Post Pic Compress WordPress output and speed your blog’s load speed

WordPress, by default, comes uncompressed and sends the uncompressed HTML to the visitor’s browser. With one line of code added to your header, you can compress WordPress’s output by up to 75%. By using zlib compression technology, you can harness the power of PHP and reduce your blog’s load speed!

cpu-loadFirst, place the following code in a file and call it “test.php” and then upload it to the root of your blog directory:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Make sure that “zlib” is enabled by your hosting provider.

Second, place the following code in your header (above the DOCTYPE):

<?php
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 'On');
ini_set('zlib.output_compression_level', '1');
?>

The Benefits of a WordPress Video Tutorial

The Benefits of a WordPress Video Tutorial


A WordPress video tutorial can teach all you have to know about creating a blog. You can use a WordPress tutorial to use templates and plugins to pimp your blog in ways that will make your mates gasp at your skill. Truth!
Why WordPress
Most people use either Blogger or WordPress for their blog, and there appears to be an ongoing debate as to which is best. I prefer to design my own blogs using Drupal, but that’s not related to this topic. Regarding the Blogger versus WordPress argument, for serious bloggers there is only one answer.
WordPress. That is saying nothing against Blogger: run from Google’s hosting site known as Blogspot, Blogger is an easy blogging system to use, and being easy, it has very little opportunity for customization; however Google users can use Google’s toolbar to add posts or online content to their blog at the click of a button. However, WordPress wins hands down when we consider serious bloggers seeking more detailed customization.
Sure, you can ftp Blogger to your website and run it from there, but if you do the same with WordPress you have an infinitely larger number of possibilities that Blogger cannot even begin to compete against.
WordPress Video Tutorials
If you want to operate WordPress form your website you have to do it right, and it takes some knowledge of how your web space works and also of your online databases. However, learning is well worth it, and there are WordPress video tutorials online that can help you to do so easily. There is a lot involved, but all you have to do is copy what you see on the video and you will get the same result as the video does.
Not only that, but to make best use of it, you should also learn how to use themes, plugins and widgets. These are what make your blog what it is: add AdSense blocks, a calendar or a blogroll – or all three. You can change the entire appearance of your blog if you wish to do so, but you have to know how to do that.
WordPress Templates and Themes
WordPress templates are what give your blog its online appearance. You can choose your theme based upon color, or style. For example you can a space-oriented style, woodland, nature, medical, etc. The themes and templates contain graphics that can represent any topic that your blog is based upon. A basketball theme, for example, could be based upon the Nicks colors, or a science theme on test tubes and other scientific equipment. There are thousands of WordPress templates available online, both free and paid.
WordPress Plugins and Widgets
Plugins are small applications or code that carry out certain actions. For example, you can get a plugin that optimizes your posts for search engines, and a Twitter plugin, for example, will send a tweet each time you make a new post. It will shrink the tweet to a TinyURL link. You can also get a plugin that will provide a calendar on your blog any format you like.
A widget is a small icon that activates these plugins when clicked upon. A good WordPress tutorial will explain these to you, and if you are fortunate and have a WordPress video tutorial, you will see exactly how to put these on your blog and make them work as they should.
Without a doubt, WordPress, in my view, is superior to Blogger as long as you run WordPress form your own website, and the you will require a WordPress video tutorial, to make sure that you install it correctly, and understand properly how to modify and customize your blog to be exactly as you want it to be.
Good Luck!

WordPress Tutorial: How to install WordPress the easy way

WordPress Tutorial: How to install WordPress the easy way

Looking for an easy-to-follow WordPress tutorial? Look no further. Below is what can probably be the world’s most simplified WordPress tutorial.
Wordpress is one amazing blogging platform. It makes everything so easy! In fact, with the way WordPress simplifies things, people can actually use this platform to create dynamic websites that are very easy to update. Indeed, using WordPress is easier than learning and applying HTML codes, using HTML editors like FrontPage and Dreamweaver, learning CSS, and learning how to add content by manually editing the source code. With WordPress, you can just click on “Add New Post,” paste your new content, and click “Publish.” It’s as easy as that!
The problem is, installing WordPress isn’t as easy as using it. This is especially true for people who are forced to manually install this blogging platform. Clearly, WordPress tutorial is needed when it comes to manually installing this wonderful program.
Well, here is the WordPress Tutorial you need. Manual installation of a WordPress blog in 9 simple steps:
1. Decide on whether or not you want the WordPress blog to appear as soon as your visitor would type your URL, like http://www.yourURL.com, or when they type a subpage of your URL, like http://www.yourURL.com/yoursubpage.
2. Download the WordPress installer from http://www.wordpress.org/download.
3. If you want the blog to appear on the main index page of your website, upload the WordPress installer to your website’s public_html folder. If you want the blog to appear on a subpage, upload the WordPress installer to the folder of the subpage you desire. Uploading files to your web hosting service will require an FTP program like Filezilla, or by means of cPanel (go to File Manager and use Upload Files) which comes with most web hosting packages these days. You can also use upload managers from old – and dare I say primitive – hosting services, though they do not allow you to upload an entire folder, hence, you might end up uploading each and every file individually.
4. Extract the uploaded WordPress installer, again via FTP or via cPanel. WordPress will take care of the rest.
5. Create a MySQL database via cPanel. This database will be dedicated to WordPress.
6. Look for the file wp-config-sample.php and rename it to wp-config.php.
7. Open the newly renamed wp-config.php with Notepad. Edit the following lines: define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘(insert the desired name of the database here’); // define(‘insert your MySQL username here’, ”); // define(‘insert your password here’, ”); //
8. Go to http://www.yourURL.com/wp-admin/install.php if your WordPress installer is uploaded in your root folder, or http://www.yourURL.com/subpage/wp-admin/install.php if your WordPress is uploaded in a subpage. Installation will be automatic once the correct page is loaded.
9. Start posting!
The WordPress tutorial above will guide you every step of the way when it comes to manually installing your WordPress blog. Easy, isn’t it? Do it once and you’ll get the hang of it immediately. And before you know it, you’ll be installing WordPress blogs for your friends like a pro!

Most hosts provide a “1 click” installation process for WordPress, but please do check with your hosting provider to verify that your account is WordPress compatible.
