News End of March

March 27th, 2007

Hey everyone,

I’ve been very busy lately, working on a new project site which is the New World Order. It’s obviously not done yet, i will have to talk about so many things on that web site i don’t know where to start!

New Template at PHPLDYoursite.com

Check out the new Desty Nova Prototype Template! You got the live demo at my new directory DestyNova.net, you can use it for free for your phpld directories. Just like all the other templates, it is free!

Directories on the Move

If you usually submit to Irka Web Directory or the Webmaster Directory, you will be included today or tomorow, i’ve been checking the links on those 2 free directories, i didn’t had time in February and beginning of March.

I am more busy those days so don’t expect me to check the free directories as often as i did in the past.

Hosting Issues

March 8th, 2007

You ever had a problem with your web hosting? And when you had problems, you asked for support but it wasn’t there!

I am currently using the DailyRazor Hosting company. I had to change lately, cause those guys at Daily Razor doesn’t want to help you in nothing, ” you have a problem? Fine! We don’t! ”

Check out the Conversation with my hosting regarding the problem with DestyNova.net

3 Things that a Hosting Support will always ask you!

1/ The last 4 numbers of your Credit Cards (wtf?)
2/ More details about the problem we are experiencing, now we have to explain what the problem is for them!
3/ And again, more details!

Why do we have to do all the job for them?

Those guys are lazy, that’s all, there is no other explanations to that. Most hosting doesn’t care about your problems since everything is automatic, but what DailyRazor doesn’t know, is that some of their hosting server are crap and most of the misc of phpld doesn’t work on their servers.
For instance Pagerank doesn’t work on DestyNova.net and it still doesn’t work on my Webmaster Directory (there is no pagerank there cause the server doesn’t allow (calculate) it, i don’t even ask for help! I know what i will get!)

I never tried any other Hostings before DailyRazor, and many people are scared to change right? Cause we are afraid of re doing all the stuffs of our sites when we change host! But here is a good hosting > Host Gator, you can ask them to move from 1 hosting to another, and they will do that for you!

The Cancellation Department - A Huge Joke

They are lazy but they are also crook, i never had to cancel an account, and here is what i get when i try to:

What the heck? Cancellation Department, there is a Dpt. for that? I been waiting 2 days to be paid back. They must have a lot of accounts cancelled if they need a ‘Cancellation Department’ and wait that much time.

Never Ask for Explanations When You Know You Are Guilty

Look at the screenshot when i want to cancel my hosting account (above).
The guy Mejhabeen asks me what is the problem or where are they lacking at? Isn’t it just obvious? If you read the first conversation, you will understand what is the problem. Why does he asks me? That’s not professional at all, he knows that! And i don’t have to answer him anyway, if i was to cancel, i want to cancel that’s all, no questions.

I don’t know if you have problems with your hosting, you better figure it out soon, cause the day you have troubles they are not here to help you.

Fake Quality Directory

March 3rd, 2007

I want to introduce my last general directory which is a kind of experiment. FakeQuality doesn’t have much categories, but plenty of links will be listed on each page.

Featured right now are set at 20$/years. Trust me it’ll be more expensive with time, you might want to buy a featured link right now!

Enjoy the free links anyway cause it’s a free directory!

Other Free Directories: Irka Web Directory - Irka Webmaster Directory

CMS List

March 2nd, 2007

Most of the webmasters on the web aren’t geeks, they know Google but, regarding design, programming, and other stuffs they are not as good as knowing the factors of ranking high on G.

So you might need a little help: Content Management System. With a CMS you don’t have to code, you don’t have to design (basically just the logo of your company), and it’s easy to use for the average type of users. For instance that blog uses the Wordpress CMS, I didn’t code it (of course)!

If you are interested in knowing what’s the best CMS on the web nowadays, check Protolize.org, i was impressed by the quality of CMS listed there!

So now you can build a web site easily! Put your message on the web right now!

Google’s Master Plan

March 1st, 2007

- Youtube Google’s Master Plan

Very convincing, seriously it can be dangerous if google is affiliated with the CIA in my humble opinion, specially about the search results… Is it really all automated?

Latest Template at PHPLD Your Site

February 27th, 2007

So you probably know about the Illuminati Template that i did for phpLD, well i had some troubles while i was doing it. By mistake i saved the photoshop file (that was the file which contained the full template with all the pictures, layers and guides and all…) when everything was merged, i didn’t pay attention and i shouted like a mad man! So i had to do it again,

So there are 2 versions!

Old Version:
Old Version

New Version:
New Version

The new one is really better… I guess to do something perfectly you have to re-do it again! I really like that second version more!

the News for February

February 24th, 2007

I’ve been maintaining Isamu directory, when i say maintaining i mean adding categories, adding good sites and other things, to give it more content. There are lot’s of categories empty with PR so i thought i’d exploit them. You also can have your site listed there but it’s not free!

Till the end of February TheSquat is free!

TheSquat is all free till the end of February and beginning of March! So get your site listed there! I’ll be picky on the sites that gets included though, don’t submit crap!

New Template(s) Available at PHPLD Your Site

Check out the Illuminati Template! It is for both version 3.0.6 and 3.1 + the version 2.1! You will love the design and we hope you’ll use it for one of your future or current directories project :D

Would i do this if Search Engines didn’t Exist?

February 21st, 2007

If you are a webmaster, you ever asked yourself that question? When you do a site, is it for the user or for the search engines? Or both?

Would i do this if search engines didn’t exist?

If you read the google webmasters guideline which is just PR4, it should be PR7 minimum, that’s one weird thing but, they use that questions as a way to ‘gives us insights’. Well let me give you some insights… Here is the question i would really ask:

Would i do this if google adsense didn’t exist?

Googlebombs Being Minimized

February 16th, 2007

I’m kind of late about the googlebomb subject. If you don’t know what googlebomb is, well it is a term you employ when someone tries to rank for a keywords with no traffic and meaning whatsoever, but just for political or personal reasons.

Late in 2005, for instance, a website containing informations about George Bush ranked for ‘miserable failure’, which is completely of political issues. That can create a lot of problems, google claims also there are actually 100 active googlebombs on the web right now.

You can read on the official google webmaster blog, that they can’t change things by hand, google works by algorithm and is automatic, sometimes they have to remove listings on a SERP (search engine results page) because of violent content, shocking content, or spam. But they don’t want to stop the googlebombs by hand (they can stop it).

So google came up with a new algorithm that should minimize the effects of googlebombs, it was back in January 2007.

I was planning to do a conspiracy site and googlebomb bush with some keywords, i guess it’s gonna be tough! :D
