Clicksor Ads Review

Here is our Clicksor review. Clicksor is a contextual ad network. This means that it uses certain keywords and phrases that are in the body text of your webpage to determine which ads display. Clicksor offer some unique ad types with numerous sizes available which some ad networks do not provide, making them attractive to publishers as an adsense alternative.

Clicksor in action

Clicksor offers five different ad types to publishers to include on their website or blog. The first is perhaps the most unintrusive to visitors as it does not actually appear on the webpage at all.

PayPerView

clicksor pop undersFor those with a decent amount of traffic coming from search engines who are struggling getting visitors to click ads then Clicksor’s pay per view pop-under ads might just be the ads for you. When a visitor lands on your site, an ad will pop up underneath your page, invisible to the visitor. The visitor will not see the ad until the moment they close their browser.

clicksor interstitialThe Interstitial ads operate in a similar way as they also take up no ad space and are pay per view. The difference being that they appear as visitors are browsing between the pages of your site. You have control over the frequency at which the ads display to suit your preferred level of visitor experience.

PayPerClick
clicksor text linksClicksor is pretty transparent when it comes to sharing the average PPC in which their current publishers achieve. We have found their PPC rates for the intext and banner ads are generally lower than that found on other ad networks, but with their unique ad sizes you can achieve a higher click through rate by being creative with where you place the ads.

Many people using the internet today are seeing google-like adverts

on most webpages which have been inserted in the same areas of the screen. By having slightly different ad sizes than usual and in interesting places across your site, a high click through rate can be achieved.

Clicksor Review

Clicksor review websites very quickly and approval is pretty much immediate. They do allow you to have ads from other networks on the same page as long as you only have a maximum of three ad units from Clicksor. If you are going to use more than one ad network on the same page, we believe the PopUnder would be the best option as it would be the most non-intrusive and it will not lower your current earnings or click through rates.

Also if you are using a 3rd party ad network and choose to use the Intext or banner ads from clicksor along side, please ensure that the ads do not look the same as this could infringe on some of the 3rd parties terms and conditions and could result in a loss of all your earnings from them.

Getting started with Clicksor

Clicksor is very easy to install. They offer a plugin for WordPress, Blogger, Drupal and Joomla. There is also the option to place the code inside your site yourself, preferably in the header or footer. This option can be slightly confusing to do, as you must go through each ad type separately and it is not immediately obvious how to select the ads you want. Basically, for the ads you do not wish to display simply click the “skip this ad” at the bottom and for the ads you wish to display click “save and continue”. It will generate the code for you at the end then its just a case of copying and pasting.

Bidvertiser Ads Review!

Bidvertiser is a pay per click company and was launched in 2003 by Bpath; Ltd. Bidvertiser's business model is to auction your ad space to advertisers and sell it to the highest bidder strictly based on PPC. They even pay you $20 for just registering as a publisher or as an advertiser.

Joining with Bidvertiser

Joining Bidvertiser as a publisher or advertiser is not difficult. Bidvertiser does not require your site to have certain minimum impressions per month or year, and their Ads are based on CPC. You don’t need to send the signed W9 or W8BEN tax forms as part of registration.You will get an instant approval in most cases.

However, there is a manual review of websites for the joining process to be completed and this is in order to reject websites, which do not comply with the Bidvertiser requirements. If you want to be a publisher with Bidvertiser, you may join with the link on the top right. If you want to advertise your website with Bidvertiser, you may use the bottom right banner.

Bidvertiser Review

Bidvertiser Conversion bonus

Apart from the CPC value for each valid click, Bidvertiser has a conversion bonus if any of your clicks turn to valid leads. Leads occur when somebody fills up a contact form with their valid phone number and address. Like a form filled up for insurance or advanced pay loan.

Bidvertiser Revenue Generating Tool Bar

Second great feature offered by Bidvertiser is the customized toolbar. This revenue generating BidVertiser toolbar allows you to distribute your own customized toolbar to your website visitors and then earn money when your users use the toolbar for searching. The toolbar is fully customizable allowing you to add your logo, links to your home page other tools and different widgets.

The most-recent addition which was introduced at the end of 2011 is the slider ad. Slider Ads are ads that slide up from the bottom of the screen and are displayed up on top of the page. This ad format is very popular, and it generates extremely high revenues. Slider Ads by default appear only once per 24 hours per user, are completely non-intrusive and have a small close button above them.

Bidvertiser Control Panel

Bidvertiser has a wide range of formats, which includes 728x90 Leaderboard, 468x60 Banner, 234x60 Half Banner, 120x240 Vertical Banner, 160x600 Skyscraper, 120x600 Skyscraper, 300x600 Half page, 300x250 Rectangle, 336x280 Large rectangle, 180x150 Rectangle, 240x400 Vertical rectangle and 125x125 Button.

What is different about Bidvertiser format is what is called by Bidvertiser as free design. This allows you to specify the length and width of the ad. You can specify your own dimensions with a set minimum of 120x60.

Publishers who need to modify the color or size of a bidvertsier ad do not need to update their site with the new modified code. Just edit the ad code in the Bidvertiser control panel and Bidvertiser control panel automatically takes care of the rest. This feature was only recently introduced in adsense.

You have the option of specifying geographical areas where you want the ads to be shown up.

Referral Program

Bidvertiser also has a referral program. Bidvertiser pays you as follows for your referrals. Through your referral link when an advertiser sign up and first spends $10, your account will be credited $5. When that same advertiser spends $50, an additional $20 will be credited.

Through yor referral link when a publisher sign up and first earns $10, your account will be credited $10. When that same publisher earns $50, an additional $40 will be credited.

Other Features

Bidvertiser sells your ad space to the highest bidders among advertisers. We were surprised to find many advertisers with max eCPM bids of 1$ for one of our websites in niche area of music, whereas we were not able to sell the same ad space for 0.25$ through Adbrite, which has a very large advertiser base. Their ads nowadays are more context sensitive than it was before.

Conclusion

Bidvertiser stands out among ad networks in different areas like ad customization, and the high bids that they attain with their advertisers for selling ad space. However, their most remarkable feature is their payment option. Both the frequency of payments and the low payout at 10$.

Bidvertiser has to rectify many complaints about ad impressions and/or clicks not being counted after some days of going smooth. Still it is a nice company and among the top choices as an adsense alternative. Click Bidvertiser to open a no obligation pubslisher account.

Positives

    #Sign up process is painless and Bidvertiser review your site with instant account approval
    #Easy installation that requires an HTML code to be added to your webpages
    #Ads will instantly apear once code is added to your site, once this happens advertisers will be   able to start bidding to advertise with you
    #It is easy to change the appearance of the ads with a point and click tool
    #The toolbar can be altered in appearance to work with the look of your site

Negatives

    #Not very high pay out rates per click (this might only be the case with our chosen niches)
    #Ads aren’t always relevant to the content if you are targeting a small niche
    #Reporting within the Bidvertiser site is quite basic and doesn’t give a lot of information on number of impressions or on click through rates

Bidvertiser Vs Adsense

Bidvertiser can be used in conjunction with Adsense, some of the Bidvertiser ads do look similar to Adsense but you can customise these ads to amend that. Bidvertiser offer you the opportunity to bring in a decent income with the toolbar but generally have a lower pay out rate than Adsense for PPC. Although this is meant to increase with time the longer you stay with them – we haven’t noticed this yet.

Bidvertiser Payout Amount

Bidvertiser pays you on a net-15 basis or every 15 days. They have one of the lowest payouts in the industry at $10 which is through paypal. If you want to get paid by check, the minimum payout is $100.

Earnings are tracked in a very clunky reporting system that ideally needs to provide more information.

Signing up for Bidvertiser

Signing up is easy. The sign up form is straight forward and your account is approved immediately. You will receive an activation email and instructions on where to find the HTML code so you can start showing ads on your site immediately. Bidvertiser also has a blog that regularly updates you with new features.

Bidvertiser Support

Support is one of the prime factors when any company is reviewed. Whenever Bidvertiser was contacted through the e-mail, their response was quick. However, they mostly mailed a one liner which did not resolve the problem. Their support is definitely not as good as Adbrite or Chitika.

HTC Android Smartphones and Tablets!

A Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer, HTC has produced a large number of Android phones including the Droid Incredible, HTC Sensation and HTC Evo, as well as Android tablets like the HTC Flyer and HTC Jetstream.

In addition to manufacturing handsets and tablets, HTC customizes the Android operating system on their devices by using their HTC Sense user interface.

HTC was the first company to build a Nexus device. Released on January 5, 2010, the Nexus One was a flagship Google phone that utilized a version of Android that was not loaded with the HTC's Sense interface.

HISTORY

HTC was founded in 1997 by Cher Wang, HT Cho, and Peter Chou. Initially a manufacturer of notebook computers, HTC began designing some of the world's first touch and wireless hand-held devices in 1998. The company has a rich heritage of many "firsts", including creating the first Microsoft-powered smartphone (2002) and the first Microsoft 3G phone (2005). Their first major product was made in 2000 and was one of the world's first touch screen smartphones. The Palm Treo 650 and the iPAQ were created by HTC. They started producing 3G-capable phones in early 2005 and made the world's first Android phone in 2008, the HTC Dream (also marketed as the T-Mobile G1). It was first released in the United States for pre-order through T-Mobile USA on September 23, 2008, and became available in U.S. T-Mobile stores on October 22, 2008.The G1 was available in the UK several days after its USA launch, and has since been introduced in many countries including Australia and Singapore. In 2009, the company launched the HTC Sense interface for the platform with the HTC Hero.
In March 2010, Apple Inc. filed a complaint with the US International Trade Commission claiming infringement of 20 of its patents covering aspects of the iPhone user interface and hardware. HTC disagreed with Apple's actions and reiterated its commitment to creating innovative smartphones.HTC also filed a complaint against Apple for infringing on 5 of its patents and sought to ban Apple products imported into the US from manufacturing facilities in Asia. Apple expanded its original complaint by adding two more patents.

In June 2010, the company launched the HTC Evo 4G, the first 4G-capable phone in the United States.In July 2010, HTC announced it would begin selling smartphones in China under its own brand name in a partnership with China Mobile. In 2010, HTC sold over 24.6 million handsets, up 111% over 2009.

HTC was named the "Device Manufacturer of the Year" for 2011 by the GSMA at the Mobile World Congress on 16 February 2011. In April 2011, the company's market value surpassed that of Nokia to become the third largest smartphone maker in the world, behind only Apple and Samsung.

On July 6, 2011 it was announced that HTC would buy VIA Technologies' stake in S3 Graphics, thus becoming the majority owner of S3. On August 6 2011, HTC acquired Dashwire for $18.5M. In August 2011, HTC confirmed that HTC will be entering a strategic partnership with Beats Electronics by acquiring 51 percent of Beat's shares.

In the 2011 Best Global Brands rankings released by Interbrand, HTC was listed at #98 and valued at $3.6 billion.
Based on researcher Canalys, in Q3 2011 HTC Corporation became the largest smartphone vendor in the U.S. by 24 percent, ahead of Samsung's 21 percent, Apple by 20 percent and Blackberry just 9 percent. HTC Corporation made different models for each operator.

10 Ways to Keep Hard Drives from Failing!

Takeaway: with a little proactive care, you can extend hard drive life, squeezing more value from your company’s equipment investments, reducing user downtime, and preventing catastrophic loss of data.

Hardware prices have dropped considerably over the last decade, but it’s irresponsible not to care for the hardware installed on machines. This is especially true for hard drives. Hard drives are precious commodities that hold the data employees use to do their jobs, so they should be given the best of care. Inevitably, those drives will die. But you can take steps to prevent a premature hard disk death. Let’s examine 10 such steps to care for the health of your drives.

1,Run chkdsk

Hard disks are eventually going to contain errors. These errors can come in the shape of physical problems, software issues, partition table issues, and more. The Windows chkdsk program will attempt to handle any problems, such as bad sectors, lost clusters, cross-linked files, and/or directory errors. These errors can quickly lead to an unbootable drive, which will lead to downtime for the end user. The best way I have found to take advantage of chkdsk is to have it run at next boot with the command chkdsk X: /f where X is the drive you want to check. This command will inform you the disk is locked and will ask you if you want to run chkdsk the next time the system restarts. Select Y to allow this action.

2,Add a monitor

Plenty of applications out there will monitor the health of your drives. These monitors offer a host of features that run the gamut. In my opinion, one of the best choices is the Acronis Drive Monitor, a free tool that will monitor everything from hard drive temperature to percentage of free space (and everything in between). ADM can be set up to send out email alerts if something is amiss on the drive being monitored. Getting these alerts is a simple way to remain proactive in the fight against drive failure.

3,Separate OS install from user data

With the Linux operating system, I almost always separate the user’s home directories (~/) from the OS installation onto different drives. Doing this ensures the drive the OS is installed upon will enjoy less reading/writing because so much of the I/O will happen on the user’s home drive. Doing this will easily extend the life of the drive the OS is installed on, as well as allow you to transfer the user data easily should an OS drive fail.

4,Be careful about the surrounding environment

Although this seems like it should go without saying, it often doesn’t. On a daily basis, I see PCs stuck in tiny cabinets with zero circulation. Obviously, those machines always run hot, thus shortening the lifespan of the internal components. Instead of shoving those machines into tight, unventilated spaces, give them plenty of breathing room. If you must cram a machine into a tight space, at least give it ventilation and even add a fan to pull out that stale, warm air generated by the PC. There’s a reason why so much time and money have gone into PC cooling and why we have things like liquid cooling and powerful cooling systems for data centers.

5,Watch out for static

Here’s another issue that should go without saying. Static electricity is the enemy of computer components. When you handle them, make sure you ground yourself first. This is especially true in the winter months or in areas of drier air. If you seem to get shocked every time you touch something, that’s a good sign that you must use extra caution when handling those drives. This also goes for where you set those drives down. I have actually witnessed users placing drives on stereo speakers, TVs, and other appliances/devices that can give off an electromagnetic wave. Granted, most of these appliances have magnets that are not strong enough to erase a drive. But it’s a chance no one should take.

6,Defragment that drive

A fragmented drive is a drive being pushed to work harder than it should. All hard drives should be used in their most efficient states to avoid excess wear and tear. This includes defragmenting. To be on the safe side, set your PC(s) to automatically defrag on a weekly basis. This works to extend the life of your drive by keeping the file structure more compact, so the read heads are not moving as much or as often.

7,Go with a solid state drive

Solid state drives are, for all intents and purposes, just large flash drives, so they have no moving parts. Without moving parts, the life of the drive (as a whole) is naturally going to be longer than it would if the drive included read heads, platters, and bearings. Although these drives will cost more up front, they will save you money in the long run by offering a longer lifespan. That means less likelihood of drive failure, which will cause downtime as data is recovered and transferred.

8,Take advantage of power save

On nearly every OS, you can configure your hard drive to spin down after a given time. In some older iterations of operating systems, drives would spin 24/7 — which would drastically reduce the lifespan of a drive. By default, Windows 7 uses the Balanced Power Savings plan, which will turn off the hard drive after 20 minutes of inactivity. Even if you change that by a few minutes, you are adding life to your hard drive. Just make sure you don’t shrink that number to the point where your drive is going to sleep frequently throughout the day. If you are prone to take five- to 10-minute breaks often, consider lowering that time to no less than 15 minutes. When the drive goes to sleep, the drive is not spinning. When the drive is not spinning, entropy is not working on that drive as quickly.

9,Tighten those screws

Loose mounting screws (which secure the hard drive to the PC chassis) can cause excessive vibrations. Those vibrations can damage to the platters of a standard hard disk. If you hear vibrations coming from within your PC, open it and make sure the screws securing the drive to the mounting platform are tight. If they aren’t, tighten them. Keeping your hardware nice and tight will help extend the life of that hardware.

10,Back up

Eventually, that drive will fail. No matter how careful you are, no matter how many steps you take to prevent failure, the drive will, in the end, die a painful death. If you have solid backups, at least the transition from one drive to another will be painless. And by using a backup solution such as Acronis Universal Restore, you can transfer a machine image from one piece of hardware to another piece of hardware with very little issue.

Other suggestions?

Have you found any of the above steps to be especially helpful in extending the life of a hard drive? What other form of wisdom or magic keeps those disks from failing prematurely? Is there a brand you have found that lasts longer than others? Share your experiences with your fellow Aps Logo readers.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Auto-Correct Fix Using Jelly Bean Keyboard!

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is a beautifully crafted smartphone and for the most part buyers have been pleased with Samsung’s new focus on software that can be used to interact with everyday life.

One area of concern for many users however has been the company’s implementation of auto-correct standards.

As a user types using the Galaxy S4 they are met with word suggestions that can break the flow of the users typing. On standard Google Android 4.2 Jelly Bean devices the auto-correct function is more well rounded and doesn’t affect the flow of a users typing.

Not happy about the current state of Samsung Galaxy S4 auto-correct a third-party developer is offering a way to receive better auto-correct support.

Android developer VLLWP has ported the Jelly Bean keyboard to the Galaxy S4 along with several improvements to the original design.

While there are various keyboard alternatives via the Google Play store the Jelly Bean Keyboard is free and offers the type of keyboard functionality we have come to expect from the stock version of Google Android Jelly Bean.

The keyboard features ads but only on the settings page. It also features various languages support, offers emoji icons, providers users with themes support and dives into advanced settings.

If you want even more out of your keyboard you can purchase the “Pro” version of the app which features no ads, more themes, better customization, more layout options, and gesture support.

Users can even add a row of numbers to the standard keyboard layout, a feature that is sorely missing on the Samsung Galaxy S4 Keyboard.

The Jelly Bean Keyboard Pro is modestly priced at $2.99.

Give the free version of the Jelly Bean Keyboard app a try and let us know what you think about the smartphone app.
