Fill out everything, try make it sound good and professional!!

Getting "Popular"
7. As soon as you have posted your post, try and "like" your own post, and comment it yourself.. post it on twitter & on facebook! This will get it maximum attention, and quicker as well. This way your post should stay on the front page, or the front page of its category.. or nearly the front page anyways!
8. DONT copy and paste the link from the address bar, go to your post and scroll down a tad, and find the button which says "Share on Luuux and earn $$$" Click that... then get the link from there! Everytime someone clicks THAT link, you will earn 2 points.
9. there is also a HTML, which means you can post a Luuux button on your blog just like i have! You should get Luuux for this too!
10. Try and comment back to EVERY comment you post, this will make your post get higher ratings, and it should move up on the "popular" page!
11. I normally write at the end of my post "Like this post if you love makeup" write something catchy that will get people to actually click "like" on your post! These are all factors on getting your post, more points and more popular!
12. All these things im telling you will earn you points!
13. When you see your post getting more popular, try and advertise it a little more, you could post it again on twitter and facebook, or even make a video on it on youtube!
14. Then for popularity you can hope for the best :)

Posting Great Posts!
15. You could try posting something where your audience has to vote, because giving the option of voting, will make people comment more, making it more popular!
16. Have a good search on the website, and defo stay away from common posts, and pointless posts! This will not help, and its a waste of time!
17. Try and find something that girls will love, or something really shocking! Maybe something you didnt even know yourself! If you said "wow" to it.. then everyone else will :)
18. Dont post something negative.. no1 like a moaner, and posting things like "i hate this" "whats the point" it letting the mood down! No1 will like your comment, and could possibly argue against it!
19. You have to act fast, and make your posts seem great! If other people see that your post is great, they may copy it.. and try and make it better! So try and make it as good as it can get!
20. You may find that you have posted something "really good" in your eyes, but people may have just missed it.. try not posting it again straight after, leave it for a day or two, and try posting it again, it may get more attention this time!

Winning
21. So if your post has won "post of the day" "post of the week" & so on, then you will receive an e-mail about this, and you will also be able to see it! If you click the category it was in, then click winners you should see it somewhere there! If so... WELL DONE! & Your post will get even more views, and votes :)

If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask me!
The reason why i earnt 2,000 + Luuux $$$ in 5 days is because i work very hard at it
and i have won post of the day & week!!

Thanks for reading, i hope i helped youuu :)

New Look Dream Outfit!

So there is always that ONE outfit, you would kill to have, that one pair of shoes, that one bag..Well i've chosen my favourite "To die for" items, from newlook.com! I have chosen, a White wash out pair of jeans, plain white T, statement blazer & biker boots. I have matched these up with brown accessories, & a satchel! My number one wish list item is a satchel, so i had to MAKE the bag work with the outfit!



I love new look, not only because of their reasonable & cheap prices, but because of the quality of clothing & youthful designs in their collections. Although when shopping i always head for Top Shop & River Island, i almost always end up in new look, purchasing my next "clubbing outfit" "dinner outfit" or "wedding outfit"

They cater for every occasion & weather condition, this is why you will always find me in there shop!!

Props to their super super cheap & lasting accessories! If you have a small budget, and want vintage, contemporary jewlery then check them out!! Also if you watch me on youtube, you will have already seen my MINI OWL NECKLACE & EARRINGS.










Mini Owl Necklace - ONLY £3
Cream Ring - ONLY £2
Earrings - ONLY £5

NEW TO BLOGGING.

HEEEY everyone, if your reading this blog, then that means your reading my first EVER blog! Thanks for coming to my page, i really appreciate the support from everyone! I have made this blog, for me to basically babble on about anything, hair, beauty or fashion related. But mostly for my reviews for you guys! I love getting new makeup, and hair products and trying them out is just the beginning!! Spreading the word to you guys, telling you how good the products are, and how useful they are, makes my day! If i have inspired someone to go and buy a product, which will make their life easier, then that puts a smile on my face! When i receive comments like, "i have this hair straightener"! "Or I'm going to buy this/I'm going to try this out today" I does not only make me SMILE, but you inspire me to make more videos for you guys!!

I started making youtube videos around a year ago! I actually uploaded my "My new red hair" video 1 year from today!! 17/6/2010. So that was also inspiring! I do wish i had carried on making videos when i started, because i had so much support, and fans! Now building them back up, trying to start up my youtube again, is much harder than i had expected. When i made my videos, i didn't know what 2 expect, i didn't really care about comments, or subscribers, or views. I did them for fun! Thats what youtube should be all about, giving advice to people who need it, for fun. not gain. When my "how i do my wavy hair" video reached a high number of views, i was wondering, how it this? WOW, i cant believe how many views I'm getting, and I'm taking about 10,000 views. Now that video has hit 40,000+ views i am over the moon, that i have helped over 40,000 people!!

This summer, like the last i am dedicating it to you, my fellow youtubers! Your in luck, i don't have a holiday planned, or any kind of life. So i devote my life to helping others, in doing so, i am also having fun, and gaining friends! :) So i need your help guys! When i ask myself "what video shall i do next?" My mind goes completely BLANK. uhmmm?? what??? So i would love you to private message me, comment on my profile/videos of ANYTHING you can think of. Any kind of hair tutorial, summer fashion video, my foundation routine, my makeup routine, my hair routine. Come on guys, there must be 1,000,000 ideas you have for me!! Send them through, and you never know, i could upload a video on what YOU asked for, i will also tell the viewers who gave me the idea!

I just want to say thanks again, for clicking onto my BLOG PAGE, please feel free to follow me, because i am doing a review very, very soon! Good luck guys in the future to come, and have a SUMMERY SUMMER!! :)


SIANAWEST.
