(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...Since I moved to my own host I played with a few useful tools.
- I already commented on the wordpress plugins I use. Today I’m adding OneClick – single click plugin installer & updater – it makes it really easy to install a plugin by a URL). It also has a Firefox extension, which I didn’t install. I just revisted Moti’s comment on the above post, and saw this was one of his recommendations. The other recommendation I accepted is FeedBurner FeedSmith, although I already implemented itse functionality with the redirect plugin.
- A handy tool (depending on your hosting solution) is PHPShell. It uses the provided PHP to give you an easy shell, if your provider doesn’t give you one.
- Finally, Google’s webmasters’ toolkit is a good tool for analysing your blog/site – recommened.
What tools do you use?
Also, I just saw my old pagerank of 4 is gone now, because I have no direct links to this blog, just to the old Blogger one (well, was to be expected). I’d appreciate it if any of you with incoming blogroll links update to the new website (yeah I know, I should start a blogroll as well … someday).
P.S.
Heroes season 3 appears to be less bad than season 2.
Eli:
I’ve switched from the Challenge plugin to one called stupid-captcha (after modyfing it a little). It works better for me because when the commenter doesn’t enter an anti-spam answer, a Javascript popup points to it, instead of running away to another page.
The problem with jumping to a separate page is that when you press back you lose your post’s contents. This used to annoy me immensely.

Sounds good, will do it on my next blog-patching 🙂
