Monday How to Movie

With our $10 managed blog hosting deal selling so well I have received a lot of questions on how to modify their WordPress theme. This is one we have had in our knowledgebase for awhile and shows you step by step on how to edit the header.

Before following this movie you may need to change your file permissions for the files. You can view our past movie on how to change those permissions.

Monday How to Movie

This last week I was asked several times on how to get your site into Google. I know a lot of people think that as soon as you buy a domain and set up a site that Google will just find you and start sending you traffic. This could be no further then the truth. There is a vast amount of the web that is not listed in Google. One of the reasons sites are never indexed by Google is because Google doesn’t know it exists.

This video on YouTube provides a great tutorial on how to get your site indexed by Google in 48 hours.

Monday How to Movie

This week and almost every week I get asked how do I change permissions on files. Certain scripts do require that files and folders be writable (chmod 777). Just a word of caution if you make your files and folders writable it can leave your site open to malicious use. If your script needs to update a config file I suggest setting the file back to unwritable when you are done.

Here is the video of how to update file permissions using File Manager in our cPanel. This one comes from our own knowledgebase.

Monday How to Movie

Each week I get asked many questions on how to do something.

Questions range from using robots.txt to editing WordPress themes. Each week based on questions received either through email, in person or via the comments I will add a new how to video that demonstrates how to accomplish that task. If one does not exist I will create one myself and publish it on youtube.

This week I was asked how do I add an image to my sidebar in WordPress.
