 | Personally I don't see the benefit of directory submissions nowadays. It's always important to gain backlinks, but I would focus on getting links from quality, relevant pages across the web. Not just listings in free-for-all directories.  |
| | I don't think link wheels work anymore. The concept was that a bunch of sites each link to each other, with the "circle" being big enough that Google doesn't catch on. But they know ;) Ooooh they know ;) |

| | Re: how to start PPC You need a credit card. As vanessa suggests, I would start out with Google AdWords. It's powerful and can get complicated, but it also offers a starting point of only a penny a click, and new users get $50 free to start out with. Plus, it's pretty much the de … |

| | Continue to do what you're doing. Don't give up. Work on forming relationships with other sites in your industry. Promote your RSS feeds as a means of getting other relevant sites to syndicate your content (Just titles/blurbs, not full content). |

| | Hi Phil, Unfortunately I have absolutely no experience at all with Website Optimizer, so I probably can't be of much help. However, I noticed that [url]http://secure.ultracart.com[/url] automatically redirects to [url]https://secure.ultracart.com[/url]. I'm wondering if the cross-domain thing doesn't work when switching from the http protocol to https? Have you tried to … |
 | Re: New Sticky Full sympathy because our site search feature always sucked and returned 0 results most of the time. But we're using google search now, and the results rae pretty good. It obviously completely makes sense that people would rather post and wait hours for a response than do a search and …  |
| | Yes, it's legal, because if the job sites didn't want to allow it, they wouldn't be providing RSS feeds to use. However, mashup sites like these (sites that aggregate multiple RSS feeds) tend to not do so well in the search engines, and even worse off since the Google Panda … |
| | Yeah it shouldn't be off by more than 15 minutes for new items, instant for existing items. |
| | The actual link text that is used to hyperlink to a different page. For example, for the link [url=http://www.google.com]Best Search Engine Ever[/url], the anchor text is "best search engine ever", and the URL points to google.com. The concept is that because I am using that anchor text to link to …  |

| | Re: cloaking??? Cloaking is when a single page serves one thing to a website visitor and something completely different to a search engine bot. For example, the website visitor might see the way you want the page to look, but the bot might see something that is completely tailored for optimal SEO, … |
| | I have found that Google sometimes completely rewrites my title tags! Not just shortens them, but often completely rewrites them. It's strange, but not something we have much control over. |
| | Your online reputation can be a very, very powerful thing. Make it good. |
| | Numerous SEO publications are reporting that Google has decided to hide keywords from referral information for everyone logged into their Google account when they perform a search. What this means is that sites will no longer know what keywords were typed in to land at the resulting page. It's really … |
| | Link laundering sites are a blackhat technique in which a lot of sites owned by the same webmaster are all designed to link out to lots of other sites, in exchange for those sites to all be linking back to the single high quality site also owned by the webmaster. … |
 | Re: PayPal Quiz You can set up a survey at SurveyMonkey.com ... They're good for that. Not so sure how to integrate that with PayPal though. |
| | Breadcrumb navigation is pretty much standardized nowadays. |
| | I believe they are not a network but instead simply a company which produces DART, an ad server. In other words, as a publisher, you would pay them for their DART service to serve advertising you sell yourself. |

| | Re: Link wheel? This question has been asked about 10 times over the past week. [url]http://www.daniweb.com/internet-marketing/search-engine-optimization/threads/383068[/url] |
| | I went ahead and renamed the 'Contribute News Stories' forum to the 'Contribute Editorial' forum because that is specifically its purpose, and it can work just as well with tutorials as with news stories. [url]http://www.daniweb.com/community-center/contribute-editorial/178[/url] Anything that you post in there can only be seen by yourself as well as … |
| | You can use our thread subscription feature. You can create multiple subscription folders and subscribe to various threads in each folder, as a way of grouping them. Also, you can make use of the Threads I've Started link at the bottom of every page. |
| | Re: Drupal. It was a CMS (content management system) written in PHP. I haven't seen people use it in years. |
| | Sorry I have taken so long to make my way into this thread. I actually sorta like the idea of having pretty charts and graphs, mostly because I've been doing so much in advertising and marketing lately. I've been swayed to the dark side. If I can come up with … |

| | Since switching to this design, the number of new threads posted daily has decreased by 75%. New posts, new registrations, and traffic has remained consistant. Is the "new thread" button really hard to locate? Confusing? What is wrong?  |
| | Each individual page should only target one or two keywords. The keywords shouldn't be repeated in an unnatural way. They should be built naturally into the content. |
| | I don't understand how Davey is the only person who responded to this question referencing Star Trek.  |

 | Why would we upload tutorials to Github and then have moderators manage them there? Why not just post the tutorials straight onto DaniWeb? |
