March 7th, 2009 by Sunil

If we think about a blog site, no other blog service will come to our mind. Yes, wordpress is soo popular and powerful in this section. Because it has good flexibility and plenty of options.

WordPress

If you would like to enrich your blog, you have to install some plugins. There are a lot of plugins are available. Even though I think the below listed plugins are very essential for a good blog site. I am just introducing some essential plugins for WordPress

All in one SEO pack will optimize your blog automatically. All in SEO pack has a lot of options. I am listing a few here.

Automatic title - Browser window title very important in the view of Search Engines. By default there is a chance of generating duplicate titles by wordpress. All in SEO pack will overcome this issue by generating titles for each page. Otherwise you can give yourself by a good title.

'Sunil’s blog' and 'Google Dance'

February 22nd, 2009 by Sunil

I started this blog 3 months back. I had been really happy because of the Google’s indexing. But things are changed now. I am feeling something wrong. I had been in 2nd position for the keyword ‘Sunil blog’. Last Thursday onwards this keyword showing in the 2nd page for the blog myhtmlworld.com.

I had no clue about this. I checked with my colleagues and my colleague Sadiq found one interesting article. I think ‘Google Dance’ may be the reason for pulling off the keyword ‘Sunil blog’? Huh! I couldn’t found any other reason.

What is ‘Google Dance’?

The term ‘Google Dance’ means the period when Google is rebuilding its rankings. This time results may be widely fluctuate for a 3 to 5 day period.

I am not that much techie to explain this term

Please visit this article to get more about Google Dance

http://www.metamend.com/google-dance.html

http://dance.efactory.de/

This may be the reason to pulling off my website for 2nd page for that keyword? What do you think? Let’s see.

I am writing this post only to introduce ‘Google Dance’; I wont care even if Google throw me out from the Google search results

Does the page rank really matter?

January 11th, 2009 by Sunil

There was a recent page rank update from Google on this December. Many of the SEO people may notice that. Some websites got a better page rank and some websites lost their existing page rank.

What are real factors that affect the page ranking? (Really I don’t know!)

According to the words of Google, “PageRank reflects our view of the importance of web pages by considering more than 500 million variables and 2 billion terms. Pages that we believe are important pages receive a higher PageRank and are more likely to appear at the top of the search results.”

And Google is saying that it depends on the links of the page and other links which are coming to the website. (Incoming links).

But the last update from Google was not on this policy? I hosted this blog around 1 and half months back only (28th of November). I don’t have much incoming links. But I got page rank 3. But some good sites which have a lot of incoming links lost their page rank. Any of them could find any reason for this? What do you think?

Now I am feeling like that Google page rank is not a big thing…You may miss the page rank at any time? Build your web page for your visitors not just for search engines!

Google SMS services – amazing service from Google

December 1st, 2008 by Sunil

Today I have seen Google’s new service called Google SMS. You can now search anything from your mobile phone through SMS (Short Message Service) with free of cost. (You have to pay to your service provider for sending SMS – don’t forget that).

You can get the ticket status of train, schedules of train, restaurant information and more… Just try it out. All you need is send an sms to 9-77-33-00000 (without “-“). Eg: Get the PNR status of Indian Railway. Then send sms to PNR <number> to 9773300000.

I think it is country depended. So you have to check the customized (country wise) domain name of Google. Eg: For India,http://labs.google.co.in/smschannels
