UpdateWordpress 2.4

Well, i thought to give you all an update regarding Wordpress 2.5 . I installed Wordpress 2.5 locally on my computer, since it’s easy to install and update it locally. Wordpress 2.5 is set to release today(yay!) and I’ll update ASAP(I’ll be sleeping at that time).

I’ll describe what all has already been implemented in Wordpress 2.5 and how the Wordpress 2.5 administration panel looks like.

Why StumbleUpon traffic is the BEST Quality traffic

StumbleUpon

I have been experimenting a lot with StumbleUpon and trying to get the most out of it. The traffic i have received(am still receiving) is of excellent quality and has converted well.

Before i posted that how to get traffic from StumbleUpon. Today i am going to show you WHY StumbleUpon traffic is one of the BEST quality traffic and why i LOVE it.

StumbleUpon sends continuous traffic
One of the reasons why i LOVE StumbleUpon is that, it keeps sending you traffic. I was worried for one of my blogs, Winkk, which i mentioned in the recent PR update post , I wasn’t doing any marketing and promotions, but StumbleUpon saved me!

Another silent Google PageRank update?

PageRank
It looks like as if Google is dishing out PageRank update once again! It’s fairly been nearly 1 and half a month since Google dished out PageRank update. This update is pretty unusual than the last one. Looks like they have changed the pattern.

In this update PageRank seems to go down for internal pages of the site. Not all sites’ PR has been reflected yet, i guess will be updated soon.

Keep ReadingWhy to Use Images within Blog posts?

How’s the new look?

I changed the look of DiggItLive a little bit. Just had to edit the CSS and had to do some things here n’ there, that’s all. :D I also installed some plugins, removed Adsense ads and made the sidebar look more better.

Now, I’d like to have suggestions regarding what should i change in the theme. Also please let me know if you like the new changes.

BTW, I’ll also put up a logo once i figure out how to properly edit header to put it up. :D
