Dofollow atau Nofollow. Pilih Mana?


Dofollow atau Nofollow, apa sih sebenarnya? Mungkin bagi teman-teman Blogger lain sudah mengenal dan mengerti tentang apa pengertian dari Dofollow atau Nofollow. Tapi tidak ada salahnya juga aku me-review tentang kedua hal itu. Ibarat manusia, mereka berdua tidak ada yang sempurna. Yups . . benar? Mereka berdua memiliki sebuah kelebihan dan juga kekurangan. Tapi apa saja?
Oleh sebab itu, aku akan sedikit membuat diskusi kecil disini. Isi dari artikel ini aku rangkum dari 10 sumber pada Google Page 1 dengan keyword “Kelebihan dan kekurangan Blog Dofollow Nofollow”.


Pengertian Dofollow dan Nofollow :
DoFollow adalah sebuah istilah pada blog/website dimana jika kita memberikan komentar pada blog tersebut, maka link yang kita masukkan saat berkomentar akan dianggap sebagai Backlink oleh mesin pencari.
NoFollow adalah sebuah istilah pada blog/website dimana jika kita memberikan komentar pada blog tersebut,maka link yang kita masukkan saat berkomentar tidak akan dianggap sebagai BackLink oleh mesin pencari.


Kelebihan Dofollow dan Nofollow :
Dofollow
·         Jumlah dan kualitas visitor akan banyak hanya karena Backlink.
·         Banyak komentar pada blog yang membuat puas karena artikel kita seperti diperhatikan.
·         Menaikkan PR Google karena tukar link. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
·         Menjadi terkenal/eksis dikalangan Blogger lain.
·         Cepat menaikkan Alexa Rank. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
·         Mendapatkan banyak earning dari iklan karena banyak visitor oportunis
·         Bisa mendapatkan iklan dari advertiser.
Nofollow
·         Aman dari gangguan spammer.
·         Alexa Rank lambat untuk turun. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
·         Jumlah dan kualitas visitor lebih baik karena biasanya itu pengunjung baru dan akan kembali jika isi artikelnya menarik.
·         PR Google tidak akan terpengaruh. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
·         Mendapatkan traffic unique visitor dari search engine.
·         Lebih diminati Google dalam hal SEO.
·         Bisa mendapatkan earning lebih jika untuk bisnis.
·         Kualitas komentar lebih baik dan umumnya komentar diberikan karena isi artikel bermanfaat atau berupa pertanyaan.

Kekurangan Dofollow dan Nofollow :
Dofollow
·         Banyak komentar spam.
·         Kualitas komentar jelek karena hanya sebatas “Thanks, Nice, dll”.
·         Posisi blog di SERP menurun karena backlink. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
·         PR Google bisa turun karena banyak outbound link.
·         Rawan terhadap spammer.
·         Cepat menurunkan Alexa Rank. (ada yang berpendapat lain)
Nofollow
·         Pengunjung hanya mencari informasi artikel kita jadi jarang untuk berkomentar.
·         Pengunjung sedikit tapi tergantung kualitas blog kita sendiri.
·         Komentar sedikit, maka blog kita seperti tidak eksis bagi kalangan Blogger lain.

Nah, dari semua kelebihan dan kekurangan Blog Dofollow atau Nofollow ini apa pendapat kalian? Semua pasti punya jawaban sendiri dan juga keyakinan sendiri, maka dari itu, Be Yourself . . .

SOTW – Kelli Craft Studio

clip_image001

I am pleased to present this week’s shop of the week: KelliCraftStudio which is owned and operated by Kellisa Watkins.

Kelli creates handcrafted jewelry, accessories, and stationary. The items created at Kelli Craft Studio are for the busy Every-woman from 16 to 99+ who wants to adorn herself with one-of-a-kind handcrafted jewelry and want to send their personal correspondence in a more intimate way.

While some jewelry artist design big statement jewelry or more modest yet expensive jewelry, Kelli Craft Studio provides classic, dainty jewelry styles at a reasonable cost. During this time of an unstable economy, it is nice to be able to look expensive without making the expense. Also, the lovingly handcrafted greeting cards are not only made on quality card stock, but the precision and attention to detail is used to create miniature art pieces a recipient would keep for years to come.

You may be surprised to know that she started her first creative business when she was in junior high school. It was called Kelly's Korner. She sold crochet clothes, dolls, and gift baskets.

When asked who the most influential person in teaching her craft she answered, “I have had classes and knowledgeable instructors who have given me the proverbial keys to my creative “car”, but experience and a drive to improve my skills have kept me going. My family and friends have influenced me to feed the flame of my creative spirit and for that I am grateful.”

Her favorite artist is Salvador Dali. “His surrealistic work is strange with a hint of understated beauty. If you look at one of his paintings, your eyes can go past the initial image to beyond. I love imagery.”

We also asked Kelli if she had a million dollars and she HAD to give every penny of it away, who would she give it to and why? She said, “I would give away every penny to my children and my family. My family has provided me with a beautiful future and I want to give back. My children are the future and I want to pay it forward.”

Finally, since this is the EtsyTwitter Team, we have to ask something about Twitter… We asked if she had any advice to give to a new Twitter user and she said, “Don't feel compelled to follow everyone who follows you. Pretend like Twitter is a dinner party where you invite the people you don't mind conversing with. In turn, you need to also be that interesting dinner guest to your followers and share yourself.”

Ying and Yang

I felt the need to write this article after hearing Historian David Starkey’s comments“ The Whites have become Black” which he expressed on Friday 12th August on Newsnight. The riots and looting that took place regionally involved all races yet somehow Starkey’s finger of blame is being directed solely with one group of people. Black people and their “perceived” culture.  
Starkey is a historian and one who clearly picks and chooses what aspects of findings he wants to use to push his argument and agenda, which is narrow minded and offensive. Yes Black culture has been influential in England but also across the world in positive ways from food, music and clothes, though Starkey seems to blame black culture for the change in language and so much more. He said "This language which is wholly false, which is this Jamaican patois that’s been intruded in England, and this is why so many of us have this sense of literally a foreign country".  Now we all know this statement is not true so I do not feel the need to break it down to discredit his argument. 
He went on to say “Listen to David Lammy, an archetypical successful black man, if you turned the screen off so you were listening to him on radio you’d think he was white." I am not sure what point he was trying to make but clearly anyone who speaks like him must represent who he believes he is, which is intelligent, educated and civilised. Making the David Lammy comparison would also imply that he is somehow different from other Black people. The overall tone was Us vs. Them, maintaining the greater than (Superiority) and Less than (Inferiority) tone. "The Whites have become Blacks.” As I repeat this again and again to find some sort of clarity of what he means, I hit a dead end each time. What does he mean? He mentions Chav’s so am I to assume that chavs are the new Blacks? Either way his comments are offensive in the same way as...
Starkey also said it’s not about skin colour it’s culture and then proceeds to mention Black culture. Culture is ideals, beliefs, art, literature etc of particular groups. The group he is choosing to focus on is Black, so how is his statement not about skin colour and therefore ‘race’?

Language is important and so are labels. Both are powerful in both conscious and unconscious ways. Recent developments in the analysis of DNA, confirms that the concept of ‘race’ is a constructed one, with no objective basis in biology. This concept as well as the notions of ‘Black’ and ‘White’ were imposed by the colonial powers. Rustin (1991) said, “It is both an empty category and one of the most powerful forms of social categorization” (Rustin, p.57). Categorising a group of people puts people in brackets and furthers the tone of hierarchy and rank. Colour terminology for ‘race’, the categorisation of people based on the colour of their skin, serves the same purpose.  Black and white it isn’t, as no other group of people are defined or referred to by skin colour and no other colours in the spectrum of colours, has such diverse symbolic, metaphorical, cultural connotations attached to it (Lago & Smith, 2003).

Like the Chinese Ying and Yang symbol, black and white are seen as direct opposites of each other. However there strengths are individually celebrated and when viewed as a whole this symbol represents harmony and balance. In society these colours, which “identify” the ‘race’ of a group of people, seem only to encapsulate the separateness, conflict and a good vs. bad dualism.

It is this good Vs. Bad dualism that Starkey promotes within his Us vs. Them stance. Philosopher Martin Buber spoke of I/It and I/thou which furthers my point.   I-Thou is a relationship of mutuality and reciprocity, while I-It is a relationship of separateness and detachment. As a result Starkey chooses to see “Black culture” as the problem here, even though the rioters and looters were off all ‘races’. He chooses to see what he wants to, and what he sees taps into the belief he already holds. The other members on the panel Dreda Say Mitchell and the author of Chavs Owen Jones made some great comments offering a diverse and wider perspective to Starkey’s narrow minded view, but were continually interrupted.

Starkey claimed it was the "destructive, nihilistic gangster culture'' which he said ''has become the fashion” to help explain the looters actions. The levels of consumerism has risen and with it greed. How can this “nihilistic gangster culture” be dumped at the door of one specific group? The rich and poor divide is widening, socio and economic factors need to be included as the rise in celebrity culture and so much more. When did being a gangster become synonymous with being black or part of the black culture? “Gangster culture” has been around for decades. Cowboys and Indians, Scarface, The Godfather, The Krays and even The Mitchell Brothers in EastEnders for example, all have glorified violence, wealth, control and power, so isn't this more to do with media glorification than black culture?

Psychologist Ellis (2004) said “When white society ignores their own basic feelings and need, black society have been programmed over centuries to take care of white society needs” (p.4). Alleyne extends this point by expressing “Black people continue to carry the transgenerational and intergenerational pain of their collective past, but also the burden of the other’s hidden shame and their own silent witnessing” (Alleyne, 2005, p.295). ‘Race’, difference and diversity stares us all in the face, yet as individuals we have all been conditioned to avoid it, and so the question of why never gets the attention it deserves. ‘Race’ is hard to look at especially within its historical context, this is an important acknowledgement and for me begins to explain why people with views like Starkey find it easier to place the blame elsewhere.
Lowe (2008) hits the nail on the head by acknowledging ‘race’ as paranoid-schizoid splits. Projective identification created centuries ago, deemed whites as the desirable superior aspect of the self and blacks as the inferior undesirable aspects hence the good vs. bad dualism. Gomez (Cited in Lowe) said “Demons are easily made when we identify with one side of a split’ . . . we are prone to externalize what we cannot bear within, terrified of seeing ourselves like the groups we repudiate”. (2008, p.20).
                                                            
                                                                              1. self                           2.Other  
 Pic: Individual 1. projects or expels ‘internal’ objects from within itself whilst the other ‘internalises’ or has
 them projected ‘into’ them.                                   

It is easier to lay blame with the Other than to turn the same finger to self to look at self. As I said there are many factors involved within the events that took place over a week ago. Starkey’s comments are lazy, offensive and an abuse of his knowledge.

Given that relations between black and white groups over several centuries have been typified by oppression, exploitation and discrimination, how might contemporary relationships be transformed into creative (rather than further damaging) experiences? Referring back to the Chinese Ying and Yang symbol, both the perceived opposite aspects of self need to be embraced.
However Sampson (Cited in Alleyne, 2004) illustrates “The Other [Black person] is an essential presence without whom the protagonist could not be who they claim to be” (Alleyne, 2004, p.50), the risk therefore may be too great. Society, ‘race’, psychotherapy and so much more, as we know it would be revealed to be nothing more than a construct based on false beliefs. So whilst discussion need not come from a place of blame but open mindedness, understanding and acceptance, the risk may be too great to bear. It is this which stops progression.  

This is not about Black culture it is about Blame culture. Blame perpetuates a dysfunctional cycle. To move forward everyone needs to look at all the factors involved and that includes the government and police who are currently finger pointing each other. If they all came together the solution of how to move forward could be found. Those who committed acts of crime need to look at themselves and take responsibility for their actions. Everyone had a choice and in that moment they made theirs. What occurred extended beyond class, and 'race' and it is important that those who comment on these events remind themselves of this.

Share Dokumen di Twitter


Assalamu’alaikum wr. wb.

Untuk trik Twitter kali ini, blog  Horier akan membahas cara Share Dokumen di Twitter. Intinya hampir sama dengan apa yang sudah saya bahas kemarin yaitu Cara Share Musik/Lagu di Twitter. Hanya saja berbeda objek yang di-share dan aplikasi yang digunakan. Bila di Facebook kita sudah dimanjakan dengan berbagai fasilitas seperti Share Foto, Link, Musik, Video, Doc, dll namun di Twitterkita harus membuat trik sendiri.

1.     Buka halaman Twit Doc. Aplikasi ini mengharuskan kalian untuk login terlebih dahulu. Klik tombol Sign in with Twitter.
2.     Isikan Username dan Password, lalu klik Sign In.
3.     Sekarang waktunya untuk membagikan dokumen.
Pertama - tuliskan tweet kalian.
Kedua – upload dengan cara memilih file yang kalian inginkan.
Setelah itu klik tombol “Upload”.
4.     Tugas sudah selesai, untuk hasilnya bisa kalian lihat pada tweet tadi akan terdapat sebuah link yang nantinya akan menuju halaman dokumen yang baru saja di-upload.
5.     Karena aplikasi ini memanfaatkan service Scribd.com, maka jika kalian mengklik link tadi akan dibawa ke website ini. Dari sini, kalian bisa men-download, mencetak atau melihat dalam mode fullscreen.


Ternyata tidak hanya Facebook, Twitter pun juga bisa Share Dokumen. Terima kasih sudah membaca artikel Share Dokumen di Twitter.

Selamat menikmati dan semoga berhasil . . . Alhamdulillah ^^

Download Foto di Facebook via PhotoGrabber


Saat ini, Facebook sudah menjadi media penyimpanan foto. Bagaimana tidak, apalagi para cewek-cewek (narsis) yang sering upload ke facebook sebagai Profil Picture atau untuk di-share kepada teman. Secara otomatis pula, foto tersebut akan masuk ke server facebook. Nah, apakah kalian semua pernah berpikir mungkin suatu hari kalian membutuhkan semua foto-foto tersebut karena foto di komputer hilang atau yang lain?
Untuk mengantisipasi hal tersebut, anda bisa bisa men-download kembali foto-foto yang dulu anda upload. Berbeda halnya jika kalian membuka kembali satu per satu foto di facebook dan melakukan “Save image as”, ini hanya untuk sedikit foto lalu bagaimana jika fotonya banyak?

Ikuti tips berikut :
1.     Download PhotoGrabbber, ekstrak dan jalankan tanpa instalasi. Setelah kalian jalankan, kalian hanya akan menemukan jendela kecil dengan menu tombol “Login”. Klik tombol tersebut.
2.     Sebuah dialog konfirmasi akan muncul, klik “Allow” untuk mengijinkan aplikasi tersebut.
3.     Di web browser akan muncul sebuah jendela baru dengan latar belakang kuning. Copykode yang ada disana kemudian mem-Pasteke dalam program.
4.     Paste kode yang tadi kalian copy ke program PhotoGrabber, kemudian tekan tombol “I want to download”.
5.     Setelah itu, kalian bisa memilih account mana yang ingin fotonya di download. Kalian bisa memilih jenis foto apa saja, apakah foto hasil tag, album, dan sebagainya. Klik tombol “Begin downloaded”.
6.     Langkah terakhir, kalian cukup menentukan di folder mana nantinya foto-foto tersebut akan disimpan. Klik OK dan proses download akan dilakukan. (lama waktu tergantung dari banyaknya foto dan ukurannya)

Catatan : “eits . . . .  Jangan download foto cewek-cewek cantik lho ya, ntar pacar kalian marah tuh”
