That plugin is called “AJAXed WordPress”. According to its developer Aaron Harun it is:

A plugin that incorporates the best AJAX Wordpress features and wrap them in a single framework–including such features as inline posts and comments, the ability to paginate posts, submit comments, thread comments, edit comments and posts inline.

The plugin works with a series of “modules”. Modules are mini plugins for the plugin itself, and adds some great features like AJAX page navigation, inline comments, etc. After installation, in your Presentation menu, you have an AWP options panel.

Features:

The main features is that it adds seamless AJAX functionality into your posts, comments and theme in a seamless and easily modifiable way. There are a lot of options to be explored. A lot of special effects are available including the ones supported by scipr.taculou.us and jquery.

Support for expand posts along the post break is also nice.

Known Issues:

Adding large libraries or AJAX functionality can increase the file size by 20-50 kb. So if you prefer to have a light site with few images and greater stability, you would prefer to not use this. For most others who want to bling up their site, however, this plugin is for them.

Google recently published a better, more comprehensive document on SEO or Search Engine Optimization. While the simple report doesn’t contain anything more than what you may already know about SEO, it is definitely better than the very vague guidelines they used to reference!

Download It Here.

I highly recommend you take a look at it, both to refresh your memory and to distinguish all the wrong and contradictory SEO advice you may find out there. Make your blog better, apply some of these SEO techniques if you’re not already doing it.

If you’re using WordPress, the good news is even the default installation is already quite search-engine friendly. Still, there are a few tweaks you can do to get better search engine results.

Although I have made at least $300-$400 a month promoting Brian Gardner’s themes in the past, that’s really an exception because (1) he had the quality and the quantity (2) I used rather “creative” affiliate marketing methods.

While Brian can be credited with starting this whole premium theme craze, his predecessors have done a much shabbier job. Here’s my 3 biggest complaints of premium WordPress themes affiliate programs:

• They Suck at Selling – A lot of themes out there are great, but they do not let visitors know exactly what they would get, and exactly how their offer is different from the huge amount of “premium” themes being regurgitated in the market. Their product pages focus one the demo of the theme, but that’s as far as it gets. You don’t need a 12-page long salespage, but the selling point and the USP just has to be there of they are wasting my time and yours.
• They Pay Peanuts – 20% commissions for your hard work? Come on it has to be a joke. Some theme creators to their credit offer up to 40% commissions, but even that is much lower to some of the good, high-converting products you can find in ClickBank. The fact is, they are selling a digital product with zero delivery cost and no substantial increment cost. The low commissions is just a lack of recognition to the power of affiliates.
• They Provide Almost No Marketing Help – Most of them provide no banners, no email templates, and close to zero marketing help. Could this be because they pretty much don’t get what this “marketing” thing is all about?

It’s almost sad to see the amount of hard-working affiliates working their asses off to make money with these affiliate programs. Affiliate marketing is simple:

Good Product + Converting Salespage + High Commissions / Sale

Leaving out any part of the formula simply results in a waste of time, space and effort for you, as an affiliate. Look around, find better offers. That space on your blog and that small AdWords ad could be making you a lot richer than you are now.

So, the question springs up, what is the best business to be in now? Bet me on this, the answer is Affiliate Marketing.

This is the time where affiliate marketers actually can earn as much as they desire just because the payment depends on the performance. Also, the products being promoted can be ordered via online shopping which is actually a booming business presently.

The best of the reasons for online shopping catching pace is because it is a cost effective way and a competitive one as well. There have also been various polls being conducted which have emphasized the importance of affiliate marketing through SEO during the recession. There are various internet marketing strategies which can also be followed successfully.

Aojon describes it in one of his posts as -

When the market goes up, spend more on advertising.

When the market goes down, spend as much as you possibly can on advertising.

Few other strategies which affiliates should implement in times of recession to come out successful:

• Target the niche users always helps as there increases the chance of a focused search by a prospective customer who is desperate and has the drive to generate sales for him/her and profits for you.
• Increase in conversions and traffic also plays an important role and there comes in effect the role of proper promotional efforts for your product. It is worth remembering that this is a ‘numbers game’ and the more efforts you put in, the more numbers you get.
• Focus more on PPC because there could be a decrease in the final sales of a product, but there would always be focused searches. So, the scope of earning money through pay per click should be well grasped upon.
• Improve networking in these times with fellow bloggers, websites, community forums etc. as these people would be of help when the recession ends. On the recovery, you could be in a good position to capitalize on the surge in spending. Nevertheless, always keep in mind the target market of yours while interacting and making friends.

All said and done, it could also be the right time to change the design of your site and make it more attractive. Always remember, “Looks do Sell”. Also essential is to understand the fact that there cannot be a mercurial rise in the market conditions in the near future, thus it is time to focus and strategize in a better and effective way. Stress more on the volume which can be generated and keep a close eye on the present rends with the decline in spending all across the globe.

Implement these and I hope to see you smiling all through the recession.

Did you know that with the current version of WordPress, you can delete your unused or outdated plugins automatically from the dashboard?

In the previous videos I have shown how to install plugins automatically and also how to upgrade plugins automatically. Now lets look at how to get rid of them

Plugins are now sorted by “Active”, “Most Recently Used” and “Inactive”. Just select the plugins you want to eliminate and choose “Delete” from the “Bulk Actions” tab in your plugins page.

Then you’ll be asked to confirm if you really want to delete the plugin. Of course the answer is Yes or why would you be doing this in the first place?

Then you’ll be asked for your FTP url, user name and password. Unless you’re using some ancient plugin that stopped working ages ago, you should be able to delete your plugins easily.

Watch this YouTube video to see how it’s done:

If you manage a lot of niche WordPress blogs, adding new content becomes a real pain in the ass. Its tough enough to find good content for one blog, so how do you do it for say 20?

You may have come across the idea of using PLR or Private Label Right articles. What this means is that you get ready-made article content to use in any way you want and it’s 100% yours. Most good PLR sites including PLR Product Reviews, PL Rights, PLR Gold and PLR Health Wizard can give you tons of content for a very low price.

If you use these PLR content in a ebook or physical newsletter there’s absolutely no issue. But when you try to use it as online blog / website content you’re hit with a juggernaut problem: DUPLICATE CONTENT.

The problem with PLR articles is that you’re not the only one using them. Yup, about 20-400 other people (depending on the PLR provider) have the exact article content. So the gurus say what you should do next is to “re-write” these articles to make them unique.

But that itself is a paradox – why spend your time re-writing PLR articles when you can just write new ones? Why outsource article rewriting, when you can outsource article writing? Get my point?

That’s the main reason why although I do use PLR content to create free PDF reports and email messages, I never used them as blog content. That has changed recently after I discovered these services:

• Article Marketing Automation – Publish / receive unique articles and get one-way links from blogs
• 1WayLinks – Publish / receive unique articles and get one-way links from blogs
• JetSubmitter - Publish unique articles and get one-way links fro article directories
• Firepow – complete blog network including getting / publishing unique content, one-way links and socal bookmarking and much more.

All those services gave me an opportunity not only to use PLR articles as unique blog content, but also as great SEO and link building tools.

Of course by using the services I mentioned, your main goal with a PLR article is to get as many backlinks as possible by submitting it as content for other blogs and article directories. However, with their built-in article spinner / randomizer functions you should be able to get a more unique version of your PLR article. So in a way it’s killing two birds with one stone – creating content and getting backlinks.

If you have the latest version of WordPress installed, you should be able to upgrade your plugins automatically via the plugins page. However I find most people aren’t using it yet.

To use this all you need to do is to click on “Upgrade Automatically” and follow the instructions.

You’’ll be asked for your FTP address, user name and password. Once you enter those and click on “Upgrade” your WordPress software will automatically deactivate the older version, download and extract the new version, and re-activate it.

How’s that for a time saver?

However, it may not work for all plugins, especially older ones which were not downloaded from the official WordPress plugins site. The good news is that even if it does fail, it probably won’t mess up your blog.

Watch the YouTube video for a tutorial:

Did you know that from WordPress version 2.7 onwards you can automatically search, find, upload and install plugins to your WordPres blog?

This cool feature was in ancient time done by a plugin called “The Installer” but like most plugins, it eventually got forgotten amidst the never ending WordPress version updates. Now not only is it built-in by default, but you can also directly search the WordPress plugins repository and find your favorite plugins.

Or you can also select a plugin in ZIP format on your PC and use that.

The process is darn easy too, I’ll show you how to do it in this video:

Unfortunately sometimes due to heavy traffic or database connection problems, this may not work, But try again later and the auto-install feature will be back in action.

This new feature will definitely help us plugin-obsessed bloggers!

Internet Marketing is the process of using the interactive technologies available via the Internet to further create a dialog with potential customers by connecting with them with good educational content about your company’s products or service offerings.

“Change” is the keyword of every practice and Internet Marketing has also evolved over the years. There has been a sudden burst of click only companies and the success shows that there are a lot of revenues that people have generated. The future of online marketing has been a hot debate topic for quite some time now, but nevertheless, it seems bright.

The online marketing business has grown by leaps and bounds and as this digital revolution keeps growing, the motive behind it has not changed one bit from consumer marketing. The motive has and will remain the same i.e. increasing awareness about your product or service, tracking potential customers and creating value for them. But without doubt, the approach has seen a sea change; be it the way we do business, the way we market, service , sell, communicate, distribute, and work.

The future of online marketing may have the following implementations;

• There will be a transformation from static sites to personalized and dynamic sites which would more effectively enable actual e-commerce. Investment worth millions of dollars in an online business would not raise eye-brows.
• Search Personalization, SEO, rankings and search results will have specially devised internet marketing strategies which will generate more revenue for both the client and the company. This would obviously mean new advertising methods being implemented for the success of the same. This would further result in diversification of strategies and focus on a combination of strategies and advertising models. The concept of 4C’s of Internet Marketing will actually be implemented.
• The corporate citizens across the globe will operate in new digital marketplace wherein almost all e-commerce applications such as shopping, paying bills, entertainment, and banking everywhere will be dealt online. The harbingers of some of these applications have already been implemented in some developed continents.
• The problems of spam, frauds, phishing scams and identity theft concerns will continue, but strict measures will be implemented. This would lead to a reduction in display of banner ads, PPC methods, click frauds etc. Another important concept will be the upsurge in information publishing and copyright of free copyright articles.
• The achievement of Marketing ROI will become more difficult as there would be a plethora of similar services being offered by many sites. This would further result in increased competition which may go the unethical way at times.

The future might also have many surprises in store when it comes to internet marketing strategies, promotional activities, functional specifications etc. but one thing is for sure, there seems to be very less saturation in the online marketing sphere in the few decades to come. Making money online would not remain a secret anymore and internet marketing would evolve to be something more than just another business tool. The internet and internet marketing would probably become more than “OUR LIVES”.
