How to Change Upload URL into SEO Friendly Links
For more blogging tutorial visit here. For how to make money online visit here
Whatever (files, images or videos) you’ve uploaded s into a self-hosted wordpress, the link path into those files is not pretty. It’ll look like this (in my case): http://fatihsyuhud.com/wp-content/uploads/year/month/image.jpg
From esthetical and SEO perspective, this kind of link is not good. The good one should be like this: http://fatihsyuhud.com/downloads/images.jpg or http://fatihsyuhud.com/downloads/video.avi or http://fatihsyuhud.com/downloads/cpns_deplu.pdf, etc
Fortunately, you can easily change that not-SEO friendly link into the one which is not only pretty but also would help you optimize it in the search result pages.
Here’s how:
1. After login, click SETTING -> MiSCELLANEOUS.
2. In the “Store uploads in this folder” -> delete “wp-content/uploads” and change it into “downloads”
3. Unchecked the “Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders”
4. Click -> Save Changes. Done.
Now you have a pretty uploaded URL path. Your uploaded file from now on will look like: http://fatihsyuhud.com/downloads/files.pdf, etc..
See the live demo here. (look at the link path URL)
Notes:
1. You may change the word “downloads” into whatever names you want. WordPress.com uses “files” instead of “downloads”.
2. If you’ve uploaded some images before this change, don’t worry. The previous url address will not change. It will change only the future uploaded links.
Filezilla FTP Client
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. And Filezilla is the most popular FTP so far.
Filezilla ftp client is used as another way to access the server of our cpanel (control panel) of webhosting we use to host a self-hosted blog or website. Especially important to use Filezilla to upload a big file or files within a folder from a PC into a webhosting. There are many free ftp on the internet. But Filezilla is the most popular and most reliable one.
If you have a self-hosted blog, having Filezilla installed on your PC is a must. Not for those who run a free blog such as blogger.com or wordpress.com in which case you do not need and cannot use FTP.
These are the software details:
Name of software: Filezilla
Website: filezilla-project.org
Download: Free download for all kind of OS (operating system)
Installation: After download, just double-click the .exe file. The process will be self-explanatory.
How to setup, connect and integrate your server with Filezilla so that you can transfer (upload / download) a file or many files within a folder to your wehbosting :
1. Click Filezilla icon in you desktop
2. Click “New Site”
3. I name it fatihsyuhud
4. In “Hosts” I enter fatihsyuhud.com
5. Port 21 (by default)
6. Server Type: FTP (by default)
7. Logontype: check “Normal”
8. User: your username when login into your cpanel
9. Password: your password to enter your cpanel
10. Click “Save and Exit”. Done.
From now whenever I want to upload file to my server, I just click “Filezilla” in my desktop -> click fatihsyuhud -> click Connect. There will be two boxes showing up, left side and right side. Left side consist of files in my computers, while right side box is files in my webhosting.
Whenever I want to upload a file, I just press the file from left-side and drag it into the right side, in a place I want it to put.
Example, I want to put file of sideblog plugin, I will drag the “sideblog.php” into public_html -> wp-content -> plugins -> put plugins here.
Ftp Filezilla can also be used to change file attributes knows as CHMOD. Click the file in the webhost -> right-click -> File attributes -> check the box as you wish. E.g. from 666 into 755 etc.

Google to turn digital books into paperbacks
Google Inc. is giving 2 million books in its digital library a chance to be reincarnated as paperbacks.
As part of a deal announced Thursday, Google is opening up part of its index to the maker of a high-speed publishing machine that can manufacture a paperback-bound book of about 300 pages in under five minutes. The new service is an acknowledgment by the Internet search leader that not everyone wants their books served up on a computer or an electronic reader like those made by Amazon.com Inc. and Sony Inc.
The “Espresso Book Machine” has been around for several years already, but it figures to become a hotter commodity now that it has access to so many books scanned from some of the world’s largest libraries. And On Demand Books, the Espresso’s maker, potentially could get access to even more hard-to-find books if Google wins court approval of a class-action settlement giving it the right to sell out-of-print books.
