Adding Google Analytics to your WordPress Blog

jerry — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 08:32:17 +0000

Google Analytics is another very useful tool provided by Google for webmasters to track and analylize visitors and traffic. Adding this to a static html website is a case of copying and pasting the generated code onto your web page.

With WordPress it comes in the form of a plug in.

Watch the video below for a quick run through of how to install this great plug in.

Permalinks on your WordPress Blog

jerry — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 23:29:40 +0000

This is a quick run through of a couple of things to do straight after installing your wordpress blog. The important part is the permalinks, this is the part of the URL that displays in the browser bar.
By default WordPress runs a not so search engine friendly URL which looks something like this:

http://www.yourwebsite.com?=yourpostname

Now while this is fine they don’t tell the search engines or anyone else for that matter what this post is about.

Watch the video below for the preferred method.

Installing WordPress Tutorial

jerry — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 20:19:57 +0000

WordPress is the first choice for many and installing WordPress on your own server is even better because this will give you more control over the plugins and themes, as well as customizing it to your needs. Some online blog services can shut you down without any reason just from recieving 1 complaint. Imagine that? losing however many months or years of content at the press of a button!!

If you have C panel with your web host you can usually install via fantastico clicking one or two buttons. If you have fantastico on your C panel you can avoid doing this way of installation, although this gives you a better understanding of the process. Click here for a Video tutorial on installing WordPress via the C panel.

Step 1.
Go to wordpress.org and click ‘downloads’ from the horizontal menu and download the zip file. Extract this to your local folder.

For Initial Steps of setting up hosting and using winzip and ftp files please refer to these resources:

http://www.winzip.com
http://www.ftpplanet.com/ftpresources/basics.htm

Step 2.
Once uploaded, you’ll need to create a MySQL database. Find the MySQL in your host’s control panel.

Then create a new database:

· Fill out the name of the database
· Click to go back
· Create a user and password
· Again click to go back

Then select ‘all’ under Privileges and add user to the database.

Step 3.
Rename the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php
And open in a text editor to fill out your database details

Step 4.
Upload the files to your server either onto the top root if you want the blog to be your main website or into a subfolder, usually named ‘blog’.

Or just drag the whole ‘wordpress’ folder to your root directory and rename it.

Step 5.
Run the install script by going to it in your browser.
* If you installed WordPress in the root directory, you should visit: http://yoursiteexample.com/wp-admin/install.php

* If you installed WordPress in its own subdirectory called blog, for example, you should visit: http://yoursiteexample.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php
