How many hours per week does a PHP or web programming contract job have on average?

I see contract jobs for PHP and MySQL programming for 6 months, for like $50/hr. Now if this was for 40 hours a week…. holy crap, that’s a lot of money. But Is it just a gimick, where they really offer only 15 or so? Or are there some weeks of even no work at all?

It’s unlikely that it’s 40 hours per week. Sometimes it could be 40 hours in 3 days, though. You’ve got to remember that when you’re doing contract work, there’s also time you have to allow for sales – for getting customers. Then there are fixed price jobs where you quote on a project for a certain amount of money – and they take you up on it. But they ask for a few small changes – now that should be extra – but they’re a good customer, you want to keep them happy – so you do that for free.

Also to be working 40 hours a week, you need to line up one job after another. Often customers don’t like waiting. If they’re 4th in line, that might mean a deliverable in 10 weeks, which they won’t accept.

Help, create a program which… in VB or PHP details below?

lets the user pick a drive [C, D, E etc] then inputs a text file name [eg. default.txt], the program then searches that text file.
the user will then input a string then the program searches that string in the text file..
(hope you understand) thanks for helping^^

PHP is a server side scripting language so you cant make a desktop application from it.
To file search and string search in VB go to those site and refer the sample codes.

PHP programming with different pages based on different user logins…?

How do I program in php a login page that, based on the username/password, calls DIFFERENT php pages for each username? For instance, if you type in MARY/PASS123 in my_login.php, it should take you to mary.php, and if you type TOM/PASS789, it takes you to tom.php…

Basically, each login gets a different .php, but most answers I’ve seen just show how to get past the login page, not a differential of what type of page is returned after login passes. E.G., MARY/PASS123 and TOM/PASS789 would both take you to generic.php….

Thanks!

You would have to grab the username from the $_POST array, and then do a redirect after processing the login credentials with something like:

header("Location: ".$_POST['username'].".php");

Neil Strauss: The Game Has Just Begun

Neil Strauss’ story is a typically American one. In fact, it has Hollywood written all over it. Interestingly, though, it’s very much real: Guy who can’t get any girls, goes to seminars about how to get girls, meets relationship gurus, becomes most famous one himself, gets more girls than he can count.

Not bad, huh? This is a guy who learned directly from the man Marie-Claire called “The World’s Greatest Pickup Artist,” Mystery, and now gives HIM tips on how to pick up women! On top of that, the guy has interviewed some of the top musical acts: Motley Crue, Marilyn Manson, Dave Navarro, Britney Spears. Heck, he even got Spears’ phone number! (But never called her.) He’s written books, including the #1 international bestseller, The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists. Overall, not a bad resume for a guy who’s only in his thirties.

So who is Neil Strauss? Right now he’s considered the #1 pickup artist in the world. He goes by the self-selected pseudonym of “Style”, and anyone who is even remotely familiar with the seduction community will tell you who Style is. In the world of mPUAs (Master Pick-up Artists to the uninitiated), he is inspiration to millions of horny guys across the globe….and hope for many more.

Currently Neil continues his role at the forefront of the seduction community. Towards the end of 2005, Style decided that he would pass the creme de la creme of seduction knowledge to five selected followers at a three-day seminar at his California home.

In 2006, he promoted the sale of only sold 375 exclusive copies of the “Annihilation Method” program to those who arrived first on his website, http://only375.com. The demand was unprecedented, and cemented his role as not just a seduction guru, but also as seduction MASTER. And every guy who beckoned at his door, was his humble subject.

On May 31, 2006, Strauss spread the word through his VIP mailing list of his newfound “Stylelife Challenge.” The program challenges those who have trouble with women to get a date in 31 days or less. Throughout the month of July he gave daily challenges through his Stylelife website, http://www.stylelife.com.

The challenges were designed to help men change their look and overcome their fears, with the ultimate goal of “winning” a date within the 31 days. The most improved guy won a prize, but the prize for Mr. Strauss is very clear: increased exposure, more followers, and being cemented as the indisputable leader of the seduction community.

Not bad for a guy who once couldn’t get any woman, eh?

4 Ways to Create Instant Affiliate Commissions

One of the easiest ways of starting an online business and earning quick profits is through affiliate marketing. With no website to develop, no product development to achieve, no refunds or customer problems to deal with, this is by far the most effective way of developing your online presence.

If you already have your affiliate products and you’re working at making more sales, an increase in commissions is the obvious goal of everyone. With more and more products hitting the online market, it’s essential to follow some simple yet crucial steps. So what are they?

If you want your affiliate program commissions to take off, literally overnight, these are the steps you need to seriously consider;

1. Do your research and check out the programs you’re thinking about promoting. It’s pretty obvious that you only want to promote a product that will give you the maximum paycheck in the shortest possible time.

The main factors to consider when doing this are obvious when you stop and think about them, but more often than not, are not fully considered before putting your time and money into making your product pay.

Check the commission structure and make sure it pays well. Also, try to find products that match your target audience and are already paying well to other affiliates. You soon know when a program isn’t meeting up to it’s promises – that’s the time to reconsider its worth and move on to the next.

As you’re probably going to be one of many affiliates promoting the same product, especially if it’s a good one, establish your USP – or ‘Unique Selling Position’. Set yourself up as offering that little something extra that makes you stand out above the crowd.
Write a short article to give away as an incentive to potential buyers. This gives you both greater credibility and extra drawing power.

Give information that’s not only free, but useful. When you do this, if what you give away for free is good, people naturally expect a great deal more from the bought product. Make recommendations about the product within the report if you can, and try to give just enough information to make people need the actual product.

2. When giving away free reports or ebooks, save and collect, at the very least, the name and email addresses of all those who download your gift. It’s now widely known that very few people make a purchase on their first introduction to a product.

This is where an autoresponder is invaluable as you can create a whole series of follow up messages to send to these prospects to entice them into buying your product. Anywhere between 6 and 10 messages are needed to finally clinch the sale, so automate this process and capitalize on the free report.

Once you have these prospects details, they are yours until the person unsubscribes. This means that you can send them information in the months ahead about other products you’re promoting, long after they’ve bought the original item.

If you develop an ezine, you are in a perfect position to send more valuable, and occasional free, information to these prospects who now value you as a source of knowledge and useful recommendations. You develop a relationship with them and they may stay with you for years to come. They begin to trust you and your recommendations and eventually, are likely to buy from you again.

3. Never underestimate the power of negotiation. Be prepared to haggle with a seller whose goods you wish to promote. Remember that all merchants need affiliates to market and sell their goods and will be more inclined to change their payment structure than potentially loose business if they see you as a good source of income.

Be bold and you could find yourself receiving a greater slice of the pie for all your advertising efforts. Don’t be greedy but be fair and you will be respected for it.

4. Use effective advertising techniques. ‘Pay Per Click’ will give you the most immediate results if you do your research right. Naturally, Google’s Adwords and Overture are the places to start, being leaders in the online PPC field. But, look around and research the smaller players who offer cheaper rates to a smaller audience. These include; ExcelSeek, JumpFind, LookQuick to name just three.

Ezine Top Sponsor and Solo ads can also give you a huge and quick return on your advertising buck with your ad being received by a responsive audience of your chosen market.

And as with any advertising campaigns – track your results. If you don’t know who’s clicking what, you’ll never know which ads are working.

Use these techniques and you’ll soon see an immediate improvement in your affiliate sales. Build on your successes and expansion and growth will follow.
