I wanted to take tonight to warn everyone about a virus that is actually scheduled to crawl the web looking for vulnerable systems to attack. The name of this virus is the Conficker Virus.

We must make sure that we are doing everything we can to protect ourselves from this virus. Conficker blocks infected PCs from accessing the antivirus vendors' and Microsoft's web sites. Those unfortunate enough to experience the Conficker won't get automatic updates and can't download the Conficker removal tools that vendors like Microsoft have developed.

Those who do not get regular updates on their computers are vulnerable to this virus. Those with versions of Microsoft that are not legitimate or pirated version are very susceptible to the Conficker virus because they do NOT get regular updates of Microsoft and more than likely do not have the updated patches to tackle this virus. Luckily there are sites looking to fight this virus head on and are providing tools to help you. Symantec is one of them and the tool can be found here

If you find that your computer is infected, have a friend download the tool and email it to you. Questionable sites will not keep you safe. This virus is tricky and can attack anywhere. If your computer is blocked from accessing certain security sites, then you may be infected.

Work at Home Leads

Work at home leads out of the way, lets discuss how dangerous scams can be to our wallets. Here are a few lines to watch out for when looking for work from home:
Act now, only 2 positions left!
Listen to this automated message available for all!
No skills required. Make $2000 a week.
We are a sponsored advertiser on a legitimate site . . . buy now!
Hiring rebate processor
Virtual assistant $34/hr

Call this number for legitimate work at home opportunity. . . "Thank you for calling, this is a top secret thing that I am placing in a recording for everyone to hear but yet you, oh you are special. I want you to work for me doing something vague, possibly illegal and I need you to enter your account number at the sound of the beep. BEEP!

These are just a few of the many lies they use to scam those who work at home. Its a million if not billion dollar industry. There is money in scams but there is also jail time. You could face jail time for following their instructions and "scammers" could possibly go free. Its not fair but it is a harsh reality. For more of these tips on watching out for scams, join me and many others in T.Rochelle's Tips.

Making your website more search engine friendly can be done several ways. Keywords are very valuable (as I have stated before) and should be used in the title as well as in your blog and the site's URL. Lets say your blog is gonna be about life in Texas. Your url should have something to do with a keyword that you will use often in your blog. http://www.TalkTexas.com (just an example not meant to be a real site) This would make a wonderful URL because you WILL use the word Texas often. "Ice Storm Chills Texas Heat" (title) Discuss in the body of your blog, the ice storm and of course Texas and make ice storm and Texas keywords. This is a good use of keywords. You do not want to overuse your keywords but this will allow you to get good use of them. Next, have a user friendly blog. Avoid having a blog that is very busy and congested. This is a turnoff for readers. Nice clean simplicity and a natural look is a appealing.

Try and avoid the cute little graphics if at all possible (I know how you feel ....who doesn't like the little care bear gifs but avoid anyway). Make sure your links work. You want credible links because the links are a reflection of your site. Do not give your viewers any reason to doubt your credibility. Also, make sure that you are able to present nice clean links that makes sense. "Read more about the ice storm at The Weather Channel" You want the hyperlink on the words ice storm and not on Weather Channel. You are bringing attention to YOUR content not necessarily the Weather Channel's website. Now you want to submit your blog link to directories and search engines. Click here for a list of sites.

You also want to link to as many blogs as you possibly can. The best way to do this is to find highly ranked blogs (that interest you of course ....yes this is a moral moment) and post comments to their blogs that in turn link back to your blog. They do this because when you comment you enter your blog url in the URL box. Last but not least, blog and blog frequently. Stay on topic and try not to fluctuate from topic. Also, DO NOT change your domain. You will loose a lot of traffic that way.
