You know that attention spans are quickly becoming even shorter. When people watch movies and television, go shopping, browse for books, and surf the web, they make up their minds in seconds—sometimes to their detriment, true, but that doesn't matter in cyberspace. You can't track down every person who visits your site, delivers the Blink Test, and decides that you've failed. All you can do is prevent it from happening.

The Blink Test refers to the approximately 0.02 seconds it takes for a person to decide if something interests them enough. It applies to books, shows, movies, and especially to websites, blogs, online shops, articles, and even social media sites. Some marketers claim that you have a larger window of 3-5 seconds to impress; researchers maintain that, at other times, you have only 445ms, mere milliseconds to make a first impression. As a host, a business, a writer, a blogger, or a web designer, you have to make those seconds work for you. Your first impression has to dazzle.
The rich often get a bad reputation for forgetting about the poor and living lavish lifestyles. However, there are many wealthy families who find time and money to help others. Sometimes, it is families who have a long tradition of both wealth and philanthropy. Other times, struggling business people have successfully found the American dream and want to ensure that others have the same opportunities as they do. Through using their money for good, these individuals and families inspire others.
Famously, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett give away a lot of their fortune to help others. In fact, in 2010 they set up a challenge to other billionaires to give away a significant portion of their profits. Although many have answered the challenge, there are many who did not even need to be challenged. Giving to the less fortunate is a simple, obvious step for them.

WordPress is the best blogging platform out there and with each new version, it gets better and better, but one thing that hasn’t been fixed for ages is – the default search system.
If you have spent some time playing with WordPress, then you know the default search is far from perfect. The default search system of WordPress doesn’t perform well, because it ranks results based on the date and keywords presented in the post.
