| | Or if you want a more authoritative page on PageRank, you can hear it from the "father of search himself, [URL="http://searchengineland.com/070426-011828.php"]Danny Sullivan[/URL]. In any event, with regards to your question, as stymiee said, higher PageRank pages get crawled more often, but also, if you update your content infrequently, it will … |
| | Meta Keywords really have no bearing on rankings nowadays. That's because people used to use them so often to spam the search engines that the algorithm no longer focuses on keywords. That said, it doesn't hurt to have a few, but don't exceed about 170 characters or so. |
 | What do you prefer? Do you find [URL="http://mashable.com/2007/11/12/comscore-facebook-traffic-flattening-myspace-hits-record/"]these results[/URL] interesting?  |
| | If you don't know anything about the microblogging phenomenon called [URL="http://twitter.com"]Twitter[/URL], it's about time you started. The idea behind microblogging is that you summarize your thoughts in 140 characters or less -- you're actually limited to the space available. Blogs with 250 word minimums need not apply. Twitter has taken … |
| | As I said before, I'm a huge gadget girl. I had the opportunity earlier this month to test out the very cool [URL="http://www.jawbone.com"]Jawbone[/URL] bluetooth headset for my Treo 755p. I have to say that I'm very picky about my headsets and like making the right investment for something that may … |
| | I don't know if you were a big gamer back in the 80s, but one of the best games of all time was BOLO built for the Apple II platform. In case you don't know, it's a shootout type game. You're a ship and you're trying to kill the alien … |
| | My infatuation about the new [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry1968.html"]Macbook Air[/URL] is not ending just yet. In fact, the [URL="http://blogs.computerworld.com/the_new_macbook_pros_are_coming"]ComputerWorld blog[/URL] has news -- hopefully insider scoop -- about what I'm dreaming about. Author Seth Weintraub says that the reason for the Macbook Pro delay (that is, why they weren't announced last week at …  |
| | While I'm not yet a [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry1968.html"]Mac convert[/URL], I've always been an iPod convert. I bought my first iPod in September of 2003 and can't say I complained. Reminiscing, it was a 40GB 3rd generation that I paid $475 for on eBay. It wasn't cheap, and I was fresh out of … |
| | So, MacWorld finally came and went. For months, I've anticipated this event. After Apple released [URL="http://www.apple.com/macosx/"]Leopard[/URL] in November, I had my eyes set on moving over to the Mac world. But without any guarantees that Apple would preinstall Leopard on existing laptops in their inventory and after hearing about numerous …  |
| | Google had a right, but they did make some judgment mistakes when killing the PageRank of many blogs that had not ever sold links. Personally, I've seen many people hit by this and it is bothersome. A few of them clearly don't sell links but it looks like Google got …  |
| | Are you involved in social media at all? When I refer to this, I mean blogs, social news and bookmarking sites (Digg, Reddit, del.icio.us, StumbleUpon), and other niche communities. What do you think about their value for marketing? Do you find any better than others? I'd love to hear your … |
| | What kind of sitemaps? Are you talking about the HTML file or the XML file that is read by Google itself? Either way, it helps -- it ensures that your content is being spidered or at least that the search engines are aware of it so that your content does … |
| | How many people here have a blog? How do you monetize it? I've seen some people get a full living off of blogging -- and others are not as successful. If you make SOME money, what methods do you use? Text links? Amazon? What's your recipe? :) |
| | No, that doesn't tell you if your site has been crawled. All those tell you if your site has been [B]indexed[/B]. Here's a tool that will tell you if your site has been crawled: [url]https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/sitestatus[/url] If it works, you'll see something like this: "Googlebot last successfully accessed your home page … |
| | First of all, what does your forum offer? If it's a computer forum, for example, check out computer sites and start acquainting yourself with the community. Then tell them that you have a forum and are looking for readers. If you have a forum about TV shows, acquaint yourself with … |
| | [QUOTE=PiticStyle;465617]Why you dont try to customize your ADS with you forum design?[/QUOTE] You need to be careful about that though. If you put ads near images, for example, or where it's misleading and it begs for clicks, you can get banned from AdSense. But yes, if it's flowing with text, …  |
| | Great post, Jody. It's incredibly true, too. I wrote a blog post a few months ago about [URL="http://www.10e20.com/blog/2007/03/01/analytics-on-the-cheap-six-free-stats-packages-for-the-startup-or-small-business-owner/"]some great analytics packages[/URL] that you can start with. Google Analytics really has it all, but if you want to get a little more out of analysis, you could try other packages. Microsoft …  |
| | Actually, no, SEO is about optimizing your site, but it's a subset of SEM (search engine marketing) which includes anything from link building to social media efforts and everything in between. SEO is essentially just editing your page titles, having good navigation, etc. But SEO is not the only thing …  |
 | The rumored sandbox says approximately 9 months. That can vary give or take a few months depending on inbound links and popularity. |
| | This may help: [URL="http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=6114"]How does Google detect invalid clicks?[/URL] They use a combination of algorithmic tracking and human tracking to observe abnormalities in clicks. But even so, it is advisable to monitor your own website statistics to ensure that nothing abnormal is happening. Do not try to increase clicks -- … |
| | Re: DMOZ Project? It definitely helps a bit to be listed in DMOZ -- though theres no guarantee that it will increase your rankings. However, DMOZ is a pretty authoritative directory and it does help if you get accepted.  |
| | maksimus2000, that has nothing to do with the question. |
| | Google will serve the duplicate page. It's just a matter of Google serving the right page that you want the users to see. If you don't think the page Google provides is ideal, delete it. :) |
| | Re: Dmoz Arshad: dmoz.org. Just go to their site and follow the submission instructions. At the end of the day, dmoz.org is highly overrated. Not many people regard them as highly as they used to before. |
| | Re: PHP or ASP Wow, talk about topic hijacking. I was ready to answer the PHP/ASP question but see that the question is completely different. The correct term, nsrajesh, is "sandboxed." Typically, this is a 9-month period (it varies, though) where you don't get indexed because of the trust that Google has to place … |
| | Are you sure you're "banned" on MSN? In the live.com query box, type site:yourdomain.com and see if it shows up. |
| | I'm not an incredibly big fan of JavaScript, but when looking at DaniWeb, it really doesn't seem to detract from the user experience at all. In fact, I think the customizations have worked for the best here. There's a lot of cool feature sets built on top of the platform … |
| | Re: an adsense Well that's the thing. You're opening a blog that promotes piracy. Google has terms of service that prohibit you from sharing warez or anything illegal. If you follow their terms and provide relevant and interesting content, you'll be accepted to the program. If you're doing something that clearly is illegal, … |
| | Re: Google Position Backlinks are critical. And yes, having content means that people will link to you whether you ask them or not. Without a doubt, build some content. Start a blog. In fact, you can share stuff about Black Friday or talk about how saving money helps. This all relates to your …  |
