google search results showing wrong posts

I primarily write blogs on atg topics and some general topics which i think  will help others,one fine day i noticed few of my posts are not displaying correctly  in google search results,while given a search criteria i am seeing  different posts  of mine displaying in the search results whereas my actual post for that search  criteria is not shown,due to this some of our new visitors may leave the site .This is a painful situation and we are helpless since google has its  own algorithm for displaying and filtering search results,to correct this  we can do some research on what went wrong and modify accordingly which is a permanent solution but time consuming.But most of the time we will leave this to google trusting it will correct this automatically. Instead you can  try some of the options below,which is not only a workaround but will make your site highly navigational and user friendly The first thought is how quickly we can redire...

Blog increase space between two widgets

Image
I have modified blog template   from three column to four column by adding one more sidebar.So now i can add more information  and ads to my blog,but unfortunately there is no widget/gadget spacing in the sidebar i added recently and as a result the ads added in these widgets are displaying very close to each other,not in a user friendly manner, like the screen shot above. I have added a small modifications inside the widget code.its nothing but adding a 'br' tag inside your HTML widget as shown below.Only thing you need to take care is to add this line below your ad code or in a seperate widget altogether and place that widget in between any two widgets. This tag will add two line breaks between  the widgets. See the screen shot below. Also see Blog option to delete images displaying ads side by side Remove duplicate title in blog

issue in display ads side by side in blogs

Image
I hope you know how to place two ads side by side,its pretty simple. Add two div tags,with float property of each set to right,left and margin pixel as 1px, see the screen shots below .W ell this works if there is no content below the ads. If we plan to place ads side by side above your content,and  if there is enough space between the two ads, content might overlap,it will automatically fit in between the ads. you can do some tweaks for this .I ncrease the margin pixel size of your container which holds the ads which will  eventually reduce the extra space between  ads. I modified the margin pixel size of the second container .See the modifications below. <div style='float:left; Margin: 1px;'> Your Ad Code </div> <div style='float:left; Margin: 40px;'> Your Ad Code </div> Now my ads are happily displaying side by side without any overlapping content !!!.  Also see the posts Blog option to delete images Lumi...

solution for removing duplicate title tag in your blog

I have resolved the issue of duplicate title tags,In my case,I have made 10 different titles but all starting with the same wordings initially (as it addresses same topic different issues)and a difference in the latter part. After analysing the title,i came to know, the blog by default creates the title from the initial part of wordings,also based on that it creates an html file for your post . I have rearranged my titles so that the later part which has the real meaningful difference in wordings will come first,by doing this way had created unique  titles and the corresponding html files for me.Others please find some suitable unique titles and modify accordingly. Once you have addressed this issue,within 2-3 weeks all the errors which were previously showing in Webmaster Tools,Diagnostic section->HTML Suggestions had gone !! it looks clean now. Also keep a periodic check to your Webmaster Tools and its a...

issue in deleting files from windows search results - cannot read from source file or disk

Image
I faced a strange issue while trying to delete  files from windows search results. My idea is to delete all the image files from my computer,so for this i opted windows search option,i tried to search 'Pictures and Photos' from mycomputer,it had given me a list of files. I sticked the traditional idea of doing ctrl-a shift-delete,but end up seeing the below exception. Solution: Right click on the file, open the containing folder and started deleting all  files  from that folder using the traditional way of ctrl-a shift-delete,it worked !!!. Do this process repeatedly to delete all the files.I believe there is no other easy way for this :)

Aadhar UID Enrollment Steps made Easier than before

Enrolment Procedure Normally enrollment can be done through all Post Offices on specified dates.You can enroll in other Centers also identified for this.I went to nearby Post Office and done the entire process within half an hour. The enrollment process is very easy,Post Office guys will give you the Enrollment Form Upfront(This Enrollment Form Format might be different in different centres,means format will vary slightly),Fill up the necessary details,while submitting you have to carry  the required documents (Id,Address Proof)'. Its Best if you have a Xerox of DL or Passport which has both ID and Address Proof.So it alone will suffice for both,Other wise you need to provide the necessary Proofs,the list of supportings/Proofs will be displayed in every Post Office,Also there is no need to take  any Originals or Photo  with us at the time of enrollment. Once Verified they will issue a token,With this token you can go ahead and ...

Tips to handle bad vehicle servicing,misplaced or destroyed parts

Dont agree anything verbally,like that they will replace this next day or so.if you are casual they will not turn up. Make it written and signed by the executive atleast  in the job card. Dont take the old/damaged parts ...leave it in the service center itself if possible. Finally dont sign any papers given by them post servicing, also dont pay the bill till it got repaired/replaced. Give appropriate feedback based on your experience post servicing. For complaints There will be a GM associated with every dealers, give a written complaint,and lastly write to the company stating the issue.
