Caraga Review More On SEO

October 28, 2010 Leave a Comment

For almost four years of blogging, this site amazed me of increasing traffic that started from scratch. Caraga started as a blogspot, a free publishing tool owned by Google. A year later, I purchase domain name from Godaddy. The site still hosted free by Google using the simple and in-demand Blogger platform.

The site focused on beautiful Caraga destinations or Caraga tourist spots. I am calling the site as Caraga Rising Paradise because people keep asking about the place. The name somewhat unknown to them. But when they scan the pages of the site, some are saying they want to jump right away.

A place is climbing towards the famed spot, still climbing. A beautiful place started to rise because of tourism. But there is just one concern that I want to shout against it, and that is mining. Topping the news that Caraga is now mining capital in Asia because of its rich in mineral resources, I’m afraid that my dream will break into pieces as mining will lash back tourism. At the end, Caraga rising paradise will turn into nightmare.

I hope not.

Anyway, I have to leave everything of what will happen in the next decade. But now, I am enjoying steadily the increasing traffics coming to my site. As of this moment, I have an average fifty unique visitors per day. Seventy percent of my visitors were come from organic search engine while twenty percent from direct traffics, and ten percent from referring sites. Well, that was a great accomplishment for Caraga.

Google The Net For Traffics

I have been an Entrecard lover. But one year making debut and never stop blog hopping I put in my mind how to put this thing out in my hand and discontinue clicking the button. Although Entrecard increases my traffic in Alexa Rank but progressively slowly down when you became inactive. I believe it was just giving you temporary traffic but helps a lot for those who are not dying in clicking the button. But believe me the button still exists for anyone would like to advertise. Entrecard lovers are welcome.

I have been actively involve to different bloggers group and added my site to them particularly Mybloglog and Blogcatalog but it seems traffics are expected low. But in the first place when you are new to blogging you have to take advantage and registered your site to them. You will not regret in putting these sites in your bucket list. You will be connected to different owners of blogsites.

I registered my site to different forums from Caraga to Internationally known blogger forums. I have been actively commenting blogsites too. Although commenting can makes some drastic changes to traffic in your site but turns out to be seasonal. This makes me a freak human being in the making. Traffics showing in the blogs are the most exciting moments for bloggers. Blogs are alive and competing in the highway.

How I Love SEO

In the world of blogging, you must be consistent in publishing articles in your blog site. More articles mean more traffics coming to your site. In the year 2010, there are months as you can see it in my Blog Archive, no posting of articles at all, and for the months I have posted, I have done it only once in a month. I became a lazy blogger. What makes this site amazing was the less posting of articles but in effect traffics are increasing.

A lot of bloggers have posted articles thrice a week to increase traffic in their site. And if you are a dedicated and persistent bloggers you can post an article once in a day, and you became an exceptional bloggers at the end.

Because bloggers believed that Content is King.

In my case, there is just one important factor that makes me a lazy blogger and that is discovering SEO. You have to understand that keywords are important in your site. Right keywords are the magic words streaming in your articles. The most awesome activity is when traffics coming in by just sleeping around the corner or go to bed at night. The next day when you open your stats traffics are flowing in. This is the juiciest part in SEO, and I became a fan and like SEO forever.

No effort on the part of the publisher or website owners. You just imagine that peoples around the globe discovered Caraga in one, two or three words in their minds with just a click of their mouse.

Visitors from organic search are fruitful peoples and real ones. The value of their presence in your site affects your site credibility and ranking. This is why the reason why I fight for SEO in Caraga. In other aspect, I continue being a lazy blogger for not posting articles frequently as needed. If I have done this as an excellent bloggers like others have done, then this site moves in the ranking with flying colors.

Rich Keywords Are Goldmine

Another juicy part in SEO is pitting the right keyword the presence of Google Ads in your site. Using the keywords will match the presence of Google Ads in your site. Peoples searching for topics are endless. When your site was lucky for a visit as someone reach the topics, the end of the visit was probably the exit link of Google Ads due to matching topics or keywords. This in turn will put your site in money making online.

Rich keywords will put your site in a mountain of gold. Yes, rich keywords are money. Google Ads will paste your site the most precious and money-valued ads. I will not anymore explain how it will be done because Google has the right things to do. Anyway, I hate putting this site into money making online machine as promised. But if the demands pour, why not grab the opportunity? I have to break the promise.

This is what makes blogging inspiring.

Backpacking is a great way to enjoy nature up close and is a very affordable way to engage physical activities and see unique places. We all know that the word backpacking of course comes from its root word backpack. When you are out in the wild and are going for an adventure it is always a good feeling when you know that you have the new backpacking gear attach to your body. It is crucial for having an ultra lightweight backpacking as much as possible because you are taking the course of different places you have not seen.

Backpacking in Caraga is such a wonderful experience that I would urge all you backpackers out there to visit and do a bit of traveling in a motherly nature of Caraga. Backpacking Caraga: destinations that should be on your next itinerary.

Backpacking Tools

In modern times, the trend of hiking and trekking is increasing. Nothing can ruin a hiking, camping, or backpacking trip as being unprepared. So the next time you take a backpacking trip, make sure you have these ten essentials:

1. Map – assists one in not getting lost in the ground.
2. Compass (optionally supplemented with a GPS receiver) – the same idea of no.1 essentials.
3. Sunglasses and sunscreen – prevent any probable eye injury inflicted by sun light, tree branches and flying debris.
4. Extra food and water – prevent or cure hypothermia and dehydration.
5. Extra clothes – protect from hypothermia and the elements, including thorns, insects, sun, wind, and often cold.
6. Headlamp (outdoor)/ flashlight – protect from physical injury when traveling in the dark.
7. First aid kit – commonly contains items to treat cuts, abrasions, punctures and burns.
8. Fire starter – to light a campfire is helpful for preventing hypothermia and to signal for aid. In a disaster, a fire increases one’s psychological will to survive.
9. Matches – the same idea of no. 8 essentials.
10. Knife – useful for opening kits, building shelter, shaving wood for tinder, eating, ground surgery (after sterilization), cutting rope and clothing, etc.

Other Paraphernalia

Additional thing is to have a whistle signaling for any danger that might come in your way. As I mentioned before when having a backpacking trip, it is important to have an ultra lightweight backpacking in which the backpack itself speaks the weight. Like getting in a rogue mountain of splendid Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee is very easy. It will carry you in an endless way like your best friend attaching each other.

If you have been using a traditional backpacking tent, it is a smart idea to verify up on a tarp that can serve as a suitable shelter. Then pick a backpacking tent to handle the worst conditions you are probably to face with. A couple of tents offer also an amazing weight saving design. This is notably important aspect in getting shelter to the unknown exciting place like trekking in Mt. Hilonghilong of Agusan del Norte and the majestic Mt. Mayapay of Butuan City.

How about replacing those heavy, hot hiking boots and walk in comfort on your next backpacking trip? Yes, you can. With sixteen pounds on your back, and running shoes in preference to hiking boots, you are backpacking farther, higher, and more enjoyable.

Backpacking could be a fun and adventurous way to spend a weekend with your friends and family.

These exotic places are drowning your memory to the end. The Mother Nature in them is so intoxicating that it will put you in to a newly-renovated or highly-elevated person in the making.

Put Me High Against The Sun Down

The sweetest part is so dominating when the sun began to submerge the earth surface. When you are having the sun of your dream, try the beautiful sunset in Caraga, and became a dreamer. The sight and sound is clear. With lots of wonder and ponder that is striking in your brain. Sunset is my best delicacy of the day.

Sunset was the best place to express someone’s feeling. The cloud of doubt was gone in the valley. Love birds tend to be sweeter each day. This is the place that you can say anything else but purely love and emotion. The sun has to say goodbye but it will spell a magic touch to everyone who able to see him as it gone to the seas or mountains. Where ever the sun goes down the atmosphere become a hottest place for lovers to share. I will never forget the beautiful place of Mabua and Boracay. These places were unforgettable nest for all love birds out there.

My Lust That Last For Life

Since I was a young boy I already pondered and amazed of the beauty when the sun started to disappear in the horizon. Its stunning sunrays spreads like a virus in the sky as it reflect even the cumulus clouds in the distance. I cannot give myself a chance without seeing it as it bid goodbye in the horizon. I have to do it at the roof top of our house, since then before getting old, and even before I retire.

The desire of having it as part of your life through days will put in as the most awaited part in your life. Beauty in this world can be your guiding light as you walk with your heart. Amazing Caraga, amazing world, isn’t it?

May 29, 2009 7 Comments

In general, Filipinos love to sing in which that character possesses the peoples of Caraga. Even those waking the old days of our 50’s and 60’s dramas and movies, typically reflects our love of singing. Expressing the most intimate feelings you have through the effort of your voice that others will be able to hear you, and soften their tired or aching souls. It is a one way of seeing I’m sorry to you, and then others let them forgave you. The power of the music has drawn from one generation to the next generation.

In Caraga, the singing sensation of caraganon was broadened to the love of videoke. Have it a flat screen while singing, you follow the tone of the music and the stream of the lyrics. At the end it will rate you as a professional singer, or never mind if you have a failing grade as long as you express the feelings in your heart.

The Night Escapade

When you became a person in this world as a baby, you will hear the song of your parents while in their arms, it will amaze you as you hear them, and it will calm you at first then till it sleeps you to the deep. That is the magic of the sound you hear until it grows you into a fine young person.

This is how you rated peoples of Caraga, a song bird from the start. The night gobbles up as the song has started in the air. When you go home, you can hear it even the fine young guys in the store along the streets gave their loudly tone right next to them was a cup of beer. Yes, it added fun to the group.

Colored streets in the night added the entertainment in one of the hottest bar in the place. You can see them in public or else in one of the private room in a hotel with VIP treatment. Sing it loud and cast away your entire predicament in life. Forget everything that makes you an old person in the making. According to some, this is just one way of fighting the old enemy within us – the stress and strain in life.

Life Is Short

Videoke are the most exploited enjoyable thing to do. Even when I go home, I felt sometimes fed up from my office work so I have to enliven myself with my family as the audience, and sing. With the VCD component and digital TV, it is just amazing having it in your living room and hearing your voice like a singer although it is a terrible voice I have in the making hehehe.

One of my friends has his own simple marks in life, and that is life is so short, we have to give the best of it. And when the night comes fun begins in the making. Forget the pressure of the day, and let the night take care of everything. While still young doused your energy before it will take away your youth.

For me I’ve done it in our home. I’m just making my family happy, or else, I make their face acidic to my voice escape hehehe.

Discounted Airfare – a boom for untouched caraga

May 27, 2009 3 Comments

Caraga as a growing tourism industry nowadays benefited much of the advertisement done by famous airlines to have a discount to demanding traveling public. Recently, known airline in our country have got the best offer of having the best tempting cheap flights anywhere in our country. The public turned panic, and the internet site was exhausted with lots of airlines traffic.

Proposed Butuan International Airport

Five years ago, you can say no to airlines but instead go shipping for Cebu as the nearest economic hub in Butuan. But now, one of my comrades was able to jump to Cebu for just 30 minutes and have some great fun for the whole day. And go back for the next days as if just like a fairy tale story, somehow, you have gone easily and back just for minutes in the next day.

This is how tourism industry affects the future of Caraga. Modern ways of transportation and other structural facilities in an airport affects the increasing demand of visiting local and international tourists. And now, here comes these hotter… and hotter low airfares that lure even those who love it and hate it would be traveler.

Tourism and Transportation Connected

You can not go to your dream vacation without the muscle of transportation. Put this in your list of where to go, and how to handle the mechanics of being carried away in a far and exotic place that you have never been.

One of my friend in the net ask me about the beauty of Tinuy-an Falls as the Niagara of Caraga. Then his next question is how to get there, of course you can jump there with your four wheels as you like. And that is easy and convenient thing to do in having an adventures to Tinuy-an Falls which is located at the center of the forest. You can park your car there, and be refreshed with the cool air coming from the mountains with a blasting sound of the water falls that is sweet to your ears. This is the way how to get in love with Mother Natures.

I dreamed of having a ride someday. I dreamed of going to a place that I want to. These two things will be my invaluable possession as a traveler in Caraga. Without it, it seems everything far away from your dreams. I think it is a wonderful place to look the world outside with a wheel of your dreams. Getting the best of it looks the scenic spots will be in your next door someday.

Low Airfares Attract Caraga Visitors

As I mentioned the low fare that caused a lot of panic here, travelers for outside Caraga have their own plans of going to the Queen City of the south. But in contrary, travelers who want to go to Caraga are just as excited in embracing the prime tourist destinations in the future. Airline tickets demand will become an increase paradigm, and in the future, Caraga will become a tourist hub.

With the report recently of Department of Tourism regarding the surge increase of visiting local and international tourists in Caraga, low airfares added more weight for our tourism to grow further as it push down to the limits for vacationers to come. Whether they like it or not, Caraga is rising…slowly to the peak.
