In order to be the largest and the best social media for football fans on the internet we at OleOle know that we have to offer you, the fans, the best and the biggest variety of topics. Thousands of football photos and videos, news, teams, football players and much more are available on the site but we can always give you more. So prepare yourself for some "naughty" football!!!

The Dark Side Of The Ball landed at our OleOle platform to bring you the spiciest football gossip. A funny and naughty look inside the beautiful and the lives of those who take on the main stage: the footballers.

Nothing is left out; WAGs, transfers, fashion and controversy, lots of controversy.

OleOle proudly welcomes The Dark Side Of The Ball to our team of bloggers.

So get the children out of the room and CLICK HERE FOR SOME FRESH GOSSIP!

There will always be debates about who is the best footballer of the year but if we talk about LEGENDS of the Beautiful Game there will be very little room for questions, right?

Bobby Charlton, George Best, Pelé, Diego Maradona, Franz Beckenbauer, Alfredo DiStefano, Gary Lineker, Dino Zoff, Ferenc Puskas, Johan Cruijff, Michel Platini, Lev Yashin, Mia Hamm. These are some of the names that not only made we all love this game generation after generation but they also represent dreams, tears of joy and success through their inborn talent, hard work, dedication, love and passion. This is what a LEGEND is made of.

With that in mind we decided to raise the bar in the race for those willing to receive the honourable LEGEND status.

Some of our most active users achieved the mark of 3000 points quicker than we thought that it should take much more work in the path from being a Trainee to becoming a true Legend. The solution was to raise the amount of points needed to achieve the ultimate OleOle Glory from 3000 to 25000 points.

You will not lose the points you already have but if you still don't have the 25k your status will be re-adjusted according to the new points system (see table bellow).

STATUS	Points
Trainee	0 – 199
Reserve team	200 – 599
Squad player	600 – 999
Substitute	1,000 – 4,999
First team regular	5,000 – 9,999
Captain	10,000 – 16,999
International	17,000 – 24,999
Legend	25,000+

 

The game is tougher now but it's still up to you to continue submitting videos and pictures, adding throw-ins, writing on your post, commenting, etc...

The ball is rolling... and it's going towards you. Will you face the challenge?

E aí, Boleiros e Boleiras do OleOle?

Nós, aqui no OleOle, queremos ajudar para que você tenha mais e mais leitores no seu blog. Para isso, uma dica muito simples. 

Ter links internos dentro do seu post é uma poderosa forma de melhorar o seu ranking em buscas como o Google, Yahoo, e muitas outras. E é muito fácil do que você imagina. 

Toda vez que você escreve um post novo no seu blog, você deveria, antes de publicar aquele post, procurar palavras que podem ser linkadas para links dentro do OleOle. Páginas de times, de jogadores, ligas, competições e etc.

Fazendo isso você dá ao Google uma dica de que seu blog tem links e que por isso ele vai ranquear seu blog cada vez melhor.

E como nós dissemos, é fácil de fazer. Vamos usar Cristiano Ronaldo como exemplo:

"Cristiano Ronaldo é um jogador de Portugal que joga no  Manchester United, um time da Premier League que recentemente ganhou a final da UEFA Champions League, vencendo o Chelsea FC nuam decisão de pênaltis. Fortes rumores colocam agora o craque no Real Madrid"

Tudo o que está em negrito pode ser linkado internamente. Veja.

Primeiro escreva seu post. Eñtão selecione a palavra que quer linkar e clique no ícone de hyperlink (veja na imagem).

Uma nova pequena caixa se abrirá e a palavra selecionada já estará escrita na caixa, dando a seguir uma série de opções de links abaixo. Isso quer dizer que o sistema procurou automaticamente uma página sobre o jogador, no caso, ou liga ou time e já deu a opção de link, com a url e tudo. (Veja abaixo)

Se você não encontra nenhuma sugestão na palavra (por exemplo, se você digitou C. Ronaldo) você pode ali mesmo rdigitar e escolher uma palavra até que ela mande uma sugestão de link.

Depois disso, apenas clique em INSERIR e pronto. Você criou um link para a página de Cristiano Ronaldo no OleOle, que também é feita pelos fãs (você mesmo pode criar do seu jogador e time ou contribuir para ela) e com isso melhorou seu page ranking, métrica usada pelo Google e outros buscadores para posicionar o seu post ou blog numa busca de Cristiano Ronaldo. 

Faça isso em todos os POSTS e logo verá a diferença.

E, claro, mande o link do seu blog para amigos, assine comentários e emails com o endereço do seu blog e nunca pare de espalhar a notícia.
