Google Panda is Change in Google’s search result ranking Algorithm. The main Aim of this change is to higher the rank of “Good quality content sites” and to lower the rank of “low quality content sites” in Search Result page. Recover from Google Panda effect

Google Panda was first released in February 2011 since then it has received many Updates. Many webmasters are still in trouble due to Google Panda. Google Panda is most common and site wide penalty which affects the domain name i.e. entire website gets affected. In this post we will discuss many important things related to Google Panda which includes the recovery method also. Many Good websites which were ranking high in Search Engine result page in the past lost their search engine ranking after the update. We can never ignore or avoid the guidelines that are given by Google if we want to do well in Search result. I always respected Google not because It is major search engine, because it has always given the priority to Content which is most important thing.

What Kind of Websites get affected Due to Panda algorithm change ?

The websites which are making use of Black hat SEO techniques will get penalized. Google panda separates the low quality site and high quality site so if your ranking has decreased make sure that your content is relevant and informative.

The websites with too much advertising, poor navigation, Bad-links, bad user experience, Duplicate contents, slow loading speed, etc. may face the problem due to Panda’s algorithm change . After the release of Google Panda high quality Content became the first priority and with this the importance of On page SEO, Off page SEO, Social media presence, etc. also increases.

This update has simple objectives which are :

Penalizing those sites which are making use of Black hat techniques.

Ranking high quality sites first than low quality sites in Search Result page.

Good content is always a winner.

Well optimized Sites are likely to perform well in Search Engine result page i.e. The value of SEO has increased.

Before assuming that you are affected by Google Panda make sure whether your site is visible to Google or not ? Submit your site to Google and also submit sitemap if you are a beginner and wait until your site is indexed completely.

Frankly speaking Recovering from Google Panda effect is very easy. So lets see how you can Recover from Google Panda effect :

#4. SEO friendly themes :

I use WordPress and of-course SEO friendly theme. SEO friendly theme has lots of advantage and if you are just starting with the WordPress go for free themes and if you think you want a good theme and you have money then go for Premium themes. I have always used Free themes as I don’t have lots of Money.

#5. External Links :

Link to a Good website and stop selling paid links. Never link unnecessarily because it can affect your site’s ranking in Search Engine. I always link to a good reputed website which has relevant content and better Search Ranking. There is no such thing that link to 1 or 2 times not more than that but do not link unnecessarily it may down your reputation in Search Engine’s Eyes.

These are the 5 best ways to recover from Google Panda effect. There may be many more ways but I think SEO covers rest of the ways because Avoiding Keyword stuffing, Using H1,H2,H3, etc. comes under the On page SEO. I mean to say learn SEO because if you know the SEO no such updates will be headache for you.

Quick Points :

Avoid Duplicate contents.

An author bio box contains the little information about the author in the box which is mostly located below the blog posts. It includes few words about the author, his social media profiles, his websites and other necessary links. Author box creates a trust for the readers. Although, author box has really became important for the content marketing point of view. It is also very important for the credibility and security among the users.

Adding the author box is important when you’re running a multi-author website. For that you have to add an author box below the posts of the respective authors.

STEP 1

There is a code given just below this paragraph. This code is revealed from the Hueman theme which I’m using for my website 3nions. You can add this code to your website too and use it. Just copy the code given below and paste it in your single.php file (php file of your single post). Do remember to paste this code just below your <content section>. My tag section is in the end, hence I added it below my tags section.

<?php if ( ( ot_get_option( 'author-bio' ) != 'off' ) && get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ): ?> <div class="author-bio"> <div class="bio-avatar"><?php echo get_avatar(get_the_author_meta('user_email'),'128'); ?></div> <p class="bio-name"><?php the_author_meta('display_name'); ?></p> <p class="bio-desc"><?php the_author_meta('description'); ?></p> <div class="clear"></div> </div>

5 Best WordPress Pagination plugins for better navigation

New Post has been published on http://www.3nions.com/wordpress-pagination-plugins/

5 Best WordPress Pagination plugins for better navigation

WordPress Pagination plugins

In my last posts I’d discussed with you, How to add pagination to your WordPress theme. This is the sub-post of that article. In this post I have shortlisted some responsive pagination plugins for WordPress.

Simply, A pagination in a WordPress is the navigation between the two or mare pages on WordPress. As I’ve already postulated to my readers that the plugins are the primary solution for any WordPress issue. WordPress Plugins has been proved to be the best. But too much plugins may affect your website speed or slow down its loading time. Your website can run smoothly with 10-15 WordPress plugins. More than 15 is not good. If you’ve read my last post, I’ve told you that, in WordPress there is an inbuilt function of pagination. But the problem is that, It only shows the text values for ‘older posts’ and ‘newer posts’. And I hope that this is not the thing you’re searching for. The modern web design should not pretend to be as simple as this. Pagination will look very old fashioned when you use this. So the better option is to use plugins.

There are many pagination plugins are available, some of which are responsive and made on Bootstrap 3. If you’ve already installed many plugins on your website then please check this post: How to create pagination without plugin.

Paginator

This is a numeric page navigation plugin which lets the user to properly control the pagination on their WordPress website. The plugin is css based and very unique styled. You can easily manage it on its settings page.

WP-Paginate

The plugin is responsive and SEO friendly. I runs smoothly on all the devices. WP-Paginate is a simple and flexible pagination plugin which provides users with better navigation on your WordPress site. The plugin is 5 years old and has more than 60,000+ active installs. The plugin is compatible with all the versions of WordPress. This is an awesome plugin with lots of styling options.

WP-Smart Pagination

This is a very unique pagination plugin from all of these. It includes a simple response form with the pagination links, which helps to navigate to any page by just entering the page number in it. You can also style this plugin according to your theme using the .css and .less files provided in this plugin.

Ajax Pagination

If you’d noticed that, in the Facebook there are no page numbers at the end of the page. As you scroll down more posts comes up. This feature is called as an Ajax. Similarly, This plugin will add an Ajax pagination to your WordPress website just like Facebook or Twitter. There are 3 paging types to choose from; infinite scroll that automatically loads new posts as the user reaches the bottom of the screen, a load more button that when clicked loads new posts and pagination that displays normal pagination but loads the next page with Ajax. When using pagination the browser back and forward button still operate as expected. All 3 options deliver a great user experience.

Alphabetic Pagination

As the name has a word ‘alphabetic’ there must be something related to the alphabetical letters. This plugin filters all your post alphabetically. Suppose you have this plugin installed on your WordPress website, Then the 1st page will contain all the post starting with letter ‘A’, 2nd page with ‘B’, 3rd page with ‘c’, and so on. This plugin will be great if you are running a music website or an eCommerce website.

These are the five best WordPress pagination plugins for successfully enabling the different types of page navigation in WordPress. You can install anyone of them according to your needs.

Marathon Preparation tips

Image Source : jackjillmarathon.com

Marathon is a sport in which the athletes run for 42 km which is a full marathon or 21 km which is a half marathon. But it is a sport for only some population who train like a marathon athlete and who compete of the top 3 positions. Whereas for others it can be a matter of enjoyment and fetching a good experience. Like marathon there is ultra marathon, triathlon and various such run. But as a beginner there are some pointers you need to keep in mind which will help you to improve performance.

Training

The top athletes who run in marathon are born to run for marathon. One reason is that their basic metabolic rate is high ie they burn calories at a faster rate. If you are a beginner and want to compete in marathon you will have to first practice and create for you a training program. Basically you can start by running few miles and challenging the time i.e complete in a minimum time and as and as you improve you can initially break your own records. Start with small distance running and then slowly and gradually increase your distance. You will only improve when you are regularly practicing it. You can also do some endurance work during your training in order to boost performance.

Importance of weight training in long distance run :

image source : www.bellinghamdistanceproject.com

As a beginner you are new to such training. Running is a cardiovascular activity which involes the movement of joints especially the knee and ankle. If you are not having good bone density, you will end up injuring your self and even if you have a good bone density you should continue improving it as will help you be stronger not only for marathon but for any other sport. The reason for the injury is that running is a weight bearing activity hence there is continuous impact on your joints and spine and this is the reason which can fail you achieve your goals.

Nutrition

During your training nutrition should be your first priority as it is a fuel for you which will help you to improve your performance. People often ask me what should I eat before a run. My answer to them is that don’t go for heavy dosages eat which is comfortable for your body to digest it 1 or 2 hr prior to your run. But this dosent apply to all because each body is different some people may end up eating nothing before the run because the feel comfortable with it which is also ok. Basically it depends on person to person. But other than what should you eat before your run you have to focus on what you are eating throughout the day. Your diet should be a proper division of macronutrients(carbohydrates,protein,fats) and also micronutrients(vitamins,minerals,etc)

Over training

You will not be able to excel if you are not giving your body appropriate rest. It is because you body needs time to recover. The signs of overtraining can be :no improvement in performance, fatigue,body ache,joint pain,etc. Hence it is important for you to understand the importance of rest because your body is not a miachine.

So here it was a short glance on how to prepare for marathon for beginners. Let me know which topics you want to discuss in my next blog.
