Search Engine Optimization

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

One (1) of seven (7) tips (Pasted below) FROM Helen @ http://valashiya.blogspot.com

1) Perhaps the most important thing is the canonical link tag. The canonical link tag represents an absolute path that you would like to represent your page in a search engines index to reduce redundant indexing. This is supported by MSN, Yahoo, and Google. http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/canonical-link-tag/

WHAT IS – canonical-Link-Tag? – It is a ‘tag’ – that tells search engines what the preferred location of this url is. + + + So how do I place that tag into my blog? – Bloody hell, Ill be here all day, and I need to go xmas shopping, and grocery shopping, or I might starve.

OK – The first two paragraphs spell it out nice and QUICK, … And there is lots more detail for those that need it. AUTHOR; Matt Cutts ~ Google Engineer -DATED;  Thursday, Feb. 12, 2009

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

FIXING BROKEN LINKs: (At url – http://tellurium.wordpress.com/)

Links pointing to GRD/blog – that I have some control over (Can be fixed) – forget very quickly just how much work (time and effort) goes into putting all these post up in the first place.

THIS; Become a way to get google to ‘Re-Crawl’ GRD/blog, and maybe (Just maybe), .. that might be resolved quicker – REFERENCE permalink post titled ‘Opps, – What NOT to do’

AND-THEN; Fixed the capitol ‘B’ problem – see post – /blog/?p=1227 – below

TWO – POSTs – detailing the problem – with having an UPPER-CASE  “B” – in the path name of your *URL* – Having an uppercase “B” – is a problem, IF handing out business cards with that url, which inturn generates “404 – Not found” error message.

Now I have three posts (Including this one) – detailing what has happened, and why – ..

Author Account

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

The “Contributor-account” – can NOT access posts created by an ‘admin-account’ – SO;  This is a little TEST – Linking to permalink http://grd.net.au/blog/?p=1227 – , a post,  created by an admin account. (Just to see what the result might be)

The Contributor-account – MUST “Submit for Review” – (Thats a pain!)

Adjusted to ‘Author’ – because for some idiot reason, it is simply NOT working. (And so now, this post has become was complete waste of time) – BUT, the ‘Publish‘ button is now available.

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

Found an interesting tutorial on electronic principles and fundamentals, .. on the surface,  it looks very nice, (Well presented), .. An seems to have a lot of good content (Technically-Acurate), .. at url -Basic Analog Circuits  – and – “Ohm’s Law and Basic Analog Circuit Concepts”

Being – interested in this stuff – (In particular “Ohms Law” I have a recent history, and the presentation could be inproved greatly with a simple diagram, or MORE (imho).

GOOGLED – Ohms Law

OhmsLawSummary

NOTE; The voltage in the example remains at 1 volt.

The relationship of current to the applied voltage and the circuit resistance is shown here.
Where (a) is the reference; -

IF the resistance is doubled from 1 to 2 ohms, the current will halve (b),

IF the resistance is cut in half, the current doubles (c)

+ + + NOW – for something completly DIFFERENT + + +

What is the 'MU' attached to wordpress?

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

Blogs.mu – Start Your Own Blogging Community

With Blogs.mu you can sign up, create and manage an unlimited number of blogs for free. Yep, that’s right – absolutely nothing! – However, if you’d like to run your own ads (and remove ours), use your own domain name, activate brilliant plugins or choose from 100+ themes then you’ll need to become a Blogs.mu Supporter. (Ie, cost $$$)

WordPress MU defined as; – Ever dream of running hundreds of thousands of blogs with a single install of WordPress? – WordPress MU, or multi-user, is designed to do exactly that. It is most famously used for WordPress.com where it serves tens of millions of hits on millions of blogs each day.
