This helpful guide will teach you how to use Twitter like a pro and ways to boost your followers.
Building backlinks is crucial to rank your site, but what kind of links should you be after?
Here's a list of just about every useful app you can download to your iPhone/iPad.
Yesterday I decided to breathe new life into the comment system on my blog. As much as I love using Blogger (free hosting, very customisable) some aspects are below par, including the comment form. It’s simple, albeit too simple. You can’t reply to users individually and it’s just visually unappealing. After a bit of research I discovered IntenseDebate offer a great comment form which is also compatible with Blogger, and you can see the results below.
Just visit http://intensedebate.com and sign up, making sure to create an account as a blogger (to install the comment form) and not as a user. If you’re installing it for Blogger, all you need to do is upload your HTML template (after downloading it to your desktop), which they then edit themselves to include their comment form. Then you must copy and paste the completed code they give you into your blog’s HTML template. From your user dashboard on IntenseDebate, you can also alter layout settings, login settings (i.e. Include Twitter, OpenId, Facebook logins) and also how to include number of comments next to your posts.
On a side note, upgrading the comment form has hidden all my old comments and I’m still trying to figure out how to make them visible again (if possible). It’s not a massive deal seeing as I only launched the site a few months ago, but if you’ve been running your blog for a while, then I’d suggest giving a second thought to using IntenseDebate.
Edit: After a little more research, I've decided to go with Disqus, which offers a visually appealing comment form, which you've most likely seen before. I decided to use it because it's more universally recognised than IntenseDebate. Another helpful trick is that it keeps all your old comments, and also links your new comments to Blogger, so if you choose to remove it in the future, you'll keep all your comments! Anyway, to install for Blogger, all you have to do is sign up and install the Disqus widget!
