Karol K — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 16:03:48 +0000

Your WordPress blog has crashed … now what?! Not a happy day when this happens. I know, I had one. Luckily, just one. For a new blog this isn’t actually that big of a deal. In most cases you can go even as far as installing the whole blog one more time, and tracking down the cause of the crash, but for blogs that have been around for a while and have a constant stream of people visiting them this may result in some serious consequences…

If we add software like Microsoft Live Writer to the equation then there’s hard to see a reason for posting anything via email.

Only there is one. Continue reading to find out more.

Understanding robots.txt and What it Can Do for a WordPress Blog

Karol K — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 14:45:24 +0000

Robots.txt is an important file for every online publishing system, not only WordPress. Actually, I have a really not-cool (but still kind of funny) story regarding this file. For something like a year the ads haven’t been displaying on any of my archive pages or category pages on my blog. All because of one small robots.txt mistake.

Getting the Permalink Settings for WordPress Just Right

Karol K — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 00:16:25 +0000

It doesn’t seem like a challenge, does it? But hear me out, as a matter of fact permalink settings can have a big impact on every blog’s search engine rankings, and its “user-friendliness.”

Before I share my opinion on which ones of those I think are worth using and which aren’t, first let’s discuss the main purpose of permalinks. There are two, like I’ve mentioned briefly in the first paragraph.

Karol K — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 15:36:52 +0000
