Find Work Abroad the Conventional Way

Have you read the previous post "how to start a new" and "don't be left behind" to find work abroad! Here is another way to find work abroad the conventional way.

While i prefer the comfort of internet searching still the most effective and successful way is to walk in to recruitment agencies for employment abroad.

Where to find the recruitment agency? It's better to first make a list of job prospect, browse the sunday issues of Inquirer and Manila Bulletin (they have a huge list every sunday) Once you have the list of your prospective jobs. Locate the recruitment office, the ads of this recruitment agency have their address, but first make sure the recruitment agency is accredited by POEA. Yes! its time to visit the office POEA to make sure that the agency is authorized and have not pending suspension cases with POEA. Just fill-up the form for details of the recruitment agency and get the result in just a few minutes. To get the complete details of your agency check out this directory from OFW Guide. This is just a list the official accreditation will come from the result of your inquiry at POEA.

The main purpose while scouting for employment abroad is to not fall victim to illegal recruitment, don't believe word of month or brochures circulating offering high salary, bear in mind that these company importing expat worker want to reduce their work force salary, thus will give less pay for expats. How to avoid this illegal recruiters...read POEA's tip.

One example are our nurses, the principal countries citizens receives four times the salary of our most experience nurses. Can you believe that! (This is not a general statement as others received salary as the countries national born citizen, but the catch is this, that the country giving equally pay empose high taxes). Where will you go! The best is to work....save....become an entrepreneur to our own country. Return the favor to our mother land!...(period :-)

(yes residents) It's free but and upgrade to a premium account would allow you to buy property build and design your own house and become a full time resident. (create what ever you want) The best thing is you can also meet people. Once a resident you can retain the rights to their digital creations, you can buy, sell and trade with other residents. You can also log-in for free and have a look around.

Like me (well not about second life) but second chance for my 1st blog. I created it Jan/07, (this is my first baby) since i'm a newbie i tried to write the progress of my quest to the blogging world, but the competition is so stiff that i abandon it. I did not take it to seriously only after 3 months after reading tons of tutorials from gurus. Ranging from free to paid even to scam. Good thing i stumble upon marketing expert Ken Evoy, he told me to leave this blogging and marketing topic to the expert and that's what i did. Anyway since second life or second chance is virtually possible i'm deleting my first blog: Akino Online Money Making Progress and posting the 6 entry i made here at Kabayan Junction. Hope you like it. (i'll still continue my blogging progress here in Kabayan Junction). I still have two other blogs i will delete and post a second chance here at Kabayan Junction.

From my Online Money Making - (An Honest Progress)

My history

Life is so simple; after graduation I immediately got a job in a small company and performed it well, because I was promoted regularly. What more can I ask for, 6/7, 9-10 was my life. Six days a week, nine to ten hours a day, was my routine for years. This halted my progress; because I was believed that what I’m doing is gratifying.

This was my mindset and life for a long time. But as the year progress I became a frustrated worker. I felt like there is an empty part of me that I missed to accomplish, and this is our nature.

As a human being we desire; we yearn for things of this world for satisfaction. In doing so we frustrate and bore our self in doing things that can’t fulfill this need. This is the reason I decided to change my career path.

But what are the most indemand and high paying career?

Posted by E Akino

High paying job.

What are the careers that pay’s well?

Is it the licensed professionals earning big and are successful in this life? Will the Lawyers, Engineers, Doctors, Accountants, PH degree holder and others are earning enough?

What if your not one of the list of high earning professionals? Is it the end?

It’s not!!!

Yours truly is not a licensed professional, only earn enough, but has the dream and drive to succeed in life. I have tried everything, even got into networking and retailing, but still not enough.

Then, while using the internet my friend forwarded me an email about a topic on how to make money at home from internet. I knew this is a fast growing industry and many are saying that companies are making billion of dollars each year. I thought why not take advantage of this fast rising trend.

I research, read and learn as much as I could about online jobs there is in the market. I will list down some of the markets in demand home generating income next time.

2 kinds of online business product

The internet is the next big thing in communication, information, technology and even in business. Forecasts are saying that company business will not survive and continue if they will not associate with online market. But, is this a reality?

As the trend of some big product line and huge companies, internet will become a big factor to strengthen the business world. In the future this will be the foundation of every business. The internet can expand and open the market share of a new product. The accessibility and high-speed is its main advantage.

What are two kinds of online product?

These are the (1) tangible products and (2) electronic products.

Tangible products are actual product that needs shipping to the buyer’s location. The world will never be the same because with online market. A particular country product can be advertise and sell to different part of the world. Mainly the primary basic need of people and others like, handicrafts, furniture, and jewelries.

Hence electronic products are intangibles like software and e-books. The publishing industries are proposing for online circulation of their products. If these materialize we can expect our newspaper and monthly magazine not from our doorstep but on our electronic mail box.

Electronic and internet is now shaping the future, better take the ride than to be left behind.

10 online money making ventures

What are the types of internet business possibilities?

I came across this possibility when a chat buddy sent me an email from his list of newsletter from different internet marketers. At first I was just curious if this is true, because my impression with internet is just a medium of advertisement, information and communication. It never crossed my mind that people are actually earning from this technology. Maybe this is because I was searching and using the internet the wrong way.

This is why I got interest to making online money and ease-up my constant chatting. I even stopped sending and registering to different online job provider.

After reading many post and research regarding online money making. I came up with some of the most common online money making ventures. Some of them are as follows:

1. Blog
2. Affiliate Marketing
3. Pay Per Click Advertising
4 . Pay Per Lead Advertising
5. Search Engine
6. Banner Advertising
7. E-mail Marketing
8. Drop Shipping
9. Online Market Research

After 2 weeks update

It has been a while since I last write something here. For two weeks I dedicate myself to reading most of the online money making articles in the net. Browsing and admiring the sites of online money making gurus that provide information, advice and insights. How envy I was reading their success and at the same time I’m encourage to their story.

Other sites I stumble into truly are good and sincere in helping online wanna be. But most of the sites I visited are just selling and promoting their product. All they do is lure people to easy money and a promise of huge return in the shortest time possible. They are the online gurus that tell and give presentations of hundreds of success stories; people who succeed thru their site. But is it really true, yes it is, but if it as easy as they would say it was, it would be so popular that you must have known about it long time ago, but you have not, since you’re still reading this article. Some even discourage free sites as a means of internet venture; it may be true since lots of provision with free site hold your progress in the internet success. But who can resist free; this free site could start your curiosity before venturing to the larger world. There many good products to promote and excellent to invest your time and money with the equivalent or much higher return.

Just like you and me, in our quest to uplift our way of living and finding success in all form, internet definitely is another way to reach this goal; we just have to learn the process in which the first achiever succeed and be aware of what we do. Be vigilant to all online money making online provider and guru. Online success to you and me.

Blog – a free online money making tool

Yes! This is true; there are many successful internet money makers who started from blogging. If you look-up their site they even share their ideas and experiences. Some even list the detail and statistics of their weekly earning. I sometimes think how easy it is to copy their success and follow their foot steps. But the reality is it’s not that easy. They don’t make that big just after a few days. Just like you and me they struggled; learn the basic and advance ways before they started to build their success, with some exception of course. LOL.

There are also some blog, free site, I came across that exaggerate but fall short and whines over a few dollars lost, funny but true.

Personally I have not tapped even the tip of what this bloggers statistics say. May be because I lack the knowledge and skill, but this won’t hinder me from my goal. I’ll won’t stop to learn and improve what I started. I believe that this first step would make me far as others have gone.

Good luck to you also.

A familiar scene if you spend your free time on internet cafe surfing or playing online games. This scene for me is so familiar but not cuz i waste my free time by surfing or playing, but by using my time for better use. This is how i scout for a job/work abroad. I do better by submitting copies of copy and paste resume to various job vacancy available and to large job scouting sites. Instead of traveling (i hate driving long trip with my Kawasaki Aura 110) in the scolding sun i find the benefit of being IN or at pace with technology to benefit me.

While other go the hassle of traveling and falling the long queue applying to agency. I'm setting on an aircon i.t. worx cafe enjoying the benefits of being tech savvy.

Complaining to every person you know how you hated your work and the company your working.

10 Blog Traffic Tips

In every bloggers life comes a special day - the day they first launch a new blog. Now unless you went out and purchased someone else's blog chances are your blog launched with only one very loyal reader - you. Maybe a few days later you received a few hits when you told your sister, father, girlfriend and best friend about your new blog but that's about as far you went when it comes to finding readers.

Here are the top 10 techniques new bloggers can use to find readers. These are tips specifically for new bloggers, those people who have next-to-no audience at the moment and want to get the ball rolling.

It helps if you work on this list from top to bottom as each technique builds on the previous step to help you create momentum. Eventually once you establish enough momentum you gain what is called "traction", which is a large enough audience base (about 500 readers a day is good) that you no longer have to work too hard on finding new readers. Instead your current loyal readers do the work for you through word of mouth.

Top 10 Tips

10. Write at least five major "pillar" articles. A pillar article is a tutorial style article aimed to teach your audience something. Generally they are longer than 500 words and have lots of very practical tips or advice. This article you are currently reading could be considered a pillar article since it is very practical and a good "how-to" lesson. This style of article has long term appeal, stays current (it isn’t news or time dependent) and offers real value and insight. The more pillars you have on your blog the better.

9. Write one new blog post per day minimum. Not every post has to be a pillar, but you should work on getting those five pillars done at the same time as you keep your blog fresh with a daily news or short article style post. The important thing here is to demonstrate to first time visitors that your blog is updated all the time so they feel that if they come back tomorrow they will likely find something new. This causes them to bookmark your site or subscribe to your blog feed.

You don't have to produce one post per day all the time but it is important you do when your blog is brand new. Once you get traction you still need to keep the fresh content coming but your loyal audience will be more forgiving if you slow down to a few per week instead. The first few months are critical so the more content you can produce at this time the better.

8. Use a proper domain name. If you are serious about blogging be series about what you call your blog. In order for people to easily spread the word about your blog you need a easily rememberable domain name. People often talk about blogs they like when they are speaking to friends in the real world (that's the offline world, you remember that place right?) so you need to make it easy for them to spread the word and pass on your URL. Try and get a .com if you can and focus on small easy to remember domains rather than worry about having the correct keywords (of course if you can get great keywords and easy to remember then you’ve done a good job!).

7. Start commenting on other blogs. Once you have your pillar articles and your daily fresh smaller articles your blog is ready to be exposed to the world. One of the best ways to find the right type of reader for your blog is to comment on other people’s blogs. You should aim to comment on blogs focused on a similar niche topic to yours since the readers there will be more likely to be interested in your blog.

Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you leave a comment. This is how people find your blog. If you are a prolific commentor and always have something valuable to say then people will be interested to read more of your work and hence click through to visit your blog.

6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another blogger's article you can do a trackback to their entry. What this does is leave a truncated summary of your blog post on their blog entry - it's sort of like your blog telling someone else’s blog that you wrote an article mentioning them. Trackbacks often appear like comments.

This is a good technique because like leaving comments a trackback leaves a link from another blog back to yours for readers to follow, but it also does something very important - it gets the attention of another blogger. The other blogger will likely come and read your post eager to see what you wrote about them. They may then become a loyal reader of yours or at least monitor you and if you are lucky some time down the road they may do a post linking to your blog bringing in more new readers.

5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work. If they see people commenting on your blog then they infer that your content must be good since you have readers so they should stick around and see what all the fuss is about. To encourage comments you can simply pose a question in a blog post. Be sure to always respond to comments as well so you can keep the conversation going.

4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic. The idea is to collect some of the best content on a topic in a given week. Often many other blogs link back to a carnival host and as such the people that have articles featured in the carnival often enjoy a spike in new readers.

To find the right blog carnival for your blog, do a search at blogcarnival.com.

3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of new readers but it's so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it's worth the effort. Go to Blog Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it. You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!

2. Submit your articles to EzineArticles.com. This is another tip that doesn’t bring in hundreds of new visitors immediately (although it can if you keep doing it) but it's worthwhile because you simply leverage what you already have - your pillar articles. Once a week or so take one of your pillar articles and submit it to Ezine Articles. Your article then becomes available to other people who can republish your article on their website or in their newsletter.

How you benefit is through what is called your "Resource Box". You create your own resource box which is like a signature file where you include one to two sentences and link back to your website (or blog in this case). Anyone who publishes your article has to include your resource box so you get incoming links. If someone with a large newsletter publishes your article you can get a lot of new readers at once.

1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all of the techniques I’ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you do everything above you may bring in readers but they won’t stay or bother to come back. Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

I hope you enjoyed my list of traffic tips. Everything listed above are techniques I’ve put into place myself for my blogs and have worked for me, however it's certainly not a comprehensive list. There are many more things you can do. Finding readers is all about testing to see what works best for you and your audience and I have no doubt if you put your mind to it you will find a balance that works for you.
