Microsoft has created some pretty neat web tools. Although I haven’t tried all of them yet, the ones I tired have my seal of approval.
1. Windows Live Writer. If you are into blogging, Windows has just created the Windows Live Writer application where you can write your blogs offline, then send them to the web. Windows Live Writer provides ease-of-use. Some blogsites aren’t user friendly, but with Windows Live Writer, you don’t always need to compose your blogs on the blogsite itself. You can write & edit the blog, add links, add & layout photos offline then save them on your computer and publish them when you’re ready. I like Windows Live Writer because it’s not exclusive to Windows Spaces (which is Windows’s version of Blogger or Wordpress). You can add your blogger and wordpress accounts and publish your work to these sites via Windows Live Writer. Now, I can update all my blogs in one software, and reach more people in the net.
2. Windows Messenger. There’s an upgraded version of Windows Messenger and I’m gradually shifting to Windows Live Messenger. The reason? I don’t get the same connection problems with Windows Messenger. I don’t experience lags or sudden disconnections. And there are other great features like you can draw, record sounds and send them to your chatmates. It includes the usual features such as pc-to-pc calls, emoticons, photosharing and more. You can also chat with friends that have Yahoo! accounts, just add them to your WM, and you can chat straight away (except some features like certain emoticons may not be available).
3. Windows SkyDrive. This is your online external hard drive which you can access anywhere as long as you have internet access. You can store your documents including photos and videos on the web. You can choose to make the files private or accessible by your network of friends. I haven’t tried all the Skydrive features yet, but it’s very convenient especially if you don’t have a usb flash in handy, or you need a bigger storage space for your files. You can also add your favorite links which you can access from a public computer.
4. Windows Live Mail. Windows Live Mail is an alternative to your MS Outlook which is free. Instead of going to the internet to access your emails, you can access your hotmail or msn emails from your desktop. Again, ease-of-use.
5. Picasa 3 . So much for talking about Windows new tools. Google has some pretty cool stuff , too. If you havent downloaded the upgraded version of Picasa, I suggest you do. Picasa 3 is now available and it has additional features like photo retouching and adding texts. It has new templates for your collages and lots more. Picasa 3 now comes with a photo viewer. View your images right from your desktop, without going inside Picasa. You need to configure this during the installation.
6. Picasa Web Albums. Upload your photos in the web using Picasa Web Albums to share to your network. You can easily do this using the web photo upload function from Picasa itself. You can also create a slideshow and embed the url link to your blogger account.

Link posts

The name itself gives you a appealing acceptable abstraction of the attributes of this affectionate of post. What you do with a hotlink column – or speedlinking, as some like to alarm it – is to accumulate a agglomeration of online writing or blog posts which are accompanying to your niche. You again account these links in your post. As you can see, it is simpler than account blogging. I alone do not like application this affectionate of column a lot, though, as I anticipate that the blogger should column added focused content, which is not absolutely accomplished by alone announcement links.

Photo or video posts

This affectionate of post, I absolutely like. Admitting I advance authoritative the a lot of out of visuals by consistently including them in your posts, you can aswell use photos or videos as your capital focus for a post. This is abundant if you run beyond a awful accordant photo or video. You can again put that in your column and again address your thoughts about it. You can address beneath words but still absorb the appulse of the column due to the clear element.

Start by reading the DMOZ guidelines. Don’t do like me and submit a dozen sites without really paying close attention to the guidelines. I didn’t take the submission process seriously enough since I couldn’t see any clear gain in the near future.

I suggest that you research the Open Directory Project (DMOZ) and have everything written before starting the online process. Then, choose a category (see below) from the directory and click “Suggest URL”.

Let’s look at some of the most important entries.

Title

According to the guidelines, the “title should identify the site, not describe it”. The title should be informative and concise. If the site belongs to a business then the official name of the business should be used as the title. See the guidelines for more specific Here are some examples of titles from the website.

• not all caps
• the first letter of each word should be in capital, except for articles, prepositions and conjunctions
• do not use the URL as the title
• no punctuation marks or unnecessary symbols.

Description

The description should give specific information about the content and/or subject matter of the site. The description should be written for the benefit of the directory user, to give them an idea of what they will find on the website. The description:

• should be informative
• should be concise
• should not try to sell the site
• should not be stuffed with keywords
• should not repeat the title of the site
• should not use superlatives like “best” or “cheapest”
• Information that could change, such as prices, should not be included.

Category

Choose your category carefully. Find the appropriate category and drill down to the appropriate sub-category. Once there, take a look at some of the existing listings to ensure that your site fits. Submitting to the wrong category can delay your application. If your site has a regional flavor then make sure you submit it to a regional category as well. Regional submissions often make it into the directory quicker.

note : When faced with hundreds of submissions, editors tend to pick out submissions that they can process quickly. They often will add submissions that are obviously well written and follow the guidelines. If your title, description, grammar and category are wrong your application has a better chance of being put aside. Don’t worry, someone will look at it, eventually.

If you hope to get a load of returning visitors, you have to have content that poeple like and tell their friends about, and keep updating it with new things that make people want to keep going to it, and it’s gotta look good.
The better looking, the more people want to be affiliated with it. Also, make friends, and share links. Join web rings, give the links to your friends who are interested, and an interactive element like a message board, or such, will (if handled correctly) keep people coming back.
try this trick :

1. Link to other pages, and have them link to you.
2 Use relevant META tags for keywords and description
3. Submit the site to: = Cool Site of the Day = http://www.coolsiteoftheday.com
……………. Add your URL to google = http://www.google.com/addurl.html + http://www.burgettsys.com/stories/60948
4. Announce your website in many online forums.
5. Register your url with google and as many other search engines as possible.
6. Update your site often to have repeat visistors.
7. Add your url in your email signature.
8. Do a search on google, then at the bottom of the page is “Disatisfied with results? Help us improve” link. Just fill out the info. and the spiders will go to your site.
9. Add your url to your business card and pass them out.

10. Put a link in your signatues so that every email/post you make will be seen by search engine bots and taken into account. Be sure that it’s properly labeled “+18 Warning” if the link goes to adult material.
