Advice to improve your WordPress blog or site.

Part 3 of my pre-season post covers the Flock web browser extensions or addons for the 30 Day Challenge in 2008 followed by a checklist of action items.

Note: While installing addons, Flock prevents popups by displaying the yellowish bar. Just click the “Edit Options” button and enter that site’s URL by clicking the “Allow” button.

Flock Web Browser Extensions and Add-Ons

Download the PDF for the list of extensions and add-ons for the Thirty Day Challenge.

1. Install FasterFox.
2. Install Google Global, an extension that allows viewing of Google search results from anywhere in the world.
3. Add Google Global to the toolbar by right-clicking on the flock toolbar and choosing the Customize option (highlighted in red).
   
   
4. Now click and drag the Google Global to the toolbar.
   
   
5. Add Google Notebook that allows taking notes from within the browser. Highlight content on the browser and add to the Google Notebook.
6. SEO for FireFox is from acclaimed Aaron Wall of SEOBook.com fame. This add on show useful SEO data within the search results page. Just click the icon on the status bar to toggle the tool on or off.
   
   
7. Download and install Search Status which displays the Google PageRank, Alexa rank and Compete ranking anywhere in your browser, along with fast keyword density analyser, keyword/nofollow highlighting, backward/related links, Alexa info and much more. The information appears on the status bar and shows the page rank, alexa ranking and other contextual information.
   
   
8. Add the StumbleUpon extension which allows discovery of web sites based on your interests, learns what you like over time and suggests sites that may be of interest.
9. Although the Flock web browser has Twitter integration, it is better to use TwitterBar extension because it shortens URLs and does not take the poster away from the page.
10. Install the 30 Day challenge toolbar which allows access the links, tools, and everything related to TDC.
