DMOZ just made the biggest mistake.

Aug 26th 2007 - Posted by Ahson Rafiq

Man, jeez.

This one is rich..

So i was browsing digitalpoint when i was catching a break from my daily hassle of a life,  and i read Jeremy’s blog and i was shcoked to read that he was being extorted by a DMOZ editor, i mean if he had picked on a smaller blog it would not have been an issue but this was just ridiculous, this DMOZ editor is picking on one of the most famous web marketers around with a huge audience which listens to every blurb and every show Jeremy does.

Well its not really about picking on the weak its about morals, unless money is involved no one performs their best that is the reason why non-paid submissions to directories do-not do well since the editors aren’t being paid to do any work they make money by selling approvals to DMOZ, yep it does sound sad.

People can say whatever they want, truth is DMOZ does give alot of value to a site and untill google does ANYTHING about it, it will stay the same.

My ADs know more about me…

John Chow’s comeback?

Aug 22nd 2007 - Posted by Ahson Rafiq

Well i wanted to see how John Chow was doing so i thought why not query him, maybe he’s back, but its worse now the mock site for john cow is ranking no.1 for the term John Chow.

And to further heat up things John Chow got a custom design made for his blog to tell his customers that “yea im still in the game”, the new deisgn is totally made to sell ads and yea it does nest the content really nice like but still id prefer more eye candy and usability then just make a place holder of a design just to sell ads.

In conclusion, almost any blog can get into the top 10 serps for any keyword at google, the crawling/indexation  at google is 10 times faster then any search engine.

Have a good night!

Web Tool : Bulk Stats

Aug 11th 2007 - Posted by Ahson Rafiq

NEW WEB TOOL!


Bulk Stats

What features does this have?

- Option selection, allows you to choose what you search for, increases search times.

- REAL TIME lookup: Sick of waiting till the entire list is done so you can get your results. No more! The script outputs as fast as it receives the information. Don’t wait around! Get the stats as soon as you can!

- Logging to .TXT - Already done the search once? Don’t want to have to type in the URLs again? Good news! All results are logged to the /saves/ folder, (CHMOD 777 it.) - This means you can show the results to your friends etc, and if an option isn’t selected. It isn’t logged either.

- Logging to .CSV - Done the list? But you don’t want to show you friends so you don’t need .TXT - But you do what to manipulate the output in a spreadsheet program like GoogleApps, Excel or OpenOffice - Then it logs to a .csv with the same filename as a .TXT - Allowing easy access and manipulation of output data.

- Right to remove the Copyright - You MAY remove the Copyright OR change it however you like.

Please note, I can’t guarantee infinite, because not all servers are set up in the same way. Infinite is a very big number, it should however be able to cope with 100 easily. It all depends on the PHP timeout ur server is using and other variables

- Column Sorting: Click the row headers to automatically order the results by anything you like, want the domains to be in alphabetical order? Order of lowest to highest PR? Highest to lowest Alexa Rank? It will be done smoothly and instantly, allowing easier viewing of data. Even better, it smoothly degrades in Javascript disabled browsers!

- Row and Cell highlighting - Sick of not knowing which row your looking up? Now it highlights the entire row with a subtle tone, allowing you to easily see what your looking up.

- Example List - At the click of a button, the text area can be instantly populated with the top 20 sites in the world, allowing users to view not only the status of the world’s greatest sites, but also allow them to use your script when their is no list. This means even someone who stumbles upon your site by accident can use it, without even a list to check. (This list is also good for demo uses)

- Help Guide - At the click of the button, a help guide (which I’m still writing, but you can change) will popup, allowing the user to see detailed instructions on how to use the powerful script. Even the most ignorant person can use this simple point and click script.

- Huge list of lookups - Not only can this script lookup:

- IP Address of server hosting the domain
- Alexa Rank
- Google PageRank
- D.MOZ listed
- Google Backlinks (How many sites does Google find that link to your URL)
- Yahoo! Backlinks
- AltaVista Backlinks
- AllTheWeb Backlinks
- Age of Domain
- Link to WHOIS Details
- Thumbnail which is activated on Rollover
Unique: Number of links on the page

Digg going down!

Aug 9th 2007 - Posted by Ahson Rafiq

Youch, i just saw this graph by accident, i was just viewing my other site’s alexa/backlinks..etc and some of the traffic was from digg so i checked that digg story out, and i saw digg’s alexa graph, this is really quite a shock to me, since its the biggest downward spike ive seen in digg’s history.

Thought i should share

Google Pagerank Update 2007 August.

Should we close down the net?

Aug 6th 2007 - Posted by Ahson Rafiq

Nah!

I love people who express themselves but this is just down right stupid, meet Mr. Elton John he wants to shut the internet down and its not because of music piracy nor because of the smut going around but its because people are making poopy music, yes you heard that right he doesn’t really care about other things, all this is just because he doesn’t think the music that artists are making good enough music….well boo freaking hoo..

The internet is much more then a platform for music, with google,yahoo and msn its becoming a marketing/advertising media hub, and im one of the groupies in there somewhere, so i dont think anythings going down here.

Most of the times when i tell my fellow marketers this they call it “a storm in a teacup” but the last time it made “report paid links” hah, so this time im gonna say it, this is a storm in a teacup, not even mr.gates could stop piracy online…
