    Google adsbot?

    That's what I'm wondering. I'm not doing adwords, and have never done. I do have an account, but haven't used it. That's the crux of my confusion. If an adsbot is crawling an early site with not too much content, will the quality score be effected by this? I'm guessing probably not, because...

    NVU, Joomla, any other cheap web page builder?

    Either Bluehost or Hostgator works well. I put a lot of my clients on HostGator because 1) they have excellent customer service, 2) they are locate in a datacenter I'm familiar with, 3) they have a pretty comprehensive energy-savings and environmental impact program, meaning, they're green, or...

    Dreamweaver CS4 vs. Wordpress?

    For what it's worth, I'm a professional graphic designer and have a hosting business on the side, which means that I am well-versed in Unix systems administration. I've had Dreamweaver for years, and almost never use it. If I want to whip out a site, I do it in a content management system like...

    php

    PHP gives you a lot of server-side scripting that HTML can't. The HTML resides inside of the PHP code and displays the page the way you want it to look, but the PHP does most of the interactivity. If it were me, I would put each of my pages in it's own keyword-named directory with an index.php...

    Google adsbot?

    I think I'm just going to keep my head down and keep working on making a great site. This is a lot like when I first got into the hosting business, all the security and admin stuff had me sweating. All the intricacies of keeping Goog happy is a recipe for sleepless nights. I've not yet bought...

    Google adsbot?

    Me, confused? Never! What happened was, I had installed a security filter to my server, and all this adsbot activity started up from 'adsbot-google'. I won't be doing adsense, but planned on buying traffic from search engines, thus my question.

    Google adsbot?

    Nope. Not yet anyway. I planned to do a little adwords, but if I was to buy traffic I would look to MSN, Yahoo and maybe Facebook first. I think a lot of my target uses Google. Top priority is still cranking out all this content, though.

    Google adsbot?

    Question for you good people: Google adbot is searching my new site before I have a lot of content on it. The content that I do have is mostly affiliate links (I only have a few pages at the moment). Will this early google adbot review affect my quality score? Thanks for giving me an...

    When building your niche site, how to get over self-doubt?

    Hey Linda Yes, it is something I'm passionate about. All of my sites (3 decent ones so far) are on topics I enjoy and believe in. I'm not going to promote junk offers for the money. I've been a design and branding consultant for a good few years, and I found that I'm a GREAT salesman when I...

    When building your niche site, how to get over self-doubt?

    Sorry, I now see there's a whole section devoted to this. I'm crawling out of the newbie forums and just peeking around, blinking in the sun.
