Unionbank EON Cyber Account

Posted on January 18, 2008 by greenbucks| 1 Comment

I got myself a Unionbank EON Cyber Account when I applied to do sponsored posts.

Why?

The payment that will be made through my PayPal account will be transferred there, which I have to do online. No need to go to the bank and queue up and fill up forms to have the money transferred to the EON Cyber Account.

How can one transfer the money?

Just go to your Paypal account, online of course, making sure you have sufficient funds to transfer to the Unionbank EON Cyber Account. For every transaction, $5 will be debited for the services rendered. Then, click the necessary buttons and wait.

Wait for 5 to 7 days for the money to be reflected in the Unionbank EON Cyber Account.

How would you know if the money is there?

Log on to you Unionbank EON Cyber Account online account and check.

If the funds are available already, you can withdraw the funds at any ATM Megalink branches. Even BPI ATM can be used too for cash withdrawal with the Unionbank EON Cyber Account, if there is no sign that says otherwise.

Did this post help? I will be making a more detailed post on the procedure of how I had mine up and running. Without a glitch, not like what happened to others I have read about.

Tomorrow I would be posting the process that I went through when I applied for my Unionbank EON Cyber Account.

Spam Catcher

Posted on December 17, 2007 by greenbucks| 1 Comment

Why is installing a spam catcher in a blog a good step? A spam catcher catches spam comments that would otherwise be caught in your comments section which you have to delete one after the other. These either contain nonsense words, key words that bloggers wouldn’t want to be associated with or videos about the different anatomical parts of the human species 😉
Our main blog, TeacherJulie.com blog had to swim through a lot of spam emails/comments that go through the posts’ comments. The task of removing thee cuaght spam comments was tedious, to say the least. I had to select/approve those that are legit comments and delete those that were not. Wasted time, wasted resources.

The task was daunting and tiring. And time-consuming too. As of today, there are 31,000+ spam comments caught by the spam catcher installed.

Update: there are 54,000+ spam comments caught by my spam catcher.

There are two or three that slips through the spam catcher daily but we are not complaining so far. Such as there are also two or three legit comments that are caught as spam but since these bloggers are kind enough to tell me that they have been considered as spam, we try to retrieve their comments.

Even if we have to scan through hundreds.

What is your Spam Catcher called?

Mine is called Akismet.

Linking to a Source

Posted on December 3, 2007 by greenbucks| 2 Comments

When citing a source, be these second-hand or third-hand information, linking to the source is very important.

There are two types of linking, linking the main blog or deep linking to a specific page.

For example, if I would like to go to the main blog, I will link only Main Blog.

But if I want to deep link to a specific page in the main blog, bypassing the main blog, I will link Niche Blogging and link will take the one who clicked it to the particular post about niche blogging. Viola! No need to go to the main blog and search for that post.
