Security Issues you should consider on the Internet and suggestions on how to control them

Beware of fake things online!!!

          The internet today is a very important and most popular technology today. With the explosion of social media, people depend a lot on it for networking and communication. Many people depend on the internet for survival, for fun and for communication.  Majority of internet users are children,adolescents and youths  According to Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of need, people at this age try satisfy their. Needs which includeS Thins like sex,food, friendship and more.

This is the reason why social networking sites like Pinterest, twitter, Facebook keep gaining popularity. Other sites to mention are dating sites, chat rooms, pornographic sites, fashion websites, modeling sites and others.

 With this increasing trend and influx of internet users and the top sites, people from different societies and back ground develop ideas on how to make use of these users in their favor, Owners of the sites mentioned above not exclusive.  We tend to focus more on the excitements brought by this innovative technology forgetting the few setbacks as well. In the struggle to satisfy individual and societal needs, internet users should be aware of the following;

Fake Profiles on Social networking sites

         If your purpose on social media is to find a partner, then bear in mind that there are thousands of fake profiles on the internet. Sometimes you might find pictures of beautiful ladies on social media, when you start a chat with them; they will refer you to a special web cam chat or video chat room where you have to pay to continue your chat. Hey!! Do you think this girl is really out to get a man? This might be a man who is just trying to use fake profiles to collect credit card numbers or get traffic to some kind of premium adult chat rooms.

Another way to detect a fake profile is from the number of friends/followers on the list. It looks abnormal to find someone on Facebook with two or three friends on the friend list and you think it is worth communicating or doing business with that person. My friend, run for your life. It is just a fake profile.

Exploitation in Chat rooms

Chat rooms allow children as low as 13 years to register.  Perpetrators, use this fact to exploit children, assault them or steal parents’ credit card information from them.  Parents must try to control the way their children are using the internet. You can follow up the type of sites your children visit by using antiviruses that has parental control options. A good antivirus is the Bit defender. There are other sot wares that can actually help you as a parent to control internet usage in your house and stay safe from internet thieves and bullies.

Password Theft

This is a common issue on the internet. Hackers try to steal information including passwords.  As you use social media or chat apps, you might be redirected to a site by your friend where you have to enter may be your email, password, credit card information and other sensitive information about yourself. Make sure you  trust this site before completing any sign up.

To avoid being a victim of password theft, make sure you have a private email you use for communication, one for banking and a different one for social media and other things. Secondly, do not use the same password on two different sites. Sometimes, we do that so that it can be easy to remember. I can use the same password on Google and Tencent because am sure of the security. But if you are not sure don’t do it.

Fake websites

Watch out when you are directed to a site where you can see just a single page with no navigation pages. Usually these sites require you to feel some information. With the use of HTML, people can create a single page which they use to get information from their victims. While using the net, take this into consideration. It is important to have an idea about HTML to help yourself from such situations.

As parents, it is your duty to protect and preserve your privacy from strangers, who could use your children to get what they want. Protecting them can sometimes mean restricting their Internet time, no matter how unpopular or how unconventional that seems nowadays.

Fake Sellers-Buyers-Products

One of the most popular way we use the internet  today is for e-commerce. You should be aware that

i.                     not all product you buy will be delivered to you

ii.                   Not all sellers will pay you

iii.                  And not all products actually exist.

It is your role to do your research in determining how safe your transactions on e-commerce site are. If you are new to buying online I suggest you buy on the big names. Like Amazon, Jumia, kaymu, Konga depending on your country/location.

Fake job Positions

Millions of internet users search for jobs online.  Sometimes you might find a job with conditions that looks too good to be true. Hey job seeker, be cautious!! Do some research about this position. For example check the country, minimum wage, the company if it actually exists, if it has a website, the profile of the person/company offering the job on LinkedIn, and more. Don’t pay money for interviews without knowing where the interview will be done.  
 Top sites like ngondopages.com and 5careers.com among others offer job listing services, this still is not a guarantee of the type of people that post the jobs. Just be careful in your job search

              Some other threats you will face include strange/fake email, downloading viruses in the name of soft wares among others. The ills of the internet will remain. The advantages are more and the disadvantages will always be there. There is always the bad side of everything.  But this should not prevent you from using it. The internet is a ‘’world’’ of adventure and discoveries. Be a part of it. Exercise caution and patience in some cases when doing something online

Why you should start Making Your Own YouTube Videos as a Business

Cameroonians like people from other part of the world like watching videos you tube. However very few Cameroonians fall among most of the internet users who do more of the watching than posting. Here are some reasons you should create your own you tube videos. Promoting on YouTube is just another great way of improving your online presence be it a business or a public figure.

YouTube is website that allows you to post, watch, and share video content. Owned by Google, the website allows videos of different variety. Today, popular videos on YouTube include how TO videos, comedy skits, music and movies. You might not like the videos you have watched, if this is the case then consider making your own videos and making it be the way you want. Your YouTube name probably will be your brand name, people will watch , subscribe and some will like to know more about your brand, and thus more sales. I did made a promotion of a weight loss product on you tube. The experience was a wonderful one.

Making a YouTube video is relatively easy. You don’t need to be a professional photographer to do so .Camcorders, webcams, mobile phones, I pads, tablets and cameras are some of the devices you can use to make a YouTube video. After making your video, you might consider removing or adding something to it. This too is very easy. Gets a movie editing software like windows movie maker and the job will be wonderfully done. Using editing soft wares greatly improve your videos. However, if you think this is time consuming, then consider meeting a professional to get the job done for you. 

Another  striking reason why Businesses should consider posting a video on YouTube is comes from the comment-like-rate feature of YouTube. This serve as a feedback that you can use to improve on your business, thanks to the positive and negative comments you will get from your viewers worldwide.

The ability to select tags also helps to promote your business/video to those watching related content. This might possibly be a start for making your YouTube sales. Consider uploading a YouTube video and selecting the right tags.

The last thing you should consider posting a video on YouTube is that, your video can be a second source of income in addition to what you get for your business. You can enable content monetization for quality content or join the YouTube partnership program. Mind you with the type of video you post on YouTube. You can get a terrible experience for posting abusive or illegal content on YouTube. So before making your YouTube videos make sure your read the YouTube Privacy policy. Quality videos get quality views.

Why should you start Blogging 10 Reasons to Start a blog

” If you want to consider blogging then you should be ready to sacrifice time, energy and money for the benefit of others.’’


1. If you are someone who always feels bored then it is a signal that you should start blogging. You might lack many ideas about the entire blogging thing most in particular ‘’how to start a blog’’. All you need to do now is do some research or examine yourself to know what you can start writing about. It can be about your town, your garden, flowers, money, love, health, your activities and so on and so forth. Juts make sure you identify what you are good at. If you have identified what you are good at then consider meeting someone to start a blog for you. You can still do a research on how to start a blog. Don’t worry I will teach you in this book , how to start you first blog. Exciting!!!!

2. Blogging helps you become more confident. If you are someone who doubt your ideas, then blogging can help you wash always such doubts. Adventure into writing and sharing those ideas with others. The feedback you will receive from the writing will help you in understanding the value of what you have and what you can offer to others. This is just a wonderful step to starting you own life.

3. Do you own a business? If the answer is yes, then it is a reason for you to start blogging. According to a survey by HubSpot , 60% of businesses who blog acquire more customers.
A blog to a business serve as a tool in connecting customers. It gives your company a voice and enables clients to have confident in your products and services based on the expertise knowledge you are sharing on the blog.

4. If you like inspiring others then consider starting a blog. There are many people out there who just want to see what others are doing, to start up their own ideas; some just need the words you are capable of sharing to push on in life. It is important the act of giving is very important in our society. Many people dont need money to get on with their lives. It will be a wonderful feeling that you are able to give something to people that will inspire them to move on with their lives.

5. Are you someone who wants to learn new things? Blogging is the best way for you to learn new ideas. When is started blogging, it was really a challenge as i sometimes feel, i am not supposed to blog on technology and entrepreneurship since i studied Chemistry in the university. While doing my research i came across several bloggers who blog on topics they did not study in school. There is a medical doctor in India who blogs about mobile technology among others. One of the most inspiring was Laurence Bradford, a lady who decided to become a developer. She learns coding and share it on her blog http://learntocodewith.me/ .

6. Blogging helps you write better. Personally blogging has played an important role in my writing and typing skills. I was able to take the challenge to participate in an international debate because of the confidence I developed as a blogger. So if you consider become an author, poet or just want to improve your essay writing skills, then a blog is a good place to start. You will easily see people who will correct you. Make sure you apply the corrections. There are many other valuable skills you can develop as a blogger. Don’t be a proud person. Also note that, not everybody will correct you the way you expect. Remember when doing what you like, you should be ready to hear what people don’t like. But that should not stop you. Keep writing.

7. Blogging is a great means to promote yourself. You might have some skills, but with those skills you can’t get employment in the companies you love. Starting a blog is a great way to expose you to thousands of such companies. Majority of companies today do a lot of research online to get the best workers. A key word might just land your dream employer to you blog and of course making your dream come true. Note that you must ensure quality in whatever you are writing. Blogging just gives you room for new opportunities and also help you to connect with people like you. A blog is better than a resume.

8. Blogging is a way of having fun. Many people start blogging for fun. Remember you must like what you want to blog about. If you like having fun then a blog will help you in achieving that. It will also improve your creativity.

9. If you want to make a difference, then you can just increase the percentage of authors in the world by starting a blog. In the course of my research, I came across a rule called the 1 percent rule which states ‘’ only 1% of the users of a website actively create new content, while the other 99% of the participants only view’’. There are many willing to view. If you want to become a content creator, then join the 1 percent and who knows we might just talk of the 5% rule someday.

10. Are you still thinking? Ok, may be yes or no. If after point 9 you still don’t find a reason for you to blog. Do you like to take challenges? If your response is yes, then it is just a reason for you to start blogging. Blogging is a challenge. It is a challenge for you to choose a niche, create topics in that niche, create 3-D images for your post, design you blog, and optimize your blog for search engines among others. Blogging is a school where you are the teacher and at the same time the student.The feeling is so great when all this is successful.

If you still can’t find a reason to blog then blogging is not for you. You are not a blogger.
