Cool Newz Update: 9/10

Once again, posting up another Cool Newz Update. Hopefully everyone is starting to see a trend here. I'm trying to post daily, or close to daily, with either a Cool Newz Update, or How To. Although in the future, there should be some new types of posts. For now, your stuck with what you have :P

Todays update is giving you all an idea on what is it come. Like I keep saying, I hope to be adding some new features to the blog soon. These new additions should be coming in fresh this weekend. I promise to get them in by Sunday, although I plan to have it in sometime on Saturday.

This post was more of a filler, just so you didn't think I was leaving all of you great supporters, (hence the picture)

I must continue to thank all of my small, yet dedicated supporters. One of my plans is to have ways for you to post your thoughts about the blog and questions, ect. But I don't want to spoil too much :3

For those of you still reading, let me make this short. Thanks for sticking around!

How to: Stop following a Blog

Hey everyone, heres another How To. Thought this one might be helpful for those sites that you started to follow, but had second thoughts. Not that I am suggesting to remove yourself, (please don't, I love you all too much!) But realistically, you might not like a blog you started following and want to opt-out. Heres what to do.

1) Go to the blog you followed, and wanted to remove yourself.

2) Under Followers, click on Options then Site Settings.

3) Once you did this, you should have a window pop open. If not, try disabling your Pop-up blocker. (On a side note, please disable for this site to allow for popup ads :3)

4) In the new window, make sure you are on the Basics tab. Here you will see a blue link, like in the picture. Stop following this site. (something like this)

5) Simply click it, it will stop following the site, and remove you from the list. You will no be successfully removed from the site's Followers.

Its not much, but its a helpful tip that can help out when you're annoyed and can't figure out how to remove yourself. Hope you guys find this How To helpful!

Like always, please check in daily, I appreciate the little support this blog gets daily. I really owe it to you guys who keep checking back. I'll try to open up a suggestion section soon so I can get some feed back. I have a big chunk of site updates coming soon, just I haven't had the time to add them all and will as soon as I get some more free time.

Keep checking daily for more updates!

And one last thing, for the Pop-Ads, I KNOW they are annoying. I don't exactly like the service too much, partly due to very low payment-per-view. I promise once I reach $5 (Minimum cashout) I will remove them from the site. So far I'm only at around $0.05 with about 70 views.

Heres the list:

• New site background
• New page navigation
• Updated ToS + button
• New About page (In construction, but there is a nice game to play)
• New Ad system (Along with AdSense/Link here: click )

As you can see, theres been alot of new adds to the site. I hope to keep providing new content for everyone. All I ask of you is to keep up the daily views. If you really want to be helpful, bring in some friends to check out the blog, it would be greatly appreciated.

How to: Add new pages to your Blog

Cool News, bringing you yet another How To.

This time I'll be showing you step by step, how to setup your very own Static Pages, which is provided by blogger.

Let's get started:

1) Go to Design (or add a new post, it takes you to the same menu)

2) Under the Posting tab (pictured above), go to sub-tab Edit Pages

3) Here, you will see a button to Add New Page, because you have none so far. Click this button.

4) Now enter the name of this page, ect. It will create it for you. Once created, edit the page.

5) When you edit a page, you can insert any text you want, along with HTML code. This will allow you to create various pages to use for your Blog.

6) OPTIONAL: You can go to you Widgets (Design), and move the Pages widget to the horizontal position which would create a navigation bar effect, similar to what I have on my page.

This would allow users to get that "website" feel to help find their way to your newly created pages.

Like always, I hope this information is helpful to you. If you have any comments/questions/concerns, please comment below.

On a side note, the Terms of Service page has been updated, be sure you check it out to make sure you're not breaking any rules. Thanks again to all my faithful followers, don't forget to spread the word to your friends!

Cool Newz Update: 9/1

Cool News, bringing you another Update. This one is pretty important, due to reports of recent abuse. To all users out there that are not causing any abuse, I thank you and plead that you remain loyal followers. :3

Currently, a ToS is being setup, but right now it is not fully configured and may be pretty annoying (I must admit). Hopefully soon a cookie system will be setup so once you accept the terms, you won't be prompted every time you visit the site. For now, please hang in there. If you have any questions about this, please post below.

And if anyone is having similar abuse, I may post a guide on how to setup your VERY OWN ToS. (Granted that the demand is high enough).

Thanks for reading this Cool Newz Update.

How to: Add a View Counter to your Blog

Cool News, bringing you another HOW TO. I just added this myself, you might have noticed it on the right hand side. What it does is simple this, everytime someone visits your site, it will add to this counter. Now theres different ways to configure it so let me give you the steps.

1) Go to this link, http://www.easycounter.com/FreeCounter3.html.

2) Once at the link, enter your login details, along with password/email/website.

3) Now, theres an option for "Show" and "Counter Type". For "Show", there is either Unique visitors or All hits. I recommend Unique visitors, but you can do either one. For "Counter Type", select HTML.

4) Now once you hit "Create my Account", it will give you some handy HTML code. Copy that, and head over to your blog. (http://coolnewz4u.blogspot.com/)

5) With the code still saved on the clip board (copy), go to Design. Here, you can pick where to add the counter on your page. Select "Add a gadget" and pick HTML/Javascript. Simply enter the code you got, and save.

Now, you should start seeing your counter increase, as your loyal followers check out your cool blog! I hope this info was helpful, please post if you need further help. Thanks for reading this HOW TO!
