Everything is going online and quikr is one of the best platform to purchase used as well as brand new products. Last month, I have purchased a sofa set from a native seller through Quikr.com and get great discount on price over direct purchase because sellers are  negotiating  their price for competition.

By using Quikr NXT chat application, it is possible to get all previous chat history and later we can use it for comparing sellers based on that chat history and choose a best seller. If you contact them through phone call, you may forgot about the deal details and who is that, details.

While Am purchasing the sofa set, I have contacted with many sellers through Chat application and discussed with my family and some friends about the deals to select best one. 

  • How to make your number private?

Click on post a free ad on Quikr.com. In contact information sections, click on ‘Maintain my privacy’ to hide your contact information. You number is private now and sellers or buyers can only contact you through Quikr NXT (Chat application). Get out of worry of getting lots of calls to your personal number. 


Share Photos over Chat

Sharing photos privately to sellers and buyers is easy with Quikr NXT. In ordinary method, you have to share your Email ID for this and they may use your mail ID for marketing purposes. Thanks Quikr to stop this. Kuddos..

using this great new feature, they have send me latest variants of that product and other useful products to choose before going on their shop.

Sharing Photos feature also helps me to select the jeans without going to their shop. They have send me variety of model through photos and I like many of them and got with negotiable reason and that’s why I visited their shop.

Earning good amount of money through online is not an easy task. It requires, dedication, effort, creativity and of course interest and patience. Earning good amount of money through online is not a easy task. It requires, dedication, effort, creativity and of course interest and patience. 

You may noticed some people earn thousands of dollars from internet and some other not even earn a penny of real cash from the same methods.

It takes time. For the first two or three months, or years, you may not earned a single penny yet. So it is always better to start a blogger or non-paid WordPress blog.

Lets start blogging. In this post, we are discussing about SEO techniques which need to keep while writing your blog posts.

Be Unique: Violating copyrights is major issue which may effect your blog/site badly. Never copy paste others content to your blog. If you need a portion of others content, giving a source link is a good idea. Copyright violation includes only copy-paste but also if you take others content and write it in other way, it is also copyright violation. Write unique contents alway, Keep your blog Unique.

Highlight Lines: Highlighting important sentences may helps your blog/website ranks higher on search results. You can highlight lines by bold or underline it. 

Update Regularly: Updating regularly is important especially in the case of blogs. If a blog is not updating regularly with fresh content, It seems like a dead blog. And also for getting visitors also, your blog should be regularly updating. Be serious on Blogging.

Never Focus on Money: 95% of successful bloggers who makes millions from their blogs are not writing just for money. Write content for human beings and not for web bots. While you have quality content (both human and bot friendly), your traffic will improve and hence revenue also.

Ad Spacing: Since majority ad networking agencies like Google Adsense are supporting PPC (Pay Per Click) advertising method, placing your ads on eye catching locations is a best idea.

Hope you are happy with awesome smartphone Moto X like me which is from the first manufacturer of Mobile phones, Motorola. I am owning this model (XT 1052, First Gen Moto X) last six months. Before buying this smartphone, I searched a lot websites about this and got only positive reviews (except in the case of SD card memory support) but the very first reason why I brought is, Motorola was owned by Search Engine Giant Google Inc that time and now owned by Lenovo.

Settings -> Active Dispay. On settings, you can tell Moto X from which apps you need notifications on Active Display Screen.

 And by tick or untick More privacy you could tell Details on notification is needed or not in Active Display Screen. For example, in the case of messaging app, if More privacy is ticked, app will not show who send and what is the message.

Little bit about Active Display Battery Usage: Active Display feature utilized very little amount of battery. And also you could stop this app at nights (your sleeping times) automatically if you are ticked Sleep at night.

# Tip: Touchless Control

Touchless Control is another feature from Moto X which allows you to access your Moto wihout touching like Apple’s Siri app. 

This app is ideal while you are driving on in home. There are four mics on the device to support this.

For accuracy, Make your room  (where training Moto X), calm and silent as much as possible

# Tip: Tricks with Moto X Headset.

When my friend got Moto X in his hand, He was surprised, is there is no call attend button on Headset of such an good smartphone? 

Yes, There is a button with Motorola logo there on the other side of Headset mic. It allows you to change music, attend call and even access Touchless Control. Excited?

Long press Headset button and Touchless Control app will activated and waits for its owners command. Never pick your Moto out from your pocket.

# Tip: Spotlight Stories: Enjoy the power of sensors.

Spotlight stories are are cartoon stories on App named “Spotlight” which uses the powers of sensors in Moto X. Currently there are three stories released (Windy Day, Buggy night and Duet) while writing this review.
