g8662:May i write this explicitly. SEO is as useless on a poorly coded blog/website! How do you want search engines to make common sense of a page if the language they understanding was misused? Advice people to get a good theme and provide your solutions, else the beauty of your efforts may not be seen as it ought to be |

Pouring water on Speakdatruth and Vocalwalls . Signature doesn't really mean you dropping your link. It's a Unique Identifier that refers to you and only you. If the latest google algorithm sees url links on every comment as spamming, then don't "href" it Either way, you pass your thought one may not be as effective as the other though ![]() |

Every blogger needs traffic! As sound and technically correct the tips below are, they won't give you the traffic you need overnight In fact, it is just only one tip that ensures a better platform for others. Well, with consistency, we will surely get there. Before i list the tips, here are 3 major ways to generate traffic to a blog.1. Word of mouth. Yes, it is that simple! O'boy, i don get blog oo, check am for your phone na. 2. Drop a signature. When your mouth is not available to talk, let your hand do that for you. It is not a crime to write your blog url address beneath each of your posts on forums, is it Or use a moniker that easily tell the world about your your brand. For example, toheebDOTcom is my moniker, and i am very sure after the first six letters of my moniker you know it is a url address.3. Let what you do, or write about, brings the traffic for you. You've probably heard of the statement- "Content is King". And yes, that's right! But who told you the King is the most powerful piece Ask the Chess Master, and that white bearded man will tell you it is the QUEEN! Markup is the Queen when it comes to Web Design, Search Engine Optimization and Traffic!So what is the first and only advice i will give? 1. Choose a better theme! or simply code your blog the right way. Chikena Why It is the language of the web for crying out loud dude! It is something for you to know the language called English; it is another thing for you to make meaningful statements that human ears can understand easily. When it comes to the web, html is the language and semantics is what makes common sense out of html to web agents and Assistive Technologies. How do you do that ![]() - Don't use a theme, or code a theme, that doesn't have a Document Type . You know that little text at the top of every webpage that says <!DOCTYPE html> or something of such That's what search agents uses to interpret your page. It tells them, hey bot! this is an html5 webpage so don't treat the header tag like an ordinary non-semantic div. The Bot will say again -"It is not a MathML page, So i repeat myself, Don't treat it as such!"- Use the h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, and h6 tags correctly. These tags are not meant to make your text bold and big only, they define your document structure. Use h1 for the main topic, use h2 for sub topic, use h3 for Sub sub topic; Just like how we have section 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 and stuffs like that. - Don't use css background-image instead of html img tag. They produce the same visual result but different meanings just like html b and strong tag. Above, is a tip of the iceberg. When you get the above right! then these [url="https://www.nairaland.com/3100842/open-letter-bloggers-struggling-get"]tips here[/url] will make more sense.

Lemme whisper something to you, battery almost down for just the above posts. God knows when there will be light. P E T R O L!!! |
I thought i could be able to post something yesterday, but i was only sleeping and waking, and the circle continues till i get to Lagos. K k k k k k k, Lemme talk about WordPress Pagination till this battery went off! Lag light don worse ![]() WordPress Pagination As a WordPress Developer, you will definitely be creating template files. One of which is definitely for sure is index.php; there is also the single.php and as much others to page-archive.php. One thing is common to all of them, you need a means of creating pagination as your blog posts goes beyond the default 10 posts. How do you do that? What WordPress function do you need to use? When do you need to use such functions? [size=13pt]What WordPress function do you need to use?[/size] Option 1 If all you need to do is to create a link to the next page, then use this function 1. next_posts_link('Text to Display') :- Which links to a page with older posts. 2. previous_posts_link('Text to Display') :- Which links to a page with newer posts. Now, there is something i don't about the above functions. When you have less than 10 posts on any page you've implemented it, the links won't show up as usual which is frankly the normal; But heyyyy!!! the markup you used will be showing. if for example, you embed those functions in a p tag, your p tag will definitely display with no values (i.e empty) but it takes up some space in your canvas;behaving as if you've styled the p tag with visibility: hidden; Extra white-space could disfigure your Interface, you know And that brings me to the next super duper function which solves the above problem. And yes, this function might be all you need if you don't want the fancy tangy stuffs. Option 2 1. get_next_posts_link('Older Posts') :- 2. get_previous_posts_link('Newer posts') The additional power these two functions gives you is that they allow you to check if there are multiple pages before outputting the links. Hence, the problem of extra white-space is solved. But, Mr Man, i want some fancy pagination styles not just two links that takes me to two different pages. Well the functions i have described so far sucks at that. Yes including that super duper function. So, i bring you to the super duper fancer function Option 3 1. wp_link_pages($arguments) The Pagination function that displays page numbers giving your users the ability to link to page 3 without going through page 2. The fancer part of this function is that you can style it anyway you feel like. Yes! even like pages of a book Well that's possible, anything is possible, my personal blog looks like a house with those terms of a jagon like Fasia board, ridge and even windows. Na small gan remain i 4 get gate d@ u will need to unlock before you enter ![]() So guys, that's its. Are there any other ways you can create pagination in WordPress apart from the above? well lemme av you too to contribute, no be only me sabi am, i learn am too ni... [size=14pt]How do you use them?[/size] I haven't given any examples and that's because writing codes here on Nairaland will be a pain in the ass. I will talk extensively on this in my blog at a later date. To see how you can implement Option 1 and 2, then you can check this [url=toheeb.com/display-pagination-in-wordpress-only-if-there-is/]snippet[/url] i wrote some days ago. For the main time you can G Lemme tag someone, she's a girl ... Tag: Mhizsonia |
