With a profit margin of over 36%, has Apple built up a cash reserve of 29 billion dollars. Focus on high profit products as iPod and iPhone, is the key to the whole business model and the reason why Apple is sailing calmly through the recession. The stone hard margin hunting is a big reason why Apple stubbornly refused to embark on the rocket market for notebooks. On the computer side, however, has Mac lost something the past two years.

In April 2009, was it time for Apple to present the quarterly report. Compared with the same period in 2008, has the profit increased, but the sales of Mac declined. iPod reached just over 11 million of sold units. That who holds up the figures is the high demand for the iPod Touch. iPhone sold 3.79 million units. Both figures are higher than the market expected. In the case of sales for Mac, it was sold 2.2 million units, down by 3%. Timothy Cook,at Apple, said in connection with this quarterly report – We will make the best computers in the world, not most.

Happy reading!

That the links is what gives value to the sites and the increase in search engine rankings is probably not news to readers of this blog. Many have certainly experimented with internal links and tried to push the maximum forces to the main pages. One part of this has been to put no follow on links to sub pages that are not so important to appear high in Google for. But now, Google has put the foot down and changed the rules for internal no follow. Since no other blog seems to take up the subject, so here comes a small summary.

What mean do follow links?

A no follow link means that you do not give any force to a particular page as a link pointing to. This technology was originally created to protect the blogs that got a lot of comments of all types of visitors. More recently, it used by a lot of various SEO companies to sculpt PageRank. Maybe you did not want to give any force to the login page or contact us page, but rather to your web shop. Then, it has been effectively with internal no follow.

This is it technically:

Plain link: <a href=” http://www.sundream-estate.com/marbella-apartment.php”> Marbella apartment</ a>.

No follow link: <a rel=”nofollow” href=”http://www.exempel.com/”> questionable link </ a>

No follow previous:

Google has previously considered that the internal no follow links, PageRank can be spent on other sub. That is no longer.

No follow today.

With the new rules so, you should not have no follow internally in your site. You just are wasting your link force. If you have 10 internal links and 7 is no follow, so divided now 30% PageRank at the 3 common links. Previously, 100% of the PageRank went to the usual links. So now it is time to remove all no follow, the internal link power is wasted with using no follow.

Matt Cutts was there as usual, was the first to tell the news. So, have you changed your no follow or have you never had any? Personally, I will get a review of a number of pages that need to fix this.

GIMP is the open source – world’s answer to Photoshop. It is a complex image manipulation program full of functions and tools, and it is also completely free. You can download it for both Windows and Linux. The latest version is 2.6.6, and it contains many news.

I find an article of Six Revisions, which lists 10 websites with schools, guides and other articles with has to do with GIMP. Do you want to learn to master this great program in image editing, is this really good websites to begin with. If you think that GIMP is a bit too complex for your taste, are there a lot of other free image-editing programs. Two of my favorites are Paint.NET and Photoscape. They are both easy to use, have simple and logical interface and is also free.

GIMP stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program and was originally developed for Linux / Unix. It has however since several years been closed for Windows. GIMP is an enormously complex tools, and by that I mean that the learning threshold is relatively high, but above all that the program contains many and very good functions. You can very well compare GIMP with Photoshop.

That who probably is the most unaccustomed with GIMP is that the interface is different from the other of Windows programs, because it is was closed from Unix. But it is really no major differences, and once you come over the threshold, it is no problem. Once you start using GIMP, you will realize that it is an excellent tool for imaging, image editing and photo retouching. This article did found I in TkJ.

Everyone talks about SEO optimization. You must make an on-page, must have in-links, must have a blog, ect …. But one of the most important and easiest things have many people forgot. If you have not thought about before, it is high time to start doing it now. Make sure that the right keywords are in the URL of everyone of your article! Google, Yahoo and Microsoft are taking very good on the URL, and ranking your article better in Serp.

Say that your web page or blog is about Marbella. Then you’ll write a lot of articles on Marbella. Sample article titles like: “The best restaurants in Marbella, Five tips in Marbella for the summer” and ”Marbella history”

To improve your chances to be found in the search engines for the word Marbella is that they must include in your URL. We take the article entitled “Marbella history.” Your URL may look like this: http://www.sundream-estate.com/new-43-marbella-history.html As you can see is “/ Marbella-restaurants” the piece that you decide yourself when you write your article and here is the key word Marbella with which you are investing extra in order to be found by search engine, also the word restaurants get a good position. Working a lot to finding the right keywords to the URL; it is worth gold.

Tommy with TjK wrote this nice article. Search engines needs for find things on the web. For many surfers, there is only one search engine, and it is Google. The reason is so simply, that many do not know that there are other search engines. But it does, and many works for most users either as good or better than Google.

Which of the search engines Google, Yahoo and Bing do you like most? Most of us says Google safe, but the question is what you had responded in a blind test? This is where Blind Search comes into the picture. It is well emphasized that the service is mostly for fun, even if it is right interesting to see how different the three search engines hits.

Blind Search function easily. You fill in a search word in the box at the top of the site and click Search. Now, a search be made on the three search engines and displays results in three columns. You don’t know which of the column is respective which search engine. Select the results you think is best, and click on the bottom Vote for this search engine.

How was the result? Choose you the search engine that you have as favorites, or was it someone else who turned out to see better than the favorite?

According to the Swedish magazine PC Magazine will Microsoft soon be launching an early test version of a free antivirus (codenamed “Morro”). Right now it seems that the employees on the company are testing the program. The news tells us also they will compete with McAfee and Symantec.

For just a little while ago I read about a director in of one of the leading antivirus companies. He said, inter alias, that Microsoft’s attempt to break into the market. He claimed that he was not especially worried about the competition. The thing is that Microsoft has tried to come in to the antivirus and security market many times, but they have not made any significant impact. It seems that people do not trust the security program that comes from Microsoft … Recently said Microsoft that they will shut down Live OneCare from the June 30, 2009. And at the same time, it will launch a safety package that is completely free. The aim is to ensure that all users have a strong protection against harmful code, viruses, trojans, worms, spyware, etc.

A Microsoft spokesman said on Wednesday that the world’s biggest software maker is now testing an early version of the product with its own employees and that it will “soon” make a trial version available via its website.

I do not think that Microsoft will succeed especially well this time either. But I see clearly forward to test their free antivirus software. It will be interesting to see what Microsoft has to offer compared with the other free anti-viruses that are on the market. AVG and Avast, or why not new Panda Antivirus Cloud?

We will see what happens in future with Morro!

VeriSign, which is globally responsible for the domains during the .com and .net, has sent out statistics on the number of Internet domain names. Today there are over 183 million domain names registered! It is a part. I myself have about 10 pieces, I think.

The greatest is, of course .com. Most of us who have a small portfolio of domain names, holds well in all cases at least one under .com. That they are now very cheap to make it’s to. I remember when you had to sending a check for around 500 bucks to U.S. Internic for register a .com domain. It took well in all cases two weeks before you could start use it. Today, it takes a few minutes, and costs a few dollars.

Second place is held by China and their top-level domain .cn. It is a great country, and Internet user has exploded over the past years. It had been good if I could Chinese, then I had started a blog in that language. But my only contact with the language is all kung fu movies I have seen, and phrases like “You killed my master!” That will I not coming far with the …

It is followed by Germany (.de), United Kingdom (.uk) and Holland (.nl). Spain is not on the top 10 list, which can be explained by it for many years were difficult to register an .es domain. Nowadays, it is growing very quick and large, so maybe we can pinch one of the top positions ahead? This article did I found in TjK blog.
