'A' Levels and Universities
A’ Levels and Universities
You would have thought that the Con-Dems would have taken the summer recess to think out some of the policies they have announced , and kept their heads down, but no they are still making blunders by the day.
The ‘A’ level exam results have been announced, but there isn’t enough places to go round, with only the very best marks, do students stand a chance of getting a university place. The ConDem proposed cuts to university funding planned for future years, and possible increases in tuition fees, only the very rich will be able to acquire a place.
The Labour government had set aside funding for an extra 20,000 universities places until 2014, when the ConDems took over they cut this to 10,000, as well as stopping the Schools investment programme for renovating and building new schools. The ConDems did come up with the idea of stopping the free school meals programme for those living in poverty, and using this money to fund their idea of the new ‘Free Schools’ to be run by parents and interested faith groups. When asked on television how many actual extra university places were available to students, the Universities Minister David Willetts declined to answer the question, saying that students should consider working for a year, or joining an apprenticeship scheme or, trying for an extra year at college. When he was asked who paid for his university education, he replied the taxpayer, justifying it by saying that in his day only 10% went to university, ‘i.e. the upper class’ . The funding for the supposed extra places was to come from allowing rich students to pay off their loans early.

Get Off To a Flying Start
Beat twitter limits with Tweetadder.
If you haven’t followed the series so far, or haven’t downloaded the free version of Tweetadder now is the time to do it.
Whether you are a first time user to Tweetadder, or have been using it for some time you will definitely generate more followers using this method.
Twitter limits the number of follows you can send in a day. The limit is 1.1 to 1, or in simple terms you can send out follows to the maximum of 10% of the number of people who are following you.
We are going to use as an example a Twitter account with 5,000 followers. [Using Tweetadder and these methods, this will take you about 6 to 8 weeks] I have a number of twitter accounts, and have built them up in different niche markets, with a combined following of well over 1 million so I know this method works. Check out this account and see how it grows each week.
If you have a twitter account with 5,000 followers, twitter will allow you to send a total of 500 follows. Using the recommended Tweetadder of a 3 day cycle you will send out 166 on each of 3 days, before unfollowing those that have not followed you back. That means on day 1 you have 166 follows out there, day 2 you have 332 follows out there, and from day 3 you have 500.
How do you increase the number of follows you can send out? Read more

Tweetadder and Twitter
TweetAdder and Twitter
The post “Be a Guest Blogger” was widely read, and resulted in a massive increase in the number of people who subscribed to the feed and to an average of 200 extra people a day who followed us on Twitter.
The article “How to Use Twitter Effectively ” also had an equally successful reception. Both these blogs show the very effective method of using 3 different blog intro’s to the same article. Check them out on these blogs. On our site, on our server, and on Googles’ Blogspot.
The response from these has prompted me to write this article ‘Tweetadder and Twitter’. Your Tweets on twitter are available for anyone in the world to read [unless you have made them private], so why not make money out of them?
How to make money from Tweetadder?
Once you have passed the 2000 mark with your followers, then you can easily market Tweetadder to your followers, through your tweets and your messages. Your followers can actually see it working on your account! If only 1% of your followers take up your offer, that’s 20 sales, and you can repeat the offer through tweets and messages to every new follower you get. And thats only the start:-

How to Use Twitter Effectively
Twitter is a great free source for promoting yourself, your company or for starting an online business .
Twitter :: A great source of information and news.
Twitter :: A great place to socialise.
Twitter :: Is addictive, profitable, and difficult to see the point of it for beginners.
This article is written in 3 sections, one for beginners, the second for people with few followers, and the third for people wanting to make money with Twitter .
1 For Beginners .
Twitter has been described as a ”Mini Blogging Platform” I think the best way to describe it is as “An Open Text to the world”
You can set up a personal or business Twitter account or both here, you will be joining 80 mill other Twitter users. You will need a username, and an email account. The first thing you have to decide is whether any body can read your tweets, this is what most people do, or whether to make your tweets ‘private’. If you wish to send tweets just to your friends, you should click the tab to make your tweets private. For instance, if you want to keep in touch with your old school friends, who may be spread worldwide. Apart from customising your twitter background easily and for free, this is all you need to read. There are other sites for free backgrounds, with this one, if you sign in with your twitter account, it is only 1 simple click to upload your new background. You might recognise one of them on my twitter account .
If you want your Twitter site to be seen by thousands of people or have a business Twitter account, and want thousands of targeted followers there is a little forward planning to be done before you start.
2 Increase your followers at super speed.
Lets assume first of all you are going to have a personal twitter account, which you can make money from, that is, you are going to sell something using your Twitter followers as potential customers. If you don’t have a web site to do this, the easiest way is as an affiliate. [More about this later] There are affiliate sites for everything; Amazon was the first company to use affiliates successfully. You are paid a small commission on the sales of people you send to your affiliate site. You get paid on your referrals subsequent sales, even if they by pass your twitter account and go direct to the affiliate site. Commissions vary from a few pennies to several hundred dollars. These are usually paid through you pay pal account. Even if you only have one twitter account and several affiliate accounts, you can still make money, and your business can be run on Tweetadder
You can run unlimited Twitter accounts using different usernames, and 20 or more affiliate programs per twitter account using the same Auto Pilot. This will give you 1,000s income streams. Read the Full Article
