Setting a Blog Posting Schedule
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Tips, Writing There are a few gifted bloggers who somehow manage to finish their posting requirements on time – how many they might be – even if they are slackers and crammers. But for the majority of us bloggers and freelance copywriters, posting regularly proves to be a hurdle. Whether you’re blogging for other people or for yourself, implementing and diligently following a blog posting schedule will help a lot in completing articles on time, while getting enough rest for ourselves. Blogging Schedule Ideas List all the blogs you need to write for, and how many posts you need to write per week/month. For ...Comments (26)
Don’t be a Tagboard Whore
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Blogging Tools, Linking, Promotion, Tips Tagboards are very useful for a beginning blogger for two chief reasons: They provide the blogger’s readers a hassle-free venue to give feedback or compliments; and They allow the blogger to easily build relationships (e.g. link exchange) with other bloggers by commenting on their tagboards. While there is nothing wrong with the latter – going around the tagboards of people and saying hello – this tactic is often abused (consciously or unconsciously) by many bloggers. There are bloggers whose obvious purpose is just to advertise their own sites, leaving messages such as “Dropped byâ€, “Visit my blogâ€, or worse, just smilies. For regular visitors ...Comments (8)
Blog Content from Article Sites
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Tips, Writing In our previous article, I mentioned article sites (also called article directories, or rarely, article libraries) as “tried and tested sources of free, free, free (can’t emphasize that enough) website contentâ€. So, what is an article directory? Basically, an article directory plays host and categorizes thousands of ~500-700 word articles written by the ‘experts’ of various fields – from Internet marketing to pet dog care, from yoga to trucks, and everything in between. Most of all, they’re free to be republished (with the original author’s byline, of course). I wrote ‘experts’, because it’s up to the reader to decide if the ...Comments Off
Where to Get “Supporting Blog Content”
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Images, Tips As bloggers, it's our responsibility to come up with original and informative articles. However, our pen (or keyboard, that is) do fail us from time to time, and we need inspiration for our blog posts. A good answer to this problem would be the earlier Blog Tutorial on where to get more blog topic ideas. So, you’ve pinned down the core concept of your blog post, which built upon your very own sentences, opinions, and experiences. Now, you just need that piece of quotation, that descriptive photo, that matching video – blog content that supports your core idea and words. ...Comments (4)
Changing Your WordPress Permalinks
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Linking, Terminology, TipsWhen I’m opening a Wordpress blog (I’ve done so a dozen or more times), one of the first things I do is to change the permalink structure. “Permalink†(a portmanteau of “permanent†and “linkâ€) means the URL or web address of your blog posts, pages, categories, archives, and so on.
When you install a Wordpress blog, it uses URLs that sport question marks and numbers. This isn’t the optimal permalink structure; here’s why:
1) Aesthetics. http://blog-tutorials.com/this-is-a-cool-post looks infinitely better than http://blog-tutorials.com/?p=123, doesn’t it?
2) Usability. Remember, whenever a blog reader hovers his/her mouse ...

Importing From Blogsome to WordPress
Posted by Phillip as Blog Tutorial, Tips A feature that I’ve always liked about the Wordpress blogging system is the ease of importing your old posts. By importing, I mean the transfer of blog posts from your old blog (e.g. Blogspot, MT, TypePad) into a new Wordpress blog. In the Wordpress system, you can import these posts with just a few clicks. However, there’s a bit of problem when you’re importing from Blogsome (which also runs on Wordpress, albeit the Wordpress MU version). As you can see in the image below, Blogsome isn’t included in the list of import-able blogs....
