title: Where can I find luxury goods advertisements for my website?

text: I'm running business directory for tourist attractions, and I would like to fill some empty blocks with useful advertisements like flight operators, car retailers, luxury goods etc. We have tried Google AdSense but it's full of cheap, pointless and irrelevant advertisement that would make our website look cheap and bad. So I'm curious is there any centralised resources for luxury goods and services?


title: Embeding a generic google search with autocomplete - not a custom site search

text: Most people's home page is google.com. My homepage is just a custom html page hosted on my computer. I do this because I am a web developer, and I have several projects that I work on a one time, so I like to have quick links to all of them. On that page I usually just have a Link to google.com for when I want to search. But below all of my quick links, I want to add a google search box (with Autocompletions). I first used a simple iframe to embed google.com into the page, but then my search results were confined to that iframe. I wanted to search for something, then my results would open in a new tab. I then came across this code snippet but it doesn't have Autocompletions: http://www.refactory.org/s/google_search/view/2 How can I add Autocompletions to this? Or is there a better way of doing it? Thanks in advance for any advice


title: Identify page leading to conversion in Google Analytics

text: GA provides a way to quickly look at traffic sources, campaigns and social networks driving traffic to conversion. I have a email signup form on certain key pages as well as landing pages. Is there a way to look at GA to drill down how many conversions are being driven by these specific pages? If not is there an easy to implement solution in JavaScript (my site is static) that would allow me to delineate and segment my traffic so I could make such a determination?


title: DNS and MX questions related to new hosts

text: This stuff always confuses me so I'll layout the pieces and what I hope to achieve, if someone can connect the dots.   * I have a domain `www.toys.com`   * I have a cloud VPS   * I have an Open Exchange mail server In a perfect world...get `toys.com` to point to and use cloud VPS's DNS settings. This is great my domain now has a web host, hooray. I don't want to use cloud VPS mail services. I want to use Open Exchange services. So I go into cloud VPS's DNS tools and add records for open exchange service and mail should work, hooray. My problem as follows `toys.com` currently has existing hosting and a separate mail server.   * When I switch the DNS of `toys.com` to point to new web host, I know existing hosting will stop.   * When I switch the DNS of `toys.com` to point to new web host, I think mail will also stop because the records are no longer there since there's a new host.   * I now have to add the Open Exchange mail server records in cloud VPS's DNS tools. How long will this take?  The reason I ask is because the mail server is hosting about 400 email addresses, but a new web host is wanted/needed.


title: Tactics for dealing with misbehaving robots

text: I have a site that, for regulatory reasons, may not be indexed or searched automatically. This means that we need to keep all robots away and prevent them from spidering the site. Obviously we've had a robots.txt file that disallows all right from the start. However, observing the robots.txt file is something only well behaved robots do. Recently we've had some issues with less well behaved robots. I've configured Apache to ban a few user-agents but it is pretty easy to get around that. So, the question is, is there some way to configure Apache (perhaps by installing a some module?) to detect robot-like behavior and respond? Any other ideas? At the moment all I can do is ban IP addresses based on manual inspection of the logs and that is simply not a viable long term strategy.


title: Filtering European traffic in Google Analytics

text: I'd like to filter incoming information, with one profile containing U.S. traffic and another E.U. traffic. U.S. was easy enough...               Custom Filter     Include     Filter Field: Country     Filter Pattern: United States$     Case Sensitive: No      This worked great. European traffic however has been problematic.               Custom Filter     Include     Filter Field: Region     Filter Pattern: Europe     Case Sensitive: No      The above doesn't work. I also tried "Southern Europe|Northern Europe|etc" as the filter pattern. No dice. Things are made more difficult by the fact that I can only test that worked by checking whether traffic was acquired the next day.


title: Switch to https

text: I'm looking to use an .htaccess file to use mod_rewrite to switch the protocol from http:// to https:// when someone hits my website. For instance, once someone goes to: `http://www.mywebsite.com/` I'd like the browser to switch to: `https://www.mywebsite.com/` The same goes for the `http://mywebsite.com/` -> `https://mywebsite.com` This is the following code I've been using and I've experienced some odd things so if anyone could provide me with information if this is the right way to do it, or if you have a better way, please provide it. Thanks in advance.               RewriteEngine On     RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443     RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.ebaillv.com/$1 [R=301,L]


title: Is this a DNS or server-side error?

text: I am having difficulty accessing a specific website. (I get 500 Server fault errors) I can access this site on my iPhone when NOT connected to WiFi. I CANNOT access the site when connected to WiFi or via a Ethernet connection to my home network. I thought it might be a DNS issue, so I copied the DNSservers from a friend who has a different ISP, and has no problem access the site. No luck. Also tried some of the public DNS servers out there, again, with no luck. Does anyone have any idea on how to trace this issue?


title: Should I link thousands on landing pages to my website or not?

text: I'm working on a website, recently we decided to create thousands of landing pages to target different cities, using different keywords and feed them to google ...

title: Are there any tried and tested methods for rejuvenating an old message board?

text: I have a moderately successful message board with an excellent (but tiny) community associated with it. One of my goals for the month is to try and increase the amount of users on the site and also the amount of posts per day. Apart from the general methods that any site could use to drive traffic is there anything I should specifically be doing for a message board? Here are some of the things I have already tried (and am already trying, obviously some of these things are on-going projects)   * Harnessing Facebook Communities and the 'like' button.   * Writing a friendly message to non-logged in users asking them to sign up or log in.   * Writing posts in such as way as they spark debate or conversation.   * Listen and engage with the community.   * We have a basic reputation system.   * We have an introduction thread and it has a friendly welcoming atmosphere.   * We interview people on the site. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

title: Google Webmaster crawler showing internal links I cannot find

text: I've got the crawler showing links that appear to be double URL encoded links. Specifically links that are `%2520` instead of `%20` or ``. As far as I know I've fixed this a while ago by removing special characters and spaces, but let the URL handler still be able to handle these links. I go to the `Linked From` page it lists as source of the issue, and I cannot find anywhere the link it describes. Does anyone know what's going on? It seems that the links are ok on my end, and Google is converting the `%` to `%25` and can't go to the page after, because my setup with IIS cannot handle a `%2520`


title: What is the most time-effective way to monitor & manage threats from bots and/or humans?

text: I'm usually overwhelmed by the amount of tools that hosting companies provide to track & quantify traffic data and statistics. I'm equally overwhelmed by the countless flavors of malicious 'attacks' that target any and every web site known to man. The security methods used to protect both the back and front end of a website are documented well and are straight-forward in terms of ease of implementation and application, but the army of autonomous bots knows no boundaries and will always find a niche of a website to infest. So what can be done to handle the inevitable swarm of bots that pound your domain with brute force? Whenever I look at error logs for my domains, there are always thousands of entries that look like bots trying to sneak sql code into the database by tricking the variables in the url into giving them schema information or private data within the database. My barbaric and time-consuming plan of defense is just to monitor visitor statistics for those obvious patterns of abuse and either ban the ips or range of ips accordingly. Aside from that, I don't know much else I could do to prevent all of the ping pong going on all day. Are there any good tools that automatically monitor this background activity (specifically activity that throws errors on the web & db server) and proactively deal with these source(s) of mayhem?

title: Does Google submit HTML forms?

text: I have a web page, say `http://domain/purchase` and in this page, I have a web form. User, on submitting this form (which has validation, both client-side and server side and won't be validated until fields are filled appropriately), would be redirected to another page, where (s)he can choose other things, and specify other settings and then purchase our product. Say the second page is `http://domain/options`. So, user comes to our site and visits `http://domain/purchase`, fills the form, submits it, and then would be redirected to the second page, `http://doamin/options?parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2`, which contains parameters from the first page. This is very common in passing parameters between web pages (or technically, between URLs). Now I was reviewing my website, and saw that Google had indexed some of my redirected web pages and URLs, like:   1. `http://domain/options?parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2`   2. `http://domain/options?parameter1=value3&parameter2=value4`   3. `http://domain/options?parameter1=value5&parameter2=value6`   4. `http://domain/options?parameter1=value7&parameter2=value8`   5. `http://domain/options?parameter1=value9&parameter2=value10` This means that Google Bot has visited our `http://domain/purchase` page, and has filled our form, and has submitted it, and was being redirected to the other URL, with corresponding parameters. This is the only way that makes sense to me. Does Google really fills forms? **PS:** All parameters are meaningful, meaning that they are not filled arbitrarily. For example, the **phone** parameter in indexed pages has correct phone numbers. How is it possible?

title: What does it mean when the nameservers reported by whois do not match those reported by nslookup?

text: I am currently investigating moving some records to a new set of nameservers, and in doing the research to be prepared for it have come up against a confusing mismatch. A bit of background on the situation -   * it's a .com.au domain, if that is of note (don't think it is).   * There are several parties involved here - the webhosting company, who I originally had the impression was providing the nameservers; the registrar, who I am starting to think might actually be the ones providing them; and the company I work for, which has an internal DNS server which overrides one of the records (again, I don't think this should matter, I am making my whois/nslookup queries using online tools outside our network to try to ensure this doesn't complicate things).   * To keep the question general, lets call these parties and their nameservers HostCo, RegCo and OurCo, and call the domain in question *.ourco.com.au. Here are the two conflicting results I am seeing (some obfuscation):               Whois response for ourco.com.au:               Domain Name ourco.com.au     Last Modified   12-Apr-2014 11:39:38 UTC     Registrar ID    RegCo     Registrar Name  RegCo     Status  ok     Registrant  OURCO PTY LTD     Registrant ID   ACN ### ### ###     Eligibility Type    Company     Registrant Contact ID   JB#######     Registrant Contact Name Joe Bloggs     Registrant Contact Email    joe.bloggs@ourco.com.au     Tech Contact ID CO2415740     Tech Contact Name   Chris O\'Kelly     Tech Contact Email  chris.okelly@ourco.com.au     Name Server ns1.hostco.com.au     Name Server IP  ###.###.###.###     Name Server ns2.hostco.com.au     Name Server IP  ###.###.###.###      which suggests HostCo hosts the nameservers, and               >nslookup - 8.8.8.8     Default Server:  google-public-dns-a.google.com     Address:  8.8.8.8          > set querytype=soa     > ourco.com.au     Server:  google-public-dns-a.google.com     Address:  8.8.8.8          Non-authoritative answer:     ourco.com.au             primary name server = ns1.regco.com.au             responsible mail addr = hostmaster.ourco.com.au             serial  = 20030501             refresh = 10800 (3 hours)             retry   = 3600 (1 hour)             expire  = 604800 (7 days)             default TTL = 10800 (3 hours)      which suggests RegCo hosts them. I've done some further investigation; reading this question led me to a DNS propogation tool designed by David Precious. This tool returns the RegCo nameservers and advises "All responding servers agreed on the same answer". Furthermore, I tried to nslookup the domain on HostCo's nameservers, like so:               >nslookup ourco.com.au ns1.hostco.com.au          (root)  nameserver = L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = C.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     (root)  nameserver = K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET     Server:  UnKnown     Address:  ###.###.###.###          Name:    ourco.com.au      Address:  ###.###.###.###      Which suggests that HostCo just points back to the root internet nameservers for that address... I think. Finally, when I log onto RegCo's domain management tools, it lists ns1.hostco.com.au and ns2.hostco.com.au as the nameservers for the domain in both the "Domain Info" section and the section wherein I set nameservers. In the "Update DNS Details" section I have the details for all the hosts, with appropriate MX, CNAME and A records to what I expect. My theory is that the information on RegCo's nameserver section was entered incorrectly and that causes the domain info and whois to be wrong too; if so then the settings in the "Update DNS Details" are what is being used and I can safely say the current nameserver is with RegCo. The only flaw I see with this theory is that if it were true, wouldn't it be incorrectly pointing DNS requests to HostCo, and wouldn't that mean things shouldn't be working (they are)? Can anyone confirm or deny my theory? **Edit the first** In case this was not yet confusing enough, heres the results of a dig +trace suggested by closetnoc :               dig @8.8.8.8 ourco.com.au +trace any          ; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> @8.8.8.8 ourco.com.au +trace any     ; (1 server found)     ;; global options: +cmd     .                       6055    IN      NS      f.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      j.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      a.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      c.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      m.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      k.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      g.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      b.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      h.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      d.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      i.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      l.root-servers.net.     .                       6055    IN      NS      e.root-servers.net.     ;; Received 228 bytes from 8.8.8.8#53(8.8.8.8) in 172 ms          au.                     172800  IN      NS      a.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      b.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      r.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      s.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      u.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      v.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      w.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      x.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      y.au.     au.                     172800  IN      NS      z.au.     ;; Received 493 bytes from 199.7.83.42#53(l.root-servers.net) in 993 ms          com.au.                 86400   IN      NS      z.au.     com.au.                 86400   IN      NS      w.au.     com.au.                 86400   IN      NS      y.au.     com.au.                 86400   IN      NS      x.au.     ;; Received 273 bytes from 202.12.31.141#53(v.au) in 1038 ms          ourco.com.au.        14400   IN      NS      ns2.hostco.com.au.     ourco.com.au.        14400   IN      NS      ns1.hostco.com.au.     ;; Received 111 bytes from 37.209.194.5#53(x.au) in 998 ms          ourco.com.au.        14400   IN      TXT     "v=spf1 +a +mx +ip4:###.###.###.### ?all"     ourco.com.au.        14400   IN      MX      0 mail.ourco.com.au.     ourco.com.au.        86400   IN      SOA     ns1.hostco.com.au. security.bitcloud.com.au. 2013051700 86400 7200 3600000 86400     ourco.com.au.        86400   IN      NS      ns2.hostco.com.au.     ourco.com.au.        86400   IN      NS      ns1.hostco.com.au.     ourco.com.au.        14400   IN      A       ###.###.###.###     ;; Received 236 bytes from ###.###.###.####53(ns1.hostco.com.au) in 158 ms      which undermines my theory that the registrar holds the nameservers

title: During a domain auction for the .com version of my domain, it redirects to my site

text: I own a web domain that is quite well known in certain circles. The .com of the same name is now being auctioned off at a price I certainly do to wish to pay. The person in question is auto redirecting their .com domain to my website during the auction. So it looks like this persons .com is owned by and/or is in some way related to my company and website. In effect using my website as the content for this persons domain auction. For example: If some random person bought `pepsi.com` by luck and put it to auction with an auto-redirect to the official Pepsi company. Would that be legal? Obviously my company is minuscule compared to Pepsi. Still, this all seems completely wrong to me.

text: If I register a domain by some domain registrar and than host in on some hosting provider, does the SEO or performance matter? E.g. I register the domain in UK and then host in Dallas, are there any performance issues and does it have impact to SEO? I guess not but I would like to be sure.


title: How to perform a 301 redirect with .htaccess and PHP

text: The website I am referencing in my question is http://www.bgmenus.com. I have successfully created clean urls like this for my listings: http://bgmenus.com/five-guys/341 I rewrote those using this: `RewriteRule /([^/.]+)/?$ /restaurants.php?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA]` The issue is the old URLs still exist and work: http://bgmenus.com/restaurants.php?id=341 My question is how can I **301** the `/restaurants.php?id=123` version of the URL back to the clean version so there aren't any duplicates. Thanks for your help.


title: How to promote external sites besides my own in search results?

text: I have a site which, after fixing a lot of SEO issues, is now doing fairly well in Google search result rankings; the problem is I would like some related pages on other people's websites to show along with my own pages. For example, if I were to search for my name and the first page is full of links to pages on my website, how can I get Google to rank other relevant links like my StackOverflow profile higher?


title: Google Webmaster Tools crawl error with 'function.session-start' URLs

What is the issue there and how to avoid it?


title: Having an URL point to different locations for periods of time

text: I want to ensure that I get the proper SEO benefits in the following example: I was thinking of pointing `example.com/sixnations` (the Six Nations is a rugby tournament from feb-march) to refer to either `/sixnations2013` or `/sixnations2014` depending on the time of the year. If someone visits `/sixnations` between Jan-Jul, it's likely they're more interested in the current year, whereas if it's between Jul-Dec, they'll probably prefer next years. I can 301/canonical, but I don't know if rankings will take a hit when it switches over, or something. My current plan is that `/sixnations` will mirror the content of the "proper" place (eg `/sixnations` in the url still) but I can "hard" redirect and change the URL if necessary too. 301/canonical, or 302 with same URL, or redirect entirely?

title: Setting Meta tags for a website

text: I have made an Asp.net MVC website and am not well versed about SEO techniques, so I want a little guidance in setting the appropriate meta tags for the website. My website is dynamic and has two types of Pages: **Category** and **Product** There are two tables in the database for Category and Product. Looking into the future, I added these fields beforehand to both the tables : > -- MetaTitle--MetaDescription--MetaKeywords On both the Category and Product pages, these values are retrieved and set as following               <meta name="description" content="@ViewBag.MetaDescription" />     <meta name="title" content="@ViewBag.MetaTitle" />     <meta name="keywords" content="@ViewBag.MetaKeywords" />      For better SEO how will you set up these meta tags. Will you include the site name in all three fields ? Right now, the Product page's MetaTitle, MetaDescription and MetaKeywords don't include the website name. If possible, can you provide me sample values that should be set for better SEO performance keeping the business name in mind.

title: How to fix Google 404 not found Crawl Errors?

text: I was checking on Google webmater tool for my blog site to see if there's any indication on why my blog traffic decreased to half in one day and i saw 43 Not Found crawl errors and 5 in Sitemap Not Found errors. The 5 Not Found errors in Sitemap were the links to categories. I guess I renamed categories that's why google can't find the links. As for the 43 other Not Found errors, I see blog post titles that contains (' .) EX: McDonald's, O.N.E. They weren't found by google crawler. Blog post with /CachedYou at the end and blog posts with /www.example.com attached at the end, they weren't found by Google crawlers either. My question is how do I correct those Not Found Errors?

text: I'm using a server which allows me to create and redirect subdomains. However, it is reflected on the address URL bar. What I want is to keep `subdomain.domain.com` as base URL for the subdirectories inside `domain.com/subdirectory/` Searching on the internet I always come up with these lines for .htaccess, which I think it does the redirection, but not the masking.

title: Google analytics tracking code for different profiles?

text: I have set up two different profiles in my Google analytics account for my website. The reason for having two different profiles is that my site is completely divided in two different user groups (not sharing anything (buyers and sellers)). When reading the documentation on profiles and accounts from google it says that each profile as subid UA-XXXX-1, UA-XXXX-2 etc... My tracking code just uses -1 and therefore both profiles show the same information. I can't figure out how my tracking code should differ between the two. In my mind it should be:               <script type="text/javascript">     var _gaq = _gaq || [];     _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXX-1']);     _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'mysite.com']);     _gaq.push(['_setAllowHash', false]);     _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);     ... analytics javascript.     </script>      And on the second part of the site it should be:               <script type="text/javascript">     var _gaq = _gaq || [];     _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXX-2']);     _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'mysite.com']);     _gaq.push(['_setAllowHash', false]);     _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);     ... analytics javascript.     </script>      I can't see any examples and my profiles show the same tracking code in analytics. I'm lost in how to make the two different profiles gathering the information separatly. My question is simple: How do I alter my tracking code so that traffic gets logged either in my default profile or second profile? Is there something that I'm missing? Super thanks for any answer to this. Best regards, Niclas

title: What are examples of services that track content-driven activity on social networks like Facebook and Twitter?

text: I'm trying to design the basics for a platform that enables users to access sets of statistics and information related to the way how their publications are handled and shared across social networks like Facebook and Twitter. Many services are based on the contents published from the social networks themselves (e.g. ThinkUp and Hootsuite), other are inspired on the traffic metrics (e.g. Google Analytics, Mint and Newsbeat). I'm looking for fairly known examples of web analytics services that track social network activity, at least on Facebook and Twitter. Not just the good old analytics (I'm talking about the last examples I gave above), but the ones that focus on the contents and how they're handled by the community. These are some of the features I'm looking for:   * List of most commented, shared or liked publications;   * List of most active _sharers_ ;   * Variation of average "sharing activity" across last day, week, month; Which services can do this? Are they web based applications or self-hosted apps? Do they have their own APIs? Can they track contents-driven activity instead of the plain old

title: Disadvantages of a fake phpMyAdmin honeypot that causes ip blacklisting and robots.txt disallow/exclusion of the honeypot?

text: I'm trying to figure out whether I should set up a honeypot system with a fake phpMyAdmin (site gets hits all the time with people spidering for insecurities with that app). My thought was to create a honeypot php script that would mimic a phpMyAdmin login, and then blacklist ips that hit that url (and aren't already whitelisted). I would then add the appropriate urls to the robots.txt so that spiders that actually respect my robots.txt wouldn't be caught by the blacklist. Are there disadvantages to this approach, do legit robots sometimes not respect robots.txt in certain circumstances, are there any problems with this that I should consider in advance?

What is the best way to handle these links from an SEO point-of-view? I have heard 301 redirecting too many links at one time can cause Google to ding the site but I don't want this site to continue posting broken links. Any help on this would be appreciated.

text: Are there any specific advantages or disadvantages in generating an XML based sitemap in place of a simple txt based sitemap (list of URLs)? I realize that in the XML format I can set priority and last-modified date, but it is not clear what benefit, if any, in terms of SEO, etc, this provides. (For instance, what benefit would there be to setting a low priority, other than possible reducing robot crawl load?) Explicitly stating this information also increases the probability of a mistake -- some modification date not getting updated correctly, etc.

I have a blog (wordpress.org) setup on mysite.com/blog My goal is to setup tracking in such a way that I can see data for the blog and separate data for the webshop.

I have a feeling the exclude filter prevents this. I have investigated advanced segments, but no luck. Also _setCookiePath, I have no idea what effect that will have...

title: Stop Google crawling links completely

text: I would like to stop Google crawling certain links on a site. When I say this, I mean completely stop the crawling. I'm aware that I use `noindex/nofollow` and other methods in _robots.txt_ , but, I'm told that whilst these will be respected in terms of the content of the page, the URL itself is still crawled. The reason I'm so bothered about is due to the crawl budget that is allocated to the site. The site uses layered/faceted navigation, and the combination of filters creates hundreds of thousands of unique links. I want to make sure Google ignores these links completely, and concentrates on the important pages that I want to be crawled and indexed. I've been made aware of a couple of options -   1. Ajax Checkboxes - replace the HTML links with ajax checkboxes. The problem here is that these aren't any good for accessibility and browsers with JavaScript disabled. I'm also aware, that Google can see this as cloaking, and can penalise appropriately.   2. Hashbang #! Urls - From what I can find, if you add a hash bang to a URL, Google will not crawl it. For example `www.myshop.com/shoes#!colour-red`. I can't find any sites using it in this form though, so I'm not convinced.

Here are the requirements, for which I am looking for in a web-based tournament management software:   * Customizable: open-source would be perfect, otherwise at least needs to support plug-ins to support different kinds of sports/games/results/etc.   * Authentication: support for authenticated users that can be related to different tournaments as well as teams   * Runs mostly non-supervised: as the tournaments are web-based I'd like to give contestants the possibility to sign-up themselves (based on authentication system to reduce the spamming problem) and report results themselves. Result reports vary dramatically based on the actual tournament, hence, may require some result determination plug-ins. The goal is to drastically reduce the required manual effort by administrators compared to typical tournament management software.   * Web interface: I am not interested in off-line tournament management software   * Active: If in any way possible I'd like to build upon software that is maintained and/or in active development Some optional nice-to-have features would be:   * automatic bracket generation with selectable algorithms (round-robin, KO system, etc)   * visualizations (mainly brackets)   * statistics I am asking this question after researching alternatives my google-fu could find. I will list the tools here that I found and what is wrong with them for my purposes. Please feel free to help me improve my google-fu, or point out if I have overlooked something in my evaluations.   * open tournament system: looks roughly like what I had in mind, but never seems to have taken off and is unmaintained for almost half a decade now   * KMleague: also sounds nice, but doesn't appear to be maintained anymore (I couldn't get access to their forums for more information either. Never received the activation e-mail.) Maybe someone here knows it and whether it's worthwhile to check out the code as a starting point.   * In this SO thread I found Tourney logic and TournamentAPI, which both require off-line management of the tournaments. Additionally, the first is commercial and the latter hasn't released anything yet.   * Konkuri.com - gives me not enough customization possibilities and requires heavy moderation by some administrator. Several commercial products I quickly dismissed for their lack of customizability (most are strictly limited to a certain sport/game) and because all I came across where again off-line managed. Does anyone know of something that could be used as a starting point, or will I have to develop such a system from scratch?

title: 301 redirect, keyword being in bold

text: Regarding 301; If I redirect no-www to www domain with 301 redirect, do I still have to determinate inside Google webmaster tools which version (www or nonwww) is prefered? Or is setting up redirect enough so therefore I don't need to determinate that inside GWT? Regarding keyword being in bold: Usually keywords are supposed to be in bold font and it is irrelevant if they are links or not. But in heading (h1, h2); does there keyword also need to be in bold or is it enough if I care to put it to the beginning of heading? So else how asked; Does the keyword in heading need to be in bold font also?

title: Multi language site - use of canonical link and link rel="alternate"

text: I keep reading everywhere that if you have a multilanguage site, where the same page appears in, say, French and English, then this is considered as duplicate content by google. It is written that using canonical link is the solution, but I do not understand how to use it in this case. Should I:   1. Choose either French URL or English URL to be the canonical (main) one, and where I will place the canonical link? If so, how do I decide which of the two URLs must be canonical? both languages are important to me and I want the content under both languages to be indexed by google and served to the user, depending on the language in which he searches.   2. OR should I place a canonical link on both French and English URLs? If so, then I do not understand the meaning of using the canonical link? In this case would both URLs be indexed, are both of them considered as "important" by google and not duplicates? Also I read that link rel="alternate" can be used to indicate to google that, for example the French URL is the French-language equivalent of the English page. This makes sense and I understand how to use such links, but how are they combined with canonical links? Should I define both the canonical URL AND specify rel="alternate" in both URLs? Could someone help me to clarify this, cause I'm stuck with this and can't seem to find a good-enough explanation in different sources.

title: Why is page rank so high for a teacher's personal site

text: I have several sites with google page rank 0.   * These sites have unique content (in my native language).    * They have sites on google+ and facebook with at least 50 likes.    * They are registered in many search engines.    * There are quite many links (not fewer than hundred) pointing to them - site openlinkprofiler.org gave to the majority of these links low values (about 5%), but this is better than nothing.    * There aren't links from "bas seo" pages to my sites   * I am commenting in relevant sites using links to my pages.    * All these pages receive high or satisfactory rankings in automatic SEO analysis tools.   * There aren't many unique users who vist these pages per day, but also this number is not a zero But still pagerank zero for months. And another example, a teacher of calculus from our faculty (which has about 1500 students and he teaches about 150 unique students in a year) has a personal site with page rank 3 (called krbalek.cz)   * His site is not valid according to w3c   * He has not connections with social networks   * System openlinkprofiler.org tells that there are only a few links pointing to the page   * He probably does not do any seo and Seo analysers do not give the best results for him Is there any general advice for me, what am I doing wrong? The only thing that came to my mind is that his personal site has been in service for about 10 year and all my sites aren't older than a year.

title: Using rel=next and rel=prev with multiple sets of paginated content on the same page

text: We are running into issues with trying to figure out how to implement rel="next" and rel="prev" -- coupled with rel="canonical" -- with multiple sets of paginated content on the same page, with pages in multiple cultures. In other words, how do we implement these when we have a pager for both Product Reviews and Questions and Answers (aka "Q&A") on the same page, with duplicate content across culture-specific URLs (e.g. /us/en/my-product vs. /ca/en/my-product)? Our current implementation will actually do a full postback when you click Page 2, and will add something to the query string (e.g. website.com/ca/en/my- product?previewpage=2 or website.com/ca/en/my-product?questionpage=2). If we only had one set of paginated content then the implementation would certainly be more straightforward. Adding a second set of paginated content (i.e. Q&A) complicates things. Let's assume that we want the United States English page to be the canonical target (i.e. /us/en/my-product) based on culture. If you go to the /ca/en/my- product page you'll have a rel="canonical" href="/us/en/my-product". So far so good. Let's also assume that we are not implementing a page that lists ALL Product Reviews and Q&A. This would likely solve a number of our problems by using rel="canonical" to this page, but is not an option for reasons that are out of scope for this discussion. Now if you click on page 2 of Product Reviews, it will reload the page with /ca/en/my-product?reviewpage=2 as the URL. Given this scenario, here are my questions:   1. On page 2 of the my-product page on the Canadian site, should there be a rel="canonical" to /us/en/my-product?reviewpage=2 (assuming the content is identical in the United States and Canada)?   2. Should the rel="prev" go to /ca/en/my-product?reviewpage=1 or should it go to /ca/en/my-product ? The query-string version would really only be accessible if using the pager and shows the exact same content as the base page. The following two questions are closely related to this one.   3. Should the /ca/en/my-product?reviewpage=1 have a rel canonical directly to /us/en/my-product (United States page with nothing in query string) since the content is identical)?   4. Given that Q&A content is also paginated, should there be a rel="next" on the base page without query string? In other words, should the /ca/en/my-product page have a rel="next" to /ca/en/my-product?reviewpage=2 AND rel="next" to /ca/en/my-product?questionpage=2 . So far as I can tell it doesn't make sense to have multiple rel="next" implementations on the same page. I suspect that the pages with query string values should have rel="next" and rel="prev" that only point to other pages with query strings and not to the base page. The ?reviewpage=1 and ?questionpage=1 pages would then just have a rel="canonical" to /us/en/my-product . Thoughts? I know this is a tough one -- that's why I brought it to this community. Thanks so much for your help in advance!


title: How can I have more bounces than exits in Google Analytics?

text: According to Google Analytics, a particular page has 97710 page views. This page has an exit rate of 57.82% and a bounce rate of 64.4%. According to the Navigation Summary page, 91.76% of page visits were entrances, and 8.24% came from previous pages. From the page views and entrance rate, I calculate the number of direct entrances as: `.9176 * 97710 = 89659` and from that, I calculate the number of bounces as: `.644 * 89659 = 57740` This seems reasonable. Then, from the exit rate and the number of page views, I calculate the number of exits as: `.5782 * 97710 = 56496` This too seems like a reasonable number...but then I saw that the number of bounces (57740) > the number of total exits (56496)! I've read about what exactly bounce rate and exit rate are, and I've looked at a few examples online where people showed examples of how to calculate bounce and exit rates. Does anyone see anything wrong with my math? Or do I misunderstand how Analytics works?


title: How do I add a custom welcome tab to a Facebook fan page?

text: this is my first question on here so I do apologise in advance if I do something wrong. I'm a web designer, not a programmer (just for the record)! I have to add a custom welcome tab to a Facebook fan page, and...I don't know how to do it. I have googled and found several tutorials, but I can't seem to follow any of them because my experience always deviates from what the guides lead me to expect! The tutorial I've seen most recommended is this: http://www.hyperarts.com/blog/adding-iframe-application-to-facebook-fan-page/ However, I've tried it and I just don't get the same pages or forms as shown. After I create and name a new app, the tutorial says I need to go to the Facebook Integration tab and fill in the fields "Tab URL", "Secure Tab URL" etc. I can't find any of this. The forms I have found ask for a whole load more information such as "Canvas Page", "Canvas URL", "Bookmark URL" and more, but I simply don't know what I'm supposed to put in here. If anyone could advise me (in the most basic terms), or point me to a very simple tutorial then I would be most grateful. EDIT: Think I have this sorted - thank you.

text: Our open source software website is migrating from Redmine to GitHub (pages, wiki, issues) and the only missing thing is _Forum/Discussions_. GitHub does not have such feature yet and allows only static pages generation. We really would like to support our users using forum. I was thinking about disqus.com like engine that can be attached to website, but what I have found offers only comments support for specific page/topic on website, they don't have ability for user to create a thread/topic like on forums. Question: Is there any 3rd party solution which will support forum/helpdesk like mechanism without requiring and server side installation and can be embedded in pure html? Also would be great if such engine support social networking authorization (like disqus). P.S.: What alternatives would you recommend for user support?

title: SEO implications of moving a section of site to a subdomain - Drupal to Jekyll/Wordpress migration

text: We are strongly considering moving significant, relatively static, portions of our existing Drupal site (`yinyanghouse.com`) out of Drupal and into a subdomain built up with a static site generator like Jekyll. This section would be something like 900 pages or so of largely static content with no need for comments, etc. (although keeping Adsense would be important) - something like `resources.yinyanghouse.com`. Then we are more than likely going to move the dynamic/community portions of our site into Wordpress for easier upgrade paths and better adherence to API's between versions (in our opinion) than Drupal. My question, then, is will there be any significant ramifications of moving a page such as: `http://www.yinyanghouse.com/acupuncturepoints/lv3` to `resources.yinyanghouse.com/acupuncturepoints/lv3`? Any things to watch out for or are just 301's and fixing all our internal links enough? Any experiences with Jekyll and larger sites? What about hosting that many pages on Github pages vs. locally with Nginx? These are crucial pages of our rankings overall and we really don't want to lose that but moving them to a static site generator will help us greatly with maintenance and hosting costs.


title: suggested ways of handling font-face and minification

text: I have a css file with a font-face section in it. Are there any known issues around using minification tools from google/yahoo when applying them on a css file with a font-face section. If so, what are some of the workarounds that could be explored. Not minifying is an option though I would prefer to minify the non font-face section, even if it means creating two separate files, one with non font-face css and one with font-face. However, I am wondering if anyone has a suggested way of dealing with this without resorting to two separate HTTP requests for the CSS files. Thanks in advance for your input/suggestions.

title: Does Google Analytics allow custom variables to have a value of zero?

text: I was interested in tracking the versions of QuickTime my users have installed. As suggested in an earlier question, I have set up a custom variable and built a report around it. Here is my code for the check:               function qt_check(){         var p = navigator.plugins;         var name, ver = 0;         for(i = 0; i < p.length; i++){             name = p[i].name;             if(name.indexOf("QuickTime Plug-in") !== -1){ ver = p[i].version; }         }         return ver;     }     pageTracker._setCustomVar(1, "QuickTime Version", qt_check(), 1);      As you can see, I set up the `qt_check()` function so that it would return a value of zero if the user does not have any version of QuickTime installed. My idea was that in addition to getting a readout on the various versions of QuickTime, I would be able to see how many people don't have it at all by looking for version "0". But now that I have a few days of data, I find that although there have been 933 visits during that time, nobody registered as having QuickTime version 0. Should I be passing some other value to Google Analytics? Is the 0 causing it to discard the variable?

title: GWT "Big traffic change for top URL"

text: I recently received an email from GWT saying that one of my URL's traffic has suddenly dropped. As it turned out the traffic to the whole site has drastically dropped, from some 300+ unique visitors to less than 10 a day. After doing some investigation, it turns out that sometimes when you load the website, the source shows only the following:                     The cookie is different, for example on one of my computers it said something along the lines of `zzzzzzz=something` (can't remember the value) and on a proxy it showed the above value. If the cookie isn't set, it just won't load the website. Now this obviously means that my website is somehow infected some sort of malware, however, Google doesn't return any search results. Does anyone recognise this malware or can offer some advise on how to find out what the problem is? Note: the website is a custom written website and although I tried to make it as secure as possible, it obviously seems I might have missed something. Technology used is PHP5 and MySQL. The URL is: http://ps3theme.net/ Thanks EDIT: This only seems to happen the first time round. I did a mass search on the website and nothing was found. If you view the source before you load the website, it comes up, but once that piece of code has been executed, it doesn't come up anymore for a while.

title: Hijax == sneaky Javascript redirects? Will I get banned from Google?

text: ### Question Will I get penalised as **"sneaky Javascript redirects"** by Google if I have the following Hijax setup (which requires a JavaScript redirect on the page index by google). ### Goal I want to implement Hijax to enable AJAX content to be accessibile to non- JavaScript users and search engine crawlers. ### Background   1. I'm working on a static file server (GitHub Pages). No server side tricks allowed (so Google's #! "hash bang" solution is not an option).   2. I'm trying to keep my files DRY. I don't want to repeat the common OUTER template in all my files i.e. header, navigation menu, footer, etc They will live in the main `index.html` ### Setup the Hijax   1. `index.html` page contains all OUTER html/css/js... the site's template.   2. `index.html` has a `<div id="content">` which defaults to containing the "homepage" html.   3. `index.html` has a navigation menu, with a Hijax link to an "about" page.   4. With JavaScript **disabled** (e.g. crawler) it follows link to `/about.html`.   5. With JavaScript **enabled** (e.g. most people) the link updates the url hash fragment to `/#about` and jQuery replaces the `<div id="content">` innerHTML with `$("#content").load("about.html #inner-container");`. ### AJAX content `about.html` _does not_ contain anything extra to try an cloak content for crawlers. `about.html` file contains enough HTML / CSS / JavaScript to display `/about.html` as a standalone page with it's own META data... e.g. `<html><head><title>About</title>...</head><body></body></html>`. `about.html` has NO OUTER HTML template (i.e. header, navigation menu, footer, etc). `about.html` `<body>` contains a `<div id="inner-container">` which holds the content that is injected into `index.html`. `about.html` has a `<noscript>` tag as the first child of `<body>` which explains to non-JavaScript users that they are viewing the about page "inner content" - with a link to navigate to the `index.html` page to get the full page layout with menu. ### The (Sneaky?) Redirect Google indexes the `/about.html` page. However when a person with JavaScript enabled visits that page there is no OUTER html template (e.g. header, navigation menu, footer, etc). So I need to do a JavaScript redirect to get the person over the `/#about` page (deeplinking to the "about" page "state" in `index.html`). I'm thinking of doing a "redirect on click or after 10 seconds". The end results is that user ends up on an "enhanced" page back on `index.html` with all it's OUTER template - but the **core** "page" content is practically identical. ### Known issue with inbound links e.g. Share / Bookmarking It seems that if a user shares the URL `/#about` on their blog, when allocating inbound links to my site Google ignores everything after the `#` ... it allocates value to the `/` page - See: hashbang vs hijax. I can only try an minimise this issue offering "share" buttons on the page with the appropriate urls i.e. `/about.html`.

I was under the assumption that relevancy was more important than rank, but it seems this is not the case. As an example, my roofing company has links from roofing-related websites, but my competitors have links only from high PageRank sites which are unrelated in this industry. And they (my competitors) have a considerably higher ranking. Are links from high PageRank sites more valuable/effective than links from relevant, but lower sites?


title: Joomla Sub-Menu Won't Expand

text: The popular items menu on www.nfpn.org (displayed in right side bar) has sub- menu items defined. When someone navigates to a top-level page that's represented in that menu, I'd like for the child items to be displayed. I've played with various mod_mainmenu settings for that menu (in the modules section) without success. How would I get the appropriate sub-menu to expand? I'm using Joomla 1.5.21.


title: Multilingual website Google bot

text: **Introduction** I'm working on a project where a website exists out of 2 languages: **_nl_** and **_fr_**. The website itself is developed in ASP.NET where every page only exists once where the content of the page is dynamically loaded using localization. **Site structure:**               NameOfThePage.aspx     AnotherNameOfThePage.aspx     ...      All of these files are located under the root folder of the website, so their is no **_/nl/_** or **_/fr/_** subfolder. Using a url param `?lang=nl` the content of nl is loaded, if its `?lang=fr` then the content of the fr is loaded. Also meta tags, title, ... are beeing translated dynamically using the localization. **URL rewriting** For nice urls I use url rewriting like this:               http://www.example.be/nl/keyword-in-nl/     http://www.example.be/fr/keyword-in-fr/      _Rewrite rules:_               RewriteRule ^/nl/keyword-in-nl/ NameOfThePage.aspx?lang=nl     RewriteRule ^/fr/keyword-in-fr/ NameOfThePage.aspx?lang=fr      These nice urls are located in my website, sitemap and are indexed by Google. Also using the Webmaster tools > Fetch as Google, I get the correct content in the correct language. **Problem** The site is not scoring good in Google so I am searching for the problem. I read in blogs that using `?lang=` param is not done for getting the language content. But I use nice urls using the url rewriting.   * Is this still the same and must this be changed or...?   * Can this be the problem of my bad scooring results in Google? Also I read about `hreflang` to link alternative pages in different languages to each other.   * Should I use `hreflang` link elements in my case?


title: Is it OK to have a case insensitive URI?

text: If I have a URL like `/writes/about/star-wars`, and it is also accessible to users by `/wRitEs/ABOUT/star-WARS`, is that considered another page? Is a page allowed to have any combo of upper/lower-case letters? I know on Linux you can have `my.file` and `My.FILE` in the same folder so I was wondering if web pages work the same way. If so, I plan to stop supporting both paths and only allow the real one.


title: DNS - domain conflict?

text: I was given two domains: `domain.com` & `domain.info` (they are on GoDaddy). And I was also given two servers, `107.105.38.99` - Rails app and `107.107.90.17` - Wordpress platform, on Digital Ocean. At first, I was instructed to associate domain.com with the `107.107.38.99` (Rails app). Then I was instructed to de-associate this IP with `domain.com` and associated the `107.107.90.17` with the domain name `domain.com`. Then I was instructed to associated `domain.info` with the `107.107.38.99` (Rails app). Right now, when I go to `domain.com` the WordPress platform (`107.107.90.17`) loads fine and that is what is expected. But when I go to `domain.info` for the Rails app (`107.107.38.99`) I get redirected to `domain.com`. This is not expected and this is really weird for me. When I ping `domain.info` I get this:               PING domain.info (107.107.38.99): 56 data bytes     64 bytes from 107.107.38.99: icmp_seq=0 ttl=50 time=74.601 ms      Which is the expected result showing the correct IP but I don't understand why I get redirected to `domain.com`...(which when I ping is:) > domain 64 bytes from 107.107.90.17: icmp_seq=0 ttl=50 time=75.057 ms The PTR Records on Digital Ocean are as follows:               IP Address  PTR Record     107.107.38.99   domain.info.     107.107.90.17   domain.com.      and the DNS configurations on Digital Ocean are: > **domain.com** > > A: @ 107.107.90.17 > > CNAME: * @ > > **domain.info** > > A: @ 107.107.38.99 > > CNAME: * @ I am not sure what the issue is, if you have any clue please let me know, I will be really grateful. If you need any other info let me know.

title: In Google Adwords the impressions and clicks are not detailed according to keyword

text: Exactly as it says in the title. Even though I have thousands of impressions and a few dozen clicks, it is not detailed according to keyword. Any ideas of why this may be? In other words, I would like to know which clicks and impressions came from which keywords. This way I can make better decisions as to which keywords I should use! ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/bMGXP.png)

title: Breadcrumbs with <div>, <span> or <li>?

text:
Does it matter whether my microdata breadcrumb trail starts and ends with `<div>`, `<span>` or `<li>`? Consider `<div>` tag first:
                Dresses        »
       And now what if I replace it with `<li>` or `<span>` tags? What difference it would make? I saw this `<li>` in website's breadcrumbs and it displayed without showing bullet points. UPDATE: Look what I just found:                         Dresses           >>                Last Page**                Normally last page is not displayed in search results unless it has URL propery. However I was able to make it display in a non-hyperlinked way in green. How is that looked upon by Google?


title: The best way to snatch an expiring domain?

text: There's a domain that I've been looking to acquire that is expiring on the 30th of this month. I don't think it is very popular, and the guy hasn't seemed to update the website in two years now. So, I was doing some research and came across this site that seems to review some "snatching" services, but the article is quite outdated. So, I'm wondering if anyone can offer any newer information on the topic, or whether the recommend any services for helping me acquire the site in question?


title: Move vBulletin to subdomain or to a folder?

text: I've a quite big vBulletin forum, with 400'000 messages and 15'000 users. Now I want to disable the vBulletin CMS and install Wordpress in the root of my domain. So I'll move the forum in a folder (mysite.it/forum/) or in a subdomain (forum.mysite.it). Which is the best solution according to your experience? What do you suggest me to do? Thanks.


title: Maintaining legacy code

text: I have an old codebase that still "works" but is difficult/nearly impossible to maintain. It may be expensive (time and money wise) to update it. Do I just go for it, or should I continue to hate my world (but continue working on something that works and is relatively bug-free)?


title: Help Google to recognise forum threads

text: I have seen some cases where Google search results can actually tell you how many posts/replies there are in a topic, how many pages there are, and I think I even saw it tell me the specific author of the post where my search result was, but I could be mis-remembering that one. ![Forum SERPs display](http://i.stack.imgur.com/hRP0H.png) The point is, Google is apparently capable of recognising forum threads. However, it never seems to recognise my site's forum threads. Now, I am using an in-house, custom-built forum, so it may be that I'm simply missing flags or not formatting in a recognised manner. So I'd like to ask, what is it that Google looks for to identify forum threads? What kind of data is it looking for, and how can I provide it?

title: Redirecting 2 or more domains to same hosting server

text: I have domains A.com, A.co.in and A.in Purchased from site X. I have a hosting space/account purchased from site Y, which has provided me with 2 DNS entries that is to be replaced in the account at the site from where I purchase the domains. I have successfully changed the DNS entries of A.com to these 2 DNS entries and I am able to see my index.html page when I hit A.com. ### Problem On similar lines, I have changed the DNS entries to the same entries for A.co.in and A.in, but on hitting those sites in browser gives me no response and browser specific page of 'Site not found' is been seen. Please let me know, how to set this, so that when I hit any of the domain, the web-site is rendered from the hosting server? What am I doing wrong here? ### Note   1. It has been more than 3 days after changing the DNS entries, so I don't think so this is a problem of DNS propagation, which I heard from some people.   2. Please provide some detail explanation, as I am very very new to this. This is my first hosting ;) -Thanks


title: Finding the 404 page template of a website

text: Is there a certain technique or make my life easier in finding the 404 page template of a website? What I do right now to find a 404 page on a specific website is to visit the website and edit their URL by adding a fake page. Then it will return the 404 page.


title: phpmyadmin: missing "export" link

text: If I use phpmyadmin's "SQL" function to input a query by hand, I usually have an option to export the query's result. There is a link named "Export" in the area titled "Query results operations". But if I use a very long query (for example with a long list of IDs), the export link is missing, the entire Query results operations area is empty. I have acertained that this issue relates to the actual length of the query. The number of rows returned is not the problem. In earlier versions of phpmyadmin, the link used to be replaced by a button when the query became too long for a link. I think there is a limit to character length of a GET request, I suspect that this is the reason for phpmyadmin not to display the link. How can I re-enable this? I know that I can use the command line to run and export queries, but many of my co-workers are not capable to do so, but are still required to run and export queries once in a while.


title: Use of list-unsubscribe to improve inbox delivery

text: To overcome email being classified as spam by Gmail, Google recommends a number of steps, which we have implemented (namely SPF, DKIM, and Precedence: bulk). One additional measure they recommend at https://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=81126#authentication reads as follows: > Because Gmail can help users automatically unsubscribe from your email, we > strongly recommend the following: > > Provide a 'List-Unsubscribe' header which points to an email address where > the user can unsubscribe easily from future mailings (Note: This is not a > substitute method for unsubscribing). Documentation for List-Unsubscribe is found at http://www.list- unsubscribe.com/. From this documentation I expect a button to be provided by a supported mail client. I have tested the 'List-Unsubscribe' header and it does not appear to provide the button. I have tested in both Gmail and OS X Mail. I tested with an http address and with both an email address and an http address. The format of the header is as follows:               List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:unsubscribe-espc-tech-12345N@domain.com>,       <http://domain.com/member/unsubscribe/?listname=espc-tech@domain.com?id=12345N>      No button appears in any test. My questions:   1. How widely is List-Unsubscribe supported?   2. Should a button be appearing somewhere, or does something else have to be present?   3. I have seen a comment that even if the button is not present, services like Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail/Windows Live would give higher regard to email having the header. Thus it might be worthwhile for this aspect alone. Please note that our standard email footer already contacts instructions and a link to allow unsubscribing from our email. Finally, is it worth while to implement this header? (That is, any downsides?)


title: Powermapper alternatives and Google Analytics?

text: What is a good application to map the hierarchical structure of a website and maybe get some Google Analytics action going on? Powermapper is pretty expensive and the trial version didn't seem particularly good at importing Google Analytics CSV files as advertised. In fact, out of the 1000 pages mapped, exactly 0 were successfully imported. I don't really need all the features Powermapper offers anyway, so the price tag is a bit much. All I really need is like, a simple visual representation of my (automatically generated) site structure (like a hierarchical site structure) and the ability to integrate my Google Analytics stats (page views mostly) with it.


title: Hide folder names or such?

text: Okay, I have a cpanel account with unmetered everything (pay a bit per month), so I wanna host my forum on it etc I have the domains as lets say money.com wordpress.com forum.com As I'll have to put everything in different folders for instance money will be in /m/ wordpress /w/ and forum in /forum/ or something. What I'm saying is, how do I hide the file so it'll look like money.com/m/ is actually money.com ?? I need to hide the folder name the contents are in so I can host multiple sites, therefore the site will look like its the only site on the host so I don't have to add a redirect for it to direct it to the folder? Thanks guys, been trying for a while!

title: detecting when you are going to reach your hit limit for Google Analytics free account

text: I am a user of a free Google Analytics account and i'm slightly concerned that I may be approaching the 10,000,000 hit (Pageviews, Events etc) per month. Google state in their documentation: > These limits apply to the Web Property / Property / Tracking ID. >   >   >     10 million hits per month per property >   > > If you go over this limit, the Google Analytics team might contact you and > ask you upgrade to Premium or implement client sampling to reduce the amount > of data being sent to Google Analytics. However, I note that there is nothing to say that you can review or check up on your current usage for the month. I have administrator access to the Google Analytics account, but I see no feature that lets me check up on my monthly usage. I don't know if Google offer this, either by means of the admin interface or via their support channels - but it would certainly be a useful feature. Is there anyway for a free GA user to obtain this information?
