My Websites

Pro Banners

I’m starting to wonder whether I should go for a pro made banner for Librarium Online or not. I have been pretty satisfied with the current banners at LO, but lately the competition between the Warhammer forums have tightened and I feel its time to improve fast. I might go ask Bannaz for help.

Template Update

I updated my template today. Grabbed the header from Thaiairways and edited it slightly in photoshop. Done after 5minutes. Then changed the link colors and the sidebar headers to purple. Also changed the background to grey. I think it looks pretty cool and I like the look of the thai airway women celebrating Loy Krathong in the header :)

Autoblogs for blogging networks

A few other sites have started something they call “blogging network” with pretty good success. I would like to try out the same thing, but what kind of autoblogging software should I use ?

Since I’m on Wordpress there are a few I can choose between, but the next question is, paid or free ? I did try two free autobloggers today at this blog and they seemed to work very well both of them.

The first one was the WP-o-Matic which was pretty good. It could upload the pictures to your own server from the source, but it didn’t create the blog author. The 2nd one was the FeedWordpress which did create the author, but didn’t upload the pictures. I’m currently using the FeedWordpress. I liked that one best out of these two free ones.

There are also a few paid autobloggers; WpRobot, Autoblogged, Sitemile. At this point I’m not going to buy any auto-bloggers so the winner this time is FeedWordpress which is free.

vBulletin 4.01

Starting the upgrade of the forum at Librarium Online soon. I hope they fixed the bug with invalig urls to the social group from the sidebar. I read in the announcement they should fix more than 200 of bug in this release.

WooThemes

I recently just found out that Woothemes.com have some pretty good templates for Wordpress. Most of them you need to pay for which is okay, but I also found some really great free ones too.

New template for LO

Wanted to test out this new template called Hybrid News here before I put it up on Librarium Online. I like it alot, but need to test a little more first. Lets try add a picture too :)

Blog is back

My blog is back. After at least a year I decided to bring back a wordpress blog about stuff on the web and my development of sites. I tried starting alot of sites the last year, but everyone went down the drain after just a few weeks or months. I still have ongoing projects and I hope I one day can succeed with my site #2 :)

Spambots knockin’ on my front door

Lately I’ve had way to many visits of spambots or spamhuman banging on my forum doors, and they get in no matter what I do. Email verification and captcha protection is being used but they still get through. Until I know something else these “spambots” has to be humans.

Wordpress Forum

The last week I’ve been working on my new wordpress forum. It is a forum for wordpress support. Unofficial of course, but I hope I can get it working as expected

Google Pagerank Predictors

I wanted to find out the future pagerank of my site librarium-online.com and did a search on google for “pagerank predictor”. Lots of results came up. I know what my current pagerank for my site is because of the google toolbar. Since google is the creator of the toolbar and the pagerank system I trust this toolbar for showing me the correct information.

Im now gonna list a few of the sites that came up and which did not do a satisfactory job by giving me the information I needed.

Librarium Online Mediakit

The last few days I have been making a better mediakit for Librarium Online in order to get more advertisers. Last night I added an adspace chart that shows the total of the site from head to toe, and just a few hours after there was a new ad in the sitewide header space. We have had alot of advertisers at LO before, but this proves that giving them alot of information in a mediakit makes them trust the site.

Look at the Librarium Online Mediakit

New template

A new template has been installed at rogerandersen.com. I have tried many different templates since the start of this site. Today I bought a template called Pixoble from Storelicious.com.

Site Transfer

Fluid Hosting

The site is now been transfered and the domain have resolved. This went pretty fast. It took less than 24 hours since I clicked the “order” button until the site and databases was transfered and the domain had resolved to the new nameservers. For now this webhost provide really great service.

Librarium Online

The domain has not yet resolved, but I have a temporary URL to access the forum now. You can now access Librarium Online from the following url.

www.librarium-online.com/forums

Remember that there might still be problems on the site because of the domain so you dont need to put up a lot of topics about it. Once the domain has resolved everything will be back to normal.

Fluidhosting.com

Fluid Hosting

Fluidhosting.com is the new webhost. After a little research and comments about this webhost I have decided to move Librarium-Online over there. The file and database is currently on their way over and I hope this new webhost can help us stay online more than what the previous one did. :)
