Another overloading time for Twitter today, My time 29th  April, 2010 at 10:09:42 am.

I am pretty upset with twitter lately as I don’t want to use external APIs to connect. It is because there are too many APIs connecting and looks like the site has been overloaded frequently. With the massive amount of messages flying around the net, especially evening time for US will be pretty much a lot of traffic and load balancing machines at Twitter can probably do nothing about it.

At the other hand, it’s fantastic massive traffic flowing in and out of Twitter and I think twitter can actually give you pretty much of SEO advantage over time, because the indexing method with Twitter is not so bad even though first generated TWEET is not necessarily creating massive traffic. So yea, SEO/SEM wise, it’s a great approach, and it is well-used by many others now.

Anyway, another disappointing experience with Twitter this week, AGAIN and I hope they will improve their accessibility soon.

These days, I am a regular reader rather than a blogger. It is because writing a blog can be sometimes time consuming. Besides, I have been relocating countries and it took about 6 months of my regular blogging habits. So, Yes, I will have to practice to blog again.

To be honest, nowadays, I like to read and review other sites because I find that facinating for other bloggers who have been brilliant with their blogs. I would not rather get an idea or copy/paste other people work, but I actually like to share with what I read, because some of the blogs may not be in your reach while I have done my SEO/SEM works, So, at least, this will reach out to my readers as well.. As you know reviewing is one of my interests while I am blogging.

Today, I read about the title 10 Things Your Blog Doesn’t Need. And It is simple but yet fantastic read, so that you will enjoy like I did.

Reference: Jill Smokler blogs about parenting; the good, the bad and the scary at Scary Mommy. She can be found at on Twitter as @scarymommy.

Generally, People tend to write about great articles and fantastic posts about how to get a traffic, SEO related topics, SEM marketing hits and social networking sources.

What I like about plug-ins for wordpress is somehow not new. But if we choose correctly, definitely It is useful for many bloggers. I am sometimes skeptical about some plug-ins but some plug-ins are definitely fantastic.

I would suggest some of the killer plug-ins are not only useful but also help bloggers to gain more traffic and facilities as well as flexibilities. Speaking of killer plug-ins, if you are usual blogger in all niches and sorts, below are the ones that should not be missed for plug-ins.

• All in one SEO pack – Out-of-the-box SEO for your WordPress blog
• CommentLuv – Plugin to show a link to the last post from the commenter’s blog by parsing the feed at their given URL when they leave a comment. Rewards your readers and encourage more comments
• Contextual Related Post – Show user defined number of contextually related posts
• SABRE – Simple Anti Bot Registration Engine
• Sociable – Automatically add links on your posts, pages and RSS feed to your favorite social bookmarking sites
• Subscribe to Comments – Allows readers to receive notifications of new comments that are posted

I would strongly recommend these plugins for starters, there are many useful plugins for specific niches, however, these six plugins along with Akismet are basically essential tools for wordpress fans. I happily use it for all my wordpress sites too.

So, if you haven’t tried all of the above plug-ins, now it’s time you get to use the opportunity because I will not write a single post that is not useful for my readers. Thanks for reading.

Yesterday, Google updated PageRank again. I was expected to see end of June for new updates, however, it was only two months from last update and now it has updated again.

I am not really a big fan of Google PR, but It is always good to get my PR raised again by +1 in most of my sites and pages. It’s fantastic for me, because I know all my link building, SEO/SEM and hard work have paid off.

So, how about your site(s)? Any improvements?
