Here's a quick update about my Johny challenge, my challenge post has been cached and I'm now on the 6th page, ranking 51st. As most of you have guessed, I'm writing this post just to raise the Johny keywords on my front page which should end up giving me a better ranking for Johny!

Some interesting facts:

Query / Rank / Total
Crazy Johny/2/338,000
SEO Johny/1/55,700
Crash Johny/5/131,00
Johny cars/1/233,000
Johny google/2/427,000


and here's an irrelative but interesting hit,

does vista/5/107,000,000 (yes out of 107 million heh)

My site is strong enough to get higly ranked on 2+ keywords, for example it's fairly easy for me to get first ranking for "King Johny" but yet very hard to hit just the keyword Johny...

No matter the results of this months challenge, my next months challenge would be the keywords "how to hack vista", heh that should get me a lot of script kiddies! fun o fun!

Now time to give a small tip, if you want to rank high in search engines, don't use images when you can replace them with text, keep in mind that google can't read what's written in images and therefore your page won't appear in search engines, if you're absolutely obliged to put an image, always add an ALT text which describes what the image is...

Today I have a new challenge, I want to be the first hit for the keyword Johny on Google, I write my name with one 'n' just to be different from all the other Johny's out there who write it double n. Therefore if my campaign is successful, this post should be the first result for Johny out of 3,790,000... Why will I want to be the first result for Johny ? Well, for one, this is an exercise to see if i can get the keyword i want, in this case Johny, and for two, well it's just cool hehe, and well it's 3:24 am and I'm dead bored, can't sleep and well drunk...

The Challenge
To be on the first page for the keyword Johny on Google.


Duration of exercise
Right now it's Sunday 20 May, 3:25am, I have until the last day of May.

Whyyyy! My google page rank went down from 4 to 3 a couple of weeks ago, the sad thing is that I was expecting it to go to 5 since I was getting linked more and more from other blogs... What I've learned from having a page rank 3 is that google doesn't update your google webmaster account often, my incoming links page hasn't been updated since I got the pr3 which is really annoying, neither has my top ranking keywords page, but the crawling is still the same... Sooo I've taken a totally different approach now, SEO is mainly trial and error i guess, you change things, if they work, you stick to them, if not you let them go...

To be honest I'm not very sad because another interesting thing happened with the page rank update, my internal pages now have rankings, my msn password tool page has a page rank of 4, others have 3, which I believe is a good thing, therefore i think my page rank got splitted amongst all my pages.

What I did wrong

I became a Text Link Ad affiliate (its not really a bad thing but my site was weak already), and started to sell links on my site (the ads are on the left bottom) these are direct links and well i'm sure they ruined my page rank, another thing i've done is added "Latest Posts" and "Popular" on the main page, which are also links but i'm not quite sure if those will hurt my page rank since they point to links on my site, same domain, but then again i'm not really sure...

I'm now looking forward for the next page rank update, I've heard Google does it every 3 months, I'm curious on what will happen this time since i've been linked by very high ranked pages (pr 6,7,8) and respected blogs by very generous people, one generous blog is OneMansBlog.com It's a very interesting blog, and the gentleman owning the blog (John Pozadzides aka The Man) rewards the top commenters with direct links! I would recommend my readers to take a look at his blog. Other than that, I started to put my link when commenting on blogs, I never did that before as I cared less and was usually to lazy to type hehe but being knocked down by my new pr, now I need all those incoming links =0)

For people who want to exchange links, email me at admin at dngloz com, I'm pretty confident this time that during the next update, my pr would hopefully reach pr5!


I also realised the design of the site is kind of childish, and therefore I will work on changing the whole platform, I'm currently using Joomla, which I realised is not very blogger friendly, it's more for a community website... Therefore expect a completely new design and platform since I'm thinking of installing WordPress, which is a lot more blogger friendly...

w00t, our first c# and PHP tutorial =0) I'm new to c# and .net alltogether and therefor I thought it would be a good idea to write about what i learn along with time, please feel free to comment if you find something wrong, or have any questions regarding the code...

Today I learned on how to upload a file using C# to a PHP server.

We'll call the PHP script "upload.php", this is what it should contain:

<?php

$uploaddir = 'upload/'; // Relative Upload Location of data file

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'])) {

$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['file']['name']);

echo "File ". $_FILES['file']['name'] ." uploaded successfully. ";

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {

echo "File is valid, and was successfully moved. ";

}

else

print_r($_FILES);

}

else {

echo "Upload Failed!!!";

print_r($_FILES);

}

?>

I couldn't stop laughing after reading the news so I thought I would share it with everyone else, the news is about the U.S. warnings over piracy to other countries (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6612685.stm). This is the segment that's killing me "In addition to Russia and China, the 10 countries placed on the priority watch list were Argentina, Chile, Egypt, India, Israel, Lebanon, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Venezuela." As a kid, I've always loved to play the game where you choose the odd one from a given list! Which country is the odd one in this list? It's actually very easy, they are ALL poor countries, EXCEPT Israel!

I always heard jokes about how stingy jews are, to be honest, I never believed them... but hehehe after reading this news, it changed my whoooooole perspective about them!

This has clarified soo many things to me!

Now I understand why the Israeli invasion on Lebanon during the summer of 2006 ended, it wasn't the fact that they felt guilt towards the thousands of children and innocent people they murdered, not because of international pressure, but it's because of the cost of their missiles, the cost of the fuel of their airplanes that the war ended! It all makes sense now!
