Subdomains and its SEO advantage

Most people refrain from using sub domains because they use a prefix name and don’t “look” right. A lot of people are also under the impression that they are overlooked by the Search Engines.

basically, there are two kinds of subdomains:

1. Second Tier subdomains: These are linked to, and link directly to, the main domain.

2. Orphan Subdomains: These have no links to or from the main domain.

Second Tier Subdomains

You have a website. You spend alot of time building it, refining it, tweaking it into oblivion to get the search engine results you are looking for, yet you don’t get visitors. We have all heard by now the advantages of having a blog for promoting your website. You put it on a subdomain. Example:

www.yoursite.com will be your main domain www.blog.yoursite.com will be where your blog resides.

Once you have your blog, adding a link to it on your menu takes a couple of seconds, and voila – your blog is up and running. This is the part where you feverishly start posting articles about your niche market, your product, or your service, and link to your website from each article. Blogs are amazing: Search Engines love them, and they generally get good PR very quickly. This means, by default, that if your blog outranks your site in terms of PR, every link to your main site from your blog is a QUALITY INBOUND LINK… You can further up the PR on your main site by deeplinking (linking to other pages on your site, not only the landing/home page) to your site.

Orphan Subdomains

After pointing out the advantage of a Second Tier subdomain, you might be caught wondering what the use of an Orphan Subdomain is then.

Here’s a little known fact: If a subdomain gets banned by a Search Engine, it does not affect the main domain. I’ll repeat this: IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE MAIN DOMAIN. Important though: This rule ONLY applies to Orphan Subdomains, meaning there must be no link to, or from the main domain. So how do I use it then? Well, with this knowledge we can use the situation to our advantage. You can use a Orphan Subdomain to put up affiliate ‘cashcows’ or ‘moneymaking’ websites. Build a site, keyword spam it, and make a quick killing before taking it down and starting a new one. Whatever you do on this ‘site’ or subdomain will not affect your main domain, so go mad. You can also use it as a link farm, in terms of linking to other websites you might own. No one has to view the site, so it can be an ugly, confusing mess. As long as your keywords and on page SEO is fine, you can generate high quality inbound links to your other sites, pushing them in the SERPS. Putting up a blog with generated, keyword rich content is a good example of how to do this. Should the site/blog get banned for some reason while you are experimenting – no harm, no fowl.

GlassFish and MySQL, A Perfect Combination for Web Applications

November 19th, 2008 Jigish Thakar No comments

With more than 100 million downloads, MySQL is the world’s most popular open-source database. MySQL’s popularity is indicative of the growing adoption of open-source software. Developers are using open-source software because it offers them a reliable and low-cost alternative for developing their applications. This adoption trend extends to middleware too. For example, open-source servers are replacing proprietary servers in many enterprises. Case in point: GlassFish, an open-source, enterprise-quality, Java EE 5-compliant application server, enjoys significant popularity. With more than seven million downloads since its release in May 2005 and more than half a million downloads a month, GlassFish has a widespread and growing community of users.

When used together, MySQL and GlassFish provide an excellent, low-cost solution for quickly developing and deploying web applications that are not only secure and reliable, but also scale to meet increasing demand and are highly responsive to user requests.

The reasons that so many people download and use MySQL and GlassFish are compelling. In addition to being open source, MySQL and GlassFish are fast, reliable, and easy to use. Though attractive individually, MySQL and GlassFish when used together provide an excellent solution for quickly developing and deploying web applications that are not only secure and reliable, but also scale to meet increasing demand and are highly responsive to user requests.

This article, the first in a series of articles, covers the advantages of using MySQL with GlassFish and illustrates why the combination is a perfect choice for developing and deploying web applications. In future articles in the series, you’ll see how easy it is to build web applications that take advantage of MySQL and GlassFish features.

Although various versions of GlassFish and MySQL are available for download, this series of articles focuses on GlassFish v2 Update Release 2 (UR2) and MySQL 5.1 Community Server.

HTML to PDF (using DOMPDF) – PHP

August 28th, 2008 Jigish Thakar 13 comments

After using the FPDF library, I came to know that making PDF using the same is so time consuming. And some time it is not possible to develop the report as per the users requirement because of its limitation. Then I found the DOMPDF library in which we just need to pass the HTML code as string to the its class and the PDF will be generated. Even thought it has some limitations but for some level this is the best way of generating PDF through PHP.

The link and the example for this is as given below:

http://www.digitaljunkies.ca/dompdf/

 

<?php

require_once("dompdf_config.inc.php");

$html =  '<html><body>'.
'<p>Put your html here, or generate it with your favourite '.
'templating system.</p>'.
'</body></html>';

$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html($html);
$dompdf->render();
$dompdf->stream("sample.pdf");

?>

so guys take the advantage of such a nice efforts…
