Web Programming
Years ago I started programming in ASP (Active Server Pages). This was a great language and was fairly easy to migrate into. However, the “cost of inclusion” was rather high as it is a Microsoft language and required (of course) that you be hosted on a Microsoft platform server. Then Microsoft decided to upgrade ASP [...]

Keywords Help
Understanding keywords is essential to having success in driving traffic to your site. The problem is usually that people see a hot topic and decide that is a great keyword. The most popular keywords are not always the best to use though. Sometimes it is better to dig a little deeper and find keywords that [...]
Emerging Media Specialist

As my tag pages grow I have been contemplating how I wanted to handle their appearance. The goal is to have as many post excerpts as possible on each tag page while creating a page that is easy to read. I decided to try something a little different that I have not seen on too [...]
WordPress Template Hierarchy
The WordPress Template Hierarchy is a critical part of truly understanding how your WordPress blog works. Have you ever wondered why some WordPress themes have certain files while others do not? A WordPress theme requires only two files as I have discussed before, the index.php and style.css. If you took a basic WordPress Theme and [...]

WordPress Page Templates
Using WordPress page templates is a great way to create unique pages on your WordPress site. These are not blog posts, but custom pages.

Learn to Troubleshoot
Over the last 20 years I have probably made more money from troubleshooting than anything else. Troubleshooting is the key to doing any type of repair or maintenance work, in any field. In most cases software is developed to solve problems. Some problems are just to increase productivity or make a process easier, but solving [...]

Google AJAX APIs

If you have tried to import a blog from Blogger to WordPress 2.2 you may have been frustrated by an error. The system just returns a message that it can not login to your Blogger account. There is a very simple fix for this error that requires a one character change in the wp-admin/import/blogger.php file. [...]
Plan your Blog, Blog your Plan
Same theory, different words. For years I have listened to business consultants say “Plan your work, work your plan”. A blog is no different. You just have to decide what it is you want to accomplish. Some bloggers just want people reading their blog, others want to make money blogging. Whatever the goal, managing your [...]
CyberCoder gets a new look!
It only took a couple hours, but it sure looks better than the previous design. I launched this site several months ago and spent all my time on the technical aspects instead of the look and feel. I tend to always go “function over fashion” first. But since Garry Conn would not stop teasing me [...]

Register a Domain Name
While the function of registering a Domain Name has not changed much over the last 13 years, the cost has certainly changed.

Garry over at GarryConn.com has an excellent post (er rant) about making money online with Adsense. IMHO, he hits a home run with this post.

Google Voice Local Search
Google has released their voice local search called Goog-411, and it works great ! There has been some mention of this in the past, but this appears to be the first “experimental” release.

WordPress Duplicate Content
One of the problems with WordPress is that it creates a lot of duplicate content, and there have been a lot of conversations on whether search engines, especially Google penalize you for duplicate content. It seems that it is not a penalty but a filter. If you create a standard WordPress site you will have [...]
