Alexa Ranking:It Adds to Your Blog Value

April 27th, 2010

Alexa rank was developed by Amazon.com. It measures the traffic to a site for the last three months and one month simultaneously.

The assigning of a particular Alexa rank to a website or a blog  is based on the number of surfers(visitors) to your website. The surfers to the website must have the Alexa toolbar installed on their browsers otherwise they will not be counted. The Alexa rank counts the number of visitors and page views for all the websites on a daily basis.

This specific visitor counting also limit the actual measurement of popularity of a particular website or blog. Visitors not having installed Alexa toolbar will not add to the ranking and therefore the overall ranking results will not reflect a true picture. » Read more: Alexa Ranking:It Adds to Your Blog Value

How to Make Your Password Secure From Hacking

April 10th, 2010

Creating and remembering online passwords can be a nuisance. In a recent Consumer Reports survey, Americans rated passwords and PINs a 6.1 on the annoyance scale, with 10.0 being most annoying. (For some reason, women found them more annoying than men by a large margin.) Here at our Yonkers, NY headquarters, the IT department reports that eighty percent of their work involves resetting forgotten or expired passwords.

That’s no excuse, however, for creating a feeble one. Passwords are security tools after all, used to protect everything from the social data on your Facebook page to the money in your bank account. If you’re one of the many people who list “123456”, “password”, or any other cipher so simple it could probably be hacked by a chimpanzee, consider this your intervention. » Read more: How to Make Your Password Secure From Hacking

Revisiting Blogging Strategy Helps in Improving Quality

March 27th, 2010

Revisiting and examining pre-staged blogging strategy over past few days kept me a little more occupied. Simultaneously, I have been investing several hours in searching various write-ups on numerous websites and blogs. ”Blogging” is a well taken ‘niche’ and plethora of information is available online. For any keyword or a keyword phrase I found thousands of competing pages on all of the popular search engines. I generally prefer Google for my searches but ‘Bing’ is also coming up very fast and especially when it is corroborated with the ‘Yahoo Search’.

My search and looking for new ideas got me a little more puzzled. I initially thought and planned for writing blogging lessons and tutorials in a very different style so that newbies would be deriving more benefits. I have had my own experiences of learning by doing. This little break with searches have enabled me with even more interesting ideas and now I am planning to introduce them one by one .It may take a week or two to device a whole new blogging strategy for this site but in the end I am sure it will make everything more productive and advantageous for all my readers. » Read more: Revisiting Blogging Strategy Helps in Improving Quality

Proficient Blogging Strategies

March 20th, 2010

A blog is a true reflection of its creator. It reflects the creator’s thoughts, vision, and communications, exposed to the entire world. Blog tells the whole story in itself. It really does not matter whether the blog is a ‘well organized blog’ or it is just a jumble of images and text imposed as mementos. It may be a well-designed, well conceptualized and well managed blog on one hand and on the other hand it may also be just a collection of links, advertisements, banners, and even some irrelevant text posts. 

Proficient blogging strategies help in making a blog successful and ensure its readers and visitors coming back regularly. There are umpteen of such strategies and have been proved extremely useful over a period. I am outlining some of these popular blogging strategies.

Keep the Blog Concurrent

A blog must be kept up-to-date and concurrent. All links should be properly placed and comfortably opening for the visitors otherwise the visitor will just move on. A neglected blog can never be a profitable or popular concept. Some of the best blogs are what Buzz Bruggeman describes as ‘intelligence agents’. These blogs have posts that would be of interest to their target audience. » Read more: Proficient Blogging Strategies
