OK Fellas, now that Balkhis is launched and doing well with subscribers I am going to start some of the traditions. I will be putting out options for free promotion at Balkhis for your product on two days. Tip Sunday and Mega Wednesday. I write a blog post about your product. Now here are the following things you need to do to get the free promotion at balkhis.

You need to send a gift to me with a tag from your Company, or the product you want to promote. It can be a T-Shirt, a Cap, or some other object. I need to be able to physically hold it and take pictures to write about you. So if it is a shirt then i will wear it and take pictures and write a few words about your product.

Samsung is releasing two Android Based phones in the year of 2008. One is due by Sepetember and the other one will be due by Christmas. The interesting thing is that these phones will not have Samsung Logos instead they will have Google Logos as they will be going under the category of GPhone. These phones have a similar look to Blackberry Pearl. One is going to be affordable that will be released after the holidays. Claimed to be $100 wheras the one released on September will be the upper touch phone.

The coolest part is that this phone have a QWERTY Keyboard so good for texting. What i still don’t know is whether this releas will be for all service providers or will this be another iPhone type one service provider exclusive contract.

*This was one of the question i recieved through the email and therefore i have decided to write the post in the starters section.

then you will turn your users down, and you will loose your bragging rights when the next month you see less visitors.

Evaluating the ads

Now when i say ads, it can be ads from Adbrite, Bidvertiser, or Private Ads … you must evaluate them. See whether they are related to your content. Suppose you own a webmaster blog, and some one wants a casino link from your website. They are willing to offer you $500 / month. Should you take it? Well atleast i wouldn’t take it because it is not related to my website. If you have a casino related website then sure you should take it, but my website is not, so i would not take it. Now i said in the last post always Under Promise and Over Deliver. So if you promise to your users that your site will be Family Friendly, you should not post any adult site. Any Casino site. Any Warez site. Any site that is not family friendly. If you never put that on your website, then you have nothing to be afraid of, but Warez sites are a big no from my side followed by Porn and Casino.

What can you do to fix the ads?

Ahh…. You would have to read more in the post.

Raelyn Campbell purchases a laptop at a local Best Buy store in 2006. She was convinced by the salesman to purchase a 3 year extended warranty on her laptop. In result she ended up paying more than $1100 for her laptop. She was thinking that she got a fortunate deal as now she have warranty on her product. What she didn’t know was that this could be the fortune cookie she is about to eat.

To make up for their mistakes, they tried to offer her $900 in gift card as a courtesy, but she countered it and demanded $2100. Best Buy ignored her terms and moved on, but Campbell was not ready to move on. She found out that her personal data in the laptop maybe in danger and she is in risk of identity theft. She went ahead and talked to her lawyers and filed a $54 Million Law Suit Case against Best Buy. HOLY Crap !!

Now you might be thinking had Best Buy gave her that $2100 she would’ve left them alone. Well Best Buy is now trying to negotiate the deal with $4100 if she drops the case. Now who in the world would drop the case of $54 Million for $4100. Are you crazy. These people deserve this. When the knife is pointed toward them, they are ready to make the deal, but before when the situation was reversed they didn’t care about customer service.

Well Could this be the Best Buy of her life ??
