Heading Summary – These tags not only help human readers read the content, they also help search engine spiders better understand the content on a page and what is most important.

The alt attribute allows web pages to assign specific text as the “alternative” content for images for those that cannot view the images themselves. This can be search engine crawlers or text-only web browsers.

Free Image Hosting

July 24, 2009 Tutorial Blog 1 Comment

Finding a place to park your web images is fairly easy to do these days. The problem is there are dozens of sites out there so how do you know which one to use? If you pick the wrong one, you will usually find out pretty quick. After you spend hours uploading all your images and then linking to them from your website, all of a sudden your image links break and your site is broken with no images.

Most free blog template sites let you download their template but fail to mention anything about the images that go along with it. Some people don’t even realize that images need to be hosted somewhere in order for the template to work properly. They install their newly downloaded template and it just works. Other templates don’t host the images and include the images in a folder which you need to find a place for them to live. People get confused and don’t know what to do.

Do You Need A New Blog Theme?

July 23, 2009 Tutorial Blog No comments

In case you don’t know, Nate Whitehill and his company UniqueBlogDesigns did the design for my blog, which you are looking at right now if you are not reading this through an RSS reader.

I consider Nate and his team the preeminent WordPress blog theme designers and pretty much all my recent design work has been done by them.

A custom blog theme is not essential for success as a blogger, but it certainly helps. Having your own theme, something you are proud of that uniquely identifies you and/or your brand, gives you a sense of ownership, which is actually a motivating factor – it makes you want to blog more often.

Blog Traffic Exchange and AdSense

May 10, 2009 Tutorial Blog No comments

After doing up nice websites with interesting contents, the webmasters’ dilemma is usually one of attracting visitors to their sites. Having more visitors is gratifying; it is a reward that website owners deserve for putting time and effort into their sites.

Traffic exchange networks were designed to promote visitor traffic to websites or blogs. The idea is simple – members of the network surf each other’s sites. Upon setting up an account with a traffic exchange program, you will be entitled to earn ‘credits’ by manually surfing other members’ sites. Depending on the program, you may have anything between 0.5 to 1.0 credit for every site you visit. There is a timer at the top or bottom frame of the page to compel you to remain at the site for a period of time. This can range between 10 to 30 seconds. You are then required to click one of the images to correspond with the given image in order to proceed to the next random site. This is to prevent autosurfing hacks that may cheat the system.

With the ‘credits’ you earn, you can assign them to your blogs. For every visitor you get to your blog, 1 credit will be deducted until all your ‘credits’ are spent. In a nutshell, the more blogs you visit, the more visitors you get to your blogs.

Anatomy of a Blog

April 12, 2009 Tutorial Blog 2 Comments

Unlike blogs, a blog engine is not a single website. However, the engine consists of different parts that are organized in a very structured way. Let us first discuss what the different types of blogs are.

Types of Blogs

In the real world, there are different types of blogs. I do not actually mean their purpose, but rather the category of their contents. In the following sections, you will see some of them and understand their necessity.

General Blogs

When people say “blog”, they usually mean the blogs that belong to this category. These blogs are generally text-based, but contain a lot of images and other media like audio and video. These blogs are easy to maintain, lightweight, and are very popular for their simplicity. WordPress and Drupal are general blog engines.

Photo Blogs

Photoblogs or Phlogs are special kind of blogs where a group of people or individuals share their photos collected from various sources. These blogs are generally dedicated towards a specific audience. Most photoblogs are free. The usual subjects of photoblogs are films, wars, herbs, natural beauty or even weird images, and so forth; it’s impossible to specify all of them. Professional photographers also share photos through their blogs.

How To Get Your Website Into Google

April 03, 2009 Tutorial Blog 1 Comment

If you have created the content for your website, it’s time to get it into Google. If you haven’t been able to get that far, go back to the ‘how to make money online when you’re a beginner’ post and follow the steps that I have outlined.

Getting Into Google

Google’s massive index of websites includes each site they think is relevant. Obviously, you aren’t going to get any traffic from Google until you can get into Google.

Getting in is actually pretty simple – you have to show Google that you’re relevant and that’s quite simple. The only thing you have to do to convince them is get another site that’s already in to link to you.

If you have a site that’s in Google, getting in is easy because you can link to yourself. If you don’t, you’re going to have to find someone else to link to you and here are the two easiest ways to do that:
