Google Page Rank fix for SEOQuake Plugin

10. October 2011 in Google, Tutorials | 3 Comments

Normally I’m using Search Status Firefox plugin to check the page rank, alexa, and compete of websites, unfortunately the page rank info from Search Status doesn’t work in the pass few days, it showed page rank UNRANKED for all the websites. Initially I was thinking that there is something wrong on google page rank until I installed Google Page Rank Toolbar in Internet Explorer, then the page ranks are showed, that’s mean nothing goes wrong with the google page rank. So, Google page rank is working fine, it seems Google has moved the tool bar query URL recently.

After that I tried to search some info from search engine, there was a fix on some plugins to check page rank. For example, those people who are using SEOQuake to check google page rank, you can following the below steps to fix the problem.

1. Go to SEOQuake Preferences
2. Select PageRank then Edit
3. Paste THIS instead of what is already there!

[NAME]=Google pagerank
[TITLE]=PR
[URL_R]=http://toolbarqueries.google.com/tbr?client=navclient-auto&ch={gchecksum}&features=Rank&q=info:{url|encode}
[REGEXP]=Rank_.*?:.*?:(\d+)

4. Clear Firefox cache and restart firefox, done!

Sadly to know that my favorite firefox plugin Search Status was unable to fix because I can’t find any solution to solve the problem. I believe that we have to wait until the next update of Search Status to fix the google page rank showing problem. Anyway, you still can use Google Page Rank toolbar to check the google page rank, please don’t worry!

I know many of you like to use your Facebook on public access areas like cafe, library and etc, because enabling secure browsing for an account ensures that data cannot be monitored by other users of the network or the ISP. This feature is not enables by default, but you can change it in your Facebook setting easily.

Just go to Account Setting > Security > Secure Browing, tick the checkbox “Choose Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) whenever possible” and then save it.

Next time when you login to your Facebook, you will see https url instead of http url on the browser location bar. Anyway, perhaps you will ask, why doesn’t Facebook enable Secure browsing by default for all users? Hmmm…there are 2 reasons as below:-
1. Page loading speed is much slower over a secure connection.
2. Some Facebook apps will not support secure https connections.

Using .htaccess File to Reduce Spam on Your WordPress Blog

8. September 2011 in Wordpress | 2 Comments

I believe that all of us hate spam on your WordPress blog, and we know that Akismet is the best pre-install WordPress plugin that can help us to reduce spam on our WordPress blog, but do you know that .htaccess file also can help us to reduce spam on our WordPress blog?

Go to your root of your WordPress directory, then you should found .htaccess file. What you gonna to do for the next step? Yes, download your .htaccess file and make another copy for backup (you will be able to restore it if something went wrong), and then copy and paste the following code to .htaccess file, upload this .htaccess file to replace the existing ones.

Don’t forget to replace yourdomainname on line 5 by your real domain name.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .wp-comments-post\.php*
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !.*yourdomainname.* [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$
RewriteRule (.*) ^http://%{REMOTE_ADDR}/$ [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Once this code is added, the spam bots will not be able to access your wp-comments-post.php file directly, and this will significantly reduce the spam amount.

Thanks to AllGuru for the great tips!

How to Fix Internal Server Error 500 for WordPress

25. August 2011 in Tutorials, Web Hosting, Wordpress | 1 Comment

Last week, when I entered to all of my WordPress blogs which hosted in same web hosting account, I found that all of my blogs have encountered Internal Server Error 500. I felt panic and don’t have any idea how to solve the problem, then I tried to search some info from Google to see whether I can get help or not.

There are several solutions that other bloggers have provided and guild us how to solve the problem of Internal Server Error, unfortunately none of them can really help me. Most of the posts saying that most probably is due to the corrupted of .htaccess file. They asked to backup the current .htaccess and then create and blank .htaccess file and upload again. Hmmm.. this method can’t work for me!

I guessed there must be something happen on my hosting, if not why all of my blogs having the same error since I didn’t change wordpress themes, upload new plugins, update posts and etc. When the time I login to my cPanel page, I get shocked to see the Cpanel CPU and Memory Usage is full. Yes, this is the problem caused all my blogs cannot be displayed due to the memory allocation to the files.

After that, I tried to contact my hosting technical support, they replied that it may be is due to huge of plugins used on my blogs, and asked me to take down those unusable plugins. What the hell?! I don’t have many plugins on my blogs, all the while my blogs are working fine for many years, of course I can’t accept this reason. Beside that, my technical support also suggest me go to change VPN server to support all my current blogs. I really want to fuck him because I only have few blogs without using high bandwidth, why I need VPN server? Really stupid technical support!!!

I know Internal Sever Error is most likely caused by low memory limit on my server this time, but I have nothing to do how to lower down the memory usage, then I just wait until second day. When the time I wake up from my bed, all my blogs were working fine, the cPanel CPU and memory usage is back to normal. Thanks god!

Anyway, if you found Internal Server Error 500 on your WordPress blog, I advise you to check the CPU and memory usage on your cPanel account first, if the CPU and memory usage is working fine, the most probably you can try to check your .htaccess file or plugins usage on your blog.
