7 you must have in Google+ Chrome Browser Extensions

If you’re on Google+, and you’re using the Google’s Chrome browser, here are some lovely browser extensions which will help make your Google+ experience an even better one!  If you’re not on Google+ just request for an invite in the comments below.


1. How to handle your Google+ notifications without being on Google’s properties

One of my favorite Google+ features was that black bar on top which enabled you to receive and respond to your Google+ notifications anytime you were using any Google product like Google search or Gmail.  This feature makes it so much more convenient to continue conversations you have on the network.
The ‘Surplus extension’ however takes this one step further and just embeds your Google+ notifications directly into your browser so you can now handle notifications from anywhere.  Not only that, you can also update your status on Google+ and share links to your networks with one click as well.

2. How to reply directly to the original person who shared content on Google+

Another awesome feature of Google+ is that if you reshare a post, it still gives credit to the person who originally shared it.  What the ‘Replies and more Extension’ does is it augments the reply options of Google+ so you’re able to reply the source directly, which is good if you’re trying to provide encouragement or feedback.

3. How to de-clutter your comment stream on Google+

The +Comment toggle extension is a lifesaver when it comes to quickly scanning your Google+ stream.  What it does is it rolls up comments and only displays them when you want to have a look at them.  This means less scrolling, and it becomes much easier to quickly find and interact with content you’re interested in.

4.  How to +1 ANY web page

If you look to your left, you should be able to see a +1 button which I’ve put into this blog.  Click this button enables you to tell people on your Google network that you like this post.  Which is great when a page has a +1 button built in, but lots and lots of web pages do not have this functionality yet. 
So if you do want to +1 a page quickly, just try out the ‘Plus-One-Anything’ extension and you’re on your way.

4. How to instantly view full sized images in your Google+ stream

photozoom 7 Must Have Google+ Chrome Browser Extensions

If you’re looking for a faster way to view your photos in your Google+ stream this is it.  No need to click on photos, or visit albums.  Once you install the +Photo Zoom extension, you just need to hover your mouse cursor over the picture, and you get a full sized image.  Perfect for quickly scanning your stream and looking through your friend’s photos.

5.  How to display your Google+ notification count on your chrome browser tab

 count 7 Must Have Google+ Chrome Browser Extensions
Another one of Google+’s awesome features is that it supports real-time live updates without having to refresh your browser.  So, technically you could just keep your Google+ running in a background tab.  What you don’t want however, is to keep checking it unless you know you have a notification waiting for you.  The G+ Count extension displays the notification count on your tab so you can always stay on top of things.

6. How to tweet directly from your Google+ stream

helper 7 Must Have Google+ Chrome Browser Extensions
It’s early days in Google+, so you may choose to share some of that great content you’re reading on your stream to twitter.
The ‘Helper for Google+’ extension allows you to share a post on your stream on Twitter directly from Google+, but bear in mind that it shares the Google+ link, not the content link.  Which is also good in a way, because it encourages other people to add you to their Google+ circles.  It also comes with a button to translate any foreign languages on Google+ as well.

7. How to soup up the keyboard shortcuts in Google+

extended 7 Must Have Google+ Chrome Browser Extensions
Google+ already comes with a few keyboard shortcuts, but G+ Extended adds a ton of functionality like the ability to instantly expand older comments, or sharing a post with just a keystroke.  This is perfect if you’re in a rush and want to move faster.
It’s going to be an exciting time as Google+ continues to evolve, and I’m sure we’ll start seeing more and more of these awesome extensions in the future.

Publishing to Twitter from Facebook Pages

Many people have asked us to make Facebook and Twitter work better together for those times when they want to share their content as widely as possible. We agree. Over the next few days, we will be releasing a feature that allows administrators of Facebook Pages to publish their Facebook updates to their Twitter accounts automatically. This will only link Facebook Pages to Twitter, not your individual profile.

Public figures, musicians, businesses and organizations of all types who've created Facebook Pages often want to share a status update, a photo or an event with as many of their supporters as possible. Celebrities may want to share personal news or charities may want to put out calls for help to both their Facebook fans and their Twitter followers, all at the same time.

If you manage a Facebook Page, you now will be able to decide whether to share updates with their Twitter followers, and you also will be able to control what type of updates to share: status updates, links, photos, notes, events or all of them. If you have multiple Pages, you will have the option to link each of those Pages to different Twitter accounts. This new feature will soon be available at http://www.facebook.com/twitter.



A number of celebrities and organizations on Facebook are already using this feature to publish the content on their Facebook Page to Twitter and reach a wider audience. They include Dane Cook, LIVESTRONG, The World Wildlife Fund, and the NBA, WNBA and D-League.

We are always looking to make it easy for you to use Facebook with your favorite websites and applications. Facebook Connect allows you to bring your Facebook profile with you across the Web. We recently worked with Yahoo to integrate your Facebook experience into Yahoo's new homepage; we've built our own Firefox and iPhone applications in-house; and we built tools to help you bring your content from YouTube, Hulu and other sites into your Facebook profile.

Twitter was a natural next step to link with Facebook Pages because it is a powerful tool for broadcasting short messages widely.

I was able to build this new feature from start to finish as a summer engineering intern. Next month I'll head back to school, but I'm excited to see my work here live on through all of the people who now will both share on Facebook and tweet on Twitter right from their Facebook Pages.

Let us know if there are other websites you'd like to work better with Facebook. Who knows? Maybe I'll be able to build it when I return next summer.



5 Secrets about your Facebook profile

Facebook generates the maximum content on any given day on internet. Facebook is the current trending superstar on web. An average user spends more than seven hours per month on Facebook. In such an situation, it is necessary to know little more than what is required about Facebook. In this session i have given 5 tips that would help you use Facebook more efficiently.

#Your Facebook Wall shows only selected updates:

Yes your Facebook Wall only shows updates from people with whom you interact often. The same is the case with Facebook Fan Pages. You are likely to miss many updates which might be essential for you. This problem can be solved by making a small settings change.
  • Scroll to the bottom of your wall
  • Click the ‘Edit Options’ on the bottom-right
  • Edit the option ‘Show posts from’
  • Change it from ‘Friends and Pages that you interact with the most’ to ‘All your friends and pages’.Save the settings




#Your updates are sent to unknown people

When an unknown person sends you a friend request, you should either accept it or reject it. When you ignore a friend request and put it in a pending status, that person is likely to get few of your updates if he had any mutual friend. Let me tell you how?.Few things are available only to your friends and few for your friends and networks, which means to the people having mutual friends.
For example: if the things you post- like status, wall photos, links, videos have the setting ‘Friends and Network’, then the person who sent you a request will get updates from you. Moreover Facebook is cunning, it will show your new relations on his wall like this
‘Dharmesh is now friends with Robin and 11 other people’
which literally means
‘Dharmesh is now friends with Robin and 11 other people but has ignored your request screw him: P’.
So don’t forget ,either accept or reject do not neglect.

#Your Facebook account login information can be tracked

Lets say i have a lot of people who are jealous of my Facebook girl friends and they are tracking me 24*7 to know my password and hack my account. So I should stay more cautious then normal. But I’m least bothered about it because when ever someone logs into my Facebook Account other than my computer/laptop i would get a message to my mobile saying that “XXXXX” has logged into you Facebook account. Where “XXXXX” is the name of the computer from which the account is accessed. You can also activate this setting from these steps
  • Account-> Account Setting -> Account Security-change
  • Under the Login Notification check the option ‘Send me a message’ and ‘Send
  • me an Email’ and save the settings




#You can logout from any system and every system

Ok now i get the notification on my mobile about the login information, what steps can i take to prevent his/her current login session? Facebook gives an option of Remote Log Out. Follow these steps
  • Account-> Account Setting -> Account Security-change
  • Under the account activity you would find a section called “Also Active” which shows the all other sessions that are currently active.
  • You can click the End Activity of the SYSTEM which was mentioned your mobile message notification and the unknown persons session would get expired and he will be logged out automatically

#You Friend list can be hidden

Its a common curiosity to explore others friends list and see who are there in it. But sometimes it is disgusting when others explore your friends list. So here is one way to stop that. You can hide your friend list from your friends too or you can make it visible to particular customized list. Follow these steps
  • Account->Privacy Setting
  • Under the connecting to Facebook heading click the ‘View Settings’
In the setting page look for the option ‘See your friend list’ and change the default setting from ‘Friends of Friends’ to customize and you will see this  pop up

In the pop up under the section ‘make visible to’ select ‘only me’ and save the settings. If you had restrict to a customized list then select ‘specify people’ and start typing your list name.

How to Back Up Your Facebook Account

With the growth of Facebook, now almost every person who has access to internet wants to use this great social networking website. With over 800 Million users, Facebook has made it a place where a lot of sharing would happen. Photos, personal info, etc. With the hacking attacks increasing day by day, your account and your details may be in danger. Every day thousands of Facebook account are hacked or compromised and losing your complete Facebook timeline is a nightmare for anyone who is addicted to Facebook.
These days most of social networking sites like Facebook, Google+ offers data export settings. This means, even if your account is deleted or you lose your account access for some reasons, you have the back of your complete social networking profile.
Few months back, Facebook added a new feature call Account archive which will let you download a back up copy of all important Facebook data. When you use Facebook backup feature, you would be able to take back up of:
  • All your Facebook profile photos and Videos
  • Your Wallposts, messages and Facebook chat history
  • Your friend’s name and Emails (Email export depends upon their privacy settings)
If you have not taken any backup of your Facebook profile till now, I would suggest you to read the complete guide on Facebook backup here and take a backup of your account. Also, if you are regular Facebook user, you can add it into your monthly to-do list and take backup at the end of every month.

Step by step guide to back up Facebook Account:

1. Log on to your Facebook account.
2. Click on the arrow on the top right and click on “Account Settings”.
3. Now scroll to the end of the page and click on “Download a copy of your Facebook data”.
download a copy

4. Click on “Start My Archive”.
fb backup
Now, you will have to give some time to Facebook to create your archive. After the archive is completed, you may be informed on Facebook or you can directly visit the page again.

5. If your archive has been created, enter the password and download the archive.
download backup

Backing up your Facebook data gives you all the photos and videos you have uploaded. Your wall posts, chat messages and other messages are also included. The name of all your friends with their email addresses(if allowed by them in their privacy settings) is included.
It takes around an hour for Facebook to archive your data (in my case also it took around 1 hour). You may not get informed by email even though Facebook says it (Also,I never receive an Email after backup completion). In the end, data export is a very useful feature offered by Facebook and specially when Facebook timeline profile will be globally launched, people will be able to create a complete timeline of their life, I’m sure this backup feature will be more handy.

Different Ways to Monetize Your Blog

When you start off in the blogging game some people get drawn into just one revenue stream for their blog and this can be a great shame because there are so many different ways to make money through a blog. If you get trapped into just one revenue stream online then what happens if something happens to that or if it starts loosing popularity, where will you turn then? Having more than one income stream is a good idea just to give you a bit of financial security from your blog and giving you the ability to move on quickly if one part of your blog sees a downturn of business.


Method 1 – Adsense
I mention Adsense first because it is one of the best known advertisers on the internet as well as being a good source of income for any website or blog. The way that this income stream works is that you put some Adsense adverts up on your site and then every time one of your visitors clicks on one of those adverts then you get a payment from Google into your Adsense account. Now depending on what niche you are in any one of these clicks can give you any money between a few pennies and about £10. It is fair to say though that £10 is extremely. Google does not allow you to show your Adsense earnings anywhere on the internet which is an interesting thing to note. Also this ties in to my point about not getting to involved in just one revenue stream. If you have a free blogger blog and are running off just Adsense then your who business is working through Google and if they decide that they don’t like you then that’s your whole business gone in a flash.

Method 2 – Affiliate Marketing
In case you aren’t familiar with what affiliate marketing is it is the process of you advertising someone else’s product for them and if you get a sale for the owner then you get a good percentage of the sale, usually between 50% and 75%. There are a few ways that you can use affiliate marketing as a source of income on your blog. Firstly you can simply put picture or text adverts up in your sidebar so that people can click on them that way. Or alternatively you can slip an affiliate link to a product that you would like to recommend into one of your posts. This way of putting affiliate links in usually gets you more clicks in a short time but it can annoy some readers if you keep reviewing products and trying to blatantly get money off of them instead of just writing good helpful content.

Method 3 – List Building
This income stream might not technically be directly involved with blogging but blogging can certainly help with this. If you have a sign-up box for your mailing list on your blog then you can have lots of organic sign ups from targeted traffic. The advantage of a mailing list is that you know that the people you are emailing have an interest in the products that you are selling because they have already expressed an interest when they signed up. This makes for much better conversions on your sales efforts. This also leads on to another avenue for making money. As an incentive many people offer an ebook to encourage people to sign up to a mailing list and in this ebook you could put some affiliate links so that you get the best chance to carry on selling in the back end of your list.

Method 4 – Blog Sponsors
Once you feel your blog has grown a little bit and you  have a nice amount of traffic then you can start to think about offering advertising space on your blog to private advertisers. In this way you have a more stable form of income and you have more control over where your income comes from. Once your blog gets a good amount of traffic people will come to you for advertising space so you won’t even need to promote it very much.

Method 5 – Writing Reviews For a Fee
This is another method for blogs which have got a good amount of traffic already and it involves charging people to write a review or put up a review that they have written for one of their products. There are a few ethical issues with this income stream such as you may start to take the money to advertise products that you don’t have a good belief in. This can start to degrade the quality of your blog if you aren’t careful. But if you don’t take on to many of these jobs and only pick products that you believe are actually of some use then they can be an asset. There are a lot of people out there looking for useful products and if you show it to them then they will remember you for that.


There are of course many other ways you can monetize but I believe these are the best options and there is a range here that you can start to use at different stages of your blogs growth.

5 Ways To Make Money With Blogging

Make Money With Affiliate
This is also a way to make money from your website. This is same as advertising in your site. But there are some differences. Here your advertisers will not pay you. You will get money for each click or sign ups. There are many affiliate programs available in internet world like EBay affiliates, Amazon, ClickBanks, etc… These are product selling websites. Here you will get commissions for each sales. There are also other websites like hosting providers like Hostgator these can give you money for each sign ups for web hosting.

So for if you have plan to make money with your website then start working on it with fresh and unique contents. Also promote your website by building links, comment on on other blogs, etc…

10 Tips to Sell Your Website or Blog on flippa.com

If you are planning to buy or sell a website, you probably already heard about flippa.com. It’s the largest online marketplace for websites. Most people who list a website for sale there, however, end up selling it for peanuts (e.g., $100), or not selling at all.
How come? Most of the times the seller didn’t do his homework. If you want to maximize your chances of selling (and your profit), the 10 tips below will help you.



1. Make Sure Your Website Is Making Money
This is the most important factor. If you want to sell a website successfully, it must be making money. Even if your site has a huge traffic, listing it before monetizing that traffic would be a bad decision. You would be able to sell it, but the money you would get would be far below the real value of the site.
If your website is making $50 or less per month, forget about selling it now. Try to improve your traffic, increase your revenues to at least $300 per month, make the revenues stable, and then list it. If the $300 are coming from Google AdSense, for example, you could sell the site for as much as $10,000. Obviously, the more you can grow your revenue before selling, the better. The $300 is just a ball park figure.
Remember that you’ll need to show proof of revenue, and that most buyers will calculate the revenues as the average of the past four or six months. 

2. Make Sure You Have Google Analytics Data
Most serious buyers will want to see your Google Analytics data before making an official offer. They will use this to verify your traffic levels, and to make sure the pattern is compatible with the revenues you are claiming.
Again, people will want to see data going back to six months at least. If you are planning to sell your website, therefore, it would be wise to install Google Analytics on it at least six months before the sale. 

3. Work On Your Trust Rating
Each member on Flippa has a trust rating, and most buyers will check it before placing their bids. In other words, the higher your trust rating, the higher the chances of selling your website.
As a result you should take all the actions that will improve your trust rating (e.g., connect your Flippa account with Facebook and LinkedIn, verify your phone number and so on). 

4. Set The Auction Length for 7 Days
In my opinion seven days is the optimal length for an auction on Flippa. With that length of time you are sure that most buyers will see your auction (e.g., those who log during the week and those who log during weekends), yet you’ll create a sense of urgency on those who are interested.
Many people set the auction length for 30 days, and their auctions become dead as a consequence. Many interested buyers will refrain from bidding because there is plenty of time to go, others yet will see the auction once and then completely forget about it, for the same reason. 

5. Set A Low Reserve / High Minimum Bid
If you set a low reserve price your auction will display the following message: “Bidding open and reserve has been met!” bright green color. This is a big encouragement for potential buyers, and it stimulates them to bid.
And don’t worry about the site selling for less than what you think it is worth. You can always set a high minimum bid. Apart from protecting you from low bids this strategy will also filter the non-serious buyers out. 

6. Set A Reasonable BIN Price
The “Buy It Now” price is there for a reason. It should allow a buyer who is very interested in your website to avoid a bidding war and to buy the website paying what you think it is worth.
The problem is that most sellers have an unrealistic idea about the value of their websites, and hence they set crazy BIN prices. This is a put off for potential buyers, because it signals you have no idea about what you are doing.
Ask some friends what they think your website is worth, and then set a reasonable BIN price for it. 

7. Don’t Hype Your Description
The more hype you put in your description, the more people will think you are desperate to sell and that your website is not a solid one. Examples of remarks you should avoid include: “Huge potential!”, “A lifetime opportunity!”, “My loss is your gain!”.
Secondly, don’t hypothesize what the website could be earning. Some people list websites that are making $10 per month currently, and they go on saying: “This website has the potential to make $4,000 per month easily!”. If you knew this for sure you wouldn’t be selling the site for such a low price….

8. Answer to Every Comment
Even if you write a crystal clear description people will still have questions, and they’ll ask them through the comment section. It is important to answer to every single comment, as this will not only encourage these commenters to place a bid, but it will also improve the overall credibility of your auction.
Second, do not delete a comment unless you have a very good reason to do so. Deleted comments are red flags on Flippa, because usually they come from sellers trying to hide something on their websites. 

9. Have A Plausible Reason for Selling
One of the first things people will ask you is why you are selling. If there is no plausible reason, they’ll rightly assume that the website is going down hill, and that you want to get rid of it before it becomes worthless.
In fact it would be a good idea to include the reason for selling the description of the auction itself. 

10. Invite Qualified Buyers
If you want to get more bids on your auction, you can invite qualified buyers directly. First of all browse through the marketplace looking for websites that are similar to yours (either open or won auctions).
Once you find one, browse through the comments, and try to find users with a high trust rating that were asking questions about the auction. These are qualified buyers, and you can send them a message inviting them to view your own auction.

You can purchase this upgrade a second time, too, once your auction slipped to the second page. This would be a good idea if after the first two or three days you have still not received some qualified bids.

5 Tips to keep yourself Safe and Secure While Surfing Internet


The main reason for making you aware about these anti-virus softwares was to make your online surfing secure. But just downloading Anti-virus software on your system is not enough, you need to secure your system by other threats which can easily hack your personal details or confidential documents from your system. If you are connected to internet, there are chances that you might face hacking problem.

Here are 5 tips to surf online stuffs carefully and keep your system safe when connected to internet :



Avoid using same passwords
Many of us have habit to choose same passwords for all our social media, email or bank accounts. The reason for choosing same password is that it becomes easy to remember for all our important accounts. But this habit can create a big problem for you if any one of the sites is compromised then hackers can easily find password of another account, if they are same. Try to use different passwords or you can do a bit variation in all the passwords which will make you easy to remember.

Download from secure websites
There are hundreds of websites available online which provides you free softwares but when you choose to download these free softwares from unreliable websites there are changes that these software may detect all your personal information because they are loaded with spywares. I won’t say that you should never download free software but I would suggest that you must only download after reviews and checking the security certificate.

Avoid clicking on unknown links
We all got spam emails or unknown emails which directs us with some internal links to their website. Avoid clicking on these kinds of links which might spread virus on your computer and might hack all your accounts and passwords. These days shortened URL are used to spread links for websites/blogs but only click on links which you got from reliable resources.

Anti-virus Software
This is most important thing to remember. It is not enough to download good Anti-virus software to your system, more important is to keep it updating and keep in “ON”. Always follows alerts sent by your Anti-virus software companies. Many Anti-viruses has option to update the new version automatically, you should enable that option to make your system more secure.

Online Shopping
Online Shopping is very risky when it comes to security. Many online shopping ask to enter your address, account details and other personal details which can be easily hacked by others. Try to do online shopping on reliable websites and never ever give your personal details.

Security is always important for our blogs. How you secure your system from hackers? Do share with me.
