Certain pockets of the country boast some of the highest housing prices in the world. For years, Toronto and Vancouver have been the most expensive Canadian cities to live in. For example, the average price of a home in Toronto hit a record-high in May 2013 at $542,174.

For months, analysts have sounded the alarm over real estate prices in Canada and have said a correction in the housing market is yet to come. With a supposedly artificial inflation in housing prices, the question begs: Will there ever be an affordable housing market in this country?

Many Canadians, particularly in the larger cities, are holding off on owning property. Rental rates have skyrocketed over the past two years, as wary consumers wait for the economy to stabilize. But the truth is rental prices in Canada have also risen dramatically and affordable housing is hard to find. For example: In Toronto, the monthly rent on a standard 1-bedroom apartment can cost you anywhere from $900 to $1400 per month. However, a 1-bedroom flat isn’t suitable for, say, a family of 4 – which may require 3 bedrooms. The price of a standard 3-bedroom apartment ranges between $1700 – $2500 per month.

Sometimes, these prices are barely affordable for young, single professionals with a 50K/year income. So imagine the lack of affordability for low-income families or senior citizens. And with monthly rental rates so high, it becomes nearly impossible to save any money for future home ownership. It is these scenarios that have market analysts, city planners and many Canadians worried about the affordability of housing in this country.

The obvious solution to a housing crisis would be to build more affordable residences. But that’s a tough battle that big, powerful developers always seem to win. Experts say inclusionary planning is key, whereby city planners require private developers to include a percentage of affordable housing in their residential developments. Although the idea is great in theory, it is often tough to enforce inclusionary planning in practice.

In Ontario, for example, matters and applications regarding planning are dealt with by the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). This agency is an arms-length provincial body. But there are reports that the board is often biased toward rich development companies looking to build housing in Ontario’s major cities.  บริษัทรับสร้างบ้าน  Ultimately, these developers are able to avoid the inclusionary zoning requirement – leaving the issue of affordable housing unresolved.

With brand new housing developments built every year across the country, city planners say inclusionary zoning is the most effective way to achieve affordability. Zoning requirements are initiatives that can be controlled, whereas a correction in the markets or a stabilization of the economy are unpredictable factors.

Many of the wonderful positives you get from DIY House Building is all the fun quirky features you can add right into your house. Unique characteristics you can build adding excitement and mystic to your place. Lots of fun. And here are 3 examples to get you started…

1. Shelves and Hiding Spaces Set in Walls – Instead of building shelves or purchasing them and nail them into the wall, why not consider building small shelves right into your walls during the DIY house building process before adding on the interior sheet rock, paneling or pine boards. รับสร้างบ้านสระบุรี

All you have to do is use small pieces of left over 2 x 4’s that you will have from building and make shelves right into your house framing. You might want to do this to interior walls not the walls guarding you from the outside temperatures where you need maximum insulation.

Of course insulating the wall afterward might require a little more work with handling and cutting insulation panels but the fun and uniqueness of having shelves like this for the rest of your life is worth the little extra time. You could make little Nick Knack or shoe shelves.

2. Secret Rooms – Remember those movies that have revolving doors and secret chambers? Well, you can DIY (do it yourself) house build a small room attached to your house and make a door that looks like the wall that leads into your secret room. Or you could hide the door by covering that section of wall with a decorative blanket or ornate rug or even make the door into a rotating book shelf. You can even use a secret room like this to hide your survival food stores if you are into survival or would like a more secure place for your valuable or precious items.

3. Ceilings- When you DIY house build you can tailor your house as unique as you feel including a variety Ceiling and roof designs. For instance you could make one roof section with a 5 degree slant and another with cathedral ceilings.

This is a subject that has caused great confusion, argument and late night debate amongst SEOs, bloggers and internet marketers. Having witnessed at first hand how a big SEO agency rips off clients by insisting on pointless on-site changes, here is my take on SEO best practices with WordPress.

SEO, like football, is quite a beautifully simple game.

1. Create quality content
2. Engage in communication and relationships with others in your niche both directly and through social media
3. Reach out to other sites with guest posts and ideas of collaborations with a view tosecuring incoming links
4. Promote your site and articles with social media, and maybe a tiny bit of web 2.0 and directories, etc., (don’t spend too much time on this)
5. Go back to creating quality content

It really is as simple as that. Read this quote from Google’s Matt Cutts

I get a lot of calls from attorneys who understand the importance of a search engine optimization campaign for their law firms, but have been burned many times in the past by SEO companies who overcharged and under-delivered. By the time these lawyers contact me, they are understandably skeptical of the whole industry and of anyone’s ability to get them placed high in the search returns. These attorneys have come to view SEO as risky and are looking for ways to minimize the chance of making another fruitless online marketing investment. Usually, an attorney’s gut instinct is to spend less on shorter SEO programs in order to “test” a new company. But that’s just another risky investment. Below are 5 ways I believe attorneys can mitigate the financial risk involved with investing in an SEO program.

Sorry. Real SEO is not cheap, fast, or easy. If anyone tells you different, they are lying or just don’t know what they are talking about. It is a tedious and time consuming process that requires patience and consistency. Avoid programs that let you buy anything in bulk for “cheap”, like content and back links. And be suspicious of anything that is automated. Ask your potential account executive what’s going to be done, when, and who is going to do it (heck, even ask for employee names). This will help ensure that you’re not doing business with someone who is just going to buy their own cheap links and bulk content on your behalf. Your SEO company should know you – and you should know your SEO company. Make sure there is a customer service number and call a few times before you buy to make sure someone is always there to answer. Getting mixed up in anonymous link farms and other cheap SEO programs can get your law firm’s website penalized by the search engines and force you to start from scratch. THAT is never a good investment. รับทำ seo ราคาถูก

 

You would not hire a personal injury attorney to handle your divorce. You would not let an ear, nose and throat doctor perform your ankle surgery. This is because you recognize that most professions have sub specialties. SEO is no different. “Niche” SEO companies are more likely to be constantly monitoring your market, your keywords, and your potential clients. They are also more likely to already have in place rich, content specific networks of websites from which you can draw higher page rank. They should also already have the appropriate media you need to perform well in universal search. A niche SEO company is going to know exactly what to do and exactly where to do it far faster than a company that handles a wide swath of professions. And my experience has been that the lawyers who generally find themselves burned 2-3 times are the ones that have hired general SEO firms rather than looking for legal specific search engine optimization companies.

 

If you are about to get off the phone with a potential legal SEO company, and you find yourself asking for a written proposal, you’re probably not talking to the right company. I know this sounds totally contrary to everything you believe is right and good about business and the law, but it’s not. So why shouldn’t you ask for a written proposal? Because if you’ve just spent an hour or two of your time (which I know is pretty valuable) on the phone, you should not have to spend another hour or two down the road deciphering a proposal. A truly knowledgeable SEO consultant should leave you with no unanswered questions. Everything he or she discusses with you should be explained in a way that makes perfect sense. You should hang up the phone feeling far more educated than when you started the call. In fact, I don’t even provide written proposals anymore. If I am asked for one, I know I’ve missed something important in that attorney’s mind or failed to cover a topic in a way that was informative. If I am asked for a proposal, my response is always to ask what the attorney believes is still confusing – what would they like to see in a proposal that we have not covered or that is still not understood? I do this because I don’t want to waste any of your time – and if you remain confused, then I probably have. You should view this item in the same way you would within your own law firm. If you have set time aside to meet with a client and talk to them about their case, you would probably feel disappointed if they stood up and said, “Great. Now can you put all of that in writing?”Google is going to try to return the relevant content so that you don’t even have to think about SEO. Bare that in mind when talking to SEO companies.

Basic WordPress SEO best practices

Straight out of the box, here’s are a few “must do’s”

• Put keywords in your permalinks or enable “pretty permalinks” in Settings > Permalinks select Custom Structure and type: /%postname%
• Choose a quality theme. Or rather don’t choose an old, crap theme. The default Twenty Ten or Twenty Eleven are just fine. I use Genesis, generally speaking premium themes are slightly better but they are by no means essential.
• Create Categories to group your blog posts and write meaningful descriptions of them in Posts > Categories
• Choose whether your site’s address will have a www or non-www. Why can’t Google work this one out themselves? Matt Cutts still says this is necessary. It’s 99% not likely to matter but if both www and non-www work in the address bar of the browser you’ll need to force one on to the other with.htaccess.
• Use an SEO plugin or your theme’s SEO controls to sort out your titles. The best SEO plugin is Yoast’s WordPress SEO. Page titles can be %%title%% – %%sitename%% and post titles are usually %%title%%. Although it really doesn’t matter that much. You can also set titles and meta descriptions individually with this plugin – more on that later.
• Create a Google XML Sitemap. This won’t help with rankings but it might help with getting indexed quickly
• Create a robots.txt. It should say “User-agent: * Sitemap: your-site.com/sitemap.xml ” if you created your sitemap with the Google XML Sitemap plugin.
• Register your site with Google Webmaster Tools (register sitemap), Yahoo! Site Explorer and Bing Webmaster Tools (if you can’t be bothered, just do Google Webmaster Tools).

So, if you’re just setting up a self-hosted WordPress.org blog I strongly suggest you do the above.

On-page WordPress SEO best practices Going forward, while you’re regularly writing awesome content, you’re going to have to employ some on-page SEO best practices.

• Put keywords in your blog post titles. So, “Electric Guitar Playing Styles”: good; “Tra-la-la-la-la, look how I handle my axe!”: bad.
• Add subheadings. Words in between <h2> and <h3> tags carry more importance than <p> tags, so split your post up with subheadings. It also looks better and helps the reader scan the article. Make sure the subheads are natural!
• Add images. Makes sure images have good filenames (eg. banana.jpg) and descriptive alt text (eg. alt=”partially pealed banana on table”).
• Word count/Density/Stuffing. Write at least 600 words on each blog post and include your keywords in the text naturally – don’t stuff them in. Write for humans, not for search engines.
• Link internally to your own pages when relevant.
• Don’t forget to link out to authority sites as well.

If you do the above, regularly write great content and engage in social media, link and relationship building, that is all you need to know about WordPress SEO.

The bad and the ugly OK, back to my experiences this week with the “SEO professionals” – you are not going to believe some of the things I heard them say. (Disclaimer: not all SEO professionals are bad but there are many that will waste your money with the following).

Here are some pieces of SEO advice that I have heard that are either complete rubbish or a waste of time. Remember, people get paid for trotting out this garbage…

• Adding meta keywords. This is a waste of time. They are not used as a ranking factor by Google.
• Avoid duplicate meta descriptions and titles. Certainly, don’t have the same meta descriptions on two different blog posts but for many blogs titles and descriptions are identical on category archive pages, and Google knows this. It’s OK.
• Google doesn’t like content below the fold. What?? I have heard it said, trust me. Google doesn’t like too many ads above the fold but long articles are fine. Sure it’s maybe better to split a 3,000-word article into three different 1,000-word articles, if that can be logically done.
• There should be an <h1> on every page. Wrong, I’ve tested this. I had my single blog posts as <h2>’s and changed them all to <h1>’s, re-indexed and zip, nothing, nada, no change!
• A site should be in validated HTML and CSS. Yes, but it’s not an SEO concern, it’s a usability one.

I could go on but you get the point. WordPress is the most ubiquitous CMS on the internet, it pays Google to understand its workings. Do the basic SEO best practices outlined above (the good, not the bad or the ugly) and you’ll be fine.

Gambling is big business in America. Every year, it earns the gaming industry billions of dollars in net revenue. We spend more money each year on legal gambling than on movie tickets, recorded music, theme parks, spectator sports, and video games combined. Lots of people gamble. But some people can’t stop – no matter what the cost.

Gambling addiction, also known as compulsive gambling, is a type of impulse-control disorder. Compulsive gamblers can’t control the impulse to gamble, even when they know their gambling is hurting themselves or their loved ones. Pathological gambling has been recognized as a major addiction illness, similar in many ways to the chemical dependency of cocaine.

What’s the real issue?

Problem gambling isn’t just a financial concern. It is an emotional problem that has financial consequences. If you pay all of a problem gambler’s debts, the person will still be a problem gambler. The frequency of a person’s gambling does not determine whether or not they have a gambling problem. Even if they go on only one gambling binge a year, they can still hurt themselves and their families. pussy888

Symptoms

The National Council on Problem Gambling recommends that gamblers who suspect they might have a problem, to ask themselves these questions:

1. Have you often gambled longer than you had planned?

2. Have you often gambled until your last dollar was gone?

3. Have thoughts of gambling have caused you to lose sleep?

4. Have you used your income or savings to gamble while letting bills go unpaid?

5. Have you made repeated, unsuccessful attempts to stop gambling?

6. Have you broken the law or considered breaking the law to finance your gambling?

7. Have you borrowed money to finance your gambling?

8. Have you felt depressed or suicidal because of your gambling losses?

9. Have you been remorseful after gambling?

10. Have you gambled to get money to meet your financial obligations?

If you answer yes to more than one question, you may have a problem. Get treatment.

How do you recognize the warning signals of gambling addiction? Gambling addiction is a person’s mania to part with large amount of money on games of chance. This kind of addiction leads to dire consequences. It will result in failed relationships with those that you love; it can bring about financial ruin; it will make you depress and desperate. A compulsive gambler cannot resist placing bets on any sports affairs.

They will continue gambling while they have the money to support this destructive activity. If they run out of funds, they will borrow and end up betting again. Gambling is purely a game of chance so most of the time you lose lots of money and you will end up scrounging for money in any way you can.

How will you know if a person is addicted to gambling or not? There are no outward signs that will show any indication that he or she is a compulsive gambler. You only have reason to suspect that a person is into gambling because you will notice that he or she easily let go of money with no qualms. There is no sure fire way of dealing with gambling addiction. 918kiss

It is essential that the person acknowledges that he or she has a gambling dilemma. Next the person must have the nerve to stand up against the addiction and more than ever will need the love and encouragement from loved ones. Compulsive gamblers can go to Gamblers Anonymous or GA which offers an opportunity for them to open up and admit their addiction. Gamblers can attend weekly meetings at GA and there are also support groups that they can turn.

If you are not really afraid or ashamed of opening up to a group of people, there is another alternative, such as going into psychiatric medication. While this is another option for the compulsive gamblers, this method is not recommended for everybody. There are medications that have side effects that may complicate matters.

The fastest way to find help is support online. This is the fastest kind of support that are the right vehicle for gamblers who need help fast and they are secure knowing that they are not the only ones suffering from gambling addiction.

Whatever methods you treatment you decide on, you have to realize that gambling addiction is serious business and should be dealt with accordingly before things get real bad.

Ever wondered what it was that started you on your gambling addiction? How did this come about? What did you do differently? Did you intend for it to happen? Was it your escape from reality? Was it to get away from another problem? These are questions that you need to ask in order for you to address the root cause of the problem.

Numerous reasons abound as to the why and how of gambling addiction. Some of the reasons are very visible and out in the open while some are well hidden from the public eye and sometimes to the victims themselves. The most apparent causes are sadness, frustration, and disappointments in life. In addition to this, a negative experience can also be set off an addiction to gambling.

Being unhappy and unsatisfied of what life has thrown you can be a very clear indication that led you to excessive gambling. Because you feel that your life is full of problems or troubles, you turn to gambling where you can have all the fun you want and be happy because you seem to be in control of your life.

The hidden cause that may have triggered the addiction is having a type “A” personality. This personality compels you to keep on gambling because you want to savour the winning aspect that comes with it. You start strategizing so that you can apply the tactics to your advantage, thinking that you found the ultimate formula to win. At this point you are absolutely sure that you are in command of your gambling activities and not the other way around.

One other cause for being addicted to gambling is a negative point that was initially introduced to the subconscious mind at an early age. Like, as a child, your parents may have constantly prohibited you from playing cards or participating in betting games, as you grow older, this will be inculcated in your mind and most likely your curious mind will not be satisfied unless you try it out yourself, hence, the start of your gambling career.

There are many different ways one can make profits from the comfort of their home, but today we are going to share a different way. We say different because the online auto parts trade is still in its infancy stage and not many people are familiar with the opportunity. used engines

Look around you when you are on the road. There are millions of cars, buses, motorcycles, boats and not to mention sports vehicles. They all require or will require some maintenance or parts down the road. It is just a matter of time. In fact according to the U.S. Department of Transportation Statistical Records there were 241 million registered vehicles in 2007 in U.S. alone, and this does not include the vehicles in stores, salvage yards, auto auctions, and countless other places. Now, multiply this many vehicles by the number of parts an average vehicle has, and you get into trillions.

Before the internet age the auto parts industry had been primarily occupied by the big conglomerates such as NAPA, Checker and a few others but thanks to the internet this is changing. Today anyone who has an access to the internet has the opportunity to unlimited potential, and better yet create it from the comfort of their home. According to eBay motors 4.5 billion dollars worth of automotive related items are sold annually making it the most profitable sectors on eBay. The majority of sellers are ordinary people who buy and sell for a profit.

There are two different ways of profiting in this business. One is to open a brick-and-mortar place. The second way is to do it online. In this chapter we are going to skip the brick-and-mortar method as it takes tremendous capital investment, time and effort, and we will devote our energy to online strategy. The great part about running any online business is it allows you to be flexible, it operates 24-7, and gives you an access to global marketplace.

1. To generalize auto parts business involves buying some auto parts from various places, and selling it for a profit. The auto parts can be anything from small clips to big engines. We suggest that you sell the parts that are fairly easy to handle, not bulky or too fragile. For example window shields are big, fragile and difficult to ship. Very heavy parts are also difficult to work with. With this being said there are many online stores that specialize in handling these big, bulky and fragile auto parts and they do extremely well. It is a matter of your preference and choosing the parts you want to work with.

2. It is always better to play it safe before you dig in. So, we strongly suggest that you be patient and run a small test before asking a manufacturer for 100 headlights. If you happen to have some spare genuinely used auto parts or you know someone that might have some you can try listing them on the web. It doesn’t cost you anything and you will be rest assured that you are not wasting your money. To list your parts we suggest that you choose a website that specializes in the industry, allows you to pay on per-sold basis, and offers automatic re-istings.

3. If you want to go straight to the big game and skip the test mode then you will need to equip yourself with some inventory for cheap. The best way to obtain such inventory is from international supplier. The reason is the price. You can buy 100 headlights or any other parts for darn cheap. There are hundreds of auto parts manufacturers in China, India, Taiwan and many other countries that you can contact and purchase your inventory. Once you find a few manufacturers that you are interested in e-mail them with some questions. Ask them about minimum order, price per item, shipment terms and delivery time or any other requirements. This information is important as it will allow you to determine the selling price for you item. Check some good name stores to determine a competitive selling price for your auto parts.
