How time flies. I’ve been browsing the internet since the mid-90’s, but I’m hard-pressed to recall what search engine I used before Google came into existence back in 1998. Yahoo? Or maybe Altavista? Whatever it was, it’s now a distant memory.
They aren’t exaggerating when saying thousands of websites are affected. ZDNet provided an example of a Google search query that contained malicious javascript code. The results of this query are now over 9,000. These websites range from law firms to non-profit organizations. Some of the websites I checked still had this garbage code sprawled all over their home page.
I should’ve realized a long time ago the referral traffic that can be gained from Quora. They’ve had a firm grip on question-form search queries for years now. Specifically, questions that begin with do or does. It’s quite common to find a result from Quora on the first page of Google when used in that context. I believe that in order to succeed in obtaining Quora referral traffic, your answers need to be deep and informative. Since the links are no-follow you won’t get any SEO juice, but if you target questions that pertain to your business or niche, that becomes irrelevant.
I must’ve missed the August 3rd outage. I don’t recall it affecting me. I do remember the September 3rd outage that lasted roughly 90 minutes. Perhaps Facebook will go for the trifecta with an October 3rd blackout?
I must’ve received over 50 of these emails this week for the various websites I manage. Back in April, I reported getting my first notice for mobile-first indexing. I do find it strange that Google feels the need to inform webmasters of this via email. Why not just have it pop up in Google Search.
As popular as Duplicator is, I’ve never used yet on the dozens of websites I’ve migrated from or to my server over my career. I’ve had great success with both All-in-One WP Migration and Backup Guard for moving websites. They each offer a premium version, however, I’ve had no problems using the free options for either. At some point, I plan to purchase one of them with a developer license, since there is a little extra legwork required for importing databases into the new server.

Having a distrusted SSL certificate is much worse than having none at all. While Chrome displays a not secure message for websites still using HTTP, it will all but prevent visitors from viewing websites with broken SSL certificates. A red triangle with an exclamation is shown in the URL address bar and on a blank page with a stern warning. If your website is facing the issue it should be fixed immediately.
Wow.. This is insanity. Many online businesses are still adjusting to being compliant with GDPR. Now the EU drops this on everyone. According to article 11, this very post could be liable for damages as it contains a snippet. So any website that sources information from another (in the EU) could potentially have legal consequences. This goes against the very basics of journalism. I remember in grammar school we were taught to cite our sources, give credit to the author, and place direct information in quotes. Where is the harm in that?
cPanel’s Web Hosting Manager is one of the most robust server administrator applications for (the lack of a better term) managing websites. It’s become so popular that you’d be hard-pressed to find it in a non-acronym form (WHM) on the company’s website. EasyApache is perhaps the most recognizable module of WHM for its ability to make compiling Apache and PHP modules a breeze. In previous versions of EA, watching it build profiles through hundreds of lines of code gave me a sense of deep relief. I’m no expert in server administration and trying to learn all the proper Linux commands for compiling would take me ages!
