Best Webmaster Forums

March 29th, 2009 at 12:25pm Under General

By: Alex De Mostafa

The Internet has a huge number of webmaster forums. Despite their presence, a very little number contain that “warm” sort of community spirit. Some are moderated to extents that are unbearable. Others contain hugely saturated marketplaces, which is excellent if you are looking to purchase something, but horrid to sell – as you will be competing with writers that work for less than a penny per word, or overly cheap rates for whatever service you may offer.

#1 – NetBuilders.org – Net Builders contains an undoubtedly warmer community spirit than any other forum that I have ever visited, with regular posters that will willingly help you, owned by Will Spencer, a very successful web empire owner who has earned $70,000 USD in one month, through ad networks (i.e. AdSense). Will Spencer is highly approachable, unlike many other big faces, and will not hesitate to answer any queries that you may have.

#2 – WickedFire.com – Wicked Fire, despite their adult-themed fetishes, is a surprisingly warm community – but they are known to stereotype people, and it is extremely hard work to develop a reasonable name and to live up to that standard. They are certainly not a good market to “sell information” (i.e. eBooks), but you will be graciously thanked if you (pretty simply) contribute it without asking anything in return.

#3 – Forums.DigitalPoint.com – Digital Point is hugely crowded, so much so that it is unclear who you should approach if you need help. The moderating crew has also been known to “do their job,” sometimes arguably unfairly. Personally, I do not participate at Digital Point, but I do occasionally find myself looking through their wildly crowded marketplace.

#4 – TalkFreelance.com – Talk Freelance is reasonably quiet, but of those that reside, most have talents that I would consider unwise to ignore (particularly graphic designers). If they cannot resolve any queries that you may have, I’m sure that they will happily point you to someone who will.

I’m not aiming to sell you to any of these well-populated, (mostly) high-quality forums, but I would highly suggest that if you are new to the “webmaster world” to join up and start getting involved. Allow me to stress that it is very important that you ask questions, if there is anything that you are unsure about. Someone else will likely be wondering the same thing.

Technical problems with google search

January 31st, 2009 at 05:59pm Under General

Google’s search service has been hit by technical problems, with users unable to access search results.

For a period on Saturday, all search results were flagged as potentially harmful, with users warned that the site “may harm your computer”.

Users who clicked on their preferred search result were advised to pick another one.

Google attributed the fault to human error and said most users were affected for about 40 minutes.

“What happened? Very simply, human error,” wrote Marissa Mayer, vice president, search products and user experience, on the Official Google Blog.

The internet search engine works with stopbadware.org to ascertain which sites install malicious software on people’s computers and merit a warning.

Stopbadware.org investigates consumer complaints to decide which sites are dangerous.

The list of malevolent sites is regularly updated and handed to Google.

When Google updated the list on Saturday, it mistakenly flagged all sites as potentially dangerous.

“We will carefully investigate this incident and put more robust file checks in place to prevent it from happening again,” Ms Mayer wrote

Signature Spam

December 21st, 2008 at 11:42am Under Members

I am sure many forum admins have seen the growing trend of members who just sign up on any forum to flash their signature. I admin ad/or mod several forums and this is a growing problem. They add little or no content, but their signature is visible. Often they only sign up and make a few posts and never to be seen again, just leaving their sig behind. What are you doing about it?

Gadget Forums

The utility of the gadget review sites and forums

It is an undeniable fact the various electronic gadgets have penetrated into present life in an unprecedented way. While people used to think of them as luxury and flamboyant staff a few decades back, the scenario has changed drastically. The gadgets are no longer restricted in the reels of a James bond movie or a sci-fi film. In fact, the arrival and massive growth of Internet and computer technology has paved the way for a lot of gadgets.

Gadgets have metamorphosed from fancy staff bought by the rich lot of the society to indispensable item needed by the common man. Even a few years back, a laptop was out of reach for the majority of the computer users in the world. But now it is quite commonplace to see a student owning a laptop. This is what happens when technology takes a giant leap towards the future.

Another trend that has been seen in many people is buying and searching for gadgets online. The hectic work schedule and career demands do not give people the time to go to stores for buying gadgets. The net is a place where they can obtain information on various types of gadgets and buy them and even make the payments. However, the online buyers should not get carried away by the advertisements of the gadget brands. They need to browse the Gadget Forums for getting useful information on the budgets that fulfill their needs the best.

While a gadget can have lots of feature, it may not be equally useful for people belonging to various segments of the society. For instance, a student who needs a laptop for studying may not need a multi core processor which is a necessity for a demanding business user. Similarly, a retired person requiring a cell phone for communicating with his relatives does not need a high end camera phone. The mobile review sites can help a person in selecting a cell phone that is suitable for his need.

People often end up buying various types of gadgets and spend a lot of money after them. A wise idea would be to buy gadgets that combine the functionality of two or more other gadgets. For example a person who is an audiophile and needs to carry a USB drive can choose a MP3 player with data storage. This is definitely better than buying a thumb drive and an mp3 player separately. It will serve both purpose and he will save money.

The online gadget review sites can give the members effective and handy tips for selecting the best gadgets. The members can also enrich their knowledge in gadgets from the veterans. They can also learn about the best and reliable e stores that sell various types of gadgets. If a person wants to know more about the utility of gadget reviews he can see the forum interweb.in.

Hotlinking Files

June 15th, 2008 at 01:17pm Under Forum Content

I’ve never been too fussed with people hotlinking occasional files of mine, but today I discovered that my bandwidth was nearing the monthly limit. I was like what? Can’t be!

So I went in and checked my stats and discovered that the bandwith had tripled to what it normally is. I then noticed 2,000 uniques from a unknown website. I went to the site and looked at the source to see what they were linking to. It was a music file!

My host told me that I could stop that by disabling hotlinking. Now seemed like a good time to disable all hotlinking, which is bandwidth theft!

This one will disable image hotlinking:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?forumgab.com/.*$ [NC]

RewriteRule \.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ - [F]

Insert your own domain there. Place this in an .htaccess file in the root section of your domain.

If you don’t have an .htaccess file already, you can easily create one my placing that code in a text file, save it as htaccess.txt, upload it and then change the name to .htaccess (no extension)

To disable music hotlinking, or any other file, just add the the file extension like so:
