How to add favicon in blogger manually - Easy Tips

Adding Favicon in your blogger blog is so easy. First of all create a favicon and learn what is favicon. You know that favicon is a little icon that appears next to the web addresses, like the one you see above? When you visit the sites or bookmark them, these icons will make these URLs stand out. These are “Favicons” or “Favorite Icons”.

First of all make a icon with a software or you can use online favicon maker website to generator your icon free. Generate your favicon and then download in your PC on desktop. The only method to use will be to upload the icon into some web folder, and create a link. You can read about using free hosts like Google Page Creator and Google Groups. We have also a rather comprehensive list of free Image Hosts and File Hosting Services in our article on Manage Blogger Image Storage Space. Check out those sites and choose one that is fast, reliable and allows uploading of .ico files. But I always prefer Googele Picasaweb. So, if you are logged in you can visit this site: http://www.picasaweb.google.com/
Now, Here Upload your Favicon Icon. Click on the Icon and grab the url of the icon (To get Image URL right click and choose View Image. Now copy the url.)

Once you have done that, take note of the URL of your icon. If you are using Google Page Creator, hovering your mouse over the link, you will see that the file is stored under a directory which looks like this http://yourname.googlepages.com/iconname.ico
where “yourname” is your Gmail account name, and “iconname” is the file name. Copy this URL.

Go back to your Blogger dashboard and under the Template tab, go to “Edit HTML”. Near the top you will see a line like this:-


<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

Update: Copy and insert the following code below the line:-


<link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/vnd.microsoft.icon'/>

Inserting this will also work but the former is preferred:-


<link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/x-icon'/>

Remember to type in the “URL of your icon file”.

Save the template. When you refresh your blog site, you should see your nice little Favicon next to the blog address.


Other image types: The .ico image format has been used by many but you can also create an image under the .png or .gif format. Ensure that the size of the image is either 16x16 pixels or 32x32 pixels.

If you have a PNG format image, the link to insert is:-


<link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/png'/>

If it is a GIF format image, the link is:-


<link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/gif'/>

External Domain:  For those who have hosted sites in external domains, insert the link in the root directory as well. Otherwise, you can upload the file into the root directory and name it favicon.ico

As an example, if your domain name is www.domain.com, the URL of the favicon will be www.domain.com/favicon.ico

This method is not preferred but a number of browser versions are able to process the icon. Since we do not have external domains to try out this alternative, you may want to see if it works for you.

Compatibility: While you can see the Favicon in Mozilla Firefox, many have problems seeing the Favicon in Internet Explorer. This is a known problem and has been a sore point with many IE users. In some versions of IE, bookmarking the site will display the Favicon. This is not necessarily so in IE7 that we are using. In fact, when we bookmarked the highly popular search engine sites, their Favicons don't show in our IE bookmarks too although they show well in Firefox. Perhaps this is one more reason to download Mozilla Firefox if you have not already done so.

How To Add Search Box Manually in Blogger

The Google Navigation bar at the top of your Blogger blogs has an embedded search box. However, you may want to include a similar box in the main body of your blog (like what I have done), or the sidebar. Other than the convenience for users, the added advantage is that unlike Google search box, the search results of this Blogger.com search box appear in the main body of your Blog.

Under Template->Page Elements tab, click “Add a Page Element” at the place where you want your search box to appear. Select “HTML/JavaScript”.

There are several HTML codes posted on the net. I tried a few, and found the one that works as follows:-

<p align="left">
<form id="searchthis" action="YOUR BLOG URL/search" style="display:inline;" method="get">
<strong>NAME OF YOUR BLOG<br/></strong>
<input id="b-query" maxlength="255" name="q" size="20" type="text"/>
<input id="b-searchbtn" value="Search" type="submit"/>
</form></p>

Remember to change YOUR BLOG URL to the URL or web address of your Blog. Also, change the NAME OF YOUR BLOG to that which you want to call your site. For instance, if your Blog Name is long, you may want to write something like “Search Here” or “Search this site”.

You can also change the “Search” button to say, “Hit” or “Go”, by changing the Value.

Save the code and refresh your page. If you want a longer or shorter search box, you can play around with the size. The above example of a width size="20" and value="Hit" will give you this:-


Search Here


Whereas a width size="30" and value="Go" will give you this:-

Search Here


The size of the search box is a matter of appearance. You may have noticed that the maxlength="255". This indicates that a user may enter up to 255 characters in the search box, which I think is sufficient and need not be altered.

Image instead of Search button

Search Tips for New Bloggers


Just for the fun of it, if you want readers to click an image instead of a button, you will first need to do up a small picture. You can also resize a picture you already have with photo editing tools like Google's Picasa. After creating a picture, upload it onto a free server like GooglePages or Google Groups, or other free hosts that offer direct links to the image files. Take note of this IMAGE URL.

The HTML code to insert is this:-

<p align="left">
<form id="searchthis" action="YOUR BLOG URL/search" style="display:inline;" method="get">
<strong>NAME OF YOUR BLOG<br/></strong>
<input id="b-query" maxlength="255" name="q" size="20" type="text"/>
<input id="b-searchbtn" type="image" src="IMAGE URL" align="top"/>
</form></p>

Remember to insert into the code the IMAGE URL, where your picture is uploaded. You can align the image to the top, bottom or set a horizontal space between the bar and the image by using a hspace tag. For more examples on alignment of images, you may refer to the article Hyperlinks and Image Links (II).

While it is alright to replace the button of your Blogger search box, you may not want to do that with the Google search box since their T.O.S. disallows any alteration of their code.

Best social bookmarking sites for blogger

Social Bookmarking sites are special sites where anyone can create an account and upload their bookmarks to it. You can make these bookmarks accessible to others by making them public or keep them private. The links within these bookmarks are classified by tagging them with keywords which signify their overall nature. Thus you can tag all your friends blogs under blogs and all the technology links under technology. Some sites periodically verify that bookmarks still work. Notifying users when a URL no longer functions. Visitors to social bookmarking sites can search for resources by keyword, person, or popularity and see the public bookmarks, tags, and classification schemes that registered users have created and saved.


Social bookmarking dates back just a couple of years, when sites like Furl, Simpy, and del.icio.us began operating. Social bookmarking is particularly useful when collecting a set of resources that are to be shared with others. Anyone can participate in social bookmarking.



del.icio.us


The best known currently of all such tools is del.icio.us. There are some 70k users at the time of writing. This is very much a personal, out-of-hours effort by Joshua Schachter. Developed initially as a simple web page listing links with annotations, Schachter then decided to make these available on a web server so that friends and others could also make use of these bookmarks.
In all the codes given below change the character '&' to '&a m p;' typed without spaces.
To add the code for del.icio.us to your blog posts Login to Dashboard and go to Layouts. Then click on Edit Html subtab of Template tab and first backup your template to PC. Then put a check in Expand Widgets Template box at top of Edit Teplate text box and scroll down to the blog posts widget footer to this line :

<p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'/>

Paste the following code below the above line :

<a expr:href='"http://del.icio.us/post?url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title'> <img alt='Del.icio.us' src='URL OF DELICIOUS GIF'/></a>

Save the image above to your PC and then upload it to a freehost like Googlepages and then paste its link instead of 'URL OF DELICIOUS GIF' in above code. Save Template.


Furl


Furl (for 'File URL'), first programmed in '03 by Mike Giles, had its official public launch in January '04. It has now attracted several hundred thousand users. A distinctive feature of Furl is that it saves web pages as well as links with each member being allocated some 5 GB of storage. Furl was created in response to the author's personal need for full text searching in order to find information he had previously read. Many Furl users have built up extensive libraries, and full text searching is seen by many as the most important way to recall this information. Tagging is considered a secondary activity. An interesting problem with hosting local copies of bookmarked pages is the potential for copyright infringement, if, for example, pages that require subscription access to view are being saved in their entirety on a third-party service. Furl has bypassed this problem by limiting access to the hosted copy to the original user who bookmarked it, and hence presumably has legitimate access to the content. Other users are simply directed to the original URL.

To add the Furl Bookmark to your posts add the following code at the same position as the del.icio.us code above. Also save the Furl image above and upload it to a freehost so as to add its link in the code below :

<a expr:href='"http://www.furl.net/storeIt.jsp?u=" + data:post.url + "&t=" + data:post.title'><img alt='Furl' src='URL OF FURL GIF'/></a>

Save Template.


Simpy


Simpy was authored by Otis Gospodnetić. Released in May '04, Simpy now has several thousands of active users, and several hundreds of thousands of links. The service was created for the sole purpose of organizing links: the social aspect grew out of that. Simpy allows users to track other users' bookmarks by creating 'topics'. Any number of users or specific searches can be saved to a topic, and these results will be checked for new bookmarks. These topics can then be made available as RSS feeds. The latest version of Simpy allows users to create lists of notes, which can be tagged in the same way as bookmarks.

To add the Simpy code download the Simpy image above and upload it to a freehost and put its link in the below code :
<a expr:href='"http://www.simpy.com/simpy/LinkAdd.do?href=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title'><img alt='Simpy' src='URL OF SIMPY GIF'/></a>

Add this code in the same place as the Furl and Del.ici.ous codes. Save Template.


Spurl


Spurl.net (after 'SPecial URL') was authored by Hjalmar Gislason, and it is another example of an on-line bookmarking service and search engine. It currently has several thousands of active users.

Spurl.net, similarly to Furl, allows hosting of local copies of pages that have been bookmarked, the full text of which can then be searched. Spurl.net allows users to define their bookmarks as public (the default) or private, the latter being the most commonly selected setting. Spurl.net supports both multi-level categories, as well as user-assigned tags, and runs a special search engine Zniff that uses human information for ranking and indexing. To add the spurl code follow the same procedure as in the above cases. The code is given below :

<a expr:href='"http://www.spurl.net/spurl.php?url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title'><img alt='Spurl' src='URL OF SPURL GIF'/></a>

Save Template. If you have any problem you can ask me via comment on this blog.

Go to Blogger Dashboard > Layout > Edit HTML. Always Download Full Template for Backup. Do NOT click on Expand Widget Templates. Now look for

]]></b:skin>
Now add following code ABOVE it.

.showpageNum a {
padding: 3px 8px;
margin:0 4px;
text-decoration: none;
border:1px solid #999;
-webkit-border-radius:3px;-moz-border-radius:3px;
background: #ddd;
}
.showpageOf {
margin:0 8px 0 0;
}
.showpageNum a:hover {
border:1px solid #888;
background: #ccc;
}
.showpagePoint {
color:#fff;
text-shadow:0 1px 2px #333;
padding: 3px 8px;
margin: 2px;
font-weight: 700;

&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script src='http://scriptabufarhan.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pagenaviv202-min.js' type='text/javascript'&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

Here you can change Prev and Next Text.

var postperpage=7;
var numshowpage=4;

Postperpage : How many Posts you want to show on one Page of blog.
Numshowpage : how Many number will show in Your page Navigation

e.g. If you want to show 5 posts per page then change var postperpage=7; to var postperpage=5;

Save your Template.

STEP 3 - Label Fix (Customization)

'data:label.url'

First of all, I would like to teach you about Meta Tags what are we going to our blogger Blog. If you are totally new and ignore about meta tags read the passage below about Meta Tags.

What are Meta Tags?
Meta tags are HTML tags that provide additional information about your blog that is unseen by visitors but available to search engines. The meta description tag, for example, provides a short summary of the page content. The keyword meta tags show the keywords and keyword phrases a visitor might use to find your blog. Because of abuse of meta tags search engines have become smarter and most no longer place emphasis on keywords to establish page ranking however keyword meta tags are still used by some search engines so it is a good idea to include them.

Know about Limitations of Blogger and SEO
Blogger is not properly Optimized Seo friendly. Meta descriptions and keywords are not supported by blogger.com by default. Title tags are also not optimized. But where is will there is a way. The webmaster has made a way to use Meta Tags to Blogger blogs. But a disgusting matter is you will have to add all the Meta Tags all alone and manually.

Follow the following steps to add Meta Tags To your blog correctly.

Step:1 Login to Blogger account.
Step:2 Navigate to Design > Edit HTML
Step:3 Click on Download Full Template for your security purpose.

name='keywords'/>
</b:if>

Step:7 Enter your blog description between the single quote marks under description. Maximum 150 characters

Step:8 Enter the keywords of your blog between the single quote marks under keywords. But Keywords are not so important now-a-days. Because most of the popular search engine has cancelled keywords as a part of SEO. Like: Google, Yahoo, Bing blah blah blah.

After adding the codes your Meta tags look like this below (it is an example):

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
<meta content='Find tips,tricks,tutorials,walkthroughs to customize your Blogger Blogspot blog.SEO,Banners,Adsense,gadgets,fixes,feeds,rss,help for beginner bloggers' name='description'/>
