Joining EDV.VN Development Team

May 7, 2008

Today is the day I will pack up my stuff and go to Hanoi to join the development team of San Thuong Mai Dien Tu edv.vn (Dai Viet e-Commerce), a project of Dai Viet Vision, and a brother of Van Hoa Viet Nam. Here is the story of how I met the team.

Embarrassing Encounter

I've came to know Dai Viet Vision Join Stock Company since 20 April 2008. That day, I was in Hanoi and received a call from my father asking me to go to a conference. This is how I met Dai Viet Vision's owners and attracted with the company. And this is how I decided to join the force.

Some SEO Tweaks on 8 Mar 2008

March 8, 2008

I've made a few more changes. This times it's especially for SEO purpose.

Blog Title

I change my blog name from 'Webmaster Binh Nguyen's Blog | Binh.name' to 'SEO Web Designer Binh Nguyen'.

This title more accurately describes my position. Firstly 'webmaster' doesn't need to have strong programming skills. Secondly, although I'm more a web developer (more coding) than a web designer (more designing) but people don't use the term web developer as often as web designer.

Another point to be noticed is that I practice more SEO design than Graphic design. That's why now I choose SEO Web Designer.

The Future of Binh dot Name

January 23, 2008

I've been busy these few days and haven't post as many useful posts as I should. My apologies for that. I would like to restate a few reasons here and I hope to receive your suggestions. The reasons are:

1. This blog is being redesigned.
2. New sub domains or domains are coming up.
3. The URL structure is not finalized.

If you are kind-hearted, knowledgeable and give me suggestions, I will have rewards for you too. Don't worry, the minimum I could give you are some good keyword back links to your site from my PR3 blog. I'm not rich now so my pocket money is limited. I can make some nice award if what you give change my life.

What type of Blogger are we?

November 22, 2007

I am currently in very deep thinking and wondering how to structure my blog(s). The problem being that I have too much to share while the current structure is holding me down too much.

What do I mean?

I want to share my personal thoughts as well as professional thoughts. Those thoughts often come quickly and I may forget it later on. So I would like to post it as fast as I can to keep it and share with others. But then... people hate personal stuff mixed in a professional blog, and I want mine to be professional niche blog.

Major Blog Building Considerations

November 16, 2007

At this time I'm pretty lazy at designing and coding things. I've been stumbled on the Blog World, which give me the stronger will to live (blogging). I want to write more and more. However it's time to really do some serious decisions.

I started posting my blog entries with WordPress because I felt that's a necessary initiative. However, I strongly need to consider few things.

Website structure

The biggest issue I'm having is the website structure. I'm still wondering whether

1. putting niche topics on separate subdomains, and so using WordPress MU to power my site,
