How to build a Local Website Go Local is the name of the game in 2011/12 and the success of bringing the global web developments back home is a trend of the time. First it was about tagging people, now we tag locations, be it on social networks such as Facebook or on Photo sites, such as Picasa or Flickr. Based on the fact that surfers search for and prefer local business to cross border transactions, social networks namely have built in the local tags and stimulate users to hook media and events to geographically tagged locations. How to dominate the local market? In order to dominate the local market, you need to assess the use of the internet your neighbors make; chances are that they mostly hang out on social media, search Google and use email.

Image Borders, Padding, Captions on XO Theme Thumbnails on WordPress There are two kinds of thumbnails produced on your XO site: the native WordPress thumbnails and the thumbnails generated by XO for the purpose of display throughout the theme where the WordPress thumbnails don’t fit. WordPress Thumbnails Thumbnail sizes are set in your dashboard under Settings > Media. When we change the thumbs’ sizes, the change will apply only to new content. These thumbnails are used by default in the XO Basic Home Page Layout. In order to modify thumbnails created previously to a change in WordPress settings, we use the “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin; install from your dashboard and then just run it: this will create thumbnails corresponding to the new WP Media settings for all images in the library and galleries. The Regenerate Thumbnails plugin will have no impact on syndicated posts unless you also pull in the images to your library when syndicating. XO Theme Thumbnails When we upload an image from our dashboard in XO, XO creates 12 thumbnails adapted to the needs of the site and stores them in the default uploads folder for faster loading. If we change the layout settings in XO advanced home [...]

XO Theme for WordPress Styling After each post, we display Tag, Category and RSS references. They are not part of the actual post; they are of a rather technical nature and may help visitors to find contextual content on the site. The SEO impact of publishing such Meta Information is discussable. Styling the Author Name We want to display the author’s name underneath the main title in small but remarkable fonts: .post .meta, .hentry .meta,.post .meta a, .hentry .meta a { color:#111111;letter-spacing:5px; } Note: we just use letter-spacing to gain visibility. Bottom Tags Usually these meta tags are printed in small print, often difficult to read. For the purpose of this exercise we have switched to a serif font (Times) and increased letter spacing for better readability: .storycontent .postmetadata, .storycontent .tags { font-family: Times, "Times New Roman",serif; font-variant:small-caps; font-size:16px; line-height:1.1em;color:#101010; letter-spacing:2.5px; } .storycontent .postmetadata a, .storycontent .tags a{ color:#000000; } Nothing really exciting here: we are using small-caps (alternatively upper-cases) and letter-spacing of 2.5px.Note that letter-spacing can take decimal values. The fun is in experimenting with font, colors and styles! Related posts: WordPress Date Styling Custom Typography on Semiomantics XO Theme for WordPress

Surfing the web we notice that hype sites have a different look than professional well founded content sites. Online Casinos look differently than wellness sites and Government sites look different from personal blogs.

Original Article at WordPress on Facebook.WordPress for Facebook Seminar Welcome to the WordPress for Facebook Seminar! This seminar is about Social Media Marketing and Communication involving WordPress, namely the Semiomantics XO Framework and Facebook. During the next two days we will elaborate and implement strategies to automate publication and communication across platforms with a special focus on the mobile web. WordPress on Facebook Why would you want to combine WordPress with Facebook? The main reason is to remain in control of your content, its presentation and the way it streams to and from Facebook. Also, a self-hosted WordPress provides you with better content management features and automation tools than Facebook. If you are a Facebook freak, you can even spend the rest of your life within Facebook and publish at the same time through WordPress Semiomantics XO right from within Facebook. Our pre-seminar sessions demonstrated how to embed your XO on a Facebook Canvas page, from where you have complete access to your WP installation, dashboard and editing and publishing tools. If you don’t want to spend any time in Facebook, then you just need to implement Social Media Marketing and Publishing Strategies as lined out in the YORGOO Publishing Model and your Facebook antenna [...]

Traffic Where there are no visitors, there is no money. Traffic will depend on how well you communicate the existence of your content or how well you promote your blog.

Over the years we have come across many promising formulas to reach Google Top 10 Positions. Hype Promotion guaranteeing Google Top 10 position on any keyword is sent to your spam box daily and promising, well designed sales pages are even promoted by Google Ads which is in complete contradiction to the products’ claimed merits. The simple Google Top 10 Formula Seriously, nobody can guarantee Google Top 10 positions on any keyword. However there are some clear ways of proceeding to put the best chances on your side of the table. Consider also that Google’s algorithm evolves and the filtering is subject to change. By adopting the following formula you will most likely be successful, very successful. 1. Get a domain name representing your keyword. For example, keyword.com Don’t tell me the .com of your keyword has gone; you can always build your keyword into a key-phrase which will work fine. Remember, the closer you are to what people actually type into the search form, the higher your chance of being found. Example: how-to-change-a-light-bulb.com Watch out: don’t use Brand [...]
