Why some of new indexed pages of my web site disappeared from search results?

10 days ago i have activated my web-site with whole new design and content and because of it's an old web site and has 2 pr, it's quickly added to search results by google. Then i sent some important url's to google via webmasters tools for make google index those pages. After 2-3 days those pages were indexed. But i realized those pages are disappearing from index and today all sub-pages disappeared. There aren't any spammy content, pages were original, valid html5 code. What can be the cause of this ?


Redirect all traffic to construction page except my IP in .htaccess

The title pretty much says it all. I want to direct all traffic to an under construction page except for traffic originating from my IP address so I can move a large development site into production and tweak a few things along the way. Any way to do this in .htaccess? Thanks.


Search Engine, Public Facing Game

I run an online game. The only pages one can access without an account are the homepage, register, lost password, contact me. If I were to make more of my pages public, and add links to them from the homepage, **would this help gain traffic?** The pages I am think about making public are the forums, player profiles and game statistics.

How do I host my website with another web hosting provider which is not the provider I registered domain name with?

Recently I registered for a domain name and bought it. I had failed to check their hosting plans first :(. They charge a lot for hosting a website. I am thinking of hosting it under some free web hosting provider. How do I host my website with another web hosting provider which is not the provider I registered the domain with?


Webshop with different domains per brand

I'm creating a niche webshop which offers a limited number of products per brand/category which are somewhat similar to each other. However I have chosen to promote the products per brand on a different domain for extra search engine ranking. The layout will mostly be the same across domains. Customers will also switch over the domain during the process. Maybe a little broad but the question is: Which factors do I have to take account for regarding SEO? And then I mean for example: avoid duplicate content. A few more specific questions: Can I use the breadcrumb across the domains? Does it affect SEO if the domains are pointing to the same host?.


By 301 redirect will Google take my new domain as having duplicate content ?

If I do a 301 redirect from Google Webmaster then will Google take my old domain as my new domain ? I mean, my old domain is www.hackinguniverse.org but I want to change my domain as well as name because I have to get approved for Google AdSense and with having the word "Hacking" .. I now it is quite impossible to get approved for AdSense. But by 301 redirect is it sure that Google will not take my site as duplicate content? Please help.


Navigation Category page not indexed by Google

Navigation menu is in the form of categories on website `http://bankpo.in`, none of the category pages is being indexed by Google. I searched with exact URL for a category, still related results are shown instead of category page. I have checked Google Webmaster Tools and there are no crawling error or any other error message, so I am really confused what might be the problem. Website is not a new one and is continuously updated, so please can anyone tell me the reason for this.


On which crowdsourced design site have you the best experience? (ie, crowdspring, mycroburst, etc)

I wasn't sure which site to ask this on (as Graphic Design hasn't reached beta yet), so I thought I would try here. I'm looking to have a couple logos and website designs done. I've had some great local designers, but each one has moved or gone else where so I keep having to look for new designers. My thought and realization in the last couple days is to go to a crowdsourced design site like crowdspring.com or mycroburst.com. Both of these sites look good, but I'm wondering what else is out there? Are there better ones and how have your experiences been them?

How to weaken spam attacks from XRumer

Though this topic : How do spambots work? is related and enlightening but it talks about general spam logic. Moreover it is really difficult to follow many anti-spam measures mentioned in it in case of CMS based sites like Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress since tickering code requires special expertise. Just like we concentrate on Google for SEO, we should concentrate on Xrumer specifically. It is so much of trouble that in my sites I've even disabled typing http word in comments but still I receive many test comments( like Xrumer testing ...). Looks like Xrumer is the chief culprit of spam attacks. It is most sophisticated spam software I guess. If we can make our sites immune to this software only I guess 90% of attacks can be averted. It is so much of trouble that in my sites I've even disabled typing http word in comments but still I receive many test comments( like Xrumer testing ...) Does anybody have internal insights/weaknesses of this software which we can use to prevent the attack.


Best way to have both HTTP and HTTPS communication in a web application?

I am considering using both HTTP and HTTPS in a web application and I am looking for tips to accomplish this best. The application will run under Tomcat. I have also seen the following about HTTPS performance. Can anyone confirm the claims made in this post (i.e., SSL/TLS is not computationally expensive any more)? Do you agree? Thanks!


Why is godaddy HTTPS/SSL certification so much cheaper than digicert, thawte, and verisign?

I am a novice on HTTPS/SSL but GoDaddy charges $12.99 and Digicert, thawte, and Verisign charge $100-1000+ for SSL certificates. I must be missing something on the quality of the encryption or something. Can someone explain some of the basic differences that lead to these dramatically different prices? **Update** $12.99 is a sale price. Typically SSL certificates cost $89.99 on GoDaddy. Here's a link on Godaddy which makes the very comparison this question asks about: http://www.godaddy.com/Compare/gdcompare_ssl.aspx?isc=sslqgo002c thanks, tim

A tool that logs inbound links to a specified list of sites?

I'm doing some competitor analysis for one of our sites and working with a site based in an unfamiliar industry, I'm basically analysing the backlinks to our competitors. What would be useful is a tool that would take a list of sites and then return a list of backlinks to all of them - with anything else like pagerank (and other useful stats) of backlinking pages. Does such a tool exist?


Am I violating AdSense TOS by allowing Google Translate widget to translate into unsupported languages?

**DETAILS** I want to use a Google Translate widget/plugin on my website. The website is written in English and has AdSense code embedded in it. The website is aimed at a global market, but because of the niche I expect them to use English. Despite that, I'd like to make translation available to all those who need it. **QUESTION** Am I violating adsense TOS by allowing google translate widget to translate into unsupported AdSense languages? Do I have to restrict the languages that can be translated to adsense supported languages only?

Using Google Places reviews as testimonials on a site - would that be considered duplicate content?

We've got quite a few Google Places / Google local reviews from our clients which is great, but we'd like to display some of them on our website under a 'testimonials' section. Ideally I would just copy and paste them into the site, but I was thinking this may be flagged as duplicate content. Any thoughts on the best way to handle this, or does any one know if Google allows you to republish your own reviews on your own site? Another way I was thinking of doing it was to copy and paste the reviews into Photoshop, format them how I want, and then export them as a `.png` (because they create crisper lines than `.jpg`), but this is not ideal.


Removing CAPTCHA is harmful for my forms?

Blocking pages from being crawled with specific URL encoded parameters

While seeing the Google Webmaster Tools report there are certain URL encoded parameters like `%5c` and `%22` coming up in URL's of site. We tried to identify the issue and observed that due to incorrect structure in two of the links having \" (forward slash and ") were created in the site, which has now been corrected. We have removed and corrected these, but we feel that Google is now crawling some of the pages with forward slash and `%22`, which are coming up in Webmaster Tools as duplicate URL's. Is there any way through _robots.txt_ , through Google Webmaster Tools, or through _.htaccess_ to let Google know not to follow links or crawl pages with a forward slash or `%22` in it? The site is built upon the Joomla CMS platform.

Should I notify 'under construction' websites to crawlers? If yes how?

I am currently developing a website which is going to take some time to finish. I need to move some 'stuff' to production frequently, while maintaining a `under construction` status. My front page will clearly mention that my website is under construction. I know crawlers will access my URL before I am ready to go live. Should I tell them my site is under construction (no need to index)? If yes how? P.S.: Eventually, I am ok to let them see my under construction front page.


Is it possible to animate JPGs?

This may sound ridiculous, but I'm curious as to how this image on imgur is animated: http://i.imgur.com/VnPVF.jpg and yet still appears to be a JPG file, not a GIF. Is it server side? It's viewing the straight file, and so it can be using any JavaScript or other to fulfill this. Any ideas?


eShop product urls SEO, with or without category folder

What product url is better from SEO perspective for an eShop               www.site.com/main-category/sub-category/sub-category2/product-name.html     www.site.com/products/product-name.html     www.site.com/product-name.html      Some people state that the last one since you make that page more important to the root of the domain. I would think its more logical to have them like the 1st. What do you guys think? Does this really matter for SEO?


Domain appears taken when searched from a different host, but whois says 'No match'

I have recently registered a new `.name` domain. It is just `myfirstname.name`, something like `nanda.name`. My debit card has been billed, but my domain control panel doesn't show any information regarding the new domain. I have raised a ticket with their support and there is no response yet. It's been 3 days. I checked some other registrars and almost all of them say that `nanda.name` is taken, but when I search whois either from my command line or the numerous whois web services, I get `No match` as answer each time. What gives? PS : I should add that this registrar's support is known to suck, which, by the time I found, is a bit late.

CTR for a specific button that has an event label on given page from Google Analytics

Beneficial to optimize rel="canonical" pages as well as original?

For pages that have `rel="canonical"` and are duplicates of other pages on my site, does it make sense to optimize those pages? Would optimize the duplicate page with `rel="canonical"` in terms of the title tag and including keywords help the page that the rel canonical is pointing to when it comes to SEO. For example, if I had a page called dogs1 and another page called dogs2 with `rel="canonical"` pointing to dogs1. Would optimizing dogs2 help dogs1 with SEO? **Clarification:** I know link juice is passed using `rel="canonical"` so in terms of external SEO, the answer would probably be yes, but in terms of internal SEO like keywords and optimizing titles, would it still be benefical?


Is it good to have ONLY social login in my website?   I am developing a website and planning to implement only social login for users, instead of having own user register/login form.   I think that I can avoid user registration, login, forgot password forms in my website if I use only social login.      Is my thought right?   what are the pros and cons to have only social login?      My website is not for commercial purpose, it's for entertainment purpose like social sharing and some private stuffs for a user. (PHP/MySql)


Best way to protect public facing development environments?

We're in the process of setting up individualized dev environments for our developers. All of our developers are remote and we don't have a VPN or anything to bring this in house. But here's the question... Our public facing site is domain.com, our beta site is domain.net. Each developer has their own subdomain, IE. peter.domain.net, robert.domain.net, etc. For larger projects we have things like commerce.domain.net, all of them are connected to our github repositories and we do automated pushes to our beta site at domain.net where we have a group of members who act as QA for us to help test. The question is, how can we protect the developer environments from public access while still allowing ALL of the developers access to each others dev environment? I don't think .htpasswd or .htaccess rewrites are the way to go as we don't want developers to need to remember a password, nor do we want all of the developers to share the same password. Any thoughts would be appreciated.


301 for many domains

We have a main website for a big company, let's say `www.tartempion.com`. We bought about 60 domain names (let's say `www.tartempion.org`, `www.tartempion.se` but also `www.strangename.net`), mainly to avoid that domain squatters do it. Is it a good idea to have 301 redirects for all those domains, or would it be better to have no content at all? Can I find some authoritative documentation on the subject?

How does mathjax equations affect seo? Would inserting images of my equations instead be better?

From an SEO perspective, would it be better to just upload an image of an equation rather than using mathjax to display that equation. The reason I ask is because I rendered an equation on my site using mathjax, and found that a huge amount of code with a lot of inline css is produced to represent that equation:

<nobr>V=43πr3</nobr>

      Here is an image of the amount of code that is (it's basically one page on a word file with font calibri size 11): ![image of the line-wrapped source code](http://i.stack.imgur.com/4NuiU.png) I think the above is bad seo, and that I'm better off just including an image of the equation, but I couldn't find too many sources on the matter (just one: http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-127057.html) and am wondering what you guys think.


Issues with web hosting at home

I want to host a small personal website at home. One basic problem I am hitting is, From inside home network, I cannot access my domain name. I have to use the local ip (something like 192.168.1.4) to access the website. This ip is the desktop which is hosting the website. Because of this mapping, I have issues setting up a simple wordpress blog on it too. How do I get past this issue? **edit:0** when I try to access www.example.com (my domain) from within my home network, I get redirected to my router login. PS: 1) I am using dyndns service to map my non-static ip to my domain name. 2) My portforwarding works fine.


What's the legal way to stream music online?

It's really hard getting a definite answer on this so I'm going to ask it here. Is there a legal way to stream new music on a website without getting artist consent first. There seems to be a lot of popular sites like hotnewhiphop.com doing this that are hosting from both the US and Canada so I'm guessing there is a grey area that allows it. For the record I don't allow downloads of the music and simply stream each song in a player.


Making one exclude cookie for multiple google analytics sites

I've got multiple sites all with different google analytics profiles in them (managed under one account). I would like to exclude everyones traffic in the office from all the sites. To do this when we clear the cookies / get a new device we have to go to the page on each site that has the exclude cookie this is fine but when you have to do it 6 times for each machine its a bit tedious. Is there a way to have one cookie for all sites? Because both the cookie and the tracking code need to be on the same page would it be possible to have one page with all the tracking codes on it and all the cookies so that it would simultaneously exclude our traffic from all sites?


Setting Nameservers to New Website Host While Maintaining External Email Host

I'm setting up a website for the company I work for and I've just purchased a hosting account. They already own their own domain name, but they have an external mail service they would like to keep using. Right now the nameservers for their domain are pointed at the email host, but in order for the website to work, they need to be pointed at the site host. How do I go about switching the nameservers to point to the site while maintaining their email setup? It's obviously going to be pretty important that their email service is not affected through this process, so I don't want to mess anything up. Thanks


Images are being filtered on a generic site that shares the same IP address with an adult site

I recently addressed the community to understand why normal images are being filtered by Google Image Search. I have several sites placed on the same server (and that they all definitely share the same IP address) and one of those sites has _Adult_ content on it. I am now assuming that the filtering problem might be caused by the fact that the generic site shares the same IP address as the adult site. If I remove the adult site from being hosted or from this IP address, will it solve my filtering problem for the rest of my sites? What else can I do besides the removal of mentioned adult site from that IP address?


Stop bots from crawling old links with extensions

I've recently switched to MVC3 which is extension-less for the URL's, but Google and Bing have a wealth of links that they are crawling which no longer exist. So I'm trying to find out if there is a way to format robots.txt (or by some other method) to tell google/bing that any link that ends in an extension isn't a valid link... Is this possible? On pages that I'm concerned about a User having saved as a fav I'm displaying a 404 page that lists the links to take once they are redirected to the new page (I decided to not just redirect them as I don't want to maintain these forever). For Google/Bing sake I do have the canonical tag in the header.               User-agent: *     Allow: /     Disallow: /*.*      EDIT: I just added the 3rd line (in text above) and it APPEARS to do what I'm wanting. Allow a path, but disallow a file. Can anyone confirm this?


Is using feedburner still a must for blog feeds?

I'm setting up a blog for my OSS/startup and I'm wondering whether using Feedburner for blog feeds is still the recommended way to go?

SEOMoz: Domain Authority Score

SEOMoz offers a metric called 'domain authority' which appears to be based on 'trusted' sites like wiki, .gov domains, and the like which link to your site. How seriously should this be taken and what practical steps can one take to build up domain authority beyond wiki entries and such. Also is SEOMoz worth the price of entry or are there free alternatives?


"Thank you for posting. Please stand by while you are redirected." Needed?

> Thank you for posting. Please stand by while you are redirected. > > If you are not automatically redirected, please click here. You're probably familiar with messages like these, especially when using the web in the 90s or early 2000s. In my own projects, I've never found a reason to make the user wait for 2-3 seconds while they are redirected after registration or posting something, for example. But this pattern comes up all the time, even in popular web software like PHPBB. My question is, does redirection still have a place/need in modern (ajaxy) web development? Are there any situations that absolutely require redirection like this, ultimately annoying the user, and **what are the technical reasons behind them**? Why not just redirect instantly if a redirect is required?


Predefined code styles or css library

How can I automate retrieval of MySQL databases from shared hosting which disallows remote MySQL connections?

my situation is the following:   * I need to do an automated backup of a database   * I have only FTP access, PhpMyAdmin, and PHP So:   * No SSH means I can't use mysqldump   * No Perl (and no cron) means I cannot call the mysqldumper cron script Do you know any tool which would do an unassisted backup of a database? By unassisted I mean that I would like to call it using a curl command for example... I will be setting up a VPS probably in the near future, but for the moment I am stuck with this provider!


Why does Google Reader only update our site's RSS feed once every 4-5 days?

We have a website with a RSS feed. When I use Google Reader to subscribe to the feed, it is only updated once in a while - something like every 4-5 days. In Google Reader the latest 2 or 3 posts appear at the same time. I have setup an quick test script that downloads the RSS feed every hour, so that I could monitor, that the feed is updated as expected. And everything looks good, when I just download the feed. I'm beginning to believe that the cause for this behavior in Google Reader is to do with Googles RSS crawler, feedfetcher. When I look at Date Received and Date Published - Google Reader differentiate between Date Received and Date Published - Date Received is the same for the 2 or 3 posts, and Date Published matchtes the pubDate in the feed. This leads me to believe that Google's RSS crawler, feedfecther, doesn't crawl the RSS feed more that something like every 4-5 days. What are your experiences with Google feedfetcher? Is it expected to have this kind of latency? (I haven't looked at the server logs yet, but that would be a logically next step.)

Why am I getting far less traffic than the Google Keywords traffic estimate suggests?

I identified a search term that is quotes as having millions of global searches per month on Google keywords tool. Local searches also account for a large chunk of that. It was a long term goal to get on page 1 for that term, and now we've hit it. We were page 2, #1 for a while now we've just managed to get #6/7 on page 1. I've tested it with &pws=0 in the search, and also via a USA proxy all which have it nicely on page 1. I'm observing around 4-5 hits a day from this term now, which comes out to around 150 a month. I'm not complaining, 1,800 potential new customers a year is great! But I was expecting considerably more. Can anyone help explain why this might be? I can't really tell you what the term is I'm afraid. (I know that's not ideal)


Seekins statistics package which shows IP address and browser version

I am looking at my AwStats results and see 11% of my visits are from MS IE 6. That sounds weird, and I would like to find out who it is. I suspect that if I can find a statistics package which shows IP address and browser version then I will see that all of those hits come from one IP address (or range) and I can try to figure out who and encourage them to upgrade. I would like to recode my website in HTML 5, but can't do so if I have to spend the extra effort. I _could_ just detect the browser version and display some text encouraging browser upgrade, but would like to find out who it is. Any advice? Thanks in advance


How should I deal with user agent parsing in logs?

My web app project includes logging functionality so we can see where visitors are coming from (referrer URL), what the popular user agents are, what pages are most popular, etc. The log is stored in SQL Server, and when I query the user agents I use a large (almost 100 lines) and growing CASE statement to separate the user agents using string matching (i.e. if the user agent contains the string "Firefox/9" then it's Firefox 9). Is there a better way to do this so I don't have to continually add to that CASE statement to deal with new browser releases? Also, how should I deal with less common, weird/unknown user agents? I've seen the following in the logs and been unable to find good information online about what they are:   * `WordPress/3.3.1; http://www.facecolony.org`   * `Mozilla/4.0 ( http://www.hairirons.org redips; <a href=http://hairirons.org/>chi hair iron</a>)` I'd guess they're bots/crawlers, but the sites they point to don't appear to reference web crawlers (or even be available sometimes). I've seen other user agents aren't familiar to me, but I know they're bots because they include "bot" or "spider" or something similar in them.


Google indexed URLs both w/ or w/o trailing slash

Okay, this is very weird, Google indexed my pages and some are duplicates (one w/ the trailing slash, and one without). Is this bad for SEO? The URL's are like:               site.com/posts/indexed-post/     site.com/posts/indexed-post


Is it a bad practice to use self-signed SSL certificates?

SSL certificates are pretty expensive for individuals, especially if you need to secure different subdomains. I am considering using self-signed certificates, as my primary focus is to secure the connection, and not to authenticate myself. However, several browsers display nasty warnings when encountering such a certificate. Would you discourage the use of self-signed certificates (for example for small web application or the admin page of a small website) ? Or is it OK in some cases ?

More over the .carrier container has to be inside the .footer container! I tried to set the z-index of the of the .carrier container to +1... which didn't work. Of course i could set the z-index of the .content container to +1 to let the footer (with z-index 0) container slip under the content area but that again has an impact on the navigation and other containers at the top of the page... Thanks in advance


GA is not tracking in renewed site

A week ago I renewed my site to simple PHP site to -> DRUPAL 7. I've even transferred the GA script using DRUPAL GA plugin. However, yet GA doesn't track the visitors in my new site. Could anyone please let me know how can I resolve it. Here is the URL http://www.icpasrilanka.com/


Rich snippets for home page with last entries

I've added rich snippets for single posts in a blog. My question is: what should I add to the home page with the last posts? Here the `"entry-title"` and `"entry-description"` seem to be the only two which make sense (web title and web description). Am I right?


Using Google Webmaster Tools "change of address" feature for HTTP to HTTPS migration

I'm trying to use change of address in Google Webmaster Tools, and I've followed the instructions and set a 301 redirect for all requests to HTTPS. My site has always used HTTP with a 301 for no-www, and now it's HTTPS with a 301 for HTTP/no-www. I added both HTTP and www. as sites in Webmaster Tools, so that I could switch to HTTPS. However, Google keeps telling me: "Your account doesn't contain any sites we can use for a change of address. Add and verify the new site, then try again." I can't use "Fetch as Google" because of the redirect, and the inability to change address to HTTPS. Can anyone shed some light on this?


Can't connect to my website

I'm unable to connect to my site http://grantschneider.com (also the site where it is hosted http://2freehosting.com) from my home computer. I'm able to access both from the office, though. I've tried:   * ipconfig/release+renew+dnsflush   * resetting the router   * tracert (which times out for this site, but not for another site I have hosted at 2freehosting) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!


Google AdWords vouchers - can I use several of them?

I have a website for example `www.site.com`, I got also a Google AdWords account, and I got some vouchers from many of my friends around the world. Now I'm wondering if I can use all these vouchers to promote my website in my AdWords champaign since they are some from USA and some from UK, and as far as I know they should be used in the country were you got them.


Name of this "sleek single column" web design?

By now I have seen this kind of one column, simple, sleek and probably responsive-friendly design over 20 times already. Example : https://www.paypal.com/cy/webapps/mpp/home http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/moto-x/Moto-X/FLEXR1.html https://onlycoin.com/ I wondered is there a name for this design? Since when did it started to get this popular? Everyone seems to adopting it, especially for product page with each section showing product's feature.


wordpress.com vs wordpress.org SEO

I keep reading that the SEO will be much better if you have a self-hosted wordpress.org blog versus a wordpress.com blog. The main concepts that I know of in SEO are:   1. Relevant keywords in the text of the article   2. sites linking to your sites with the same keywords   3. h1/h2 tags   4. Relevant title   5. Relevant URL   6. meta tags Now as far as I know 1-5 are catered for with a wordpress.com blog. On top of that its set up for making Google/Bing find you. So a wordpress.com blog will automatically submit all your posts to all the search engines - you have to install all your own plugins for wordpress.org and there's no guarantee you're doing it right. I realise this question is similar to the one on SEO Implications of blog on site versus offsite?. I think that shows that 2 is no different whether is wordpress.com/.org [Edit] Further to this I've found the Google statement that they ignore the meta keywords tag, so its only the meta description tag that can be added with a wordpress.org SEO plugin. So does anyone have some (preferably quantifyable) reasons why the SEO should be so much better on wordpress.org?

How can I change my site's meta tags using fatcow.com site builder?

I am a newbie to website work. I am on the board of a new non-profit, and have been given the task of getting the website up and running. We elected a package from Fatcow.com that gives hosting and most services, cheap, but the only downside is the drag-and-drop style builder. Of course without this builder, I would not have the page up already. The downside to the builder is that it is hard, if not impossible, to edit the tags I need to in the actual code. I have a copy of the Google Webmaster starter guide, and want to set meta-tags for each page on the site, however, I cannot find a function on fatcow to allow me access to read the code behind the pages. Can anyone tell me how else to access the code for manual editing?


Does Google cache stylesheets?

Hey guys, we all know that Google caches the HTML of pages, but does it cache the corresponding CSS as well? I ask because a site I used to have and have since closed down is still in the cache and there's a CSS setup I had on it that I need to replicate on another site now. I can view the cached HTML but that doesn't help me because I don't remember what I did with the CSS. So, does Google cache the CSS and if so, how do I view it? For those who will ask why I don't just look at my source code for the other site, I don't currently have it on my laptop and I'm not quite sure where the archive is at the moment...


Changing mod_rewrite "file exists" checks to not see directories as files

I have the following mod_rewrite rules set up:               RewriteEngine on     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f     RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php      This works fine, allowing me to use "nice" URIs (like www.mysite.com/about instead of www.mysite.com/about.php. However, when I have both a directory and a file with the same name (for example /products and products.php, this breaks as apache just redirects to the directory. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks,


SEO effect of adding iframes to my website

I have 2 websites, in one of them that has a fairly good number of views (50,000 pageview / day) I have added an iframe that shows my other website. I did this a few days ago but my second website ranking is getting worse and worse. Is what I have done useful? Is it legal?


Sitemap with pages missing better than no sitemap at all?

I've inherited a site built with a CMS I'm not familiar with. I've created new pages for the site and I can see they do appear in a html sitemap, but not the xml sitemap. Assuming I can't add the pages to the xml sitemap, should I delete the xml sitemap or leave it in place but with pages missing?


Sitemaps index submission

I have two questions regarding site maps: 1) Currently my site has around 5,000 pages. However, in the future it will contain more than 50,000 pages. Should I start using sitemap-index with only one sitemap listed at the current time? Or should I use a sitemap and when I pass the 50,000 limit add a sitemap-index file with 2 sitemaps listed? Does it even matter?? 2) Should I re-submit sitemap through Google webmasters tools every time I add a new URL? Or does it check it automatically? Joel


Linking users to third party site - JavaScript or post?

I have a site with which third party sites ask me to put up their links within my search results and they monitor the traffic coming to them. My question is, should I make an effort to make sure robots don't click these links, or am I better just leaving them as normal clickable links that robots can follow. If I leave them as normal links then they will probably get much more traffic to their site but the actual conversions will be lower. If I make them javaScript links or post links, then the bots shouldn't be able to follow them, so only users get transfered. Any feedback on which route I go down would be much appreciated.

Why do I lose my Pagerank after a 301 redirect?

As we all know, Google treats sub-domains as completely separate domains so we have to fight for both, to get ranked in search results. One of my client's websites had `example.com` and `blog.example.com`. So to keep all the stuff in one place, we redirected `blog.example.com` to `example.com/blog/` But in this case, we lost our Pagerank and are still wondering where we went wrong. Maybe it just takes more time to show up. What is the reason behind this?


Photo management utilities

I'm about to develop a web site for a new client. It's not going to be very intense, but one requirement is that, if possible, the client wants to be able to manage the photo gallery themselves. Since they are not technically savvy at all, I was wondering what utilities exist that provide a GUI for users to log in to manage photos. Can anyone make a recommendation? I haven't purchased the web hosting yet, so if your answer requires a specific type of host server don't worry, I am open to options.


Can I enrich microdata format with more data without affecting its functionality?

This is the normal formatting for microdata:

some text

some description

             Rosary Arms 12             90210              Beverly Hills             San Fransisco              USA

      Now, when a users searches for all businesses in San Fransisco, I want to format each result with this microdata (I'm assuming this is allowed btw and not that Google only accepts 1 microdata 'instance' on a page). But in the search result of 1 result I have more data than is currently needed for microdata. For example, I have 3 images per search result, rates of this business, opening hours and much more.   Now I was wondering if I can just place this extra data within this microdata without affecting its functionality, for example:

some text

         Hourrate: $120

some description

             Rosary Arms 12             90210              Beverly Hills             San Fransisco              USA

Opening hours:
             Monday-Friday: 8AM - 6PM
             Saturday: 10AM - 5PM
             Sunday:Closed


email server services for websites

I have a growing website and I don't want to deal with setting up a mail server to send emails through. Currently I am using Google Apps and sending emails via a Java program that I wrote. However, it seems Google has certain restrictions against that. Is there a list of email server providers out there. One where we can point our DNS MX record and send emails via an API?


Magento Bulk Product Import + Modules Nightmare

1. Have 5,000 products in CSV file   2. File has been re-saved as UT8 file in google documents and exported to CSV from excel   3. File loads perfectly with all fields in demo of magento store manager (except we dont want to buy it:)   4. When trying to upload in regular Magento..keep getting error messages on column duplicates....yes we have hundreds of duplicates as the titles of products in fields correspond with different sizes, etc...no way around it   5. Any solutions around this or any open source software similar to store manager that can do the trick. Ready to give up and go to paid solution such as Big Commerce   6. Also, Uploaded a bunch of free modules/keys...of open source bulk import products from magentocommerce but I cant find them anywhere in the main admin panel to use...there is no menu item for them anywhere??


Domain name registrar which provides an api for registration?

I am looking for a domain name registrar which provides an api for registration. I want to register domain names programmatically. I don't want registrars which sell packages for resellers or affiliates or merchants where you have to pay some amount upfront or register a minimum number of domains/month. I just want a free use of the api. Otherwise I will have to do it through clunky screen scraping. I expect to register 0-20 domains/month. The domain registration will be part of an automated web hosting ordering system.

Can't get heroku site updated on custom domain

I have hosayif.com registered at GoDaddy, and I set up a cname for rails.hosayif.com to point to my heroku app at sharp- meadow-6535.herokuapp.com. I set this up with a previous app, and it worked. I made a new app, renamed the old one, and then renamed the new one so that it is sharp- meadow-6535.herokuapp.com in hopes of not having to change anything at GoDaddy. In theory, rails.hosayif.com and sharp-meadow-6535.herokuapp.com should be the same site, but they are not. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?


Comments Application SEO

I am developing a commenting application. Users will be able to integrate this application in Blogs. I am unsure how to make the comments searchable in Search Engines. What I want is all the comments which are being posted should be included in Search Engine results when searched with relevant keywords. Please give me some hint how to do this. Do I need to use meta tags ? If so, how should I create them?


Password protected website

I need to add a user authentication page before the actual homepage of the website. In Joomla! I just set the website offline and the offline page loads in place of the homepage but then it's automatically throwing a "503 Service Temporarily Unavailable" error which I would like to avoid. That's why I would like to know the other ways to load an authentication page before the homepage. NB: I'm using Apache servers if that's relevant Thank you


Can creating a duplicate site for testing and upgradation can cause duplicate content

Considering upgrade of CMS to latest version- the process may take anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks. May suggest - we need to work on live server, what we have planned:   * take exact replica of site and move to a test domain, but on live server   * Block Google, Bing, Yahoo - `User-agent: Google Disallow: /`, `User-agent: Bing Disallow: /`, `User-agent: Yahoo Disallow: /` in _robots.txt_   * Will upgrade CMS and add functionality - will test the entire structure, check URLusing xenu and move on to configure the site on original domain The process upgradation and new tools may take 2 to 4 weeks.... Concern is that despite blocking Google, Bing & Yahoo through                  User agent disallow       can still the URLof test site can be crawled by the search engines - if yes - it may hurt the original site as will read on as entire duplicate or is there any alternate way around.


Self signed SSL certificate with a wild card - works for sub domain, fails for the main domain

For development purposes I created a self signed SSL certificate where CN = `*.example.com`. After installing the certificate, when browsing to any sub domain `https://sub.example.com` I got the nice green lock indicating that everything is OK, but when browsing to `https://example.com` I still keep getting an error. The browser says: "Server's certificate does not match the URL" How can I resolve this issue so I will have 1 certificate that is valid for both all sub-domains and the main domain.


My website has sitelinks but doesn't have a search box below it; is there anything I can do?

Is there a way to add embedded youtube videos to my website sitemap?

The goal is to make embedded youtube videos appear in video search results as part of my website. I searched very extensively how to do this; I found through google some articles that claim that it's possible, but they are old and that method no longer works. Youtube seems to have intentionally changed their website to prevent other people from including their videos in external sitemaps. To create the sitemap I would need two things:   * The URL of YouTube's flash player. This should be easy enough.   * This is the hard part: the URL of the .flv of the video. For http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE88ZYstEHc it is `http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=cE88ZYstEHc&t=vjVQa1PpcFMQCaCarYkjDrCDJyqOQ_cXrG5ulMRoDY8=` .  The "t" which is the tricky part. How can I obtain it? Also, am I doing something unethical? If I manage to do this will google and/or youtube be annoyed at me? The YouTube videos are mine.

Google+ and SEO: +1 button or follow button / profile badge on a new website?

I am starting a new website, and I expect only to have few daily visitors for the first month. I know how +1s on the different pages could help the rank of that specific page in Google search. but we also know that each follower to the Google+ page also counts as a +1 for the linked homepage. Considering the age of website and its few visitors, I wonder if I should include a +1 button on each page, or if it would be better to include a profile badge or follow button on each page and focus all the benefit on the homepage and Google+ page? I know I could use all buttons and badge together, but I don't want to confuse the visitors with too many options. **In other words, for a new website, is it enough to only make the homepage popular on Google, or should we do this for all pages from the beginning?**


How can I prevent Google from mixing different languages in my sitelinks?

I have a web site in two different languages (English and Spanish). It is indexed by Google but, when searched, sitelinks below my result appear mixed with Spanish and English subtitles. Each language is in a different folder (`mydomain.com/en` for pages in English and `mydomain.com/es` for pages in Spanish). Is there a way to help Google to distinguish between them? The Spanish ones should show for the Spanish speakers and the English ones for the rest of users?


Will Google penalize me for hiding header text?

I read this post: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=66353 On my site currently, I have the following:               // site.css     h1{       background: transparent url("/images/mylogo.png") 0 0 no-repeat;     }          h1 span{       display:none;     }          <!-- index.html -->     <h1>       <span> Name of My website </span>     </h1>      My thinking was that by including the text in the header that the HTML would still be well-structured. Since reading that post though, I'm anxious that google may penalise us for hiding text content. Can anybody shed some light on this issue? Is including hidden text in the header beneficial or detrimental (or neither) ?


Adding a CMS to an existing Magento shop

I am working on a project for 3 niche stores built on magento (using magento's multi-store function) that each get roughly 50k unique visitors a day. The sites don't currently have a blog or forum or any social networking aspects. Would like to add a cms to each site that can be centrally run and would like it to take over the front end content from Magento. Also would like it to maintain an online blog/publication of sorts with videos, articles, and the like with privileges to edit the content given to a dozen or so people with different privileges. Want to add a forum to each site that is fairly robust and to possibly add some social networking aspects down the road, so extandability and available plugins/mods in each cms is important. Other than shared login between the forums,blog/publication and store, would like to be able to integrate some content from the forums and blog/publication into the store as well. After researching this a bit, I am inclined towards Drupal, but I haven't found any modules to integrate it with Magento. Also, since the blog content will be done by about a dozen nontechnical people, I want something that is very easy to work with. Lastly, since the site gets a good amount of traffic, speed and security are very important. What CMS would you recommend integrating in this context? Deciding between Drupal, Wordpress and Plone. Thanks.

Can this be achieved with a reverse-proxy?

I have a website that was developed and is hosted on a Windows server (Server A). We want to have these Windows hosted pages to show up on another website that is hosted on a Linux server (Server B). Server A and Server B are not on the same network and managed by two different webmasters. Example: Server A Windows 2003 (upgrading to 2012 this Fall):   1. Domain is `example.com`   2. Example page would be `www.example.com/dir/page.aspx`   3. Example pages would only be used to host pages and visitors would never really visit this site (this domain would never show in their browsers). Server B Linux / Apache:   1. Domain is `www.example2.com`   2. When visitors go to `www.example2.com/dir/page.aspx`, they are actually rendering pages from `www.example.com/dir/page.aspx`, but their browser shows `www.example2.com` Does this make sense? Is this possible?


How does LinkedIn show markup in search results without using schema or microdata markup?

I've noticed LinkedIn search results include the location and job of the person being searched. I've understood using markup such as `schema.org` can create this but when viewing their source, it doesn't seem as if they're using that. Are there other options?


My client wants international bank transfer payment method - do people use it?

My client wants international bank transfer payment method to his eshop. I already implemented PayPal and credit/debit cards gateways. Do you have any experience using bank transfer payment method? I think it's unnecessary because there are high fees on international bank trasfers and people use it only rarely but that's not a fact, that's my though. I have no experience with this. Please give me your opinions. Thanks

Track how many banner clicks lead to sales of the advertised product

On the home page of our online store we have a banner promoting particular product. Clicking that banner takes to the product details page (does not add to the cart). We would like to track how many banner clicks lead to actual sale of that product. If that's not possible, is it possible to track how many banner clicks lead to a sale (regardless if that product is in the cart). We are using Google Analytics. In our situation, we cannot modify the store sources (it is a hosted solution). Only custom javascript can be added to template files.

Google Analytics 'Visits' count sudden jump

I have a site that I've been closely monitoring with Google Analytics. Each day traffic has been gradually increasing, and the #1 source is "Google/Organic". I checked my visit total for 6/20 late in the day yesterday (around 10PM) and it was at ~3000. I checked the visit total for 6/20 yesterday again this morning (around 6AM) and the count had suddenly jumped to over 6000. I don't think the site received the 3000 additional visits between 10PM and 12AM. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? Does GA do some sort of recalc at the end of the day?


Server overhead caused by bots?

I have one customer website causing overhead (`http://www.modacalcio.it/en/by- kind/football-boots.html`). With `htop` opened, I am trying navigate the website and the much load of the website is done by the ajax link being placed on the left side of the website. The website is hosted by a VPS with 3 proc and 2GB RAM, with enough hard with disk space. The real problem is that this website is new and not visited much. From the http-status module I am seeing that the overhead is caused by bots (Google bots, Bing bots, hrefs checker and so on). So I thought that's probably due to those spiders trying to crawl all those links at once - could this be causing this overhead? I have also put `rel="nofollow"` in those links, but this doesn't keep the bots away. Is there any way through code or Plesk to disable those links to those bots?


When can I remove directory validation script?

When I apply to add my website to a directory, it asks to add some script to my homepage or index page to validate the website. At what point can I remove this script? I want to add my site to various directories, but don't want to add lines of script to be there permanently. I'm assuming it is just for the initial validation and can be removed after submitting the site..?


How is fluid theme's impact on rendering performance?

I am new to responsive design and now re-making a template to make it more responsive. This involves redefining many fixed width and fonts as context- dependent percentage (% or em) instead of pixels in css. So I am wondering how does all these new added calculations affect the rendering time of pages, regarding that now most elements values needs to be calculated, and mobile processors which are the target devices are far less powerful than a typical Desktop cpu. Will the effect be sensible on most devices? If yes, how much? I appreciate if you also could refer me to the relevant benchmarks/studies. Thanks


How to display combined stats for multiple domains in Google Analytics

I run multiple domains that are not related to each other and are all tracked by Google Analytics on separate web properties (different tracking code, same Google Account). I am wondering if there is a way by which I could view all of the stats combined (e.g. total pageviews, visitors, or even total real-time users browsing all of my sites right now). I don't mind connecting my Google Analytics account with 3rd party apps which would analyse the data. With the real-time viewer stats I could then perhaps estimate the capacity of my web server. Otherwise, simply knowing how many people visited your site this month, without having to manually add all stats together, is something that is nice to know and allows you to see your overall performance of your sites.


Can't get Rewrite rule to keep original URL

I have these Rewrites, but I would like to have the URL stay the same as what is typed originally, I thought removing the [R] flags would stop it but it hasn't               RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^examplea\.example\.com$ [NC]     RewriteRule (.*) http://examplea.example.com:32400/web [L]          RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^exampleb\.example\.com$ [NC]     RewriteRule (.*) http://exampleb.example.com:9091 [L]      Edit: would this work better?               RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^hello.example.com$      RewriteRule ^(/)?$ welcome [L]


How to forward a domain on IIS on windows 7

Briefly my question is about combining my registered domain with the websites listening on port 80/8080 on my server. I have a web server IIS on windows 7 and two web sites listening on port 80 and 8080. I have successfully forwarded any incoming request to port 80 and 8080 to my web server. So everything works like a charm when I try to access these websites entering `http://myglobalip:80/Index.aspx` or `http://myglobalip:8080/Index.aspx` from a computer outside of the local network. So I have a domain registered, lets say `www.mydomain.com`. What steps should I follow in which sequence? What should I consider to do? I need a step by step guide to follow. I have registered my domain on Godaddy's website and only configured forwarding so the domain forward to my webserver but when I attempt to access the web page, It always try and try until It times out.


Why do spammers use CELESTRON NEXTAR 6SE?

I am running a website for a volunteer organization that hosts an annual event. There is a form where people can volunteer to bring items for the event. All too frequently I get spam from users across the globe that enter things like this: > Country - 1: Australia > > Material - 1: CELESTRON NEXTAR 6SE > > Country - 2: Australia > > Material - 2: C8 Newton > > Country - 3: Australia > > Material - 3: ETX 125EC > > Country - 4: Australia > > Material - 4: ETX 125EC > > Country - 5: Australia > > Material - 5: CELESTRON NEXTAR 6SE I don't really care about the country, but what is it with the telescope stuff? Is there some hidden meaning behind all this or is it some astronomy group that moonlights as spammers?


Using Google Analytics to determine whether paid media visitors subsequently return

I'd like to be able to find out whether I am driving returning visits to my site through paid media. E.g. what percentage of people who initially visited for the first time through an advert _now_ return organically? For first time visitors from paid sources (Display, CPC etc):   * Return visit frequency   * % who return

Need help with first website ever!

This is the first website i am making with HTML and CSS. Truly i am learning as I go but I need some questions answered before I write to much incorrect code. First a a little intro about the design i planned for the site so we are on the same page. This is a content heavy website ment for ALOT of reading and will contain about 52 articles. The design will have a fixed navigation on top. The home page will start off with an introduction and below that will be the gird like collection of article modules that will contain a heading, main quote, and a read more link, below that same concept for videos and then my main fooeter. This is for the home page. Question #1: How in the world can I get my articles that I have written on my computer to keep the same formatting once inside of my markup, otherwise I have to mark up each of the 52 articles I have written by hand with p tags, strong tags, ect.. and I cant image doing such a thing considering how long the articles are. Is there a better way? Question #2: I have decided to use percents for layout and ems for fonts and such. I am trying to create some margin space(white space) in between each article module block but I am confused on how to do that because I am using percents and not actual numbers. Question #3: At this point please review my html and css so far and advise me on any changes to make before my code grows to large. Finally the code: HTML:                   <!doctype html>                                 <meta charset="UTF-8">     <title>The Sea Of Glass | A Biblical Understanding of Life</title>     <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/reset.css" type="text/css">

force users to activate account before using service?

i am not sure if this is the correct SE site to post this, but ill go on... So at the moment i force my users to activate their account upon registration if they want to sign in. I see some decent sites let their users sign in and use their features even their account is not activated and just show a message on top of the page letting them know that their account is not yet activated and that you need to activate it. So which practice is best? Should i stick with that i have or change it?


Strange links appearing in 404 logs

I've recently been going through our 404 logs and we have a number of urls which look like this turning up:-               http://www.makejusticework.org.uk/%2B%255BPLM=0%255D%2BGET%2Bhttp:/www.makejusticework.org.uk/%2B%255B0,51217,54078%255D%2B-%253E%2B%255BN%255D%2BPOST%2Bhttp:/www.makejusticework.org.uk/media/roma-hoopers-justice-campaign-blog/prison-expensive-making-people-worse-roger-graef-obe-ceo-films-record-ambassador-justice-work/2012/02/22/%2B%255B0,0,67227%255D      It contains the actual url, which is:-               http://www.makejusticework.org.uk/media/roma-hoopers-justice-campaign-blog/prison-expensive-making-people-worse-roger-graef-obe-ceo-films-record-ambassador-justice-work/2012/02/22/      This blog post relates to a recently redirected url (standard `redirect 301`) hence the concern - can anyone shed any light on this kind of thing?


Is it legal to host very, very detailed summaries of copyrighted material?

I have a website where people can discuss books of various topics, mostly technical and practical stuff. Lately I have noticed that some members are posting very, very detailed summaries/reviews of books. They are basically summarizing the whole book in so much detail that there's no point of buying the book anymore. I know summaries and reviews are of course not infringing content but should I be worried when it goes to this level? I think proper question is that is there any law that prohibits rewriting and distributing core ideas from copyrighted material?


Google image index

we have a few images currently being indexed by google and we want to remove them from the index. We have removed the .aspx page which linked to the image (but the image still physically exists on disk at the same location), so will google now automatcally update its records, to not show our image? Or do I need to delete the image aswell? thanks!


What's the worst that could happen with no Privacy Policy

We build websites, and some that accept user data and/or allow creation of accounts with personal information. What's the worst that could happen if you don't have a Privacy Policy on your website? I know that the site needs one. Also, whats the worst a consumer or parent can do when he/she encounters a site (for adults or children) without a Privacy Policy, apart from complaining to some court or legal authority? Is there a central place for this in the US and other countries?


SEO impact - using subdomains to make a sentence

I'm thinking about playing with subdomains to make "sentences", and I would like to know if there is any impact on SEO. That's easier to explain with examples (those are fake ones and only illustrates the idea):   * Will `http://this.is.a.test/` be disadvantaged comparated to something like `http://this-is-a-test.com/`?   * Will `http://you.can.do.it/` be disadvantaged comparated to something like `http://you-can-do-it.com/`? The idea here would be to buy the domain `do.it` and create the subdomain `can.do.it`, and then `you.can.do.it`. Will it consider `you`, `can`, `do` and `it` as separate words and as an expression? The question is NOT about the impact of country extensions.


Share Web Hosting software packages management

I have a very basic question about web hosting. How will I be able to manage software packages on shared hosting services? For example, some of my python scripts might require the MySQL-Python package, which is of course easily install-able on my own machine, I have sudo permission and can just apt-get install, or pip install. How will web hosting companies manage their software packages? Do I have to install from sources, set paths to specified directories? That would be a PITA. I wanted to know it so I know how I can organize my code so I can migrate my website from my workstation to web hosting companies seamlessly. Again, I know this probably varies from company to company, I am just trying to understand some industrial basics before asking more ignorant questions.


Tracking users behaviour - with or without Google Analytics

If I understand correctly the following (point & from GA TOS):   1. PRIVACY . You will not (and will not allow any third party to) use the Service to track or collect personally identifiable information of Internet users, nor will You (or will You allow any third party to) associate any data gathered from Your website(s) (or such third parties' website(s)) with any personally identifying information from any source as part of Your use (or such third parties' use) of the Service. You will have and abide by an appropriate privacy policy and will comply with all applicable laws relating to the collection of information from visitors to Your websites. You must post a privacy policy and that policy must provide notice of your use of a cookie that collects anonymous traffic data. You are not allowed to use custom variables that will identify the visitor(for example website username, e-mail, id etc.) So the question is how can I track a specific user behaviour(for example the actions that every single logged in user do).


How should we send our e-commerce store's email receipts and receive customer service emails?

My company own a number of e-commerce sites, and we are trying figure out a scalable and effective solution for email. The stores are Django apps on Heroku. Each store needs to be able to send email receipts to customers after a purchase, and customers need to be able to send support emails to a support address. In the past we have used a free Google Apps account set up with our own domain name, created the two email accounts, and sent receipts programmatically through Django. I am not completely pleased with Google Apps for a number of reasons, including customer service and the daily sending limits. I've looked into services like Postmark for sending mail, but of the services I've researched, they all require being able to receive emails at any address you send from. What would I do for receiving email? We want to keep our setup as simple as possible and would prefer to send and receive emails through the same service.


Robots.txt Issue

So I've been assigned to take a look at our SEO (an area I have some, but not amazing competence in), and the first thing I noticed is that our robots.txt file says the following:               # go away     User-agent: *     Disallow: /      Now, I'm pretty competent at reading computer, and as far as I can tell, this says ALL spiders shouldn't look at ANYTHING in the root directory or below. Am I reading this correctly? Because that just seems insane.


Is there any advantage/disadvantage to using robots.txt to disallow access to legal pages such as terms, privacy policy, etc.?

As I understand, having repetitive content is a detriment to search engine placement. Given that many websites that use similar or even identical "Terms and Conditions" and "Privacy Policy" pages due to similar legal wording or due to copy & pasting from the same source, would it be a good idea to disallow access to these pages via robots.txt, in order to avoid being penalized for "non-original content"? Or, on the contrary, could the search engines identify this as circumvention and penalize the site for trying to hide content? Or does it not matter?

Updating to Flex 4, need advice

Our users are older salespeople, most of whom don't understand the concept of a plugin, so telling them to update their flash player is not an option (I have tried in the past). However, updating our application to Flex 4 (from 3.5) is something I would like to atleast plan on doing in the future. The question is, what is the market saturation of flash player 10? What would be the easiest way to determine how many of our users have flash player 10? Any other hints/advice for considering upgrading to flex 4 would be great! Thanks!


www vs non-www ssl certificate?

We have a Drupal 6 shopping cart system that works fine on Apache/cPanel. We had an SSL cert for www.xyz.com through NS which expired 2 days ago. My boss called Network Solutions and they walked through the process, uploading a CSR, etc. and purchased a new cert. But when we tried to -install- the new cert via cPanel it said 'Private Key does not match'. I -think- what happened is that the domain we selected was the non-www version but the CSR was for the www version. NS will allow us to upload a new CSR -but- they won't allow us to change the domain from xyz.com to www.xyz.com and they will not issue a refund. SO...   1. If I install the new SSL cert for the non-www domain, can I make this work by editing .htaccess?   2. Or should I just eat the $249 and purchase a -new- cert for www.xyz.com? I'm paranoid because I don't see any option for 'wild-card' in the NS setup and I don't know enough about Drupal to know if this will matter. TIA.

IE not using AES on Website

I hope I chose the right topic this time :) So: I wanted to disable RC4 and "force" PFS on my website. Without modification, every browser used RC4. As I don't have access to the root directory I did it by modifying the .htaccess file. Note: The server currently only supports TLS 1.0. So I changed the CipherSuite to:               SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM      Which worked fine on every browser, but the IE, which "can't find the address". So I tried it with:               SSLCipherSuite ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:DH+AES:!MD5      Same result here. Just to test if it would work with RC4 i tried it with:               SSLCipherSuite ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:DH+AES:RC4-SHA:!MD5      After this modification, all browsers use AES as cipher. IE now displays the page, but uses RC4 as cipher, even though it should support AES. So, does IE support anything but RC4? I tried to test this with:               SSLCipherSuite ALL:-RC4      Again it can't connect. But: AES works fine on Google/Youtube (TLS 1.2). I tested it on multiple versions of IE and Windows and got the same result everytime I tried to connect. Am I missing something obvious here? Is there anyone who knows why IE won't display my website? Or is my code just completely wrong? Here a list of my supported ciphersuites for reference:               [~]openssl ciphers -v     ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA    SSLv3 Kx=ECDH     Au=RSA  Enc=AES(256)  Mac=SHA1     ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA

Point domain to new host - changed nameservers, now what?

This is driving me nuts, because I know I'm missing something simple. I've read numerous articles/posts about how to point (not transfer) your domain to a new web host. They all say to change the name server settings at your old host, so here is what I did: On old host (1and1.com) changed the name server settings to those of my new host (inmotionhosting.com) like below: Domain name : mydomain.com Name server 1: ns.inmotionhosting.com Name server 2: ns2.inmotionhosting.com ... and confirmed this is active (did it a couple days ago) This is where every post/article I've found stops. They imply this is all that needs to be done. But how does the new host know to point the domain to my account, and the directory in my account I want it work from?? There's go to be something else to be done - just pointing to the generic name servers of the new host can't be all there is to it. Thanks in advance...I'm bewildered...


Should I upgrade from Apache 1.3.x to 2.x?

We are in the middle of setting up a new container to migrate our ever growing web app onto. Primarily to satisfy a security audit, but also to catch up and implement missing/outdated security. The new container currently has Apache 1.3.42 installed, which is the same as what the original container is currently running. Should I be trying to upgrade Apache to 2.x during this process? And am I likely to run into some problems with missing modules. Comparisons turned up in Google are all outdated.


How auto load image work when an status is post to social website?

When posting a status update on social website like facebook.com and linkedin.com which contain an URL, it will automatically scan the images available on the particular website and put it at the front of the status update. May I know how this could be done if I would like to do the same for my web app? Which web framework (JSF, Richfaces, JQuery, ...) should I use in such development? Beside that, is there any pre-build features available in blogger.com or wordpress.com?

Can I add microdata on generated content from CSS?

If I generate content with CSS can I still apply microdata to it in the HTML? Will Schema or RDFa accept an alt or title tag as a value. h1:after,h2:after,h3:after,h4:after,h5:after,h6:after {content:attr(title);display:block;}   h1:before,h2:before,h3:before,h4:before,h5:before,h6:before {content:attr(alt);display:block;}


301 redirect from a country specific domain

I originally started using a `.do` domain extension for my site, but later realized that this country specific domain would prevent us from appearing in search results for places outside of the Dominican Republic. We started using a `.co` domain extension and redirected all requests to the new domain using an HTTP 301. The "Crawl Stats" in Google Webmaster Tools shows me that the `.co` domain is being crawled, but the "Index Status" shows the number of pages indexed at 0. The "Crawl Stats" for the `.do` domain says that it's being crawled and the "Index Status" shows a number greater than 0. I also set a "Change Of Address" in Google Webmaster Tools to have the `.do` domain point to the new `.co` domain. We're still not appearing in search results at all even for very specific strings where I would expect to find us. Am I doing something wrong?


Apache redirecting: reason unknown

I have a simple php script. The script is not important. It just prints out `$_SERVER`. When I request an URL like `www.server.com/?ref=bar` everything is fine. However if the request contains something like `www.server.com/?ref=http://www.test.com` (`?ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.test.com`) the server redirects to _403.shtml_. No redirect for http://x but redirects http://x.y As far as I can understand somehow the server doesn't like "http://x". It always redirects to _403.shtml_ when there is a valid query string in the form of a valid url. my .htacess file is the same both on my server and local test server and local test server behaves as expected (no redirects). So I don't it is related to .htaccess. I'm on shared host on Hostgator. Can anyone help? **Edit:** Here's the .htaccess file               Options +FollowSymLinks          RewriteEngine On     RewriteBase /          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d          RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L,QSA]      When there is an http://xx.x it redirects to 403 even if there is physical file. However if I remove the .htaccess redirect to 403 also disappears. But I need the above .htaccess file. Is there a way to get around this?


Can domain masking be used to move content from a subdomain to a subdirectory?

* `example.com` is hosted on IP address c.c.c.c at host1, no access any windows server admin at all   * `blog.example.com` is on IP a.a.a.a at host2, full access to Linux server admin, using WordPress So basically, I can fiddle with subdomain all I want. I can't 301 redirect because the content on host 1 is an eCommerce site that I have no server control over. Can't put WordPress on it, can't run scripts, can't do anything on the server period. Is there a method to "mask" all the URLs on root `blog.example.com` so they appear as `example.com/blog/` folder? They can't actually be sent to `example.com/blog/` as that doesn't exist. It just needs to look to the surfer as if they are there. Can this be done with some kind of masking or something? Will this be better for SEO as hopefully search engines will see the blog in a directory on the main domain?


“Insufficient content” - AdSense
