HOW TO BECOME A BETTER BLOGGER

Was in a deep discussion with my brother, when my mind bumped on an idea and Immediately I picked up my system and started writing this post.

He (My brother) told me something that is very applicable to virtually everything you find yourself doing in this world, not only as a blogger, so also as an individual, engineer, be it an entrepreneur, or a web developer, and also internet merchant…. so many like that. And what was all this talking and conversation about? It’s simply on how to become a better person.

Hmm! immediate I capped it and my brain booted that I can make something out of this topic. And this is exactly while am here to talk to you on how to become a better blogger.

Guess you are reiterating the words? That was also exactly how I did. “How to become a better blogger” Some would say am I not already a better blogger? After all, am making $10000 in a month, why others would say don’t mind this man, because am already a better and even a pro blogger because my today’s page view was 25,000.

Do you think all these stated illustrations make a person a better blogger? No, is the answer. Making millions of dollars, or have thousands of people visiting your site daily never makes you a better blogger.

After several thinking and findings, I came to a shocking conclusion of how to become a better blogger, which many might find very lovely, why others might flair up the gong, but any which one you fell to; take and make very good use of what you gained.

Below are the several views gathered on how you can become a better blogger.

BECOME AN EXPERT IN YOUR AREAS

Do you even know some people actually started blogging because they heard that people are really making money from blogging? Do you think blogging is majorly for making money?

Today I was discussing with a fellow blogger and an issue came up there when he told me that, “I know blogging is all about someone’s daily encounter” Is that true? In fact, to me that was a very good explanation of what a blogger is.

Are u really expert in the niche of the blogging you took? Or probably most times you call a friend who is a web developer to help you with java script on your blog, because you can’t handle java script.

Most times, am dazzled with the hand work of some bloggers, the likes of Mybloggertricks, justnaira, this guys are a typical example of been perfect and expert in someone’s field of specialization. Likewise so many others who we couldn’t mention in this post. So been an expert in what you do really make you a better blogger than thousands out there.

NEVER YOU COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

Wow! In fact this was actually one of the things that almost drove me out of blogging some few years back. All because I had a friend who was very good at spicing up a blog and me, I only knew some fundamentals, and instead of me to build on the fundamentals I’ve already got, then I begin to compare myself with him to the extent that I almost fade away.

Comparing yourself to other bloggers is very bad. Imagine you as a newbie, and you are comparing yourself with someone that has been in blogging for 5 years…guess you wanna crash.

One Secret you don’t know is that you will always be doing better than the other guys, why the other guy will always be doing better than you.

A man said “Comparing yourself or your success to other people is not only pointless; it’s a sure-fire way to feel like shit”. Face what you are doing, how is it going? Are you progressing? That should be you uppermost target, not others.

WILL YOU LIKE TO EMBRACE THE STRUGGLE?

Yea! Big question that many blogger wouldn’t like to like to answer, and majorly which even allows and gave the starter the gut to start bidding for money when he has not yet gotten recognition.

Anyway, some blogger were so fortunate as at the time when monetization wasn’t so hard like this, so many things that got my attention nowadays is when you just get emails from a new blogger and tell you that please Mr Yourblogcoach “ can I apply for Ad Sense tomorrow?” Because I opened my blog yesterday, the next thing am always doing is to burst into laughter, blogging has a race, struggle which everyone needs to engage and probably it now depends on you.

Some always get light struggle while others get it a large. But anyway, struggling or “hard times “is a normal part of self-development or doing anything worthwhile in life.

But most guys don’t want to struggle at all. But remember one thing that “You are not a failure just because you don’t succeed at every new thing you try. The only true failure is to quit trying.”

I’ll like you to comment and share this post to some other people who you also think will benefit from this article as you have right now. There is a word that says “There is love in sharing”, so I wouldn’t want it to be that you’ll only benefit from this, why others wished to. So please share, like, tweet, and make this post go viral.

How To Effectively Use Your New Blogger HTML Editor

Good day friends, how have you been? There is not much to talk about, but there is plenty you have to gain. There is a sweetness in you when you teach and write posts from your experience; I believe you get what i’m trying to pass across. Lately blogger platform changed their HTML Editor and most blogger have been finding it very difficult to use, which I was also a victim anyway.

To use this new blogger HTML Editor is as simple as just mention it, because it has been so made easy for you and I to manage. The Blogger template editor now includes a number of changes that seem interesting and make it much more friendly than it was before. Like I said earlier, the template at first looks very complex to some people but if you take the time-out and check it, it entirely not what you think. So to begin with now, what you see immediately you entire the template are all code starting with numbered and colored lines.

Actually this almost scared me off when I first opened mine by the time it was changed, the template now show us different code snippets: tags, variables, properties, etc. depending on the HTML, CSS, JavaScript and even the language of Blogger – include, b:if and other occurrences.

Actually thanks to blogger that makes job easier, because this is what exactly a very good external editor does, but as from now, it’ll makes it much easier to find that little bug that drives us crazy when we omit quotation marks or add one more semicolon. This mostly is applicable to CSS, which appears in dark blue color without distinguishing selectors and rules.

Do you know what really amazed me the most is the introduction of the number section which appears in front of each fragment of code, and the main function is to be able to pinpoint and correct errors of this type: “Error parsing XML, line 103, column 9: The element … “. Now let’s move to how to use the new blogger template editor, because I believe that’s the exact part people want see you write about.

How to use the new Blogger Template HTML Editor

I need to tell you that the using aspect of the HTML Editor is the most part where most bloggers finds very difficult to tackle, but it’s not hard at all… That is when knowledge been the power comes in. From the researched gathered, the hard aspect of the HTML Editor is how to search out the tags <> like in the old template that it’s just press CTRL + F on your keyboard, then enter what you want to find in the search box that appears inside the editor.

But in the case of the new template, it’s the same procedure but wherein like the old that you press CRTL + F anywhere, this time you have to click within the HTML Editor before you press CRTL + F, or else your search box wouldn’t give you what you want.

And after you have gotten your answer from search box, then you are free to press ENTER button on your keyboard and it should take you to the requested code.

NAVIGATING WIDGET

This is one of the new innovations that have been introduced to the Blogger template. Actually it is called “Jump to Widget” . This a actually helps to navigate within the blogger widgets unlike the old template that you will have to search, so this new HTML Editor is quite simple to handle.

The CSS rules can be found folded at the top of the template, between … and … tags. To expand them, you have to click on the sideways arrow next to the line number.

And so great now, we can preview template in the same widow without you leaving the page and moreso, the ability to go back and customize your template by clicking on the edit Template Another great functionality is that now we can Preview Template in the same window without needing to leave the page and we can easily go back to customize our template by clicking on the Edit Template button.

Finally, Format template re-orders the code, adding indentation automatically. As always, we must use the Save button for the changes to take effect or we can Revert the changes. And that’s it. With a bit of effort, we can easily familiarize with this new HTML editor.

Surely as usual and even reasonable to be something inherent in the human condition, this change does not appeal to many. Same with the Lightbox for images, the new template designer, the new desktop and other new things that have been added in the past. But who now remembers that they once were new?

How to Add Automatic Read more to Your Blogger Homepage

Am actually very excited to write this post, probably maybe because I was fulfilled today. However, this is just by the way. I actually noticed a blog when I was researching for a material, that it wasn’t having automatic read more, I now thought within me that how on earth will a blog won’t have a read more.

And just the main thing that struck me to bring up this article was that the guy’s blog was so disjointed and very long in length, so you have to scroll down down to get some information. Probably you are in that kind of a situation, thank your star because you are in the right place.

Today, I will be sharing and explaining how to summarize content and show only summary of your post with a read more thumbnail in your home page and other pages like Archive page and label page by using an automatic Read More simple script in your template. One of the advantages of using this automatic read more is that it will make your blog load very faster by showing just fewer post instead of showing the whole lot of the posts , and also when we talk about professionalism… you understand now, it’s added.

There is no too much story on how to input the automatic read more, as long as you follow the directives and the steps given to you. And below you will a snapshot of how it will look like after installation

HOW TO INPUT THE CODES

Note: before you make any changes on your templates, always make a backup of it.
1. Login in to your blogger account
2. Then navigate to Template section of your blog and
3. Then move to Edit HTML and use your mouse to mark expand widget template box.
4. Then search for this tag: </head>, Use Ctrl F on your keyboard to search for it.
5. Now place the code below above </head> the tag in your templates

<script type='text/javascript'>
summary_noimg = 300;
summary_img = 300;
img_thumb_height = 120;
img_thumb_width = 120; 
</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[
function removeHtmlTag(strx,chop){
if(strx.indexOf(“<“)!=-1)
{
var s = strx.split(“<“);
for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){
if(s[i].indexOf(“>”)!=-1){
s[i] = s[i].substring(s[i].indexOf(“>”)+1,s[i].length);
}
}
strx = s.join(“”);
}
chop = (chop < strx.length-1) ? chop : strx.length-2;
while(strx.charAt(chop-1)!=’ ‘ && strx.indexOf(‘ ‘,chop)!=-1) chop++;
strx = strx.substring(0,chop-1);
return strx+’…’;
}
function createSummaryAndThumb(pID){
var div = document.getElementById(pID);
var imgtag = “”;
var img = div.getElementsByTagName(“img”);
var summ = summary_noimg;
if(img.length>=1) {
imgtag = ‘<span style=”float:left; padding:0px 10px 5px 0px;”><img src=”‘+img[0].src+'” width=”‘+img_thumb_width+’px” height=”‘+img_thumb_height+’px”/></span>’;
summ = summary_img;
}
var summary = imgtag + ‘<div>’ + removeHtmlTag(div.innerHTML,summ) + ‘</div>’;
div.innerHTML = summary;
}
//]]>
</script>

Note in above codes you can change the numeric numbers according to how you wish it appears on your blog.
summary_noimg = 430; this code will decide how much characters must be shown in the post if that post doesn’t contain any images. I have selected 430 characters.

You can customize it to suit your template
summary_img = 340; If the post contains image, then this code will decide how many characters must be shown in that post. Change the number of characters to be shown to suit your template
img_thumb_height = 100; this tag decides the height of the thumbnail to be shown in the post. Vary the number 100 to suit your template.

img_thumb_width = 120; This tag decides the width of the Thumbnail image to be shown.

Now find <data:post.body/> in your template and replace it with the codes below:

 
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;static_page&quot;'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
<div expr:id='&quot;summary&quot; + data:post.id'><data:post.body/></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>createSummaryAndThumb(&quot;summary<data:post.id/>&quot;);</script>
<div class='readmore-wrap'>
<span class='rmlink' style='font-weight:bold;padding:5px;float:right;text-align:right;'><a expr:href='data:post.url'>Read More</a></span>
</div>
</b:if>
</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><data:post.body/></b:if>

<b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType == "static_page"’><data:post.body/></b:if>

You can now preview your template after youv’ve follow all these steps, and if the codes are well place.. then save. Your homepage is now good to go as it will now look like this:
