Like everyone else, I like using Google Analytics, but if you have a WordPress blog,  there is an BETTER option awaiting you.

The StatPress Plug-in is the best statistic keeper of all.  With it’s awesome layout and its easiness to use, StatPress gives you a better option as a statistic keeper.  It is a free plug-in you can download right off your WordPress administration panel.  Just search the term “Statpress” install it, and you will understand how much easier WordPress makes your life with the StatPress plug-in.

You can keep track of IPs visiting you website, keyword tracking, spider tracking, search engine, who went where in your website, how long they stayed there and a lot more!

Have you ever thought of submitting your website to link directories? Maybe once, twice or even way too many times and you’re just not seeing anything changing with your rankings in search engines?

Every web page you have your link on is always an plus towards your website.  It is like a scaling system, every link to your site is a point towards your website, the website with highest points gets to rank better and a better ranking website is what you want.

Some people might low scale directory sites since they contain many other links.  But do NOT be fooled, every and again every link to your site is a plus and it will work your website up, sometimes it might take the search engines days, weeks and even months to scan that directory site since it contains a lot of links, and only links.

I have had a lot of success with directory sites both in traffic, building reputation, and page rank.  I prefer it to every webmaster and suggest you do not low scale directory sites.

Do you want to make sure no one else sees which website’s you visit?  This technique can come in handy, especially if you are using a shared computer.  This article will explain how to delete your browser’s history on Windows, no matter which browser you use.

So, having troubles with annoying pop-ups that open up out of nowhere?  Well your browser has tools where you can stop any unwanted pop-ups.

Internet Explorer has a pop-up blocker where you can allow certain websites to run pop-ups and you can disallow any other untrusted websites.  You can find more info and a video tutorial on this link: http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=9171

For other browsers, I suggest you to download the Google Toolbar which is featured with bunch of useful tools including a pop-up blocker.

All this is for free!  Never pay for a Pop-up blocker.

This article will explain how to make a social site in a very easy simple steps.  A social site is a website like Facebook and MySpace.  Making one is very easy and simple if you use the right services.

If you are a beginner, which this article is for, then use this site I will recommend you; it’s called Ning.Com and you can create your own social site in seconds.  After you create them you can manage it, buy your own domain and forward it there and whatsoever.

Because of the popularity of facebook.com many students and employees feel the need to access the site either at school or work. Of course this causes their IT pro’s to block this site.

It really doesn’t matter how much they block it, there is always a way to get around it. Facebook proxy can help you get around it the best so make sure you look out for it. Using proxies hids your info, and also makes blocked websites accessible.

The cost of a website can be a huge deal if you do not know what you are expecting.  The cost really depends on what type of a site you are planning to make.

If you are going to make a blog, then your good with about $8 for a domain name per year.

You hosting might cost 5-10$ per month.

If you are making a website for a business, or a website that you will advertise and drive “crazy” traffic to it, then you might still be good for the same amount of money for a domain but..you will have to buy a better hosting service.

Domain = $8/year

Web hosting costs = 10-20$ per month.

For these prices you have to do a good research and get a reliable hosting service.  I recommend Hostgator.com

If you already have your content and files coded and ready to go, good for you.  But if you have nothing right now, you can go 2 ways.

1. Use a free system like WordPress, SMF, PHP-Nuke ect.
2. Get someone to code a script for you.

The cost of a coder will depend on what you are getting done and who you are getting it done with.  I recommend you go to forums.digitalpoint.com and find a coder there, it will be much cheaper then going to a professional company.

You could also do it yourself as well…that’s if you know how to of course.
