Was the facebook boycott any good?

I’m back people and as I mentioned before, I would post on whether the facebook boycott went successful or at least according to what was planned. The main aim behind the boycott was the removal of those offensive pages, which went successful.
Other than that, the boycott was to come from a whole community rather than separated individuals. I’m not sure whether facebook was banned in other muslim countries or not but a big chunk of the muslim community took the initiative of not using facebook that day.
The biggest part of those who boycotted were pakistani muslims. The problem is that there isn’t really a way to check what happened to facebook in those 10 days (from 20th May to 30th May). Any inferences made from analytics programs like Alexa would be inaccurate.
However, considering that alexa is yet the only better check which can give us something on the least. As compared to compete or other open analytics programs. So, considering whatever proportion of muslims that use Alexa, below is the analysis.
Alexa has a small user  base as compared to the general internet population which would make the results extremely biased to the activities of that little ‘population’ of alexa toolbar users. When measuring things on a large scale, we do take random samples however this isn’t random either.
Most alexa users are avid internet users, people who are web 2.0 enthusiasts or webmasters and bloggers. If assumed that this is true, then we can directly deduce that  there are much (much) more webmasters and technology enthusiasts in the world west  (or east) of developing countries like Pakistan and other muslim countries.
Below is the demographic taken directly from alexa showing the distribution of it’s users over countries:

Hence, considering the data provided by alexa we cannot make a very justifiable conclusion. However, just for the sake of curiosity, we’ll put the data to use. So here it is:

• 0.9% of facebook’s users are pakistanis
• Facebook has over 400 million users *
• Therefore, there are 3.6 million pakistani facebook users (taking the minimum of total facebook users)
• 50% of facebook users login everyday (1.8 million users in pakistan’s case) *
• 1.8 million logins a day multiplied by 10 days, 18 million logins (the boycott lasted 10 days)
• Average pageviews per person on facebook are 13.46 (13.46 x 18 million = 242.28 million) **
• Assumed eCPM $1 (no data available on this)
• Therefore, $1 x 242,280,000 x 0.001 = $242,280

* = Source: Facebook statistics
** = Source: Alexa’s page about facebook
eCPM = Cost per a thousand impressions
So, according to the assumptions made and the available data, my approximate of the loss is near 0.24 million dollars for 10 days. Now, we’ll see whether this actually had a difference making impact on facebook overall.
Facebook’s revenue in 2008 was around $300 million, the most recent official data we have available would be of 2009. Facebook made around $550 million in 2009. So, we’ll take this figure into further calculation of the data. In this case:

• $550,000,000 in 365 days
• Average revenue of 10 days = (550000000 x 10 /365 = $15,068,493)
• Pakistan’s share of the revenue (242280 / 15068493 x 100 = 1.6%)

There you are, Pakistan has approximately 1.6% share of facebook’s revenue overall and resulted in a direct loss of $242,280 during the boycott according to our estimates. Please note, this is not the total loss that facebook beared during the boycott and only the loss resulting from the pakistani boycott not other muslim countries.
I’m uncertain as to how many other countries implemented a boycott on facebook nation-wide and how many muslims voluntarily joined the boycott. I’m sure, the overall figure would be more than the double of this because at least a million other muslims world-wide joined in the boycott and the eCPM in the western countries is much higher thus contributing to a bigger loss.
The following are the main variables which can alter the data if the assumptions made are invalid:

• eCPM: I assumed that the only revenue facebook has is that it get’s paid per a thousand impressions from it’s advertisers. They are also be operating a pay-per-click system, but we cannot be sure of the data for that, which is why I used the eCPM. Plus, I’ve assumed an eCPM of $1 which seems quite relevant to Pakistan’s case.
• Number of users: I’m 100% sure that the number of users does not include the facebook mobile users (which represnts 25% of facebook’s users). This would of course add to the total amount calculated, however, no data is available on that.

That’s it, if you’re a pakistani, now you can be a little sure that those days you spent without facebook were of some good. Resulting from the loss (or otherwise) facebook decided to take off the offensive pages.
All is good now, facebook has been open in pakistan for almost 2 weeks now and I’ve been using it ever since it opened. I just hope that facebook continues to co-operate with all portions of it’s user population and respects the interests of all.
I would love to hear to hear your comments on this, and please bear in mind that these figures are an approximate as well as an estimate. Any constructive criticism is most welcome and please consider to share this with your friends.

My take on the Facebook Boycott

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

As you might be knowing that today we, the facebook muslim community have arranged an organised protest / boycott of facebook for not removing pages that we find offensive. This move has been taken on the page ‘Everybody draw Muhammad (S.A.W) on 20th May’.
This page was reported as abuse classified under hate speech on the first sight by almost any practising muslim who has respect for Islam, including me. We have been reporting this page since 2 weeks to be removed from facebook.
Despite thousands of reports from muslims and even some non-muslims who believed that this was hate speech against Islam, facebook took no action on this matter. That is when we, the facebook muslim community decided to boycott facebook on 20th May to show our strength and our disapproval of the highly offensive act of facebook by not removing those pages.
I am very grateful to the government of Pakistan and the high court who took this a step forward. Instead of us facebook users reminding each other to not use facebook on 20th May. The lahore high court decided to pass a ban on facebook following this incident till the date of 31st May pending action from facebook regarding all of those pages.
All internet service providers in Pakistan were notified on this and day before yesterday, facebook was completely blocked by all ISPs. This is the email I received from my ISP:

Dear Valued Customer,
Micronet has blocked access to www.facebook.com
in compliance with orders of Lahore High Court passed today.
Facebook has been holding a competition to draw caricatures
of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and has not removed the
objectionable hate materials despite thousands of emails
from Pakistani facebook community.
This access would remain block till 31 May 2010 or further
orders by the Lahore High Court.
Best Regards

I hold high gratitude for the high court for taking this step. Muslims have been representing a high proportion of the internet users since it’s very start contributing to almost more than 45% of facebook’s users. We are definitely a majority and we cannot have our interests and beliefs insulted like that.
Muslims have been contributing to the internet in all forms (me and my blog is an example) and we are a main reason why facebook is making a lot of money. Losing all the muslim users means losing approximately 45% of your revenue (considering the average revenue per facebook user.
Moreover, facebook is a large business corporation. Any rational business would create about even the slightest change in their revenues while 45% is big enough to bring it down from the peak to the bottom.
I will prove this when I write another post about this in a few days where I will show the loss of facebook’s internet users and possibly revenue generation for them. It will definitely teach facebook a big lesson.

Where this started?

This is the first thing that I researched when I took a notice of this highly offensive page and the event.
A cartoonist, molly norris, did not like the censorship given to a scene in an episode of south park which depicted Prohpet Muhammad (PBUH). She believed that this provided a wrong image to the people of USA.
She decided to give birth to the idea of this day be as a call to freedom of speech and protest against the censorship that was given. This led to the facebook page being created and the whole thing going viral.
It was further ignited from a youtube video by a user by the name of ‘thunderf00t’. This user posted a video by the name of ‘Islam Fail’. This was deemed as extremely offensive by all of the muslim community on youtube. The responses were obvious to be harsh. Then this user went on to support 20th May as a ‘Everybody draw Muhammad (S.A.W) day’. (Nauzubillah)
This originated the whole thing and has resulted in a complete ban on youtube in Pakistan as well as that video had also been reported as offensive on no subsequent action was taken on that matter.
I have also removed the link to my blog’s fan page on facebook. I wouldn’t want to use facebook again until facebook takes some kind of an action on this matter, because if we use facebook, we want our interests to be protected.
I was much busy with my studies, but this is a post that I just had to put on the blog because I couldn’t really keep this inside. This is a thing that everyone should know, whether they’re a muslim or a non-muslim.
If you’re a christian, jew, hindu or even an atheist. Think about this with an open mind and think for yourself whether or not this is a massacre on the name of humanity. Better classified as ‘genocide’ by many. If highly offending the believers of a religion and insulting it is classified as ‘freedom of speech’ by the big internet websites, then we refuse to ever use them again.

Moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com Disappeared?!

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Most of you already know about moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com. It is one of the authority blogs in the ‘make money online’ niche. When I entered this niche in 2008, I kept a strict eye to the google search engine result pages.
This website, moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com has been ranking amongst the top 5 for the keyword ‘make money online’ for more than 2 years now. The person running the blog,  Liew Kum Cheng has  been writing for it consistently ever since.
It had around 1-2 new posts everyday. People used to write guest posts on it, even I’ve written a guest post on it last year. I don’t know that when this happened but I just thought of checking out the blog after a long while and got a bad surprise.
The blog no longer exists! Or in Google’s words:

The blog you were looking for was not found.

But isn’t this unfair? I hear you buddy. Remember what happened to me two years ago? In case you don’t, blogger suspended my account with 12 of my fully functional blogs. This isn’t really new. However, I wasn’t expecting this to happen a really popular blog. It was easily getting close to 2000 unique visitors a day, most probably I’m understating.
It was making a lot of money. Being number 1 for the keyword ‘make money online’ isn’t small you know. It made a lot of money. Plus, it was ranking in the top 3 for many other top keywords as well. I tried to check why this happens.
The reason would always be insufficient to call for the action of suspension for the blog as in my case as well. I have already emailed Liew asking what happened. He would definitely be involved in sending a gazillion mails to google.
This would be definitely a big loss for him. My sorrows are with him. All those who are still running on blogger.com, I think that it is about time that you start moving towards your own self-hosted blog.
This loss can be estimated in the $XX,XXX range. Such was the worth of the blog. So, blogger.com is definitely not a recommended choice for anyone looking to get into blogging anymore. The risks far outweigh the benefits. The choice is yours.
Update: The blog is now back up. I don’t really see a difference on it neither have I heard back from the author. I’m just glad it’s back again.

Hey You, Join My Facebook Fan Page!

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

In the infamous attempt to stalk communicate with my readers and fans, I created this really lean facebook page. It’s pretty basic and lacks much fans now, 38 as of now.
I’ve been getting dozens of facebook friend requests lately and it becomes quite hard to cope with so many readers and fans on my actual profile. I cannot engage in a proper discussion to questions and problems.
I have not yet installed a forum with my blog yet. So meanwhile, if anyone needs any help in making money, you could always head over to the facebook fan page. I’ll try to be active over there.

Why should I join the fan page?

1. If you need help with earning money online.
2. If you want to communicate with me.
3. If you want to interact with other 3arn.net readers.
4. If you’re interested in learning and sharing.
5. To stay updated with new posts at 3arn.net.
6. You’re simply a fan, you don’t need a reason to join.

I have added the facebook widget in the blog’s sidebar, it shows the fan count and gives you an option to become a fan. I know it’s pretty neat. Alternatively, below is the link to fan page.

I need your help!

Yes, you. I need to get more fans for the facebook fan page of 3arn.net. I know I can’t do that alone.
First, join the fan page.
Second, suggest the fan page to friends of yours.
Third, pat yourself on the back and enjoy the warm and fuzzy feeling that you get after doing a good job.
Let’s get this going people. I thank you in advance.
P.S. It is still new, so drop a comment and let me know what you think about the fan page. Any suggestions and recommendations would be great too.
UPDATE: The link to the facebook fan page has been removed due to a boycott on facebook. You can read more about it here

How I Choose A Topic For Blogging

Many times I have repeated in my blog posts about how important it is to select a good niche (preferably) or mass market topic for your blog. It can in many situation determine whether a blog is going to make money or not.
Choosing the wrong topic for blogging will only waste your time, money and effort and if you’re lucky it might pay off in the end. In case you don’t know, below are the definitions:

A niche market is a focused, targetable portion of a market.
A mass market is an unsegmented market with a mass appeal.

In case you did not understand, here is an example:
If I start a blog about cell phones, then I will be targeting a mass market because it will involve all the categories of cell phones that are present in the market today. It is, as one can tell, very general in it’s audience. I will have apple fan boys, nokia fan boys and many others visiting my blog.
While this may seem as a very lucrative opportunity, of  having such a big audience visiting your blog, it is an extremely  difficult project to pull off, if not impossible. Your competition span  will simply roll out from other technology bloggers like you, to big  media blogs run by companies having multi-million dollar budgets.
Alternatively, if I start a blog about nokia 5800 xpressmusic, then I will be targeting a much narrower audience. That is, all the people will only be interested in things concerning the nokia 5800 xpressmusic, it’s features, it’s applications, etc.
So, you get the point. It’s much easier and safer to start off with a niche market. It will not only provide you the ease of sticking to a topic and then blogging about it, but it will also save you from the hassle of competing with the big dogs. Trust me, when I say “hassle of competing with the big dogs”, I really mean it. You keep competing with them and end up nowhere.
It does not always have to mean that you need to blog about something you’re passionate, although it helps a lot. If you feel a niche market is not crowded and is profitable, tap into it. Do some research, develop some interest into the topic, and make a niche blog around it.
Once you have the blog ready, start publishing some informational and unique articles. Remember, providing value is the key to making money on the internet. So whatever you do, make sure you’re providing value to the blog’s visitors.
Personally, I have used many different ways of picking a topic for blogging. Firstly, it is passion. I have a passion for basketball, and so I started a website for basketball fans. This is the most ideal type because:

1. You love what you do
2. You don’t need to work as hard for understanding complexities of the topic at hand
3. You’ll work excessively without losing interest

Another important thing to remember is that, the biggest role-player in the ‘make money online’ process is patience. Being impatient can literally cost you thousands of dollars of potential earnings due to immature decisions made.
Secondly, I look for a hot market. Internet marketers are always promoting new products and when a lot of them are promoting the same product, it means that the product converts well and pays off. That’s a hint I pick up and start promoting that product.
The key here is to jump into the bandwagon in the early stage. This whole scenario can be seen on the diagram on the right called the product life cycle (PLC).
This is a product model used in business studies to find the behavior of products in a specific market. Despite the fact that I love making analogies, this applies well to the internet market quite well.
In this case, you should always keep an eye open to any new product on the buzz. The ideal strategy is to catch it in the introduction phase. Work on it through out the growth phase and keep making money while you’re at it and stop near the maturity. Considering that you work hard and don’t have invincible competitors, you can usually make a lot of money with this strategy. At least, I’ve used it and it works.
I agree that the PLC is bookish, but the actual PLC for every product will differ. Some will have a very prolonged growth phase, some will never reach maturity, while the majority will have a very steep decline phase.
It is important to understand the nature of the products that we promote on the internet. Fads, trends and fashions come and go on the internet like a pop song. Majority of the products you’ll promote would have a very high maturity point, sales will break records and then all of a sudden it will disappear into thin air with a nose dive in the decline phase.
The ability to foresee can prove very helpful. For example, the people companies who predicted the growth in the weigh loss market 10 years ago have made millions of dollars in the market. Now, it is at the stage of maturity which will stay prolonged till the obesity problems of the internet population aren’t solved. I hope you can sense the irony in that statement.
However, entering the market at this point will be more or less of a time waste because you cannot compete with the companies who have a very strong stand in the market and they will be having a capital advantage over you because of the profits they’ve made in the past.
Know that every hobby might not pay off as well as others. There could  be some topics which could get you a lot of visitors, but it becomes hard  to make money off that traffic. So do some research to look for whether  you can make money with the topic or not. Mostly people would throw in  unrelated ads at such websites, but it would be better to funnel the traffic to some other related website to make money.
So there you are with two methods of choosing topics for blogging. I use them myself and know that they make money. If you’re a starter, go with the first one. Once you’re a little acquainted with blogging, go hit the second one. Get to work and look for some good topics to blog about and you’ll be making money in no time.

Internet Marketing Fail

I think internet marketers need to proof read their ads at least once before advertising on websites like howstuffworks.com.

Can you spot the ‘extreme’ flaw in this ad?

I Announce The ‘Contest Winners’

Here I am posting an update on the blog almost 3 weeks. I’ve been busy and I extend deepest apologies for not getting the contest winners on time. Well, the contest ran for a straight 2 months and it was not up to my expectations yet it was good enough to satisfy me and the contest’s sponsors.
By the way, I was surprised that I never got any emails from contest participants to ask about the contest winners except a comment on some random post. I just filled the random.org’s list randomizer with a whole lot of email addresses. The were at least 80 entries for each package. Using that, below are the email addresses of the people who have won they package they sent their entries for. So without further ado, below are the contest winners:
Blogging Package - yulianto@solusiwebindo.com
SEO Package - pink-infinite@hotmail.com
Internet Marketing Package - n0tes@live.com
Advertising Package - admin@indocontest.com
Mix Package - dumbgamer88@gmail.com
Apparently, there are a few contestants who did the required tasks to get entries but never mailed me for confirmation.  Well, I can’t really leave them aside on the miscellaneous prizes. So, I’ll be giving them two days to contact me for confirmation and then they might be eligible for these miscellaneous.

Woots! I’m A Winner - What Next?

First of all, congratulations if you are a winner. Next, make sure that the email address over here is correct (if not then mail me and I’ll correct it) because the sponsors will only award prizes to the winners of the respective prizes with these email addresses.
From here on, you are responsible for claiming the prizes that you have one from your respective sponsors. They can be found on the original contest page. To those looking for the miscellaneous prizes, that will be up in two days while I wait to get some emails. Oh yeah, this time I will not be late.

Anonymous Blogging Vs. Conventional Blogging

An anonymous blogger is one who blogs under a pen name. He doesn’t reveal his identity to the readers, doesn’t matter what the reason is. Since I started blogging I have seen quite an increasing trend to this.
Conventional blogging is, well, just normal blogging where you don’t hide your identity from the readers. There may be a million and one ways why people choose the anonymity way to blogging, I will not be getting into that. But I will just be analyzing the merits and demerits of choosing to blog anonymously.
Instead of having you read through a huge pile of text, I’ll take the privilege to present it to you in form of a table.

#	Anonymous Blogging	Conventional Blogging
1	Not suitable if you want to build a community on your blog and increase interaction from the users who visit your website.	Much more suitable and reader-friendly in terms of receiving feedback from the visitors and creating interaction on your blog.
2	Hardly any chances of becoming some kind of an authority blogger or a ‘mover’ in your niche due to your anonymity.	Since you’re giving users a much better way to get to know you, a ‘real’ person’s opinion would also matter to them and you have a much better chance of having some importance in your niche.
3	Quite odd chances of making blogging friends unless you reveal your identity. I mean, you can’t be anonymous and a friend at the same time!	If you’re a friendly kind of a person and allow your readers access to your profiles on social networks, you might as well make some very helpful blogging friends.
4	Much harder to build user trust. This is very important if you’re trying to sell something on your blog or are trying to collect your reader’s email addresses. People are becoming more concerned about spam and scams.	When you get personal with your readers, your trust builds automatically. The problogger’s successful launch of his ‘31 Days to better blogging’ is a good example of the trust and authority factor on the success of an e-book launch.
5	You’re in a much safer position to try something shady.So, you can go ahead and try those traffic logs and other shady traffic ideas because even if you get caught you’re not losing reputation.	This is a big NO for the not-so-anonymous bloggers. Your reputation count goes to negative if you try something shady, others will think of your website as spammy and you have almost to recover from that.
6	There are times when you just want to go too controversial and expose some bad side of a kind of a big blogger. When you’re blogging anonymously, you are in the most safe position because any flaming from them would just be hitting a blank face.	You have to watch your mouth. The blogosphere is a big community you might not want to trash-talk and seem like the rude and arrogant blogger in the community and turn your blogging experience into a hell.
7	Better for MFA website. If your website is one of those throw-away websites that you make just for adsense then I would advise you to go for anonymous blogging. You can simply put up any type of content and make money. No worries about that.	Not to mention, the nonsense content we marketers put up there. You don’t want to lose your reputation again and get flamed by people accusing you of trying to ‘make monies’ and providing them low-quality content.
8	Just not suitable for branding, in most cases.	Perfect for branding. Provided that you choose a good domain name, make yourself and your blog brand-able.

That’s it for this little comparison between the two blogging ways that you could adopt. Now while I provided you with a more obvious side of the anonymous blogging thing.
For a new blogger wanting to achieve success, I would definitely recommend conventional blogging. There are many, many, many bloggers on the internet which may be a million times better than me at blogging and making money, and they are blogging anonymously.
My comparison was for the average start-up blogger because everybody does not have terrific humor like Internet marketing sucks or mastermind seo ideas like Slightly Shady SEO which cut out the anonymity part for the average reader.
So, go through this list again if you’re one of the double-minded people who just can’t decide which one is better.
P.S. You would NEVER  want to reveal your identity on an money making auto blog. Take my word on this one. *gulps*

Infolinks: Is Not Performing Up to My Expectation

Hi guys and girls, I have been doing testing by using Infolinks ads on Earn Money From Blog for more than 1 months and the earnings from Infolinks.com is very little. So, I decided to share with you about the performance of Infolinks.com ads on Earn Money From Blog in this post.

If in case you are also monetizing your blog using Infolinks.com ads on your blog, then I would recommend that you can try out other advertising platform to make money money from your blog. 

Read on to learn about my Infolinks.com earnings so far. 

I have been using Infolinks.com for almost 2 months and this is the end result of my trial to use Infolinks.com ads on my blog. I only managed to make USD$2.09 in a period of almost 2 months. 

I decided to stop using Infolinks.com ads on my blog for the time being and try to use other advertising to see whether I can make more money from Earn Money From Blog. 

So, I would advice you to check your Infolinks.com account and see whether it is performing good or not. Do not waste the advertising spaces and chance to make more money from your blog.

If you are aiming to make more money other than your blog, you might want to have a look at Triond and Bukisa. Both are good source of extra income online.
