Search Engine Optimization

In this blog I will briefly describe the concept of Search Engine Optimization, and how this can help a website to be noticed.

Optimizing a website to be found by search engines is one of the most important things that can be done for a website. These days when someone wants to find something on the Internet most of the time they will use a search engine such as Google, or Yahoo. From there, they will type in several key words that describe what they are looking for. If your website isn’t one of the sites that comes up on the first page of the search most of the time you are out of luck, because most people don’t go past the first page or two of search results.

There are a couple of things that can be done to help your site be found. If you have some money, you can pay to be a “sponsored link”, or pay per click (PPC) link. For instance if you search basketball shoes in Google the first few links that come up are sponsored links meaning that those websites will pay money to Google whenever they are clicked on. The downside to these sponsored links is that people are becoming more and more Internet savvy, some people skip past the sponsored links looking for the more “organic search results“.

The alternative to paying for sponsored links is of course being that organic search result, meaning that you truly have the best relevance according to what the search parameters are. This method is cheaper monetarily, but much more time consuming, it can be a full time job to keep a website near the top of a search list. This method involves understanding how search engines work and modifying the content and HTML code of your website so that your website will come up near the top of a search. This process involves a lot of work, from thinking of all the possible keywords that your website might be under, all the way to knowing where to put those words in the code and content of your site. But, if your site is one of the top organic search results all the work will be worth it.

In doing all of this, you must be careful not to stuff your site with “keywords” (keyword stuffing) that may not be relevant to the topic of your website, or spamdexing. Search engines put a lot of effort into finding sites that abuse the system in this way, and will remove them from all searches. If you aren’t in the search engine at all, you will never be found, so don’t cheat!

About Andy Wadman

Andy Wadman

Andy Wadman

My name is Andy Wadman, I am currently 22, and living in Plymouth, Minnesota. I am a relatively new addition to OAC, but I will get to that shortly

I was born and raised in St. Paul then Eden Prairie Minnesota. My family and I moved to Plano, Texas when I was in middle school. While in Plano I met one of my current best friends Kevin Parks, who is another big part of OAC. After I finished middle school I moved back to Minnesota, to a city called Plymouth where I went to Wayzata High School. I graduated from high school in 2004 and had plans to attend the University of St. Thomas, in St. Paul.

I started school at St. Thomas in the fall of 2004. At first I didn’t know what I wanted to major in, so I took a lot of general courses. I took a couple of marketing classes, and I really started to get interested in the material that I was learning. So, early in my Junior year I declared marketing to be my major. Through my time in the business school at St. Thomas I had many opportunities to apply what I was learning by working with real businesses. One such opportunity was a management project with a restaurant called Fabulous Ferns. Another opportunity i had was a marketing project with the Minnesota Thunder, a professional soccer team. But the most interesting project was with Otto Bock, the number one prosthetic leg maker in the world. With a group, I did market research for Otto Bock and their industry, we also did other difficult marketing tasks for them. I was able to graduate from St. Thomas in exactly 4 years, as planned, with a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing.

I started my job search a little while before I graduated, and was still looking for the right job into the summer. Then one day Kevin Parks called and said he might have a marketing job for me with a start up company called own a coder. I was really interested and with in a week I went to Texas to check it out. I met many of the key people in the company and a few days later, on Friday, July 18th 2008, I became the first official employee of OAC!

I am currently working full time from Minnesota, but I’m in constant contact with everyone working in Texas to get this company up and running. My roles include anything dealing with marketing and sales. I have also taken up working on the legal logistics of starting this company. And recently Tony has expressed his need for me to take up more of a management role in the company as he works on keeping the company financially afloat.

I am psyched to be working with this company, and I’m excited to see what the future brings for OAC.

The Best Job for Stay at Home Moms

The online signature for our business vision is V123X2020, which means one website, two countries and three million jobs by the year 2020. The one website is ownacoder.com and the two countries are Vietnam and the United States.

Our mission is to give you more time, more power and greater opportunity for success through the use of an offshore professional doing time consuming tasks for you, while you sleep, to achieve your goals.

Friday the 18th of July 2008 was day one for our journey when we first had a full-time employee in the USA. By the end of this journey, in the year 2020, we should have created more than three million jobs. These include a million jobs for the offshore professional living in Vietnam, a million jobs for the American mom, and an additional one million jobs for professionals, which include executives, managers, programmers, designers and other positions.

An Ideal job for a stay-at-home mom should not cause more stress than already produced, and should also be a hobby that creates wealth. Yes, the best job for stay-at-home mom is the one that can put more bacon on the table in addition to what dad can, and maybe even more than him. How could this be? Read on.

Bacon is a cut of meat taken from the sides, belly, or back of a pig that has been cured, smoked, or both. One way to put bacon on the table is in fact working as a pig farmer. For modern moms, try velgie farming!

Outsourcing is contracting with another company or person to do a particular function. Offshoring is to do outsourcing overseas or in a separate country. At ownacoder.com, owning an elgi is having a lifetime relationship with an offshore worker, especially before college graduation. An elgi who lives in Vietnam is called a velgie. Raising a velgie means getting a college student in Vietnam to trust his future in the hands of his holder in the west, and, through ownacoder.com, allow his skills to be sold and thus owned in the open market across the globe.

A farmer is someone with an ownership interest in crops or livestock, and who provides land or management in their production. Someone who has ownership interest, and provides facilities or management in the production of velgies is also called a farmer. However this ‘farmer’ does not produce crops nor livestock, but rather human capital, specifically, in Vietnam. Velgie farming does not require land but a computer with internet connection.

Velgie farming should not be a job in the traditional sense of the word. A velgie farmer does not answer to any boss. Velgies are the employees and velgie farmers are the employers. Velgie farming is not a job. It is a hobby that generates cash, possibly a lot of it. Velgies are cash crops. How is it so? Read on.

It takes a village to raise a child. To raise a velgie, it takes more than just a village. To enable velgie farming you must first have a velgie homestead, which is a piece of real estate on the web where a velgie places his career portfolio. The person who owns this real estate is called a velgie landowner.

Velgies must be able to read and write English, however, in the earliest years of their career, they do not speak English well. Most velgies would prefer to be brought up by an American mom, herein referred to as a velgie mom. A velgie mom may raise several velgies. Without an agent such as a velgie mom, the velgie is not worth as much to a velgie user. A velgie mom can represent and speak out for the velgie, especially to the end velgie user.

The person who brings a velgie to the market is called a velgie provider. This person may be the one who just manages other providers.

The person who pays for a permanent use of a velgie is called a velgie holder. A velgie holder may own several velgies. You must carry a document called velgie title in order to prove that you own a velgie. All velgie titles are listed in the velgie registry. A velgie title goes with one and only one velgie.

The person or company that employs velgies is called a velgie user. The velgie holder has the right to decide who may be in control of the velgie for which duration of time. The person who manages velgies and velgie users is called a velgie manager. This person should preferably have experience doing project management.

The person or company that places an ad at a velgie homestead is called a velgie advertiser. Advertisers love to place their ads on velgie homesteads because the target audience includes all types of people with serious income: velgie landowners, velgie holders, velgie providers, velgie users, and last but not least, velgie moms.

In general, velgie landowners, velgie moms, and such people are collectively called velgie farmers. Anyone who has an ownership interest in velgies and provides land or management in their production is called a velgie farmer. Velgie users and velgie managers are not velgie farmers.

Velgie moms do not have added stress because they only speak for their velgies; they are not blamed for the lack of a quality product produced by the velgie, should the situation exist. Velgie farming is a good job for stay-at-home moms because it is a job free of stress.

What are velgies good for? Velgies are offshore people who are trained to carry out activities such as computer programming, web design, system analysis, software testing, research, etc. but, are generally, five to ten times less expensive than their counterparts in the USA.

Pairing up the American mom with the velgie is a great way double their value in the marketplace. Such a journey of two is an expression of social network.

The website that has all the functionality required to manage roles and responsibilities as suggested above is called a velgie system. Through financial incentives and otherwise, a good velgie system must always promote greater participation by everyone. Those who are outside want to join. Those who are inside want to do more.

The key difference between the velgie system and many other social networking system is that our social network does not just pay the bills, but also helps create family wealth. Wealth is what others want to pay for and most people would love to pay for it in order to control the least expensive offshore workforce.

Velgie users do not need to speak the Vietnamese language in order to take full advantage of an offshore professional doing time consuming tasks for you, while you sleep, to achieve your goals. Requirements for work, specified in the form of user stories, can be written in English, and the velgie system will translate them to help the velgie quickly understand what the customer expects.

A velgie mom may be able to put more bacon on the table than what can be provided by dad. That is because there is no limit as to how many velgies a mom can raise. Moreover, the mom may also use one of these velgies to raise even more velgies. In velgie farming, your crops are capable of handling other crops for you. This is what makes velgie farming more fruitful than other types of farming, and more rewarding than working in a traditional job, which is normally stressful.

A parent is now considering buying a velgie for his daughter who is a junior in high school. A high school student who owns a velgie will look at the world in a totally different light (must be 18 to own). As jobs move out of the country at an alarming rate, college students must now learn how to manage workers from faraway places. Owning a velgie provides an amazing educational experience.

If you decide that you do not want to deal with a velgie anymore, you can always put that velgie up for rent or even for sale. If a velgie is no longer able to work for you, the website ownacoder.com will provide the holder with another velgie. This is the difference between offshoring through ownacoder.com and other offshoring options such as India and Russia.

How should you raise a velgie? How should you raise your child? Answers to both questions are quite similar. The difference between a velgie and a child is that the child is not required to share the revenue created through business, and the social network, but a velgie is.

V123X2020: Our vision of one website, two countries and three million jobs by the year 2020 means a million jobs for Vietnam, a million jobs for the American mom, and a million new jobs for various professionals. Our mission is to give you more time, more power and greater opportunity for success through the use of an offshore professional doing time consuming tasks for you, while you sleep, to achieve your goals. Manage or be employed, you decide.

Day One at Ownacoder.com

If day one for a business is when it first has a full-time employee then for us Friday the 18th of July 2008 was it. Otherwise, without a full-time employee, it is just a part-time and not a bona fide business. This article is not about what happened on the first day at Ownacoder.com but it rather is about all the key milestones established prior to that day. This writing is indeed a milestone of sorts.

The most important milestone occurred prior to day one at Ownacoder.com was, on the 6th of October 2004, when the website Tapsu.com took hold with a steady stream of signups. Its domain name is derived from the phrase, tập sự, which in Vietnamese literally means, on probation. On the 11th of January 2007, Vietnam became the 150th member of the World Trade Organization. This event was the reason why tapsu.com changes its name to become Danhthieptoi.com. The second domain name is derived from the phrase, danh thiếp tôi, pronounced as zahn thiep toit, which in Vietnamese means, my business card.

Danhthieptoi.com is the oldest social networking website in Vietnam with members in all provinces and in every district of each province. Each member has a house gate and most show their real name and the actual date of birth on their gate. Here you can post either a private message to the gate owner or a private note about the gate owner. When you go to a house gate, you can see the most recent exchange made between you and the gate owner over time. When you go to your own house gate, you can see the latest messages written to you by other members. The author cannot further revise a gate message 24 hours after message creation. This functionality turns our house gates into a reputation system of sorts. Don’t utter your promise to me, my love, unless you’re willing to make it an inerasable posting on my house gate.

Any member at Danhthieptoi.com can create a lounge, which works like a private forum. The creator of the lounge can of course add new members. Any member can add or remove another member. Removal of lounge creator is not possible. Unlike a typical forum system where most members cannot create a new forum without being part of the administration, permission is not required in order to create a new lounge at Danhthieptoi.com.

What makes Danhthieptoi.com different from all other social networking websites is that both its user interface and its own markup tags are exclusively based on the Greater Vietnamese Language (GVL), known to its members as Đại Việt Ngữ. Click here for elaboration of a sample issue on GVL. GVL is a way for the Vietnamese to facilitate concise exchanges among themselves without abusive use of way too many foreign terms not easily grasped by the average Vietnamese white-collar worker. GVL is considered an irrelevant, academic exercise until it is deemed necessary to support Danhthieptoi.com’s vision, i.e. Chất xám Việt một Triệu lần, which literally means, the Vietnamese gray matter but a million times. The mission for this vision is to provide the American economy with a million Vietnamese offshore professionals. GVL is needed to ensure both effectiveness and efficiency at work for the Vietnamese workforce. Otherwise too much time would be spent on dissecting nomenclature instead of carrying out the work as specified in English by the overseas customer.

However, the average American customer will not remember how to spell Danhthieptoi.com and they will not care to learn how to tackle the Vietnamese user interface there. For that, on June 11th, 2008, the domain name, Ownacoder.com, was created as a friendlier way to present the Vietnamese workforce. Revised to suite the American, the vision statement is abbreviated by an eight-character token: V123X2020 (pronounced as Vision-1-2-3-by-2020), which stands for one website, two countries, and three million new jobs by the year 2020. The one website is Ownacoder.com. Its mission is to give the average American more time, more power and a better opportunity for success. This is possible through the use of an educated professional in Vietnam doing time-consuming tasks for you, while you sleep, to achieve your goals. This offshore help is affordable even to a college student. For example, an entry-level web programmer is less than two thousand dollars for the entire year, counting from the date of membership activation, see Get Started. Using innovative outsourcing technology as provided by Ownacoder.com to turn the average American into professionals with unremarkable offshoring skills should hopefullly generate more than three million new jobs in the USA by the year 2020.

Nine days later, on June 20th, 2008, Kevin Parks joined Ownacoder.com as one of the very first investors. One of his first contributions was to introduce Andy Wadman, one of his friends from the middle-school years, to the many opportunities available at Ownacoder.com. Within a month, Andy started working full time for us and effectively make Friday the 18th of July 2008 as day one for our business at Ownacoder.com.

Hello to all from Andy

Hi, I’m Andy Wadman. I am a recent graduate of the University of St. Thomas, my degree is in marketing. I currently live in Minnesota, but I am planning on moving to Texas to work with Tony Minh Duy, and be closer to the business. As of July 18th 2008 I have officially accepted the offer to work for ownacoder.com.  I am very excited for the next couple of months to see ownacoder.com grow!

What is an identity? What is a persona? What is a role?

Identity is a condition or character as to who a person or what a thing is. For a person, identity is “a constant that cannot change. In the past it was validated by my fingerprints, today it is validated by my DNA.”

Identity theft is a term used to refer to fraud that involves stealing money or getting other benefits by pretending to be someone else. The term is relatively new and is actually a misnomer, since it is not inherently possible to steal an identity, only to use it. The person whose identity is used can suffer various consequences when they are held responsible for the perpetrator’s actions. In many countries specific laws make it a crime to use another person’s identity for personal gain.

A persona, in everyday usage of the word, is a social role or a character played by an actor. It is the mask or façade presented to satisfy the demands of the situation or the environment and not representing the inner personality of the individual. Persona is “an application of a person’s identity to a broad situation.” You have one and only one identity everywhere but you play an office persona at work and a parenting persona at home.

A social role, or simply, a role, is “a specific application within a persona.” It is a set of connected behaviors, rights and obligations as conceptualized by actors in a social situation. It is mostly defined as an expected behavior in a given individual social status and social position. At home, in parenting persona, you may play the role of a teacher as well as that of a friend. At work, in your office persona, you may play the role of a manager, an employee.

Behaviors, rights and obligations are further explained in the following paragraphs.

An obligation is a requirement to take some course of action as bound by a social, legal, or moral tie.

The behavior of a system is what it does. It is the processes executed or supported by a system. Behavior or behaviour refers to the actions or reactions of an organism, usually in relation to the environment. Behavior can be conscious or unconscious, overt or covert, and voluntary or involuntary. In animals, behavior is controlled by the endocrine system and the nervous system. The complexity of the behavior of an organism is related to the complexity of its nervous system. Generally, organisms with complex nervous systems have a greater capacity to learn new responses and thus adjust their behavior. Human behavior (and that of other organisms and mechanisms) can be common, unusual, acceptable, or unacceptable. Humans evaluate the acceptability of behavior using social norms and regulate behavior by means of social control.

In the jurisprudence and the law, a right is the legal or moral entitlement to do or refrain from doing something, or to obtain or refrain from obtaining an action, thing or recognition in civil society. Rights serve as rules of interaction between people, and, as such, they place constraints and obligations upon the actions of individuals or groups (for example, if one has a right to life, this means that others do not have the liberty to kill him).

Most modern conceptions of rights are universalist and egalitarian — in other words, equal rights are granted to all people. There are two main modern conceptions of rights: on the one hand, the idea of natural rights holds that there is a certain list of rights enshrined in nature that cannot be legitimately modified by any human power.
