WordPress 2.8.3 is available! Please update now. Will You?

Category: Bloggingadmin @ 11:53 am

I think it has barely been one week or two weeks since I have upgraded to Wordpress 2.8.2. Now my dashboard is saying “WordPress 2.8.3 is available! Please update now”. What? How do you keep up with changes when you’ve hardly even understood what these changes are? How do plugin service providers or theme designers keep up with these changes?

If you have downloaded or used wordpress themes and plugins, you are aware that they do come free of charge and take no time to plug and play. Look here!

Looking for the awesome WordPress themes? Here’s the place to find them! Welcome to the Free WordPress Themes directory. 918 themes, 6,686,449 downloads, and counting

Over 6.5 million downloads and 918 themes, that is approximately 7,284 downloads per theme! It still doesn’t explain the frequency of downloads. Yet, I am not sure if wordpress is trying to keep up with the designers or the users.

Whatever the case maybe, I am not going to upgrade just yet as I am still cruising through the brand new suite of Wordpress 2.8.2. For others who are into keeping up with the newest and latest, WordPress 2.8.3 is available! Please update now. Well will you?

Claiming Your Website On Technorati

Category: Bloggingadmin @ 4:11 am

This is what you have to do when you have a new blog. You need to start your claim to your website.

I am in the process of submitting this blog or website to Technorati, and to do that I have to make claim by placing a code they have given me. Remember this is totally free, so you do not have to worry about being charged for anything. Technorati was one stage in the history of the blogosphere and internet, that will gather all kinds of urls and website addresses, and monitor their performance and rank them in terms of popularity or visibility. It is an intricate process but it gives you authority to say to other bloggers that you know how to make yourself visible in the blogosphere.

So I have copied the following code, bjv7msqeux, and will now publish it in the post of this blog. Technorati will then be able to find the claim in my blog feed (RSS or Atom). It would take about 1 hour for the search engine to crawl and discover this website. Once done, I will notified of a successful claim and I’ll see Edit, Ping and Widget buttons next to my blog listings. I will thenĀ  write a description for my blog, specifying the default language, and entering blog tags.

If you are blogging and have not submitted your website to Technorati, you can do so by following this link. Sign up for free.
