How to Enable HTTPS on ALL Blogspot Domain !!!

Recently when I had logged into my Blogger account I got a notification about the Turning on the HTTPS supports for the Blogger's all blogspot domain. I think most of you have also noticed that notification like me. Like most of you there are several question that had come across in my mind after seeing that notification, such as...

• What is HTTPS ?
• What are the benefits of enabling HTTPS ?

In this post I'm gonna try to share some information that will give us the answer of these question and also gonna show the procedure to enable HTTPS support.

HTTPS Notification:

Before start for searching for answer, first see actually what was in that HTTPS notification. In that notification Blogger.com notified the Blog admin that the visitors would be able to view their domain through encrypted connection, while having all the links and bookmarks working. But the HTTPS availability supports will be disappeared. Have a look at the Notification image below...

Currently this HTTPS support is only available for the Blogspot domain. And custom domain user like me will have to wait for a while to have HTTPS support. Because till this post is published the HTTPS supports is not available for the Custom Domian users on Blogger platform.


What is HTTPS:

Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is the a secure version of HTTP. That means the data that transferred between the user and server is now encrypted and protected from access or hacking from unwanted third parties.


Benefits of Enabling HTTPS: There are three main benefits to using HTTPS instead of HTTP to access your blog:

• It helps check that your visitors open the correct website and aren’t being redirected to a malicious site.
• It helps detect if an attacker tries to change any data sent from Blogger to the visitor.
• It adds security measures that make it harder for other people to listen to your visitors’ conversations, track their activities, or steal their information.
• And most interesting thing is, you are getting this HTTPS support without any cost, it is completely FREE!!

HTTPS is fundamental to internet security; it protects the integrity and confidentiality of data sent between websites and visitors' browsers. HTTPS enabled blog will get free SSL certificate which means that the site that you are visiting is secured. Beside that it will leave positive impact on search engine optimization (SEO). Google always gives higher importance on HTTPS than HTTP. So it ensure the higher ratting for your site.

Warning: Please be aware that mixed content may cause some of your blog's functionality not to work in the HTTPS version. Mixed content is often caused by incompatible templates, gadgets, or post content. While Blogger proactively fixing most of these errors, some of them can only be fixed by the blog authors.

• Solution: How to Fix Mixed Content Errors in Blogger Blogs

How to Enable HTTPS on Blogger:

• First Login to Your Blogger Account.
• Then go to Settings > Basics > HTTPS Redirects 
• Now from the HTTPS Redirects Dropdown, select Yes
• Finally Save the settings.

Later if you disable HTTPS redirect, visitors have two options for viewing your blog:

• View the unencrypted version of your blog at http://techie-asif.blogspot.com

InFoLinks - Excellent Website Monetization Media!

Previously I had published several post on website/blog monetization media. And all those media is very good alternative of AdSense. If you had missed those posts or if you'r site does not have AdSense and trying to find alternative of AdSense, then you can try them.

Monetize Your Site By...

• ShaheenAds (PPI) 

• 360 Adds! (PPI)

• Yllix Media!

Today I have come-up with another excellent website/blog monetization media. It is InFoLinks Media. InFoLinks is an excellent advertising media which is something different from the others. Because where the other site mostly monetize site by banner ads, but by InFoLinks you can monetize your site's Text also. And most of the other site doesn't have this special type of monetization format. Okay, let's integrate InFoLinks ads in a site.


Eligibility Criteria to Qualify for InFoLinks:

InFoLinks platform is open to any online publisher, big or small. And there no minimum requirements for page views or visitors. That means, if you have a website or blog with whatever visitors it has you're eligible to monetize your site with InFoLinks. So, what you are waiting for, join and start earning...

Monetizing  a Site by InFoLinks:

• First click this link to Join InFoLinks

• Then complete form with requires information like...

• Your Website/Blog URL (ie. www.ittimesbd.com) 

• Your Full Name.

• Your Email Address.

• Enter the Captcha code and click on Join.

That's it, Straight a way  you will get the option to integrate your site with InFoLinks. You will get 5 different option/platform to integrate - JavaScript, WordPress, Blogger, Drupal, and Joomla. I will  recommend you to choose JavaScript. Here you will get a code. Just Copy & paste the code right before the closing </body> tag of your site. You can also do this integration latter from Integration menu.

Integrate with Blogger Platform: If your are blogging on Blogger platform then follow the steps below to add the JavaScript to your blog...

• First Sign Into Your Blogger Account and go to Dashboard.

• Then go to Template >> Edit HTML and you will land on the HTML page of your blog.

• Here find </body> tag and Paste the JavaScript code just before it.

• Finally click on Save Template button.

The ads will not be shown on your site just after placing the code. Because after completing the signup and integration process then InFoLinks team will review your application within 48 hours. Once your application is approved, ads will start to show automatically and you will also be able to customize InFoLinks Ads.

Customizing InfoLinks Ads:

You can customize the available ad units of InFoLinks according to your site's design and color. Currently there are Five different ad format available in InFoLinks. Click on Customize menu and you will get these ad format. I'm writing brief description about these below...

• InText Ads: This is the most popular ad format for what you will love to use InFoLinks ads on your site. InFoLinks algorithm scans your website pages to carefully select the most relevant keywords and show ads on them. You can show maximum 12 InText ads per page of your site. Choose the Link Style and Link color according to your site design.

• InFold Ads: This is one of the most effective InFoLink Ad format. Actually it is a proven revenue booster. InFold shows ads at the bottom of the PC screen of your page. It only appear when needed, introducing itself to visitors with an unobtrusive overlay ad. A few seconds after it appears, it quietly shrinks down to a headline. But as this format disturbs the visitors you need to think twice before placing it. 

• InTag Ads: This is one of the best ad format. Don't hesitate about placing this format, because it will never disturb your visitors. InTag recognizes the most valuable keywords within your content and display them line tag cloud. You can show one or two line ads and also choose the ad unit color.

• InFrame Ads: Though this ad format will help you to increase earnings. But it will disturb your visitors very much also. It will display pop-out banner ads at the both side of your site, as result your visitors will definitely feel disturb buy this. On the other hand you can't customize the Ads behavior. So, it is better you should skip this ad format.

• InScreen Ads: This is the most recent addition in the InFoLinks ad format. I don't have any idea about the result of this ad format. If you enable this ad format a full page layer ads will be shown. You can choose the Ad Trigger - Entrance,  Internal Pages and  Exit. And also can customize the color.

After customizing the ad formats make sure Turn On and Apply option is marked and finally click on Save button.

• Payment Method: You will receive your payments via PayPal, Bank Wire, eCheck, Western Union, ACH (only for U.S. bank accounts) or Payoneer.

I can assure you that you will be very much satisfied of your earning with InFoLinks. In case of any problem don't hesitate to leave your valuable comment.

So, you can easily imagine that how important BackLinks for a site. By the way BackLinks is also effective trick to drive traffics to a site.


Backlinks, also known as incoming links, inbound links, in-links, and inward links, are incoming links to a website or web page. To define BackLink - The link of your site which is linked with another site is called BackKink. And creating BackLink is placing your site links on other site's - Comments, Guest Posting or Link Submit. There are several way you can create BackLinks. I have discussed 4 easy way below...

• Commenting: This is the most common way to create BackLinks. Just comment on other website, blog, forum etc with your site's link. Make sure your comment is relevant, useful and attractive. Use anchor text HTML code to add your links to your comments.

If you want to create anchor text you will have to use specific code. There are two types of codes to create anchor text - HTML anchor text and BB code anchor text. HTML anchor text code used in HTML sites/blog and BB code anchor text is used in Forum comment.


Creating HTML Anchor Text:

If your post has multiple images, they will appear as thumbnails along the bottom.But sometimes you may have wanted to change the default design of blogger image light-box. If so, then you are in the wright post. In this post I am gonna show how to customize blogger image light box.

Above image is the example of the default Blogger Image Light-box. If you don't like this design then you can customize it on your own taste. The CSS code that I am sharing, by adding it to your blog you will be able to change the entire look of the modal window: Background Color, Border of the Image, The Bar showing the thumbnail, Text within it, Close button and the transparency. All you have to do is to overwrite the default design and change it with yours. Lets see how to do the trick.

Warning: Before doing any kind of customization on your site's HTML page, I will recommend you to backup your site Template. To know more about Template backup Read This Post.

• First Sign into your Blogger Account and go to Dashboard.
• Then click on Template and then click on Edit HTML button. You will land on the HTML page.
• Here in the HTML page find </head> tag and Paste the following code just Above it.

 .CSS_LIGHTBOX_BG_MASK {  
 background-color: #ffffff !important;  
 background-image: url(image-url-address) !important;  
 opacity: 0.8 !important;  
 filter: alpha(opacity=90) !important;  
 }  
 /* Images Border */  
 .CSS_LIGHTBOX_SCALED_IMAGE_IMG {  
 outline: 0px solid #fff !important;  
 -webkit-border-radius: 10px;  
 -moz-border-radius: 10px;  
 border-radius: 10px;  
 -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #000000;  
 -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #000000;  
 box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #000000;

 }  
 /* Index Info (number of images) */  
 .CSS_LIGHTBOX_INDEX_INFO {

Customization: The blue Text explains to which Part the code belongs to. And you can modify the area of the lightbox from that part.
