			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/sitemap.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-849" title="sitemap" src="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/sitemap-294x300.jpg" alt="" width="294" height="300" /></a>A sitemap is often considered redundant in the process of building a website, and that is indeed the fact if you made a sitemap for the sake of having one. By highlighting the importance of having a well constructed sitemap, you will be able to tailor your own sitemap to suit your own needs.</p>
<p><strong>1) Navigation purposes</strong></p>
<p><span>A <strong>sitemap </strong>literally acts as a map of your site. If your visitors browses your site and gets lost between the thousands of pages on your site, they can always refer to your sitemap to see where they are, and navigate through your pages with the utmost ease.</span></p>
<p><strong>2) Conveying your site&#8217;s theme</strong></p>
<p><span><strong></strong><br />
When your visitors load up your sitemap, they will get the gist of your site within a very short amount of time. There is no need to get the &#8220;big picture&#8221; of your site by reading through each page, and by doing that you will be saving your visitors&#8217; time.</span></p>
<p><strong>3) Site optimization purposes</strong></p>
<p><span>When you create a sitemap, you are actually creating a single page which contains links to every single page on your site. Imagine what happens when search engine robots hit this page &#8212; they will follow the links on the sitemap and naturally every single page of your site gets indexed by search engines! It is also for this purpose that a link to the sitemap has to be placed prominently on the front page of your website.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span><strong>4) Organization and relevance</strong><br />
</span></p>
<p><span>A sitemap enables you to have a complete bird&#8217;s eye view of your site structure, and whenever you need to add new content or new sections, you will be able to take the existing hierarchy into consideration just by glancing at the sitemap. As a result, you will have a perfectly organized site with everything sorted according to their relevance. </span></p>
<p><span>From the above reasons, it is most important to implement a sitemap for website projects with a considerable size. Through this way, you will be able to keep your website easily accesible and neatly organized for everyone. </span></p>
<p><strong><span>Recommended Websites for Online Sitemap.xml Generator</span></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-846" title="fonts" src="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/fonts-300x247.gif" alt="" width="300" height="247" />Why Use Embedded Fonts?</strong></p>
<p>Because a font is an <a href="http://www.ampsoft.net/webdesign-l/WindowsMacFonts.html" target="_blank"><strong>operating system</strong></a> resource, not a browser resource. If you have an unusual font installed on your <strong>PC</strong>, it&#8217;s easy to design a website and include that <strong>font</strong>. <strong>You</strong> can see it because the font is installed on your operating system. But if your visitors don&#8217;t have it installed too, their browsers will display their default font instead.</p>
<p>From a page designer&#8217;s perspective, this is a big weakness. You want pages to display like you intend, but can&#8217;t control an individual browser&#8217;s display . No matter how carefully you lay out your page with a particular font, you&#8217;re at the mercy of the user&#8217;s browser when the page is displayed.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s where <a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator" target="_blank">@font-face Generator </a>come in: with them, you don&#8217;t have to worry about browsers defaulting to a more common font. Instead, your font downloads along with the page. This generator is really useful and indeed works really great. Try it for yourself..</p>
<p>You can also download bunch of fonts <a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface" target="_blank">here</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Free Website Promotion&#8230;Why Not?</strong></p>
<p>Can you ever avail of free website promotion? Is that even feasible?</p>
<p>Of course yes! Nowadays, your baby website can amass huge traffic in no time thanks to free website promotion.</p>
<p>How does this free website promotion go anyway? What are things to be done?</p>
<p><strong>1. Enlist your website.</strong></p>
<p>Look for the hottest Internet directories and enlist your site there. This is the easiest and most effective free website promotion tactic. Start with this step and the rest of the good things will follow.</p>
<p>Just don&#8217;t forget to prep your website and make it all spruced up for a higher chance to get accepted in your directory of choice.</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignleft" style="margin: 5px;" title="Google Yahoo MSN" src="../wp-content/uploads/2010/07/4330178394_0bf70f434f_o.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></strong><strong>2. Know your forums.</strong></p>
<p>One reason why forums are created is for free website promotion for everyone. Log in, post actively, let them know about your site in every post and you attract instant visitors right there.</p>
<p><strong>3. Write a press release.</strong></p>
<p>Release your writing prowess and start up a press release that advertises your site! This is a free website promotion tactic that you can do anytime. Type a brief paragraph or two and email it to your friends, colleagues, internet e-zines, newspapers and other media and massive traffic will come to you pronto!</p>
<p><strong>4. Be friendly online.</strong></p>
<p>Free website promotion means you need to be friendly to other webmasters. Why, you ask? So they can link you immediately! Establish contacts and never tire of link requests and exchanges.</p>
<p><strong>5. Write an article.</strong></p>
<p>Say, your website is about your travel agency. Write an article about the perks of traveling or the hottest travel spots in the world. On the concluding paragraph, mention your website in passing. This article works as an advertorial and doubles as a free website promotion approach.</p>
<p><strong>6. Just let the whole world know about your site.</strong></p>
<p>What is free website promotion without the word of mouth? Insert your website, its URL and features in daily conversations and let the good news spread from one mouth to another!</p>
<p><strong>7. Make a banner ad.</strong></p>
<p>Make a banner ad for your site and ask another webmaster to do the same for his site. Then swap!</p>
<p><strong>8. Take up a free website promotion course online.</strong></p>
<p>Yes, there are free website promotion tutorials. But don&#8217;t you know that you can actually take a free website promotion course that can help you out further? Part of the free website promotion program is signing up for newsletters.</p>
<p>When you make a website, you need not pay anything to promote it. You just read it &#8212; there is such a thing as free website promotion!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-657" style="margin: 5px;" title="SEO" src="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/4741909434_f23e0b9def-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />There is no point in building a website unless there are visitors coming in. A major source of traffic for most sites on the Internet is search engines like <strong>Google</strong>, <strong>Yahoo</strong>!, <strong>MSN</strong>, <strong>Altavista </strong>and so on. Hence, by designing a search engine friendly site, you will be able to rank easily in search engines and obtain more visitors.</p>
<p>Major search engines use programs called crawlers or robots to index websites to list on their search result pages. They follow links to a page, reads the content of the page and record it in their own database, pulling up the listing as people search for it.</p>
<p>If you want to make your site indexed easily, you should avoid using frames on your website. Frames will only confuse search engine robots and they might even abandon your site because of that. Moreover, frames make it difficult for users to bookmark a specific page on your site without using long, complicated scripts.</p>
<p>Do not present important information in Flash movies or in images. Search engine robots can only read text on your source code so if you present important words in Flash movies and images rather than textual form, your search engine ranking will be affected dramatically.</p>
<p>Use meta tags accordingly on each and every page of your site so that search engine robots know at first glance what that particular page is about and whether or not to index it. By using meta tags, you are making the search engine robot’s job easier so they will crawl and index your site more frequently.</p>
<p>Stop using wrong <strong>HTML </strong>tags like <span> to style your page. Use <strong>CSS </strong>(<strong>Cascading Style Sheets</strong>) instead because they are more effective and efficient. By using <strong>CSS</strong>, you can eliminate redundant HTML tags and make your pages much lighter and faster to load</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-654" title="Flash" src="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/2902635744_a58ae86ed6_o-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Flash-based</strong> sites have been a craze since the past few years, and as <strong>Adobe </strong>compiles more and more great features into Flash, we can only predict there will be more and more flash sites around the Internet. However, Flash based sites have been disputed to be bloated and unnecessary. Where exactly do we draw the line? Here’s a simple breakdown.</p>
<p>The good:</p>
<p><strong>Interactivity</strong></p>
<p><strong>Flash’s Actionscript</strong> opens up a vast field of possibilities. Programmers and designers have used <strong>Flash </strong>to create interactve features ranging from very lively feedback forms to attractive Flash-based games. This whole new level of interactivity will always leave visitors coming back for more.</p>
<p><strong>A standardized site</strong></p>
<p>With <strong>Flash</strong>, you do not have to worry about cross-browser compatibility. No more woes over how a certain css code displays differently in <strong>Internet Explorer</strong>, <strong>Firefox </strong>and <strong>Opera</strong>. When you position your site elements in Flash, they will always appear as they are as long as the user has Flash Player installed.</p>
<p>Better expression through animation</p>
<p>In Flash, one can make use of its animating features to convey a message in a much more efficient and effective way. Flash is a lightweight option for animation because it is vector based (and hence smaller file sizes) as opposed to real “movie files” that are raster based and hence much larger in size.</p>
<p>The bad and the ugly:</p>
<p><strong>The Flash player</strong></p>
<p>People have to download the Flash player in advance before they can view Flash movies, so by using Flash your visitor range will decrease considerably because not everyone will be willing to download the Flash player just to view your site. You’ll also have to put in additional work in redirecting the user to the Flash download page if he or she doesn’t have the player installed.</p>
<p>Site optimization</p>
<p>If your content was presented in Flash, most search engines wouldn’t be able to index your content. Hence, you will not be able to rank well in search engines and there will be less traffic heading to your site.</p>
<p>Loading time</p>
<p>Users have to wait longer than usual to load Flash content compared to regular text and images, and some visitors might just lose their patience and click the Back button. The longer your Flash takes to load, the more you risk losing visitors.</p>
<p>The best way to go is to use Flash only when you absolutely need the interactivity and motion that comes with it. Otherwise, use a mixture of Flash and HTML or use pure text if your site is purely to present simple textual and graphical information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/wordpressme.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-642 aligncenter" title="wordpressme" src="http://www.rockyrasonable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/wordpressme.png" alt="" width="315" height="91" /></a></p>
<p>Automatic  – the creators of WordPress released their thirteenth major release code named as “Thelonious” and otherwise called as <strong>WordPress 3.0</strong>.</p>
<p>It is indeed worth the upgrade and the options of upgrading should already be available in your blog admin pages. So what is new in <strong><em>WordPress 3.0</em>.</strong> Let’s take a quick look at it -</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>New Default Theme (Twenty Ten):</strong> One of the most refreshing changes is that Kubrick is      gone and there is a new default theme called as the Twenty Ten theme. This      is to go with the new theme APIs. Twenty Ten is a more modern and flexible      theme that takes advantage of a lot of the new features.</li>
<li><strong>A Newer and Lighter Admin Interface:</strong> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">WordPress 3.0</span> comes with a new administration      interface. The new interface has contextual help on every page and has a      light feel to it.</li>
<li><strong>WordPress MU Merger:</strong> WordPress MU has now been designed into the wordpress administration in      WordPress 3.0. This will let users create multiple blogs from a single      installation.</li>
<li><strong>WordPress URL shortener:</strong> URL shortening can now be done from within your blog      as WordPress 3.0 has integrated support for URL shorteners including their      own wp.me.</li>
<li><strong>Choice of Admin name:</strong> You can now choose an admin name when you install a new blog and will not      have to rely on the default “admin” username any more.</li>
</ol>
<p>One of the major bugs that I found after upgrading to the new version was with the plugin “DB Cache Reloaded”. WordPress now has integrated a few new plugins which are probably conflicting with DB cache and producing the below error -</p>
<p>“<em>Call to undefined method wpdb::get_blog_prefix() in /home/xxxx/xxxx/xxxxx.com/public_html/wp-includes/user.php on line XXX</em>“</p>
<p>The easiest resolution to this error is to deactivate the “DB Cache Reloaded” plugin.</p>
<p>In conclusion I should say that WordPress 3.0 will change the way people blog. It is a welcome change – the admin interface and the contextual help and everything else. Upgrade and enjoy.</p>
