Here is some of what they improved:

• Widget Administration fixes
• Various usability improvements
• Layout fixes for IE

Readers are subscribing when seeing that blogger earns a lot of money in the hope they will find out how to do it. But rarely this will happen because nobody is that fool to tell their secret and worse than that, a lot are lying just to get a strong readership and profit.

Those blogs mean time loss and a good blogger has to manage his time very good to increase productivity, so only subscribe and read the blogs that can really help you, don’t just get fooled by everyone.

Of course nobody will tell big secrets, but by reading a lot of useful informations you can make an idea of what you have to do and test, until you get somewhere good.

What do you think of those bloggers ?

Wordpress has just released a new great version, with improved dashboard, uploader and it comes with gravatars, internal gallery and more.
You can watch the screencast for a better view of what i am talking about.
Get it now.

Hopefully they won’t just lose track of my subscribers and solve the problem, as i am losing both visitors and my subscribers might unsubscribe if they aren’t receiving news from my blogs.

Last month i’ve noticed something opposite from now, when my subscribers went up with more than 100% for one day and then just returned to normally. I’m sure that they subscribed all in one day and then unsubscribed the next one and that was another Feedburner issue.

Are you noticing anything strange today ?

Update: Everything is back to normal now

• Tagging support for Windows Live Writer
• Fixes for a login bug that affected those with a Blog Address different than
  their WordPress Address
• Faster taxonomy database queries, especially tag intersection queries
• Link importer fixes

When selecting examination preparation material for courses like 1z0-042 or even PMI-001, one can also collect material for 350-030 since the course outline is very similar. Same holds true for both 642-892 as well as 642-432. On the other hand, if thinking of attempting 70-291 or even 640-863, one might have to purchase entirely new preparation material as they are entirely different certifications.

This version has brought us some new things, as you may read from the Wordpress official website:

1. Native tagging support allows you to use tags in addition to categories on your posts, if you so choose. We’ve included importers for the Ultimate Tag Warrior, Jerome’s Keywords, Simple Tags, and Bunny’s Technorati Tag plugins so if you’ve already been using a tagging plugin you can bring your data into the new system. The tagging system is also wicked-fast, so your host won’t mind.
2. Our new update notification lets you know when there is a new release of WordPress or when any of the plugins you use has an update available. It works by sending your blog URL, plugins, and version information to our new api.wordpress.org service which then compares it to the plugin database and tells you whats the latest and greatest you can use.
3. We’ve cleaned up URLs a bunch in a feature we call canonical URLs which does things like enforce your no-www preference, redirect posts with changed slugs so a link never goes bad, redirect URLs that get cut off in emails on similar to the correct post, and much more. This helps your users, and it also helps your search engine optimization, as search engines like for each page to be available in one canonical location. More info here.
4. Our new pending review feature will be great for multi-author blogs. It allows authors to submit a post for review by an editor or administrator, where before they would just have to save a draft and hope someone noticed it.
5. There is new advanced WYSIWYG functionality (we call it the kitchen sink button) that allows you to access some features of TinyMCE that were previously hidden.

Also, they’ve released new stuff for developers too:

1. Full and complete Atom 1.0 support, including the publishing protocol.
2. We’re using the new jQuery which is “800% faster.”
3. Behind the user-facing tags system is a really kickass taxonomy system, which adds a ton of flexibility. It’s probably the biggest schema upgrade since version 1.5.
4. The importers have been revamped to be more memory efficient, and you can now add an importer through a plugin.
5. Through hooks and filters you can now override the update system, the dashboard RSS feeds, the feed parser, and tons more than you could in 2.2.
6. The new $wpdb->prepare() way of doing SQL queries.
7. Finally there were over 351 tickets in Trac closed for this release, with over a hundred people contributing. This is the polish, the hundreds of tiny bug fixes and features that make WordPress what it is.

Today, on the Blogrush website appear an announcement that states the CTR is that low because of the users that cheat the system and will fix the issue shortly.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Click- through rates are very low right now due to problems with some users cheating the system. We are a few days away from removing all abuse from the system and you will see your click-rates increase. We are also moving to a Manual Review Process for all member blogs which will also increase the traffic you receive. Thank you for your patience — we’re working hard to improve this beta version of our service.

If you want to try it, feel free to sign up and please tell me your results in a comment. I’m curious if it’s just me or simply the system isn’t working. From as i’ve read, i’m not an isolated case and many bloggers have very low conversions.

I am waiting to see what are they going to do with the cheaters and if they will really improve the CTR. It would be great if they will make it to at least 1%.

You can see my stats, i have 17 referrals that brought me the most of my credits and with a decent CTR, that would be a nice amount of possibly targeted traffic.

Thanks for the tag, Bobby. Now i have to tag others: Alex Ion, Mihnea

Among that, if you write a few posts a day, not much ( and i will say later why ), you will get your subscribers to read your blog, which means you get visitors. I don’t say promotion is not good, but it is better to update your blog with good content than doing link exchange and submit to directories. You have to spend your time both to write content and promote, because even if you get visitors, if they find old, uninteresting content, they leave. So, keep in mind, writing content with a blog with subscriber and not necessarily means getting visitors.
