About Me

SELBOYMy friends call me “SELBOY”, but you can call me “SELaplana” or “SEL”. My real name is “Sustines E. Laplana”. I am a member of the “Kamayo” tribe of San Agustin, Surigao del Sur or simply an “Oteizanhon”.

I am an Electrical Engineering graduate from the Leyte Institute of Technology, Tacloban City (now Eastern Visayas State University) batch 1998. I am one of the jobless Filipino in Eastern Visayas. I am the only jobless here in our province that earns a decent income online by blogging.

Making Money Online by Blogging?

Yes! I started blogging just because I wanted to enhance my writing skills. I was not even thinking that I can make money from it. But after learning few things on how to monetize a blog, my goal in blogging started to change. Now, I blog not just to enhance my writing skills but also to earn money from my blog especially that I have no other sources of income except my blog.

If you have something to tell me, just send it to me:

You can also connect with me at:

You can also browse my collection of Photos at my online Gallery.

The Blog:

The blog focuses on Technology, Products, and Entertainment in general. You’ll find tips on making money, blogging, SEO, Adsense optimization, Product Reviews, product promotions and sales (DVD, Gadgets, Books, Software, Computers…). From time to time you’ll find sponsored posts which are categorized as “Pay Per Post” posts.

And since this blog is an associate of the YesAsia and Amazon, you’ll find also posts that features some products of these two companies.

The theme of this blog is made available by Me. And currently, I am focusing my posts on lessons to be learned from different issues as the blog title say, “Learn Lessons with SELaplana.”

On Religious Posts:

I have posted several personally-written articles on Religion. However, I want to tell you that I am not authorized to preach the truth written on the Bible, and those articles couldn’t be considered as the official doctrine of the Church I affiliated with .

Writing religious articles is just my way of introducing and sharing my faith to all my love ones and friends who can only be reached by me through the internet. If you are looking for the official doctrines of our Church, please visit the nearest house of worship of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church of Christ) and look for the Minister assigned, or talk any of our brethren to arrange a meeting with our Minister.

Quoted Bible verses are served by the free services of Bible Gateway.

On Images:

Images posted on this blog are owned by several owners without asking permission. The owners are given credits through the links posted along with the articles.

On Quote:

Credits on quotation are given through the links posted along with the quoted parts, or are mentioned after the quoted passages.

On Reprint Articles:

From time to time I will post reprint articles. Reprint articles are copyrighted by their respective owners under the Free Re-Print Policies. Other webmasters can repost these articles to their own websites and blogs as along as they are not modified and the links are kept alive.

Reprint Articles are tagged REPRINT ARTICLES or REPRINT.

On Ads:

Ads feed by Google Adsense and other Advertising Companies are just advertisements and are not related to me nor to the blog. I have no control over them.

On Comments:

I always read and checked the comments posted at the comment section of every posts of this blog. All comments that I consider spam will be marked spam. All comments that contains usable info but is linking to a site that I hate to be linked will be edited.

However, there are also comments that are directly sent to my email by replying the copy of my writeups (sent by Feedburner to all feed subscribers via email). And that from time to time, I will be talking about your comments (whether posted at the comment section or sent via email) on my future posts.

Goal:

Two of my targets are: To own a site that receives 1,000,000 Unique Hits a day and to earn $100/day or more with YesAsia and Amazon.

    Hi

    I’ve received this message from you earlier:

    ” I just want to inform you that your blog has been submitted to the Pinoy Bloggers Directory. however, we can’t approve it anyway because we have no clue whether your blog is a Pinoy one.

    tnx”

    My blog is in Romanian language is about literature, thoughts, poetry and this kind of entertainment. I’m not sure if it will fit your requirements. Either way thanks for letting me know and who knows, maybe we will keep in touch for a future colaboration with the Romanian blogosphere.

    Take care

    hi sustines!

    can you possibly make a personal blogspot/website for that matter?

    how much would i pay?

  8. SELaplana says:
    July 26, 2007 at 11:35 am

    hi Claueh. I’m sorry but I don’t understand what you mean, “…. a personal blogspot site for that matter…”

  9. claueh says:

    hi!

    a homesick “transplanted” maasinhon like me often lurks in your site in the hopes of getting the latest juice on our dear old town, but man, with a popular blog like this, you need to pimp Maasin City more! as in MORE! im jealous much though. ;P

    Hi Mr. Laplana, I’m new to blogging and found your blog helpful and informative. I also like the way you write, very honest and unpretentious. More power and God bless!

    I read your post regarding your new bike! Wow!
    It is stories like these that puts wind beneath the wings of rookie bloggers like me. I have a month-old website and although I am lost most of the time in this world wide web (took me 3 weeks to learn how to add photos to m y posts from my 16-yr old daughter!), I am very excited to learn!
    I like that the field of blogging is not heavily saturated and it seems that blogsites need other blogsites to survive (links exchange etc.)
    Again, goodluck! May you achieve your goals!

    Hello, Selboy? Remember me. Can u recall our days at the LIT (now EVSU) computer center at the Engineering building? i’m still connected with EVSU.

  18. SELaplana says:
    January 25, 2008 at 11:53 pm

    Hello Sir Soc,

    Musta. Of course I can’t forget the people who became part of my IT life in LIT. Hindi po yata ako maging blogger ngayon if not because of the knowledge and expertise I acquired from the LIT-IT group headed by Sir Petilla.

    I visited last year the school and found out na some of the LITCOS members are already employees of the school. Glad to know that.

    Ilan na po pala anak niyo? hehehe

    Ingats po. God Bless and Good luck.

    Hi Sel,

    Wow, I’m really impressed. I hope to learn from you these coming months (or years). Maybe you can e-mail me at least one important advice about blogging, no?

    Keep it cool.

    Title: ako na lang

    Content:

    Oohhh ohhhh ohhh

    Ano ba ang problema mo?
    Bakit ka nandito?
    Cguro ay iniwan ka na nya
    ‘Di ka ba nadadala?
    Na lagi kang pinapaasa
    Pinagpalit ka lamang sa iba

    (Chorus)
    Sana ako na lang ibigin mo
    Umasa kang tunay at hindi ka iiwan
    Kahit nasan ka man ako ay darating lang
    Sa lahat ng panganib ika’y babantayan
    Maniwala ka, pagkat minamahal kita

    Hindi na ba magbabago
    Hindi ba pwede maging tayo
    Wag mo akong itulad sa kanya
    Sakali mang maicp mo
    Walang magmamahal sa’yo ohh
    Nandito lang ako karamay mo

    (Chorus 2x)

    Minamahal kita…
    Pagkat minamahal kita
    Minamahal kita
    Pagkat minamahal kita

    sir, good day, I was trying to add one of my blogs to your directory, but every time I entered the CAPTCHA code, it resulted to a page with a message:

    “Every CAPTCHA can only be used once. The current CAPTCHA has already been used. Please click back, refresh the page and try again.”

    I tried it several time sir with a different CAPTCHA code, but it always resulted to the later.

    sir, pa check na lang po. maraming salamat and more power!
