Static sites also have the benefit that you can host them just about anywhere for peanuts, for example you can use <random cloud provider> storage product. Hosting a static website on an Amazon S3 bucket costs you a couple of cents per year and is literally bomb proof. BuiltWith Trends is...

Just tried this out of curiosity and it appears to work, you will need the Python language installed and follow the Selenium documentation. Randomly switches proxies from the list you give it Goes direct to a video watch page Plays the video for 30-50 seconds Sleeps for 10-100 seconds before...

What exactly do you need? a bot/script that watches your YouTube videos for 30 seconds to cause the Views counter to go up? This is a 10 minute job to write using Browser Automation software like Selenium (free/open source). I use it for a similar purpose where it emulates Firefox / Chrome /...

From what I have seen, Frank Kern, Ryan Deiss etc. make 99% of their income from selling their information products to people dumb enough to buy them -- not actually from the methods they're preaching about. :cool: Well-targeted paid traffic will almost always beat anything you can hope to...

I use Cloudflare and love the service, however think about what Google sees all across other backlink profiles .. It will look something like this http://trends.builtwith.com/ns where 30% of the backlinking domains are probably on Godaddy, and only 0.32% are on Cloudflare. Now if I were a...

Hey, yes to build on my earlier answer obviously Googlebots can recognise languages - even more so if you declare the language used in the markup: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_language_codes.asp As for an absolute measure of "whats best?", it is hard to tell without deconstructing how...

I've only tried this with Tumblr but have great results already, generate a list of 100+ niche relevant keywords and scrape for "site:tumblr.com <keyword>", prune the links back to just the domain and filter for the ones which 404 Not Found. You can expect to find about 0.1% of your scraped...

Lots of these Ads lead to "free downloads" where they use a .exe installer to give you the "free" item and also installs spamware. The site owner is being paid per install.

I developed a site last year which started with 600,000 pages full of content and media. I generated a multi-part sitemap with 50,000 pages per XML file and submitted it in Webmasters Tools. Took Google about three weeks but it crawled everything eventually.

I'm using WordAI (Turing) via the API to spin hundreds of articles, I thoroughly recommend it. Easiest way around the Paypal thing is to get a Virtual Credit Card with $5 on it and link it to your Paypal account.
