3 Ways to Prepare Your Blog for Christmas


                                  
Christmas is a time of celebration, everybody knows that.And everywhere you visit around the world, both offline and online, only remindyou of it. And we must agree that Christmas also has its effect on us bloggers.If you are a blogger who schedules 5 to 10 articles for your blog on normaldays, I bet you’ll only be able to do half of that now. And going this way canonly reduce the traffic and rankings of your blog, if you can’t find somethingto do. 


3 Ways to Prepare Your Blog for Christmas
   
   
   
Given, you can’t blot out yourself from the merry andcelebrations going around just because you want to focus your attention on yourblog and on the other hand, you can’t leave your blog to die for the sake ofChristmas. There has to be a way to do things without making one suffer for thesake of the other. And this is when the tips I’ll be sharing in this articlebecome relevant. 

Start GeneratingIdeas When you Have the Chance 

Generating ideas for your future blog posts is one of thebest ways to prepare your blog for this Christmas. If you are the type thatwrites quality articles for your blog every day, you’ll want to agree with methat when you have ideas for the article you want to write for your blog, halfof your work is done!
So if you are only left with half of the amount of time youusually had, having your post ideas ready can help you maximize your time andalso help you keep your blog going.
At least, I have more than twenty post ideas for my diamondinternational discounts and allurez coupon blog which I plan to use during theChristmas.

Schedule Your BlogPosts Ahead 

Another great way to make sure your blog stays afloat duringthis festive period is by scheduling your articles for the days you know youwon’t have the opportunity to write any. If there is any better way to do this,it is by making yourself write more articles than you initially do now. If youalways write two articles before, you can write four and schedule the other twoto publish on a later day, advisable on a very busy day.
And if doing this is going to be stiff for you, you may haveto consider doing what I’m sharing below.

Hire Writers orRequest for Guest Posts 

Hiring writers can be a bit expensive but it’s worth it whenyou consider the benefit you are going to derive from it. When you’ll be busywith your friends during Christmas, your writers can be writing blog posts foryour blog without you having to do the job yourself.
If your budget will not allow you to hire writers, you cando it in a simpler way, by asking people to write for you as guest authors. Manypeople will be willing to give you an article for free in exchange for abacklink on your blog.

Amazon is on fire in this holiday season as they are selling more than 1 Million

Kindle Fire Per Week.However the Amazon has never released specific sales

figures for the Kindle Fire.The announcement came on Thursday in a press release

and after the press release Amazon shares rose by 1.5 percent.







“Kindle Fire is the most successful product we’ve ever launched – it’s the

bestselling product across all of Amazon for 11 straight weeks, we’ve already

sold millions of units, and we’re building millions more to meet the high

demand. In fact, demand is accelerating – Kindle Fire sales increased week over

week for each of the past three weeks. People are buying Kindle Fire because

it's a simple, fully-integrated service that makes it easy to do the things they

love – watch movies, read books and magazines, listen to music, download apps,

play games, and surf the web,” said Dave Limp, Vice President, Amazon Kindle.

“Our family of Kindle e-ink readers are close behind Kindle Fire on the

Amazon.com bestseller list. Customers continue to report preferring their Kindle

e-reader for long-form reading, and in fact we’ve seen many customers buy two

Kindles – both a Kindle Fire and a Kindle or Kindle Touch – this holiday

season.”


These figures are more than awesome for Amazon as kindle fire is only available

in US till now.Kindle fire was earlier considered as iPad killer and it

definitely can stop its dominance in tablet market to some extent.

About two months ago, my co-founder Scott and I attended F8. We were blown away

by Facebook’s new developments. A few weeks later Facebook called, and it became

clear that the way for our team to have the biggest impact was to work together.

So we’re excited to announce that we’ll be making the journey to California to

join Facebook!

Gowalla, as a service, will be winding down at the end of January. We plan to

provide an easy way to export your Passport data, your Stamp and Pin data (along

with your legacy Item data), and your photos as well. Facebook is not acquiring

Gowalla’s user data.


Facebook is not accquiring users data from Gowalla, however you can delete your

user data as it might be used without your permission.

The Social Networking Gaint, Facebook has acquired location sharing service

Gowalla.This News came yesterday and was first reported by CNN.


The biggest question arises here that Why facebook has acquired Gowalla, well

the answer is simple they want complete team of Gowalla to focus on facebook's

most awaited feature Timeline, which will be launching soon.However it is quite

unclear that how Gowalla team can help facebook to booast its Timeline feature.


Note that this news came as rumour and most and Facebook refuses to comment on

the deal.
