			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Copyright www.reaper-x.com | <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2008/02/25/testing-desktop-search-tools/" title="Testing Desktop Search Tools"><strong>Testing Desktop Search Tools</strong></a> by <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com" title="Reaper-X .:[ ID ]:. &#187; Search Engine"><strong>Reaper-X</strong></a></p><p>Yesterday I just tested 3 free Desktop Search Tools (freeware not free trial) in order to make things easier for me to search for specific words located on many text files on my hard drive. But just in case you didn’t know what Desktop Search means, here are some descriptions about it taken from Wikipedia</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Desktop search is the name for the field of search tools which search the contents of a user's own computer files, rather than searching the Internet. These tools are designed to find information on the user's PC, including web browser histories, e-mail archives, text documents, sound files, images and video.</p>
<p>Desktop search engines <strong>build and maintain an index database to achieve reasonable performance</strong> when searching several gigabytes of data. Indexing usually takes place when the computer is idle and most search applications can be set to suspend it if a portable computer is running on batteries, in order to save power.</p>
</blockquote>
<p> In other words Desktop Search Tools basically is just the same as your own search engine with the exception it’s used to index files stored on your computer. And the index can grow larger depending on how many files the Desktop Tools indexed</p>
<p> And I guess that’s enough for the introduction part, now here goes the test results (I know that probably some of you don’t like to read long texts so I’ll just put the plus and minus of each program) but first as a note, that this is based on my personal preference after doing some test with these Desktop Search tools</p>
<p><span id="more-731"></span></p>
<h2>Google Desktop Search (GDS)</h2>
<p><img src="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Google-Desktop-Search.jpg" alt="Google Desktop Search Screenshot" border="0"/></p>
<p><em>Download Link :</em> </p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://desktop.google.com/">Google Desktop Search</a></li>
<li><a href="http://desktop.google.com/enterprise">Google Desktop Search Enterprise</a></li>
</ul>
<p><em>Tested Version: Google Desktop 5.7.0801.01629-en-pb</em></p>
<p><em>Plus:</em> </p>
<ol>
<li>Easy to set up, basically all you have to do is just install it and you just need to wait for it to index your files</li>
<li>Support Google product such as Gmail, so you can use it to search your Gmail inbox (you can guess the reason for that)</li>
<li>Support searching across computers (make sure to read the privacy notes)</li>
<li>Support searching Thunderbird by default (since I’m not using Outlook I can’t give you any info about this)</li>
<li>Support many files type</li>
<li>Support displaying files inside archive, and more (rar, zip, etc) with the correct plug-ins installed</li>
</ol>
<p><em>Minus:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>Takes a long time to index your computer for the initial indexing, because Google Desktop only start crawling your computer when your computer is in idle state only</li>
<li>No Force Indexing button to force indexing your computer even if it’s not in idle state</li>
<li>There’s no GUI to change the default index location, because you’ll need to edit it manually on Google Desktop registry settings</li>
</ol>
<p><em>Special Notes:</em></p>
<p>If you’re using Google Desktop Enterprise which is bundled with Google Group Policy Templates (although you’ll need to import it manually) you can adjust most of the options from there (including some settings that is not previously can only be edited via registry) and you can also adjust it for current user only or for all users. Here’s a screenshot of how the Google Group Policy Settings look like</p>
<p><a href="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Google-Desktop-Search-Group-Policy-Full.jpg"><img src="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Google-Desktop-Search-Group-Policy.jpg" alt="Google Desktop Search Enterprise Group Policy" border="0"/></a><br/><em>(Click at the image to see the full size)</em></p>
<h2>Windows Desktop Search</h2>
<p><img src="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Windows-Desktop-Search.jpg" alt="Windows Desktop Search Screenshot" border="0"/></p>
<p><em>Tested Version : Windows Desktop Search 3.01</em></p>
<p><em>Download Link:</em></p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/desktopsearch/default.mspx">Microsoft Windows Desktop Search</a></li>
</ul>
<p><em>Plus:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>User can force Indexing of files even if your computer is in use, that means fast indexing of your files</li>
<li>User can adjust the stored index location without the need to open the registry</li>
<li>Search results displayed on it’s own Window or within the deskbar</li>
<li>Support Microsoft Outlook by default without the need of additional plug-ins</li>
<li>Support Network Share</li>
<li>Automatically integrated into Windows Explorer without the need for plug-in but if you prefer the old search function you can always use the Default Search Companion</li>
<li>Configured to index many files by default and you can add desired file extension to be indexed easily within the GUI and adjust it so it’ll display the content automatically or just displaying it’s filename only</li>
</ol>
<p><img src="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Windows-Desktop-Search-Explorer.jpg" alt="Windows Desktop Search integrated into Explorer" border="0"/></p>
<p><em>Minus:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>The default indexed directory after installation is set to User Documents and Settings only so make sure to adjust it</li>
<li>It’s quite disturbing to replace the default windows search companion with the Windows desktop search that requires the folder to be indexed first</li>
<li>Lack Thunderbird support. It’d be better if they could support Thunderbird by default but I’m not sure whether they’ll support it. As a side note actually there’s support for Thunderbird with plug-in but since it’s still has some limitations I choose to skip it</li>
</ol>
<h2>Copernic Desktop Search</h2>
<p><img src="http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/2008/Copernic-Desktop-Search-2.gif" alt="Copernic Desktop Search Home Edition 2"/></p>
<p><em>Tested Version: Copernic Desktop Search Home Edition 2.3</em></p>
<p><em>Download Link:</em></p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.copernic.com/en/products/desktop-search"> Copernic Desktop Search Home Edition</a></li>
</ul>
<p><em>Plus:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>Support many files type and if you need more you can add it so it’ll be indexed, in other words it can also act as your normal search function</li>
<li>Amazingly Fast Indexing and you can always force it to index your files even if your computer is not in idle state</li>
<li>Built-in support for Thunderbird, Outlook / Outlook Express and Eudora email client programs</li>
<li>Results displayed inside the program window and can also be displayed within the deskbar</li>
<li>You can adjust everything from the configuration window</li>
</ol>
<p><em>Minus:</em></p>
<ol>
<li>Most archive (other than zip) is still not supported. It’ll be great if they offer support for Rar and 7z file format by default</li>
<li>Program hang when quick viewing large file (tested on 60 MB SQL File) even if the maximum file size for content indexing is set to 10MB (default value) or 1MB</li>
</ol>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Although Windows Desktop Search and Copernic have many similarities, in the end I choose Copernic Desktop Search Home Edition for my desktop search tool because it offers the same features like the Windows Desktop Search Tools, but it’s much faster when it comes to crawling files stored on your hard drive, and I like the CDS interface better compared to WDS</p>
<p>But of course if you prefer to have them both installed (WDS and CDS or any other combination), because you want specific feature that is only available on that program, you can choose to install them both and configure one program to index specific area while let the other program do the rest, for example set Copernic Desktop Search to index your Mozilla Thunderbird email messages while at the same time let the Windows Desktop Search to index your other files</p>
<p>As for Google Desktop Search, since the crawling speed can’t be adjusted, I choose to uninstall it (I’ve tried searching around the web for this and still couldn’t find anything that can allow Google Desktop Search to index files even if your computer is not in idle state and have tried playing around with it’s registry setting without getting good result)</p>

But now if you&rsquo;re wondering does the new tags function can really give you some benefit from Search Engine and your site visitors&nbsp;point of view ? The answer of course is depend on your site visitors itself and whether you care about duplicate content&nbsp;or not, so it&rsquo;s up to you to decide it ;)</p>
<p><span id="more-667"></span></p>
<p>The first is all about tags / categories (since both of them offer the same view so i consider it to be exactly the same). Do you really think your site need to use tags if basically they just shows you the same content ?</p>
<p>Previously Google Webmaster Central published a great article about <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/12/20/wordpress-duplicate-content-and-google/">duplicate content issues and how to prevent it</a>&nbsp;but in this case, here are the most important point you should take note&nbsp;:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Block appropriately:</strong> <em>Rather than letting our algorithms determine the &ldquo;best&rdquo; version of a document, you may wish to help guide us to your preferred version</em>. For instance, if you don&rsquo;t want us to index the printer versions of your site&rsquo;s articles, disallow those directories or make use of regular expressions in your robots.txt file.</p>
<p><strong>Understand your CMS:</strong> Make sure you&rsquo;re familiar with how content is displayed on your Web site, particularly if it includes a blog, a forum, or related system that often <em>shows the same content in multiple formats</em>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>If it&rsquo;s for me, i&rsquo;d rather choose to block it (the category page i mean, because i&rsquo;m not interested on using tags&nbsp;on this site)&nbsp;&hellip; and of course that&rsquo;s because i always believe that most people came to this site mostly from search engine, but what would happen if those visitors arrived at your categories page and couldn&rsquo;t find&nbsp;matching article because search engine shows them&nbsp;the old description from your category page / tags page ? well &hellip; there are two possibility for this :</p>
<ol>
<li>They&rsquo;ll use the search function on your site</li>
<li>They&rsquo;re going to leave your site by pressing the back button on their browser and continue&nbsp;with the next&nbsp;results</li>
</ol>
<p>Though most people are going to choose the second option instead</p>
<p>Of course the above points&nbsp;does not applies to your site if you consider your site at the same level as <a href="http://problogger.net/">Darren Rowse of Problogger</a>&nbsp;(because you&rsquo;ll always get many links to your post) just as <a href="http://www.seobook.com/archives/002030.shtml">Aaron Wall of Seobook</a> said on how to get your blog out of Google&rsquo;s supplemental result&nbsp;:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>If you get strong editorial deep links from other bloggers that should also help search engines crawl that portion of your site better to make up for any information architecture related issues that may be causing certain portions of your blog to be inadequately crawled.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>As a side note, according to&nbsp;this site&nbsp;Google Analytics for the previous month, this site only received a total of 265 Pageviews from only the Category view, while the total pageviews for the previous month reached 200.718 to be exact it&rsquo;s 200.453 with the category view excluded&nbsp;&hellip; so if it&rsquo;s for me i believe that most people who browse this site isn&rsquo;t interested on looking at the category view page (although i&rsquo;ve made it so it&rsquo;ll looks like a tags page &hellip; and that&rsquo;s all thanks to my big mistake i made when i still hosted&nbsp;at wordpress.com)</p>

<p><span id="more-653"></span></p>
<blockquote>
<p>All the Google features such as GMail, Adwords, Adsense, and just plain old Google Search have been lagging a little more than usual for me. Google has something going on. I think soon Google will surprise us with a bunch of new features. Just be patient all you PR fanatics! Can you say algorythm update!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>With the exception that i don&rsquo;t think there&rsquo;s PR Update going on &hellip; i just think that there&rsquo;re some network issues somewhere. Other than that i also noticed a slow loading time when accessing my adsense account page or searching the web using Google although i don&rsquo;t really have problem with the GMail or Adwords simply because i don&rsquo;t use it (well i'm using Google hosted email and using POP3 to retrieve all emails)</p>
<p>I don&rsquo;t know if it&rsquo;s just me or does anyone else who visited this site also experience&nbsp;delay especially at the Javascript part which is comes from the Google CSE, but recently i&rsquo;ve been thinking on moving the Javascript over to this site &hellip; but i&rsquo;m not sure whether if it&rsquo;s going to break Google rules or not (i know that this&nbsp;vps is nothing compared to the Google server, but it just bothering me because whenever i try to access this site, i always&nbsp;see some&nbsp;delay when loading the Google CSE Javascript code)</p>

<blockquote>
<p>The distinction between the main and the supplemental index is therefore continuing to narrow. Given all the progress that we've been able to make so far, and thinking ahead to future improvements, <em>we've decided to stop labeling these URLs as "Supplemental Results."</em> Of course, you will continue to benefit from Google's supplemental index being deeper and fresher.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>At first i thought i was having a big success on getting out some of my pages from the Google Supplemental Index, but I guess that&rsquo;s explain why i didn&rsquo;t see supplemental results label on when querying this site using Google since a&nbsp;few days&nbsp;ago (or perhaps more thought i can&rsquo;t remember exactly)</p>
<p>In my opinion, it&rsquo;d be more useful if Google keep displaying the supplemental results label because it really help the webmaster to improve their site even more, but that&rsquo;s just my opinion &hellip;</p>

Here&rsquo;s the short description about this new Google Referrals program from the <a rel="nofollow" href="http://adsense.blogspot.com/2007/03/now-accepting-applications-for-new.html">Google Adsense blog</a> :</p>
<p><em>As with our current Google referrals, you'll generate earnings when your visitors click through to an advertiser's site and complete an action defined by your advertisers, such as a sale or sign-up. Because these actions are often more involved than a simple click or impression, advertisers pay more for these referrals, which can translate into higher earnings for your site</em></p>
<p>As you can see that this new program is just like the old pay-per-click type, with&nbsp;an addition that&nbsp;your site visitors must complete an action defined by the advertisers first</p>
<p>Unfortunately this beta program only open for specific publishers only (i'm pretty sure that most of the new publishers that is getting accepted with this beta program are large publishers only / or those who&rsquo;s having large site)</p>
<p>But just in case you&rsquo;re interested on trying the new referrals beta program, you can sign up <a href="http://www.google.com/ads/adsense/referrals/">from here</a></p>

And&nbsp;because of&nbsp;it, there are various&nbsp;site that&rsquo;s offering service to track your adsense click, or if you really care about privacy or dont want to share your adsense click info, you can also use open source adsense tracking program called <em><a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/12/12/track-your-adsense-click-for-free-with-adlogger/">Adlogger</a></em></p>
<p>But is it necessary for you to use those services or using various <em>adsense tracker</em> script out there ? if it&rsquo;s for .. the short answer would be .. no, it&rsquo;s not necessary to use click tracking software or services for adsense. But why ?</p>
<p><span id="more-454"></span></p>
<p><strong>If you&rsquo;re installing the adlogger to track your&nbsp;adsense clicks&nbsp;</strong>:</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s not accurate even if you use Google Analytics to track your adsense click with the help of&nbsp;a javascript. It&rsquo;s not going to report the actual stats, and only Google know about your&nbsp;detailed adsense statistic even for the click fraud activity if there&rsquo;s any</p>
<p><strong>Why it&rsquo;s not accurate ?</strong></p>
<p>There are various forum topic about this, and here&rsquo;s what they said about adlogger :</p>
<p>From <a href="http://www.webmasterworld.com/google_adsense/3254383.htm">Webmaster World</a>&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;16 February 2007&nbsp;:</p>
<ol>
<li><em>Adlogger is kinda useless. First in firefox if you go over the ads it count 1 click. Also its no very compitable with ie7 and hundreds of other bugs</em></li>
<li><em>In firefox a "hover" counts a click</em></li>
</ol>
<p>From <a href="http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=265544">DigitalPoint Forums</a>&nbsp;&ndash; 11 March 2007 :</p>
<ol>
<li><em>Adloger is worthless...i wouldnt bother with it. It doesn't track clicks it tracks mouse position over your adsense code</em></li>
</ol>
<p>And the conclusion is adlogger also counts mouse hover a click. But don&rsquo;t get me wrong, <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/12/12/track-your-adsense-click-for-free-with-adlogger/">adlogger</a> can be useful for you&nbsp;especially if you want to block specific ads from appearing on your site by adding the url that&rsquo;s displayed on your adlogger statistic into your Google Adsense account under <em>Competitive Filter List.</em> And this could be useful to block those MFA (Made for Adsense) site</p>
<p>The&nbsp;alternative way&nbsp;to automatically generate various MFA site for you to use by&nbsp;one click is by using <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/12/18/use-adsblacklist-to-filter-mfa-websites/">AdsBlackList</a></p>
<p><strong>What about various 3rd party site that&rsquo;s offering to track your adsense clicks ?</strong></p>
<p>Although i&rsquo;ve never used 3rd party click tracking service for my adsense ads, personally i do not recommend you to use them. Because if you use it, they can also track which keyword is best on your site. And in the end you just help them to make more money. So in this case i&rsquo;d suggest you to use adlogger instead. But this is just from my own opinion</p>
<p><strong>Is there any good adsense click tracker script out there ?</strong></p>
<p>I do not know much about this,&nbsp;but from my point of view&nbsp;there&rsquo;s no need to really track your adsense ads. Just leave it to Google (trust them in this case), beside there&rsquo;s nothing you can do if you&rsquo;re clicking on your&nbsp; adsense ads and got banned from Google Adsense or violating adsense guidelines .. and you might also interested on <a href="http://www.webmasterworld.com/google_adsense/3163920.htm">reading this topic from Webmaster World</a> about click fraud</p>
<p>Other than that you also might be interested on <a href="https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=9718">reading this topic</a> from Google adsense Help Center</p>

Here&rsquo;s what <a href="http://searchengineland.com/070315-221747.php">Danny Sullivan</a>&nbsp;(the GodFather of search engine)&nbsp;said about this :</p>
<p><strong>How They Link, Not How Many Links, Influences Ranking</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft" alt="Google" src="http://www.google.com/images/google_sm.gif" border="0" />As you can see, the data is great information. The text people use to link to you is one of the most important factors -- often the most important factor -- for how you will rank in Google.</p>
<p>Let me repeat that. <em>The anchor text used to link to your pages often is the most important reason you'll rank well for particular words</em>.</p>
<p>And what about this site ? what is the most used phrases that link to this site ?</p>
<p>Unfortunately .. the most used phrases that goes to this site&nbsp;are only&nbsp;.. Reaper X, Reaper X ID, and Reaper X ID Reborn :( (<a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=reaper+x">test</a>) and that&rsquo;s why i ranked really well using that&nbsp;words but .. i'm sure no one are going to use that keywords when searching</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Copyright www.reaper-x.com | <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/03/16/sayonara-google-translation/" title="Sayonara .. Google Translation"><strong>Sayonara .. Google Translation</strong></a> by <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com" title="Reaper-X .:[ ID ]:. &#187; Search Engine"><strong>Reaper-X</strong></a></p><p><img class="alignleft" alt="Sayonara" src="http://www.reaper-x.com/images/blogs/sayonara.jpg" border="0" />It&rsquo;s been a while since the first time i used the Google translation service to automatically translate this blog into other language. But now .. after upgrading into Wordpress 2.1.3 RC-1 .. i find that the famous Global Translation plugin from <a href="http://www.nothing2hide.net/blog/wp-plugins/wordpress-global-translator-plugin/">Nothing2Hide</a>&nbsp;is no longer worked as it should because it always want to automatically translate the blog base url using the <a href="http://translate.google.com/">Google translation</a>&nbsp;tool</p>
<p>Other than that&nbsp;before upgrading into the Wordpress 2.1.3 the translation tool also did not work because it always gives me 403 forbidden error message from Google (yup .. google ban automatic use of their translation service via scripting, etc especially if you have lots of pages and are frequently accessed .. and Googlebot or other search engine bot access also counted)</p>
<p>But if you&rsquo;re sure that you do not have a lot of pages on your site, then you do not have to worry about your server ip address&nbsp;getting&nbsp;banned from the Google Translation service&nbsp;because of it</p>
<p>As a side note, i also used the <a href="http://services.google.com:8882/urlconsole/controller">Google Automatic URL removal</a> to remove the indexed translation page as soon as possible .. so there won&rsquo;t be any visitors getting lots of 404 error messages when they came from search engine (but so far there&rsquo;s no one came to this site from the translated address of this blog)</p>
<p>Now the only thing left for me is .. well .. fill the top bar previously used by the translation images into something else :D</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Copyright www.reaper-x.com | <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/03/14/okay-thats-it-im-leaving-adsense/" title="Okay, that&#8217;s it .. im leaving Adsense"><strong>Okay, that&#8217;s it .. im leaving Adsense</strong></a> by <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com" title="Reaper-X .:[ ID ]:. &#187; Search Engine"><strong>Reaper-X</strong></a></p><p>Sorry if the title misleading, but i had enough of seeing various forums talk about how they say that adsense is not working for them or they can only make small amount of money from using adsense and decided to switch into other advertising network or method</p>
<p>And&nbsp;not that because i love adsense to death, but simply those who think adsense sucks, does not really know what they&rsquo;re talking about. And so that&rsquo;s why i decided to write this (other than that, you might be interested on reading my previous post about <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/12/09/what-ive-learnt-from-google-adsense-so-far/">what i have learned from adsense</a>)</p>
<p>Why did i say that ? first of all .. if someone say adsense is not working as it should on their website should at least know how to count unique visitors for their site, if their site can only bring 100 &ndash; 300 unique visitors per day .. then you should try to improve your website traffic instead of complaining about adsense</p>
<p>What if they say, they get lots of clicks but&nbsp;those clicks only worth <em>$0.xx</em> or almost next to nothing&nbsp;? .. wow that&rsquo;s good if you can <strong>get high CTR</strong> on your site there&nbsp;are&nbsp;possibility :</p>
<ol>
<li>You&rsquo;re using <strong>bad niche</strong> on your website</li>
<li>Because the adsense bot couldnt find useful keywords on your page, they&nbsp;decided to&nbsp;display <strong>Public service ads&nbsp;(PSA)</strong> that does not give you&nbsp;money even&nbsp;if there&rsquo;s someone clicking on it</li>
</ol>
<p>And now what if your site is getting huge amount of visitors daily&nbsp;but making&nbsp;low click through rate&nbsp;? .. if this the case, then maybe you should play around with your adsense placement</p>
<p>So what&rsquo;s the conclusion from this post ? simple, if you really want to make sure adsense is best for your site. Keep on increasing your site visitors to more than 1000 unique per day and see how adsense is performing on your site. And if you <strong>get low CTR</strong> try playing around with the adsense placement and see the results after one month. If its still not working as it should, then you can switch into other advertising network</p>

<p>Here&rsquo;s what Vanessa Fox from Google said about this &ndash; <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/Google_Webmaster_Help-Indexing/browse_thread/thread/65545eb6bf5d5b80/#">link</a> :</p>
<p><em>Typically, web search results don't add value to users, and since our core goal is to provide the best search results possible, we generally exclude search results from our web search index. (Not all URLs that contains things like "/results" or "/search" are search results, of course.)</em></p>
<p>Other than that, <a href="http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/search-results-in-search-results/">Matt Cutts</a> also suggest you to use <em>robots.txt</em> to block search engine from indexing your search results, and here&rsquo;s what he&nbsp;said about this&nbsp;:</p>
<p><em>Use robots.txt to prevent crawling of search results pages or other auto-generated pages that don't add much value for users coming from search engines</em></p>
<p>And because of this issue, Google also&nbsp;updated their&nbsp;<a href="http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769">quality guidelines page</a></p>
<p><a href="http://searchengineland.com/070312-104201.php">Thanks to Danny Sullivan</a> for posting about this matter, because i&rsquo;ll never know about this issue if he&rsquo;s not posting it on his blog</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Copyright www.reaper-x.com | <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/03/11/between-using-subdomain-and-subdirectory/" title="Between using Subdomain and Subdirectory"><strong>Between using Subdomain and Subdirectory</strong></a> by <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com" title="Reaper-X .:[ ID ]:. &#187; Search Engine"><strong>Reaper-X</strong></a></p><p>Recently i&rsquo;ve seen various people asking at various webmasters forum out there, whether they should use a subdomain or subdirectory for their own site. And&nbsp;i asked myself, why they should be confused between choosing subdomain or subdirectory ? because&nbsp;like most of&nbsp;you&nbsp;already know&nbsp;that subdomain is just a subdirectory in your site. With the exception that search engine think that your subdomain is a separate site. And that means Google PR on your main domain and on your subdomain would be different</p>
<p>And to make things clear for you, here&rsquo;s an example from my site. If you type this on your browser address bar : <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/forums">http://www.reaper-x.com/forums</a>&nbsp;you&rsquo;ll get redirected automatically to <a href="http://forums.reaper-x.com">http://forums.reaper-x.com</a>. And as you can see from that example, basically my forums is located under subdirectory of this site, but because i prefer Google or anyother search engine to display it as <a href="http://forums.reaper-x.com">http://forums.reaper-x.com</a> i'm using&nbsp;a <em>permanent redirect using modrewrite</em> and if Google decided to give PR to my forums in the future, all PR goes automatically to the forums.reaper-x.com</p>
<p>But what if i'm using <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/forums">http://www.reaper-x.com/forums</a> instead of using subdomain ? of course the Google juice from this site are going to be passed easily because Google considered it&rsquo;s as a subdirectory, which means you do not have to wait longer to get pr into your new forums</p>
<p>Although that is&nbsp;depend on your point of view, if it&rsquo;s for me i prefer to use subdomain rather than using subdirectory because subdomain looks more professional to me and you can manage subdomain easily because everything inside that subdomain is considered to be in the root directory :) .. although it&rsquo;ll really take sometime before your new subdomain get the Google Juice .. but that&rsquo;s just&nbsp;my own opinion of&nbsp;course&nbsp;:)</p>
<p>As an addition, if you&rsquo;re interested on using modrewrite on your subdomain or add-on domain, you might take a look at my previous post about <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/10/11/explanation-about-addon-domain-and-using-modrewrite-on-it/">using modrewrite on addon domain / subdomain</a></p>

<p><img class="alignleft" alt="" src="http://faq.files.wordpress.com/2006/05/wp-2.0-button-small.gif" border="0" />As a side note, this should be done before you go submitting your site to various directories, doing some link exchange, or to various search engine itself to make sure they&rsquo;re not indexing your unfinished website :)</p>
<p><span id="more-429"></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Choose Whether you want to use WWW in your domain or not</strong></p>
<p>This is the most important thing to do, so this come first before anything else. This is done because having&nbsp;one canonical url version for all of your page will help you improve your search engine ranking</p>
<p>And here&rsquo;s what <a href="http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/seo-advice-url-canonicalization/"title="Google Employee" >Matt Cutts</a> said about this :</p>
<p><em>Q: What is a canonical url? Do you have to use such a weird word, anyway?<br />A: Sorry that it&rsquo;s a strange word; that&rsquo;s what we call it around Google. Canonicalization is the process of picking the best url when there are several choices, and it usually refers to home pages. For example, most people would consider these the same urls:</em></p>
<ol>
<li><em>www.example.com</em></li>
<li><em>example.com/</em></li>
<li><em>www.example.com/index.html</em></li>
<li><em>example.com/home.asp</em></li>
</ol>
<p><em>But technically all of these urls are different. A web server could return completely different content for all the urls above. When Google &ldquo;canonicalizes&rdquo; a url, we try to pick the url that seems like the best representative from that set.</em></p>
<p>And now how to use it on your blog ? Well .. you can read my previous article on <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/11/14/force-www-on-your-domain-url/"title="Force WWW on domain name" >how to force www on domain name</a>. And if you <em>don&rsquo;t like WWW</em> in front of your domain, with a slight modification you can also force the <em>non-www version</em> on all of your webpages</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re using add-on domain, you might take a look on my previous post on <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/10/11/explanation-about-addon-domain-and-using-modrewrite-on-it/"title="Configuring Add on domain" >how to configure add-on domain so it&rsquo;ll looks like a single domain</a> placed on a single server</p>
<p><strong>2. Control how Search Engine Robot visit your site</strong></p>
<p>The next step would be creating <em>robots.txt</em> file and placed / upload it to the root folder of your site. This is done to control how search engine crawling your page, so they do not index your <em>secret page</em></p>
<p><a href="https://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=40362&amp;query=robots.txt&amp;topic=&amp;type=">Read here</a> for more info about this or <a href="http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/exclusion-admin.html">here</a>. And if you need real world example about this, you can <a href="http://www.google.com/ie?q=%22robots.txt%22&amp;num=100">click here</a> (Google Results) for <em>robots.txt example</em> from various live sites</p>
<p>As a note, there are different opinion on whether you should let Google or other search engine bot to index your <em>/feed/</em> address,&nbsp;archives page, etc&nbsp;or not. Personally i&rsquo;ve tried them both and i&nbsp;don&rsquo;t find any differences (in traffic, because of Google putting my site into it is supplemental index) between blocking them or not</p>
<p>If you want to read more about this issue, you can read <a href="http://www.seobook.com/archives/002030.shtml">Aaron Wall</a> from Seobook post about this Google Supplemental Index Issue</p>
<p><strong>3. Change your Permalink Structure / Using Nice URL</strong></p>
<p>In order to change it, just go to <em>Options -&gt; Permalink</em> from your dashboard and choose the Date and Name Based Permalink. So your url will looks like this for an example :</p>
<ol>
<li>Default URL Structure : <em>http://www.example.com/?p=123</em></li>
<li>Optimized URL Structure : <em>http://www.example.com/category/post-name/</em></li>
</ol>
<p>If you need more information about Permalink Structure in Wordpress, you can read it from <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks">here</a></p>
<p><strong>4. Use unique title and meta description for each page</strong></p>
<p>I know that inserting each meta description to a custom field (as for title, im sure no one are using the same title every time)&nbsp;for every page is time consuming especially to those who&rsquo;s moving from the free wordpress.com blog</p>
<p>Fortunately there&rsquo;s one plugin for wordpress that can help you with this situation, and it&rsquo;s called Head META Description plugin by <a href="http://guff.szub.net/2005/09/01/head-meta-description/">Kaf Oseo</a>&nbsp;(if i'm not wrong, because i couldnt find&nbsp;his about page) :P which will automatically create Meta Description tag for your wordpress blog</p>
<p>And now the next step to do is optimize your blog post title by installing another plugin, and this one called Optimal Title created by Elasticdog&nbsp;that can be <a href="http://elasticdog.com/2004/09/optimal-title/">found here</a></p>
<p><strong>5. Create Sitemaps for your Wordpress Blog</strong></p>
<p>Creating sitemap is necessary especially if you want Search Engine to index your pages properly (deep linking). And in order to simplify creating sitemap for your site, you can use the Wordpress Sitemap Plugins which can be downloaded from <a href="http://www.arnebrachhold.de/2005/06/05/google-sitemaps-generator-v2-final">here</a></p>
<p>That&rsquo;s all about it, as an addition you might be interested on reading my previous post about <a href="http://www.reaper-x.com/2006/10/23/do-it-yourself-search-engine-optimization-seo-tips/">DIY SEO</a></p>

<p>I do not know the reason why the Google translation service reject request from this site, because previously it just works fine without problem .. but now ? i always get this message no matter which translation button i press .. and it shows the same message too eventhough i'm using proxy to connect to my host</p>
<p><strong>We're sorry...</strong></p>
<p><em>... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.</em></p>
<p><em>We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, if you suspect that your computer or network has been infected, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your systems are free of viruses and other spurious software.</em></p>
<p><em>We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google.</em></p>
<p>Now .. i'm sure that my site doenst distribute malicious file or something bad like that but how come this is happening on&nbsp;this domain but works on other&nbsp;site that use the same technique like this site too ? (as a side note, i&rsquo;ve already changed the user agent several times but still no luck)</p>
<p>I guess Google just does not like their translation tool being used on this domain :(</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong> : I found that Google only allow, several request made in 24 hours. So the only way to fix this is .. i have to wait for another 24 hours before Google allow me to use their translation service once again :(</p>
