You can with one simple click spread the information written here to your network of followers and friends over at Facebook and Twitter. Of course this is also a help for me to gain some visitors at the end of the day. So be social and spread the news. As I can see some people did already post things on Facebook or Twitter. Thanks for that.

I have been to several SEO or other internet marketing related conferences if it was SES, SMX or the BAC this year and for every conference I was going I knew at least one month before that I will be there for the 2 days (Keresőmarketing Nap is as usual just one day). OK most of these conferences were much more expensive for regular visitors than here in Hungary but nevertheless you cannot announce a conference 2 days before it actually starts to the paying crowd.

Now for all of you who plan on going there what can you expect? Just another Keynote by Erica Schmidt from iProspect, another pannel on Etarget vs. Adwords again some skin deep Analytics session. Nothing new, same old speakers, same old exhibitors and yet another pen from Google. Wow. But for all of you who begin with SEO these days go there, have a look and listen. You will hear that you need SEO in your company and why but you probably won’t hear what you can do to improve your SEO inhouse, where to start as an affiliate doing SEO nor do professionals get any deeper discussion except from the things they know and you won’t hear any super insights like for example Dave Naylor talked about on the Budapest Affiliate Conference this year.

Enough critics, I really like that a conference like that is taking place in Budapest but they way it is announced and built up is something I don’t really like. As I said if you don’t have deep knowledge or want to network go there, it is something like 25.000 HUF for that day including a warm meal and coffee.

Nearly everybody who ever had a Thai Massage (everywhere in the world, not just Budapest) wants to go back when in stress or unrelaxed because these well educated girls with their strong fingers just do everything to get you fit again. The massages start at 30 minutes but I recommend to book at least 60 or even 90 minutes for maximum relaxing.
Starting from your toes, feet the girls go over to your legs and body before finishing with your neck and head to make you feel good. The atmosphere in Paradise Thai Massage in Budapest is really nice and quite with a smell and sounds of Thailand which round up a really good experience.
But you don’t just get Thai Massages but also Oil Massages, Four Hands Massage, Steamed Herbal Massage and so on. Check out the list of massages in Budapest and the prices.

So what does that mean for the traffic in Budapest? You might know that for the past years also Liberty bridge was closed and everybody thought that it will be a desaster but it wasn’t. I think in the case of margit bridge it will be the same even though Margit bridge has much heavier traffic than Liberty bridge does.

Anyways somehow after a while the traffic will find it’s way. People discover new ways to work and cross the Danube on Árpád bridge or Liberty bridge and find new roads they can use instead of the ones they used to go on before. Nevertheless it will be a big daily traffic coming to the people who crossed Margit bridge or roads around like the Rakparts, the Körút or other ways near the bridge.

One of the questions for now is how long does it really take to renew Margit bridge. In case of Liberty bridge it took more time than scheduled and I am quite sure that the same scenario will come true for the reperation of Margit bridge as well and Budapesters will have to use different ways longer than originally planned. Finally, as I heart Árpád bridge will be closed as well due to construction but I hope and guess only after the Margit bridge constructions are finished in 2011… or later.

First of all Twitter lives from followers AND following other people. Have a look on the Sziget Festival account. Around 500 followers but following nobody. Well OK, some people / companies do that because they have no time to reed all the tweets. So there is already no communication and Twitter is a communication tool. Next thing you will see if you check out the tweets. “Sziget on Flickr >>> bla bla message here – link”. Thats about it. They simply took the Flickr RSS feed for the tag “sziget” and use a service that automatically posts all pictures that are uploaded on Flickr with the tag “Sziget” on Twitter. Nothing more, no own posts. The problem here is that Sziget means island in English named after the Hajógyári island in Budapest where it takes place. So what happens if you take a RSS feed which has a generic word? You get tweets with all images tagged as “sziget” including the ones which have nothing to do with the Sziget Festival in Budapest. How annoying is that?

Now automating your tweets is no problem I thing especially if you use it to create fake accounts which are great because whenever you need to you can tweet some ads or self promotion and even earn some cash with it. I have some of these accounts but a bit more creative than the Sziget account.

So here is some recommendation for the Sziget people on how to use the account automated in a bit less simple way. The main thing is that followers don’t just want to see images. They want to watch movies and read articles as well. So?

1. Take the RSS feed of a Youtube tag as well to tweet some videos in between.
2. Search in Google News for “Sziget Festival” (I think that’s unique not just like “Sziget”) take the RSS and post these news articles to read.
3. Go to Technorati, search for “Sziget Festival” and take that RSS feed to cover the blogosphere and tweet their articles.
4. Create an Google alert on “Sziget Festival” with “as it happens” and take that RSS feed to cover the rest of the net.

Yo will now have a quite good amount of Tweets on a daily basis which are not just false images but also videos, text, blogs and much more. Every once in a while you should of course tweet the one or other real thing written by your own. I set up a Twitter account about the Sziget Festival and did exactly the above mentioned steps plus some additional features which might even bring some money but that I will cover in another post some time later. So I would bet that I pass the real Sziget Festival Twitter account (if it is a real one) by the next Sziget Festival in 2010. And because I am setting up this account now I will add some more accounts with similar topics to save some time.

So once more for the makers of the Sziget Twitter account. Put a bit more effort in Twitter because it really is a great communication tool with great effects now and in future.

iGBaffiliate brought over the best of the best in the gaming and casino industry filled up with the top of the Forex industry. The panels were filled with big names in gaming and casino affiliate as well as world wide top SEOs and affiliate marketers. It is useless to go into details now about the program and the parties because it happened so much and at some points I don’t really remember what exactly happened in the clubs afterwards.

Anyways I would love to see iGaming Business coming back to Budapest next year I will be there for sure. If you want to learn anything about the Poker, Casino or Forex industry you should attend this conference as well because you will have the chance to meet top affiliate managers of all programs and network with them.

Check out the video:

I am really proud of the new version which I created next to my daily work, taking care about my child and much more things I do daily. Especially the ability to read got improved really a lot since the last version was a bit small and not too good to navigate. That should change in this version. Additionally the actuality on the frontpage is much better and much easier to handle for me.

As you might realize you have the chance to leave comments and discuss about certain topics which was possible in the old version as well but due to high spam fraud I had to close this feature after a couple of weeks. That should be better with this version.

As my list of events, restaurants, bars, clubs and so on which I have to write about got quite long you can be sure that there will be a lot of new content coming in the next days and weeks. So… I hope you like this new version even thought there are for sure some bugs in it which will be the task of the next days.

Cheers

No as I said some pictures were just hilarious for example this one:

It took me a moment to get it but I think thats just simple and good. There were tons of good posters so if you have the chance to see it go for it. It is for free, you can get drinks there and it is open till late if not all night. For all of you Hungarian speakers check the website.

Looks pretty awesome. Cheers

Well today the garbage collector rang the bell and asked me if we need to get rid of that stuff. I answered “yes, sure”. From now on he called me “főnök úr” as he saw his business coming. So he asked me if I would pay 1000 HUF to take all the remaining garbage as well in this round. So I gave him the 1000 HUF and let them take it. Usually I would have put it step by step every thursday night in the litter bin until it is gone but come on for 4 Euro he took all the stuff. He and his 2 colleagues can have a nice beer in the pub tonight and I don’t have to care about the garbage anymore. Fine with me.

Thats how Budapest and Hungary is working. A bit of money and he just took the garbage. It is a one time thing, he is happy I am happy that’s it. You find these businesses everywhere, no matter if in the taxi, with the water installation guy or in the hair dresser. That is the daily life of Budapest.
