*** Are You Mobile? ***
How does your Website, Blog or Facebook Page look on a mobile phone?
Are you missing out on loads of traffic and what does Google say?
Take this one minute Google Test to see … https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly
It checks …
- If text is readable without zooming
- Whether users have to scroll horizontally or zoom
- If links are far enough apart so that the correct one can be easily tapped
- For software that isn’t common on mobile devices, like Flash
And shows …
- What Googlebot sees and how it affects your website performance and search engine ranking.
- What it takes to earn “mobile friendly” status with Google. This is important because Google, and other search engines, now look for “Mobile Fiendly Tags” when determining Page Rankings and positions.
Check your site, it only takes one minute.
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly
If your site is Mobile Friendly – Great.
If not, you know what to do.
Please pass this on to friends, colleagues or even your enemies to help their website design.
Thank you.

*** Is Your Website Down? – How Do You Know? ***
Do you know when visitors to your website or blog see this?
—————————————————
404 Error: File Not Found
The URL you requested was not found
—————————————————
You have invested time and money in your website and it must work for you.
- But what if it isn’t there?
- What if nobody can find it?
- And how do you know when it’s down?
When our previous website stopped delivering the traffic we expected we carried out a lot of tests to discover why and it was only when we installed Uptime Robot we found the hosting server kept dropping out, sometimes for hours at a time, due to testing they were doing which had nothing to do with us.
Uptime Robot pinged our website every few minutes and sent us an email whenever our site went down and another email when it came back up so we knew how often and for how long our site was down.
Your hosting company isn’t likely to tell you they’re not providing the service you expect, and pay for, so getting an alert when your website is down is very much in your own interest so you can do something about it.
The sad truth is that if visitors see your website is down, they most likely won’t visit you again, and worse, may well spread the word your site was down when they visited.
We highly recommend installing Uptime Robot – and it’s free.
It takes just a few minutes to set up and immediately gives you the comfort of knowing how reliable your website is.

PS. We installed our new Traveljunkies website in January using a different host and Uptime Robot is now showing 100% availability.

Travel and work anywhere in the world.
Don’t tie yourself down doing a job you hate. Free yourself to travel and work anywhere in the world you choose.
Let’s face it … you hear this all the time
A few months ago some guy was living in his car and now he’s driving around in a limousine and living in a mansion. And all because he’s discovered a new way of making money nobody’s thought of before, and he wants to share it with you.
Yeah, right!
But now and again, someone comes along who really is making a life changing income and showing others how to do the same thing. They are totally different to other people out there on the Internet.
Andrew Reynolds is not your typical rags to riches story. The fact is he had a decent job before he started making millions online every year…
The only problem was he hated his job, and maybe you do too?
- He hated the commute every day, stuck in traffic every morning and evening.
- Working himself to the bone.
- Barely making enough to get by
Do you recognise this or perhaps your circumstances are different. Maybe you haven’t got a job, or it doesn’t pay enough or you just want a change.
Andrew decided to take action and create a different life for himself, and you can do the same.
Now he has a thriving home business that practically runs on autopilot from his laptop and if this sounds good to you …
It can be absolutely life changing

Australia PM Abbott Wants To Destroy The Great Barrier Reef.
Please share this everywhere..
…. And so it has begun. After only 24 hours as prime minister, Tony Abbott has put the Marine Park Suspension into play, with dredging construction already underway to create Australia’s newest shipping highway, Abbott point, better known as the Great Barrier Reef.
Completely disregarding the World Heritage Classification or UNESCO protection, Rinehart is removing 3 MILLION cubic meters of the worlds most diverse largest living organism and ecosystem only to build the largest coal export terminal. We are going to lose one of the worlds most truly precious gems to a temporary and damaging “solution”.
The Great Barrier Reef will no longer exist because of Abbotts desire for CSG export income.
So please reblog and share this to show your support for saving natures gift to the world. Wake UP Australia, and spread the word.
#greatbarrierreef #marineconservation #savethegreatbarrierreef
#SAVETHEREEF
Please share this on your blogs, on Facebook & Twitter and everywhere else you can.
We’ve got to stop this stupid man from destroying a World Heritage Site.
And doesn’t he realise the tourism dollars Australia will lose? Is he really that thick?

Ugly Animals
Britain’s Ugly Animal Preservation Society In Search Of … The World’s Ugliest Animal
Monkfish on Ice at Fish Market (Preview) © Kai Hendry
Dolphins, pandas, sea turtles. It’s easy to save the cute animals. But what of the world’s ugliest critters?
That’s the very question the Ugly Animal Preservation Society (yes, there is such a thing) is asking. They argue that all of the world’s creatures – from large to small, adorable to heinous – are important to the health of the environment.
The British group, sounding like something that’s just funny-walked out of a Monty Python film, is, it says, dedicated “to raising the profile of some of Mother Nature’s more aesthetically challenged children.”
To the end of saving ugly endangered creatures, reports Wanderlust travel magazine, the Society is in search of a mascot — something nice and slimy, like the jumping slug, or just malformed-looking and squat, like the New Zealand kakapo parrot.
They’re now in the nomination phase for a new mascot, with current frontrunners including the hagfish, the purple pig-nosed frog and the giant Palouse earthworm.
