Playing Poker with Mac Online Poker
One of the most popular card games played by both young and old is poker and with the convenience of the internet, game play in the privacy of your own home makes it that much easier to play at your hearts content or in between writing blog postings. I’m not much of a gambler, probably due to my frugal nature but my husband on the other hand will easily go to a table with a plenty of cash and make back plus more on the game. His favorite game? Texas Holdem, of course. So, yes I have seen quite a few poker games being played in between MMPORG, Magic Online and other online games - all of which is played on a PC computer.
So, you know what I found out the other day? It turns out that Mac users need a special setup to enable some online poker play. Targeted to Mac users interested in playing online card games, Mac Poker Online started as an exclusive provider of information for Macintoch users wanting to play poker or casino games. I haven’t come across their site till now, but found it quite interesting…enough to actually send the link to a handful of my Macintosh friends. The site offers many lists of the best online poker sites and lists them in order of their opinion of the safest for users. They also offer various resources to enhance online poker strategy (helpful either if you are or are not a Mac owner) and offer bonus codes for popular poker sites like Titan Poker to cash in on big bonuses - how nice of them!
Many games are offered including Pacific Poker, Fulltilt Poker and Poker Stars. Prior to downloading, they do offer a convenient poker review guide and pros/cons of playing each Mac compatible game.
I’m not extremely familiar to the capabilities or browser difficulties experienced by Mac users, but Mac Poker Online appears to be quite a useful site. Although I would improve navigation on the site a bit (I felt a bit lost) or maybe add an “about us” page, it would help a newcomer to the site, like me, feel right at home more quickly. But you know what? I’ve noticed some sites that don’t necessarily “look” the prettiest as far as navigation but actually perform VERY well monetarily and deliver the goods to the consumer, doing the job its intended!

Raving Rabbids and A Month of Demographics
My husband and I received an early Christmas gift from one of our close friends…which of course we opened early. We were happy to open immediately, since it was a game that just came out, Raymans Raving Rabbids 2. It’s a fun game to play but a bit twisted… Still a load of fun when playing with friends. Here’s one of the many funny trailers for it…
Even though I’ve been having fun playing, I’ve managed to take a break from playing the game to do some w-o-r-k,
Vizu….
Not too long ago, I signed up for Beta testing polls with Vizu to not only contribute to their research polls but make some additional income. Depending on how valuable the information Vizu receives from polls on your site, they will pay you determined on a CPM (cost per thousand impressions). But not only do you get paid for the demographic information pulled from your site, you also get to view some yummy stuff.
Since having Vizu running, I’m able to see the numbers on gender, age, income level, education, marital status and household size of those that visit my sites. That’s valuable information!!! I can see that 80% of my visitors are male and mostly between the ages of 18-34. Even though I get territory information from Google Analytics, Vizu also shares this information with me. This is a great way of determining what demographic I’m targeting and mold it to the market that I want…or market it BETTER to the current demographic visiting the site. So of course, I had to add it to my personal blog… (view right)
If you are more interested in making money from the research polls, be forewarned it’s not too much. Vizu currently suggests to keep the amount recommended on their site (which is about .25 per CPM) but I doubled that amount in the past month to test it out. So for every 1000 times, I’ll earn .50 cents. If it doesn’t sound like much - it isn’t. So don’t rely on it for money, but instead use the poll information towards making your site more effective and popular to your audience. Depending on how things work out, you could increase your CPM. Polls will never be sold below the rate you specify, but if you’re able to get more per CPM…then go for it. I know I’ll be increasing mine. So far this December, my CPM for a site using Vizu, is showing Google Adsense CPM of about four dollars…much higher than the .50 cents tested with Vizu.
