Hey everyone! I figured I'd introduce myself amongst these 12,439 fish in the sea, so basically and put shortly:I'm neuroxik. I'm a web developper, and my strengths are (x)html, css, and php/mysql, although php is more recent so I'm still in my learning process yet developing some neat things. I'm a Canadian, and right now I'm in Quebec. Oh, and I got a question: how do you obtain credits here ? Is there a post that explains this ?

Probably I failed to make a clear explanation of the phrase "Frequent small changes". This actually means employing simple SEO tricks like changing page title, descriptions, text in <H1> tags and all without changing the actual content of a webpage. Say you have optimised your webpage for any ExampleKeyphrase, which should appear in the Page title, description and preferrably within <H1> tag in the body of that webpage and different other places. Now if your webpage is not listed in page 1 of Google SERP, you may consider making more adjustments to move up in the position. Not quite sure whether you have tried/employed such tricks or not, but I know those are effective atleast to some extent. You may check out this link for ON Page Negative SEO Factors

This is called brain-storming, and your suggestions are really excellent. So far as implementation goes, it is completely upto Google. The matter must be brought into Google's notice as anyday anybody can be a victim of someone's foul play. So, Google must resist such act. ***** EDIT ***** Anyway, one more question to know, have you been paid by Google for those clicks?

By "frequent small changes" I meant changes in Page Title, Description Meta Tags and may be some times changing text written in <H1> Tags like that. So far as cost is concerned, I do not think that it will cost too much. However, so far as SEO is concerned, these small changes are very effective ( atleast what I have found ). So I put forward that question. And indeed, if you pay too much attention to optimise your site for SEs, atleast Goolgle will not like that. For obvious reasons Google loves to see pages whose contents are updated frequently as the visitors love to see latest fresh contents.

The Benefits Of Being An Affiliate Letâs take a quick look at the benefits of starting your own affiliate business. Weâll leave the details of each point till later, as weâll be mentioning them a lot during this series of articles ... Very cheap (or even Free) to start up. Very cheap (or even Free) to promote. You work at your own pace, being your own boss. You donât have to pay anyone to do the job for you; an affiliate business is very easy to manage -- if you know what youâre doing, which is exactly what these articles will show you. Worldwide, easy to reach customers. Easy and inexpensive to test and automate. And thereâs even more benefits ... You donât need to have your own product to sell. Brand yourself as an expert. You get collateral publicity -- you can advertise your own products when you have them. Make money in other ways, e.g. ad placement, e-zine publishing, article posting, etc. All these benefits, and many others, are very promising, and they give the affiliate business model unquestionable allure. But the most important one, the basis of and the reason for affiliate programs, is that you donât need to have your own product. Weâre going to talk about this specific benefit right now, since itâs going to be the basis for everything we do from now on as affiliates ... ----- There are many ways to make money. For example ... You can manufacture a product and then sell it You can market your professional services, e.g. legal advice, medical advice, network administration, etc. You can work for a company using your education as an accountant, a programmer, a translator, etc. You can have a job related to your life-long experience, e.g. as a driver, a sales-person, a telemarketer, etc. But do you see what all the above have in common? You must already posses either a product, a service, or significant experience in a certain field before you can make any serious money. So what would your answer be if I was to ask you this question: âIf you donât have a product to sell or a service to offer, would you make money?â I did ask a lot of my friends that question. And the answer has always been a resounding No! But letâs take a look at something weâve all seen before. A super-market. Super-markets present us with many, many different products. Be it packaged food, toys, cigarettes, baby diapers, perfumes, or anything, there are two things to notice about super-markets in general: They do NOT manufacture any of those products. They mostly sell the exact same things. So how do super-markets make money even though they donât really own those products, and what makes one super-market any different, i.e. more successful and profitable, than another? Well, super-markets actually provide us with a service, but itâs a subtle one. Itâs convenience. They save us the trouble of going to a dozen different specialized stores, by grouping most everything we might need in one place. But that only answers the first part of the question. We still donât know what makes one super-market better than any other. Well, the answer to this one is not as subtle, but it can be overlooked just the same. The secret lies in the selection, the presentation, the atmosphere, the friendliness of staff ... the overall look and feel of the place. So how does any of that relate to YOU, the affiliate? Letâs think about it ... You donât have a physical product to sell, and perhaps your college education (if you had one) cannot be offered as a service over the Internet, and you donât even have experience in anything yet. Even so, you can still offer people a service ... your Website. And what makes up that service?... The design, the colours, the organization, and the overall look and feel of your Website. The content on your Website. The focus of your Website. The top-quality selection of products (of other merchants) you offer on your Website. The attention and care you provide your visitors, making sure they will only find the best products and enjoy their time on your Website. All that is your service. Letâs assume for a minute that youâre opening a Website selling music CDs. Youâre an affiliate of CDNow.com and Amazon.com. So what? There are million other Websites doing the exact same thing, some even selling the exact same titles and albums. So the physical products you promote donât distinguish you in any way. What does? The way you assemble and present your products, the look and feel of your Website, and the superior support and attention your provide your visitors. Thatâs your real product! ---------- Now that you really know what affiliate businesses are all about, itâs time to put some meat on them bones . In the following article, weâre going to discuss something we all like. Money ... that got your attention, didnât it? Thatâs good, because the next article will show you the how, the why, and the what about affiliate businesses and money. So until then ... Best Regards, Dr. Tamer Aly

Oh, I'm sorry. YOU, a member who just registered here, and who's making his very first post, heard that he got suspended for that. You must be psychic. Oh, or perhaps you could be that suspended person under a different name. Who knows! Oh wait again. The moderators would know, by simply checking the IPs. Have a good day.

Help! Why Are My Points Going Down?
iGuest replied to cassie1405241527's topic in Web Hosting Support
No, the difference between the plans are simply the amount of disk storage space and Bandwidth allowed for each plan. There is no "status" associated or "tiering" of the plans. If the account status is "suspended", you do not drop to the lesser plan. Suspended is Suspended, irregardless of which plan you have the account set up for. -

The Illusion Of (free) On The Internet!
iGuest replied to iGuest's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Omkar, that was an absolutely lovely read The fact of the matter is, I honestly don't know why I wrote that article. It could be boredom .. it could be too much free time these days .. it could be the attitude of some young people who are new to the Net and desparately seeking the free even when it's obviously NOT always the route to go. Perhaps that stirred a reaction that was equal in velocity and momentum, while opposite in direction . The funny thing is, I'm a big fan of the "Free." I support it whole-heartedly. I use GPL software a lot, and recommend it to others. My OS has been mostly Linux since as far as I can remember. I frequently encourage people to share their knowledge and experience with others, merely in the spirit of "sharing." I always try to tell others that "give" and "take" are two words that don't necessarily have to be in the same sentence So I admit it, I was wrong. I generalized too much, where I should have been more specific. Yes, I was too irritated, but that never is an excuse ... merely a reason. And so, in the hope of making it up to you, to myself, and to the "free" movement, I intend to write another article to try and right what I said wrong. It should be a delightful exercise in Schizophrania Thank you all for your wonderful input. It was truly a joy to read. Best Regards. -
The Illusion Of (free) On The Internet!
iGuest replied to iGuest's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Honestly, I'm enjoying talking to you, Alegis, but like I said, I wish to draw myself out of this particular discussion, even though I'm the one who started it . And by the way, The Straw Man Fallacy is essentially a "substitution" fallacy, as you pointed out. And being that, I didn't commit it. You see, I never meant to debunk a one meaning by implying the invalidity of another. I rather pointed out that the term at hand, free, by definition encompasses several meanings, and I tried to debunk each at a time, relating to its appropriate circumstances. I'm only replying to this because it seems like we're both fans of philosophy . Best Regards. -

The Illusion Of (free) On The Internet!
iGuest replied to iGuest's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Hello Alegis, Of course, you're right. But my friend, I didn't generalize because of this example. I generalized because I've never, and I repeat never have come across a service that is totally free, in every sense of the word. And I tried to show that there are many senses of that word Actually, no. Time is a major factor, as major as money. At least for very successful and very busy people, to whom time is always money And no, my friend, I didn't broaden the definition. I quoted the definition from Merriam-Webster's dictionary. The definition itself is broad enough, without my doing anything more to it . I think you, dear Alegis are the one who's narrowing it, by excluding out everything BUT money. And lastly, could you kindly give me an example of something absolutely free, according to the definition given by Merriam-Webster? Of course, if you find another dictionary that doesn't offer a similar definition, I'll agree with you automatically . Best Regards. ----- Alright everyone. I have to say something now. Perhaps I did over-generalize. I don't think I did, and I still believe in everything I said above, but honestly, that Blender software looks amazing .. lol. I won't argue this point anymore. I'll leave it at this, maintaining that I'm not closed to your opinions, but I'm still not fully against my own earlier opinion. I'll leave it, like many things in life, open to debate ... something that only time can prove . Thank you all for your lovely contributions. It's been an honour talking to all of you. Best Regards, Dr. Tamer Aly -
That's perfect, Vyoma. Thank you incredibly so much Now I'm going to take a closer look at Drupal, to see whether it suits my needs. I also think we can safely assume that all the major CMSes offer such functionality, in one form or another. Again, thank you so very much. Best Regards
-
Thank you for the lovely information, finaldesign. I've seen the phrase permalink a lot in blogs, but I never remembered to check what it's for But you got it right, I'm actually interested more in a complete CMS not just a blog. But the information you've given me helps a lot. Thank you . Yeah, Vyoma, this is good for Search Engine friendliness, but like you said, it wouldn't help much with the Search Engine Ranking. And unfortunately, I have to worry about SEO But at least, your suggestion is a good step along the way. Thank you, Vyoma

The Illusion Of (free) On The Internet!
iGuest replied to iGuest's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Yup. That's basically the only thing I wish was free I wish that was true, my friend. But many folks that are new to the Web do NOT know that. They fall too readily into the FREE-stuff trap. And after they get hurt, they never think of blaming themselves. They only come to forums like this *****ing and moaning. This article is meant to be a warning sign for newbies, so that they don't have to fall into that trap. It's a way to save everyone time and effort . Best Regards. -

Hello Maggie, Even though this is beside the point of this topic, I'm going the following link would help you out ... How Do I Close My PayPal Account? Best Regards. -
Hello, I've been thinking lately about using a CMS for my next Website. I've refrained from using them since I felt they restricted me in some ways, but my new site doesn't really require all that much configuration, and I believe a CMS would suit it perfectly. But my concern right now is whether CMSes are Search Engine Optimizable. A lot of the CMSes I've seen in action append pages with non-SEOed URLs, such as ?page=u282 or ?index=11-02-06 and the like. And so my question is, which of the CMSes available supports SEOed URLs, such as http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/, whether inherently or using mods or hacks? I'd very much appreciate any and all of your input and comments regarding this. Even if the information you provide is a little off-topic, I'm sure it'll help me understand something I didn't fully understand, or know something I never even knew Best Regards, Dr. Tamer Aly

The Illusion of (Free) On The Internet Just like the real world, the Internet has its ups and its downs, its good and its bad. Just like the real world, the Internet is made of decent folks and crude folks, respectable Website and sleazy Websites, truths and lies. And just like the real world, the Internet has a rule that has invariably proved itself correct ... Nothing Comes For Free! But if thatâs true, then how come we seem to see this word, FREE, everywhere we look? Free membership, free subscription, free graphics, free software, free hosting, free offer, etc. To answer that question, we have to understand what free means ... Of course, like any other word, it has many meanings. But the one definition that concerns us here is: So, according to that definition, whenever you see a Website presenting something free, it implies that you donât have to pay anything for it. The emphasis here is on the word anything. So letâs take a look, with this definition in mind, at some of the allegedly free offers we find online ... Step #1: FREE Doesnât Exist Take a look at http://www.dot.tk/en/index.html?lang=en. This is a service which promotes itself as a âFree Domain Name Registrar.â But when you get right down to it, the only free thing about it is the name. Now consider what you have to put up with ... Pop-up advertisement The Non-standard look of the domain name. The lack of name-server configurability. The slow service. The risk of the registrar going offline and of losing the domain name. ... to name a few. So how could such a service be free, according to the definition above? This service is costing you a lot ... You lose the confidence and trust of your visitors, You get an unprofessional, amateurish stigma, And ultimately, you lose the money that you couldâve gained from your visitors had you paid for a known domain name like a .com or a .net. Step #2: FREE Doesnât Last Iâm sure youâre used a trial or a shareware version of software before. We all have. For example, ACDSee has always been one of my favourite pieces of image viewing and manipulation software. It can be downloaded as a 15-days trial version. But what happens after those 15 days? Well, you have to buy the full version, or the software keeps annoying you with purchase reminders, and eventually stops functioning altogether. And thatâs the way it is with all shareware and trial versions of any software out there. Step #3: FREE Doesnât Come Cheap Consider the Linux Operating System. We all know itâs free, right? You donât have to pay anything for it, right? Well, I donât know about that ... Itâs true that you donât have to spend money in order to get yourself a Linux distribution, but you pay in other ways. You find yourself having to learn the basics of a different operating system. You find yourself dealing with a new paradigm, in terms of infrastructure, code compilation, software compatibility, user-friendliness, availability of quality software, and customer service, or lack thereof. So indeed you pay for using a Linux. Perhaps not with cash, but with time, effort, and peace of mind. Linux may be free, but for most, it certainly isnât cheap. Step #4: FREE Doesnât Suffice A prime example for this is PayPal. At PayPal is free to join, to send money to another PayPal account, and to receive money from another PayPal account. But with the free account, there are limitations ... Thereâs a certain limit, above which money can neither be sent to nor received from another PayPal account. You canât use credit cards to increase your funds, nor can you receive money from them. You canât accept donations through your Website. You canât deposit your funds into your bank account. ... and many, many more restrictions. Yes, PayPal can be free. But does free suffice? I think not. Nothing Comes For Free! And so the rule proves itself again to be perfectly true. The word free is an illusion. It works only because people believe in it. Itâs fueled by greed and nourished by ill logic. No matter what you see, no matter what hype wants you to believe, always remember this ... That which costs nothing is worth nothing. Yes, you can get something without having to pay money for it. But keep in mind, money isnât the only determining factor. In both real life and the Internet, there are many factors at work. Most Websites offer their services or products in exchange for something. They might ask for money, an e-zine subscription, a regular presence and helpful posting in forums, viewing advertisement, etc. Those Websites are the one to take seriously. Theyâre NOT free, even if they sometimes use that word. They want something in exchange for their services and/or products. They understand the golden rule ... That which costs nothing is worth nothing. Finally, I have one last piece of advice for you. If and when you see a Website claiming that youâll get this or that absolutely free, RUN ... run your butt off! By now, Iâm sure you know why, right? Yup. Because Nothing Comes For Free! Regards, Dr. Tamer Aly

What's An Affiliate Program? In 1997, Amazon.com launched its affiliate program. It wasnât the first of its kind, but it was the first to make the concept of affiliate programs prominent and known to the public. But what are affiliate programs? To answer this question, letâs take Amazon.com as an example ... Amazon.com sells books and heaps of other goods online. Books offer information on millions of widely-varied subjects. And when you think about it, to each of those subjects, thereâs a Website already dedicated. So Amazon.com thought: âWhy not have all those specialized Websites work for us?â ... Of course, the idea of having millions of Websites bringing in buyers would make any CEO drool. But how did Amazon.com manage to do that? Well, thatâs the basis for any and all affiliate programs ... The affiliate provides links from his/her Website to particular books and merchandise on the Amazon.com Website, books and merchandise that are related to the affiliateâs Website theme and content. Amazon.com uses special tracking software to track which Website sends each visitor. If that visitor decides to buy from Amazon.com, the sender affiliate gets a commission. And thatâs basically what an affiliate business is all about ... Website X sends a visitor to Company A. Visitor buys something from Company A. Company A pays Website X. Easy, right? Indeed it is. But simplicity is not the only virtue of affiliate programs. There are many advantages working for the affiliate business model, much more than meets the eye. And thatâs exactly what weâre going to discuss next ... The benefits of being an affiliate See you soon, Dr. Tamer Aly

Couple of days ago, I was to learn about some diseases and I conducted a Google search. And the search result page simply astonished me. For example: when I googled for "Malaria", the big "G" gave me more options to refine search, like, Treatment Tests/diagnosis For patients From medical authorities Symptoms Causes/risk factors For health professionals Alternative medicine. Those options were really helpful to get exactly what I was looking for quickly. The query string looked something like searchkeyword more: option The more:option appears to be very helpful to refine search results.

ganesh, please try to be honest. You know it's not your board for which you want the BB code XML. It's for the MYSHost.com forum. And I ask the administrators and moderators to take a look at Common Questions section at that forum, to see the amount of plagiarism ganesh11 has done. He copied and pasted many articles from Xisto.com and put them there as is, without even the courtsey of adding a link or a note. Regards.
