Digi Auto Links Plugin

I’ve taken the plunge and actually BOUGHT a plugin.
It’s called DIGI AUTO LINKS, and what it does is use wordpress’s pingback system to build links between my posts and related posts on other websites.
It’s automated, and runs by a cron job.
It has the useful side-effect of adding loads of relevant tags to my posts, as well..

Right Now, you can get this great plugin for 66% discount, but I’m not sure for how long.. DIGI AUTO LINKS – DISCOUNT PRICE

So don’t complain if you’ve already missed the discount..

Twitter Marketing

One of my sites has a MASSIVE number of followers on Twitter.
I’ve decided to try and leverage these followers by sending them the occasional affiliate advert. All I need to do is create a post about it, containing the appropriate link, and it will get tweeted via feedburner.
That’s not instantaneous though, so I’ve re-installed Twitter Tools* so that I can post immediately to Twitter when I create the post. The post will then get re-tweeted slightly differently when feedburner picks it up.
Anyone subscribing to RSS or e-mail via feedburner will also receive the adverts.. Result.

I’ve also added a Twitter box on the homepage, which displays the website’s last few Tweets.. and users can Tweet from there as well..

The first advert going out is for Unlimited Web Hosting, who host ALL of my sites. I REALLY rate them highly, so I have no qualms about recommending them.

* Not as easy as it sounds – I had to register as a Twitter developer, create a Twitter Application for the website, and go through the authentication process to make it work..

Cache Issues

Due to abysmal page load times, and the “that module is evil” comment from unlimited support, I have removed wp_super_cache from supercars-for-sale.com, and replaced it with “quick_cache”.

No issues so far, other than a clash with the contact form plugin. So I’ve replaced that with the very stylish “contact_me” plugin.
This includes a complete CRM system (contactme.com).. Not sure if I need that, but hey..

Anyway, the page load time is now VERY fast.
I’ve also removed a load of deactivated plugins, just in case..

Gotta get this right, I’m expecting my first PAID ads for this site VERY soon..

All sorts of problems

Came back from holidays to find three sites down!
a SWIFT E-MAIL TO UNLIMITED support, and it turns out that all three had been suspended for hogging the server last Thursday. Sites re-enabled, and tracing switched on. We’ll see what’s going on..
RSS feeds don’t seem to be getting updates properly, either. I’ve manually updated the feeds this morning. The two issues may be related. (eBay RSS feeds..)

Google Plus (+)

Added the Google Plus button to www.quirkycars.net, www.supercars-for-sale.com, www.nervejam.com and www.synteknik.com

Also corrected a weird template problem on www.synteknik.com: you can now click on the post title to go directly to the (external) post, rather than having to go via the category tag.. odd. No idea how that happened. Fixed now.
