Wordpress by Examples

I have read the long tail, understand that every single post of a blog have its potential of readers. In order to encourage your reader read more about you stuff, it is good to provide links to related post. As you have reduce the research cost of your readers, at the same time, you improve your web traffics. Why reduce the research cost of your readers? Your readers may searching for some information, with your related post link, he gets what he wants in one short instead of having to queries at search engine.

If you have using wasabi related post plugin, I am here to introduce you a variant of wasabi related post, its call aizatto’s related post.

What is so special about this plugin?

related_posts(5, 10, '< li >‘, ‘< /li >‘, , , false, false);

If you are using wasabi version, you need to do this manually, with aizatto’s version, It does for you automatically.

ALTER TABLE `wp_posts` ADD FULLTEXT `post_related` (
`post_name` , `post_content`
)

This is cool, as I have a lots or RSS readers. This is one of the reason why my web traffics increases.

Aizatto suggest me that I should change the css style instead of change the codes of the plugins. But why not? Its open source anyway, and the codes is not so difficult to read.

That is the best parts, It improves web traffics and consequestly improves adsense income.

Seeing is believing
I am here to shows you few examples of blog post that uses aizatto’s related post plugins.

Drag all the way down, you can see the related post links after the post, and continues with adsense links. With the fine tuning of your related post and adsense outlook, both of them looks really native to the post.

I recommend you to try it out, this is one of the great plugins I ever have.

StumbleUpon is not a website or a firefox extension, It is a community, groups of bloggers, internet surfers, birds of feather, all flops together. It is a system that introduces you great web based on some categories! Don’t you think your blog or website is great? So lets the world knows and submit to StumbleUpon.

How it works?
When a member of StumbleUpon submit a new web to the system based on the categories he chooses, the submitted website will be in the stumble pool last for two to three days. In these two days, his submitted web will be discover by other members that stumble on the categories he chooses. If the member thinks his submitted is great, they will rank it by click on the button “I like it”. As much rank clicked as frequent the web will be discovered, this is important for generating traffics.

For those who are searching ways to do SEO may consider this. For my experience, during the migration of Linux By Examples (LBE) http://linux.byexamples.com from http://lne.blogdns.com/lbe. The traffic was been observed through google analytics. It raises from 113 to 431 and the next day 890 , 580 visits.

After this few days, LBE was no longer in the recent pool, but LBE is still appear in the first page of http://buzz.stubleupon.com under Linux category. And it wons 1727 clicks of “I like it”.

If your page is new, don’t consider to submit first. Build your page nicely before you submit, don’t lose the opportunities to promote your page in that 2 to 3 days.

If you do not have any blog or website to submit, you may want to try StumbleUpon too, it really discover great website for you, click “I like it” if you like it.

Do you know that you can make more people appreciate your blog by optimizing it to load faster?
Here’s a quick way that can make your blog loads faster by instructing Wordpress to use gzip compression to reduce your blog output size.

1. Go to your Wordpress Administration Panel
2. Select Options, then Reading
3. Check the box that reads “WordPress should compress articles (gzip) if browsers ask for them”

This will ensure that browsers supporting gzip-encoding (Mozilla, Internet Explorer) will get the compressed version of your webpage faster.

This trick is also beneficial in SEO aspect too, as some advance webcrawler supports gzip-encoding to reduce bandwidth utilisation and at the same moment saving precious crawling time.
