Logo design contest

Standard
If you think you are a good designer then I would definitely advice you to join the new logo design contest of the webdigity community.

The prize is $100 and I think what they ask is really simple for someone who knows a little Photoshop or Illustrator.

Monetize your wordpress blog

Standard

Web 2.0 announcer just announced the release of the monetizer plugin for wordpress. The plugin can be used to display the top stories from social bookmarks – like Digg, netscape, delicious, etc. – for the tags you are interested in.

In addition to that web 2.0 announcer gives you 50% of the adsense advertisements, which is a good motivation to use the plugin 🙂

More php tutorials from webdigity

Standard

I would like to announce that webdigity has opened the tutorials section to non webdigity members, so it would be easier for everyone to get tutorials from them for free.

The webdigity tutorials, consist mostly of php tutorials and there are many code snippets there that you would pay to get them elsewhere.

Also there is an RSS feed for the tutorials which you can subscribe to, if you are interested in coding. Enjoy 🙂

Php code to retrieve your alexa rank

Standard

Before some time I was looking for a script that can grab any domain’s alexa ranking. This task looks easy so I guess there should be a free code snippet somewhere that deals with it. Well the funny thing is that it is not so easy to grab your rank programatically so I guess that is the reason that people sell such scripts for $10 – $30.

So as I don’t like paying for stuff like that I wrote a simple function that grabs any domain’s alexa rank and return it so you can use it in your apps. You can get the snippet from here :

It requires to be member of webdigity (free) but I guess it is better than paying for it. Right? 🙂
