Tidy-up your CSS file with Clean CSS

I coded all my themes and CSS manually by using EditPlus 2, by hand. But when coded in text editor, your code might unstructureable and will slow down your site. That is why you need something that can optimize and tidy up your files.

Here has come a website called Clean CSS. Clean CSS is a nice utility that will tidy up your CSS file and will optimize it to make your site load faster. For an example, instead of

padding-top: 10px;
padding-right: 5px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
padding-left: 5px;

Clean CSS will tidy it into like this

padding: 10px 5px 10px 5px;

Beside that, Clean CSS will remove all unnecessary things and will pack your CSS file into smaller package.

<DIV ID="oDiv" STYLE="position:absolute; left:140px; height:400; width:400;
     filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
     src='image.png', sizingMethod='scale');" >

After I read his comment, I go check my pagerank. And the result is, almost datacenters display 5 for my pagerank. Duh… :( Maybe in one or two days later, they will finish update all the datacenters and my site will be stay on 5 until the next update.

Actually I already knew that I will get PR 5 two days ago from iWebtool prediction. It shows that my site will get PR 5. But although I got pagerank 5, it is not the end of this site, right? Lol… :d

No Updates will make your site loose in Visitors

Maybe some of you wonder why there are no updates in my website recently. This is because the internet connection in my room has been terminated and I need to renew it for this second semester. But the bad news is, the internet provider in my college not yet open their business for this semester. So I cannot renew it right now. I’m not sure when they will open back the internet. Hopefully as soon as possible so I don’t have to wait any more longer. And this post was make from my friend’s comp who is have internet connection.

This had happen to my site many times. When there are no updates, your site will loose in visitors. Via the reports from WordPress Reports plugin, I can see the decreasing of visits and pageviews when there is no update on my site. Keep updating your site regularly will attract more visitors to your website. But how? When you update your website, as in WordPress, it will automatically ping your new content to Pingomatic. And Pingomatic will ping it to various websites to notice them that your site had updated. From that, people will know about the new published content and will come to your site to read it.

Are you ready for the next PR update?

In DigitalPoint forum, their members are discussing about when will be the next Google Page Rank (PR) update? Some of them say that it will be this 7 January. Some of them say 15th Jan. Some say this, some say that. All of us doesn’t know exactly when will the next PR update is.

Last update, my site’s PR improves from PR 5 to PR 6. And based on the prediction from Iwebtool, for the next update, my site will still in PR 6. Hopefully the prediction will become true. Lol… :d

To increase PR is not that difficult but to maintain to where you already are, is where the challenging comes into place. You can get high PR easily but after you get the high PR, you need to maintain it. Of course you don’t want to loose the PR right? So that’s why you need to work hard even you already at the peak of a mountain. :)
