MyBlogLog Widgets suck!!

by WilliamC

Okay not really, but MyBlogLog uses javascript to produce nicely formatted "last [x] visitors" on your blog.

But the search engines do not read javascript…

Here is a simple little php script you can copy into a page that can display php.

This currently only works for the widgets that display the large icons with link text names. I am working on adding functionality for the other style and will post it here when it is done.

Simply put the widget code mybloglog gives you in the variable I provide and you can now pass some link love to your visitors profile pages as well as your own.

An example is live at http://www.seofox.com/widget.php

Code:
<?php

  // put your generated widget code from mybloglog here
  $mybloglog_widget_code = '';

  // DO NOT TOUCH BELOW HERE PLEASE
  $geturl = str_replace('<script type="text/javascript" src="', '', $mybloglog_widget_code);
  $geturl = str_replace('"></script>','', $geturl);
  $result = file_get_contents($geturl);
  $result = str_replace('mbl_pub_str += "', '', $result);
  $result = str_replace('";', '', $result);
  $result = str_replace('\"', '"', $result);
  $result = str_replace("<style type='text/css'>", "</script>\n<style type='text/css'>", $result);
  $result = str_replace('document.write(mbl_pub_str);', '', $result);
  $result = '<script>' . $result;
  echo "$result\n";
  echo "<a href=http://www.seofox.com target=new style=\"font-size:11px;\">SeoFox Enhanced</a>\n";

?>

No More Images Next to Google PPC Advertisements

by Staff Writer

Images Next to PPC AdvertisementsWhen Yahoo! Publisher Network first released their Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Service, many people commented on how they were not allowed to place images next to the PPC Advertisements, even though at that time Google allowed their publishers to place images next to their advertisements.

Placing images next to PPC Advertisements to make the user think there was a relation between the two (and getting more clicks) was a common practice used by many of the grayhat Google AdSense publishers at the time. We have supplied an example as well.

Google has recenty announced that they will not be tolerating images next to their PPC Advertisements.

Now that the two leading PPC Programs have disallowed this grayhat tactic, will grayhat publishers need to wait until Microsoft launches it's PPC Program and hope they allow publishers to place images next to their PPC Advertisements?

Benefits of 301 Redirects and How to Use Them with Apache

by MikeR

A common question that I run across is "What is a 301 redirect?" Simply put, it's a way to say that your page(s) have been permanently redirected to another location that you specify. There is a big difference between 301 redirects and 302 redirects. A 302 redirect signifies that your page(s) have temporarily moved. It is my opinion that 302 (temporary) redirects are absolutely pointless and should be avoided. In fact, during the 2007 Las Vegas Pubcon, the entire panel (consisting of Matt Cutts of Google, Tim Mayer of Yahoo, Greg Boser of WebGeurrilla, Danny Sullivan and others) said that there is no good use for 302 redirects ever.

Now that we have established that 301 redirects are the way to go, what are some circumstances that would make you want to use them in the first place?  Well, if for instance, you transferred a site from one domain to another, you will want all of your backlinks not turning into 404 File Not Found errors, but instead going to the new domain. Even if you are transferring files around on the same domain, you may want to utilize 301 redirects in order to prevent losing any backlinks you have gotten over time.

In order to perform 301 redirects with Apache, you need to be able to create/modify .htaccess files. As a general rule, I always place my .htaccess files in the document root.

A simple example, you own OldDomain.com, but need to transfer all traffic to NewDomain.com. The process is very simple. Go to the document root on the OldDomain.com server and if a .htaccess file already exists, add the following to it (or create it if it doesn't already exist):

Redirect 301 / http://www.NewDomain.com/

If you need to redirect only a specific directory:
Redirect 301 /directory /new_directory

Or if you need to redirect only a specific file:
Redirect 301 /file.html /new_file.html

As you can tell, the basic syntax is as follows:
Redirect 301 <old> <new>

That's all for this post, folks. Good luck : ).
