I'd like to register a .se domain. I'm having trouble finding a registrar that satisfies all of the following: (1) Supports .se registration (2) Accepts BitCoin as payment (3) Registrar's site and checkout mechanism is in English (4) Registrar is not under USA jurisdiction Does such a...

Consider a hypothetical gambling site that requires the Amazon Web Services infrastructure. It can't be hosted anywhere other than Amazon. The site must appear to be located in Sweden or United Arab Emirates. WebCare360 provides a viable Reverse Proxy solution to accomplish this. Web requests...

A web site I'm building lives on an Amazon server in San Francisco. I'd prefer that this new site not be traceable back to me or my other Amazon-hosted properties. Ideally I'd like for the DNS <A> record for my site's hostname to point to an IP address in Antarctica or Netherlands or some other...

The FAQ indicates that the number of back-links to one's site is positively correlated to search engine rank. But what if the back-link comes from a different site (and domain) that lives at the same IP address as the site I'm trying to optimize? Alternatively, what if it's a different IP...

Miluge: I was just referring to keeping the WHOIS registrant info private -- not the content of the site itself.

Thanks so much. This is good to know. Keeping the registrant information private is definitely preferable. I'm working my way through an article that describes 200 different criteria that Google uses in its ranking algorithm. I wish I could post a link to show you. Let's try this: It's the tiny...

Domain privacy via "Domains By Proxy" has been activated on several domains purchased via GoDaddy. Does shielding my registrant information in this manner negatively affect my search engine page rank? Some articles indicate yes. Others indicate no. I'd post links to the articles but this forum...

Thanks for the tips. I had never heard of DMOZ until your post. One thing that concerns me: I've been advised to use Domains By Proxy to obscure the fact that multiple domains are owned by the same entity. But the Wikipedia article for "Domains By Proxy" claims that using a domain proxy service...

Hey, thanks buddy. That's good info. I followed your advice and bought the privacy option for the domains (domains by proxy). I was hoping that hosting all the domains using the same IP (that of the Amazon load balancer) wouldn't be a problem but what you're saying makes sense. I'll set up a...

Hi. "Goober" is a placeholder I used for the purposes of this post. It's not my actual domain. For example, if my business were car parts, I'd be using CarPartsNetwork, CarPartsReviews, CarPartsOutlet. If GooberNetwork actually is a registered domain, it's not mine. It was just meant as an...

I'm looking for some insight into how to drive as much search engine traffic to my site as possible. I have the following domains: GooberNetwork, GooberReviews, GooberOutlet, etc. My goal is to drive as much traffic to GooberNetwork as possible. My limited research on SEO indicates that I want...

Hi bpmik, Thanks for the response. Yes, 14,000 queries is a lot. Perhaps I can find a way to reduce the total quantity. The reason the query count is so high is that I'm dealing with live prices than can become stale quickly. The way their site works, each security requires its own page hit...

I've written a C# application that retrieves financial information from a public site. It'll make an HTTP request once every three seconds, twelve hours per day. That's a total of 14,400 hits per day. Using a set of ten proxies from BuyProxies.org should give me the anonymity I'm looking for...
