Nowadays, many bloggers are trying to optimize their blogs in search engine as well as blogging. I myself also tried some of the techniques that I learned from internet to optimize my site too. Today, I just came across an interesting article about the basic of Search Engine Optimization explained that

Bold text <b>/<strong> is given more weight than ordinary text but not as much as H tags. As much as is reasonable, enclose the search term in bold tags when it appears on the page.

Another article explained that italic (<i>)/emphasic (<em>) tag is also important as well as bold tag.

When mentioning your keywords throughout the page, it’s helpful to put them into italics, bold, or emphasis (<em>) to make sure the search engines know that these words are important.

CSS <span> tags to format text, but search engines don’t have an easy way of determining either of these. Why make the search engines work harder than they need to? Use these basic HTML tags and help yourself (and the engines) out!

How much they will effect in SEO? It is hard to say that those are not really important but they are needed when optimizing the site.

• Or your page have been moved or deleted.

The error number 404 or Page not found error message occurs when the server could not find the page what the client requested. For this case, you should an 404 error document that useful for your visitors and let them know that they’re visiting wrong page and explain what’s 404 Error as much as you can. Or you can redirect to your main site.

For windows IIS server, follow the steps from Microsoft support to create a custom 404 error file and for Linux, create .htaccess under your directory and write the following code:

ErrorDocument 404 /error/404.html #file must be your own one.

If you want to login as administrator account in Windows Vista, you can use the following steps.

1. Run the command prompt as an administrator.

2. Type the following command in command prompt.

net users administrator /active:yes

net users administrator /active:no

Note : You can also use the same technique for other account name too. Use ” ” for the name contains white spaces.

I was faced a problem in Vista today. The problem is that all of the folder-names and file-names were missing in large folder view under my drive in Vista. But I can see under sub folders. Strange ? huh. Take a look at the following snapshot.

That is always happened when we hold the SHIFT key while we’re opening the drive or folder in Vista. To solve this problem, follow the steps.

1. Switch to detail view.

2. Hold down SHIFT key and change to “Medium Icons”.

3. Close the Explorer and re-open it again. There you’ll get your folder names and file names back.

update: It is also happened in XP.

Windows live writer doesn’t have an option to change the default language where you’re living to other language in setting. When I download Live writer from Thailand, it gives me this url which is Thai version. I don’t see any option to select the language in download page.

During setup, I requested my friend to install it because setup is also in Thai language so I did not understand. After I installed, I see all the menus and setting are in Thai language.

Basically, WordPress outputs the blog’s post title as “Blog Title >> Blog Archive >> Blog Post Title”.

For example :

Myo Kyaw Htun . com >> Blog Archive >> Hello World !

But most of the bloggers , they want to get the highest rank in Search Engine. This following code will boost in search engine ranking of your blog. So, if you want to change the way that I made, fine the <title> tag in header.php located in your default template. (Presentation >> Theme Editor). Replace the following codes between <title> and </title> tag.

<?php if ( is_single() ) { wp_title(' '); ?> » Blog Archive - <?php } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?>

So it will look something like that :

Hello World ! » Blog Archive » Myo Kyaw Htun . com
