Steve Jobs Motivation for Bloggers and Entrepreneurs

Steve Jobs has been an inspiration in the past years as he has been involved so much in the Technology developments making new inventions which had helped many people around the world.


Most of the words shared on this article were spoken by Steve Jobs at a Speech at the Stanford university, his speech was very much ideal for Bloggers and Entrepreneurs. We are sharing this article with you to give you the important facts and motivations that drove the success of Steve Jobs into creating a Billion dollar empire which has been very influential in the World.

Do What You Love Most


The secret of being successful in Blogging is simply by doing what you love the most as a blogger, it could be anything but, it doesnt necessarily have be where the money is but it should be on what you love the most.


 
Live Each day as it was your last day

Yes Just as it sounds, it seems easy but yet it is hard to live each day as your last but patience does. Steve Jobs has changed the way way we use mobile phones by bringing inventions that has moved the world to a much high level of technology. It was all by living his life to the best, making huge Impacts and living each day as it was the last day.

Steve Jobs has confirmed with the Stanford students that for the last 33 years of his life lived his life as it was his last as he mentioned to himself every morning until he was able to bring big changes to the world that have changed the way we use technology today.


Dont waste your Life living Somebodies life

Most people live other peoples lives until they retire, they have found it hard to reach their own success due to fear of failure. Some of the Words Spoken by Robert Kiyosaki he Said "Sometimes we lose and Sometimes we Learn" which means as an Entrepreneur you don't lose but you learn instead.


I don't say that you should quit your job but instead have a plan on when you will be able to quit your job and start working on an empire, that will bring you an income. Don't waste you life pushing the life of your boss but live your life for your own success.

Stay Hungry and Foolish among People

In your Blog niche, you should always be eager to learn more even if you were a professional. Try by all means to discover new things and act as a fool and be as humble as you can be.
Steve Jobs was a professional when it comes to smartphones and gadgets but the most interesting thing he did he was always willing learn more.



Steve Jobs has always found himself chasing success whenever he found an opportunity as today he has been able to takeover the world with his mind and made his abilities a must have to gain success. I will really recommend this ebook to you Titled "Awaken The Giant Within" , this book has been the New York best seller and it is regarded as the best guide that can help you achieve the dream you have about your future and make impact in the world today.

keep discovering and don't settle for What you have

The sky is the limit, want success as much as you want to breath. As a blogger you must always try to achieve the best even though you might have achieved your current goals, you must always look up to achieving more.

A great man by name Prophet TB Joshua once gave a statement which said "Greater is not enough but The Best is Yet to come" , Be inspired to do more.

Add Auto Read More with thumbnail for Blogspot/Blogger Posts


The most effective method to make posts in the online journal landing page to be shown with a programmed "read more" catch and a thumbnail. 

To be more particular, this will demonstrate the title of the post, then a short outline with various characters and a thumbnail, that will be the thumbnail of the first picture transferred inside the post. After the thumbnail and the post outline, there will be a "Read More" connection, which when you tap on it, will take you to the genuine post. 

This Automatic Read More script will compress substance and a post rundown will be indicated just on the primary online journal page (landing page), classification pages, and chronicle pages.



Adding the Automatic Read more Button on Blogger

  • Step 1 : Go to Blogger Dashboard and Select Template and then select Edit HTML to open your Template code.



  • Step 2 : Now on your Blogger Template search for this code , Note that this code appears three times on blogger, you got to find the third one.

  • Step 3 : Replace the third <data:post.body/>  code with this code
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;static_page&quot;'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
<div expr:id='&quot;summary&quot; + data:post.id'><data:post.body/></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb(&quot;summary<data:post.id/>&quot;,&quot;<data:post.url/>&quot;,&quot;<data:post.title/>&quot;);</script>
 <span class='readmore' style='float:right;'><a expr:href='data:post.url'>Read More &#187;</a></span></b:if></b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><data:post.body/></b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;static_page&quot;'><data:post.body/></b:if>

img_thumb_width = 180;
</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[

if(strx.indexOf("<")!=-1)
{
var s = strx.split("<");
for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){
if(s[i].indexOf(">")!=-1){
s[i] = s[i].substring(s[i].indexOf(">")+1,s[i].length);
}
}
strx = s.join("");
}
chop = (chop < strx.length-1) ? chop : strx.length-2;
while(strx.charAt(chop-1)!=' ' && strx.indexOf(' ',chop)!=-1) chop++;
strx = strx.substring(0,chop-1);
return strx+'...';
}
function createSummaryAndThumb(pID, pURL, pTITLE){
var div = document.getElementById(pID);
var imgtag = "";
var img = div.getElementsByTagName("img");
var summ = posts_no_thumb_sum;
if(img.length>=1) {
imgtag = '<span class="posts-thumb" style="float:left; margin-right: 10px;"><a href="'+ pURL +'" title="'+ pTITLE+'"><img src="'+img[0].src+'" width="'+img_thumb_width+'px" height="'+img_thumb_height+'px" /></a></span>';
summ = posts_thumb_sum;
}

var summary = imgtag + '<div>' + removeHtmlTag(div.innerHTML,summ) + '</div>';
div.innerHTML = summary;
}
//]]>
</script>

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;static_page&quot;'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
<style type='text/css'>
.post-footer {display: none;}

How much money do big blogs make


Blogging has been seen as the best strategy to make money online as there have risen millionaires from within the Blogsphere.

From the 2005 to present many successful Blogs have risen in the blogging business from the likes of Mashable, Huffpost and Techcrunch which have been making tons in revenue from different sources like Advertising, products and many other sources that can be used to make money online, We have seen small blogs turning into multi million dollar blogs within months which has made us to do some important research on different money making strategies that are being used by these Bloggers and how much effort do they put into making millions from Blogging.

The Purpose of Blogging
Blogging has been recognized as the way of making money which is false because the very first thing matters in the love for the niche you are blogging about which will boost the traffic volume of your site, then more money can be made from the site.
Blogging should not be considered a get rich quick way because you will really get disappointed by the results because as a blogger the very first thing to aim for is "Getting Readers Satisfied With Your Blog" and the you can focus on profit.

Most of the Big Blogging giants were started by individual bloggers blogging with an aim to share their knowledge and love for a certain niche until their influence improved upon their niche coverting into brands, running a big blog needs innovation and needs the blogger to seperate himself/herself by being unique, making themselves the readers first choice.

What inspired them to Blogging success
To match up with media giants needs a lot of commitment which can simple be done by getting your blog updated more frequently and also by responding to the readers needs as the author and Administrator. As a Blogger you really need to fill up the gap between you an the readers, you need to create a special bond which will make your blog iresistable to them.
If a certain label/tag on your Blog has most pageviews then that should ring some bells meaning that your blog readers love that tag and you should always try to get it posts updated more often to keep close to your blog.

How do these Blogs make Money
Looking at Big blogs that make tons of money online you will get to see amazing strategies that you may have never thought about as I will be sharing the secret revenue strategies of the likes of Mashable as one of the blogs with a Current market value of $300 Million and yet this Blog is 10 years old. The had already became an empire in eight months after being founded  by Pete Cashmore in 2005 and within 8 months he was able to high another writer to keep his blog moving.

Advertising Networks
When it comes to Blogging there is a good propability of online success as bloggers have been able to drive quality income using different monetization methods either than using the well know strategy which is Advertising, Advertising has been used by big blogs to help bring in passive income.

Direct Advertising
Direct Advertising is the form of Advertising done by selling Advertising space directly to the readers, it is used by almost every big blog to generate an income for the Blog, this type of advertising does not require any participation of third parties but it is between the advertiser and the customer.

Sponsored Posts and Reviews
Sponsored posts and reviews are know as paid posts which can either be written by the client or the blogger, the minimum price for these posts is $50 for blogs that get less than 500 daily pageviews, and for bigger blogs the price can be an over $4000 per post published.

Products and Services
As a Blogger, you have to sell something atleast to your readers and clients. You can sell anything from any niche and make money simply by doing that and I will guarantee you an income. Most Big Blogs are known for the products and services that they sell but that does not mean that you must violate the pride of your blog and fill it with products because will really chase the blog customers.

Webinars and Podcasts
Webinars are Interactive seminars that happen online to a live audience, these seminars are simply the best as they can boost the income made by over $45,000 per webinar for a blog that has 10,000 email subscribers.

Conclusion
There is quite a huge number of ways that may be used to make money online, which shows the great possibilities to online monetization. Another blogger I knon Jon Marrow makes a minimum of $100,000 per month without selling Ads but by applying different methods of monetization.

Google Plus to Split up in The Next Months

On Monday Google plus have confirmed that they will be improving the quality of their service by splitting their social network into different categories to improve growth.

This development by Google plus has been sparked by the social media improvements that have been brought by Facebook and Twitter to help them improve user commitment as they have added new customizations which has divided the social network. Things that were done on services like youtube using a Google profile will no longer require a Google profile which means that Youtube users will not use a Google account to comment on the youtube streaming service.

This change was being inspired by Google after it social network failed to match up with the likes of Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin which are the most broad growing networks as they have even improved recently making Google plus to stay behind as one of the least networks. These changes by the Google plus team are believed to bring its network to a good position as they are to seperate the Well known Photos, Youtube and Hangouts, away from the social network itself making it a stand alone.

The well known Google plus profile will not be visible on search engines which means that you profile searchable or followable which is the biggest change by Google plus . Among the major changes by Google plus is Youtube as the video sharing service will be one of the big companies to experience the changes as the comments made on youtube will no longer be linked to the users Google+ profiles as confirmed on the Youtube Blog . Youtube users will continue be allowed to use the Google plus profile to share videos until Google confirms the deadline date.

Google plus users are currently motivated not to stop using youtube, Photos and other services to be affected by the updates as the big changes will take months before they are implemented on the network.

How To Auto Update Template Credits in Blogger

Having to put credit Links and dates on Blog footer  is quite easy and can be updated manually by accessing your Template source code but there is a much better way That will help getting the job done for you with ease. The template footer credits plays a very big role on a blog template as they help make your blog look very much more professional as it will have special attributes that will help boost the trust of the blog reader.



The use of a footer credit will not only improve reader trust in your blog but will also create an awareness of the blog content ownership. When it comes to Blogging, there are many content thieves out there that steal blog content by using the copy paste method whereby they will simply copy content from the targeted blog page and they will paste it on their own blog page, This type of action is known as plagarism.


So if you really want to created an awareness for your blog content you will have to use a credit with an updated blog name because we bloggers rename our blogs more often depending on the changes we do to them, which may be a change in niche or any other change to improve the blog but it happens that the old name of the Blog on the Footer will remain unchanged making you blog to look out of order. In this tutorial I will show you how to auto update the Blog Trademark or Credit, and on how to auto update the blog date to the current one with the use of Javascript.


• Log into Blogger Dashboard and go to template and select Edit HTML to open the Template Source code


•  Once you are on the template code press 'CTRL' and 'F' Keys to open the search box.

The date for most blogs is 2013, 2014 or any other date. Replace the date showing on your blog template footer with this automatic updating code.

type='text/
javascript'>document.
write(new Date
().getFullYear());</script>


• Once your Have updated the Template date you can save your Template to see if your Template was updated.

• For most new templates the footer has the new update code but I will share for those using codes that are not yet updated. To get the new update for the Blog name in the footer you should look for the name that is showing after or before the © sign  and Replace it with this code and save:


<data:blog.title/>™


• The Last thing to do is to check the link in your template which will be before the <data:blog.title/>™ code, The link should be Replaced with this code


<a expr:href=' data:blog. homepageUrl'>


• At the end of the customizations your code should look in this way depending on the Template used


<a expr:href=' data:blog. homepageUrl'> <data:blog.title/>™ </a> © <script type='text/javascript'>document.write(new Date().getFullYear());</script>
