Redirecting in php

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

I was looking for a redirect code and found one. I’ll add it here so I’ll not lose it and maybe someone else can use it.
{php}
http_redirect("http://www.yoursite.com");
{/php}

Site Hacked

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

It’s happened before, and I’m certain it will happen again – one of my sites got hacked. This time it was a Wordpress blog, similar to this. I was wondering why I was getting ads for Viagra showing up and didn’t have anything relevant to that posted. After viewing the page source, tucked away in the footer of my blog were hundreds of links to far eastern websites selling knock-off drugs.

Word to the wise: Keep secure, and keep an eye on your websites.

Pay for Blog Posting Schemes.

Quite often, I find myself reading the Links for Sale forums in DigitalPoint for a good deal and to keep up on market link pricing. Lately, I’ve been noticing more and more blog owners selling blog posts. These range from $5 to $25, and the shocking part of it is you write the post yourself.

Please don’t get me wrong, I have written reviews for websites and software for hire, but I always write them myself. It just doesn’t seem right to do otherwise.

For a webmaster, two things rule – Money and content. In this case, the blog owner is getting both with no work on his/her own.

PR Update Plugin for PHPLD

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

For well over a year I’ve been interested in a mod for PHPLD 3.0+ that will update the page rank values for all the links. I’ve looked into it in the past, and couldn’t find anything I didn’t have to pay for. My search ended today as I was reading a post on Alive Blog about sorting a directory by order of page rank, and it mentioned the phpLD PR Update Tool. I followed the link and came to the Jago Harry Blog (Another quality Wordpress theme by Brian Gardner by the way!)

Anyway, I downloaded this Mod, took ten minutes to go through the install and whoala! A new quick, easy, and best of all, FREE PR update mod for my directories!

Affiliate Marketing and Search Arbitrage

Saturday, February 10th, 2007

For those that know me well, I made a small fortune last year with Search Arbitrage. Perhaps I’ll go into details in another post, but for now I’ll share this video with you.

Pepperjam CEO Kris Jones discusses how Google Adwords and others are adjusting to the market. I have noticed these changes, and as a result I have suffered tremendous financial hardship because of it.
