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.

Cheap Car Books – Total Site Revamp.

www.cheapcarbooks.com/

The previous theme was based on twentyten. It looked awful.
I’ve spent so much time on my higher-profile sites, that I’ve not touched CCB in months.
Well. Today fixed that.
New Theme “Retro-Fitted”.. Custom menu.
Ad-Rotate. Adsense, Amazon affiliate ads.
New SEO plugin. (all-in-one-SEO -SFWD)
Sorted.

I really MUST mention ad-rotate again here. Set up your ad groups, set up your widgets to use them. Slot in your ads, and you have total control. Wonderful. How I managedusing datafeedr I will never know.

WordPress / Feedburner RSS Issue resolved

For a LONG time, no images have been appearing in the RSS feed for www.quirkycars.net. Now, it’s not as simple as it looks, as the standard WordPress RSS is redirected via a plugin called Feedsmith, to Feedburner.
So, either the images were being removed by feedburner, or they were not there in the output from the site.
So I disabled the plugin, and examined the output directly. No images. (http://www.quirkycars.net/feed). Damn.
Checked the Settings->Read options, correctly set to “Full Text”. No option to block images.
After looking around on the web, I FOUND the problem: Change the RSS address to http://www.quirkycars.net/?feed=rss2 : The images ARE present in that one.
So, then: change the Feedburner RSS feed address to [websiteaddress]/?feed=rss2, and we are sorted. Don’t forget to re-enable Feedsmith..
Sounds simple, but this has taken a LOT of detective work..

Squidoo Revisited

Ive spent a bit of time recently updating my Squidoo lenses.
What the hell is that? I hear you ask..
Well, it’s a kind of Web 2.0 website development system.
You create a Lens (site) by picking modules, and organising them to form a site.
You then configure the modules, and add your content. I find that I get a steady stream of traffic from mine.

I (now) have a separate lens set up for each website, with links to the site, and an RSS feed from it. Lots of pictures, lots of links.

Each site also has eBay and Amazon affiliate modules..

Oh, and apparently my original Squidoo Lens (Quirky Cars) is now a “Featured” Lens…

I’m watching the referrals in GA Stats. May be interesting..
