Sulumits Retsambew contest ended and we have good news. We are winners :) . We were in the lead from the first day of this search engine optimization contest.  I published my tactics and what I did here, so feel free to check it out. Also I released Sulumits Retsambew template so you can use it for one of future contest or you can check how the onpage seo is done.

That contest gave me few more jobs, and main one is to optimize Online Ordering site. Curently site is not ranked and goal is first page. This is generic domain so it will be hard to repeat success from the seo contest, but lets see what time will tell.

And Sulumits Retsambew again

I am becoming boring with this Sulumits Retsambew thingy.  But you must understand me that contest is coming to an end. There is maybe around 20 days until end of the Sulumits Retsambew seo contest and things are getting tight. My www.sulumitsretsambew.org is still on the top, from the begining, but people are becoming active and many changes are happening. That is the enough for me to start work more on the contest and try to defend my place against attacking opponents.

I am having troubles building links. Just stopped at 16k and no matter do I build them or not, they always stay on the same ammount. My main opponent now has them over 19k.

Interesting thing is my supporter Sulumits Retsambew entry at my old Opera blog. It getting higher and higher. From page 10 to position 29. From position 29 to 23, from 23 to 20 and finally from 20 to position 19 and second serp page. I am still thinking to help or not help that site with little bit of backlinks, or to spend that time to my official Sulumits Retsambew entry.

Anyway time is passing and I hope I will stay at the top.

Sulumits Retsambew SEO contest is nearly at the end. One more month and we will have winners who hardly worked last 5 months for their positions. Contest showed much information to the skilled eye. For example, Google showed his supremacy over the other search engines, by indexing biggest amount of pages and showing the most relevant results (by keeping the sulumits retsambew .org on the first position). It indexed nearly 2 million of pages. Very scary if you ask me. I am wondering how the contestant actually gained so much backlinks. This is proof that there is over 500 contestants which tried to optimize their entry and win nice price of 1000$.

Our Evil Science site stayed long time on second page for Sulumits Retsambew term, but competition ate us.

Now the main favorites for winning are Hellas, Sunita and Sony.

Battle  until the end.

Opera 10 Beta 1

opera 10 logo 400x220 Opera 10 Beta 1

I just removed my Opera 9.64 and installed Opera 10 Beta 1. New Opera even in Beta is stable enough for daily use, and I must admit it is pure evil. Its faster then ever. Facebook is working now smooth like a milk, javascript speed is faster more then 20 times. Few javascript intense pages now do not slow down Opera. Acid 3 test is hitting score 100/100. There is new skin but old skin are working flawless, so I just brought back old one Tango CL skin. One thing is not working for me. My userjs SEObar script. Hope I will manage it somehow. Obviously M2 client got upgraded too.

This new opera is introducing us two new great features. First one is Automatic Update. From now on, we will have always latest Opera automaticly. Second one is inline spell checker. This is something that most Opera users awaited eagerly. Now when I type any English text on any text box, Opera is checking my spelling. Great thing for non English speakers.

One another thing I just noticed is new function for tab bar. You can resize it. But when you resize over certain border, tabs becomes thumbnails of open webpages. Quite interesting effect :D

Love is in the air :D

Database guides and tutorials

database 150x150 Database guides and tutorialsIt looks time is come to start learning about databases. Since my number of sites is starting to grow, I am experiencing oftenly lack of knowledge about databases. I can create mysql databases, make import, export and backups. I can make simple queries from PHP, basically simple stuff, but I want to know more. Detailed information about them, differences, good and bad things between database types, how do they function and work. More details about database architectures, fixing broken databases and why databases even get broken. Currently, I found just a few worthy sites about databases, database guides is jumping to my eyes, so as wikipedia database articles. After finishing reading all their articles will start with some practical tutorials. Maybe I should buy some database bible book.
