Webmasters / Big Adsense Policy Update: Ad Limits Per Page Lifted, Valuable Inventory Intro.. by PeoplesGist(m): 8:08pm On Aug 22, 2016
Google just made a policy change that is bound to make web publishers happy — they often don’t make announcements about product and policy changes and users are left to their own devices to eventually figure it out.

This is the reason why there are hundreds of web publications dedicated to documenting changes and updates to Google search and ad products. Most of these publications depend on lucky breaks — accidental discoveries, word sent in by insiders, and tips by users

We recently found out about an important policy update in Google AdSense via one of the aforementioned means; these are important changes, and as far as we can tell, no one has or is covering them.
Visual Proof of Policy Change
You can view the exact changes that have been made to the ad serving policies by clicking on the two images below; the older image is a screenshot from 10/08/2016 and the other image contains the new policy.


Detailed Account of Policy Change
Here are the text excerpts of the old policy, which has now been removed, and the new policy that has been introduced in its place.


Old (obsolete) policy: Ad limit per page

Currently, on each page AdSense publishers may place:

Up to three AdSense for content units
Up to three link units
Up to two search boxes

Publishers may not place more than one “large” ad unit per page. We define a “large” ad unit as any unit similar in size to our 300×600 format.

Go here to read the full text on Wayback Machine.


New policy: Valuable inventory

Advertising and other paid promotional material added to your pages should not exceed your content.
Furthermore, the content you provide should add value and be the focal point for users visiting your page.
For this reason, we may limit or disable ad serving on pages with little to no value and/or excessive advertising until changes are made. Examples of unacceptable pages include but are not limited to:

Mirroring, framing, scraping or rewriting of content from other sources without adding value;
Pages with more advertising than publisher-provided content;
Automatically generated content without manual review or curation;
Hosted ad pages or pages without content;
Pages that don’t follow our Webmaster Quality Guidelines.

Source page for new policy.


Summary of Policy Changes

You can now place more than 3 ad units on a web page.
You can now place more than one large (> 300×600) ad unit on a web page.
Policies still only allows one 320×100 ad unit above the fold on mobile. Below the fold, however, there is no limit now.



What This Means for You
Generally speaking, this is a relaxation of policies. If you’ve ever used AdX, you’d know that one of the selling points for its use tends to be about how you can place more than 3 ad units on a page — well, now you can do with AdSense as well.
The new policy seems to be more about subjective evaluation of content dubbed “valuable inventory” and its usefulness to users instead of a having rigid set of rules to abide by.
It’s not hard to speculate why Google would make such a move — publishers have been a hard enough time as it is dealing with ad blockers and falling revenues, and these particular set of policies were at the top of the list of reasons that led to account suspensions.


Our Advice
Just because there are no limits on ad placements now does not mean you should go crazy about it and litter your page with ads.
First, that would in principle violate the “valuable inventory” policy, so you need to use your good judgement.

Second, the most effective way to improve ad revenue still remains experimenting with ad layouts and A/B testing ad units instead of blindly adding more units.

Investment / How The Founder Of MMM Nigeria Mavrodi Was Found And Arrested For Fraud by PeoplesGist(m): 9:22pm On Aug 10, 2016
Disclaimer: This Post you are about to read here on [url]PeoplesGist.com[/url] is not a sponsored nor featured post to Build nor Destroy MMM, rather it was for the purpose of sharing some hidden ideas.

What Is MMM?

According to their official website ,

MMM is not a bank, MMM does not collect your money, MMM is not an online business, HYIP, investment or MLM program. MMM is a community where people help each other.

MMM gives you a technical platform which helps millions of participants worldwide to connect those who NEED help to those who are ready to PROVIDE help, for FREE. All transferred funds to another participant are your help given by your own good will to another one, absolutely gratis.

If you are completely confident and certain in your actions and make your mind to participate, we kindly ask you to study carefully all warnings and instructions first. In cases of any matter regarding the topic Our online consultants are ready to help and answer all of your questions.

How Does It Work?

MMM is a community of people providing each other financial help on the principle of gratuitousness, reciprocity and benevolence.
In MMM you don’t have to make contracts or pledge your property. In MMM there are no lenders and no debtors. Everything is very simple: one participant asks for help — another one helps.
The only thing that MMM demands from its participants is to be honest and kind to each other. You ask for financial help when you need it, you give financial help when you are able to do it.


How Does It Works Technically?
You declare the willingness to give help (click in your Personal Office (hereinafter PO) "Provide Help"wink, after which your account will be rewarded with mavro (internal “currency”/scores of the System). Mavros will start growing from the moment of offering the contribution at the rate of 30% per month. (Calculation of reward occurs twice a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 00:00 GMT.) This sum in Mavro shows how much you can request for yourself.

Say you have announced willingness to assist with $ 100. You will be rewarded in your PO with 100 mavro. And they will immediately start growing! A month later, these 100 will become 130 mavro. Accordingly, you will be able to request assistance for $ 130.

However, it is not necessary at all to wait for a month. Help can be requested at any time. But only after confirmation of your mavro. What does "after confirmation" mean? It means only after you actually transfer money, i.e. really give assistance to another participant. (But not just declare willingness. :-)) Request for providing help comes to you in your personal office. If you do not do it within 48 hours, you will be removed from the system. (For all eternity. :-))


History Of MMM
MMM was established in 1989 by Sergei Mavrodi, his brother Vyacheslav Mavrodi, and Olga Melnikova. The name of the company was taken from the first letters of the three founders' surnames.
Initially, the company imported computers and office equipment. In January 1992, tax police accused MMM of tax evasion, leading to the collapse of MMM-bank, and causing the company to have difficulty obtaining financing to support its operations.

Faced with difficulties in funding its foreign trade, the company switched to the financial sector. It offered American stocks to Russian investors, but met with little success. Later, MMM-Invest was created for the purpose of collecting vouchers during privatisation. This effort was similarly unsuccessful.

MMM created its successful Ponzi scheme in 1994. The company started attracting money from private investors, promising annual returns of up to one thousand percent. It is unclear whether a Ponzi scheme was Mavrodi's initial intention, inasmuch as such extravagant returns might have been possible during the Russian hyperinflation in such commerce as import-export.

MMM grew rapidly. In February 1994, the company reported dividends of 1,000%, and started an aggressive TV ad campaign. Since the shares were not quoted on any stock exchange and the company itself determined the share price, it maintained a steady price growth of thousands of percent annually, leading the public to believe its shares were a safe and profitable investment.

An important factor in the scheme's success was word of mouth, but most of the company's success came from its extremely aggressive ad campaign, which appealed to the general public by using "ordinary" characters that viewers could identify with. The most famous of them, a "folk hero" of early 1994, was Lyonya Golubkov. Another notable marketing effort was a giveaway of free Metro trips to all Moscow citizens on a particular day. MMM also was one of the first well-known companies in Russia with a logotype and slogans ("Flying from shadow to the light" and others).

At its peak the company was taking in more than 100 billion rubles (about 50 million USD) each day from the sale of its shares to the public. Thus, the cashflow turnover at the MMM central office in Moscow was so high that it could not be estimated. The management started to count money in roomfuls (1 roomful of money, 2 roomfuls of money, etc.).

Regular publication in the media of the rising MMM share price led President Boris Yeltsin to issue a decree in June 1994 prohibiting financial institutions from publicising their expected income.

The success of MMM in attracting investors led to the creation of other similar companies, including Tibet, Chara, Khoper-Invest, Selenga, Telemarket, and Germes. All of these companies were characterised by aggressive television advertising and extremely high promised rates of return. One company promised annual returns of 30,000%.

On July 22, 1994, the police closed the offices of MMM for tax evasion. For a few days the company attempted to continue the scheme, but soon ceased operations. At that point, Invest-Consulting, one of the company's subsidiaries, owed more than 50 billion rubles in taxes (USD 26 million), and MMM itself owed between 100 billion and 3 trillion rubles to the investors (from USD 50 million to USD 1.5 billion). In the aftermath at least 50 investors, having lost all of their money, committed suicide.

Several organisations of "deceived investors" made efforts to recover their lost investments, but Sergei Mavrodi manipulated their indignation and directed it at the government. In August 1994 Mavrodi was arrested for tax evasion. However, he was soon elected to the Russian State Duma, with the support of the "deceived investors". He argued that the government, not MMM, was responsible for people losing their money, and promised to initiate a pay-back program. The amount ultimately paid back was minuscule compared to the amount owed.

In October 1995, the Duma cancelled Mavrodi's right to immunity as a deputy. In 1996, he tried to run for Russia's presidency, but most of the signatures he received were rejected. MMM declared bankruptcy on September 22, 1997.

While it was believed that Sergei Mavrodi left Russia and moved to the United States, it is possible that he stayed in Moscow, using his money to change apartments regularly and employ a group of former special agents. With the help of a distant relative he started Stock Generation Ltd., another pyramid scheme based around trading non-existent companies' stocks in a form of the "stock exchange game" on the company's site, stockgeneration.com. Despite a bold-letter warning on the main page that the site was not a real stock exchange, between 20,000 and 275,000 people, according to various estimates, fell for the promised 200% returns and lost their money.

According to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, losses of victims were at least USD 5.5 million.

Mavrodi was found and arrested in 2003. While in custody, Mavrodi was given until January 31, 2006 to read the documents in his fraud case against him (The criminal case consisted of 650 volumes, each 250-270 pages long).

At the end of April 2007, Mavrodi was convicted of fraud, and given a sentence of four and a half years. Since he had already spent over four years in custody, he was released less than a month later, on May 22, 2007.

He later went on to creating yet another pyramid scheme called MMM-2011.

The MMM scandal led to increased regulation of the Russian stock market, but the legacy of the fraud led many to become extremely suspicious of any joint stock companies.

In 2015 MMM began operating in South Africa with the same business model as MMM-2011, claiming a "30% per month" return through a "social financial network".

The group was identified as a possible pyramid scheme by the National Consumer Commission and accounts of clients were later frozen by Capitec Bank.

In response to mounting criticism and official investigations by state authorities in 2016 supporters of the South African MMM scheme staged a protest march in Johannesburg.

In 2016, MMM launched a website targeting the Nigerian audience

Celebrities / Top Popular Nigerian Bloggers That Are Married But You Never Knew by PeoplesGist(m): 10:00pm On Aug 04, 2016
A formal union, marriage is a social, and legal contract between two individuals that unites their lives legally, economically, and emotionally. The contractual marriage agreement usually implies that the couple has legal obligations to each other throughout their lives or until they decide to divorce.

Being married also gives legitimacy to sexual relations within the marriage.

What is Marriage? A question we often receive is "What is marriage?" In order to define marriage, it is important to look at not only the historical period, but also on the geographical location and the cultural traditions of the individuals involved in the marriage relationship.

Marriage is based on the truth that men and women are complementary, the biological fact that reproduction depends on a man and a woman, and the reality that children need a mother and a father. Redefining marriage does not simply expand the existing understanding of marriage; it rejects these truths. Marriage is society’s least restrictive means of ensuring the well-being of children. By encouraging the norms of marriage—monogamy, sexual exclusivity, and permanence—the state strengthens civil society and reduces its own role. The future of this country depends on the future of marriage. The future of marriage depends on citizens understanding what it is and why it matters and demanding that government policies support, not undermine, true marriage.

She migrated  to the United Kingdom at the early age of 16, and studied economics at Girton College, Cambridge, where she was the first foreign, and third female President of the Cambridge Union.

Huffington developed craze in  writing books in the 1970s, with editorial help from Bernard Levin.  They both traveled to music festivals around the world for the BBC.  At the age of 30, she falled deeply in love with him.

In one of her articles she declared that Bernard was not only her role model and mentor, but also the greatest love in her life. According to some sources, the only reason why in the early 1980 Huffington decided to break up with Levin and moved to live to New York was that unlike her lover, she wanted to get married and have children.

Arianna – this  amazing woman  building a non-stop empire – got the same lesson both from her mother : ‘be present’; be present in the moment, enjoy it and don’t worry about what tomorrow brings.

They have two daughters, Isabella and christina. She inspires her children to be brave and to go chase their dreams. She believes that failure is not the opposite of success but it is part of success. She wants her daughters to know that the universe – or whatever you want to call it – is there to support them and is not against them.

Celebrities / How Popular Blogger Clement Ogudu Was Embarrassed Today By A Police Man by PeoplesGist(m): 7:52pm On Jul 09, 2016
Clement Ogudu is a very recognised blogger and Internet Marketer who is very good in what he does. He is the founder of View Nigeria.

The young fellow who welcomed his first Ride (Toyota Camry) earlier this year shared some little challenges he faced with a police man as he was stopped when coming back from a visit.

Actually the police man mistook him for a Yahoo boy rather than a blogger and Marketer who he truly is.

Read Below as he wrote about it on his Facebook timeline:

So this is how it happened,
Just 30mins ago I was coming from my bro place LordEmma Jubilee on a one on one class.. I got stopped by SARS, he asked me to parked... my heart got... ߘ㠓ha but no need... So I parked. He asked me to open my boot and come down, I did. He saw my goods I sells ( # Migwo products) and my laptop..

Education / Minister Orders Refund Of Post-utme Fees The Second Time Or... by PeoplesGist(m): 7:44am On Jul 05, 2016
Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu has directed all tertiary institutions that have conducted post–UTME examination to immediately refund money taken from candidates.

The minister has also declared that post-UTME examinations already taken are null and void; threatening that any institution caught still conducting the examination under any guise would be sanctioned.

The minister made this position known yesterday, in a press statement issued by Deputy Director Press and Public Relations, Ben Bem Goong. The strong-worded statement reiterated the Ministry’s position that post-UTME examinations have been cancelled with immediate effect and no institution should conduct such examinations. The minister warned that once the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has certified a candidate worthy of admission into any of the tertiary institutions, that candidate must be deemed fit by the institution

According to the statement, students who have already been offered admission by JAMB may be screened by the institutions but this must not involve the conduct of any other entry examination. The candidates can be screened by verifying their certificates but not through the conduct of examinations.

The minister stated that it is unnecessary to subject students to further examinations when they have been offered examinations by JAMB since they will still have to go through between eight or 12-semester examinations throughout their four to six years study in the institutions.

The minister, therefore, directed the National Universities Commission (NUC) and appropriate departments in the Ministry to communicate the directive to relevant agencies and institutions to ensure strict compliance.

“Those who have already advertised for the conduct of the Post-UTME under any guise should stop the exercise immediately as any university caught conducting Post-UTMNE will face appropriate sanctions. If any tertiary Institution has already conducted Post-UTME, such an exercise stands annulled and money taken from such candidates must be refunded immediately”, the Minister said.

The directive to stop the post-UTME examinations was given by the minister nearly a month ago. The minister said through the statement that it was important to emphasise the directive in order to ensure that no stakeholder is left in doubt as to government’s position on the matter.

He affirmed that the responsibility for admission into public tertiary institutions lies solely with JAMB and under no circumstance whatsoever, should anybody or institution take over that responsibility by proxy.

“The ban is with immediate effect, and under no circumstance should any institution violate the directive”.

“Any educational institution after secondary education is regarded as a tertiary institution. Therefore all tertiary institutions, Polytechnics, Colleges of Education, Universities or by whatever name it is called after secondary education must be subjected to admission through the JAMB. At the end of probationary admission by JAMB, the candidates can be cleared (screened) for final admission. For any institution with a shortfall in admission, such institution can revert to JAMB for supplementary admission”.

“Clearing in this case (screening) entails only the verification of certificates of the candidates, JAMB scores, and any other physical examination to ensure that such candidates are not cultists. After this, the candidates are qualified for matriculation. Such screening should be at no cost to the parents or students and should be done upon resumption in order to avoid unnecessary travels in search of admission”, the minister said,

For secondary school leavers who are seeking admission into the tertiary institutions, Malam Adamu said that subjecting them to too many examinations all in one year, is traumatic, exploitative and absolutely unnecessary. This is besides the cost of travelling, hotel accommodation and examination fees that parents have to incur in their bid to secure admission for their wards.
