 | Re: SEO Advice 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 …  |

| | 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. |
 | |
| | 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 … |
| | |
 | 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. |
| | Re: help! backlinks 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? |

| | We've had the photos posted for awhile now, but the videos of the June DaniWeb event have finished being edited and are now posted on YouTube: [youtube]7Z8QhpEeFcs[/youtube] [youtube]9-3tzQyiryk[/youtube] |

| | I just tweeted "Stabbing at Comic-Con resulted from atendees fighting over the better seat to see Seth Rogen" ... It is sad and pathetic that I had to tweet that. |
| | If they're in the Sitemap.xml file and they were previously in Google's index, then that means that google definitely knows they exist. Google's algorithm has made the decision, for one reason or another, that they aren't important enough to send traffic to. Perhaps they need more freshly updated content. Or … |
 | From what I've been hearing for a very long time, Google actually gives penalties for duplicate keywords. |
| | Not sure what you mean? It is currently considered unethical SEO / black hat SEO to purchase links solely to increase search engine rankings. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. Are you asking whether people should do it themselves or hire a company? |
| | There is a link at the bottom saying Threads I've Started. |
| | First of all, great to have you as a member frisky :) What mouse are you using? Is it the Apple Pro mouse? A two button or three button mouse? Did you install the mouse drivers or let the OS just use the default drivers? Also, what OS are you … |
 | We get no traffic from Yahoo! either. I think it's because Yahoo! themselves get virtually no traffic. ;) |
| | Yes, keyword density is important, but a different way today than it was in the past. Previously, the more repetitively a keyword was mentioned, the better it would rank. Toooo excessive though, and it could begin to work against you. Today, search engines are getting smarter and smarter at being … |
 | :( Dave will definitely be very missed. I don't think that DaniWeb will be the same without him. |
 | You can sort listings by thread start time instead of last post time.  |
 | Yes. I am not so sure you'd be penalized as much as the search engines will just discount the meta tags entirely. |
| | Re: innodb vs myisam This thread should answer your question: [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread40911.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread40911.html[/url] |
 | By default we don't save a copy of messages in sent items because then the message is in our database twice (once in someone's inbox and a second time in someone else's outbox), and we try to conserve as many resources as possible. |
| | We get just about all of our SE traffic from Google. All the other search engines amount to just barely a fraction of a percent! |
| | |
| | Does it operate on a CPC model? I would just stick with AdWords now that they offer demographic targeting. When FB's marketplace first came out it was unique in that there was all this demographic targeting you couldn't do elsewhere, but AdWords is just as feature-rich, if not more so, … |
| | Google AdWords tends to do well with ad campaigns that need to back out into a performance-based metric (leads, purchases, etc). There is also always the social media angle (Twitter, YouTube channel, etc) |
| | I have a Linksys router (WAN = cable modem) connected to a Linksys gigabit switch in addition to a Linksys Wireless G router. My XBOX 360 is connected via CAT6 to either the router or the switch - I forget which one and my cables are so crazy underneath my … |
| | People use short URLs for twitter because there is a low character limit and in most cases full URLs are too long to fit. If you care about SEO, make sure that you use a URL shortener that does a 301 Permanent Redirect to the full URL so that "seo … |
| | Has anyone received their AdSense payment for October yet? It doesn't even say my check went out yet nevermind having received it. I e-mailed AdSense a lil under 2 weeks ago to make sure I correctly submitted the tax information and they said I did. I just e-mailed them again … |
 | Click the button in the bottom purple toolbar that says Threads I've Posted In.  |
| | The idea is that your content should be good enough that you will constantly grow links naturally. A link building campaign is a good start to grow traffic to a page, but the content should be good enough that once the page has a decent amount of traffic, people will … |
 | Re: Daniweb DaniWeb's forums are based on the vBulletin forum system. It's not free but it's reasonably priced for what it is capable of at just under $200 for a license. However, not only are the forums highly customized, but all of the other features the site offers are coded in house … |
The End.
