it in other ways, such as the usual way people did things before the creation of the Internet: advertisements in the newspapers, word-of-mouth, etc. There are even companies on the Internet, like PRWeb, that can help you create press releases, which may get your site noticed by news sites and blogs.As mentioned in my article on More Tips on Google Search Engine Results Placement, you can also advertise in the various search engines. Although I only mentioned Google in that article, since that was the topic of that discussion, you can also advertise in other search engines like Bing and Yahoo!.This has the potential of putting your advertisement near the top of the search engine results page, and possibly even on other websites.
    There are also less obvious ways of promoting your website, which you might want to look into.

How to Hack Facebook Account Passwords 100%?



How to Hack Facebook Account Passwords 100%?


Hi friends, Today I am going to reveal all the Best methods that can be used to hack a Facebook account password. I will show Best ways to Hack Facebook Account Password that all hackers usually use to hack any Facebook account.
1. Facebook Phishing Attack:

I am explaining this method first because its the most easiest and also the most popular method for hacking Facebook password. You can also search on Google the various famous Facebook hacking methods and you will find Phishing technique on the top always. And I am explaining the methods according to their popularity.
Now you want to know which is my favorite method for Hacking Facebook account passwords and i will undoubtedly tell its simply PHISHING.
I will recommend my users to read this post for knowing how to hack Facebook using Phishing as i have explained it in detail here:
How to hack Facebook accounts or Passwords using Phishing 
2. Hacking Facebook account password remotely using Keyloggers and RAT's:

Best method for advanced Hackers and my second favorite too. Its popularity is little but lower than Phishing only because it involves you to download hack tool and then create your keylogger and send it to victim which is a lengthy process and also unsecured too as you don't aware that the keylogger that you downloading is himself contain some spyware or simply a keylogger attached with it. Keylogging becomes more easy if you have physical access to victim computer as only thing you have to do is install a keylogger and direct it to your destination so that it will send all recorded keystrokes to pointed destination. What a keylogger does is it records the keystrokes into a log file and then you can use these logs to get required Facebook password and thus can hack Facebook password. 
3. Hacking the Primary Email address: 
If Facebook hacker or any specific Keylogger, by some means, hacks your primary Gmail or yahoo account which you are using as primary email address, then this information account can easily hack your Facebook password using "Forgot password" trick. The Hacker will simply ask Facebook to send password to the primary email address and ask Facebook administrators to send the reset email to your primary email address- which is already hacked. Thus, your Facebook account password will be reset and it will also be hacked. 
So, always remember to protect your primary email address that you have used to create Facebook account and try to keep unknown or useless mail id as your primary email address in Facebook.
4. Social Engineering or Guessing Passwords:
A social engineering attack is one in which the intended victim is somehow tricked into doing the attacker's bidding. An example would be responding to a phishing email, following the link and entering your banking credentials on a fraudulent website. The stolen credentials are then used for everything from finance fraud to outright identity theft. An old adage comes to mind here, "it pays to be suspicious". With socially engineered attacks, the opposite is also true - if you aren't suspicious, you likely will end up paying. In addition to phishing, social engineering attacks can come in many forms - email that masquerades as breaking news alerts, or greeting cards, or announcements of bogus lottery winnings. Pump and dump stock scams are also a form of social engineering, playing on the recipients' natural desire to take advantage of a good deal. It's important to remember that if something sounds too good to be true, it's probably a scam. Social engineering attacks are also often used to trick users into infecting their own systems - for example, by disguising the malware as a video codec or Flash update. An email is sent enticing the recipient to view a bogus video clip, the victim visits the link contained in the email and installs the "codec/update" which turns out to be a backdoor Trojan or keystroke logger.
Remember: with social engineering scams, the attacker is relying on you to make the wrong choice. Choose not to be a victim.
Some Common passwords that you can try on your friends are : 
1. Their mobile number or their girlfriend or boyfriend mobile number. 
 (always try his previous or old mobile number as they are not as much as fool that they appears)
2. Their Girlfriend or boyfriend names or their own names concatenating with their Girlfriend or boyfriend names.
3. Date of births
4. Their favorite movie names , cartoon character names or favorite music band names or simply the hero names like batman,dark knight, Superman,Godzilla, Spartacus and much more..
5. Most important now most website ask that password should be alphanumeric now what users do they just adds 1,2,3 in their normal passwords and some more smart guys adds !,@,# in their passwords and amazingly all in Sequence.

How to secure files from other users on external disks

If you use an external disk drive with OS X, you may notice that when it is mounted, it becomes available for all users on the system. Therefore, if you have files you have saved to a USB drive and you attach it to your system and you switch user accounts, those files will be viewable within the second account.
In addition, if you have network file sharing enabled, the files on this drive will be accessible to any user who logs in via the network.
This behavior may seem a bit concerning, especially for those who have set up encryption on secondary drives in hopes of preventing others from viewing their files, but this is normal behavior in OS X, and essentially means two things:

  1. Encryption by itself is only meant to secure a drive's contents from access if the drive has been locked (ie, removed from the system, or the system shut down). It is not meant to protect one users' files from another user on the same system. While unlocking the drive is limited to those who have the password, once unlocked then all users will have access just like any other USB or Firewire drive.

    On a related note, there has been past concern about encrypted drives being easily remounted if you tell it to eject but do not detach them from the system; however, this is ultimately not a security threat. Simply do not use encryption to protect data from another account on the system, as this purpose is not its intent. Instead, only use it to prevent a thief or other third-party who you have not given access to your computer, from accessing your files.
  2. External hard drives are open to all users by default. Even though all hard drives are capable of containing permissions restrictions like any other folder on the system, for external drives OS X turns this feature off. This is primarily because permissions settings are specific to one operating system installation, so those set by one system may either not be observed by another, or be interpreted to mean something entirely different and result in improper access to the files.
If set up independently, encryption will not protect your files from other local users, and permissions may be overcome by using the drive with another system. Therefore, the way to fully secure the files on your external drive is to enable both of these features.
To do this, first enable encryption on the drive by right-clicking it in the Finder and choosing the Encrypt Drive option. Supply the password to use when prompted, and then wait for the drive to remount as an encrypted volume.

Next, enable permissions observation on the drive by selecting it and pressing Command-I to get information on the drive. In the information window that appears, expand the Sharing section and click the lock to authenticate. Then uncheck the option to "Ignore Ownership on this volume."
With this setting in place, the system will now observe permissions restrictions on the drive, which you can set to permit or deny access to specific users (note that this will only work to manage access for nonadministrator accounts -- admin accounts will always be able to grant themselves access to files and folders).
By default, the drive will be owned by the account that formatted it, so you should see your username listed as the first item in the Sharing & Permissions list. Next the drive should have a group association of "staff" (underneath your username) which is the default group for all local accounts on the system. This allows you to set global permissions for accounts other than yours.
Finally, there should be an "everyone" group that encompasses all other users on the system, such as a guest user account that is not a member of the "staff" group.
At this point, you have two possible approaches for the drive. The first is to set its permissions so only you have access to it, and the second is to set it up with a subdirectory or two that is only restricted to your account, so other accounts can do the same and have their sequestered and private folders.
Single user access permissions for external drive
To only allow your account access, remove all groups and users except for your account, and set "everyone" to "no access."

Single-user access
To set the drive so only you have access, in the Sharing & Permissions section of the information window, choose "no access" for the "staff" group (or simply select and remove this group altogether). Then set the "everyone" group to likewise have "no access."
When finished, click the small gear menu and select the option to apply these settings to all enclosed items (this step is not needed on an empty drive).
At this point the entire drive will be a private, detachable folder for your account. Even though it will show up as a device in other accounts on the system, if they try to access it then they will be given a "permission denied" error.
Multi-user access permissions for external drive
To allow multiple users to read the drive, set the "staff" permissions accordingly. If you set it to "Read Only" (so the top level of the drive cannot be modified) then be sure to put a folder on the drive, and set its permissions so each user can read it. Additionally, be sure to set "everyone" to have no access.

Multiuser access
To set the drive up so other users have access, leave the drive's permissions as their default so the "staff" group is intact and has full read and write permissions. Then open the drive in the Finder and create a folder on it to store your files. Now get information on this folder and set it so only your account is in the Sharing & Permissions list, with "read & write" access, and with all others set to "no access."
From here, your account will be able to view the files in this folder, but other accounts will not.
As an additional security measure, you can set up a similar folder for each account on the system, and when finished get information on the drive itself and set the "staff" group to "read only" permissions (do not use the gear menu's option to apply permissions to enclosed items). With this setup, when another user opens the drive, they will only be able to drag items to their specific folder, and neither to another user's folder nor to the top level of the drive.
Regardless of the approach you use, at this point you will have a drive that has secured resources from other users, and one that is also encrypted and thereby protected from someone attempting to override the permissions settings by attaching it to another computer.

How to make your Bluetooth speaker sound better

How to make your Bluetooth speaker sound better

(Credit: Steve Guttenberg/CNET)
One great thing about Bluetooth speakers is you can use them to learn about how room size and acoustics affect a given speaker's sound quality. Experiment with placement and you'll quickly learn that where you put a speaker in a room can make a big difference in the sound, for better or worse. That's true for all speakers, but since BT speakers tend to be small and light, they're easier to move around.
Start by putting the speaker on the floor in the middle of the room, and you'll hear that it makes more bass than it does sitting on a table. It will also probably sound dull and lacking in detail down there. Next, try putting the speaker in a corner, on the floor, and it will make even more bass. After that, try putting it on a table in the corner, and you'll get back the missing treble, but the speaker will probably sound better a couple of feet away from the corner. Move the speaker to each wall in the room, again at the same 3-foot height, and see if one wall sounds better than the others. Then move it a foot at a time along that wall, and you might see that one or two spots might be better than the others. So you see, everything changes the sound; a little experimentation might yield surprising results.
Battery-powered Bluetooth speakers are the easiest to move about, but if you move any speaker from a large room to a small tiled bathroom, and don't adjust the volume control, you'll be surprised how much louder the speaker sounds. Without adjusting the volume setting, take the speaker outside; it will seem much quieter, and you might not even hear it outdoors. Again, the environment changes the way a speaker sounds -- and the differences are far from subtle.
Of course, you can try the same experiments with wired speakers; it's just a little harder to do, but definitely worth the effort. The better the speaker, the bigger the differences you're likely to hear as you change positions, and the changes will be more pronounced with stereo speakers (BT speakers are nearly always mono or single-speaker systems).
After you try out some changes, please share your experiences in the comments section below.
