Does Google PR include url shorterners?

Seems like they are very popular with Twitter, so does Google crawl it as bit.ly/ or does it actually give the points to the actual stie?

depends if they work as an SEO friendly redirect

if the site does a 301 or.. an seo friendly redirect.. yeah.

Anyone use SEO Book’s rank checking tool?

Is it worth the download?

Iv’e used it, its alright, not great. The best program I have found is a program called Rank Tracker. If your willing to spend the money on one its the best.

get the ultimate toolbar from seobook

that comes with it.

rank checker works good but u have to keep entering data dont feel like importing the files to check rank

works kinda slow too

Started a delivery business, great then..

Well out of spite, I started a business because my parents claimed I was a failure. Well, I used around $50K and it’s been up and running for about a month. So far, revenue has only paid itself off. So, after paying investors their share, Im losing money. Our delivery service in Miami has been getting great reviews, people use us all the time. We have ten drivers though on call, and paid hourly plus commission. So overhead is pretty high for just a website. IDK give me ur input.

verisign’s going to start publishing nxd data

I know a few here dabble in the domain business, it won’t effect most but could be a game changer for some.

nxd = non existent domain

In a nut shell, it will allow subscribers to see a list of the most popular ‘hits’ of non existent domains on the global root servers.

This goes live Oct 7th

if you think you’ll have a chance to get anything viable you are smoking crack. I can guarantee you that the second that list goes live, all the top domains will be taken by bots from the domain parking companies.

Guestbook CGI

I’ve got a 3rd party CGI Guestbook script from here:

cPanel says I need to put it here:
/usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/

I tried getting to the above through filezilla, and it says it doesn’t exist…

So, I instead put it in cPanel’s cgi-bin here:
/public_html/cgi-bin

and updated the code to do so, but alas:

Halp?

Need to get to my current dead end job so I’ll post any code later if needed.
