Create a custom search box for blogger blogs

This post helpful? Share it! Thanks to All!

Under Template->Page Elements tab, click “Add a Page Element” at the place where you want your search box to appear. Select “HTML/JavaScript”.

There are several HTML codes posted on the net. I tried a few, and found the one that works as follows:-

<p align="left"> <form id="searchthis" action="YOUR BLOG URL/search" style="display:inline;" method="get"> <strong>NAME OF YOUR BLOG<br/></strong> <input id="b-query" maxlength="255" name="q" size="20" type="text"/> <input id="b-searchbtn" value="Search" type="submit"/> </form></p>

Remember to change YOUR BLOG URL to the URL or web address of your Blog. Also, change the NAME OF YOUR BLOG to that which you want to call your site.

size="20"

changes the size of the search bar "20"  "30" "40" ......

value="Search"

change the word that appears on the search button.

Link to create and insert the button I like facebook under each blog post blogger

 

The HTML code to insert into their web pages can be generated from this page http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like and then be converted for Blogger. Simplifies everything for you and me providing the code used more generally:

 

<!-- I like to button facebook - start -->
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<iframe allowTransparency='true' expr:src='&quot;http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=&quot; + data:post.url + &quot;&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=100&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=light&quot;' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:40px;'/>
</b:if>
<!-- I like to button facebook - end -->

The first two lines I highlighted in red can usually be removed. Leave the button will only appear on individual post page (it's always the option I prefer). The value in green (450) establishes the width of the element and can decrease if you have problems in your blog.

Enter the code in your template

From the Dashboard, go to Design -> Edit HTML and select the "Expand Widget Templates". Look for the line of code that contains:

post.body

 

or

 

<data:post.body/>

 

This line may be present multiple times. If so, enter the code in the first occurrence and it does not work try the others. Once you find the line, insert the button code before or after depending on whether you like it, respectively, above or below the post. You can then save the template and you're done.

 

Remove the button from the template

If you decide to remove the button from the blog, go to Design -> Edit HTML, select "Expand Widget Templates" and delete everything that lies between the line:

<! - I like to facebook button - start ->

and

<! - I like to button facebook - end ->

 

I urge you to use it without sparingly on my blog, and for me a bit 'of advertising (the best way to thank me!) But also to let me know which articles appreciated more and I can adjust accordingly. Find the button I like facebook high above the title and date of the post! Thanks!

Wp sitemap:Communicate your pages to Google for Wordpress

Over the last couple weeks I’ve been focusing on traffic building, link building and SEO on my WordPress blog. All three of these website strategies go hand in hand and all build on each other.  In this post I will discussing how to make sure your WordPress blog is running efficiently.

WordPress does a lot of cool things in the background to make your website run smoothly. Have you ever noticed that when you change a blog post from one category to another, somehow, someway, you always arrive at the new location?  That’s WordPress doing it’s magic!  Unfortunately, Humans interact with a blog differently than search engine spiders, so while your permalinks might look nice and organized, the search engine spiders might see problems.

The best place to start is with a blog audit. If your WordPress blog is not using Google Webmaster Tools, this is a great place to start.  Google Webmaster tools will not only show you how Google sees your website, but also recommend tips to improve the crawling of your site.

I just did a blog audit and found a couple problems. My sitemap was not getting generated anymore due to permission problems. Even worse the old sitemap had many bad links. Using webmaster tools I could see that Google received 80 posts from me, but only indexed 4. OUCH!  Of course I have many more links in Google from other websites. The sitemap is only a recommendation to Google, but I highly recommend keeping up to date. I used the the Google XML Sitemap plugin.

I also had a duplicate content problem. To me, this is really frustrating, because again, as a human, I see my blog a certain way and it looks fine. Then looking at my website from the search engine spider’s point of view, I see many of my posts repeated as many as 5 times.

You might think that is great… 1 post, 5 entries in Google. Well, it’s not because instead of having one powerful link to your website, you have 5 at 20% power. Try cooking a potato at 20% power, it’s a waste of time.

How does this happen? I was using All-in-One SEO plugin and that is suppose to have canonical links, but I still have duplicate content.

So like any hacker, I built a simple Googlebot tracker to see how Google spiders my site… Wow, not what I expected. There is so much I’m learning from the Googlebot tracker, I will have many posts on this little bot, but for now let’s just say, I bet you are wasting Google’s time with your WordPress blog!

The Googlebot doesn’t just come into your website and spider all your content. In my case it comes and grabs one page and leaves. It’s doing this every couple minutes for a total of about 200-300 per day. Webmaster tools will show you how many times you get spidered, but will not show you what pages get indexed.

I was horrified to see that I was wasting Google juice on tags and categories. If Google is only going to hit your website 100 times a day, you better try to give Google 100 different blog posts. If you have 10 tags per post, you might be giving Google 1 blog post with 10 different links. Google then has to choose which page is the highest priority. You can see how 100 blog posts, can easily turn to 10 blog posts because we all love to tag our stuff.

How do you solve this. First of all it takes time. you have many links in Google and the Googlebot will continue to follow them, which isn’t bad… Don’t try to shut off the Googlebot, just make changes for the future of your website.

1. Make sure you have canonical link set up. This tells Google where the main blog post, and that all the links from categories and tags really are just pointers to the main blog post.
2. Make sure you nofollow internal links to categories, tags, archive, sitemap, etc… Your goal is to drive search engine spiders to your blog posts, not to a category page full of links. There are a few plugins that do this, but I manually did it to my menu and sidebar widgets.
3. If you change you permalinks, make sure you provide Google with 301 redirect messages pointing to the new link.  For this I use permalink redirect plugin.
4. Make sure you sitemap is up-to-date. Not only does the Google XML sitemap plugin update your sitemap, but it also pings Google, Bing, Yahoo and Ask every time you post.
5. Audit your website often. Use Google Webmaster Tools to find mistakes and keep you blog running smoothly.
6. Use analytic software to track visitors to your site.  A free service like Google Analytics will do this well.

Changing the background to a blogger blog

This post helpful ? So share ! Thanks to all friends !

Log in the blog and go to Layout-> Edit HTML, and first back up the template if you make a mistake, you can always go back.
In html code, try the following lines (which could be slightly different, but you should recognize them without problems):

 

body {
  background:$bgcolor;
  margin:0px;
  padding: 0;
  color:$textcolor;
  font:x-small Helvetica sans-serif; 
  font-size/* */:/**/small;
  font-size: /**/small;
  }

 

making changes and adding the line written in red:

 

body {
  background:$bgcolor;
  background-image:url(Image Location);
  margin:0px;
  padding: 0;
  color:$textcolor;
  font:x-small Helvetica sans-serif;
  font-size/* */:/**/small;
  font-size: /**/small;
  }

 

Replacing address with the link to the image you have chosen as background. Save the template and view the blog to see your new background.

 

----Manage image repetition

Following that described above, the image will appear repeatedly: to avoid this effect, add the following line:

 

background-repeat:no-repeat;

 

just below the new line you added earlier. If you want the image repeat only horizontally, the line will instead be added as follows:

 

background-repeat:repeat-x;

 

To have to repeat vertically instead:

 

background-repeat:repeat-y;

 

Make your tests running and trying various combinations of background-repeat.

 

----Manage the position of image

You may have noticed that the image always appears at the top left, you can "move" by adding a third line, the following:

 

background-position:x% y%;

 

Substituting x and y%% two different percentages that "move" the picture: if the percentages are positive, the image moves to the right and down respectively, though the percentages are respectively negative image will move to the left and upward . For example the following line:

 

background-position: -10% 20%;

 

move the picture left (making it out of the page) and below. Then try different combinations to see how these values affect the display image.
Instead of two percent, you can use the words TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, CENTER to decide where to align the image, taking into account that the first value indicates the horizontal positioning (can be LEFT, RIGHT, CENTER) and the second one Vertical (can be TOP, BOTTOM, CENTER, CENTER will apply unless specified). So for example the following line:

 

background-position: center top;

 

display the image at top center.

 

----Managing the scrolling image

If you scroll down, you will see that the image will move along the page. And 'possible but ensure that the image always remains visible even through the page, the image will always be there. To obtain this fourth add the following line:

 

background-attachment: fixed;

 

If you go to see your blog, you will also scroll the image will always be there. To return to the effect of the first, just remove the line or change it as follows:

 

background-attachment: scroll;

 

----Let it all together

Review the html code with all four changes:

 

body {
  background:$bgcolor;
  background-image:url(indirizzo dell'immagine);
  background-repeat:repeat-y;
  background-position:center top;
  background-attachment: fixed;
  margin:0px;
  padding: 0;
  color:$textcolor;
  font:x-small Helvetica sans-serif;
  font-size/* */:/**/small;
  font-size: /**/small;
  }

In this case the added rows will display the image at the center, and will repeat vertically from the top, and  will fixed when scrolling.
