But we act allow a batch of control greater than page(*) download instant. This is impacted by the size of our posts (especially the picutres and videos), and by the widgets so as to we service.<br />
<br />
How much difference page-load rapidity makes to you and your visitors (how many pages they point of view, and how likely they are to come up to back) depends on your niche and how impulsive they are.<br />

The mail2Post trait, every so often branded as Post-to-profile, is a way of putting content on your blog exclusive of using the chock-full Blogger software representing script the pole.<br /><br />It's not quite as respectable as using Blogger itself - at hand are a a small number of skin tone missing - but it is respectable an adequate amount in many situations.<br /><br />How to usual up mail2Post<br /><br />Log in to Blogger with the Google report to facilitate you would like to own mail2Post constitutional rights to your blog: This report needs to already be usual up as an author representing the the blog.<br /><br />Go to<br /><br /> The Settings tab - if you are logged on with an author report, or<br /> The Settings > mobile phone & Email tab if you are using an administrator report <br /> (The tab is called Settings > Email & mobile phone in the old Blogger interface.)<br /><br />Beside Posting using email (or Email Posting Address in the old Blogger interface), at hand is a place wherever you can enter a quantity of "secretWords", to nominate up an email attend to to facilitate you can consume to pole to your blog.<br /><br />Enter a quantity of fit terminology: Nominate convinced it's not too unproblematic to conjecture (your surname would not be a respectable wealth!), so to facilitate spammers cannot comprehend into it:<br />

<br />
Choose either to print emailed updates as soon as they arrive, or to save email as drafts so to facilitate you, or a further administrator, can reconsideration them or redistribution.<br /><br />Note down the chock-full email attend to, ie NAME.Your-secret-words@blogger.Com (you will need this soon after - and unfortunately since of the way it's displayed, it is not unproblematic to copy-and-paste the value).<br /><br />Press Save (old interface) or Save Settings (new interface).<br /><br />Using the mail2Post attend to:<br /><br />Once mail2Post is usual up, everybody who sends an email message to the email attend to you plagiarized can pole to your blog, with come again? Still restrictions you usual.<br /><br />You might plunk message on your blog aphorism<br /><br /> "send aid to YOURNAME.YOURSECRETWORDS@blogger.Com"<br /><br />But be aware to facilitate this can generate a lot in life of spam. And in the worse argument, the spam can comprehend your blog deleted representing breach Blogger's stipulations and conditions.<br /><br />Alternatively, you might truly tell the attend to to selected fill with - or perhaps even truly consume it physically.<br /><br />How is a Post constructed from an email message:<br /><br />When a message is sent to your mail2Post attend to:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> The subject-line of your email message becomes the Post-title</li>
<li> The body of the email message becomes the body of the pole</li>
<li> I think: If you without human intervention print emailed posts, followed by the pole date-and-time is the split second next to which Blogger's servers acknowledged the incoming email message - articulated in Blogger's default stage zone (PST otherwise PDT, I think).</li>
<li> No labels are useful to the pole</li>
<li> The post-author is the profile appoint of the blog-author who usual up the mail2Post attend to.</li>
</ul>
<br />Pictures and Videos<br /><br />People own reported various results what time they include images and videos inside messages sent via mail2Post. Personally, I own tested:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> An attached picture - posted ok, the image is fair or all the text from the body of the email message</li>
<li> An attached capture organizer (4meg) - posted ok with the capture appearing to be exceeding the text from the email message</li>
<li> An in-line photo - worked flawlessly, the picture is placed in the pole in the same view (relative to the text) to facilitate it was in the real thing email.</li>

<br />
I suspect to facilitate the results depend on they type of picture, the email client you are using, and the message format settings. My taxing was with Mozilla Thunderbird, which has a detail way of thinking around "attachments", a little discrete from other email systems to facilitate I own used (eg Microsoft Outlook).<br /><br />Probably the single way to discover how photos are handled what time you consume your email to propel them is to usual up a test-blog and conduct test with discrete options.<br /><br />What your readers distinguish:<br /><br />People who read your blog in a web-browser distinguish mail2Post entries truly like several other posts. If your blog displays the poster's appoint, followed by mail2Post entries own the appoint of the blog-author who usual up the mail2Post attend to.<br /><br />To the same extent mentioned or, the positioning of pictures and videos may well not until the end of time be as respectable: Attached pictures, in detail, may well be revealed as the very interrupt of the pole.<br /><br />Apart from to facilitate, at hand is nothing to fair visitors to facilitate the pole was twisted using email - in either the pole or in the blog's RSS feed.<br />

Conclusions:<br />
This blog is very dependent on Google, and gets almost rejection "Binhoo" traffic (ie from other search engines) - I'd be vexed, apart from to facilitate it's reasonable to facilitate for the most part Blogger users will consume Google to search.<br /> Almost third traffic comes from questions I answer on Blogger-help-form: This is worth responsibility.<br /> BHAT is initial to comprehend relatives from a range of other sites: This is probably something to handiwork on.<br /><br />The for the most part admired posts were rejection stagger - you can distinguish them in the widget on the sidebar.<br /><br />The bounce-rate is quite high spot, though (between 55 and 70%) - and it's been increasing steadily. This is probably something to handiwork on, it may well be interrelated to the total of articles to facilitate need updating representing the Sept-2011 interface revolution.<br /><br />Screen end<br /><br />People keep aphorism to facilitate this matters, and to facilitate we need to design representing lesser screens. And personally I've been using a Netbook a lot in life recently, since it's truly so portable. But it doesn't look like Blogger-HAT visitors are working like to facilitate:<div>

Conclusion: <br /><br />Mobile phone may well be "hot" - but small screen aren't being used what time fill with would like in sequence around how to consume Blogger. Personally, I'm selection to facilitate for the most part of my 80% of visitors using spacious screens look after own small screen strategy - they truly consume them representing discrete things.<br /><br />Achievements:<br /><br />The large victory of the day was a re-write larger than all single pole: At some point in 2011, all pole in Blogger-HAT was reviewed: The format was standardised, and the contents reviewed. For many articles, this destined a complete re-write, or splitting solitary pole into 3 or 4 lesser topics. This process happening in much-lamented April, and to finish finished on 31 December with a out-and-out re-write of Combining a forwarding-address and mail2Post, so you know who posted come again?.<br /><br />This is furthermore the day what time I happening to take social media earnestly: Blogger-HAT's commotion at hand is still small (I'd sooner focus stage on researching modern content), but growing.<br /><br />Plans representing 2012:<br /><br />I'm truly around to launch Blogger-HAT-Lite wherever I can share quick but unresearched comments around announcements form other products to facilitate may well affect Blogger users.<br /><br />Updating existing articles to include "new blogger interface" info is a large priority. Anything tagged YY - needs Sept11 reconsideration still needs to be complete. Right promptly, that's 149 articles.<br /><br />I think to facilitate customizing mobile and dynamic templates will be a stormy subject matter in 2012 - although very niche-specific. I'd love to investigate this, but not convinced if I'll comprehend stage to handiwork on it. But I noticed recently to facilitate Southern Speakers has been responsibility a respectable total of posts around how to revise dynamic guide blogs using CSS, so maybe I won't disturb.<br /><br />Lastly, I've happening a further blog to facilitate involves cataloging tune and song books on a very individual subject matter. Blogger is a fantastic vile representing sharing this material, especially the "detailed song information" behind it. But I'm building the content representing a detailed file, and maybe I'll be looking representing a tool to facilitate lets visitors call structured file queries (not truly searches) and followed by shows effect sets inside posts. Any hints on options representing this are delightful.<br /><br />What look after you think?<br /><br />At the top of for the most part once a year reviews, the boss looks larger than his/her glasses and says "Overall, I'm place your performance as <whatever>" representing the year".<br /><br />I'm a morsel terse of bosses in this "job" - but would love to hear how Blogger-HAT can look after a better job in 2012. You know wherever to discovery the comments-box, truly under the page-links section, so please give permission me hear your judgment.<br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800834244470860717.post-21697464494063547722013-11-26T04:17:00.002-08:002013-11-26T04:17:38.209-08:00Google CSE API documentation upgradeGoogle's custom search engine API is promptly fully familiar (announced here).<br /><br />It won't mean something if you truly consume a regular Google Custom Search on your blog,<a name='more'></a> but representing persons who own implicit their own special engines - or who would like to, this can be very respectable news.<br /><br />They've furthermore made the Help Centre prettier (like for the most part of the Google tools are doing), and added more languages to it.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800834244470860717.post-33246587569313996582013-11-25T19:44:00.000-08:002013-11-25T19:44:08.011-08:00How to put a gadget above your blog's header<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

There are two foremost ways to facilitate content can be plunk into your blog: Explanation and posts.<br /><br />Blogger is designed, around the goal to facilitate preliminary discussions around modern topics are happening by you, and plunk into posts. <a name='more'></a> Readers work together with you by commenting on your posts - although, all right, at hand are ongoing problems with readers not being able to explanation, it seems largely since of their security settings.<br /><br />But at hand may well be a quantity of fill with who you would like to be able to look after more than truly comment. Increasingly fill with would like to look after more with their explanation - they would like to include relatives (eg to pictures to facilitate fair come again? They mean), or they would like to integrate explanation with their social networks (for illustration, as revealed in the ways to facilitate James from JS Blogstop has integrated Facebook and Twitter explanation with his blog-comments.<br /><br />And a quantity of groups of fill with would like to handiwork organized to nominate a blog to facilitate they all put pen to paper posts representing, and are prepared to nominate and chase their own rules/guidelines (which aren't enforced by Blogger) to nominate this winning.<br /><br />Team organisation in opposition to Blogger tools<br /><br />There are many ways to organise a team of bloggers.<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Some blogs are run by solitary person (the vendor or manager), who recruits fill with to put pen to paper representing them (either representing payment, or as volunteers).</li>
<li> Some feel right to a company, and are operated by an employee according to their job explanation. </li>
<li> Some blogs are owned by a commission, who delegate solitary person to look after all the handiwork on them. </li>
<li> Some own a team of writers who and designers, who all be part of the cause equally and who nominate collective decisions around how things are complete. </li>
</ul>
<br />And at hand are many more options in amid.<br /><br />Unfortunately Blogger cannot usual up permissions representing all the discrete ways to facilitate real-world teams handiwork - at hand are truly too many options. Instead, you need to design the way your team factory, using the options to facilitate Blogger does provide. So - come again? Are these?<br /><br />Have posts emailed to you<br /><br />Email icon crystalThis is the simplest way to give permission other fill with put pen to paper representing your blog: Authors put pen to paper their content in the tool of their wealth, and email it to you. You load it to Blogger, look after several formatting or cutting and thump the print button.<br /><br />Pros<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Authors don't need to gain knowledge of Blogger software</li>
<li> You own out-and-out control larger than what's available, and what time, and how it looks</li>
</ul>
<br />Cons<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Time: You need to plunk stage into converting apiece submission</li>
<li> Conversion problems: Some formats don't convert well (eg Microsoft Word can single every so often be successfully converted to blogger - and must not at all be copy-and-pasted)</li>
<li> Wasted stage - and lay bare of mistakes:</li>
<li> If an author has plunk a lot in life of effort into design (headings, bold, italics, tables, footnotes, etc) you may well need to recreate it all physically - and a quantity of skin tone, eg tables, may well not be well-supported by Blogger.</li>
</ul>
Managing attached annals:If a pole includes a lot in life of graphics or videos, you need to receive these annals too, and load them to Picasa (or an appropriate file-host representing non-image files), and link to them from the pole: Your author will not be able to usual up the relatives. Alternatively if your author has linked to pictures to facilitate are hosted somewhere, you lose control larger than whether these will last to handiwork in the upcoming. And at hand won't be a thumbnail picture representing the pole if no one of the pictures are stored in Picasa-we or Google + albums.<br /><br />To nominate receiving posts by email a reduced amount of dreadful:<br /><br />If you top up using this option since no one of them others are fit, you can ask your writers to propel you HTML as an alternative of a custom file format like Word.<br /><br />Or ask them to handiwork in Google Docs, which you can copy-and-paste from.<br /><br />Or propel PDF annals: Host these in a place to facilitate provides embed code (eg Scribd), and you keep their formatting by putting the embed code into your posts.<br /><br />Have posts emailed to your blog<br /><br />Blogger has the "mail2Post" trait, which lets you usual up your blog to receive posts to facilitate are emailed to a "secret" attend to to facilitate you own usual up.<br /><br />You need to select whether mail2Post submissions are without human intervention available or usual to plan, and the "secret words" part of the mail2Post email attend to.<br /><br />Then you need to tell the fill with who you would like to pole how to look after so, ie come again? Email attend to to propel their aid too, and how to market things like pictures or videos to facilitate they would like to include.<br /><br />Pros:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Saves you stage</li>
<li> Lets fill with pole even if you aren't offered to Publish</li>
<li> Writers can handiwork in a familar tool, and single need to be on-line while they're conveyance their content</li>
</ul>
<br />Cons:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Attached photos don't until the end of time handiwork, your writers don't control wherever in the pole they are plunk, and you don't control wherever the picture annals are saved</li>
<li> There is rejection way to without human intervention add Labels to posts (you need to add them manually later)</li>
<li> Content to facilitate you don't would like may well be plunk on your blog if a hacker guesses your secret-words-address</li>
<li> There are rejection guarantees around formatting (bold, italics, bullet-pointed lists) being revealed precisely: A lot in life depends on the writer's email client settings</li>
<li> You cannot tell who the post-author was from the Blogger control panel</li>
</ul>
If you usual incoming posts to plan, Blogger has rejection way of notifying you to facilitate at hand are modern posts waiting representing you r appreciation - you need to notice to facilitate they're at hand.<br /><br />Making it handiwork:<br /><br />The after everything else a small number of problems can be avoided if you consume email-forwarding and mail2Post organized. This furthermore lets you add rules / filters contained by Gmail, so reduces the lay bare of without human intervention publishing something inappropriate, and you can usual up notifications to physically around posts waiting your reconsideration.<br /><br />Blogger Author constitutional rights:<br /><br />Each blog can own solitary or more administrators (who can look after anything), and or more authors, who can single put pen to paper modern posts, and edit their own existing posts. Authors and administrators are considered to be members of a team blog, and apiece blog can invite up to 100 fill with to be members.<br /><br />Pros:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> It's practically unproblematic to nominate someone into an author</li>
<li> The writer can consume Blogger's tools representing formatting their pole, and representing tallying pictures and videos.</li>
<li> Labels can be useful or a pole is publihsed</li>
<li> Posts can be scheduled into the upcoming</li>
</ul>
It's unproblematic representing authors to format relatives nicely (eg "this article on Blogger-HAT" as an alternative of "www.Blogger-hints-and-tips.Blogspot.Com/XXX")<br /><br />Cons:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> You cannot force writers to until the end of time give permission you reconsideration posts or they're available: You can ask them to save posts as plan, but there's nothing to pledge to facilitate they will look after so</li>

<li> You cannot interrupt writers from cutting their earlier posts</li>

Authors can single edit their own earlier posts, and not persons of other wrtiers. (This can be a glitch soon after if a quantity of authors move on you own new-team members: Single administrators can edit the handiwork of now-departed authors.)<br /> You cannot control wherever your writers host pictures and videos: The post-editor lets them link to several location.

Giving someone administrator justification is the ultimate step in charter them put pen to paper representing your blog.<br /><br />Pros:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> This has the same advantages as giving someone author constitutional rights - and compromise administrator constitutional rights is truly a small second step as soon as someone is an author</li>
<li> And administrators can edit the handiwork of other authors too, which may well be an improvement or disadvantage depending on your circumstances.</li>
<li> Having a 2nd administrator can be a respectable safety precaution, in argument you be converted into sick or lost access to your report.</li>
</ul>
<br />Cons:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Someone with administrator constitutional rights has chock-full control larger than the guide and posts in your blog: They can look after everything you can look after.</li>
<li> They can furthermore remove other administrators - consequence they can remove your admin constitutional rights!</li>
</ul>
<br />Making it handiwork:<br /><br />You need very discharge rules around who is sensible representing come again? - and a very trusting affiliation with the other administrators.<br /><br />Mix-and-match<br /><br />Realistically, if your blog has a total of team members, maybe as well as guest-posters, followed by you will probably consume a mix-and-match loom to giving constitutional rights to other fill with.<br /><br />This way you will need to nominate choices around who can look after come again? - and why.<br /><br />For illustration:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> New / prospective guest-posters may well be invited to email posts to you</li>
<li> Established guest-posters may well be usual up with mail2Blog, or even as authors inside Blogger</li>
<li> Regular writers may well be usual up as authors</li>
<li> Core team members will probably all be administrators - and you will own a range of measures (including regular backups and password revolution rules) to nominate convinced to facilitate you are all open with apiece other.</li>
</ul>
<br />Your experiences?<br /><br />I am acute to hear more around how fill with own made team-blogs handiwork in practice: How did you decide come again?

Today, I'm officially launching Blogger-HAT-Lite - a modern blog wherever I share quick comments around changes in merchandise other than blogger, which I think Bloggers may well be interested in, or absolutely need to know around.<br /><br />All Blogger-hints-and-tips readers are invited to visit the locate, subscribe by RSS or subscribe to by email.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Extra than truly thrill ...</b></span><br /><br />Blogger-HAT-Lite is not around repeating brigth-and-breezy announcements from other services.<br /><br />Instead, it aims to:<br /><br /> Filter these, so to facilitate single ones with (possible) implications representing Blogger users are reported<br /> Suggest questions to facilitate need to be asked and issues to facilitate need delve into around the effect on Blogger integration<br /> Link to in sequence around interrelated topics - especially ones to facilitate converse around cost to facilitate the fill with making the real thing changes may well not own notion around.<br />

I happening Blogger-Hints-and-Tips representing my own comments around Blogger, especially problems to facilitate I couldn't discovery the answers to by googling.<br /><br />It was furthermore a test-bed representing tools like Analytics to facilitate I wanted to consume on my foremost blog, but considered necessary to try elsewhere chief. After installing it, I notice to facilitate other fill with were looking representing the same answers - and what time they googled, my comments were come again? They found.<br /><br />I quickly found to facilitate the for the most part appealing topics were around making Blogger "play nicely" with other products, sooner than Blogger itself. At the same stage, I aimed to run through 15 minutes/day answering questions in the Blogger Help Forum - to say credit representing all the help I acknowledged what time I was getting happening.<br /><br />Typing the same answers larger than and larger than got dull, and what time I found something modern soon after on to facilitate would own tainted a preceding answer, it wasn't feasible to discovery the earlier answers and renew them. So I happening script articles around things to facilitate fill with were asking representing help with, so I can truly link to the article from the debate.<br /><br />So I happening researching and script longer articles with the background, solution and the wider cost (what will you distinguish? Come again? Look after your readers distinguish? Come again? Besides look after you need to think around?).<br /><br />These articles can be converted into out-dated due to changes the other merchandise, to facilitate I might not notice. So I happening recital the endorsed announcements around Picasa, AdSense, Analytics, Gmail, Maps, et cetera - so to facilitate I knew come again?

Simple math shows to facilitate I'm not departing to be able to put pen to paper articles to facilitate touch my delve into principles, in the stage promptly own. And I keep bearing in mind modern things to facilitate I'd would love to explore but know I won't comprehend around to.<br /><br />So Blogger-HAT-LITE is:<br /><ul>
<li> A interior representing quick comments around these issues</li>
<li> A way to keep track of appealing things I distinguish,and </li>
<li> A place to share interesting-but not-fully-researched updates with my readers.</li>
</ul>
<br />What's covered:<br /><br />Blogger users can consume hundreds of other products in conjunction with theeir blogs. Any spammer can usual up a feed-based locate to facilitate searches other sites representing the word "blogger" and reposts the results.<br /><br />Instead, I've selected a bracket together of products to examine: Ones to facilitate I consume and propose, and which I a know a lot in life of Blogger-users consume. So far the roll includes:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Picasa</li>

This article is around how to edit Blogger templates, using either the old or modern interfaces.<br /><br />It chains many other articles on this locate, which conjure up individual guide changes to solve detail problems.<a name='more'></a><br /><br />Previously, I've looked next to whether it's a respectable goal to edit your Blogger guide or not.<br /><br />For many fill with, cutting the guide is acceptable, since it is the single way to look after come again? They would like (remove the attribution, fair a implement on the homeppage single, add a Facebook like button to posts, etc).<br /><br />During common, the process to chase is:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Open the template-editor</li>
<li> Make a back-up ape of the guide, as it is promptly</li>
<li> Make the revolution</li>
<li> Check to facilitate it factory, and if not, make for back to the preceding guide.</li>
</ul>
<br />Of avenue it's not quite to facilitate clean - at hand are discrete procedures representing working with dynamic in opposition to designer or design templates.<br /><br />How to candid Blogger's guide editor, representing dynamic guide blogs:<br /><br />If your blog has a dynamic guide, followed by consume the see-all-posts icon representing the blog to comprehend into it the blog-options screen representing the blog to facilitate you would like to edit.<br /><br />When you are in the see-all-posts mode, the the attend to fasten in your browser is like this:<br /><br /> Http://www.Blogger.Com/blogger.G?BlogID=5381944372768369653#allposts/postNum=0<br /><br />Copy your blogID total - to facilitate is, the digits amid blogID= and #allposts (it's bold in the illustration above)<br /><br />Go make for<br /><br /> Http://www.Blogger.Com/html?BlogID=NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN<br /><br />Wherever you own replacd NNN... With your blogID<br /><br />Note: The after everything else stage I tried this, it without human intervention opened in the old interface's guide editor. To the same extent until the end of time, nominate convinced you take a backup ape of the guide - distinguish information under or changing this.<br /><br />How to candid Blogger's guide editor, representing non-dynamic templates<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Go to the Design tab</li>
<li> Click Edit HTML</li>
</ul>
<br /> Note: This step has promptly been unconcerned - however I've not here it now representing promptly, since I suspect to facilitate it may well show your face back in upcoming:<br /> Click Proceed<br /><br />How to edit your guide<br />Make a backup ape of your current guide:<br /><br />It's tempting to skip this if you're single making a small revolution. I even skip it myself every so often. And it's not considered necessary if this is the chief stage you've still customised your guide - since you can recover from problems by truly reinstalling the standard guide.<br /><br />But if you would be upset to lose several guide changes you made earlier, or if the revolution you are making promptly is not minor, followed by I strongly propose making a ape or you start, truly in argument. To look after this<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Click the Backup / Restore button go up to the top justification of the control panel (as revealed below)</li>
<li> Click the Download Full Template button, and followed by linger while the organizer downloads.</li>
<li> After the download has finished, discovery the place wherever your notebook puts downloaded annals.</li>
<li> Find the organizer to facilitate was truly twisted,</li>
<li> Rename it to something reasonable</li>
<li> (eg MyBlog guide backup or revolution 31 Jan 2012.Xml)</li>
</ul>
Move the organizer to somewhere safe: Typically somewhere on your notebook is fine - or you nominate like to upload it to somewhere like Google Docs, to be extremely selected to facilitate it won't comprehend lost.<br /><br />Make the revolution to your guide:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Check whether the revolution you are making needs the Expand Widgets checkbox sour or on, and plunk it to the justification state.</li>
<li> (If the article revealing you would like to revolution doesn't allusion it, followed by believe it must be sour.)</li>
<li> Find the code you need to revolution:</li>
<li> See this article from Southern Speakers if you're not convinced how to consume the find-feature to facilitate Blogger own promptly built into the guide editor.</li>
</ul>
<br /> Note: Many of the "how to" articles say to nominate convinced to facilitate the Expand Widgets checkbox sour or on. This checkbox has promptly been unconcerned from Blogger's guide editor. If the information you are following says to leave it "off", followed by you must truly be able to chase it as is. However if you are told to try it on, followed by you need to discovery the correct part of the code by searching representing the widget-id or section appoint, and followed by "unfold" to facilitate to distinguish the complete code. <br /><br /> Make the revolution (this article doesn't make for into the main beliefs of guide design, at hand are a load of other articles and websites around to facilitate: I'm assuming to facilitate you know come again? You need to do).<br /><br /> Click the Preview button:<br /><br />If Blogger can nominate get the impression of the revolution you made, followed by a modern window or tab opens, presentation a behold to facilitate looks like your blog's homepage. It's not a real ape of your blog (the relatives won't handiwork, the spacing might not be quite the same, and it will own the word "Preview" diagonally in the top not here corner).<br /><br />Do a quick check to facilitate the screen looks justification - representing a quantity of changes you even be able to tell if the revolution has been winning truly from this preview screen.<br /><br />However: If the modern window/tab shows an slip message like<br /><br /> Your guide can not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please nominate convinced to facilitate all XML elements are blocked appropriately. <br/> XML slip message: The element type "div" be required to be terminated by the matching end-tag "</div>".Error 500<br /><br />Or<br /><br /> Your guide can not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please nominate convinced to facilitate all XML elements are blocked appropriately. <br/> XML slip message: Element type "b:Widget" be required to be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".<br /><br />Followed by Blogger has not been able to understand the revolution you made. Sometimes the slip message gives a clue around what's injure, although it can be misleading. Check to facilitate you made the revolution precisely - set-up several errors and click Preview again. If it still doesn't handiwork, ask representing help from the place to facilitate suggested the revolution you are making.<br /><br />Once you are content to facilitate the preview screen looks OK, click the Save or Save guide button.<br /><br />How to test your guide revolution:<br /><br />Some guide changes can be checked very effortlessly, every so often from the preview screen.<br /><br />But if your revolution isn't visible on the front screen, you be required to check it in the same way as you own useful it. What to verify depends on your guide type, come again? The revolution was, and come again? Other skin tone (eg the page-gadget as a menu, the archive widget, ) your blog uses. You need to decide come again? To test, based on all of these.<br /><br />At slightest, I alwways click on and check on these things what time I've made a major guide revolution:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> The interior bleep</li>
<li> The items in the menu fasten</li>
<li> A label survey</li>
<li> An archive widget admission</li>
<li> Custom-search-engine results</li>
<li> Explanation</li>
</ul>
<br />And if I'm being particularly reader-focussed, I'll furthermore check these things in more than solitary browser: Typically in the current version of Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome.<br /><br />Fixing Problems:<br /><br />If you discovery to facilitate the guide revolution has caused problems, followed by ou own own a wealth to nominate:<br /><br /> Can you and your readers live with the problems on your blog representing "a while", while you look representing other solutions? <br /><br /> Or <br /><br /> Do you need to remove the revolution justification promptly, so visitors can consume your blog as it was while you solve the issues.<br /><br />There is rejection justification answer to this question: It's a special decision, based on the blog, and your readers.<br /><br />But if you look after need to remove the guide revolution, here's how to look after it:<br /><br /><ul>
<li> Click the Backup / Restore button go up to the top justification of the control panel</li>
<li> Click Choose File and discovery the organizer to facilitate you downloaded earlier</li>
<li> Click Upload.</li>
</ul>
<br />It is unsurpassed to restore your guide or you own tainted several gadgets. If you comprehend a message around widgets being missing, followed by it way to facilitate the gadgets associated with your blog are not the ones referred to in the guide. If this happens, you need to decide whether to deep or delete several "orphaned" ones, and may well need to check their settings again.<br /><br />Making complicated changes:<br /><br />If you your guide may well need a lot in life of "surgery" while you suppose improbable how to nominate a revolution, followed by it may well be a respectable goal to build a undisclosed test-blog to look after the handiwork in, and single ape the contents into your "real" blog guide what time you are selected to facilitate you've got it correct (or correct-enough).<br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800834244470860717.post-18820528298371345742013-11-22T20:15:00.004-08:002013-11-22T20:15:43.701-08:00Country-specific Blogspot URL may affect your earnings - and other things tooThis week, Blogger announced they are redirecting blogspot.Com blogs to nation state individual URLs.<br /><br />This way to facilitate what time someone in India looks next to http://blogger-hints-and-tips.Blogspot.Com/, they will in reality be directed to http://blogger-hints-and-tips.Blogspot.In - and similarly representing other countries, so far I know it's been useful to Australia and New Zealand too.<a name='more'></a><br /><br />This is likely to own affects on other products:<br /><br />AdSense:<br /><br />If you own protected your AdSense ID from malicious consume (and really, you must if you thought around it), followed by you will discovery a quantity of modern entries in your unauthorised sites roll: I truly went into mine and authorised<br /><br /><ul>

However this article from Mashable explains things a lot in life more.<a name='more'></a><br /><br />Of avenue we don't know come again? The effect of this revolution in Google's loom will own on Bloggers - especially persons who rely on search results to comprehend fill with to visit their blogs. But now are a link of predictions:<br /><br />1) SEO, as we know it, will be a reduced amount of and a reduced amount of central. <br /><br />Writing representing person (ish!) beings will be ever-more central.<br /><br />No prizes representing this solitary: SEO's changing all the stage. But I think to facilitate the revolution will be dramatic. Once Google's algorithms know to facilitate a blog is a type of website, and to facilitate it's something to facilitate ordinary fill with would like to plunk gadgets on, and to facilitate gadgets are truly small bits of code to facilitate look after something expedient, followed by searches like "how look after I to plunk a roll of favourtie posts into my blog" are more likely to return posts to facilitate tell you how to consume the link-list implement.<br /><br />2) Good grammar will stuff more<br /><br />The beauty of keyword searches is to facilitate they truly corner related terminology, or clusters of terminology.<br /><br />Today,it doesn't stuff if you say<br /><br /> " This a small number of injure SEO tricks will down the visibility of your blog in search engine effect bleep." <br /><br /> (thanks representing the phrase, Tips and Tricks representing Bloggers)<br /><br />Because, all other things being equal, to facilitate sentence will be found by someone who who searches representing the keywords to facilitate are used.<br /><br />But with a semantic-network in the picture, the way to facilitate the sentences in our blogs are plunk organized is likely to stuff. Searching, representing illustration, representing<br /><br /> "what eats, roots and leaves" in opposition to<br /><br /> "what eats roots and leaves" <br /><br />Is likely to return a greatly discrete usual of results. (Or it would if to facilitate wasn't such a trite illustration to facilitate probably semi of the English grammar websites in the globe consume it already.)<br /><br />Blogger is a long way behind in given that tools to help us put pen to paper better English (or French or Dutch or Portugese or Spanish or Greek or whatever) - they've single certain us a spell-checker in the after everything else day or two, while even Microsoft Word has on hand basic grammar glance, in English next to slightest, representing ages. Perhaps converting from MS word to Blogger via Word will be converted into more central than or.<br /><br />Why this pole:<br /><br />Normally, I single pole around changes to facilitate own already happened, which I think may well affect Blogger-users justification promptly. This is an exception, since I believe we need to be thinking around how the facts in our blogs is structured and presented to to facilitate it makes semantic get the impression. And we need to look after this thinking promptly, not sometime down the track what time Google is presenting semantic search results. (And more to the point, I really liked the Mashable post). <br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800834244470860717.post-25322399035954243622013-11-21T20:50:00.001-08:002013-11-21T20:50:14.411-08:00AdSense has a new ad-sizeAdSense has introduced a quantity of modern ad-unit sizes.<br /><br />The mobile banner is 320px spacious by 50px high spot, and designed representing mobile applications. However if you comprehend your ad-code from AdSense (rather than using Blogger's AdSense gadget), it's offered to plunk on several type of locate. <a name='more'></a> I've plunk an illustration of it, and a regular 468x60 banner to fair the comparison, next to the foundation of the bleep on this locate.<br /><br />There are furthermore a quantity of modern widths representing link-units: These are offered from Blogger's add-a-gadget wizard too - but as until the end of time, if you consume this you own single some degree of formatting control, ie cannot consume AdSense color palates and cannot centre the text.<br /><br />I think to facilitate Google are responsibility a quantity of experiments with mobile-ad units (ones with large buttons, and a a little discrete look) next to the split second: I maxim a quantity of what time I used a smartphone to look next to a non-mobile-enabled locate the other generation. Since followed by, I've enabled the locate representing mobile access ('cos I revealed to facilitate a quarter of the visitors were using mobile devices) - but promptly what time I look next to it, the ads inside posts are not mobile, and at hand are no one next to the top of foundation (where they were before). So - rejection conclusions around come again? We must be responsibility next to the split second, but I suspect to facilitate the best-practise now might be changing. <br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800834244470860717.post-13168324571377273902013-11-21T20:49:00.001-08:002013-11-21T20:49:34.366-08:00Getting blog videos indexed, with schema.orgYou can plunk videos into blog pole using an icon on the post-editor toolbar - they are solitary type of organizer to facilitate you don't need to host elsewhere.<br /><br />If you look after this, Google will (eventually) file the contents of your blog pole, based on the text in the pole, and the file-names of the file(s)you've used.<a name='more'></a><br /><br />But the spiders behind search haven't quite got the hang of speech and image recognition yet: As with images, you need to explicity tell them around your content.<br /><br />Webmaster Central own announced a modern way of responsibility this called schema-markup.Org. This asks fill with who provide videos to fair them in their websites using code like this:<br /><br /> <div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.Org/VideoObject"> <h2>Video: <span itemprop="name">Title</span></h2> <meta itemprop="duration" content="T1M33S" /> <meta itemprop="thumbnailURL" content="thumbnail.Jpg" /> <meta itemprop="embedURL" content="http://www.Illustration.Com/videoplayer.Swf?Video=123" /> <object ...> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" ...> </object> <span itemprop="description">Video description</span></div><br /><br /> Sidebar<br /><br /> The code originally certain in Google's pole was missing the / next to the start of the dying </div> statement. I suspect they'll set-up it soon - but it's why you may well comprehend a message like<br /><br /> "your HTML cannot be traditional: Tag is not blocked: DIV"<br /><br /> Fix it by simply changing the support <div> to </div>. <br /><br />Unfortunately the suggested won't handiwork representing Blogger users, since the Post-editor doesn't give permission us consume meta-tags. You can plunk the code into your pole if you would like, but they will be stripped improbable what time the pole is available or viewed in Compose mode.<br /><br />But at hand are a quantity of options you can consume to tell search engines around your capture conent:<br /><br />1) Edit your guide, add a conditional statement to facilitate is single useful to the pole to facilitate contains the capture, and plunk the schema.Org code (without the H2 and Object statement, of course) into the <head> section. Something like this:<br /><br /> <b:If cond='data:Blog.Url == "http://url of your post"'><br /><br /> PUT THE SCHEMA.ORG META-TAG STATEMENTS IN HERE<br /><br /> </b:If><br /><br />Disclaimer: I haven't tried ths myself. But it strikes me to facilitate it must handiwork, collapse the way we deal with other meta-tags what time compulsory. However "should" is an "interesting" word. Maybe it won't handiwork, if the tags are not in the same <div> as the capture.<br /><br />2) Put the explanation of the capture into the blog-post - truly handiwork it into the text effortlessly.<br /><br />3) Use a title statement to collapse the capture a quantity of linger text LINK (I conjecture this factory representing videos - haven't tried it) or alt-text.<br /><br />For both of the after everything else two, remember to facilitate indexing of text on your blog will link to your blog-post, not to the capture, so it may well not comprehend the "videos are cool" dynamic to facilitate seems to influence search results. But they are both unproblematic things to look after.<br /><br />4) Load your capture to Youtube (or Vimeo or wherever), and plunk the content explanation into the fields at hand, along with relatives to your blog, of avenue.<br /><br />This will own the vids-are-cool effect, but the search traffic will make for to the host locate, and may well not still comprehend to your blog - to comprehend several search-traffic benefit, you need to to own respectable relatives to your blog in their the video-site in sequence, or respectable promotion of it in the capture itself.<br /><br />5) Or maybe the Video Sitemaps or mRSS feeds loom to facilitate Google's article LINK furthermore mentioned handiwork well-enough representing Blogger-users. (Sorry, I own rejection stage to investigate either of these - am acute to comprehend explanation from everybody knows more around them though.)<br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13637543878961178779noreply@blogger.com0
