Edit Chinese text in HTML file

Recently I needed to help a friend develop a website in Chinese, and I didn't have the right tools.

I am used to notepad++ to edit my html files but I found that it doesn't support Chinese characters.

After searching high and low, I have finally found SeaMonkey. SeaMonkey is a Web-browser, advanced e-mail and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editing made simple -- all your Internet needs in one application.

You probably don't need all of them, and you can opt out during the installation. Its free, and it works for me.

Automate Social Bookmarking

Recently, a friend introduced me to social bookmarking as a form of internet marketing exercise.

One of the factors that Google ranks pages during a search is by the number of backlinks.

Each bookmark you post then becomes a backlink to your website, and this subsequently improves your website's ranking during a search.

To make things easier, there are some tools that can help to automate this process, as you are likely to be submitting the same content to different social bookmarking websites.

The sites below offer free services to help you automate social bookmarking. Tools that an internet marketeer should not be without.
