Why Content Is Still King

Almost every web­mas­ter runs his/her web­site with one task in mind; to gain the more traf­fic. It’s not a sur­prise either because traf­fic means a lot to many; includ­ing the single-most con­trib­u­tory fac­tor in the amount you earn through your site.

With this in mind, many web­mas­ters strive or even ded­i­cate whole blogs to pro­duce new ways and tech­niques to gen­er­ate traffic.

Social Media Opti­miza­tion (or SMO) has been an area that I have been look­ing to explore for quite some time now.

I can’t help but feel that many of our read­ers found WLW either inad­e­quate, not suited or per­haps even com­pletely use­less. For­tu­nately, the com­ments writ­ten for my first post on Win­dows Live Writer sug­gested that either it’s not worth­while (because WP’s Edi­tor is pretty solid) or it wasn’t Mac-supported. So, I’ve spent some time researching […]

by Janith

Fol­low­ing up my rec­om­men­da­tion post on Win­dows Live Writer, I promised to deliver with some of the best exten­sions (or plu­g­ins) that are avail­able for WLW. Hence, I’ve spent the last week or so, research­ing the depths of the WLW Plu­gin archives (7 pages); in search of the most use­ful add-ons and I found cou­ple of absolute […]

I recently upgraded my MSN Mes­sen­ger to the new Win­dows Live Mes­sen­ger (I waited a while for them to release a more sta­ble ver­sion, because know­ing Microsoft they prob­a­bly for­got half the code they were meant to include.)

12 Useful Firefox Add-ons For Every Serious Blogger

Fire­fox is one of the most rec­og­nized com­peti­tors to Microsoft’s hor­ri­ble Inter­net Explorer (IE8) because of it’s vast func­tion­al­ity and quite impres­sive flex­i­bil­ity.
