New Guide for Bloggers, WordPress for Dummies, Maintains Top-seller Spot on Amazon.com’s Blogging Guides List

5:38 am

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 30, 2008

Blogging exploded a few years ago and laid the foundation for what people now call Web 2.0. This new platform put the power of publishing and distribution into the hands of anyone with a computer and an Internet connection. Anyone, anywhere can set up a blog and publish rumors, stories, interviews, photos, tutorials, or personal notes.

Now, blogging has gone mainstream as corporations look to use the platform to grow relationships with customers, established blogs impact traditional media, and entrepreneurs seek fame and fortune. WordPress is the software that powers hundreds of thousands blogs including some of the most influential sites on the Internet, and WordPress for Dummies (Wiley Publishing, Inc.; November 2007; $ 24.99) is the guide that many new and experienced bloggers are turning to in order to get the most from their publishing platform.

Since its release in November 2007, the book has rocketed to the top spot on Amazon.com’s “Blogging Guides” bestseller list and continues to receive rave customer reviews.

Unlike other blogging platforms, WordPress gives users the ability to create a blog that is tailored to their own tastes and needs. The codes, tags, and terminology are often intimidating to users, especially less technical users. That may explain the explosive sales and adoption of WordPress for Dummies as it clearly explains the ins and outs to show bloggers just how intuitive, friendly, and powerful the software really is. Whether setting up a blog in the WordPress community, adding a blog to another site, or building a new community, this book demonstrates how WordPress can be the foundation.

Taragana Launches Comment Guard Pro – Comment Spam Protection Software for WordPress Blogs

4:18 am

Kolkata, India (PRWEB) March 5, 2008

Taragana Inc, a leading provider of Web 2.0 enabling software, today announced the launch of Comment Guard Pro, a third generation comment spam protection software for WordPress? blogs which uses an expert system to classify comments. Comment spam is the bane of interactive Web 2.0 media like blogs and wiki, often forcing administrators to shut down commenting altogether, being unable to cope with ever increasing spam volume. Comment Guard Pro leverages 22 tried and tested comment spam fighting techniques which is the result of several man-years of research into comment spam detection, both in-house and by the anti-spam community.

“Comment Guard Pro was born out of years of frustration fishing out dozens of false positives (legitimate comments which were marked as spam by anti-spam filters) from spam queue with several thousands of comments and deleting several dozens of false negatives (comment spam which passed through spam filters) on a daily basis”, said Angsuman Chakraborty, CEO Taragana. “We want to give back the joy of blogging without worrying about spams.”

Comment Guard Pro is designed to unobtrusively protect against all types of comment spams – trackback spam, pingback spam, robotic spam using comment form, human submitted spam and referrer spam. It provides multiple layers of protection against each type of comment spam. The focus was to eliminate false positives and minimize false negatives. Comment Guard Pro was 100% successful in eliminating all kind of robotic / automated spams in tests with several popular live blogs with over 5 million comments over a period of one year. False negative, where a spam is misidentified as genuine comment, are hardest to eliminate from non-automated spams (manual spam). Comment Guard Pro achieved an impressive rate of less than 0.1% false negatives in tests.

Comment spam, like email spam, is a moving target as spammers continuously adapt to anti-spamming techniques. Any effective solution also needs to be equally adaptive. Comment Guard Pro uses an expert system with pluggable rules (or pluglets). Each pluglet is extensively configurable. Users can extend it easily by writing their own pluglets. Comment Guard Pro provides a heavily documented Open API to develop pluglets which can be distributed for free or sold.

Free WordPress Template Highlights Companies’ Social Media Prowess

71272 wordpress themes2C wordpress plugins2C wordpress gI socialmediapressroomtheme.gif Free WordPress Template Highlights Companies Social Media Prowess
Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) May 13, 2008

With social media growing more prominent by the day, companies that are eager to show web-savvy credentials want to display their social networking strengths on their own websites. Now it is possible to house all a company’s social network accounts and newsworthy references on one web page. Fathom SEO has created a template for a free downloadable and customizable “social media newsroom” web page, designed for use as a theme in WordPress. The social media newsroom template is available for download at Fathom SEO’s website.

The traditional and now ubiquitous place to read biographical details about an organization is the “About Us” page of its website. The place to read a company’s news typically is a separate news page. Social media information, if present at all, is tucked away on a “contact” page.

Fathom SEO’s response is to put news and social media account information on the same page. This publicity page for the social media era combines the biographical elements of an “About Us” page with the timeliness of a news page to create an all-encompassing communication page. View Fathom SEO’s social media pressroom.

“Until now, most pressroom template releases have simply demonstrated what is capable in the ongoing evolution of today’s typical pressroom,” says Matt Thompson, a graphic design intern at Fathom SEO and primary developer of the new template. “Our theme shows not only what is capable, but also provides a complete package for developing your own. We do this by using WordPress, a free and widely used blogging and content management platform. The Fathom pressroom theme makes use of that program’s built-in functionality, and due to its minimalist design, it is also very user-friendly.”

The theme uses one plugin, which will be included in the package. The theme can be used with WordPress for custom creation of and updates to any organization’s pressroom. In addition to including installation instructions, the included documentation file mentions recommended additional plugins that will enhance the pressroom’s promotional capability and search-engine friendliness.

Fathom SEO’s social media pressroom theme can be used by any business or organization that wants to showcase its news, media presence, and social network visibility all on one page.

Dominic Litten, Senior Account Executive at Fathom SEO, says, “With the amount of information flying around the Internet, it’s crucial that marketers format their messages in every way their audiences digest it. At the same time, marketers need to consolidate information so journalists, customers, prospects or investors can find it.” Coming from a public relations background, he reassures that, “While it sounds conflicting, it’s exactly what we sought to achieve when we developed our social media newsroom theme.”

Fathom SEO’s media pressroom template is available for distribution under a Creative Commons license (“Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported”). The work may be copied, distributed, transmitted, and adapted with proper attribution and distribution under the same, similar, or a compatible license.

WishList Products Announces Latest Version of WishList Member User-Friendly Membership WordPress Plug In

7:58 pm

c344f wordpress themes2C wordpress plugins2C wordpress gI 0 0TracyChildersCoFounder WishList Products Announces Latest Version of WishList Member User Friendly Membership WordPress Plug In
Memphis, TN (Vocus) May 29, 2009

WishList Products’ (formerly WPWishlist) latest release of WishList Member (http://wishlistmember.com), the premier membership plug-in for WordPress is feature rich and extremely user friendly. With its easy to understand interface anyone can have a fully functioning membership site up and running with very little effort and no programming or html knowledge required. One of the reasons for its ease of use is that it was built from the ground up specifically for WordPress. And with its low entry cost of under $ 100 it makes it easily affordable for anyone.

WordPress has become one of the top content management system platforms for creating websites through a user friendly dashboard. There are a number of different membership systems available, of which most are very expensive, lacking in functions and complicated to use. WishList Products has overcome all these challenges plaguing other developers and end users by creating WishListMember specifically as a WordPress Membership plug-in.

Stu McLaren, Co-Founder of WishList Products has this to say, “The idea for WishList Member actually came from hours upon hours of frustration trying to create a membership site of my own. All the solutions I tried always ended up being too complicated and it always created a major delay in getting the site launched. That’s when I finally threw my hands up and decided to build our own solution. The major objective for WishList Member was to design it so that people (like me) could get their membership sites up quickly. Now, one of the most exciting things for me to see is all the different ways our customers are using the product and how quickly they are getting their sites online.”

With functions available for everyone’s “wish list” it seems that WishList Member is taking the lead as the number one WordPress plug-in for membership site building.

Some of the new advanced features include:

Login Redirection
Multiple Membership Levels
Import & Export Members
Sequential Delivery
Integration with Popular systems like PayPal, ClickBank, 1ShoppingCart, AWeber Email, and many more.

Popular features include Total Content Protection, Unlimited Membership Levels and Easy Member Management. To see demo videos and screen shots, go to http://wishlistmember.com
