Tips, Tools and Tutorials for Making Money with Adult Blogs | Adult Blog Builder

WordPress 3.3.2 is available now and is a security update for all previous versions.

Three external libraries included in WordPress received security updates:

Plupload (version 1.5.4), which WordPress uses for uploading media.
SWFUpload, which WordPress previously used for uploading media, and may still be in use by plugins.
SWFObject, which WordPress previously used to embed Flash content, and may still be in use by plugins and themes.

If pingomatic is the only site listed under your ping site list you may want to add additional ping sites to your blog settings. There is a recent ping list published by MaxBlogPress‘ (Feb. 2012) blog that shows you what ping sites are currently active, which ping sites are a “must have” for your list, and also a list of recently de-activated sites so that you can edit older lists you may be using for your blogs. Personally, I’d just copy and paste over any old listings and save it… saves you a ton of time and effort to keep current with your listings.

There is also a step by step guide on how to add the ping list, which should take you all of 1 minute to complete.

Think of the websites you visit the most — chances are they are clean, professional, and easy to navigate. This is no coincidence: the human mind takes just a millisecond to make a definitive decision as to a site’s credibility, and this initial judgment is based entirely on aesthetics which means a good web design is critical for retaining visitors.

This month we consulted with Netfirms’s very own Director of Web and UI, he shared with us the best tips and tricks for designing the most visually appealing website:

1) Plan Your Site: Before turning on your computer, consider the layout, page structure and how users will move from one page to another (navigation). Then, sketch out your site on paper.

2) Understand Your Audience: Knowing your audience will help set the tone for your content and layout, as you identify what visitors will be looking for on your site. It’s also important to consider popular web browsers and your visitor’s screen resolution size so that they see your site the way you intended; you can find this data in most site analytics tools. If you’re not sure how wide to make your site, 960px is a great place to start.

3) Allow for Easy Navigation: Since people often read from left to right and top to bottom, the upper left-hand corner of your site is the first place your visitors will look. Place your navigation buttons here and keep them consistent, along with font and color choices, for easy reading and fluid movement from page to page.

4) Choose a Color Scheme: If you’re designing your site around an image, try uploading it to a color palette tool, like DeGraeve.com’s, for example, for complementary color suggestions. Be sure to remain consistent with your design patterns, and stick to no more than three font types and colors.

5) Use High Quality Photos: In order to give your site a more professional appearance, all images should be clear, focused, and of high resolution. An alternative to taking your own photos is buying them from Big Stock Photo; at about three-dollars an image it’s an inexpensive way to visually take your website to the next level. (Editor’s Note: You can get stock ADULT images for your blog headers at Big Stock Photo. Next to the huge search box at top of page is an All Files dropdown menu. At the bottom of that is Advanced Options. Click that and “unhide” mature content.)

6) Test Your Site, Then Test Again: When you’ve created or redesigned your site, ask friends and family to test it for you. They may find things you’ve missed, or point out areas of confusion.

When paired with quality content, executing these tips appropriately will help retain first-time visitors and transform them into yourdomain.com regulars.

Best wishes,

There’s a writer over on Cozy Frog that has been writing some amazing articles and tutorials for Adult Entertainment Webmasters for I don’t even know how many years, but they’re packed with good info and basic how-to wisdom that any webmaster can reap the benefits from by just giving them a read.

Her name is Titmowse, and below is just an excerpt from a not to long ago article that talks about old pages, and the benefits of just leaving them alone. The article goes hand in hand with some advice I received from one of my first Porn Industry bosses: “Learn from your mistakes and keep moving forward. Don’t waste my time, or yours, going backwards to “fix” stuff”. This of course meant don’t waste time rebuilding a freesite or perhaps a gallery, an AVS site, or a banner design. Just do it right the next time!

In that same vein of thought Titmowse reminds us that it is indeed appropriate to leave old pages where they lie … because inevitably, you’ll see passive revenue arrive on your doorstep in the form of a check in the mail from that sponsor. So just what is passive revenue? Titmowse explains:

Ultimately, most sponsor revenue is passive. When a surfer signs up under your affiliate ID, it’s not like you were physically in their house, closing the sale. Passive sales are the very nature of the affiliate/sponsor model. You create a mini free site and submit it to a top list. You build a gallery of video clips and get it listed on various MGPs. You post a blog entry that lives on via permalinks and a serendipitous use of keywords and subject matter. Weeks (or even months) later that old bit of marketing renders a return. You make sales when you aren’t actively trying. This is passive income. This is the magic promise of the Internet – making money while you sleep.

There’s also passive income to be made from recurring memberships or webmaster signup programs. Out of those ten or twenty signups you got from that awesome TGP listing last year, one or two members continue to pay for their accounts and you reap the benefits because you chose a recurring payout program from that particular sponsor. That barely-coded webmaster referral page you made and linked to at the bottom of some ancient free site is suddenly showing up in search engines and garnering you some green. You don’t question it. You probably have no idea why it’s happening, but it’s happening and you now realize the wisdom behind that adult webmaster saying: Build it and forget it.

If you aren’t creating a favorite icon for your website urls, you should! The icon is saved to the surfer’s bookmarks and it’s a fact that people do become familiar with a site’s “icon/name brand” and will often click on it over a site that they don’t remember.

A favicon (short for “favorites icon”) is an icon associated with a website or webpage intended to be used when you bookmark the web page. Web browsers use them in the URL bar, on tabs, and elsewhere to help identify a website visually.

A favicon is a graphic 16 x 16 pixels square and needs to be saved as favicon.ico and uploaded into the root directory of your server. You can use a favicon with any WordPress blog where you have ftp access to the root directory.

Easity create a favicon with a graphics program that will allow the saving of .ico graphic files, such as The GIMP. There are also online services that will allow you to create a favicon for free, such as  favicon.co.uk or Dynamic Drive, or HtmlKit.  Just follow the instructions provided by the site, save your creation and then download the image file  of the favicon.ico to your computer..

The image should be clear and is usually designed to match your blog image and/or content, a big task for something so small.

To prepare the image to be saved as favicon.ico:

1. By cropping or adding space around the image, make the image square.
2. Resize the image to 16 x 16 pixels.
3. Save the file as favicon.ico.

Installing a Favicon in WordPress

If there is already an old favicon.ico file in your current theme’s main folder, delete it using FTP Clients.

1. With an FTP Client, upload the new favicon.ico file into your current theme’s main folder.
2. Upload another copy of your favicon.ico file to the main directory of your site (ie. http://example.com/favicon.ico). This will display the favicon in your subscribers’ feedreaders.

To see your new favicon, clear your browser’s cache. You may need to restart your browser in order to see the new favicon.
