Lost Your Mind? How to Write Quickly
Sometime we don’t know what do we have to write in our blog if we lose our mind. I hope a few steps below may help you to write quickly.
Free up your mind
Our daily activities may affect the way we think. Too many problems we have along the day is stressful. Writing needs a comfortable and a good feeling. So, we have to enjoy our time when trying to write about something. We need to take enough rest, sleeping earlier at night if possible. I realize that this is not easy, because when we are already online, we’ll do several jobs at the same time such as chatting with your friends via IM while watching your favorite TV programs, even more we pick up the phone although we don’t know if it is an important call. These are common problems that can bother us to focus on what we want to write about.
Be Confident
To begin writing a post is not always fun. We often feel that what we want to write is not perfect for reading. Do not hesitate what you want to do next, just be your self. Write it with your own style even if the same subject is already written by others. You can tell it with your own language. This is the art of story telling that we should always take care of. » Continue reading….
Deadline Comes Crazy?
Deadline Comes Crazy - ArmandBook.com
Managing multiple blogs same how we manage a few company with one manager in it, one worker, and unpredictable number of clients. Why unpredictable? because we don’t know where are we when we get started, I mean when our blog have been promoted to public readers.
One Manager
I’ve just said that blog is like a huge company to manage. We must control everything to make our company exists. At the same time we have to provide a good service to our clients and give some support as feedback that come from our public readers.
There’s a little thing that make it easy to maintain a blog, we can manage the time as we like. We don’t have to wait until the alarm wake us up in the morning, except if you have another primary job and you should go to your office early. This would be a different thing for a full time blogger. They’ll spend most of their time to sit in front of their computer and think what’s the next release post.
One Employee
Maybe you would never think to make a blog and it would become larger by its contents and subscribers. The time is running out then you feel that your blog is now a valuable thing in your life. You can’t enjoy your day without creating a new post each day. Meanwhile, it’s your responsibility to keep it exists, now you’re an employee at your own company with yourself as the manager at the same time. Is it crazy? of course not. There are many large company that nothing in it at the first, but it comes larger because the owner always consistence. You’re the manager! » Continue reading….
Hiding Installed Plugins For Security Reason
Do you know that we can see the lists of what plugins have been installed in our wordpress blo? Visitors can see them all by accessing http://www.wpblogname.com/wp-content/plugins. There’s a nice tips I’ve just read and it’s very simple to implement.
Log in to your blog cpanel and upload a blank file named index.php or index.html into your plugins directory. The blank file may contain some code like this:
<?php
?>
Don’t forget to save the file as index.php or index.html. From now on, when someone try to access the URL above, they will see only a blank page, nothing will be displayed. This tip is for security reason only. So, people won’t see what plugins are installed.
There’s also a good idea to redirect it to our blog homepage, then the code will be like this:
<?php
header(”Location:http://www.wpblogname.com/”);
?>
If you want some more privacy, you can also upload this file into wp-content/themes and wp-content/uploads directory with the same results. I’ve found this in a few professional wordpress blogs. We can see the list of themes installed under the themes folder and a list of uploaded files under uploads folder. It’s not a good thing to show it to everyone, right.
That’s all.
