Broken Link Checker Plugin for Wordpress

Your visitor came from search engine and Got a 404 error. This is the bad thing for website owner that his users are being disappointed. Everyone knows that with the passage of time, websites grows and pages are added continuously.


So, this is very common to get some broken links because sometimes we accidently delete some pages or some of our pages are expired due to many reasons. Then we should have to do something with these broken links so that the users may not get worried.


For wordpress users there are many broken Link Checkers are available but most of them have too many disadvantages. Today, while I was searching, I come across a very powerful and hand plugin named Broken Link Checker.


Broken Link Checker plugin


This nifty plugin runs in the background anytime you’ve got your admin console open, and produces a report in the dashboard if it finds any dud links or missing images. Each row in the table also has a number of options that allow you to fix the problem without leaving the admin console, so it’s quick and easy to fix them.


Configuration



As you can see, configuration is straightforward:



  • Status – this alerts you to any problems found, with a link to the management page. You can also manually restart the scanning process, although this should rarely be necessary.

  • Check every post – here you can configure how frequently your site will be checked.

  • Broken link CSS – until they are fixed, by default any broken links will be displayed as a visual cue to your visitors.

  • Exclusion list – I haven’t found a need to use this as yet.

  • Work session length – pretty self-explanatory!

  • “Delete Post” option – the plugin author doesn’t recommend you use this, and neither do I!


If you change any of these values, don’t forget to click the Update Options button.


Fixing broken links


The management screen displays a table, with each row representing a broken link or missing image. It looks like this:



Here’s a brief explanation of each of the columns:



  • Post – displays the title of the post or page which has the broken link

  • Link text – displays the link text

  • URL – displays the faulty URL, along with an Edit option for you to correct it

  • View – this allows you to view the post or page, as seen by your visitors

  • Edit Post – this takes you to the post editor so you can make changes in context

  • Discard – this removes the row from the table, although it will reappear with the next scan if the link hasn’t been fixed.

  • Unlink – this gives you the option to remove the link from the post, whilst retaining the link text.

Top 10 tips to promote your wordpress blog

1. Title Tags: Basic step for seo, you must follow this step to optimize your post for search engines. For this purpose you should use All in One Seo Pack Plugin. In my opinion, your traffic can be boost upto 100% with this plugin because this adds all the necessary info that are required for seo.

2. One thing more that we always ignore is URL structure that how search engine will get our website indexed and craweld. Decide between the www and non www versions of your site, and redirect one of them to the other use the Redirection plugin to manage all your redirects. But remember that to get benefits from your old url's you should use 302 permanent redirect.

3. Sitemap: What a sitemap actually does?? We can see the links for a site that are visible by design, but this is not necessary for a website to show all urls on all pages or at, at least, home page. That's why we create sitemap to knwo search engines a site complete. You can make a wordpress sitemap with the help of Google XML Sitemaps Plugin.

4. Put your keywords in the H1, H2 Tags: In fact, H1 and H2 tags tells search engines the summary of your post. SO, you should use all your main keywords in Heading tags so that search engines can find the subject matter.

5. Include your keywords in the url of the page: change your permalinks to include the %postname%. To do this, just go to dashboard and click on permalinks and then change as mentioned. This will Really increase traffic.

6. Link to other relevant pages in your site include your keyword in the anchor text, rather than ‘click here’ , with related posts plugin. As you can see that 5 related posts are given at the end of every post that increase stay time for a visitor. This happens when a user finds your post helpful, then he decides to crawl other posts related to current topic.

7. Optimize your images, by giving them relevant names, and using the alt tags to describe your image. You can use SEO Friendly Images Plugin for this purpose. You can see images on my website for this purpose as well.

8. Bookmark your site at Digg, StumbleUpon and Propeller. If you want to bookmark your site on more sites, use a free tool like Onlywire or SocialMarker

9. Submit your rss feed to rss directories. This will help your blog to be indexed quickly by search engines. RSS, actually, tells search engines that new post or page has been created.

10. Find some large forums in your niche and participate in them. Include a link to your site in your forum signature such like Digitalpoint, sitepoint, v7n forums.com

Your wordpress blog must have these SEO plugins


SEO, SEO, SEO. In fact, real traffic of a website is that which comes from search engines just like google, yahoo, msn etc...  So, you have to optimize your wordpress blog to make it search engine friendly. There are several methods to do seo but today, I will explain the functions of best seo plugins for wordpress that will make your blog populated.


I have used blogpsot blog, wordpress blog and static html website, but from all of these wordpress gets indexed quickly as compared to others. So, you should use these plugins to get indexed by search engines and get a lot of traffic.


Search engine optimization for wordpress


1. All in One SEO Pack


This allows you to set the basic SEO stuff for your blog. You need page titles, meta tags, keywords, and descriptions. This plugin allows you to configure them for either your entire blog or on a post by post basis.


2. Redirection


From time to time you make changes on your blog. Sometimes these changes end up breaking your Permalink structure. This often happens when you make a change to an old post, or do an upgrade to Wordpress and make some changes to the permalinks. It’s very very common if you move your blog from one host to another.


Basically what happens is that each post has a unique URL, called a permalink. When this changes, visitors who go to that blog post won’t find it. The redirection plugin helps you fix these problems by redirecting the visitor to the new permalink. This reduces the amount of traffic you get to pages that don’t exist.


3. Robots Meta


By default search engines crawl and index ALL the pages on your blog. This isn’t ideal, because it creates duplicate content and you can get yourself punished by search engines without knowing it. What the Robots Meta plugin allows you to do is tell the search engines which sections of your blog to crawl. This means that you’ll get more respect from search engines, and likely more traffic.


4. SEO Smart Links


One of the key issues with SEO is your internal linking structure. The more you link to a certain page on your blog, the more important it is to your overall content. Search engines treat your internal links as an indication of how well structured your site is. The problem with this is that if you had to manually go and create links to relevant and important posts you’ll spend hours and hours doing it.


SEO Smart links allows you to specify a word, like ‘SEO’ and then link it to a post on your site. Then each time the word SEO appears on your site, it’s automatically turned into a link you specified.


5. SEO Friendly Images


Images also play an important role in your SEO strategy. So it’s important that you tag them correctly. SEO Friendly images allows you to do this, and saves you hours and hours of work. If, like most bloggers you use images in your posts, then this plugin is essential.


6. Google Positioner


It’s important to know your keywords. And this handy plugin allows you to track the keywords you’re getting searches for. It’s pointless selecting a few keywords, then writing some content for those keywords and hoping that the rest goes well. SEO is about being proactive and tracing what works and what doesn’t.


7. Permalinks Moved Permanently


A common mistake bloggers make is choosing the wrong permalink structure. When you start your blog you think you know which is best, and as time goes buy you want to change your permalink structure. The problem with changing your permalink structure is that your traffic will come to a standstill until your site is reindexed, and that could take months.


This plugin is similar to redirect but is an easier and better way to manage permanent permalink changes.


8. Nofollow Case by Case


The nofollow attribute over the last year or two has had a fairly large impact on the blogosphere. All comments in Wordpress by default are nofollow links. This means that no Page Rank (PR) is being given via the link. This plugin changes that and makes comment links valuable again. There are a number of reasons you would want to give away link juice. It’s often used to attract people and encourage them to comment. It can be very useful for new blogs who need some exposure.


9. SEO Slugs


Stop words are ignored by search engines. So most of your post titles have them in, but they are meaningless to search engines. So when you have a post title like this: “What You Can Do Immediately For Higher Rankings” you have a permalink like this: ‘/what-you-can-do-immediately-for-higher-rankings’ but what you really want is for your permalink to look like this: /immediately-higher-rankings.


This plugin automatically removes stop words from the permalink, helping you to rank better.


If you feel this post helpful then why not tweet or digg it. Your comments are welcomed.

Popular Related Post Plugins for Wordpress

This post is very useful for you. In wordpress blog without plugins, it is very tough to run your wordpress blog. Why? Because for adding more features to your blog, you have to install plugins in your wordpress blog.


Ok Come to my point. In this post I am going to show you about some best wordpress related posts plugins. It is very useful for your blog.


Example: Visitors reading your post, after finishing reading, this plugin will show related posts of your visitor reading post. So it is very useful for reader and your blog also.


1. Related Post with Thumbnail (Wp-Thumbie)
2. Related Post by Category
3. Search Engine Related Post
4. Related Post by Tags

You can choose to exclude posts from certain categories as well as exclude pages.


Features



  • Display Related Posts with thumbnail image automatically in content / feed, no need to edit template files

  • Set Thumbnail image sizewordpress related posts plugins

  • Turn on/off Post excerpt

  • set lenth of Post excerpt

  • Different Styling for displaying thumbnail related posts

  • Display Thumbnail related posts in RSS Feeds (Styling issue)


Search Engine Related Post:


This plugin is used to display the search engine related post. That means when someone is referred from a search engine like Google, the plugin show your blog content matched the terms they search for. It is very useful plugin.


Related Post by category:


Related Posts by Category lists similar posts within any post. As a search string the plugin does not use the title of the article nor weighs the content. In fact the category, which was assigned to the post, serves as the source of accordance.


Features



  • Very fast execution

  • No user interface required

  • Post thumbnail integration (WP 2.9 or older)

  • Quick query in only one sql statement

  • Quantity of results and further options are adjustable

  • Foolproven implementing of this plugin


Related Post by Tags:


This plugin provides a sidebar widget containing posts with the thumbnail and post excerpt (POST + THUMBNAIL + POST_EXCERPT) which have similar set of tags as the tag set of the current post


The widget displays on single pages only.


For example, if a post has the tags "tag1", "tag2", and "tag3", and there are other posts in the system with the same tags, those posts will be displayed. If there are not posts that have all three, but some with two of the three, those will be displayed. The sort order for posts with the same number of matching tags.


Efficient Related Post:


There is a problem with related posts plugins, and Efficient Related Posts is fixing that by approaching the problem from a different direction and offering a very different solution.


Basically, current related post plugins build the list of related posts on the fly when the user needs to view it. Since blogs tend to be viewed far more often than they are updated (often hundreds of times more often), these queries are run way more times than they need to be. This not only wastes CPU cycles, but if the queries are slow (which they will be if you have 1000s of posts and tags) then the user gets a poor experience from slow page loads.


Efficient Related Posts moves all this effort into the admin section, finding related posts when a post is saved rather than when the user views it. The advantage is that if the query is slow it happens less often and the post writer is the one that waits rather than the user (which I think is WAY better).


There are limitations. For example, since the related posts are stored as post meta data, we only store a certain number of them (10 by default, but you can set it to whatever you want). This means that if you decide you need to display more than 10, you need to have the plugin re-process all posts. I generally display up to 5 related posts, but store 10 just in case I decide to display more in some areas. Also, since the related posts are calculated when a post is saved, manually adding a tag through the database will have no effect on the related posts, although I recommend not doing that anyway.

You are going to make a blog about "Wordpress Blogging" then you should choose  domain name like dailyblogger, bloggingtips, blogblogging, wordpressblog, wordpresstips, wordpressblogger etc...

How to show AdSense Ads After First or Every Post in Wordpress Blogs

This is the most searched and frequently asked question that How can add google ads at home page after posts.


To do this, You need to edit famous wordpress loop. Such a loop can be found in your current wordpress theme’s index.php. There may be other files present in your theme directory which uses loop like archives.php. They may need to be updated as well.


Listed below are steps to edit loop in index.php file. Similar steps can be performed for other files too, if required.


1. Go to Wordpress Dashboard >>Design >> Theme Editor.


2. Click on index.php or Main Index Template file. It will open in Theme Editor on left.


3. Find a line:


<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

4. Add before it:


 <?php $adcount = 1; ?>

5. So final code will look:


<?php $adcount = 1; ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

6. Now find:


<?php endwhile; ?>

7. Add before it:


<?php $adcount++; ?>

8. So final code will look:


<?php $adcount++; ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

9. Now inside loop, i.e. after “while” line but before “endwhile” line put your AdSense codes. Exact location depend on your choice between ads before post, ads after post, etc. Important thing is you have to put your AdSense code in a if-block. below is an example…


<?php if ($adcount == 1) : ?>

<!-- Put Your AdSense Code here -->

<?php endif; $adcount++; ?>

That’s it. Save changes and check if it works.


Variations…


1. If you want to put ads after first two post…


In step 9 code, Change $adcount == 1 to $adcount == 2


2. If you want to put ads after first three post…


In step 9 code, Change $adcount == 1 to $adcount == 3


3. If you want to put ads after each post…


In step 9 code, Change $adcount == 1 to $adcount == 3. Yes this is same like above. Because AdSense only allows maximum three ad-units on a a single page. This way you avoid blank space created after each post when you directly put AdSense code after each post.
