Most bloggers display a list of related posts below their posts.
Wouldn’t it be nice to display an eye catching list of recent posts with thumbnails to illustrate?

Before activating one of these themes, you must test it through at [...]

I’m working on a fluid width WordPress theme for the first time. As you all must know, fluid width is cool because it fits all screen resolutions.
With monitor screens every time bigger, it really makes no sense to waste screen real estate. But, and there’s always a but, the problem is that some people still [...]

Quem tem um blog exibindo anúncios sabe que quem clica neles são os visitantes vindos dos sites de busca, os famosos “paraquedistas”.
O problema é que anúncios do Adsense levam em conta o número de exibições x número de cliques para calcular o ctr (porcentagem de cliques por número de exibições) e o ecpm (ganhos totais [...]

O plugin No Adverts for Friends permite que se exibam anúncios do Adsense apenas para visitantes oriundos dos sites de busca, que em 99% dos casos são os únicos que clicam nesse tipo de publicidade.
