A rain dance? Homage to the patron saint of Alexa rankings? While these may be fun, they’re just as ineffective at improving your rank as many commonly held misconceptions about the Alexa Traffic Rank. Our ranking system was first introduced in 1998 and, like many things that have been around for a while, several myths have built up around it. What follows is a bit of myth-busting as well as a few pointers about how you can actually improve your rank. Myth #1: Alexa only measures traffic from people who have installed the Alexa toolbar. Not true! Alexa’s measurement panel is based…

Nigeria is recently ranked among the Top 20 countries in the world. In 2000, Nigeria had 200,000 internet users; while in Dec., 2017, Nigeria recorded around 98,391,456 internet users; implying 49,095% over a period of 17 years. The question we may then ask is, “Is Nigeria taking good advantage of this internet growth among Nigerians?”. May God give us great leaders that can envision a new order!

Today we will be examining something that would spur us to pray, because it is a matter that should draw us to prayer. It is not something to be informed about, we are simply in the know of what is going on. You know there was this story in the Bible about a man who brought his son to Jesus and because each time, there is a spirit that takes hold of the son and throws him into fire and water sometimes. In the word of the boy’s father, he says “something took hold of him.” The boy can’t explain…
Good afternoon everyone and I am glad that you have find time to join us on this edition of Leaderview. Today we will be looking at something very important which I believe will add value to your leadership and helps you to become a much more valuable leader. You see, people don’t remember the number of time you have spent with them except in the value that you added to them. And so today, we want to examine valuable leadership. I have come to realise that you are either a valuable leader or you are no leader at all. You cannot…
Across the world today, believers are taught to trust God for everything. Each time we find ourselves in difficult moments, we quickly take prayer postures and attitudes. We believe that God must intervene before our situations could ever change for the better. While that isn’t a bad idea, we mustn’t overlook a possibility or tendency of believers believing God for things they can’t even recollect or figure out. The point is this, while it is a good idea to cry out for help when in trouble; it is important that the troubled person becomes clear on what and what…
If Jesus is your Lord, King and Master, there are signs that your life must show. They came to Jesus at a point in the book of Matthew and they said to Him, show us a sign. The perspective of those asking Jesus to show them a sign was not a right perspective. They had an attitude that was not correct but despite that, they asked a question. Matthew 12:38 “Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.” Another word for teacher is Lord, or Master. You don’t call a person or…
How do you like them apples? Apple just became the first American public company to cross $1 trillion in value. The iPhone maker achieved that big number on Thursday when the stock passed $207.04 a share. Its new all-time high is $208.38. Apple is now up more than 20% this year. Shares surged after Apple reported earnings that topped forecasts and a healthy outlook on Wednesday. Even though some think Apple (AAPL) needs a new product to keep sales and profits booming, Apple has rallied past the trillion level thanks to solid sales of the iPhone 8 and X — particularly in China and Japan –…
The All Progressives Congress (APC) is a political party in Nigeria, formed on 6 February 2013 in anticipation of the 2015 elections.[4][5][6] APC candidate Muhammadu Buhari won the presidential election by almost 2.6 million votes.[7] Incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan conceded defeat on 31 March.[8] This was the first time in Nigeria’s political history that an opposition political party unseated a governing party in a general election and one in which power transferred peacefully from one political party to another.[9] In addition, the APC won the majority of seats in the Senate and the House of Representatives in the 2015 elections, though it fell shy of winning a super-majority to override the ability of the opposition People’s Democratic Party to block legislation.…
From Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa to President Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria has seen, experienced and handled or better still; being handled by 16 people, most of whom have been recycled in history in government. One thing that is common to most of them is the seeming illusion of “I cannot be defeated or removed from office”. Many coups have come and gone, and many civilians regimes have come and gone; but the impact of this presidential Illusion is apparent across the various states and sectors of the Nigerian society. While nothing is wrong in being optimistic, it is obvious that…
Once beaten twice shy the popular saying goes. It was a clear incidence that caught many PDP chieftains by surprise in 2014. Due to unresolved issues, a good number is Senators, House of Reps. members and State Governors defected from the then ruling PDP to the main opposition party APC. Soon as the defection took place, the ruling party became politically lightweight, even though they repeatedly claimed otherwise. Now, just like 2014, the same defected politicians that made PDP lighter than normal, have defected back to PDP. The question then is, “Will the likes of Saraki, Dogara, Tambuwal & even…
