I was reading up on whether or not using the nofollow attribute for internal links was advised and I stumbled upon a post written by Matt Cutts of Google back in 2009. Apparently, after the...

Last year some time, XenForo added a feature called "Search Forums" to their software that I've been playing around with. Apparently, this type of forum looks just like the traditional type to the...

I have a blog that's been alive since around 2005. It's got about 2,500 posts in it and it's been dying a slow death for years. I don't know what's wrong. In the beginning, the blog was ranking...

I noticed something horrific the other day. After my Windows 10 computer went through an update, a new widget type thing appeared in my taskbar. The widget tells the current weather in the taskbar...

Boy, I've been a busy boy. For the past week, I've been putting my old website back together, better than it's ever been. Why? Well, there's a story to that. A couple of months ago, I was talking...

Hi all, I subscribed to this forum because I found this blog post: https://industrydev.com/is-geodesic-solutions-out-of-business/ I run a site based on the GeoCore software. I've paid for...

I received my Tracfone Samsung Galaxy A01 phone yesterday and was excited to set it up. I primarily use it for the web, email, texting, and listening to music. Since Google has gotten rid of Play...

I have a quick question. I recently launched a classifieds website and the software is somewhat of a mess. It's not optimized for search engines at all and I think there are many pages that aren't...

I just thought I'd throw this out there to see if it helps anyone. I've got a blog that's about 16 years old. It hardly gets any traffic. It used to get tons of traffic back between 2005 and 2008...

I'm looking to start getting into blogging. I do a lot of pretty exciting things in my life and I want to write about it and show pictures of it. The thing is, I don't really know where to start...

I was looking at my website account in GSC (Google Search Console) this morning and noticed that Googlebot was trying to crawl a file called favicon.ico a lot. Like, every single day. For some...

I have a few custom fields, such as city and state, that I'd like to add to the thread list on the forum pages. Does anyone know how I might go about doing this? Is there template code that I need...

I have my member and attachment pages currently blocked in the robots.txt file and Google is showing me that there are thousands of pages that are indexed, yet blocked in that file. I don't want...
