  1. as well as checking google to find out your position and competition you should also check AOL.com as they use google results only they mix them up abit. AOL is the world's 2nd most used search engine.Remember that you've got to build better SEO'd sites than your competitors for a keyword on order to rank above them.


  2. HI,My windows xp crashed while I was playing a DVD. It was "16 blocks" so I guess my pc just couldn't handle looking at bruse willis and decided to end its life :)Anyway, upon restart I get the usual dell loading screen and then a screen with several options on it - start windows normally, from the last good save, or in safe mode. None of these options work. They all result in a blank screen or lines of code.I have a dimension 5150 pc. I was not supplied with any windows XP cds.I have data on the PC I'd rather not lose.Any ideas of what I can do?Thanks,Andy


  3. cell-phone internet usage may not have taken not taken off... yet!But I think it will. At the moment I've only got a phone that will access the net but the screen is to small to really make it worthwhile. it was given to me in xmas 2004. I'm going to be getting a new phone this xmas or january wit an internet capability and a bigger screen. I think many more people will as well.Buying the http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ domains I'm trying to register won't bring in alot of traffic in the next 12 months. But from 2007 onwards I think it'll boom.Wouldn't you want to have a really good .com domain now? If you could go back to when it was launched would you buy a really good one?


  4. the .mobi domain is beign launched in 7 days - 26th of spetember. have you pre-ordered yours yet? I think that with the url being an important factor in the Search engine positioning of websites you really have to consider getting in on the ground floor of this new domain. keep in mind that there are already more mobile phones than TVs!!! in 1-3 years I think most people will use their mobiles to surf the net as well. I bet internet ready phones will be sold in in the 100,000s this christmas!Next may also sees the publishing of the .tel domain - another domain aimed at mobile phones. not only that but alot of the major search engiens are already experimenting with pay-per-call advertising systems, another website-mobile phone targeted market.So what'd you think?


  5. calm down, don't go all hitler on us or anything triple. lol :)I think that we all can do more to help save the planet, but to be perfetly honest as a people it is the greedy industrialists who are to blame. I'd love to buy bio-degradable plastic-like bags and have all my foods packaged in them. but the companies all like to package their porducts in plastic which isn't soo great. don't destroy the human race, just destroy the corporate fat cats and industrialsits and get some people who are more "green" to take their place!


  6. google is the worl'd best known search engine, that's for sure. people have got it into their heads that they use google.com to search the net. the other top 2 search engines Yahoo! and MSN are used to search the web by the users of their free email services @yahoo.com and @hotmail.com and microsoft have even added msn into the internet explorer to give it more searchers.Google doesn;t need to have other services available for people to use it though they are starting to go that way - gmail, etc.


  7. "I dont get the competition wit search engines, like wtf, they all basically find the same stuff but i prefer google cause its so simplistic and i just like it and have always used it and will continue to use it because there is no reason to use another search engine, but good luck to them."

    - Google is just a search engine. people search it coz they know its NAME. yahoo and MSN offer other SERVICES such as email and internet explorer and people use them to search the web because it is convienent (the search box is right there!).

    Competions between the SE's is important to webmasters as it can affect how much traffic your site gets as your rankings for keywords will vary from each of them.

  8. no offense. that sounds very racist. to describe frace as "fading fast" due to its large muslim population completely ignores the fact that french muslims are not radical but rather peaceful french citizens. Also europe as a whole has a very long history of trade with the middle east spanning centuries, so there's more common ground than disputed ground. America also has a large muslim population, who are proud to be american.


  9. I think by 2038 all the computer systems around will have this problem fixed.Then again it coudl save lives. If norh korea and the USA were going to have a nuclear showdown in 2038, and they tried to fire their missiles they'd get a big error message and the missiles wouldn't launch lol :) if only...


  10. I've heard about this directory that doesn't want your home pages, but your content pages submitted to it. You can submit as many content pages as you like from your site, as long as they are relevant to the categoy you are submitting to. Blog articles as well!

    The webmaster of the site said:

    "Have fun, and submit now before word gets out and we are swamped. I anounced this on my blog a short while ago this afternoon, and so far we have accepted 112 sites."

    So what'd you all think? It sounds like a good idea but I think there will be too many submissions as each site could sumbit many pages. I think RSS feeds would work better. Nice idea tho. :)


  11. I'm telling you, it is a must to have your site included in google sitemaps to get ranked in google nowadays.

    Sitemaps is a free membership based submission program where google will give you stats on your website - last time it was crawled, any errors found, keywords it's ranked for.

    https://www.google.com%2Fwebmasters%2Ftools%2Flogin&followup=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fwebmasters%2Ftools%2Flogin

    All you need is a Google account to use it - an email address to sign up.

    Have you submitted to msn yet? or yahoo?
