5 things to avoid in Blogging World

Today i’m giving tutorial to beginner blogger, beginner blogger only not pro blogger ok ? To be a success blogger, many “Don’t” we must always keep it in our heart or brain or leg, you can either read it or ignore it, because this is what my mind is flashing today.

I’m going to write 5 “Don’t” in blogging world .

1) Don’t copy content, you can be dead in few days if you keep copying other’s content. Write your own content with your own word, you can refer information but don’t salin copy bulat-bulat.

2) Don’t listen to anyone who critic you, take their comments as tutorial. Don’t give up if they critic you, say you this kenot lar that kenot lar, don’t bother them and continue your blog.

3) Don’t give up ! Keep blogging, don’t update your blog once a few weeks or month, you can loss your reader because they thought you die already. Don’t feel lazy to write, actually writting has many advantage 1, one of them is improve your english.

4) Don’t care if you never earn any bucks from blogging (For those who want to earn money), blogging world is endless one, doesn’t mean a 80years old people can’t blogging, so keep blogging and write good content.

5) Don’t shy or behave, blog is yours 1, blog whatever you want , don bother what people said, blog in your own way, don’t lost your personality ! Be yourself, write it in your own style. Don’t “chap siao” (bother) people like it or not, just blog ok ? They don’t appreciate you, I appreciate you !

5 “Don’t” that i write very common in blogging world right ? No why, this is what i face and what i learn from them ! Some of them critic me before, i don’t care, because i wan blog, and i like blogging since the first day i start ! I don’t care you want read or not, i will keep writting, continue my blogging world !

This is the attitude you should have in blogging world, don’t give up !!You can also write your “Don’t” and share it here with all of us … Cheers !!

New Wordpress 2.60 launched

I realized that there is another newer version Wordpress 2.60 is launched 2days ago. I saw the “Wordpress 2.60 is available! Please updated now” in my wordpress cpanel. I not update yet because i’m not dare to update anything, worry that there is an error may cause all my file or articles gone in a minute. So i may do more research about it before i update to Wordpress 2.60.

I read some posts in Lowyat.net, some of the blogger said that newer Wordpress may not support old version plugin, maybe there is some error, maybe it cause your file or post lost, many of “maybe” there, so i’m not going to upgrade anything since i satisfy with my Wordpress 2.51 right now. Don’t think i will make any changes if there is not much changes on the Wordpress 2.60, or the changes doesn’t not help me.

Information below from Wordpress BlogHere are some of the smaller features and improvements in 2.6:

1) Word count! Never guess how many words are in your post anymore.

2) Image captions, so you can add sweet captions like Political Ticker does under your images.

3) Bulk management of plugins.

4) A completely revamped image control to allow for easier inserting, floating, and resizing. It’s now fully integrated with the WYSIWYG.

5) Drag-and-drop reordering of Galleries.

6) Plugin update notification bubble.

7) Customizable default avatars.

8) You can now upload media when in full-screen mode.

9) Remote publishing via XML-RPC and APP is now secure (off) by default, but you can turn it on easily through the options screen.

10) Full SSL support in the core, and the ability to force SSL for security.

11) You can now have many thousands of pages or categories with no interface issues.

12) Ability to move your wp-config file and wp-content directories to a custom location, for “clean” SVN checkouts.

13) Select a range of checkboxes with “shift-click.”

14) You can toggle between the Flash uploader and the classic one.

15) A number of proactive security enhancements, including cookies and database interactions.

16) Stronger better faster versions of TinyMCE, jQuery, and jQuery UI.

17) Version 2.6 fixes approximately 194 bugs.

They also provided a brief video tour of Wordpress 2.6 too, have a look you will more understand about Wordpress 2.60 !

The conclusion, i’m not going to upgrade untill there is someone upgrade without any doubt or error. Thanks Wordpress for keep updating Wordpress Version to fix bug in Wordpress !

Anyone of you upgrade to Wordpress 2.60 already ? Please share with us your experience.

How to get relevant adsense ads

How many times have you seen totally irrelevant ads appearing on your page, for which your readers have no interest. You are losing valuable clicks here because one your visitors might get confused and leave your site, second he might not even come back later. To avoid such disasters you need to ensure that the ads that appear on your website is relevant to the content that is on the site.

The ads are served on your site based upon the following parameters:

1) URL of the site
2) Title text of the site
3) Text of links
4) Text of links that link to your site (appearing on other sites)
5) Content of links that point to external pages
6) Keywords appearing frequently on the site
7) Search Engines queries that lead to the page etc…

The above broad parameters need to be kept in mind while driving Adsense Ad Units to your site. While you might be able to control the text of your articles/post on the blogs but the text of comments made by your visitors is not in your hands and they can be totally in tangent with the content of the post/page. To overcome this very important problem section targeting needs to be used for effective ad serving. This is done by enclosing the relevant content in the following HTML tags;

Your content

This will ensure that the adsense crawler will only read the content enclosed within these tags and ignore (for the purpose of Ad Serving) other text on the page.
