Suggestions For Writing Articles Based On Keyword Optimization

There are really 2 ways to write articles today for article marketing. One way is to write articles based on answering questions that you get or to give great content about certain topics. The other way is to write an article with keyword optimization in mind. The idea with keyword optimization is that you want to achieve high search engine rankings for your article based on a specific keyword. In this article, I’m going to give you a few ideas of what you can do to assist you in writing an article based on keyword optimization. 1. Put the keyword in the title first, followed by a dash and then the subtopic from the keyword – For instance, a title based on keyword optimization might be ‘Dog Grooming – 5 Advantages Of Grooming Your Dog Weekly’, or something similar to that. You can see that the keyword is first followed by a dash. If you can, and if the title makes sense, put the keyword in again after the dash. This will help with optimization. 2. Put the ...

Shockingly Good Support From a Hosting Company - Worth Shouting About

In 1998 I started a small (miserably so) online business and had my first experience with selecting a hosting company. Back then it was really no big deal because mine was way too small a business to have many hosting needs and in those early times there was less competition amongst hosting companies. About all I was concerned about was having adequate storage space. Traffic wasn’t even an issue. Still, I ran into unexpected difficulties and soon learned that even very small businesses have to be concerned with more than just disk space. Support was the detail I hadn’t considered. That first experience soured me somewhat because I learned that it can be like pulling teeth to get support from a company that doesn’t take this aspect of business seriously. The company I first hosted with turned out to be located in someone’s home — a fact that was never divulged in the advertising. The man was nice enough, and he tried very hard to accommodate me as lon...

Microsoft Windows Advantages A comprehensive range of software is available for Windows machines, including, of course MS Office. Modern high performance games work well on MS Windows.

History of Open Source Software

Open source software, or software with the source code readily available for users to modify as needed, has a controversial history that extends into the present day. With the computer and technological boom of the modern age, patenting and licensing of software has become an extremely profitable business, as software giant Microsoft can attest. However, software’s humble beginnings sprouted from the free model of open source. Richard Stallman, an employee at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), became involved with open source software in 1971, although he claims the open sourcing community had been around for many years before his participation. Several user groups of the early period include the SHARE group for IBM 701 and the DECUS group for Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). Operating systems in existence at the time, such as UNIX, provided academics and corporate researchers a template for their work. Open source software was extremely valuable during that time...

Introduction to Database Driven Development, PHP and MySQL

PHP is one of the “scripting languages” of the Web. It is an interpreted language, interpreted by the official PHP interpreter, developed specifically for web programming. Being quite similar to ASP in many ways, chances are a change from ASP to PHP would not be all that difficult for a seasoned developer who was experienced in a C-style language. PHP, combined with Apache, or another web server handles all the “standard” web serving side of development; it watches for requests, it hands them off to the appropriate handlers, it sends the required headers, and it finalizes the job. On it’s own, PHP is a language capable of many simple things: date functions, file manipulation, mathematics, logic, all the traditional programming language stuff (including some very feature-filled mechanics for topics such as string manipulation and date manipulation) – but it doesn’t expand in to the power given by database driven web applications. Luckily, there a...

DigitalOcean Vs Rackspace

RackSpace has been in the “cloud” hosting market since it became a big deal in the late 90’s. Founded in 1998, it has revenues upwards of $1.1bn. DigitalOcean is much younger, but has a much narrower scope to its service – catering specifically to developers who want to provision cloud VPS servers. Founded in 2011, DO has risen to become one of the largest hosting providers in the world. Whilst both companies work extremely well, with very high levels of uptime and support – they still have one major problem; they can be quite complicated to consider which one you should be using. The simple answer is that if you’re looking at an “inexpensive” hosting infrastructure, you’ll want to look into DigitalOcean. If your needs are more expansive, RackSpace is by far more effective. RackSpace’s core focus is on its “fanatical support” – they charge accordingly, and are generally a more “expensive” proposi...

Website Security and Your Business Health

Any business today would consider it foolhardy not to use an antivirus program on their office machines. Practically all businesses would also have some built-in redundancy for their data storage just in case there is a hard drive crash or other catastrophic failure caused by fire or flooding. But what most business owners don’t realize is that their websites are just as open to attacks by online hackers and viruses as their local machines. And especially if your websites are hosted on a “virtual server” meaning that multiple sites are hosted using the same hardware. Virtual services are attractive because of their low pricing but this form of hosting also leaves the other websites hosted on that server vulnerable to one bad apple. For example, in May of 2007, over 90,000 websites were hijacked by cybercriminals to illegally install malicious software on visitor’s computers when they clicked on the Google search results. A research conducted by StopBadware found ...
