WordPress 2.7 Rocks

I’ve installed the latest WordPress 2.7 on this blog and one other basically so that I could test it out before converting all my blogs. I must admit that I was a bit apprehensive at first because I did read a couple of bad reviews, mainly on how the new dashboard was awful and would take a lot of getting used to. I can safely say that apart from the initial shock of seeing the bulk of the Dashboard on the left hand side, I had no trouble at all acclimatising myself to the new layout.

That aside it has so many new and modified features. At the top right you will find a tag called “Screen Options” where you can select what options are shown on your screen, and I find that a great addition. Word Count is now directly below where you are typing the post, which is where it should have been from the beginning.

One of the best features is the “Sticky Post” feature which allows you to select a post to remain on your home page for as long as you want instead of having it disappear into the archives. This is a real asset if you are promoting a particular affiliate or just want to give that special post that you have worked so hard on that bit more exposure. To access this feature go to the ‘Publish’ section and where it says ‘Visibility’ click edit and presto, you are presented with the option to make it ‘Sticky’.

If you haven’t installed it yet I reckon you should do so because as far as I am concerned I would never go back to the old version. WordPress, you still Rock!

Cool Blog Links Now Live

What is Cool Blog Links? Put simply Cool Blog Links is my latest venture, one in which I hope a lot of my fellow bloggers will take advantage of. By joining this free site bloggers will have the opportunity to see how their blogs stack up against fellow bloggers. This is easily done as members get to display a tiny button on their blogs which allows visitors to vote for them. The code also keeps track of various statistics including page views, and in case you are wondering the code isn’t a script and so will not slow down the speed of of page loads.

Those members who are in the top ten also get to display their banner and will obviously get more exposure. It may be just the incentive needed to push your blog to the next level. As I hope to get the site to a PR4 status I would hope that this would also pass onto members. It hasn’t been a week since it’s been live and ‘cool blog links’ is already no1 on Google. I don’t know if it is the selection of key words or not, but the thing is that if someone is looking for ‘Cool Blog Links’ they are going to find my Cool Blog Links right at the top of page one on Google. Not bad huh? And if you are a member you will be right there when they click to check it out.

The reason for having another site started the day I was looking for a new domain to register. I decided to host it with Web Hosting Pad because apart from having one of the best deals around, they also included a free domain for life. I could see the savings in that fact alone and so I was quick to sign up. It’s a pretty specific name that I thought was great for SEO purposes and so Cool Blog Links came to fruition.

The Wayward Blogger Returns From Sydney

There may well be some of you who may have noticed that I have been a little quiet of late as far as posting and commenting are concerned. No need to worry as it has nothing to do with health and everything to do with treating my family to a well deserved holiday. Something that a lot of people don’t realize is that being self employed means that a lot of the time you need to make sacrifices and where I am concerned it has meant that we have not been able to go on many holidays as a family which is why I took my loving family to Sydney.

I will be posting most of the photos in Photos2Blog, some of which I am quite proud of. For now I am going to show you one of many different shots that I took of the Sydney Opera House.
