Are you working on boosting your blog rankings? How can you find readers that become devoted to your blog? Learning how to write for the reader can be a challenge, but with the right amount of time and research you can create outstanding blog posts. Use this business blog advice to help you create a blog that people will gladly read.

Far too often we come across blog posts that are not written for the reader. The writer usually picks a keyword and creates a topic written to this keyword. You want to use the keyword to help guide you, not to dictate the entire article. Always write for the reader if you want to gain higher website traffic.

There are keywords that do not always read properly. You need to include them for SEO purposes, but you do not want the keywords to become confusing. Difficult keywords can be added to the address or different areas of a page instead of within several lines of content. When you are looking at the keywords, avoid consciously adding them to the content. The keywords should come to you naturally within the content as you write it.

The NFL season is officially done with after the Super Bowl game this Sunday Night and of course the the Winter X Games that were held at Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colorado just ended, but sports fans still have the Winter Olympics to keep them busy until the MLB begins their season this spring.


ESPN covers the Olympic Games, but I'm sure you’re very busy with other things in your life, so you probably don't have time to watch every event this year. Luckily for you, ESPN how has "Live" Streaming Events you can view from your own PC, iPad, Smartphone or tablet.

Instead of waiting until you get off work to go home and watch a recorded event, you can now watch 'Live" events anytime you want. You can watch your favorite Winter Olympic events while you are on your lunch break, stuck in traffic or while you’re sitting in a doctor's waiting room. If you missed the Winter X Games, though it isn't "Live," you can still watch highlights, clips and interviews online from the events.

In 1979, readers were engulfed in the one of the most guiltiest pleasure novels ever written - Flowers in the Attic, followed by three sequels and a prequel. Even teenagers became interested in the novel, though they most likely hid their copy under their mattress. Sadly, V.C. Andrews passed away just over twenty-seven years ago, and ever since then a ghost writer has taken over series. At first nobody knew who the writer was, but now it is public knowledge that author Andrew Neiderman is the ghost writer.

Unlike most readers my age, I didn't start reading V.C. Andrews until I was around twenty-years-old, when I bought a hardback copy of Flowers in the Attic (missing a few page though) at a thrift store. Shortly after, I was given my grandmother's (Sadly, she passed away in 2009.) V.C. Andrews collection, as she had lost all interest in the books. The collection was missing a few books, which I quickly bought the missing books at a book store and on eBay. I have continued to collect each new release, though I haven't read the most recent series'.

The newest novel, The Unwelcomed Child, was released last week, just a few weeks after television version of Flowers In the Attic broke rating records on Lifetime. After recently rereading Flowers in the Attic (here is my review for it), I became eagerly excited about reading The Unwelcomed Child, which is a stand-alone novel.

Similar to Flowers in the Attic, this tale has a young girl, Elle Edwards, living with her grandparents, but, no, she isn't being forced to hide in an attic. Elle's rebellious mother left her to be raised my Grandmother Myra and Grandfather Prescott. She's doesn't know much about her father, except for the fact he had raped her mother, resulting in her conception.

Grandmother Myra is very religious and believes because of her daughter's sinful life, Elle was born without a soul. She doesn't want Elle to be influenced by the wicked ways of the world and has sheltered her from everything. Elle doesn't attend public school, but instead she is home schooled. She isn't allowed to listen to any current music and is only allowed to watch television programs that her grandparents approve of.

Charlie's Angels: Season 1

Review:

Arriving on DVD today from Mill Creek Entertainment is Charlie's Angels:Season One starring Kate Jackson, Farrah Fawcett and Jaclyn Smith as the three original angels.

The series ran from 1976-1981 with a total of 110, but has been in syndication ever since. It was remade into feature films in the early 2000s starring Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu. ABC remade the series in 2011 to horrible reviews and was canceled after four episodes.

The original Charlie's Angels didn't exactly get a warm welcoming from critics, but it became popular with viewers. The series follows Sabrina Duncan (played by Kate Jackson), Kelly Garrett (played by Jaclyn Smith) and Jill Munroe (played the late Farrah Fawcett), all of whom have recently graduated police academy, but this is the 70s and they're basically stuck on desk duty that is until Charlie enters their lives.

Sabrina, Kelly and Jill leave the police force to work at the Charles Townsend Agency as private investigators. Though Charlie's voice is only heard through a speaker phone, John Bosley is the one who assigns them the cases.


The episodes on the 4-disc set are:

I guess you can say I was an anti-cell phone person until I received a prepaid cell phone for Christmas in 2012. I've never cared much for talking on a phone, but a cell phone does come in handy when there is an emergency or you need to ask someone a quick question. I even find myself texting more often than I do calling someone.

When I first activated my cell phone, I was instantly given a phone number, which of course the first three numbers were my area code. I'm more than fine by having an area code as my cell number, but there some people, especially those who travel, who don't want an area code attached to their number.

Businessman and women, lawyers, agents, etc, have to travel around the world all year long, but there are times when they have to be at a business meeting on the other side of the country. There is no such thing as a Superman or Supergirl, so you can't just fly there in a minute, but instead you  can use your cell phone, iPad or Tablet to virtually attend the meeting.

When doing this, you'll need a virtual phone number!

Advantages of a business virtual phone number are:

• Save Money On Your Phone Account
• Establish a Virtual Office Anywhere Around the World
• Quickly Manage Incoming Business Calls
• Phone Calls Will Be Forward To Wherever You Are Currently Located.

At the end of every year, I'm sure many people hope for the best for the new year, well at least I do, but it seems no matter what plans or hopes you have, something always goes wrong. Between a broken tooth, the flu bug and sewer drain problems, the year 2014 is on a rocky start. Despite a few setbacks, I have been able to exercise daily since December 26th, then I started the new P90X 3 workout program on the 31st. I'll be starting Phase 2 tomorrow.

I've been reading up a storm this month, well I'm partly attempting to read a few books from my TBR pile, but mostly I'm reading books sent to me to review. I read Flowers in the Attic by V.C. Andrews, which is the second time I have read the novel. Of course, I watched the Lifetime's remake, which I thought was better than the 1987's version, but it felt too much like a made-for-TV movie (otherwise silly). I just finished reading The Unwelcomed Child by V.C. Andrews (well the ghostwriter) and I'm planning on writing the review today.

Last year, I went through my large collection of books and I donate several boxes and bags full of paperbacks and hardbacks to the Salvation Army. You would think I would have more room, but since then I have either received more books to review or have picked up a few books from the thrift stores, though I don't buy as many as I use to.

My most recent thrift store buys are:

Review:

Arriving on Blu-ray and DVD on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 is the true story about the WikiLeaks scandal, titled The Fifth Estate, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as the WikiLeaks' rebel leader. Co-starring in this high-tech thriller is Daniel Bruhl, Stanley Tucci and Laura Linney. Bonus Features include The Submission Platform - Enter the room where the secrets are kept and see it come to life, from first inspiration, through filming and beyond; In-Camera Graphics - Watch electronic words move off the screen and into the real world; Scoring Secrets - Experience the full range of musical styles in composer Carter Burwell's thrilling soundscape for the movie; and Trailers and TV Spots.

I'm almost positive everyone has heard about the WikiLeaks scandal on the news in 2010, which the topic is still discussed today in newspapers, magazines and blogs. Since then, there have been several books published on it and there has been one Hollywood feature film The 5th Estate was quietly released to theaters last October. The film is based on two books, Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange and the World's Most Dangerous Website by Daniel Domscheit-Berg and WikiLeaks: Inside Julian Assange's War on Secrecy by David Leigh and Luke Harding.

I only saw the movie advertise on television a couple of times and the only the thing that looked remotely interesting about it was the fact Benedict Cumberbatch from Sherlock Holmes and Star Trek Into Darkness was starring it as the WikiLeaks' founder Julian Assange. I had completely forgotten about the film until I had a chance to review an early copy of the Blu-ray Combo Pack.
