Barry Abrahamson Systems Wrangler
 Barry Abrahamson
Blog: Barry on WordPress
Born and raised on the banks of the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas, Barry is a relative newcomer to the Bay Area and the world of blogging. During the day, he makes sure the servers are zipping along while trying not to get too much BBQ sauce on his keyboard and at night… ok, well, he’s doing the same :) When he’s not on AIM, ICQ, Jabber, IRC, or reading about the latest and greatest in MySQL optimization, Barry enjoys traveling and playing a little lacrosse.

Michael Adams Quantum Bug Creator
 Michael Adams
Blog: Blogwaffe
After escaping Moscow (Idaho), Mike has been hiding in academia for 20 or so years. We stole him from a PhD in Quantum Information at Caltech to join the real world, or as close as we get to the real world around here. In between carnitas tacos, because apparently there is no good BBQ in Southern California, Mike hacks on bbPress and the javascripty bits of WordPress.

Nikolay Bachiyski Iñtërnâtiônàlizætiønër
 Nikolay Bachiyski
Blogs: Аз, света и сметачите
Younger than even Matt, Nikolay is blogging from small but beautiful Bulgaria. He makes sure the eskimo teens can blog in their native language. When not in front of the computer, Nikolay is either in Sofia University, torturing freshmen, or wandering around Bulgaria. Being like House, M.D. is his secret dream, although quite unattainable, having in mind his lovable nature.

Sam Bauers Coderoo
 Sam Bauers
Blog: The Unlettered Gentleman
Rather than using his Commodore 64 to invent the internet, Sam used it to play games. This wasted youth was followed by several more wasted years pretending to be a graphic designer, before he worked out that he was actually a web developer. Seven years after that realization he joined Automattic. Along the way he open-sourced some software and meddled in a little project called bbPress, which he now calls home.

Ryan Boren Head Janitor
Ryan Boren
Blogs: Boren.nu, Ryan on WP
Ryan is a Texas boy currently living in Northern California where he likes to hike, ride his bikes, and read. Ryan is a telecom industry veteran who decided to leave the server closet to create things that people would actually see and use directly. If the rest of the company sat on a bench, Ryan could “press it.” He’s the one we send when people are late with payments.

Lloyd Budd Digital Entomologist
 Lloyd Budd
Blog: A Fool’s Wisdom
Lloyd is Canadian. We forgive him for this. We’re trying to guilt him into sending in a bio. Let’s see how long it takes him to notice. It’s been a few years so we’re not optimistic.

Raanan Bar-Cohen Media Engineer
 
Blog: Raanan.com
After using Gopher to impress the ladies in the 80s, and starting a web agency specializing in serving publishers and musicians in the 90s, Raanan decided to go to the dark side. Between Time Inc. and Dow Jones, Raanan worked on social media initiatives including RSS, search, podcasts, and the launch of AllThingsD.com. Now that we’ve nabbed him Raanan works on media services, partnerships, and oversees QA for the secret company BBQ sauce. (No Kool‑Aid here.)

Demitrious “Meech” Kelly Code Hound
 Maya Desai
Blog: Apokalyptik
Demitrious is a self portrayed jester (certainly not jack) of all trades and master of none. Leaving the heat of central California behind him he set out to make a difference in this new age of instant information. And what better place to make a difference than here with us at Automattic, where instant information isn’t just a goal but a way of life?

Marianne Masculino Happiness Engineer
 Marianne Masculino
Blogs: MarianneMasculino.com
Marianne was born in Germany, yet grew up in exotic locales like Elizabethtown, KY and Houston, TX. She now happily resides in San Francisco. A designer at heart and by trade, she’s joined the team to sprinkle happiness among the WordPress community. Marianne has an affinity for useless celebrity facts and makes a mean white chocolate bread pudding.

Nick Momrik Happiness Engineer
 
Blogs: MtDewVirus
Nick grew up in northern lower Michigan and currently lives in Saginaw, population 57,523. He was undercover at the Help Desk and Microlabs at Saginaw Valley State University for 8 years before joining Automattic. Nick has been using WordPress since version 0.72 and vaguely remembers life before plugins and themes. When there isn’t snow on the ground, he can usually be found on a golf course trying to get his first hole-in-one.
Matt Mullenweg CBBQTT
 Matt Mullenweg
Blogs: Photo Matt, Matt on WordPress
As the Chief BBQ Taste Tester of Automattic, Matt travels the world sampling cuisine and comparing it to the gold standard of Texas BBQ. Although he originally aspired to be a jazz saxophonist, Matt somehow wound up studying economics which took him to Washington D.C. where he began taking pictures and blogging. The rest, as they say, is mystery. He lives in San Francisco and has a crush on Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Donncha O Caoimh Murphy’s Quality Control
 Donncha O Caoimh
Blogs: Holy Shmoly!, In Photos, Donncha’s Blog
Donncha hails from Cork City, Ireland and is currently living in the picturesque Blarney village with his wife Jacinta. He’s a slightly obsessive photographer, dragging around a camera everywhere and posting photos every day to Inphotos.org. He loves getting out and about whenever he can and enjoys relaxing walks by the sea. (Murphy’s is the stout prefered by the fine people in the real capital of Ireland, the People’s Republic of Cork.)

Mark Riley Support Maven
 Mark
Blog: 69105
Mark has been living and breathing WordPress support since January 2004 and really has answered more questions than anyone has had hot BBQ. He can’t code, he doesn’t know much about the command line and his chosen OS would be Windows XP. But in his favour if your blog is broken he can probably fix it. His wife and 2 daughters put up with him in the UK.

Andy Peatling Social Engineer
 Andy Peatling
Blogs: Blaze Blog, Andy in Life
Originally from the UK, Andy had no trouble adapting to the rain soaked life of Vancouver, BC where he now resides. Andy likes to hop between coding and designing, sometimes mixing the two together and making his code look “pretty.” He has been tinkering with WordPress for a number of years both in theme design and plugin development. When away from his screen, Andy loves to watch and play all kinds of sports. Being in Canada, hockey holds a special place in his heart.

Warwick Poole Systemologist
 
Blog: Linux Internet
Warwick (Rick) was born and raised in South Africa and has lived on a few continents looking for its equal. He currently hangs his toothbrush in New York with infinitely patient wife, Michelle. A mid 90s tryst with Mosaic, FreeBSD, Usenet, and IRC sparked an interest in Open Source software. If the Internet didn’t exist he would have been a wildlife photographer or a small plane pilot. Preferably both. Somehow his colleagues haven’t yet detected he’s a vegetarian. Don’t tell the CBBQTT…

Toni Schneider Band Manager
 Toni Schneider
Blog: Toni’s Garage
Toni grew up on Lake Zurich in Switzerland and moved to the fabled Silicon Valley to study computer science at Stanford. He started in the tech world in the realm of 3D sound and virtual reality, then came back to the real world and was the CEO of a great little company called Oddpost, which was AJAX before it was cool (or had a name). Oddpost was acquired by Yahoo (it became the new Yahoo Mail) and Toni was a VP at Yahoo where he created their developer network. As CEO of Automattic he hopes to introduce fondue as a light and healthy companion snack to blogging.

Joseph Scott Bug Exorcist
 Joseph Scott
Blog: Random Networks
Joseph is a California native, moving to Utah with his wife and two daughters. He got hooked on email when it meant dialing into a BBS with a 2400 baud modem and ended up memorizing way too much of the AT command set. Access to the Internet changed all that and going to work for an ISP cemented that shift. It also exposed to him to the world of open source, starting with FreeBSD in 1996. From there he spent a number of years in IT doing a little bit of everything.

Alex Shiels Code Bloke
 Alex Shiels
Blogs: Threshold State, Flight Path

Matt Thomas The Detailer
 Matt Thomas
Blog: I am Matt Thomas.
Matt has been a designer since before he knew what that meant. As a child, his parents would frequently return home to find their furniture re-arranged, art re-hung, and tables re-set. Ever since, Matt’s been interested in making things simpler, more beautiful, and more fun to use. Despite a four-year love affair with print design while obtaining his B.F.A. from the Savannah College of Art and Design, Matt’s loving the life of a web designer. He lives on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay with his trusty sidekick, Maggie. And most importantly, he doesn’t mind being the “other Matt” at Automattic.

Wordpress themes

Wordpress themes

If you're blogging on the Wordpress platform,the first thing you'll probably do is to install a new Wordpress theme. Even if you've been blogging for years you may still be a theme "addict", wasting a lot of time doing minor modifications that when summed up merely distracts you from blogging itself.

It's actually easy to see why this single aspect of running a blog demands so much attention. With the correct theme, you can accommodate all the nifty little widgets and codes, and may also mean better search engine rankings and tons of fresh traffic every day.

So what are the factors you need to consider to make theme-hunting easier? Here are five important ingredients:

Theme Width and Columns

Typically, Wordpress themes come in 2-column or 3-column formats, with widths ranging from 500 pixels to 960 pixels wide. If you're blogging for non-profit purposes, a 2-column theme can look more compact and reader-friendly. Since you have less images of products or links to other sites to display, you can focus exclusively on the content without leading readers away from your site.

On the other hand, if you're blogging for profit, you may want to consider a 3-column Wordpress theme that will be able to accommodate your Google Adsense, Chitika and Text Link Ads codes comfortably without squeezing everything in the content area. 3-column themes allow room for expansion, but in the event that you've filled up all available space with ads, then it's time you removed the non-performers and use only the advertising services that work for that particular blog.

Use of Images and Icons

A theme with images and icons can look good, but it rarely increases your web traffic or subscriber base. In fact, most "A-list" bloggers have plain vanilla themes with a simple logo on top. Reducing the amount of images also means faster loading time and less stress on your servers. This vital aspect of server load become apparent only if you have tens of thousands of visitors a day, but it's worth designing for the future.

A image-laden theme also distracts readers from the content itself. This is the reason why blogs like Engadget and Tech Crunch use images intensively in the content areas to add value to a post, but the theme itself is simple and rather minimalist.

Ideally, a theme should allow you to use your own header image for stronger branding purposes, yet replace images and icons with links and text, or just not use them at all unless absolutely necessary.

Compatibility with Plugins

Another time-sucking activity is installing plugins that improve the functionality of your site. There's a plugin out there for almost everything you want to do with your blog, but while most of them are free and easily obtainable, it's not always easy to install the plugins and insert the codes into your Wordpress theme.

If your theme is too complicated, it may be a headache to even insert that one line of code you need to make a plugin work. This is often the case with advanced AJAX-based Wordpress themes that have too many files and heavy coding. I've always preferred a simpler themes that stick to the default Wordpress theme as much as possible, so I can cut back on the learning curve and just get on with my life.

Remember that the purpose of your blog is to deliver timely, relevant content to your readers, Any theme that preserves or improves the reader experience is good, any theme that subtracts from the experience is bad.

Search Engine Optimization

A lot can be said about search engine optimization, but at the end of the day if you have content worth reading eventually you'll get the rankings you deserve. That doesn't mean that you don't need SEO; all it means is that what you really need to do is to make sure:
- Your
- All your blog content titles use the H1 tag, with the main keywords used instead of non-descriptive text for better SEO relevance
- Your theme has clean source codes, and if possible all formatting is linked to an external CSS file which you can edit independently

Plug-And-Play Ease of Use

Can the theme be installed easily on an existing blog without having to move things around? Can the same theme be used and customized easily on your other blogs? These are some additional things you may want to consider when theme-shopping, especially if every minute of downtime on your blog may mean lost revenue.

While it's hard to make comparisons due to the sheer amount of free and paid themes out there, it's still a good idea to have a test blog site. Test any theme you plan on using, and make sure your test blog is also fitted with all the plugins and miscellaneous widgets used on your real blog. The last thing you want is for your readers start seeing weird error messages on your blog.

At the end of the day, a theme is just a theme. Instead of spending your time installing them, it may be wiser to outsource the task and focus more on your readers. Alternatively, you may also want to consider buying "plug-and-play" themes for a reasonable price. Dennis De' Bernardy of ProWordpress.com has probably one of the best themes around, but if you're short on cash there are certainly cheaper alternatives.

The most Important Directory site [ DMOZ ]

Today, I received an email from a DMOZ editor, informing me that he found this blog informative have listed it in the most important directory and the most difficult one to get listed - DMOZ (Open Directory Project). You can find my blog listed here: Computers: Internet: FAQs: Help and Tutorials. And I didn't even submit my blog to the directory! (I have actually wanted to submit a long time ago, but I couldn't decide on what category to place it in. For submission to DMOZ, choosing the right category is important). I indeed feel greatly honored.

The editor also inform me that many bloggers do not know about the basics of submission to DMOZ (Open Directory Project) and pointed me to a site providing tips for getting listed in the DMOZ Directory (Open Directory Project. Google uses the DMOZ listing and has a similar directory called Google Directory and an examination of the two directories showed that it has the same categories, but arranged in different order.

You can find tips at Tips for getting site listed in Google Directory on getting faster approval of listing. Surf over there and read the useful tips before you try to submit your site to the most important directory.

I do feel I deserve it. Just refer to the notes of appreciation and thanks I have compiled at Compilation of comments in Blogger and emails received.

Maroon 5 Wake Up Call Lyrics


Maroon 5 Wake Up Call Lyrics


I didn’t hear what you were saying
I live on raw emotion baby
I answer questions never maybe
And I’m not kind if you betray me
So who the hell are you to say we
Never would have made it babe

If you needed love
Well then ask for love
Could have given love
Now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault
Cause you both deserve
What is coming now
So don’t say a word

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Care about me?
I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
Come around here? I don’t think so.

[Breakdown]

Would have bled to make you happy
You didn’t need to treat me that way
And now you beat me at my own game
And now I find you sleeping soundly
And your lovers screaming loudly
Hear a sound and hit the ground

[Bridge]

If you needed love
Well then ask for love
Could have given love
Now I’m taking love
And it’s not my fault
Cause you both deserve
What’s coming now
So don’t say a word

[Wake Up Call lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
Come around here?
I don’t feel so bad, I don’t feel so bad, I don’t feel so bad

[Breakdown]

I’m so sorry darling
Did I do the wrong thing?
Oh, what was I thinking?
Is his heart still beating?

Woah oh ohh

[Chorus]

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
Come around here? I don’t feel so bad

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?
Don’t you care about me? I don’t think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won’t come around here anymore
No, he won’t come around here. I don’t feel so bad

I don’t feel so bad (Wake up call)
I don’t feel so bad (Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed)
I don’t feel so bad (Don’t you care about me anymore?)
Care about me? I don’t feel so bad.
Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don’t you care about me anymore?

How To Register a Domain Name

How To Register a Domain Name


From Apply Now,
Your Guide to Online Business / Hosting.
One of the first steps in setting up an online businessis to register your domain name. It’s very easy to do, as long as youknow where to go and understand the terminology.Difficulty: EasyTime Required: 10 minutesHere’s How:First,make sure your domain name has not been registered by someone else bydoing a "whois" search. Most domain registration sites maintain a whoisdatabase, but I generally use VeriSign.com .Enter the domain name you want to check into the online form. Do not enter "www."Some"whois" search forms make you enter a code contained in an on-screengraphic. This is to prevent overuse of the system by automated systems.If you are asked for the code, enter it.The results of thewhois search will tell you if anyone already owns the name. If the nameis taken, you will have to select another one. If it is unregistered,you can proceed.Select a Domain Name Registrar. This is thecompany that will manage the domain registration for you. I have puttogether a list of low cost registrars. You can find others at ICANN.Enter your desired Domain Name on your Registrar’s web site.Select the number of years you want to pay for. Paying for more than one year in advance may save you a little money.Enteryour contact information. There are four types of contacts: theregistrant or owner, technical, billing, and administrative. You mayuse the same name for all if you wish.If your registrar offersyou the option, select a private or public registration. A privateregistration costs more, but will protect your identity and may cutdown on the amount of SPAM you receive.Point your new domainto a Web server or "park" the domain. If you have not yet built a Website, you should park the name with the registrar. If you have built asite, you must tell the registrar on which Web server the site islocated. This information is provided by your Web host.At thispoint, you are probably done! It may take up to 4 to 8 hours for .comand .net domains to become active and about 24-48 hours for otherdomain extensions.

You can Also register you own Domains, and Reseller. Then submite your Domain to Many World Site Directories and thats Free!

Why is link exchanging important?

Why is link exchanging important?



Link Popularity

Link Exchanging is important because most of the search engines use the number of links that point to your site, (called "Back Links"), to determine how popular your site is. Link popularity is the number external sites that point or link to your site. It is used as part of an algorithm to determine where your site will come up when a search is requested i.e. Search Engine Ranking. The higher your search engine ranking the more traffic you will receive.



Link Relevance

Another part of the algorithm to determine search engine ranking is link relevance. One might think that if the search engines just look at how many sites link to mine, all I have to do is create a huge amount of junk sites and link them to mine. It’s not that simple. Each site has its own "page rank" or "importance". The old adage "the more sites that point to your site the better" is not as accurate as it used to be. The quality of the site that links to yours is very important. A page that has a huge ranking will increase your popularity more than page that has none. Hence a new philosophy has been adopted: "The higher the quality of the link, the higher quality of my site". At Link Exchange Experts, we pride ourselves on maintaining a directory of quality links that will help you gain page rank and search engine rank. And you don’t have to spend hundreds of hours trading links with other webmasters.



Linking has become more and more important. That’s why we are here to help you. The more quality links you have the more popular your site will be. The more popular your site is the more traffic you will receive. And that’s what its all about!

AdSense Integrated with FeedBurner Site Ads

This is a Good News For Adsense Publisher Today!


AdSense Integrated with Feedburner Site Ads


There’s really nothing spookier than hollow, empty ad spaces rattling around your blog and/or web site, putting no cash in your pocket nor any extra hob- in your goblin. Before you banish these underperforming idlers to some distant house upon a lonely hill, we recommend redeeming them with a chance to boost your earning potential. This Halloween, the Feedburner development team is asking those of us who do the announcing around here to make note of the now-available integration of Feedburner site ads and AdSense.


This newly integrated capability — designed just for Feedburner-powered content like yours — puts relevant AdSense content ads to work on your blog and/or website. (Note: AdSense options for feeds not available at this time.) If you choose to activate this service, you can run a 300x250 or 468x60 text or image AdSense ad on your blog. The ad will appear below the first item on your site and archive pages once you have installed the necessary code. Ad content is automatically targeted to complement your site and you will earn revenue each time visitors click on ads. You can even customize the colors (or use a saved color palette from your AdSense account) so the ad unit fits your site’s look and feel. Check out these 300x250 examples below.


adsense_300x250.gif


RainRecording.png


You don’t have to be part of Feedburner’s ad network to put these ads on your site, but be sure to review Google’s policies for participating to make sure your site’s content is eligible, as these ads are subject to AdSense terms and conditions. Once you’re signed up for AdSense, you can check out all the other ways you can monetize your site with ads near your non-feed-powered content. If you are currently part of the Feedburner Ad Network (FAN), and you’ve configured your site to run ads, AdSense ads will be inserted on your web site only when there are no Feedburner Ad Network ads available for those placements (if you choose).


Get Started
To activate the service, sign in to your Feedburner account, select your feed and go to the Monetize tab where you can connect this service to your AdSense account (if you already have one), or create a new AdSense account (if you don’t). This service is currently available to members of FAN and all manner of Feedburner publishers who go >bump< in the night, but haven’t yet joined FAN. (Note: If you have enabled FeedFlare for your site, you’ve already added the magic code that makes these ads go where they need to go, so connect your account to AdSense on the Monetize tab and you’re ready to earn!)


Earning additional revenue doesn’t scare me, I t-tell you what. Where can I learn more?

What is link exchanges and pagerank

Link Exchanges


Link Exchanging is the process of exchanging text links or banner links between websites. Webmasters exchange links to improve traffic through numerous inbound links so users on other websites can click through. Exchanging links is normally a free process (unless you choose to use a link exchange program which charges fees), making link exchanges cost effective. Another benefit of using a link exchange service is that it helps improve placement in the search engines. Link exchanges have been used by webmasters for years as a means of direct marketing. Recently, this practice has gained more popularity among webmasters due to the fact search engines prefer websites that have many inbound links, thus improving positions in the Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs). To the search engines, this is an accurate means of determining the importance of websites. This practice by the search engines to rank websites has helped lead to the popularity of linked-based search engines, like Google. Thus, link exchange software and services have become popular. There are various ways to initiate a link exchange with another website. The primary way of beginning a link exchange is to email another webmaster and ask to exchange links. Another way to find websites looking to exchange links is to visit webmaster discussion boards. These websites might have link exchange forums or link exchange directories where webmasters can request link exchanges from a specific category or have open requests to allow any website to exchange a link. With the importance of link exchanges, many types of link exchange websites have emerged as a source for webmasters. There are 2 types of link exchange directories. Paid directories make the process of exchanging links easier, but cost money and usually require software to be placed on the webmasters website to assist with the link exchange. Free link exchange directories have no cost, except they require the webmaster to manually add each website. Webmasters can have complete control over links when part of a free link exchange. Recently some marketing companies have stated that search engines are no longer placing a heavy importance on reciprocal links. The consensus is that popularity of a website is now gauged by incoming one way links. The experts also agree that in addition to having numerous inbound links, the relevance of the linking websites is very important. Link exchanges between complimenting websites is important. Webmasters do not have to link directly with competitors, but should link with websites that have industry relevance. Having a website link with no relevance could potentially negatively affect Search Engine Result Pages. Websites that have completed many link exchanges will usually experience increased traffic through direct clicks and search engine results. There are various ways for webmasters to find linking websites through direct email contact or link exchange directories. It is important for webmasters to check the relevancy of the links that are being adding as links that have little or no relevance might negatively affect their placement. The use of link exchanges by webmasters will continue to be an important and useful means of marketing websites and improving search engine placement.


PageRanks-Example


Note:





Mathematical PageRanks (out of 100) for a simple network (PageRanks reported by google are rescaled logarithmically). Page C has a higher PageRank than Page E, even though it has fewer links to it: the link it has is much higher valued. A web surfer who chooses a random link on every page (but with 15% likelihood jumps to a random page on the whole web) is going to be on Page E for 8.1% of the time. (The 15% likelihood of jumping to an arbitrary page corresponds to a damping factor of 85%.) Without damping, all web surfers would eventually end up on Pages A, B, or C, and all other pages would have PageRank zero. Page A is assumed to link to all pages in the web, because it has no outgoing links.

Pagerank


PageRank is a link analysis algorithm that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the World Wide Web , with the purpose of "measuring" its relative importance within the set. The algorithm may be applied to any collection of entities with reciprocal quotations and references. The numerical weight that it assigns to any given element E is also called the PageRank of E and denoted by PR(E). PageRank was developed at Stanford University by Larry Page (hence the name Page-Rank[1]) and later Sergey Brin as part of a research project about a new kind of search engine. The project started in 1995 and led to a functional prototype, named Google, in 1998. Shortly after, Page and Brin founded Google Inc. , the company behind the Google search engine. While just one of many factors which determine the ranking of Google search results, PageRank continues to provide the basis for all of Google’s web search tools.[2] The name PageRank is a trademark of Google. The PageRank process has been patented (U.S. Patent 6,285,999 ). The patent is not assigned to Google but to Stanford University. :-)

Tips blogging: Adding a front page to your blog

1. Go to the Dashboard, and clicking on "Layout".





2. On the sidebar, clicking on "Adding New Element"








3. Type in something in the content, then save it.








4. Drag the "widget" to the "Blog Post" area.





Now the blog would look like this:







It'll be shown in front of the other posts, whether you are in home page or in any individual posts.



To change this widget such as it'll show on frontpage only, you need to modify the code by adding two more lines. Go back to Dashboard->Layout, then click on Template->Edit HTML. Also click on the "Expanded Widget Templates".











Then look for these lines:




Add these two bold lines as follow:



From now on, you'll have a different frontpage than the rest of the blog. Your blog will somewhat functioning like a normal webpage instead of a blog.

The advantage of this method is that the text widget can be used effectively so add picture and other texts in "compose mode" to visually make your front page look better.

What is Adsense?

What is AdSense?

AdSense is Google's program for placing its AdWords ads on non-Google websites such as this one.
AdSense lets website owners like you and me make money easily and fast without even selling anything. In fact you can often start earning in under 24 hours and when you get paid, it is Google that sends you a check!

You don't have to run a large site or have much traffic to make money and AdSense works for small enthusiast or hobby sites as well as larger operations.

AdSense is easy - but here's how to make real money

Some websites make a lot of money from AdSense (thousands of dollars a month!) whilst others make very little and there are many complex reasons why earnings differ.

I've been using AdSense since it was launched and am hugely enthusiastic about it. I've written a 5-day course about AdSense that explains

where the money comes from
what you have to do to start out fast
how much money you can make
what clicks are worth
how to put a rocket-engine behind your earnings
whether you can cheat
how to build a site for AdSense fast and easily
how to get going without spending any money
It's free and there's no obligation whatsoever.

To get the first installment in your in-tray in a few minutes just complete the form below.

I also discuss some unique and risky experiments I've done in my AdSense lab as I unpicked the AdSense system. (I was lucky not to get banned for doing some of these! Don't try them yourself. You can also read what Google had to say to me about them.)

Like a link to a presentation by Google about AdSense that few people know about? Written for advertisers, it explains Google's view on why AdSense is so useful for businesses. You can get it here too.

INFO: About Wordpress.com

Introducing:

WordPress is a blog publishing system written in PHP and backed by a MySQL database. WordPress is the official successor of b2\cafelog, developed by Michel Valdrighi. The name WordPress was suggested by Christine Selleck, a friend of lead developer Matt Mullenweg.

The latest release of WordPress is version 2.3.1, released on 26 October 2007. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License.

Features:

Integrated link management
Search engine-friendly permalink structure
Extensible plugin support
Nested categories and multiple categories for articles
TrackBack and Pingback
Typographic filters for proper formatting and styling of text
Static Pages
Multiple Authors
Can store a list of users that visit your blog
Can block a person's IP address
Tag support
History:

b2\cafelog, more commonly known as simply b2 or cafelog was the precursor to WordPress. b2\cafelog was estimated to have been employed on approximately 2000 blogs as of May 2003. It was also written in PHP for use with MySQL by Michel Valdrighi, who is now a contributing developer to WordPress. Though WordPress is the official successor, another project, b2evolution, is also in active development.

WordPress first appeared in 2003 as a joint effort between Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little to create a fork of b2.

In 2004 the licensing terms for the competing Movable Type package was changed by Six Apart, and many of its users migrated to WordPress – causing a marked, and continuing, growth in WordPress's popularity
Realease:

WordPress releases are named after well known jazz musicians. WordPress 1.2 was codenamed Mingus (after Charles Mingus).

WordPress 1.5 was released mid-February 2005 and codenamed Strayhorn. It added a range of new vital features. One such is being able to manage static pages. This allows content pages to be created and managed outside the normal blog chronology and has been the first step away from being simple blog management software to becoming a full content management system. Another is the new template/theme system, which allows users to easily activate and deactivate "skins" for their sites. WordPress was also equipped with a new default template (codenamed Kubrick) designed by Michael Heilemann.

WordPress 2.0 was released in December 2005 and codenamed Duke. This version added rich editing, better administration tools, image uploading, faster posting, an improved import system, and completely overhauled the back end. WordPress 2.0 also offered various improvements to plugin developers.

On 22 January 2007, another major upgrade, WordPress 2.1, codenamed Ella, was released. In addition to correcting security issues, version 2.1 featured a redesigned interface and enhanced editing tools (including integrated spell check and auto save), improved content management options, and a variety of code and database optimizations.

WordPress 2.2, codenamed Getz, was released on 16 May 2007. Version 2.2 featured widget support for templates, updated Atom feed support, and speed optimizations. Wordpress 2.2 was initially slated to have a revised taxonomy system for categories, as well as tags, but a proposed revision led to the feature being held back from release.

WordPress 2.3, codenamed Dexter, was released 24 September 2007. Version 2.3 features native tagging support, new taxonomy system for categories, easy notification of updates as well as other interface improvements. 2.3 also fully supports Atom 1.0 along with the publishing protocol. WordPress 2.3 also includes some much needed security fixes.
Vurnerbilities:

BlogSecurity currently maintains a list of WordPress vulnerabilities.

In January 2007, many high profile Search engine optimization (SEO) blogs, as well as many low-profile commercial blogs featuring Adsense were targeted and attacked with a WordPress exploit.

A separate vulnerability on one of the project site's web servers allowed an attacker to introduce exploitable code in the form of a back door to some downloads of WordPress 2.1.1. The 2.1.2 release addressed this issue; an advisory released at the time advised all users to upgrade immediately.

In May 2007, a study revealed that 98% of WordPress blogs being run are exploitable.

In a June 2007 interview, Stefen Esser, the founder of the PHP Security Response Team, spoke critically of WordPress's security track record, citing problems with the application's architecture that make it unnecessarily difficult to write code that is secure against SQL injection vulnerabilities, as well as other problems.

MultyBlogging:

WordPress supports one weblog per installation, though multiple concurrent copies may be run from different directories if configured to use separate database tables.

Wordpress MultiUser is a fork of WordPress created to allow simultaneous blogs to exist within one installation. Wordpress MU makes it possible for any one with a website to host their own blogging community, control and moderate all the blogs from a single dashboard. Wordpress MU adds a new data table for each blog. Notable communities that use MU are WordPress.com, Edublogs.org and Harvard University.

Lyceum is another enterprise-edition of Wordpress. Lyceum, unlike WordPress MU, stores all of its information in a set number of database tables. Notable communities that use Lyceum are TeachFor.Us (Teach For America teachers' blogs), BodyBlogs and the Hopkins Blogs


Developers:

WordPress development is led by Ryan Boren and Matt Mullenweg. Mullenweg and Mike Little were co-founders of the project.

The contributing developers include:

Dougal Campbell
Mark Jaquith
Donncha O'Caoimh
Andy Skelton
Michel Valdrighi
Peter Westwood
Though developed much by the community surrounding it, WordPress is closely associated with Automattic, where some of WordPress's main contributing developers are employees.

WordPress is also in part developed by its community, among which are the WP testers, a group of people that volunteer time and effort to testing each release. They have early access to nightly builds, Beta versions and Release Candidates. Upgrading to these versions, they can find and report errors to a special mailing list, or the project's Trac tool.

Sponsored Themes:
On 10 July 2007, following a discussion on the WordPress ideas forum and a post by Mark Ghosh in his blog Weblog Tools Collection, Matt Mullenweg announced that the official WordPress theme directory at http://themes.wordpress.net would no longer host themes containing sponsored links. Although this move was criticised by designers and users of sponsored themes, it was applauded by some WordPress users who consider such themes to be spam.
