Let me try to insert an Image..

Hmm… Neat.. It showed me a window where I can edit most of the common photo related options, like I can Rotate, crop, shadow and lots of other option. It also suggested me that My image is too big for the blog and is good to be cropped. It also let me shrink the image to fit it into the blog. Wow.. I don’t have to touch Photoshop for a lot of things.. This theme uses Custom Fields to insert the thumbnail. Let me try doing that.. I found that in Extra>WordPress Options menu.

Hmm, I find a problem here.. Usually in WordPress I upload the thumbnail Image and then use that image url into the Custom Field with Thumbnail key to insert the post thumbnail. I guess now I have to upload the thumbnail Image manually. It would be good if they give me a screen where I can only upload images and get the url to those images. This would help solve the problem I am facing now. Well since this is a demo post where I am kind of reviewing the application as I am exploring.

There is one funny part in this software, actually it is not the fault with the software, but it seems spell check says “Blog” not found replace it with Log lol.. Well, as we all know there is no word in English Dictionary called as Blog. Actually Blog is derived from the words Web log. Anyways I just added it to the Dictionary.

What next.. I see the publish button.. Let me Go ahead and press it..

WOW, perfect.. These lines I am adding after posting it. It works cool.. BTW you can download BlogDesk and try it yourself. It works like charm for me. Matter of fact It makes me feel write more which would end up in longer posts.. Well that is good isn’t it. WordPress is not twitter .

Happy Blogging..

I love Askimet and there is a reason why. For the starters Askimet is nothing but a wordpress plugin that can’t stand spam.Well who can ? Before Askimet I was using Spam Karma, which saved me from over 10K spams but at later time it was generating a lot of problem. I was looking for an alternative and there came Askimet. Only couple of times I have found this plugin as marked a genuine comment as a spam other than that it has been perfect in detecting spam. It has already caught 5,599 spam well thats an impressive number. Imagine the time it has saved, else I would have to delete them manually one by one.

Askimet is surely a smart plugin because recently there was a comment like

“I did not understand some part of this article name may be I should refer some more resources. “

This comment looks so natural as it is in perfect english and it automatically adds the article name into the comment. It doesnt carry any spammy link, but in the url field it has it’s url. To my amazement Askimet detected as a spam.Very smart Askimet .

I recommend all fellow bloggers to install this plugin into your wordpress blog. If you haven’t still, you are missing something very important.

Steps to Install Askimet

1. Download Askimet plugin and unzip.
2. Upload the plugin file to your WordPress plugins directory inside of wp-content.
3. Activate it from the plugins menu inside of WordPress.
4. Enter your API key.
5. Forget that spam was ever a problem.

Well a small fact:

93% of all comments are spam!! So let this be the reason for you to use this plugin.

In a previous post regarding SEO,one of my blog reader Ravikant had pointed out that I missed sitemaps. Sitemaps are very essential part of your website. Sitemaps are nothing but a page that links to all the contents/sections of your website.

Why sitemaps ?

Usually when it comes SEO we need to establish a balance both the visitors and the search engine bots. So, sometimes we compromise on design to make it search engine friendly or sometimes we need such designs for our users to make them comfortable on the website at the cost of search engine. So a perfect balance must be maintained as both search engine and visitors matters to us the most. But fortunately with sitemap it serves both i.e. the visitors and search engine perfectly.

• It helps the user to understand your website navigation structure.If he gets lost,he can follow the sitemap to browse through the website.
• It helps the search engine by listing all the links on a single page, this way it becomes easier for the search engine to index our pages by visiting these links.

After having a sitemap on your blog you will find out that users are staying on your blog for a longer duration by reading more contents. The chances of your website being bookmarked increases, because when he see’s the sitemap he finds many new articles and contents which he never knew existed. Not many of the visitors will explore through your monthly archive. Sitemap provides a shorter and a quicker way to explore the site contents.

With search engine you will give it an opportunity to explorer and index the pages which it could not index for some reason, simple reason being it never found it. The ultimate goal of SEO is to get maximum pages of your website indexed by the search engine.

Installing sitemaps

I found this really interesting wordpress plugin that automatically generates the sitemap as your keep on updating your blog. You can find this plugin here. You can see my site’s sitemap here.

This is from there website

This plugin creates a sitemap for your WordPress powered site. This is not just another XML sitemap plugin, but rather a true sitemap generator which is highly customizable from its own options page in the WordPress admin panel. Some of its features include: support for multi-level categories and pages, category/page exclusion, multiple-page generation with navigation, permalink support, choose what to display, what order to list items in, show comment counts and/or post dates, and much more.

Upload the plugin to your wordpress plugin directory and activate the plugin in your admin panel. Once that is done go to options>sitemap plugin and set your preferences. If you are using permalink enter the text as sitemap.

Go to create new page select code and insert <!– ddsitemapgen –> into the page and give the page title as sitemap and save the page. You can find more insturctions on installation of this plugin at authors website.

As I started faced a strange problem with permalinks, because it was mandatory for me to maintain the same url structure as the tutorials are indexed into many tutorial directories and breaking on these links may mean loosing traffic. Also cooljeba.com is doing pretty good search engine wise so didn’t want to break the trend . So ladies and gentlemen get ready for new fresh tutorials in near future. A new age has begun for cooljeba.com he he..
