I'm not sure what CB hoplinks are?? However, the more links from the widest variety of places the better ... as long as the links aren't from bad neighborhoods. If you were banned from Google, you can usually go into Google Webmaster Tools and submit a reinclusion request.

This is really funny.

Mark thread as being a waste of time is essentially what down voting the first post in a thread does. Then, when skimming the list of threads, just don't go into any of them that are indicating down votes.

I don't think it's a matter of a greater percentage of people screwing up as much as it is just more posts being made in general. However, I can definitely understand the frustration. I went ahead and made it so that members must have either a reputation of at least …

Hi, I have remained silent in this thread up until now, as whenever issues of this type are emailed to me, I reply back stating our policy. However, I wanted to allow other members of our community to respond back without you feeling as if they were coached by me …

Hmm ... Really? Please definite "lately" ... Last week? Last month? Last couple of months?? If there is a problem with our mail server, it would help to debug the issue if we had a rough timeline of how long the problem has been occurring. This way we can sync …

[I]> However, the most applicable means of identifying the thief will be the integrated use of the iPhone camera into the security measures. A password prompt will be sent to the device once it has been deemed unauthorized, which after a certain number of failed attempts, snaps a flashless, noiseless …

Facebook is great for a social media campaign to drive traffic, but it isn't going to give you the backlinks you need to increase your natural SEO rankings.

Thank you for the heads up.

Good, unique content, that is informative and frequently updated. And links to your site from other sites around the web.

> There are 10 kind of people, those who know binary and those who doesn't That one used to be good but soooooo many people use it now. ThinkGeek.com even sells it on shirts.

If you're using 2000/XP, right click on your desktop and go to "Properties". Click the "Settings" tab and then the "Advanced" button. Is there a tab for your video card? Sometimes it has settings such as this there. Otherwise, click the "Monitor" tab. What monitor does it say you're using? …

Use an automatic link directory, such as the one that DaniWeb has. It's hands off, no work for you, and people can submit links instantaneously for instant gratification, and it even periodically does linkback checks on the sites.

I don't think that there is a set number. It depends on so many factors, such as the length of the page and how many internal links you have on the page. Eight links to various references scattered within a long article are better than four links in a page …

After the first post and above the quick reply boxes have worked the best for me. To show AdSense after the first post, edit the POSTBIT or POSTBIT_LEGACY template - at the very bottom add: [html]<if condition="$post[postcount]==1">ADSENSE HERE</if>[/html] Edit the SHOWTHREAD template and put AdSense above the Quick Reply.

Hi, I attended a Google AdSense seminar last week where one of the tips they gave was to frequently check the Allow & Block ads tab to be able to see a selection of all the creatives that have appeared on my site. However, when I click to go to …

I run one of each here (as you can see) and I think it works very well. The box is my best performing followed by the leaderboard.

Hello there :)

I don't know what neobux is. However, there are a lot of free script resources on the web. Try a google search or a repository such as HotScripts.

If you want to show different content to different people depending on where they are located, here is what you need to do: Create multiple websites, [url]www.hotel.com[/url], [url]www.hotel.fr[/url], [url]www.hotel.in[/url], etc ... Put the content you want that country to see on each individual website. Then, create an account with Google …

You would want to alter the links to have the "nofollow" attribute. So that the link html code looks like: <a href="http://www.site.com" rel="nofollow">Link Text</a> However, even the nofollow attribute has been proven to pass link juice. If you want Google to pretend the sponsor links don't exist, remove them. If …

Me? Or any moderator with the ability to delete posts or ban a user?

As canadafred specified, they are both two different black hat SEO techniques designed to drive traffic from the search engines.

Hi, Try posting in our Site Feedback forum within the Business Exchange section and note that you are specifically looking for feedback from an seo perspective.

Eek, I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm going to repeat what the above posters asked, which is whether or not you recently made any changes AT ALL? Even things you would not have associated with your rankings. A dramatic website makeover? Changes to the homepage? Dramatic change to page …

Thank you for posting this clarification.

While it's just the opposite of what you asked for, I can't help but send you to [url="http://www2.latech.edu/~acm/HelloWorld.shtml"]http://www2.latech.edu/~acm/HelloWorld.shtml[/url]

In theory, good idea. In practice ... perhaps there is a reason there exists so much doubt about how large communities can work together to produce great development projects. haha. It seems like getting so many people on the same page and working together on a project in their spare …

Oh wow. Congrats Scribbller ... do you know how long it took daniweb to get 100 members?! ;) In any case, you'd be surprised how successful forum-only sites could be! Just check out webhostingtalk.com as an example. DaniWeb started as forums-only, and for the most part, we still are. At …

Good, unique content, updated fresh, that other people are naturally going to want to link to.

Are you using an ad blocker? (such as the Chrome ad blocker??)

I am one of those odd people who thinks that the value of a business has much less to do with how much is currently being made and much more to do with future potential and what the new buyer can do to it with little effort. For example, a …

As far as I know, whenever you create a username you can access your profile at facebook.com/username. This doesn't work for groups or fan pages though. Just member profiles.

When you configure the firewall section of the redhat setup, you're setting up the firewall configuration files with your settings. Gnome and KDE also come with software to edit this same file. Take a look at the file manually (ipchains) and see what the settings are. Afterall, everything else is …

A lot of SEOs have been saying lately that seochat isn't nearly as good as it used to be. Other sites that feature SEO (which I frequent, actually) include [url="http://www.digitalpoint.com"]www.digitalpoint.com[/url], [url="http://www.webmasterworld.com"]www.webmasterworld.com[/url], [url="http://www.sitepointforums.com"]www.sitepointforums.com[/url]. I would really check out the list of forums at the SEO Round Table ([url="http://www.seroundtable.com/forums.html"]http://www.seroundtable.com/forums.html[/url]) It gives a …

Please let me know what specifically you do that makes it not work.

I put ZERO weight into the page rank number that Google's toolbar spits out at you. It's entirely inaccurate. However, as SEOs we still care about google's internal pagerank algorithm. However, we have no clue where we actually rank in it ;)

Google's algorithm is based on the concept that when other sites link to your webpage, that particular page probably has some good content and has something good to say since all these other sites think it's important enough to link to. Therefore, getting backlinks (links to your site) is very …

HUH?? I have no clue what you are talking about.

FeedBurner provides all of the extra statistics and also gives you the option to use AdSense for Feeds to make money through your RSS feeds. Unless they are well syndicated, it probably won't be a whole lot of revenue. But it's an option.

I put no weight in hwo many backlinks Google tells me that I have. It fluctuates all the time and at one point we went from 8 million down to 1 million, and yet our traffic from Google significantly increased. Definitely use Google Webmaster Tools, and evaluate the information it …

You don't have to pay to get into Yahoo. Yahoo will typically send you less traffic than Google because the Yahoo search engine receives less traffic than Google, so there are fewer people to send. However, if you're not receiving a single visitor, then you may be blacklisted or just …

Thank you for that link :)

There are a handful of keyword research tools although I can't think of any offhand. A google search should do the trick.

Consider Google Voice so you won't have to give out your real phone number.

It's possible that 1&1 uses a subdomain on the initial-website.co.uk domain for all new sites that haven't yet propagated over to their own domains. If it is not a brand new site (with a very recently registered domain name) then I would contact 1&1.

Are you noticing a significant decrease in traffic as well?

I have no clue what Weebly is, sorry??
