Wordpress 2.3 Due Out Today - Native Tag Support Yay

Monday, September 24th, 2007

So, I have been hesitant to continue to upgrade Wordpress on this site whenever a new release is out for a number of reasons. I have hacked up a number of the native functions and add-on plugins and since I am such a rookie, I have not made a log of what I have done. […]

Google Trusted Host Followup

Tuesday, August 15th, 2006

To follow up on my Google trusted host idea, it looks like that it is not necessary to have “at least one link pointing to your site” as it used to be, to get a website into the Google index. I launched a new subdomain on the golod.com domain that has a Wordpress blog on […]

Trusted Domain vs. Trusted Links +Google

Monday, August 7th, 2006

Well, I am not sure what any of this means, but I put up a new subdomain on golod.com over the weekend…actually on Friday afternoon around 5pm. The new site was indexed in Google after I posted one blog post and later put a link on the golod.com blogroll. I checked to see […]

Making Wordpress, Google News Friendly

Sunday, August 6th, 2006

I have been working on a couple of projects lately and they have been taking up all of my time…which is a good thing. However, something that I have wanted to do for a while is to create a few, topic-based blogs, that have a number of knowledgeable contributors providing the content. I […]

Spammin’ and Jammin’

Thursday, June 15th, 2006

I like that phrase. Apparently, some other jokers do too. I just got my little Spam Karma report for yesterday for golod.com and there were 110 comment spams caught since this same time yesterday. That is some serious spam yo. I have to say, if you have a WordPress blog, Spam […]

Spam Karma 2 Bug Reported

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

If you are using the Spam Karma 2 plugin for Wordpress, you should grab the latest update as there was a pretty big bug in the last release. SK2 is pretty awesome and the dude behind it seems to be on top of his game. I install it on all of our WordPress blogs. […]

Feed Subscription Button Maker

Friday, January 20th, 2006

Just noticed a really cool feed subscription button maker that fellow DP’er TwisterMc has put together. If you can find a subscription that TwisterMc has not covered in this cool little tool, then you probably win some kind of prize. If you use Wordpress like most of us do over there, then you […]

One More Reason to Dump Blogger

Wednesday, January 11th, 2006

Ok, so it is no secret that I am a big fan of Wordpress blogs. I started using Blogger.com blogs, but have since seen the light and moved many blogs over to WordPress or left them in the posting dust. I have converted a few over using the existing Blogger Import tools that […]

Performancing FireFox Blogging Extension

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

I guess I forgot to mention this last week…imagine that. The guys (are there any girls over there? I haven’t noticed any) over at Performancing have put out a pretty nice FireFox Blogging extension.  If you use or tried out Flock, it basically […]

Submit Site Feeds to Yahoo! Search and Site Explorer

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

Yahoo! just announced that you can now submit Site Explorer feeds directly to Yahoo! just like you can with Google Sitemaps. Yahoo! supports just about anything you want to throw at them inclucing RSS 0.9, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, Atom 0.3, a text file with a list of URLs, each URL at the start […]

Great Amazon AWS WordPress Plugin

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005

I was thinking that it would really be great to have an Amazon AWS plugin for WordPress, and as with many other great ideas I have, I found that someone else thought it was a great idea also. Rich Manalang has created a great Amazon AWS WordPress plugin that does 99% of what I was […]

Official Adsense Blog in 2nd Place

Wednesday, November 9th, 2005

I was just poking around over at Technorati and noticed that if you search for “adsense” on the Blog Finder section, you will see that the official Adsense Blog is in 2nd place. I found that to be pretty funny. The interesting part is, there are some blogs out there that have way […]

WordPress Three Column Themes Update

Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

I just added my new Adsense Ready three column theme for WordPress blogs to my catalog of WordPress themes. I was pretty surprised at the number of people that have found and use my original three column theme and it motivated me to release my recently finished Adsense Ready theme.
The Adsense Ready is a […]

New Layout

Thursday, November 3rd, 2005

So, I would like to hear some comments on the new layout. I “finished” it up last night and I have been debating between using the background image (the shadow and cream color) or just leaving it white. White is super clean and mean, but pretty boring…according to my personal advisor. This layout […]

Flock Dev Release 0.5 Out

Thursday, November 3rd, 2005

Flock has just released Version 0.5 of their developer release. I just read the “release notes” and I can’t really see what, if anything, they have changed. I am not really sure what that is all about. If you are going to have a page for release notes, don’t you think you should […]

SEO’ing WordPress Page Titles

Tuesday, November 1st, 2005

Ok, so I just noticed that all of my WordPress blogs have the name of the blog before the title of the post. This is probably not getting the maximum benefit as far as SEO goes, of the title tag for ranking that post in the search engines. So, I went into my themes to […]

Flock It!

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

There is a new browswer in town, and his name is Flock. Flock is a suped up verison of the increasingly popular FireFox…my personal favorite…until I found Flock. For someone like me who has a number of WordPress blogs, Flock has built in blogging tools that allow you to configure an unlimited number […]

Spam Karma 2 Kicks Ass

Thursday, October 20th, 2005

Ok, this blog has been getting pounded for the past couple of weeks with comment spam. I have tried just about ever WordPress Spam plugin there is and all of the ones recommended on the WordPress Codex. Last night I came across a WordPress blog that was using Spam Karma2 and it told me […]

Monday, October 17th, 2005

If you are using the Technorati Tag Plugin for WordPress by Ben O’Neill, and have not been able to figure out what the deal is, I have the answer for you. There is a rewrite issue that seems to be cleared up by making a quick change to the rewrite rules that WordPress uses […]
