YugaTech | Philippines, Tech Reviews Blog

One way in retaining accidental visitors to your blog via search engines is to direct them to what they’re looking for. In SEO, they call it landing pages, right?

Here’s an example. If you search for “iPod prices in the Philippines“, my blog is ranked #1 in Google and in Yahoo. However, that page which is ranked doesn’t give any good info about the current prices of iPods in the Philippines.

So, what I’ll do is to write a new post giving exactly such information. I personally went to Mall of Asia and visited Apple Center to get the prices.

Apple is yet again back from the drawing boards to make us all drool with the new iPod Nano.

After the iShuffle, I thought what else could Apple add to their line of iPods? You have the iPod mini, the U2, iShuffle, and the iPod Photo which they graduated into just the 30Gb and 60GB iPod about 3 months ago.

But lo and behold, the iPod Nano is here with the storage of an iPod mini (2GB and 4 GB) and the size of an iShuffle (available in white and black colors). It’s as thin as a regular pencil and just twice as heavy as the feather-weight iShuffle. Like the iShuffle, it’s light enough that you can wear it around your neck or strap it on your arm. With a 1.5 inch color screen, this baby is off to sell millions for Apple yet again.

Retails for just $199 a pop.

Damn, I want the black one, please.

Mike Davidson has been having this great contest over his blog — the Mike Industries iPod-A-Month Creativity Competition.

Every month, Mike gives away an iPod shuffle to the most creative entry. He’s also giving another one who can come up with the idea for the month.

For the 3rd installment, he’s looking for the most creative alternative use of an iPod. I think I’m going for that iPod Shuffle this time. iPodLounge is also giving out a $150 Etymotic ER-6i earbuds to go with the shuffle.

Get brand new or second hand iPods at Amazon. iPod photos at $315 only. iPod shuffle, mini and special edition black U2 are available as well.
