Hide certain categories from displaying on your homepage in Wordpress

October 27, 2008 by evl

>First of all you need to find this piece of code in your theme, either in home.php or index.php

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

Then you need to insert this piece of code directly below it

<?php if (in_category('235') && is_home()) continue; ?>

But you need to replace 235 with your category you want to exclude. You can find the category by going to manage-categories, then you need the ID of the category. Now that's how you exclude a category from the homepage in Wordpress.

How to make money selling domains on Ebay

September 10, 2008 by evl

There are thousands of great domains out there. Many of them are taken every day. But not all are taken. Domains sell pretty quick on ebay. Here are a few tips for selling them better. Describe your domain better. Describing your domain better, what's the alexa rating (even if it sucks), how old it is etc. Show people the possibilities. Showing people what you can do with the domain is probably more important than the next point. If they can see the potential of a domain you are trying to sell it will be easier for them to place a bid on it. If you show them they actually need the domain the chances are that they would want the domain. Create a need where there was not one before and they will be placing bids against each other. Dont put it in the wrong categories Dont advertise your domain in the wrong categories. Put it in the correct categories. People just get annoyed when they are looking for 2letter domains and they find your over keyworded domain with 2 letter written all over it when in fact its a 4 letter keyword. I get so annoyed when that happens to me. List it for as long as possible. The longer you list your domain the better the chances that someone will place a nice amount on it and the bigger the chances that it will grow and that way you can make more money. So here are a few basic tips for making more money on ebay selling domains. Please bookmark it or tell me what you think in the comments.

The beginnings of a new wordpress theme

September 8, 2008 by evl

I just started with a new theme. After contacting people and finding out that the lowest price for the them i want is about $1500 I decided to design a wordpress magazine style theme that looks like a news site's theme since that is the type I like. And where this site is headed is more in the category first type of blog than the posts on the front page blog. When its finished i might consider selling it. I might even start my wordpress site again, the one I had got some nice visits but was to lazy to upkeep it. I dont know how other people design themes but this is how i do it. Ugly hey?
