Blog helps SEO. I have decided to carry out an new ecommerce site using wordpress. From object-oriented point of view, wordpress has nothing to do with product, it would be hard to extend wordpress with ecommerce function. However, SEO is so important part of business. Anything helps SEO, we do it. We cut budget for ad on newspapers, televisions, etc, but we never cut budget on search engines.

Marketing industry may have over appraised the search engines. Maybe it is a good thing for people like me - with some knowledge of SEO, we make it happen. Website is optimised a little bit, at least in the eye of search engines. But the rankings keep changing and keep worrying bosses, so bosses counting on SEO staff, SEO consultants, SEO tools, SEO budget?

Oh, god, lots of money were stolen by our SEO consultancy.

明眼人一看就知道我这个blog用的是wordpress。说来也让人失望，我还没怎么深入wordpress，wordpress就暴露给我一个缺陷：无法在后台unpublish posts，或者说undo publish。

问了一下google，google说这个功能还在wordpress的wishlist上，真想不通，这么一个常用的unpublish功能，竟然还没开发出来。我只好自己动手了：先发了一个test post，save但不publish，看看数据库里是怎么保存它的。

好了，答案一下就出来了，unpublish其实非常简单：posts表里一条记录就是一个post，找到对应的记录，把post_status从”publish”改为”draft”就可以了。

其实我是不屑于做博客的。原因嘛，很简单，就是博客太简单了。本来简单是好事，但我嫌blog的技术太简单了，想做一点高技术的。一直以来我建一个大而全的站点，一直以来都没有建成。

其实我还不只想建一个站点，而是好几个，全面出击，当然还是一个都没有建成。

这样下去不是个办法啊。有时想到网上讲两句，没个地方落脚。发到mySpace? 发到qq空间? 那更小儿科了。再说把自己原创的精彩内容发到人家的域名上，给他人做嫁衣啊，不干不干。

所以我等不及自己搞大而全工程了，什么容易就先上什么吧。于是有了这个博客。
