Favorite_Search_Engine CommentGoogle, it's the best, hands down. Although I hear Ask.com's algorithm is very complicated and advanced, and is based on how much time people spend on web pages. That makes me sad to see that I don't have my web site anywhere on Ask where it is on... - Sun Nov 19 15:45:57 2006:
Anyone_use_ChaCha CommentCan you give a link? I can't find it, although I think I know what you're talking about it. Is ChaCha similar to... - Sun Nov 19 15:44:49 2006:
Where_d_Jeeves_go CommentYou are aware that Jeeves is not a real person, he's just a fictional character. And an animated fictional character, at... - Sun Nov 19 15:43:02 2006:
Value_of_the_smaller_search_engines CommentThat doesn't make sense. Just because less people use them doesn't mean that your site will be higher; all the small search engine ranking lists are pretty similar to Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Also, people say that you get backlinks by submitting to small... - Sun Nov 19 15:39:33 2006:
Sponsored Links MessageHas anyone ever considered trying to get a position on the "Sponsored Links" column for a search? I've thought about it, but then everytime you get a click you have to pay money, so your site has to be selling something to make any money, and I'm not... - Sun Nov 19 15:38:04 2006:
Payiing_for_search_engine_listing CommentRiverQueen, your explanation is not why forums are high. SEO, at least with Google, doesn't have to do with traffic or how much money they make. I personally don't understand how it happens, but I know it's not... - Sun Nov 19 15:36:21 2006:
I_wouldn_t_use_an_SEO_service CommentThere are people who know a lot about SEO, have good tools, and have the connections to make a site big in the search engines. Not everybody has that, and that's why I think SEO services can work out. I've heard of people getting to the top with the help... - Sun Nov 19 15:34:10 2006:
I_don_t_use_subdomains CommentSubdomains don't do better in search engines just because they don't have a www. Oh, WAIT. I just realized something... they probably do. Because there are less characters, and Google ranks based on how many characters fit the keyword out of all... - Sun Nov 19 15:32:33 2006:
Would this work? MessageIf I took one of my sites that is strong, made like 50 subdomains, and linked them to one of my other sites, would that count as 50 different links? I might do that, although that might be considered Black... - Sun Nov 19 15:31:40 2006:
Sneaky_trick CommentSubdomains are a good way to save money from buying new domains, and all the benefits Paul said, but subdomains are hard to remember, and hard to get up high in... - Sun Nov 19 15:28:05 2006:
I got the Wii MessageI got the new Nintendo Wii for $250, and now am selling it on eBay for a starting bid of $399.99. I expect it to sell for around $600, which would be really great, because I like... - Fri Nov 17 19:56:03 2006:
Building_A_Business CommentI also think you should have a website, just to look more professional, but don't invest any in SEO. It's useless for a business that deals only in... - Fri Nov 17 19:55:14 2006:
Made_Forum_Boards CommentAre you looking for the phpBB equivalent of an e-commerce program? I know what you're talking about, I'm pretty sure with cPanel hosting packages they offer a nice program like... - Fri Nov 17 19:54:28 2006:
Graphics_program CommentMS Paint! My God, how can you use that crappy software. I hate it so much, it's so obsolete and inefficient. However, I had an old friend who made some pretty nice looking guns on it. I still don't know how he did that, they were so awesome... - Fri Nov 17 19:46:34 2006:
Firefox_2 CommentI hear IE7 is actually giving some good competition. I've used it, and it's alright, but Firefox has that comfy feel. I can't explain it, it just feels like IE is too... - Fri Nov 17 19:45:52 2006:
FLASH_A_Very_Bad_Idea CommentI wouldn't say kill it. I've seen some flash sites that are good in the rankings, and just get a lot of traffic from word-of-mouth. But I must admit, those cases are rare. My stand: Flash is for animation and presentation, not... - Fri Nov 17 19:44:32 2006:
computer_protection CommentMcAffee sucks, about two years ago when I wiped my bad computer clean, and then I installed McAffee on it and things started running all slow. I hate that piece of crap, I don't know why people consider it one of the... - Fri Nov 17 19:41:32 2006:
Search_engine_fight CommentThis kind of reminds me of that site, I can't remember what it's called. It might have just been straight up called searchenginefight.com, but I don't think that was... - Fri Nov 17 19:30:32 2006:
I used to use imageshack MessageI used to always use imageshack to upload images and stuff, but it's always been slow, and you can't really save your images. I upload images on my website now. I think anybody who has a site should do that instead of using an image upload... - Fri Nov 17 19:29:20 2006:
Sell_yourself_or_have_somebody_do_it_for_you CommentWell, you could pay someone to make a site for you, and maybe even write the copy, but if I were someone, I would write the copy and have the designer look it over and tell me if it looked effective.... - Fri Nov 17 19:28:22 2006:
How_many_names_do_you_own Comment$10/month for 7, 000 domains? That's not true, it would be like $8 a year for each domain, unless there's some kind of bulk package. All the domains are probably all on one hosting... - Wed Nov 15 19:27:09 2006:
Where'd Jeeves go? MessageWhy'd they take Jeeves out of Ask.com? He was the only thing keeping that search engine alive, and when they removed him, traffic died and they had to start doing TV ads to revive it. As to why Jeeves left, this is all I could... - Wed Nov 15 19:17:24 2006:
Blogger CommentI'm trying to decide between Blogger and Wordpress, although I have to admit it's probably going to be Wordpress. However, I have not officially made a decision... - Wed Nov 15 19:14:31 2006:
Wordpress CommentWhen I get my new domain I'm going to use WordPress. I like the clean, simple style, how everything is laid out very nice. So... - Wed Nov 15 19:05:13 2006:
Cross_posting CommentI don't see a way to do that without just copy and pasting. It's not that hard man, in fact, it would be harder to code a system to do that, if there is even a... - Wed Nov 15 18:58:21 2006:
MySpace CommentNo way is MySpace a blog. It's categorized as a social networking site. If MySpace expanded to include blogging, it would take a lot of business from Xanga and other sites, maybe even WordPress and Blogger, although I'm sure established people wouldn't... - Wed Nov 15 18:56:47 2006:
Best system to use MessageWhat do you think is the best blog system to use? I'm trying to aquire a domain, and I want to put a blogging system on it. I only know of two, wordpress and blogger, and blogspot, although I think that's the same as blogger... Yep, it... - Wed Nov 15 17:06:59 2006:
blog_promotion CommentPayPerPost is good, but articles I think are better. You submit a great article, people like it, you can get lots of links and lots of traffic. Trust me, it... - Wed Nov 15 17:03:35 2006:
Is_blogging_more_powerful_than_ever CommentI would say that it is less powerful, because there is a lot more competition than it was a long time ago. However, more people read blogs now too, so it kind of evens... - Wed Nov 15 17:03:01 2006:
Blog_link_exchanges CommentYou can also buy links, that would do better for SEO and it would save link space in your link area. The downside is so obvious that I won't state... - Wed Nov 15 17:02:13 2006:
Where_to_promote CommentThe best thing to do is do link exchanges with related blogs, or buy links from related blogs. That's the best advice I have to... - Wed Nov 15 16:58:38 2006:
Why_so_few_blogs CommentSome people don't have a blog because they don't know what to blog about, don't know how to blog, don't want a WordPress or BlogSpot blog, etc., etc. On a different note, have you noticed how when people are listing things, they stop when they've run out... - Tue Nov 14 17:35:23 2006:
Trying to get a domain MessageI'm trying to get a domain; it's not being used and it doesn't look like it is going to be used. I used whois from GoDaddy and emailed the owner, but is there anything else I can do to try to get this domain? I hate people who just register domains and... - Tue Nov 14 17:33:44 2006:
How_do_I_get_started CommentThat sounds like a nice, unpopulated niche. Another way to make money is through Affiliate Junction, which I just learned about in a thread I read a few minutes... - Tue Nov 14 17:31:20 2006:
Related_Affiliate_Programs CommentI've heard of affiliate junction before, but I never knew how it worked. So, it's like a contextual ad service, but instead of putting out ads, it puts out affiliate programs. That is a great idea, I should get... - Tue Nov 14 17:29:44 2006:
Has_anyone_heard_of_MyLot CommentIt's just another paid to blog site. $1 a day isn't much, but I wouldn't mind making that off my... - Tue Nov 14 17:11:41 2006:
Blog link exchanges MessageSince blogs usually have those link corners, those are great places to link to other blogs. I don't think doing link exchanges with regular sites is good because people reading blogs usually look for other blogs to... - Tue Nov 14 17:09:48 2006:
Can personal blogs make that much? MessageI don't think personal blogs have that much opportunity to make money. Unless a blog is really specific, I don't think it can compete with others. There are so many personal blogs out there, no one would read and it would be nearly impossible to make a... - Tue Nov 14 17:05:25 2006:
I'm more of a banner guy MessageI don't like text ads; I'm an artistic guy, and banners are a way for me to show of my creativity. I'm not an idiot, I know text links are better for SEO, but traffic leads to linking which leads to... - Tue Nov 14 16:58:55 2006:
Sell_yourself_or_have_somebody_do_it_for_you CommentI would never buy from someone who offered their services to me directly, like one-on-one, unless I knew them for awhile. I don't know why, it just wouldn't feel right, like they're acting like my friend when I don't even know... - Mon Nov 13 17:43:20 2006:
Taggers CommentYeah I have no idea what a tagger is; it is someone who clicks your ads uncontrollably or something? Something to do with MySpace? Sounds like a MySpace... - Mon Nov 13 17:42:09 2006:
StumbleUpon MessageStumbleUpon has just started working wonders for my site. It used to only bring me a little traffic but now it's getting me a lot more; I guess a lot of people have liked it. For those who don't know what StumbleUpon is, it is a toolbar with a button... - Mon Nov 13 17:36:31 2006:
Weird ideas MessageHave you ever tried something really weird in order to get traffic? Me, I haven't, but I'm actually looking for ideas. I want more... - Mon Nov 13 17:31:08 2006:
Sell_yourself_or_have_somebody_do_it_for_you CommentAnother good way to "sell yourself" is on the street... no I'm just kidding. You can do it on eBay, I did that once; I got some inquiries, but nobody bought. However, it might work for... - Mon Nov 13 16:33:13 2006:
Best_Computer_Brands CommentI have two Dells, and they are great. I used to have a Compaq, and oh my God, it sucked so bad. Also, it was a Windows Millenium, which also sucks. Compaq + Windows ME = Crap. But I replaced it with a Dell, so it's all good, don't worry about me. I said... - Sun Nov 12 19:03:44 2006:
XML_and_XHTML CommentI thought that XHTML didn't work in Mozilla Firefox, or maybe it was that it didn't work on IE... I heard that it didn't work on one of those two... - Sun Nov 12 19:02:45 2006:
Any_good_books_on_advanced_XML CommentOr eBay, eBay has a lot of stuff. I think they have a whole section of books; I mean, I know they have a whole section on... - Sun Nov 12 18:53:41 2006:
nofollow_tag CommentWhat does a nofollow tag new? Why is Matt Cutt blogging about it; I thought all he blogged about was SEO stuff. Does nofollow have something to do with... - Sun Nov 12 18:51:20 2006:
Hexadecimal_colors CommentOn my site, I need to use special colors often, and I have a list in my bookmarks, although sometimes I find better lists and I switch... - Sun Nov 12 18:45:48 2006:
tables CommentSomebody told me that tables are bad for SEO; I'm not sure how it is, but that's what someone told me (who was good with SEO) so I don't do... - Sun Nov 12 18:44:42 2006:
hand_coding CommentI don't know what's going on, I have a dude do it all for me. But when I add content, I come in contact a bit with the code, but not so much that I have to know a... - Sun Nov 12 18:43:18 2006:
Good_way_to_get_backlinks CommentWell if you have employees on your site you could add that to their list of duties, but most websites are run by only one person, sometimes... - Sun Nov 12 18:42:30 2006:
GoDaddy CommentGoDaddy is one of the cheapest hosting plans that give the most megabyte storage and bandwidth. I use GoDaddy and I like it, I also have all my domains with... - Sun Nov 12 18:37:44 2006:
Desgning_your_own_website CommentThere are many ways to do it; hand-code, Dreamweaver, Frontpage, or hire someone else (although there are some other programs). Me, I hire someone else, because I can't code or... - Sun Nov 12 18:34:35 2006:
Online_parties CommentThis online party idea seems interesting, but I don't think I have the software or programming abilities to create something like this. Then again, I don't have any products to sell, so it's not really that useful for me...
