Empire Views - Your guide to success with Youtube

Today we are going to talk about a site called Empire Views and on how to use it together with Youtube and with different websites.

Empire Views is a view exchange site that allows you to get views to your website of Youtube video.
The way the system works is that it allows you to add your site to the rotation and it will be viewed by other people. The views will come from Unique IPs and viewed by real people. You can allocate credits to your links, this allows you to control how many views you get.

To earn views you will need to use a automated viewer that will run in the background and will automatically look at the sites in rotation for 45sec each. For every view you make you get credits that you can add to your own sites to get more views. The best part is that you do not need to interact with the viewer, all you need to do is start it and the credits will come flowing in.

There are more ways of getting credits. If you for some reason do not wish to use the viewer you can always buy the credits. Credits are sold at a very cheap rate, cheaper than anywhere else. The payments and credit delivery are also very fast. There is an option of earning credits from completing surveys or doing certain offers. You also get the option of earning credits from forum posts.

For those who need subscribers to their channels, Empire Views offers an option to trade subscriber credits for real subscribers. You can gain these credits by following other people or by purchasing them for a cheap price at the marketplace.

Empire Views offers a very good referral system where you gain one credit for every view any of your referrals makes. This allows you to earn a large amount of views and credits in a very short period of time and can be used for constant credits. There is also a daily contest in which the user with most referrals gets 1000 credits every day.

Overall my experience with the site has been excellent. The viewer works well, the visits are delivered fast and constantly. And the beauty of the site is that the more members it gets the more unique views you gain. The support of the site is also excellent. And the best part is that the service is free!
So feel free to try it out and leave some feedback on how it worked out for you!

How to get free stuff

We all like free stuff don't we? Well one way to get free things is to take part in
Facebook competitions and free giveaways.

As we all know Facebook is a social media site. And because it has so many users, company's want to use Facebook to advertise their products. Advertising is a two-sided coin, the adds keep the company alive and inform us, but on the other hand seeing too many commercials will get annoying, and can turn people off.
But do not take the advertising there as a bad thing, there are plenty of companies that want to get publicity and to get noticed by users and are willing to  give away free stuff for it. There are hundreds of offers every day on Facebook.

All you need to do is like the page, and enter the competition. The percentage of winning can be low, but wheres the harm in trying? Is a FREE PC or phone worth 2 minutes of your time? If yes, enter in the competitions :)

For example, Steelseries is giving away a free item every day till the end of christmas. If you wish to take part, click the following link http://www.facebook.com/SteelSeries?sk=app_281882075187954

If you have any questions feel free to ask. If there is interest in this part, i am willing to make a new topic specially about Facebook free giveaways.

How to save money on keeping electric bills lower.

A simple way to save money is to spend and use less. Seems simple enough doesn't it? A lot of people do not think about it, but there is actually a very simple and effective way to save money on electricity. I am sure many people already know it, but those who do not, this is how:

Think about your home, what appliances do you have that use electricity? And how many of them do you keep plugged in all the time? If you already have an idea where this is going you may skip the following if you wish.

 * Most appliances use a mode called "Standby" This means the appliance is in a state where it is turned off, but is easily re-activated. When you turn off your TV, PC; Radio or any other appliance, you assume it is turned off now, and thats that. The truth is the appliance still stays in consumption mode.

The main appliances that fall under this category are:

Media devices (TV, Radio, VCR, DvD players, PC) etc.
Devices that use a timer.
Devices with rechargeable batteries.
Devices that use "Quick Start" mode (Mouse, keyboard, modem, for turning the PC back on)

These devices, if plugged in, may be around 10% of your power consumption. Depending on how old the device is and its condition. 

SO what should you do?

  • Unplug the device - Yes it is that easy, if you don't use it, don't keep it plugged in. Especially the devices that you use seldom or irregularly.
  • When dealing with PCs - Disable on the fly settings of "Wake on keyboard, modem, any key" and commands like this. This means the PC does not need to keep using power for these operations.
  • A radical way is to buy "Energy efficient" new devices that use around 1% power on standby.
Try these tips for about a month and see if your electric bills have decreased.

Also buy energy saving light pulps. And dont forget to turn off the light when ypu are not in the room :)

If you already knew it, thats fine, but to anyone who hasn't really thought of it, try it.

   Best Regards,
