    • Olives
    • Mushrooms
    • Ground beef
    • Ham
    • Pineapple

EditSteps

  1. 1
    Spread olive oil lightly over the crust to avoid burning.
  2. 2
    Spread tomato paste on your pizza dough.
  3. 3
    Add a sprinkling of cheese.
  4. 4
    Add any other toppings that you might enjoy.
  5. 5
    With a brush, add some egg to glaze all around the edges of your pizza dough.
  6. 6
    Place your pizza on an oven tray sprayed with olive oil. Do this so that the pizza doesn't stick.
  7. 7
    Put your pizza in the oven, and turn it down to about 160 degrees Celsius or 320 degrees Fahrenheit.
  8. 8
    Take it out after about 15 - 25 minutes, depending on your oven. Use your own judgment to tell when the pizza is ready. The cheese should be a golden brown, but it should not be burnt.

Oven Method (fast)

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to about 180 degrees Celsius or 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. 2
    Sprinkle the yeast into a medium bowl containing 1.25 cup warm water. Stir until yeast dissolves.
  3. 3
    Add 2 cups sifted flour. Stir until blended.
  4. 4
    Add another 1.5 to 2 cups flour. Blend until too stiff to stir with a spoon.
  5. 5
    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for 10 to 15 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. (See Knead Dough for more information.)
  6. 6
    Place the dough in another bowl greased with a small amount of oil. Turn the dough once so that the top is oiled.
  7. 7
    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm place for about 45 minutes. Keep it in there until the dough rises to about double its original size.
  8. 8
    Dump the dough back onto the floured surface and punch it down, getting rid of any bubbles. Divide the dough in half and let it rest a few minutes.
  9. 9
    Roll each half into a 12-inch circle, depending on your personal preference for how thick pizza crust should be. (It will puff slightly when baked.)
  10. 10
    Transfer the dough to an oiled pizza pan or baking sheet. Or, if you have a baking stone, to a cornmeal-sprinkled wooden pizza peel for transfer directly to the stone.
  11. 11
    Add sauce, cheese and toppings as desired. If you like, brush exposed edges of the crust with olive oil.
  12. 12
    Bake each pizza for 15 to 20 minutes, or until crust is nicely browned and cheese is melted.

Grill Method (Faster)

  1. 1
    Spread the sauce all over the crust. You might want to leave a little crust around the edge uncovered.
  2. 2
    Put on your toppings and arrange.
  3. 3
    Grate the cheese over the pizza.
  4. 4
    Simply put it under the grill.
     Simply put it under the grill.
    Simply put it under the grill. Be careful not to get burned.
    • Your pizza could sizzle and pop because of the common bubbles in the pizza crust.
  5. 5
    Take it out after three minutes, it should be done!

Wood-fired oven method (Even Faster)

  1. 1
    Get your pizza base. It can be any sort, although don't make it more than 2 cms (3/4 inch) thick when cooked.
  2. 2
    Put your tomato sauce and toppings on top of the dough.
  3. 3
    Make sure your wood-fired oven is very hot. This will help the pizza cook faster.
  4. 4
    Put your pizza into the oven, preferably on a tray so the base does not burn.
     Put your pizza into the oven, preferably on a tray so the base does not burn.
    Put your pizza into the oven, preferably on a tray so the base does not burn.
  5. 5
    Turn your pizza every 30 seconds for two minutes.
  6. 6
    Remove the pizza from the oven after 1 minute and 30 seconds.

Water temperature

The Grumpy Mule coffee company counsels using at least two rounded dessertspoons of coffee a person (there's nothing worse than wan, watery coffee), and fresh water (as opposed to stuff that has been sitting in the kettle for a few hours) that's just off the boil: the National Coffee Association of the USA recommends a temperature between 90–96C. I happen to have a kettle that, handily, can be set to cut off at 90C, but leaving it for at least 30 seconds after boiling will do the trick.

Time and method

Pour just enough water on to moisten the grounds, then allow them to absorb the water before filling the cafetiere. Allow to settle, then stir and add the plunger to keep it warm. Leave for four minutes (Victoria reckons 30 seconds is enough, because "coffee tastes sharper and brighter if it doesn't have much steeping time", but to my mind, the longer brewed coffee is richer), then stir, plunge and pour into warm cups.

Coffee

Most important, of course, is the coffee itself. It needs to be fresh (coffee only keeps for two weeks, stored in an airtight container in the fridge), and it's even better freshly ground, if you have got the equipment. Check sell-by dates when buying.
Obviously you also need to find a coffee you like: they vary hugely in character according to variety, country of origin and roast, so it's worth experimenting.

Milk

If you add milk, I'd say the temperature was up to you. Those who add a lot may wish to warm it gently first (hot milk will spoil the flavour of your coffee), but if you're prepared to drink fast, cold milk will do the trick too. And real purists may wish to add nothing at all – with coffee, perfect is very personal.
• How do you make your coffee? Tell us here

  1. If you have an existing account, you will need to delete it before creating a new one. See Close the Old Account below before proceeding. Otherwise, continue to the next step.
  2. 2
    Go to www.facebook.com. If you have an existing account, make sure you are logged out first.
    • You will see this signup form:

    • Fill it out completely, make sure all the information is accurate, then click the Sign Up button.
  3. 3
    Find your friends. Facebook will next ask you to search your various email accounts for friends. You are welcome to do this at this time, or click on Skip this step at the bottom, and continue with the sign-up process.
  4. 4
    Fill in profile information. Step 2 of the sign-up process is filling out basic profile info: High school, college, and employer. Again, you may choose to fill this out, or skip this step.
  5. 5
    Plug in your mug. Now's your chance to shine to the world! Upload a photo from your computer, or take a photo with your web cam. However you do it, Facebook will take it. Of course, like the other steps, you can choose to skip this as well.
  6. 6
    Your new account is ready! Remember—don't forget to like us!

Close the Old Account

  1. 1
    Download your information. Having a copy of all your information—from our profile info to your friend's list and photos—is never a bad thing to have as a backup. To do this:
    • Click the account menu icon (white triangle) at the top right of any Facebook page.
    • Choose Account Settings
    • Click on Download a copy of your Facebook data
    • Click Start My Archive
    • This will take a while, especially if you have a lot of photos and are active on Facebook.
  2. 2
    Clean out your existing account. When your archive is complete, empty out all fields that aren't required, and delete. For required fields, use names that are clearly fake (Frondheim Dingleschmidt) or hopelessly general (John Smith).
    • If you want to reuse your phone and email information in the new account, change those to something meaningless before you begin the deletion process. Facebook will not let you have multiple accounts with the same information.
  3. 3
    Create a temporary email account. To delete your primary email account, you must first create a new one—Facebook will verify the email address, so you can't just make one up.
    • Create a new browser tab (Control-T on a PC, Command-T on a Mac).
    • Go to a free email provider, such as Google or Yahoo
    • Create a new account. It can be a normal email account that you might want to use for real at some point, or a temporary one you will use once and trash. One advantage of an alternate email account is that you can use it for all spam-generating sites—you never have to check it, so anything that is in it will always be spam!
  4. 4
    Add the new email account to Facebook. In your soon-to-be-defunct Facebook account, go to General Account Settings, edit the email settings, and click on Add another email.
    • Enter your new email address, and your password, and click Save Changes.
    • You will be sent a confirmation email to your new email address. Be sure you accept the new email. You will be returned to Facebook's account settings page, where you can now make the new email the primary.
    • Click the Primary email: button next to the new email address, enter your password, and click Save Changes. This will close the edit window for your email. Re-open it, and you will see your new email address on top, as the primary email. To the right of your old (real) email address, it will say Remove. Click that, and your old email is cleared out.
  5. 5
    Create your new account. See above, under Creating A New Account, for the steps to accomplish this.
  6. 6
    Transfer ownership and admin rights. You may be the admin of one or more groups or pages. Before you delete your old account, set up your new account to have admin rights as well.
    • From the left side column of your Facebook timeline, click on the group or page you administer. It will open in the Admin Panel.
    • From the Edit Page menu, select Admin Roles.
    • Add your new account as an administrator.


Why my AdSense account is disapproved every time?

The only reason for a disapproved account is: AdSense has many rules & policies and here is where we make mistakes. We don’t read the guidelines carefully and as a result get our account disapproved.
Some important guidelines to follow are:
  1. Your blog should contain quality content.
  2. Your blog shouldn’t contain thin content (less than 400 words posts).
  3. Your blog shouldn’t contain adult content.
  4. Your blog posts should not contain any links to low quality / adult sites.
  5. You should provide a valid postal address of yours.
If you are abide by the above guidelines, then there’s more probability that your application will be approved.
After approval of your application ads will not appear right away. Ads will only appear after the 2nd review, review of your site. If Google thinks your site has no copyright content and it is following every AdSense policy, then ads will start appearing. What a moment that will be! I still remember when my ads started appearing after times of submitting my application for AdSense. I didn’t get it approved at once. But it’s not that you will not get approved at once. If you’re OK with each and every policy, ads will start appearing without any issue.

Why my AdSense got deactivated? Why ads are not appearing now?

AdSense may be deactivated because of the following reasons:
  1. Clicking on your own ads.
  2. Placing ads on site containing adult or copyright content.
  3. Encouraging visitors to click on Ads or creating incentives to click on ads.
  4. Using more than recommend ads.

How many ads can be shown per page?

Ads for content: Up to three ad units and three link units may be placed on each page.
Ads for search: A maximum of two Google Custom search boxes may be placed per page.
If you’ve not went against any of the above rules then you can reapply for AdSense here:www.google.com/adsense.
If you’ve a blogger blog then you need to apply or reapply from inside your Earnings tab.
Damn! I’m OK with each and every guideline & I’ve not went against any policy.

Why my account is disapproved then???

It is a very popular question among newbies. But let me tell you that Google also sees the amount of content a site has and the site’s popularity (the no. of visitors it gets daily). I don’t know why they look up to such things; but yes, these things matters.
You may have probably received a notification like this:
The account associated with publisher ID ca-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx has been disapproved.
This problem can be due to an incomplete address or may be because of going against any policy. If you’ve fixed the problems then you can reapply it from inside blogger by clicking on “Google dashboard” present in the Earnings tab (new interface) in blogger or by going to google.com/adsense…
But if you’re getting this notification even after fixing then you can apply with a new email. But, that will take time and result may be the same notification again. So, in order to solve these problems you need to take the help of 3rd party sites like Indyarocks. When you sign up to Indyarocks you need to complete your profile and apply for AdSense. When you do so, AdSense directly gets activated and ads start appearing on your Indyarocks profile. So, without taking much time I am going to tell you the coolest way to get AdSense approved just in a few hours.
You just need to follow these steps to get your account approved:
  1. Create an account on Indyarocks.
  2. Visit your profile & click Earnings.
  3. Now check eligibility to Earn. If you are not eligible then there will be some dos which you have to complete. After doing them checks again and this time you will be eligible to earn.
  4. Now click Start Earning, use your email id & make an AdSense account. (You may require confirming. So, do check your mail.)
  5. After sometime your ads will start appearing on your Indyarocks Profile.
So, your account is approved now. And it’s time to integrate it with Blogger or WordPress.

Integrate with Blogger.

Now it’s time to integrate AdSense to Blogger.
  1. Go to Earnings on your Blog & click “Switch Account”. Then use a different AdSense account if the blogger email id is different. Enter the details & click “Link this Account.” [Check your mail once again]
  2. Make ads appear on your blog by using the options present in the Earnings tab.
Now wait a few hours as some time will require for ads to be displayed on your blog.

Integrate with WordPress.

WordPress don’t require integration. You just need to place ad codes for ads to display in your blog.
  1. Go to www.google.com/adsense & login to your account.
  2. Click on My Ads & create new ads.
  3. Select the size of the ad and click “save and get code”.
  4. Copy the code.
  5. Now go to WordPress dashboard and select plugins.
  6. Click on “Add new” & type “Quick AdSense”. You can also use the “Easy AdSense lite” plugin.
  7. Install any of the two plugin and activate it.
  8. Now go to settings and select the plugin.
  9. Paste the code and select its placement. Then click on save.
Just wait for some time & ads will start appearing on your blog.
So, that’s all you need to do to get your account approved. But always remember not to go against any policy. AdSense is the best ad program to earn money online as it is the highest paid among all. So enjoy the benefits.
