Umm ... what do you want it to do? ;)

I'm such an IE fan it isn't even funny :) How old are your kid siblings, Oalee?

The thread about abusing powers/computer knowledge??

Generally, you don't make as much with affiliate (CPA) programs as you do with banner ad networks (such as FastClick, ValueClick, Burst!Media, Tribal Fusion, MaxOnline, Casale Media, and so on and so forth) that pay on a CPM or CPC basis. The problem with the ad networks is generally you …

PhotoPost is pretty popular with many online communities, as it integrates itself with vBulletin and phpBB ... [url="http://www.photopost.com/"]http://www.photopost.com/[/url]

Nonono, bulk e-mail is definitely not a good idea. Many people mistakingly feel that if they can get their word out to the masses, people will visit their site. The problem is that most people feel that businesses who resort to spamming tactics to generate traffic almost always aren't businesses …

Word of mouth, because it's a whole lot cheaper ;) In all honesty, both are equally important. For company branding, and to get the word out there, you want to go with paid advertising in the form of PPC text links as well as banners. But any amount of advertising …

I think JTroopSoldier is referring to [url="http://adwords.google.com"]http://adwords.google.com[/url] - indeed, they're very good for targeted ad campaigns.

A very general rule of thumb is to double or triple a site's annual revenue, and use that as a general ballpark area. Then, take into consideration what is being offered (i.e. custom design, custom scripts, keyword-rich domain name, how much branding you've done on the site, whether it has …

And if you run into snags on the way, we're here to help. :) I don't think it is too hard to set up a default out of the box vBulletin installation. The trick is then in driving traffic, customizing it, and offering something unique!

What are some tips to increase AdSense CTR? So far, I'm trying to integrate the ads into the content, and I know that the box ads perform the best. What else can I do?

[b]Declaring Objects[/b] When one works with classes, each instance of the class which is defined is known as an object. C++ is an extremely object oriented language (perhaps not so much so as Java, however). In OOP, or Object Oriented Programming, one can easily perform multiple tasks on objects which …

I just noticed that Google has gone back and readjusted all of their reports and figures for the month of February. A few dollars and cents were added to each day of my AdWords account. Along the same lines, I earned a few more dollars and cents via my AdSense …

Some of you may have noticed the color changes made to DaniWeb just recently. The goal of this was to help navigation by giving each section its own color - almost like making mini-sites out of DaniWeb. Something else was done to promote this same idea. The "Today's Posts" link …

Google has a new program going ... [url="http://www.google.com/referral/"]http://www.google.com/referral/[/url] It's an affiliate program in which they pay $20 CPA for anyone you refer to AdSense / AdWords. Unfortunately, it's currently - of course! - in beta, which means it's by invitation only. Has anyone been one of the privileged few to …

I'm already in the ODP and I get a good amount of traffic from Google. I'm also in Yahoo! search. However, I'm not currently listed in the Yahoo! directory. Is it worth it to pay the annual $300 fee to be listed? How much traffic will it get me? Is …

I used to use ValueClick, but I was incredibly disappointed by their low quality of advertisers. (Nearly as bad as FastClick's) In addition, all ads were run-of-network (untargeted) and mostly CPC, so there was very little revenue generated. Recovering from the holiday season and a bit strapped for cash, I …

The change was made in response to this threead: [thread]18901[/thread]

It will wipe out all of your personal files, customized settings, and software you have installed. It will be a fresh installation of Windows XP as if you had just bought your computer. Are you sure this is something you need to do? What errors are you getting that prompted …

They don't seem too professionally designed to me - which basically means no real company backing. You say Google got into the game? How so? Personally, I think the best these can do are be Xanga type sites. I don't think they'll ever get enough pull to reach the professional …

I can't see any further replies to this thread being at all constructive. Thread locked.

Using Google's (non-API) version is incredibly easy to implement and you get money when searchers click on sponsored links. When using the API version, none of the sponsored links show up (and until recently, google prohibited displaying AdSense on search result pages.) Of course you need programming experience to use …

Yes, the code snippets section is meant to post your completed and working code snippets for others to reference. :) I think you got confused when you thought that Dave meant for you to post your question there.

I openly accept constructive criticism, and that is the reason for this Site Feedback forum. I hope that anytime anyone has a problem with the site, something is not working, or they have a suggestion, that they please create a thread. However, I realize that sometimes people need a little …

[QUOTE=Narue]j.random_newbie@aol wants code downloads, huh? Go [url="http://www.planet-source-code.com/"]here[/url] and you'll find all kinds of good (but mostly crap) "code stuff". Enjoy.[/QUOTE] I'm amused. The entire code library is categorized based on the number of lines of code per category as opposed to the number of snippets per category.

First of all, I'm glad you're enjoying our community! User titles are, indeed, initially based on postcount. However, you may purchase a forum subscription for $5/month which entitles you to a custom user title of your choice in addition to many other benefits.

For starters, http://www.porscheracingclub.com is telling me that phpBB cannot connect to the database when I try to look at your forums. Also, http://www.911cup.dom is down. That aside, phpBB's ACP (adminstration panel) allows you to do database back-ups and restores. A more efficient way is via phpMyAdmin if it's supported on …

I don't disagree. But have you ever noticed that when you ... Clear your mind and watch ads for viagra or something on the television. If you watch the ads from a naiive perspective, you'll realize that what the product being sold is, is never described, explained, or shown. "Be …

A few days ago, Google released the new look for AdSense public service ads. I just noticed today, however, that every single page is suddenly ONLY showing these?? No more content ads on any page of the site out of no where? Can anyone confirm?

First of all, thank you for your suggestion. I would have answered you much sooner, but unfortunately the flu got a hold of me before you did ;) First of all, I just want to point out that the whole idea behind DaniWeb is to be an I.T. community that …

Your php script can't connect to the database. Open the file db.inc.php and make sure that the server name (usually localhost), database name, database username, and database password are all correct.

Make sure that your forum URLs don't have session IDs, as a bare minimum. You can also go the extra step to rewrite your forum URLs to have .html extensions, as the ones here at DaniWeb have.

[QUOTE=mortgage-pro-se]Thanks for you post. Is there anything that needs to be done to the database for optimization?[/QUOTE] There are some things you can do serverside to optimize - such as installing Turck mmCache to cache PHP scripts.

I'm not so sure if this is the same problem or not. To be quite honest, I'm a bit confused. But I was doing some very simple OpenGL programming in Visual Studio.NET with GLUT. I made an .exe and tried to send the file off to someone. But they couldn't …

I don't think that python to C is a good beginner's introduction. I would begin with either C++ or Java as a first serious, object oriented language. Some here might argue to go with C#, or even a web-based language such as PHP. However, the reason that I strongly believe …

C++ and VB are two totally different animals. Do you want to get into the .NET archetecture? Hmm ... I'm not really a book person, I just look for a bunch of tutorials on the www. I go to www.cplusplus.com a lot but it's not really a beginner's site. Pretty …

I am taking a Computer Graphics course where we are doing some c++ programming using the OpenGL API. I'm writing a C++ program in Visual Studio.NET, where I've installed GLUT (Open GL Utility Toolkit). OpenGL, itself, apparently comes with VS. The only include that I have in my one-file program …

I definitely think that a launch party, and everything you are doing for it, is a superb idea. It's great for word-of-mouth marketing as well. The only thing that I am not entirely sure of is your idea to host it on New Year's Eve. That is usually a time …

I know that ValueClick bought Commission Junction awhile ago. But what is the relationship between CJ, BeFree, and BFAST? It looks as if CJ has tried to unite them but meanwhile the CJ homepage still has separate logins for CJ and BFAST.

I am currently deciding between the ValueClick and Burst!Media banner networks. Fastclick is out because it seems they don't accept forums right now. Has anyone been successful with either of these two? Which one do you recommend?
