Bluetooth: Not Available - The Fullproof Fix!

I have this MacBook 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo which is a beautiful little product by Apple. And yesterday I spoilt myself with the Apple Mighty Mouse. Excited to start using it I started the process of pairing the mouse to the Macbook.However the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar greyed out with a zig-zag line through it. When I clicked on it, it stated:

"Bluetooth: Not Available"

So being the avid Mac fan, I ventured down the path of trying to figure out the problem:

1. Repaired Disk Permissions
2. Updated the Firmware
3. Reset the PRAM
4. Reset the System Management Controller (SMC)
5. Deleted the com.appleBluetooth preference from the Preferences folder
6. Unplugged all other USB devises
7. Started to MacBook without the battery
8. Even rewired the Bluetooth connection wire to go above the Optical Drive for the heat issue

All these solutions were provided from posts, forums and blogs relating to this "Bluetooth: Not Available" issue (And it was quite extensive!). 3 hours later and much frustration the Bluetooth was still NOT working.

Below is my Fullproof fix for this issue:

1. Go down to your local computer store and get a R199 ($25) Bluetooth Adaptor
2. Plug it into your computer
3. Voila

"Bluethooth: On"

Using hidden keywords to increase SEO

Bad idea!

These pages are visible only to a search crawler and contain keywords hidden within the body of a web page, sometimes in a small font and in a colour that perfectly matches the websites background.

If you have a website and it contains hidden pages, it's just a matter of time before the crawler figures out that the content is part of a hidden SEO strategy, and once that's determined by the crawler, your site ranking will drop drastically.

Using Flash and its effect on SEO

Flash is a nightmare with it comes to SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Although Flash is very cool and visually pleasing, it can stop a web crawler in its tracks, and once it is stopped, the crawler won't resume indexing your site. Instead, it will simply move on to the next website on its list.

The easiest way to avoid Flash problems is to simply not use it. If, despite all this, your client needs to implement it in their website, then you can code the Flash in HTML and an option can be added to test for the ability to see Flash before it is executed.

There is some debate about whether this is acceptable SEO practice, so before you implement this strategy to improve SEO take some time to research the method.
