| XSS for SEO and Site search script security update announcement Www.1-Script.Com 03:35:36 |
| | Hello everyone,
I would not post it here if this particular vulnerability of one of my scripts did not turn out to be such a PITA in terms of SEO. The actual announcement is below, but to give you a gist of the problem with XSS - if you accept GET CGI queries and show user input on the screen someone with ill intentions can craft a URI that will make your script inadvertently link to any bad neighborhood there is. After that the bad guy only needs to post a thousand or so of blog comments with this URI as his website address and voilla - your site's is linking to bad neighborhoods by a boatload and your ranking sink (stink? you get the idea). I have been battling with this on a large site for several months now and cannot tell you how frustrating and very expensive consequences of this XSS vulnerability can be.
So, if you happen to use 1-Search script of mine please do upgrade ASAP. If not - take a second look at your other scripts, especially those accepting GET queries because GET take a rather annoying XSS problem to the whole new search - engines related level.
Here's the announcement:
Mandatory Security Upgrade for 1-Search site search script from 1-script.com
1-Script.com would like to announce availability of new version 1.90 of 1-Search script which is a mandatory security upgrade. Please get your files along with installation and upgrade instructions here.
http://www.1-script.com/download.php
We encourage you to perform the upgrade as soon as possible.
All previous versions of 1-Search (1.80 and earlier) are affected.
The vulnerability may allow an attacker to submit specially crafted search string that will initiate a JavaScript code execution or show a non-sanctioned link to an inappropriate website which can have negative effect on your search engine positioning.
The new version is designed to filter the XSS JavaScript along with other HTML tags. Additionally it has GET query disabled thus eliminating the possibility for an attacker to expose any bad links on your sites by linking to them from other sites.

| Omit Meta Tag Keywords? Guest 18:23:59 |
| | Someone told me that meta tag keywords have fallen from favour and that it is better now to omit them.
He said that there has been so much abuse of keywords that searchengines are now starting to ignore them, and even to award negative ranking for their misuse.
He also said that omitting them forces the spiders to index the whole page.
Any truth to his claims?
I am certainly no expert - I am just trying to figure things out as I go along, so advice is appreciated. Thanks!

| Cypher - Natural Language to RDF/SeRQL for the Semantic Web Smonroe 18:03:00 |
| | Hi All,
I've recently released a program I'd like to share with those interested in building semantics and natural language processing into search engines implementations.
Cypher is one of the first software program available which generates the metadata representation of natural language input. Cypher produces RDF graph and SeRQL query representations of sentences, clauses, phrases and questions. The Cypher framework provides a set of robust definition languages, which can be used to extend and create grammars and lexicons. Cypher programming is fun to learn and easy to use, and the specifications are designed to allow a novice to quickly and easily build transcoders for processing highly complex sentences and phrases of any natural language, and to cover any vocabulary.
The free software and related documentation can be found at:
http://cypher.monrai.com
Enjoy, sherman

| Odd PR dispersion Gerhard Buergmann 14:03:53 |
| | At one of my sites - http://www.pointinger.com/ - the PR distribution is completely different to normal sites: The home page has PR 2, the next page in the main menu has PR 0 and all other pages of the main menu and of the sub menus have PR 4. Nearly all incoming links are pointing to the domain name. All pages are apporx. 5 month old, the domain exists for many years.
How is this possible?
Thanks, Gerhard

| Natural Ranking Questions Guest 07:00:18 |
| | I'm really new to this e-commerce thing. I don't understand anything about how to find good placement in the natural rankings. I have been told that my website www.thelittlereddoor.net is written badly and that my flash is useless and a problem. We are using GoogleAdwords just to be found at all, but I need to know specifically what it is that is wrong so that I can deal with it myself or specifically tell my web designer what is wrong. I am also now reading that I should have links leading to my site? What is that? How do I do it? Please help, I am pretty desperate at this point. Thanks

| Is this what's been gobbling up all my psters bandwidth? Big Bill 04:02:43 |
| | My posters site is down till tomorrow, exceeded bandwidth twice this month, first time I bought another gig and a few days later it was gone too so I thought I'd investigate before putting it back up again (it goes back up tomorrow automatically).
What's this, do you think?
pool-64-223-102-9.burl.east.verizon.net
because it wasn't there last month and this month it's made nearly 50% of the hits.
Google says hits are coming from Google Images, lots and lots of them. My Linkin Park posters are very popular, as are the japanese traditional art prints and the erotic photography prints.
However, in the keywords section of Analytics, it says that only a handful of times have pages been found on keywords. So, how are they found, then?
I installed a swicki, I should point out, so maybe that's it. Maybe that's where the traffic was coming from in some strange manner. I've now uninstalled it. We'll have to wait and see.

| SEO Chain Gangs - revised version 2.01b Canadafred 03:24:52 |
| | Allo' monde! .1 ... SEO chain gangs in mass production lines; "This unit forms keyphrase skeletons and that sector over there inserts chunks of meat. To the left is the fission and release chamber where the various skins are glued onto the web pages and then the seedlings are propelled into the SERPs to grow the little green line ... the little money pods all blush at the master's sudden attention and float away to distant fertile lands ... .2 I revised a list and wanted to open it up for scrutiny.
The seven most important factors I consider when developing and implemeting an SEO startegy:
1.0 Relevancy - stay focused but not pushy
2.0 Ethics - play fair, by the rules and have respect for competitors
3.0 Authoritativeness - having something uniquely significant to offer the Internet
4.0 Dynamicability - encouraging evolution
5.0 Credibility - supporting words both internally and externally
6.0 Importance - using natural language patterns to emphasize content
7.0 Accessibility - building optimized content for your visitors primarily (I will convert Els, slowly) .3 I just keep telling myself "I am a man and I can change" like Red Green used to suggest before his TV show got bumped off the air) see: http://www.redgreen.com/ .4 That's the end of the posting. The rest is just babbling. Please, everyone now get back to work. .5 Ok, in a little way, I am hoping my latest blog article will be enough to get nominated for the "2006 Obscure SEOs of Canada Distinguished Moose Tird Award". I have a picture of me with mine from last year, I'll post it up on my blog later if I can find it. .6 For those search optimizers that are extremely bored and are looking to plant new seeds in their minds and think that there may be an inkling of substance in my assorted nonsense. I hope I just cured your boredom blues. .7 Obscurity, I think, is an extreme of imagination wherein innovativeness sometimes festers. -- Fred - Jack jumped out of the penalty box http://canadian-web-site-promotion.blogspot.com/2006/07/seven-important-seo-factors.html

I am probobly using the wrong search terms.

| Information overload; addressing too much outdated information on the Internet. Noticedtrends 22:50:30 |
| | Difficulties in filtering search-engine results to yield up-to-date content.
Phrase to find "Internet trends" "July * 2006" (month, date, year) content posted within last three-months: (about 700 results)
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=m3&q=%22internet+trend%22+%22july+2006%22&as_qdr=m3&btnG=Search
To narrow-down search-results (much) further:
The words HE, SHE, ME are excluded (the 'without the words' feature in advanced search form). After all, content which can signal current trends usually doesn't contain HE, SHE, ME. Certain pronouns usually indicate personal accounts of individuals; rather than the "collective conscious" shaping current trends.
(Less than 50 results)
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=m3&q=%22internet+trend%22+%22july+2006%22+-he+-she+-me&as_qdr=m3&btnG=Search
Searches still need to be narrowed-down further; as most search results don't include current month.
Descriptions of results within search-results mostly include three bolded periods '...' which indicates two different parts of content; where the date searches are separate from the keyword searches; yielding outdated content.
Are there search-engine utilities to allow omission of search-results containing the three bolded periods '...'?

| Google not filtering duplicates - still Logician 12:52:54 |
| | Today I was looking for NDE (near death experiences) information, and as I searched Google I saw the SAME articles, I mean exactly the same, time and time again in the Google Top 10.
eg
http://science.krishna.org/Articles/2000/10/00189.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/986177.stm
This are just examples, but I saw the excessive duplication a lot all in Google's Top 10.
Clearly, Google is still not looking at content, but links to content - what a joke. Sometimes you have to scroll through 3 pages just to find something original.
Regarding news articles, probably a massive amount is just duplication - I mean exactly the same article just reprinted under different names. This is because news outlets uses AP.

| Google testing New AdWords image ad size? John A . 12:47:42 |
| | I just spotted a tiny l'il 110x90px image ad in one of the four Google ad spots on a web site out in the wild. Intrigued, I logged into my ads and tried creating a new image ad. No such size was being offered or shown on the image ad sample page.
I know for sure it's legit and not some overlay by the hosting page. I'll leave out the actual file name so they don't get hammered, but the image source was from http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/verticals/110/
Has anyone been approached to test this new size?
BTW - there was no text on the ad image at all. Just a silhouette, apparently of a native american, sitting in front of a sunset/rise.

I read somewhere that adding Google Adsense would get it on the search engine much faster, a couple days I thought I read, but it still isn't up.
