75 Adobe Fireworks Extensions-It is better than Photoshop

Posted under SEO Tools, SEO Web Design, Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Search Marketing, Search News, search engine news

Written by speckyboy

We all know how powerful and how great Adobe Photoshop is, we know that all the best graphic designers use it, we also know that Photoshop when mastered lets you create amazing art.

Sadly, we also know it is very, very expensive. Its also very difficult for the novice to master and it takes a hell of a lot of your PC/MACs precious memory and storage. What is the answer?
The answer is Adobe Fireworks CS3, Photoshops lesser used and lesser known little brother. Its far cheaper, easier to learn and reasonably light weight. But, can it be as powerful? Of course, it can. Just like Photoshop the volume of extensions available are extensive, and with the correct extensions can be almost as powerful.
So, what are you waiting? Give Adobe Fireworks a try, I promise, you won’t go back.

Applying onsite seo to website template (or why separation of code and content is a good thing)

Posted under SEO Tools, SEO Web Design, Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Search Marketing, Search News, search engine news

Posted by Duncan Morris

There are lots of people who would class themselves as a developer and would say they can code in any given language. Often the difference between a good developer and a great developer isn't anything to do with the program, how well it works, and how few bugs there are. The great developers make programs that work but they make them in a way that isolates the various components from each other.

I want to run through a few examples and apply these very same thought processes to seo. There are a number of places where it would be beneficial to separate the various logical components of, for example a web site.

Looking for a “Recently Updated” Wordpress Plugin

Posted under SEO Tools, SEO Web Design, Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Search Marketing, Search News, search engine news

So after coming back from SES I had some interesting conversations, looked at some interesting things and came up with a few ideas. One of the things I’d like to try but have never seen is a recently updated function/plugin. How would a recently updated plugin differ from a recently published function … well I’m glad you asked …

Recently updated would be used when you are using pages or posts in a more traditional CMS environment instead of a blog one. For example say you have a library or article database of keystone or flagship content. After the site is 3-4 years old the content may be come outdated. Rather than put up a new page/post with a new URL you decide to use the existing one and update or refresh the content. It would be nice if you could have a list of the ten most recently updated articles or even a page of the 50 or 100 most recently updated pages/posts. Sure you could hack the functionality by changing the publish date but that introduces other complexities.
