How to Backup Blogspot Blog Using Blogger Export Feature

Have you ever worried about the safety of your Blogger blog? As long as you write your blog with the right spirit, it is safe in Google server. They delete a blog from their server only if the blogger team find it is spamming. So theoretically every useful blog is safe with Google. However, it is better you have the backup of your work on your computer to make sure it is cent percent safe. Though Google (Google owns blogger ) is a reliable company, it cannot guarantee cent percent safety for your content and hard work. So I highly recommend taking backups often to counter any unexpected deletion of blogs from their server. Blogger has a feature to export the blog saved in their server. We can use this feature to take the backup.

How to Export Your Blogspot Blog From Blogger
  1. Login to the blogger account

  2. Click on Settings
    Export database

  3. Click on Other
    backup your blogspot site

  4. Click on Export blog link
    Blogger backup

It is very easy to take entire backup of a Blogspot blog to a computer. I strongly recommend you to exportBlogspott site often including images to your computer. So you won't need to worry in case if Google changes its policy in the future. You are safe with your content because you have the backup. It is important to have a backup of all images you have uploaded to a server. I learned it from my experience because I had been using ImageShack to upload pictures but later they discontinued their service. Unless I pay for the service offered by them, they won't keep the pictures I had uploaded to ImageShack server. I lost some of my pictures but couldn't hit me hard because I have the backup.

Steps to Backup a Classic Blogspot blog

Now let us check how to export the Blogspot site from the server if you are using the classic template. The method is similar to the process we did on the new interface but the export option is on a different page.
  1. Login to the blogger account

  2. Click on Settings
    save to PC

  3. Click on Export blog
    export
  4. Click on Download blog

Now you can save Blogspot backup on your computer. This downloaded file is in XML format. In case if you want to migrate to WordPress, you can use the same file.

Blogger Blog With Custom Domain is Not Opening in My Country

Right now I am having issues with opening CoreNetworkZ.com in India and it is the same story for all blogger blogs with custom domains. I noticed this problem on yesterday night but I thought it was just a temporary phenomenon and never cared much about it. Sometimes my Internet Service Provider shows strange issues. I have been using BSNL and Bharti Airtel for my home.

Today morning some of my friends called and informed me about the issue. They too are not able to open my blog on their computers. Seems a serious problem, so I have started working with it. I tried to open my blog on my desktop computer but failed. On both my desktop and laptop, the browser seems to wait for my blog and it is not coming to an end. Once I faced such an issue with my BSNL connection; so decided to check with different Internet Service Provider. I tried different Internet Service Providers but the result is the same.
I Cannot Access Certain Websites With BSNL Internet Connection

Blogger Blogs are Not Opening In My Country

I decided to check whether it is just my issue or others are also facing it. I found following Google support thread and the issue is all over in India. No blogger blogs with the custom domain are opening in India. Link to the thread is given below.

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/blogger/thread?tid=1e2800433e48d3e3&hl=en

It is a country specific issue. I have verified it with proxy and my blog is opening in all other countries. So I think there is nothing I can do at my side because it is a Blogspot problem.  Perhaps any firewall settings on the Indian Internet gateway prevents the Blogspot or any changes in blogger server privilege prevents it from showing in India. They must come with a solution to this problem and I am eagerly waiting for it.

Check Reading Level of a Blog in Google Search

Google has introduced a new Search filter named Reading Level. This feature helps us to filter search results based on the standard of the content. There are three categories of the reading level; basic, intermediate and advanced. We can choose the desired reading level from the advanced search page. These three classifications are based on the level of expertise in the articles. For example, if you are looking for tutorials to start learning a new subject, it is better you choose basic and intermediate. However, for a researcher, 'advanced' is preferred. So for a researcher who is looking for in-depth knowledge in a particular topic must choose advanced rather than basic or intermediate. The same feature helps to classify the quality of a website in case of the level of knowledge.



Let us check the reading level of this blog. Here I enabled the option to annotate results with reading level from the advanced search page.
Find reading level of a blog

According to Google, the reading level of CoreNetworkZ.com is intermediate.



Enable Reading Level

If you want to see search results with reading level, you can simply do it from the advanced page. You can annotate the reading standard with the web pages displayed on Google by following the steps below.
  1. Advanced Search

    To go to Google advanced search, visit the link below.
    http://www.google.com/advanced_search

  2. Select Annotate results with reading Standard
    find high quality websites

  3. Click Advanced Search button

How to Check Content Standard  Of a Website

If you want to check the reading level of a website or blog, you can do it very simply. You should go to Google advanced search with the filter Annotate results with the standard of content and type site:blog address. For example, if you want to check the reading standard of this blog, use the command site:corenetworkz.com on advanced search and press enter. This will show all the indexed pages of this blog with the content standard. If you just want to check the home page only, you do not need to add the prefix 'site:' before the domain name.

Display Advanced Search Results Only

If you are already master in a particular topic and do not want basic information, you should select the filter show only advanced results from Google advanced search page. If you are not an expert in a topic and plan to learn it, better choose the basic or intermediate filter.

Granding Access By Controling Another Gmail Account

How many of you are managing more than one Gmail accounts? I am having more than one accounts and I often think it would be nice if I can log in to all by a single login. Google has a solution for those who are struggling to handle multiple email accounts. That solution is called Email Delegation and this feature authorizes any other Gmail accounts to access your Gmail account without typing or knowing your password. Don't worry, nobody can access your email without your authorization. The 'grant access request' must send from your Gmail account and the second user should accept it. After the verification, he can log in to your mail account without typing your password via his account. You can block the user at any time if you are not willing to grant entry for him anymore.

Allow Access To Another Gmail

In order to enable Email Delegation for your Gmail ID, follow the steps below.
  1. Click on Settings (On Top right of the window)
    reading

  2. Click on Accounts and Import
    accounts

  3. Click Add Another Account
    hack in to another

    Once you click the link "Add Another Account" you will get a popup where you can type the email address of the desired ID using which the entire emails coming to you can be read. Now a confirmation mail will send to the email ID typed here.

  4. Once after he verified it, he will be able to access and read emails on your behalf at any time. The confirmation mail looks like one below. He can either confirm or reject the offer.
    no third party access my mail id

How to Block The same user from Accessing my Google mail

You don't need to worry if you are no longer interested to give access to your Google mail. You can always end it on your own. Once after the email delegation feature is activated you will see an alert like one for seven days. Look at the image below to see how the warning looks like.
someone enter your g mail

It is important to note that, this alert will come to an end after seven days. So how you stop someone from access your Google email? It is very easy. You may log in to Gmail settings page and check whether is there any ID which has access to this id. You can see one like shown below.
unauthorized entry

All you have to do is to click the delete button. Once you delete the ID, they will never again see or read emails comes to you.

Enable Google SafeSearch Lock Permanently On Firefox, Chrome etc

If you are a responsible parent, you cannot allow your kids to view websites which are not appreciated at their age. Google provides SafeSearch options for you to protect your kids from watching unwanted websites and domains. However, most kids know how to disable SafeSearch feature and access restricted websites by Google Search. Here I suggest a method to set permanent Google SafeSearch lock on a computer which cannot be disabled by simply choosing turn off protection option. It is a browser level lock to stop showing unwanted search results and can be done on major browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Internet Explorer etc.


Permanently Set Google SafeSearch On a Browser


In order to set permanent SafeSearch lock on a browser, you should log in to your Google account. After configuring this lock, it will work on that browser even if you have logged out from your account. Since it is a browser level block, you must perform the same steps on all browsers installed on your laptop. For example, the lock you set on Chrome doesn't mean Firefox has the same block unless you set it on Firefox too.

  1. Click on Settings on Search Result page
    Safe Search

  2. Click on Search Settings from the drop-down menu


  3. Click on Lock SafeSearch
    Permanent Safe Search lock

    It is under SafeSearch Filters and you will be prompted to log in to your Google account.

  4. Login to your Account
    logical block

  5. Click on Lock SafeSearch
    safety

    Now it will show you a message "Locking SafeSearch across all Google domains". When the process is finished you will see the following message.

    "SafeSearch is locked across all Google domains"

    Safe is locked across all domains

How Would I Know Safe Search is On?

You can easily find out whether Safe Search is on by checking the following symbol.
browse

You can verify the status of SafeSearch on your browser by seeing the above symbol. This lock works on the browser even if you logged out.


How to Unlock Permanent Google Safe Search Lock

The browser lock method we explained here is not literally permanent. One can easily break this lock by simply clearing the cookies and browser cache. It is because after deleting the cookies, Google SafeSearch settings will be back to default. So this trick is not as safe like installing parental control programs on your computer to prevent users browse unwanted search on Google. One method to prevent children from clearing the cache and cookies of a browser is to set master password. Once a master password is set, kids cannot remove cookies without typing the secret password.

How to Open Recently Closed Google Chrome Browser Tabs

Google Chrome has crossed the popularity of Firefox and becomes the number one web browser. The skinny design and fast loading speed help it to beat other browsers. Though this skinny light design is very helpful, it does have its own negatives too. This skinny design may sometimes make us close tabs accidentally. This tutorial explains how to recover the recently closed Google Chrome browser tabs on your computer. We can recover the last terminated tabs by multiple methods.


Different ways to Restore Recently Closed Google Chrome Tabs
  1. Keyboard Shortcut

    Use the combination [CTRL] + [Shift] + [T] to open most recently closed Chrome tab in your computer. If you want to recover second last terminated tab, you may need to press the same keyboard combination. If you press the same set of keys again, third last closed tab will open. In my personal experience, it is the fasted way to recover closed Chrome browser pages on a PC.

  2. Thumbnail

    Start a new tab and look at the thumbnails displayed there. It shows a list of recently terminated tabs and we can restart anyone of them from the list.
    top most

    Just click on any on the thumbnail will open that specific tab. A major advantage of this method is the control over the specific tab reopening. You can select the right page you want to reopen without repeating the process from the most recent to last.

  3. From History

    You can go to Chrome history and open any previously closed page. To do this either press [CTRL] + [H] or type chrome://history/ on address bar. It will show complete list of previously closed Chrome pages. You can restore any pages listed there by simply clicking on them. This trick also gives the freedom to select the right page you want to recover from the list, without repeating the same process.

  4. Right Click on Chrome and Reopen Recently Closed Tab

    You can right click on the top of the browser, and select the option to reopen the recently closed tab.
    right

By these four methods,s you will not find any difficulties to recover recently terminated pages. My personal favorites to start most recently terminated page are method one and four. These two methods don't bother to give an option from which we must select the right page to reopen. However, if you want to reopen a specific web page from the list of terminated pages, methods 2 and 3 and fine.

How to Solve Oops! Firefox Could not Find HTTP

For the past few days, I was getting the error message Oops! Firefox could not find HTTP whenever I tried to open a link in new tab. Instead of showing the webpage, Firefox start showing a Google page with the alert "Oops! Firefox could not find HTTP". Only after refreshing the page multiple times, I could access the webpage. At first, I thought it was the issue with the web address but later I realized the truth. I was getting the same error with many websites and those websites work fine with other web browsers like Internet Explorer, Chrome etc. I read some interesting discussions about this issue on popular discussion forums and they have listed some common reasons for getting this message instead of opening the destination website after clicked a link.

Reasons for Oops! Firefox could not find HTTP

Some of the reasons I found from various discussion forums and portals are:
  • Lower Memory and high number of Tabs opened

  • Malicious Program ( I read it as Google Virus )

  • Maybe DNS(Domain Name System) resolving issues

  • Security Programs stop Firefox from accessing website details

As I noticed, I was getting this error message mostly when multiple tabs were opened. It is because if we try to open a new tab, it may prevent Mozilla browser from loading the details of the new webpage due to low memory. So Firefox shows this error message instead of displaying the link. Another possibility I read is the presence of some malicious programs which affect browsers installed on the PC. Malicious programs stop Firefox from displaying websites and redirect to Google Search with this message.

If the firewall installed on a PC blocks Firefox from accessing website details, it can cause this issue. Last possible reason is DNS failure. If your computer failed to resolve the Domain Name System queries, Firefox can't find the web page. So Domain Name System issue is also a possible reason.

Solution

We can solve this issue without much difficulty. Possible steps to fix this issue are:

  1. Close unwanted tabs

  2. Make sure Firefox is whitelisted in Firewall settings

  3. Assign Open DNS or Google DNS

    To get more details about assigning Open DNS in your computer follow the links below.

All those applications he uses regularly will be placed here and he will find no issues with finding these applications. However, certain users hate to see the recently used applications in the Start menu and want to prevent the recently executed programs from showing here. This tutorial explains how to stop this automatically storing of recently executed applications here.


Prevent Windows 7 from Storing Recently Opened Programs in Start Menu

  1. Right Click on the Start button and click properties


  2. Click on Start menu and uncheck both boxes


    After this, you should click on Apply and OK.

How Does It Work

Now let us check how does this procedure work? As we know, Microsoft Operating systems display the recently opened programs on Start menu by default, we have to change its properties and uncheck the option to Store and Display. Once we have unchecked the checkbox near this and save settings, you will not see the automatic inclusion of recently executed applications in the list.

For example, I have started a Microsoft game Chess Titans on my laptop and closed it. Before changing the Menu properties, once I closed this Microsoft game, it will start showing there. However, after unchecking the checkbox near "Store and Display recently opened programs", there is no display of "Chess Titans" in the menu.

Increase Google Spider Crawl Rate Of a Website

Search Engines automatically assign a specific rate of crawling for websites in their index. This rate depends on factors like how fast the webmaster update his site, the popularity of the pages etc. Though we cannot control the indexing pattern of Search Engine Spiders, there is a method to change the speed of crawling at least for Google spiders. This tutorial explains one method to change the current spider crawling rate if you feel the Google spiders crawl rate of your website is very low. To assign a specific crawling speed for Google spiders, you must have a verified webmaster tools account.


Steps to Manually Change Google Crawling rate Of Websites

The first step to perform this action is to verify your webmaster tools account with the domain name for which you are going to change the spider crawling rate. In order to set custom crawling rate for your domain, follow the steps below.
  1. Login to your Google Webmaster Tools Account. Use the link to login http://www.google.com/webmastertools

  2. Click on Settings (on the left-hand side of the page)

  3. Select set custom crawl rate
    CoreNetworkZ


    Use the slider to change the automatic speed. If you move the slider left, spiders will visit your website in less frequency. If you want them very often on your web pages, you should move the slider to right. Do not forget to save the current changes you have made.

New custom made crawl rate is valid for 90 days only. Please note that if Google sets a default crawling speed for your website, you cannot change it by yourself. For a domain with default indexing speed assigned by Google, you will not see the slider to alter the current crawling speed. So this tutorial will work for those lucky webmasters whose domains are still having freedom to change the current indexing speed. So don't waste your time thinking because you must start quickly before big G assign automatic value.

If you set the slider to slower side, big G robots will reduce its frequency to visit your site and there is a risk of losing the recent updates from their attention. It is OK for a website having a very rare content update like a static website but for a dynamic web portal I recommend you to move the slider to faster side. though robots will visit your site very often and consume server bandwidth, they will not miss any recent updates.

Troubles With Changing Yahoo Messenger Display Image

Last time while chatting with one of my friends in Yahoo Messenger, he said that he was unable to see my display image. Then I checked and saw no display image was selected. As usual, I selected the display image and click OK. However, it didn't fix the issue and the display showed blank. I tried again to select my uploaded image in Yahoo Messenger but the issue remained, as the display still showed blank. I checked the reason for this trouble in some forums and found that issue of unable to change yahoo messenger profile picture is a common issue. It may be from the server side or the issue from client side. Another kind of issue is with seeing the display image of chat friend. Instead of showing his display image you may see a black window. This tutorial explains a set of possible steps to troubleshoot issues with changing current yahoo messenger display image.


How to Solve Issues with Changing Yahoo Messenger Display Image


Possible troubleshooting steps you can follow while facing this problem are:
  1. Log off and Login

  2. Delete the currently saved pictures and load the images again

  3. Try to upload JPEG format images (usually, png format has compatibility issues)

  4. Make sure you are using the latest version of YM

  5. Delete the Yahoo Messenger current cache and re-login

    You can delete Yahoo Messenger cache in the following path.
    My Computer> Local Drive C >Program Files >Yahoo > Messenger >Cache

  6. Make sure you have latest Adobe Flash Player installed on your computer

  7. Uninstall and reinstall Yahoo Messenger

All the above steps work only if the reason for the issue is from the user end. For example, if the software installed on a PC is outdated, it may not work as expected. We can resolve that situation by completely removing the software from the PC and install the latest release. If the issue is from the server side, none of the above tips will work. In that case, all you can do is to wait.

While selecting a picture to set for the profile, it is important to check the format. We cannot expect a tool supports every format. YM supports JPEG format more than png. If you have a selected a png picture, there might be a chance of compatibility issues. To avoid such a problem, it is better to choose a file with right format.

How to Disable Windows File Indexing

Indexing is the process of creating records of programs and other files on your Windows computer. It helps to fetch search results faster using Microsoft OS search. Indexing process consumes a portion of overall system efficiency. If you use the search feature very often on your laptop, it is better to keep the indexing active but if you don't care much about search speed, you can disable it. Disable indexing can improve the system performance a little bit more. Windows 7 is always looking for files to be updated to its index and it may reduce efficiency. If you are looking for a fast system search, you should not turn off this feature. If you are looking for performance and don't bother the speed of file search for a particular program or file, it is better you turn off indexing feature. If you do not know how to do it, I suggest you read the steps provided below.

Steps to Turn off Windows Indexing

In order to turn off indexing in Windows 8 and 7 computers, you need to enable don't use the index in control panel. You can enable it by following the instructions below.

    To turn off it in Windows 8 and 7 computer, you should check the checkbox of "Don't use the index when searching in file folders for system files". After checking the box, you should click on Apply and OK. Now onwards your computer will not use this feature.


After completing this procedure your laptop will show a little more performance. However, in case if you want to look for a specific file on your laptop, you will see more time to find it by the OS. It is because there are no updates regarding the newer files to the OS index. So your laptop gets extra performance at the cost of slower file searching. If you have the habit of forgetting saved file locations, I recommend you to keep this feature active.
