Understanding the rules of engagement

Being a blogger makes you an online publisher because you provide content and traffic for advertisers to promote their products. We have lots of advertising agency online, we have: propellerads, pop-ads, google ads etc. But I want to believe the most profitable ads agency is google ads.


Google advertises on different type of content like website or blog, videos on YouTube and apps which is handled by Admob. The rest are handled by Adsense. All have their individual policies which is expedient one study if one is expected to continue to earn through ads. Moreover, there are so many ways to earn as a blogger outside google ads. One could do affiliate marketing and we have lots of them around like: markethealth, which is very related to our niche and for my folks in Nigeria, you could consider Jumia or Konga affiliate marketing. You could also earn by selling products and services like our TCM app that gives one the opportunities to buy TCM products online but unfortunately, it’s been yanked off playstote because of what we want to talk about but we have a second chance to rectify the violations then it would be up again. You could also earn by seminars if what you provide is good stuff, Facebook also started rewarding folks posting videos on the Fan pages.
Google which happens to be the most popular way to earn for bloggers, rewards ones passions by placing ads on your content as long as ones content could provide traffic. For YouTube Adsense, one should be able to provided a total view of 10,000 (10k), blogger Adsense which is the most popular should provided at least 17-30 post on there blog, website on a paid hosting server could get one started immediately because I could remember our first and second website start receiving ads almost immediately as long as one integrates the ads code to the website . Then the last but not the least is Admob which get you started almost immediately like the website. The Admob shows different type of ads. The banner ads which is sometimes shown below or above the game or the app one uses. Well, we have not got to policy violations but permit me to just mention this one. In Admob, one is given the privilege to place ads where ever one feels like but if one places a banner ad to interrupt the flow of the game or app, it becomes a deceptive ad and it’s a policy violation that could lead to consequences. Though we might not be able to discuss all of google’s ad policy, but you could check it up here. We have the interstitial ads which covers the screen and the video ads which plays videos in between games or app. Some games gives an opportunity to earn game bonus if one is willing to view the video. I want to believe it's the most rewarding Admob ads.
Some of us as bloggers don’t understand how the ads agency works especially the google ads. We don’t often open the google Adsense account. Even if we did, we don’t have the time to understand the simple acronyms on the account like: CPC (cost per click), CTR (click through rate), CPM (Cost per 1000 impressions). We don’t understand these ratios. Many give up on blogging because as bloggers, we concentrate on our content and think of something to give our viewers to keep them glued to our blog and consequently increase our traffic. All of a sudden it just come bursting in our face that all we earned from google ads is gone for one policy violation. It discourages but it’s important one understand the rules of engagement to keep earning. Many does self clicks just because the see their not earning as expected but a good man once told me, pursue success in business then wealth would follow. We are all in the journey of pursuing success, we have seen our ups and down, loss 3 apps, made few mistakes, criticized as a clickbait, shooed away while trying to get content but we are still here. Just a word of encouragement to must of our bloggers, “keep pushing even if your account gets banned, start again”.

Boyhood and Fatherhood

  Today being Father’s Day the 18th of June 2023, we have heard a lot about who indeed a father is? My friend trying to define who a father is, she answered in her words and I quote: tomorrow is for Men that have the courage to stay and carry responsibility of a child.  Not for baby dads who can only show penis as manhood   We really do not understand what is going on to the men of our generation, they are no longer around to witness the development of their children anymore. This post is really not focused on that but on what transforms a boy from a boy to a Man. We could gather from our little findings that what transform boys to fathers is their ability to take responsibilities. I want to believe that most of the men find themselves into Fatherhood without adequate preparation so the best and the easiest way out of the situation is to run away. Many of the boys got no sex education and are not just equip on how to handle responsibilities or when to prepare for responsibilities. To s

CB1 Receptor and Homeostasis

 We had discussed cannabinoid in a lot of our post and now we are visiting it in homeostasis. The importance of it (cannabinoid) cannot be over emphasized, one of our first blog was on hemp seed oil and we have profer CBD for fibromyalgia and also talked about it as a possible remedy for the Novel COVID-19 virus pandemic that took the world by storm. Now we want to discuss homeostasis. Before I continue, I would like to say why I chose to blog on it. I recently travelled to a region of different weather condition, nevertheless, the theme of this blog is focus on Nigeria so don't worry my Nigerian friends, we shall still talk about alternative health for that demography and FYI, homeostasis is applicable to everyone irrespective of your region. In Nigeria, we are used to having air-condition and we condition the temperature to 16-18 degree Celsius. I now found myself in an environment where I have to live in a temperature that is -4 or less degree Celsius. I remember in Nigeria w

Medical Side Effect

 When I think about this practice, my thoughts goes back to the first invasion of smallpox to the world. Many people believe that the survival of smallpox becomes immune to the sickness, so there was a practice  then called viriology.  The process of infecting people with the small pox virus and trying to cure it so they can stay immune to smallpox.  This practice left most of their survivals blind but a good number survived it until Edward Jenner discovered that victims infected with cowpox are naturally immune to smallpox which brought about the study and practice of immunology.  Cowpox was not just a protection from smallpox, but was also communicable with the ability to transmit from one person to the other given it a wide protection from small pox, till it was announced that smallpox had been completely eradicated from the world. Irrespective of the fact that it prevented smallpox, it still leavse its victims with symptoms of fever, headache, malaise, vomiting etc. These effects (
