WOW Now PR 5
Posted by admin
Yes 15 months ago I created a web directory which is now PR 5.
I have many other sites and many directories that I own. But out of them all, I love that directory of mine the most. Because it has seen the bad and good days.
Even have to change the server due to extra traffic that has started pouring in from the search engines.
Squidoo lens for Deeplinking

Created a squidoo lens for getting in some good deep incoming links for the sites.
One of the example can be seen here: http://www.squidoo.com/domains_forums/
You can also create your own squidoo lens and get some backlinks for inner pages of your sites. There is more to it. Like groups, lensroll, ratings and other stuff.

Web Hosting
Posted by admin
A webhosting service allows companies to make their own websites accessible via the world wide web. Web Hosting companies provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity normally in a datacenter. Webhosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center called colocation.
There are different types of webhosting services. In shared webhosting, your site is placed on the same server as many other sites, ranging from a few hundred sites to thousands of websites. All sites may share a common pool of server resources like RAM and CPU. In reseller hosting, you can resell the webspace you bought to clients for hosting their websites. In dedicated webhosting service, the user gets his or her own web server and gains full control over it - root access in case of linux hosting and administrator access in case of windows hosting.
Dedicated servers are the best choice for resource extensive websites. While on the other hand shared hosting are best options for small to medium sized businesses. Webmasters and domainers who own more then 5 or 10 websites and the sites are not using much resources then they can go with the reseller hosting plans

Well a very good friend of mine is participating in this contest. Cpayscom2 Online Casino
I met him last sunday and we both talked about some SEO contest and other things. But work is work and we had to part so that we both can again sit on our boxes and start typing in our millionth characters.
Mozilla (The free alternative to Internet Explorer)
Posted by admin
Web browsers are something that many take for granted, and currently the most popular browser is Internet Explorer (IE). But alternatives are still there, and one of the most eagerly awaited is Mozilla 1, an open-source project that grew from AOL’s takeover of Netscape. In fact, Netscape 7 is based on Mozilla.
Mozilla will run on a pretty low-spec machine, including versions of Windows that won’t run the latest IE. It’s a also available for lots of other platforms too, including Mac OS X and Linux. Installation is straightforward, though Windows and Linux users will need to install Java support separately; you can visit a Java-enabled site and the browser will do most of this for you.
If you’ve used Netscape 6, you’ll be familiar with Mozilla’s sidebar, where you can have search tools, buddy lists and news tickers. There’s also a mail and newsgroup tool, which supports Imap as well as POP3, so you can use Mozila for all your needs - though frankly the mail’s not as capable as Eudora or Outlook Express. The look and feel is OK, but perhaps not as slick as IE or commercial alternatives.
An oft-cited reason for sticking with IE is that most sites work best with it; but Mozilla doesn’t encounter anything more than a minor Javascript glitch, and has no problems with script-intensive sites, or online banking, but that’s not to say you’ll never have problems. With AOL likely to switch to using the guts of Mozilla, compatibility will be less of an issue.
Speed seems comparable to IE. If you’re looking for an alternative to IE, or something that runs on all the systems, Mozilla 1 is worth a serious look.

50 ways to get a backlink.
Posted by admin
1. Build a “101 list”. These get Dugg all the time, and often become “authority documents”. People can’t resist linking to these (hint, hint). Like mine at (URL address blocked: See forums rules) I did a PPC 101 and PPC 102 lists.
2. Create 10 easy tips to help you [insert topic here] articles. Again, these are exceptionally easy to link to.
3. Create extensive resource lists for a specific topic (see Mr Ploppy for inspiration).
4. Create a list of the top 10 myths for a specific category.
5. Create a list of gurus/experts. If you impress the people listed well enough, or find a way to make your project look somewhat official, the gurus may end up linking to your site or saying thanks. (Sometimes flattery is the easiest way to strike up a good relationship with an “authority”.)
Developing Authority & Being Easy to Link At
6. Make your content easy to understand so many people can understand and spread your message. (It’s an accessibility thing.)
7. Put some effort in to minimize grammatical or spelling errors, especially if you need authoritative people like librarians to link to your site.
8. Have an easily accessible privacy policy and about section so your site seems more trustworthy. Including a picture of yourself may also help build your authority.
PPC as a Link Building Tool
9. Buy relevant traffic with a pay per click campaign. Relevant traffic will get your site more visitors and brand exposure. When people come to your site, regardless of the channel in which they found it, there is a possibility that they will link to you.
News & Syndication
10. Syndicate an article at EzineArticles, GoArticles, iSnare, etc. The great thing about good article sites is that their article pages actually rank highly and send highly qualified traffic.
11. Submit an article to industry news site. Have an SEO site? Write an article and submit to WebProNews. Have a site about BLANK? Submit to BLANKinformationalsite.com.
12. Syndicate a press release. Take the time to make it GOOD (compelling, newsworthy). Email it to some handpicked journalists and bloggers. Personalize the email message. For good measure, submit it to PRWeb, PRLeap, etc.
13. Track who picks up your articles or press releases. Offer them exclusive news or content.
14. Trade articles with other webmasters.
15. Email a few friends when you have important relevant news asking them for their feedback and/or if they would mind referencing it if they find your information useful.
16. Write about, and link to, companies with “in the news” pages. They link back to stories and blog posts which cover their developments. This is obviously easiest if you have a news section or blog. Do a Google search for [your industry + “in the news”].
17. Perform surveys and studies that make people feel important. If you can make other people feel important they will help do your marketing for you for free. Salary.com did a study on how underpaid mothers were, and they got many high quality links.
Directories, Meme Trackers & Social Bookmarking
18. This tip is an oldie but goodie: submit your site to DMOZ and other directories that allow free submissions.
19. Submit your site to paid directories. Another oldie. Just remember that quality matters.
20. Create your own topical directory about your field of interest. Obviously link to your own site, deeplinking to important content where possible. Of course, if you make it into a truly useful resource, it will attract links on its own.
21. Tag related sites on sites like Del.icio.us. If people find the sites you tag to be interesting, emotionally engaging, or timely they may follow the trail back to your site.
22. If you create something that is of great quality make sure you ask a few friends to tag it for you. If your site gets on the front page of Digg or on the Del.icio.us popular list, hundreds more bloggers will see your site, and potentially link to it.
23. Look at meme trackers to see what ideas are spreading. If you write about popular spreading ideas with plenty of original content (and link to some of the original resources), your site may get listed as a source on the meme tracker site.
Local & Business Links
24. Join the Better Business Bureau.
25. Get a link from your local chamber of commerce.
26. Submit your link to relevant city and state governmental resources. (Easier in some countries than in others.)
27. List your site at the local library’s Web site.
28. See if your manufacturers or retailers or other business partners might be willing to link to your site.
29. Develop business relationships with non-competing businesses in the same field. Leverage these relationships online and off, by recommending each other via links and distributing each other’s business cards.
30. Launch an affiliate program. Most of the links you pick up will not have SEO value, but the added exposure will almost always lead to additional “normal” links.
Easy Free Links
31. Depending on your category and offer, you will find Craigslist to be a cheap or free classified service.
32. It is pretty easy to ask or answer questions on Yahoo! Answers and provide links to relevant resources.
33. It is pretty easy to ask or answer questions on Google Groups and provide links to relevant resources.
34. If you run a fairly reputable company, create a page about it in the Wikipedia or in topic specific wikis. If it is hard to list your site directly, try to add links to other pages that link to your site.
35. It takes about 15 minutes to set up a topical Squidoo page, which you can use to look like an industry expert. Link to expert documents and popular useful tools in your fields, and also create a link back to your site.
36. Submit a story to Digg that links to an article on your site. You can also submit other content and have some of its link authority flow back to your profile page.
37. If you publish an RSS feed and your content is useful and regularly updated, some people will syndicate your RSS content (and some of those will provide links… unfortunately, some will not).
38. Most forums allow members to leave signature links or personal profile links. If you make quality contributions some people will follow these links and potentially read your site, link at your site, and/or buy your products.
Have a Big Heart for Reviews
39. Most brands are not well established online, so if your site has much authority, your review related content often ranks well.
40. Review relevant products on Amazon.com. We have seen this draw in direct customer enquiries and secondary links.
41. Create product lists on Amazon.com that review top products and also mention your background (LINK!).
42. Review related sites on Alexa to draw in related traffic streams.
43. Review products and services on shopping search engines like ePinions to help build your authority.
44. If you buy a product or service you really like and are good at leaving testimonials, many of those turn into links. Two testimonial writing tips — make them believable, and be specific where possible.
Blogs & the Blogosphere
45. Start a blog. Not just for the sake of having one. Post regularly and post great content. Good execution is what gets the links.
46. Link to other blogs from your blog. Outbound links are one of the cheapest forms of marketing available. Many bloggers also track who is linking to them or where their traffic comes from, so linking to them is an easy way to get noticed by some of them.
47. Comment on other blogs. Most of these comments will not provide much direct search engine value, but if your comments are useful, insightful, and relevant they can drive direct traffic. They also help make the other bloggers become aware of you, and they may start reading your blog and/or linking to it.
48. Technorati tag pages rank well in Yahoo! and MSN, and to a lesser extent in Google. Even if your blog is fairly new you can have your posts featured on the Technorati tag pages by tagging your posts with relevant tags.
49. If you create a blog make sure you list it in a few of the best blog directories.
50. Start all over again.
