Importance of Social Bookmarks in the Template

Social Bookmarks are essential for web advertising. By saying that i make my point clear about that it is necessary to promote your blog(s) and websites added in the social bookmarks. The question comes on how exactly will you advertise on the different social bookmark websites. That problem is solved by one of the Social bookmark submitters like Add to Bookmarks or Addme. Many people even go as far as paying others to bookmark their sites. All these ways work, but ok you can pay one guy, ten guys, twenty guys. It will end somewhere, but your site won’t end. You will have to keep going, so how will you get each and every single one of your user to bookmark your website or blog posts.

An easy way to do is by placing icons for the most popular social bookmark service below your post. What this will do is when someone reads the post, and they really like it. They will just click on the icon to stumble, digg, or add it to other bookmarks rather than going through the hassle of manually submitting each. I did it on balkhis and it helps alot. I am happy to offer it to my loyal users also. I hope you guys will make a good use out of this information and hopefully it helps your site. If this advice helps any of you and you get results, don’t be shy about posting your results here.

Following are the list of services that is included:

Digg
Del.icio.us
Technorati
Blinklist
Furl
Reddit
My Yahoo
Spurl
Live
Magnolia
Netvouz
Backflip
Google
Newsvine
Ask
Raw Sugar
Stumbleupon

This is only workable for wordpress, you can make it work with other scripts by changing the url codes to another site.

Expansion – Free Template for phpLD and WordPress

Expansion is a theme releasd for both Wordpress and phpLD. It is released for phpLD version 3.3 and 2.1.2 and Wordpress (Latest edition). This theme is designed by Uzzz Productions and is released by the courtesy of Genuine Web Directory and Balkhis Inc.

We tried to make this theme a combo package, but it was sliced in such a way that it can easily be used individually for each. If you see on the demo link for the blog, there are no buttons on the top, they can be easily added if one wants to use it as a combo for directory and wordpress. Logo.psd is included in each file, so it is easily editable. This theme is released on a As IS basis so do not ask me to make free custom editions to the template because the Uzzz Team will not do it. Second, this template is to be used only if you follow the Terms of Service which is that you must leave all footer links intact unless you have Written Permision by me, or Steve (Owner of Genuine Web Directory).

I agree with him entirely and i wanted to elaborate on this subject with my thoughts therefore i tried something different. I have never done this before, I recorded myself in a video and talked so i want you guys to tell me what you think of it.

Here it is

Canoe Experience (Pictures and Experience)

Alright, as promised, i have finally uploaded the pictures where i was at the trip. In this trip, it was the owner of Expression Image, Uzzz SEO Group, and i invited my parents to come with us. This was at South Florida, in Jupiter a place called Canoe Outfitters. We faced tons of alligators, it was very scary, so it is definately not recommended going in this season or so the guy said because according to them they are not on the surface in summer. There were two dams that we went down to. It requires moderate work to get across this 8 mile course. 4 mile up and 4 mile down. Take a 1.5 hour for every hour you spent going down because when coming back up you are travelling against the current. You have to be quiet so you do not disturb the animals in the jungle. Possible animals are wolves, different type of snakes, turtles, alligators, fox and such. This is completely natural the dams are made of tree woods. You will have to use the surrounding around you to get across as in trees and such.

Check out the pictures below.
