Have you ever spent tons of time searching through your WordPress Page admin trying to find the page you wish to edit ? Once you ahve more then ten WordPress pages listed on the WordPress Pages edit page, finding the one you are looking for can be time consuming. Even frustrating.
There is a solution to help you manage your WordPress pages in the admin panel. Geeky Weekly My Page Order is a WordPress Page management plugin that helps you manage the order of your pages, this makes finding the pages needing constant update a snap. It also allows you to group your wordpress pages within the WP Page edit screen. How does it work ? It inserts a DRAG AND drop FEATURE in your Wordpress Edit Page screen!
My pages were a random mess of pages including drafts here and there.
The drag and drop feature allowed me to lsit them in a more organized order. Our main pages (update often such as FAQ’s), All the pages by member type, Followed by the admin pages (like login & registration), followed by drafts, pending pages.
A quick save and back to the edit pages screen and now I can find what I am looking for. This is a great plugin to manage, group, and organize your WordPress page order in the edit page screen.
Now here’s even better news! Geeky Weekly has more of thes wordpress plugins to manage more areas of your Wordpress admin panels!
- WordPress Plug in – My Link Order – Organized and manage the order of your WP links
- WordPress Plug in – My Category Order – Organized and manage the order of your WP categories
- WordPress Plug in – My Page Order – Organized and manage the order of your WP pages
You can install these from your Add new upload plugin screen in your WP Dashboard. More details can be found at Geekly Weekly.
Please note that this will not work with Admin Management Xtended which has it own drag and drop page ordering. I haven’t checked to see if the Link and categories plugins conflict with Admin Management Xtended.
I give this Wordpress plugin -> My Page Order 4/4 stars !
I received a note from the CEO of Postling (David Lifson) this morning via Linked In, inviting me to check out Postling as a means to manage my multiple Social Media accounts. At a quick glance Postling appears to be similar to Ping FM. The concept of Postling was born in June 2009 and the service is relatively new.
P{ostling is incredibly user friendly. The service is designed for those of us who may not be techy geeks but need a way to save the time of having to log onto five or more social media sites each day. The dashboard is clean and easy to navigate.
Postling allows you to;
- update your social media ’statuses’
- create a Blog Post
- upload an Image
- or share a link.
These are the four main actions of managing a Social Media account and for a small business owner really the only tools you need to jump into Social Media.
At this time Postling only allows you to link up the following Social Media accounts:
Facebook
Twitter
Blogs
Wordpress
Blogger
Tumblr
Typepad
Squarespace
Drupal
Photos
Flickr
I am hoping they will add bitly support and more of the social media networks I use on a regular basis. Especially Linked In (as it is an important network for small business owners), plurk, and indent.ca.

As promised, I am sharing my ad campaign results from the adgitize blog advertising test campaign I ran.
I ran a 125 button with a CLEAR call to action and an offer for bloggers.
I received 59781 ad impressions and 535 clicks. The CTR was bit low .0.0089 but over a cost per click of less then 2 cents per click which is great. I did receive some sign ups ( no payment required) though I didn’t track the number of signups.
So if you are looking to increase traffic to your blog with some paid advertising on a budget, I would say adgitize blog ads is a good option. I am not sure how affiliate offers would convert as they audience is rather broad.
Also, as the site becomes more popular you may find your impressions will be less.
Give Adgitize blog ads a try.
I could spend all day collecting icons online. If you are looking for coffee icons or breakfast icons you should check out Andrea’s work (specializing in the creation of icons). This free icon set includes: a muffin, toast, Italian coffee maker, coffee cup and saucer, and sugar bowl. Click here to download

I noticed this interesting ad network widget on a blog I was visiting today. The ad network needs to update their banners (oh they are ugly) but the concept of their blog ads is intriguing.
According to their website they have served over 52,000,000 blog ad impressions. They sell blog ads based on a monthly fee with no guarantee of a minimum number of blog ad impressions or clicks which makes it impossible to determine the value of their blog ads. Call me crazy but I decided to give them a try so I could report back to you my results. Their test suggests an average of 77 clicks a day with my blog ad.
