Ah Christmas, time to give, time to receive and time to launch a new theme! First of all, Merry Christmas, I hope you had a superb time with your family and friends. This is probably one of the best Christmas ever, I got a cool RC helicopter from my dad. I still don’t know how to fly it properly but it’s still the best. I’ll post a video soon.
Anyway, without further ado – welcome to the new Carl Ocab dot com!
Pause for a minute. Have a look at the beauty and oh for those feed subscribers, just click here.
The theme isn’t as sleek as it looks. There maybe bugs crawling out there, so please help me find them and spray them out.
I’ve changed a lot of things from the old design, here is a recap:
- A wider design to accumulate all the new features and to give more space for the…
Christmas = New Design!
No post for the last 6 days? There should be something going on.
Yes there is, and it’s not only one but I’ve been working on two major projects. I’m planning to launch them both exactly this Christmas. That’s 3 days wait so don’t get bored yet because it’s already knocking on your door.
Back to the second announcement - I’m a little bit tired of this current design. It looks scrunched up, the advertisements are taking over so for the second major project I got a custom blog design! Not only that, my designer also came up with a unique logo that truly describes what this blog is all about.
And Here It Is
What we’ve done:
- As you can see, the logo’s main structure is that of an atom with the nucleus replaced by a dollar sign. Making money online is not by chance or luck it should be studied scientifically down to every…
I Quit Blogging…
For just 2 weeks :-P
Honestly, you won’t make money blogging - alone. There are so many things that you can do that will make you more money with less work, but nevertheless I’ll always stay here and keep sharing my experiences and theories on marketing and stuff.
For those curious cats out there, here’s a sneak peak to what I’m working on:
I won’t tell the whole story here, let the screenshot tell. I promise you, it’s not just another make money online product. No hype nor b.s.
By the way special thanks to this week’s exceptional guest bloggers Dean, Siyab, Chris and Monika. You’ve made this blog active and alive with your outstanding content.
Watch out, I’ll be back with more.

Actually, it was last week that the 4 books up there, which are my first books, were delivered by Amazon.com. That one book called “Influence” by Robert Cialdini came from a local bookstore here.
Here are the books (left to right). I’d really recommend that you get at least one of them:
- Words that Sell, revised and expanded edition by Richard Bayan
- The Great Formula: for Creating Maximum Profit with Minimal Effort by Mark Joyner
- NLP: The New Technology of Achievement by NLP Comprehensive, Steve Andreas and Charles Faulkner
- Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion (Collins Business Essentials) by Robert B. Cialdini
- Hypnotic Writing: How to Seduce and Persuade Customers with Only Your Words by Joe Vitale
I’m currently reading Mark Joyner’s “The Great Formula.” Almost half done in under 2 days. After finishing the book, I won’t hesitate to give it a review. So far it’s the best book I’ve ever read, considering all those comic books and magazines ;-)

Wow time really flies so fast. It feels like I just posted last month’s welcome for the month of October and now I’m saying a Happy Halloween to you all. Blogging seems like a timemachine.
Anyway, we’ve worked hard last month so maybe it’s time for a little break. A little relax to appreciate what we have achieved.
October’s Blog Achievements
Note: The quoted lines are my last month’s goals.
1. Banners are all sold out! Someone is even reserved from one of our sidebar ads.
Reach 600+ feed subscribers
2. 50 subscribers short for my last month’s goal of 600 feed subscribers
Capture 1500+ newsletter subscribers
3. 250 subscribers short for the newsletter subscribers. I’m still in the 1250+ mark.
Do a guest post on Problogger, John Chow, Shoemoney and Entrepreneurs Journey
4. I haven’t done any guest post for Problogger, John Chow, Shoemoney and Entrepreneurs Journey, that’s one of the big reasons why I haven’t reached the targeted mark…

The other day when I posted my hypothesis on why websites’ pagerank dropped, I left TLA an email asking will they ever put the nofollow tag in their ads so I can continue to use them. Surprisingly they replied like a man under a rock, here’s the transcript of our emails:
Click here to continue →ME: “Will you ever consider putting the “nofollow” attribute in your text links so I can continue using TLA? I am worried about Google penalizing me for selling links that pass pagerank and link juice”
TLA: “No, we will not. Nofollow is for comment spam, not for advertisements.”
ME: “How about this:

Searchengineland is not Google. They are not the authority on the matter.”
ME: “Sure,
