If you are a regular reader of Extreme Trix, then you may remember that couple of days back our site was deleted while upgrading and it took me almost two days to again make it up. My site was deleted because of my carelessness only. Satish bro told me on first day only to always keep a backup of site so that you can re-store it if anything happens to site by mistake, but didn’t take that seriously and forgot to keep a backup. When I was upgrading my site to WordPress 2.8.6 from WordPress 2.8.1 accidentally my blog directory got deleted (where Extreme Trix is installed) and everything was gone. That time I felt really bad, but thanks to Google Cache which saved my work and time. Somehow I was able to restore my site because of Google Cache (Thank you again Google! ). I don’t want any of my reader to face some problem so today I thought to write about a plug-in for WordPress called – WP-DB-Backup which can be used to take a backup of Database.

Backup

WP-DB-Backup allows you easily to backup your core WordPress database tables. You may also backup other tables in the same database. The best thing about this plug-in is you don’t need to take backup of your site regularly, just schedule a daily backup from setting page of the plug-in and it will be automatically emailed you or will be saved on your server.

Installation of the plug-in is very simple, just like a normal plug-in upload it to wp-content folder of your WordPress and activate it from Manage Plugins page of your blog. You may need to make /wp-content writable (at least temporarily) for it to create a backup directory. For example: $ cd /wordpress/ $ chgrp www-data wp-content (where “www-data” is the group your FTP client uses) $ chmod g+w wp-content.

If you have yet not installed this plug-in on your blog I will suggest you that to install it immediately. If you are already using this plug-in on your blog to take a backup, then if you don’t mind please share few words about it via comment.

Spam is the worst thing that every blogger is worried about. Although there are many spam control plug-ins which help us in controlling spam none of them is 100% reliable here are the best available anti spam plug-ins which I have used and reviewed.

Akismet – This plug-in is developed by Auttomattic Company and it comes inbuilt with WordPress installation. It checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not. You need a WordPress.com API key to use it. You can review the spam it catches under “Comments.” To show off your Akismet stats just put <?php akismet_counter(); ?> in your template.

WP-Ban – Most of the Spammers are bots which will comment from a particular IP and WP-Ban is very useful plug-in to avoid comments from particular IP’s and can be used to ban comments based on IP addresses.

WP-Spam Free – Once installed this plug-in will automatically delete comments and thing which I didn’t like in this plug-in is we can’t see the deleted comments.

reCaptcha – I personally hate captcha and at the same time I know that even my readers will hate that, but I hate Spam even more. reCAPTCHA is one of the best captcha plug-in. No doubt this is a great captcha plug-in, but I recommend this plug-in only for those blogs which will get lots of spam comments, as users will lose interest in commenting at your blog if you use captcha at your blog. So use this at your own risk.

Let us know if you know any other anti-spam plug-in that performs better.

Best spam control plugins for WordPress blogs. is a post from: Extreme Trix

The most common problem faced by new bloggers is that they don’t get any topic to write about. As they don’t get any topic to write about they start writing spam or review posts, which is not good for SEO. There is no use of writing spam or reviews as no one will like to read your post, but if your content is nice or interesting, then everyone will like to read it which will help you increase your traffic.

Pro-blogger

I know many newbies don’t get hours and hours of time to spend on internet so they also don’t get updated about their niche. For a blogger it’s always advised to cover latest updates or news about the niche he is blogging because covering a latest and original update would help him to get organic traffic.

For e.g, – If you are blogging on “Technology” niche, then covering an update about Apple Macbook’s new mouse will give more traffic than covering an update about Microsoft Windows seven. Covering an update about Apple’s new mouse will bring more traffic because it is new and still many people are unaware of it, but covering a review of Windows seven will not bring more traffic to your site because it is an old news and many people have already covered the same.

What to do if you don’t get time spend hours on internet, but want to cover latest and original updates on your blog/site?

I have a solution for all those new bloggers who don’t get time to spend hours on internet, but want to cover latest updates about their niche (which would help them to increase their traffic). You can use Google Alerts and watch new channels to stay updated about your niche.

• News Channels – New channels like IBN 7 and Ajj Tak always show cool news in all niches like technology, shopping, marketing, money making and a lot more. So I will advise you to watch news channels in your free time like while having your lunch.
• Google Alerts – is a very useful way to keep in touch of what’s going around the world. You don’t have to waste your time going to search engines and find something. Just add a Google alert for your favorite topic and Google will automatically email you about the latest information on that topic.

Once you develop a strong foundation in the niche of your own choice, take up a dedicated time of the day (away from any distraction) and just write in. I am damn sure covering latest updates in niche of your own choice would help you to get good traffic in minimum time.

Task – Try Google Alerts for a week and watch IBN 7, cover latest updates from your niche, after a week or two check your traffic and please do let us know via comment.

If you remember couple of days back I posted same post in Learn WordPress in three days series, I am re-posting this post because that post was a bit confusing and readers were not able to understand it.

To install WordPress MU on your Windows computer you need to create local server, Xampp For Windows can be used to create it.  Download it and  after downloading  run the installer. When it comes to the installation options page, select Install Apache and MySQL as a service. When your installation gets finished open your web browser and type http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ in the address bar.

Now you need to create a database for WordPress MU installation. To create a database click on “Create New Database” field, enter a name for your database and press the create button.

After creating database you need to configure you Windows for WordPress MU. Go to C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc and open the file “Hosts” with notepad and add – 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain in the end.

Now your Windows is ready for WordPress MU installation. Just download the latest version of WordPress MU and extract the folder as it is in Xampp/htdocs directory. After extracting open this link in your web browser – http://localhost.localdomain/wordpress-mu. There you should see a WordPress MU installation page (select sub directories not sub domains. This will save you plenty of trouble later on.) Now enter the database info you created –

1. Database name – enter the name of the database you have created.
2. Database user – type “root” in that field.
3. Password – just leave it blank, please don’t enter anything in that field.
4. Databse Host – localhost

The main part where a blogger lacks is his English Grammar. They used to a lot of grammatical mistakes which seem not good for their blogs. Even my own Grammar is not too good and sometimes I also used to make lots of Grammatical mistakes in my articles which seem not good for SEO. I have made a list of three free online tools which will surely help bloggers to improve their English, and they are -

• After the Deadline – It is free for our personal use plug-in that check writing errors and offer smart suggestions for our blogs. It uses artificial intelligence and natural language processing technology to find our writing errors and offer smart suggestions.
• Polish My Writing – Free online tool from makers of After the Deadline WordPress based plug-in. This tool too uses artificial intelligence and natural language processing technology to find our writing errors and offer smart suggestions.
• Spell Check Plus – This one is my favorite online tool to check spelling mistakes and grammatical errors of English as a Second Language.

These are three tools which I use to check my spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. Do you use any other tool for spell check and grammar checking? If yes, then do let us know.

Well, I think we have already discussed lots of tips and tutorial on Blogging, but I never posted any tip to choose web-hosting. Today I was free so I decided to write an article on tips to choose web-hosting. I decided to write about web-hosting tips because never talked about web-hosting on Extreme Trix and web-hosting plays major role in SEO, which is most important thing for our blogs/sites.

Servers

Tips to choose web-hosting

• Read reviews – Remember the first thing to do before selecting a web hosting account is to read reviews from trusted publishers, this will help you to get information of various web hosting services so you can easily choose the right Web-Hosting service provider.
• Get know what you need – The second tip is to consider yourself what you need.. I mean which type of hosting suits you. The hosting requirement depend on the kind of application you want to run on your hosting account.
• Check their service quality – After following above two tips all you have to do it check the quality of hosting server, for example if you read some reviews about Host Gator, considered yourself what you need to run your server and found it suitable for your site or blog, then the last thing you have to do it ask their users about their advantages and drawback. In order to make sure about the quality of the web host provider, also take some time to monitor and test the server.

If you are looking for best hosting at cheapest price, then Host Gator will be the best choice to give try once. Make sure to find right dedicated hosting to ensure success in your online business.

We had already covered too many articles under Blogging category about SEO,  famous blogging software WordPress and also covered an article about Google’s Blogger in which I told you all about its history and tutorial to set-up custom domain name. So I hope till now you all will be familiar with WordPress Plug-ins. Don’t worry if you are new to WordPress and yet not familiar with plug-ins, I am once again going to explain it here.

Plug-ins are PHP based tools which extend and expand the functions of  WordPress. You can add plugins by just uploading it to your wp-content > plugins folder that is in your WordPress directory. More info.

Today in this article I am going  to review Top 10 WordPress Plug-ins which I had myself used on Extreme Trix to make WordPress powered blogs more user friendly.

So here we go -

1. Advertising Manager – The best advertisement managing plug-in for WordPress I have ever used! Its having all the features that a publisher looks for. It manages our Google Adsense and other ad network accounts, and allows us to easily place the ads either within our WordPress blog posts, or within our WordPress theme/template.
2. After the Deadline – It is free for our personal use plug-in that check writing errors and offer smart suggestions for our blogs. It uses artificial intelligence and natural language processing technology to find our writing errors and offer smart suggestions.
3. AJAX Random Posts – This plugins display a highly customizable list of random posts. There are some plugins that server a similar purpose already, if they’re used along with cache plug-ins, the list is cached also, and remains the same over thousands of views, thus not so “random”. AJAX Random Posts, as its name says, uses AJAX technology to retrieve the posts and overcome the problem: now each page refresh comes with one different list!
4. Akismet – It checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not. You need a WordPress.com API keyto use it. You can review the spam it catches under “Comments.” To show off your Akismet stats just put <?php akismet_counter(); ?> in your template.
5. All in One SEO Pack – It’s a nice plug-in with inbuilt option for entire required field for SEO optimization of any post or page.
6. Socialize – The plugin was designed to make it very easy to manage. Instead of adding new meta keys, like other plugins require, there is an additional panel in your post’s admin page that allows you to select which bookmarks you want to display. This is to encourage people to choose more relevant bookmarks for their posts.
7. Wp-Thumbie – This plugin will show related posts based in context and you can configure lots of settings from plugin option page. You can make changes in CSS and design from the plugin editor page. Though even if you don’t this plugin will look good to start.
8. GoCodes – It is simple WordPress plugin which can be used to hide your affiliate link and make them look like a simple link.
9. About the Author Box – Displays a sleek “about the author” box in the single posts page. This is very useful for team blog having too many writers.
10. Facebook Sharecount – The Facebook Share count plugin shows the number of shares on Facebook your posts get and allows users to share it themselves. This plugin is based on the (excellent) Backtype Tweetcount plugin.

Top 10 WordPress Plug-ins to make your site more user friendly! is a post from: Extreme Trix

There are some bloggers who are blogging on WordPress, but  they don’t even know what is SEO. So today I decided to write an article on SEO and WordPress optimization for better SEO. Before writing any tip, let me explain you first what is it.

Search engine optimization is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via natural search results. Typically, the earlier  a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.

How can we optimize our WordPress for it?

WordPress software is said to be optimized for SEO by default, but though there are some better optimizations which can be use to boost search engine results, in this article I am going to explain you all common SEO optimization tips.

• Title of post – The post title of your article should be always user- friendly and catchy so that who so ever reads the title get attracted towards it.
• Meta Title – There is a little difference between the title and the meta title. Title is the heading of your article or post while meta title is the title you want search engine to show in search results.
• Description – Your post/article summary or discription should be catchy because most of readers first read the summary or description of the article, then if they find the summary interesting, then only they read full article.
• Keywords – Keywords should be properly used depending upon your article’s summary as they will be targeting the search results.
• Content – Some newbies thing that posting often will them to increase their site traffic, they are wrong!. There is no use of writing spam or review posts as no one will like to read your post, but if your content is nice or interesting, then everyone will like to read it which will help you increase your traffic so always try to write interesting articles.

Plug-ins for SEO Optimization

Hope till now you guys may be familiar with WordPress plug-ins as I told you about them in  “How to install WordPress plug-ins” post of “Learn WordPress in three days” series, don’t worry if you are yet not familiar with it, I am again going to explain you.

Plugins are PHP based  tools which extend and expand the functionality of WordPress. You can add plugins by just uploading it to your wp-content > plugins folder that is in your WordPress directory. More info.

• All in one SEO pack - Its a nice plug-in with inbuilt option for entire required field for SEO optimization of any post or page.
• Socialize – The plugin was designed to make it very easy to manage. Instead of adding new meta keys, like other plugins require, there is an additional panel in your posts admin page that allows you to select which bookmarks you want to display. This is to encourage people to choose more relevant bookmarks for their posts.

SEO optimized themes -

There are some WordPress themes available on triple W which are already fully SEO optimized, you don’t need to do anything with those themes they will automatically do what is necessary.

• Swift theme - This theme is mainly aimed at blogs running on low server resources and for those who like clean and simple designs. It’s always good have themes like SWIFT at your disposal so that you can easily switch to it if you are expecting a spike in traffic from social media sites.
• Sahina Tech – Its 3-columns simple, clean theme with lightning fast speed., we can add an image on each post.. we can put anything anywhere on front page just like Digital Inspiration and best thing is that it use only 4 images so it’s blazing fast!
