Content is more Valuable then SEO
You can have the best technically configured SEO optimized website but that's not what people are looking for and not what Google is looking for. You can have good content in a technically poor site and Google will make an effort to compensate for the technicalities, to recognize your content and to deliver to people who may benefit from it.
WordPress 3.3 Media Uploader – Developer Indulgence at the expense of Reliability
WordPress 3.3 introduced a new media-upload interface. If you read about this feature inside the WordPress community then it will be hailed as a "cool" feature ... and to developers or technically oriented users sitting in front of two screens it may be. However if you think about most people this "cool" feature is actually an obstacle.
The Bhudeva Story – Creating a Library of Links on WordPress
As I mentioned in the previous Bhudeva Story post, we wanted to create a library of links. We are exploring tons of links (at the moment mostly about construction as that is our main focus, so this search will extend into other subjects), filtering out (a time consuming process) the ones we will are best, most relevant and worth sharing and those that are left we want to collect in a library that we and others can access as needed.
The Bhudeva Story – Adding Sections
Bhudeva is undergoing some changes due to the natural passing of time which has led to both an expansion and refinment of the subjects covered in it and actual progress in making Bhudeva a reality ... so now, rather then being one pile of blog-based content, Bhudeva has been divided into a few clear sections.
The Bhudeva Story – Launch
When people hire me to help them create websites they do so usually because they've seen other websites I've created and like something about what they see ... they want me to design a website "like that" for them. I then explain that there is a process that I can guide them through that may eventually lead them to such a website - but it isn't going to appear out of a single "design" process ...But people have a short memory - especially when they realize that most of the work involved is more on their shoulders (content) then mine.
How to Create Data Entry Forms for WordPress with Contact Form 7
In two recent projects I've encountered a need to enable website visitors to create new information on the website. The challenge was how to capture and process the information submitted by the form. Fortunately the Contact Form 7 plugin has an action hook which makes this fairly easy to do.
HTML for Writers – Part1: HTML Tags
Over the past year I've come across numerous questions on authoring HTML content where the best answer required some explanation of HTML. This prompted me to pick up this thread where I'll try to cover some really simple and basic HTML issues for non-developers and then build on that and answer some of the questions I've been asked ... HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is essentially an agreement about how information is structured and edited online. Though you don't see it, it exists on this webpage and most probably on every other webpage you've ever visited. It contains underying information (markup) about the contents of a page.
Blogging can be like a New & Uncomfortable Posture
Often times when people approach a new posture in Yoga they experience difficulty - they may feel rigid, weak or unstable - making it difficult to sustain the posture. But over time, with consistent and correct practice - that may change and lead to an Aha! experience. That's when all of a sudden the posture becomes easier - something about it seems to fall into place - as if there is a new-found flexibility, strength or balance that make it seems much easier then before. Blogging can be very much like a new posture ...
