Advertisement is the best but the expensive way to grow your company. I’d like to offer the cheapest way to dive in social media. Fiverr.com is full of people who want to make something for 5 dollars. Go fiverr.com, choose social marketing category. You can buy facebook fan page status updates, likes, twitter status updates, twitter fans to promote your pages, web sites or anything you want.

While buying something on fiverr.com, be aware of these;

1. Before buying facebook status or likes, ask for the page names to check, control the action inside the page because fans can be fake.

2. Don’t believe the top rated sellers, it can be fake top sellers (who have lots of friend)

3. And before buying fake likes, read this article

Most of the companies offer thousands of facebook fans in one day, week etc. Here’s how they do that trick. Just sign up youlikehits.com. They offer facebook fans, google+, twitter fans, stumbleupon likes and etc. The bad thing is they are not targeted people for your page but at least they are real. System is based on liking each other and earning points. Real people like you (webmasters and their fake accounts) who have facebook accounts like your fan page to earn points. They use those points to get like to their fan pages and also you can use your points to get fans to your facebook page. At the end, all are fake like but good for begining.

Note: I’ve tried the system. Some of the brilliant users dislike after earning points, but their percent is about %10-15.

I’d like to share a php code that you can use for bing translator api. Just add your bing api id into “AppID= ” part.

<?php

echo translate(’Hello World’, ‘en’, ‘fr’);

function translate($text, $from, $to) {

$data = file_get_contents(’http://api.bing.net/json.aspx?AppId=YoutApiIDHere&Sources=Translation&Version=2.2&Translation.SourceLanguage=’ . $from . ‘&Translation.TargetLanguage=’ . $to . ‘&Query=’ . urlencode($text));

$translated = json_decode($data);

if (sizeof($translated) > 0) {

if (isset($translated->SearchResponse->Translation->Results[0]->TranslatedTerm)) {

return $translated->SearchResponse->Translation->Results[0]->TranslatedTerm;

} else {

return false;

}

} else {

return false;

}

}

?>

Domain Locking is the simple way to protect your swf files at least from newbies. Here’s what i’ve found for domain locking. Just copy and paste this code into first frame;

urls_allowed = ["www.guidefordesign.com"];
sitelock(urls_allowed);
function sitelock(urls_allowed) {
lock = true;
domain_parts = _url.split(”://”);
real_domain = domain_parts[1].split(”/”);
domain.text = real_domain[0];
for (x in urls_allowed) {
if (urls_allowed[x] == real_domain[0]) {
lock = false;
}
}
if (lock) {
_root._alpha = 0;
}
}

for multiple domain lock just change the line above;

urls_allowed = ["www.guidefordesign.com","www.anotherdomain.com"];
