Better Alexa Rankings
- Download the Alexa ranking button, traffic history graph, info links,
and other traffic counters onto the page of your website that receives
the most traffic. For example, at the right of my page JoomlaMafia.com,
I’ve added the Alexa ranking box. You can do the same for your own
site by visiting http://www.alexa.com/site/site_stats/signup You’ll
notice that I haven’t added the traffic history graph. This is because
it wouldn’t look appropriate on my home page and because Alexa is
only providing detailed history on the top 100,000 sites. So if you’re
not in the top 100,000, site stats would not be available.
- Take an inexpensive advertisement out on the iWebTool
- Take an inexpensive advertisement out on the ExactSeek search directory for only a few dollars per month at ExactSeek.com Search engine results are directly correlated with Alexa rankings. You’ll notice that if a website is highly ranked on ExactSeek, chances are that it will be highly ranked on Alexa. (NOTE: Please only do this one if money isn't tight as things may have recently changed)
- Get listed on as many search engines as possible by placing a free
listing in DMOZ. This is the largest human edited directory on the web
and is co-branded among hundreds of thousands of sites. Be patient though,
it often takes up to 5 months before you see your website listed after
submission. Even though it takes longer than it should, you have little
say in the matter because it’s so widely used across the Internet.
These simple Alexa strategies are easy to implement and will make a huge difference in your Alexa ranking. Ultimately you want visitors to do more than visit your home page, you want them to interact with your site. Be sure to optimize your home page for SEO purposes, ease of use, and interaction. Creating a positive user experience will get visitors to return again and again. - For more information on SEF/SEO and building corporate credit check out my site other site http://www.mmmkay.info

Joomla Security Tips - 001
Like the homey Bob Marley said "Collective security for surety". The "how secure is Joomla?" question is about as common as ASL was in those dumbass AOL chat channels. Put it this way, it was, and still is, developed by a group of humans, and since humans are animals, most likely there are probably still a few lines of animalistic code in there. That's just about how it is for every piece of software developed by humans. So until we get to the point of outsourcing aliens, what should you do about Joomla security?
- Register in the Joomla Community Forum at http://forum.joomla.org
- Subscribe to the Security Announcements forum http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/board,372.0.html
- Subscribe to the "Security" sections for your corresponding Joomla version: Security for Joomla 1.0 (http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/board,267.0.html) , and Security for Joomla 1.5 (http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/board,432.0.html )
- Set your forum profile to receive notifications with new posts are made to these forums (http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,192791.0.html)
We know how much you hate reading so lets cut it short for now. In a later piece we will provide more general tips with regards to extensions/add-ons. Don't take this whole security thing lightly homes. Next thing you know someone has an amateur pr0n clip on your front page, and you're sitting back like a idoit wondering how and why.
