				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was Reading A great <a href="http://www.loganthompson.me/affiliate-traffic/google-slaps-affiliate-landing-pages/comment-page/#comment-5803">article</a> the Other Day about the Great Google Slap LATE 2009</p>
<p><strong>Quote  [</strong> Like many affiliates in the past few weeks, I got the<a href="http://billbailey.co.nz"> Google slap</a> on a few of my top running PPC campaigns which felt like getting my faced kicked repeatedly from Chuck Norris wearing a football cleat. Being a bit upset over losing a big part of my income I had to step back and look at things differently than I have lately  <strong>]</strong></p>
<p>I would call mine Depression.</p>
<p>Still NOT over it I lost a $300 to 500 $ a day campaign (its still not back for me) Google have filtered my whole site in fact I had 2 sites that Just Dropped off the world,10 articles per site, Privacy disclosure, contact, Incoming Blog posts out going links to top site s in the niche, SEO Bomb proof still get Q S 1?</p>
<p>I have lost 2 accounts with Google and I don&#8217;t want to lose another.</p>
<p>I could Go On I have lots to say and Have learn t heaps In short this is the main Problem Its not the content although Google expect to see certain things, its where your site is pointing to (think about it if 1000 affiliates are pointing to the same weight loss Sales Page) Google Basically Is saying that its spamming their network and in the Long run they are right.</p>
<p>So you need to Take a name and email and work them from a list or go article marketing which can stack up $$$ for you and it takes time, There are no easy solutions at the Moment.</p>
<p>I think I have a slap proof site Now but its harder to get the sales as you have to be 1-2 Page&#8217;s further from the sales page.</p>
<p>My split testing says that the Hop Rate (amount of people that actually make it thru to the sales page on the vendor site ) drops from 50% down to 25% and so do you sales which is the difference between profit and loss.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t Give in Its gotten easier in terms of competition as there is less its a matter of finding a way back in I am running a campaign on Google at the moment and getting 300 + ad clicks a day at and average cost of 6 US cents a click.</p>
<p>So there is traffic on the Google network for your site Just make sure you have a testing account or two Google also don&#8217;t seem to track credit cards So don&#8217;t be paranoid about setting multiple accounts up off the the one credit Card.</p>
<p>Oh by the Way Google has the Best Buying traffic End of story</p>
<p>So Don&#8217;t Give Up</p>
<p>Regards Bill Bailey</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: left;">Step by step installation Guide for Multi DB</h2>
<h3><span style="font-size: large;">Introduction</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">When I first read about Multi DB I was lured by the fact that it could streamline and break my 10,000 Table Single wp-freeblog Database into many such as 16, 256, 4096, databases, &#8220;yeah I thought, Millions of Blogs!&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Whooa down, lets get real you need to be realistic about where you will be in the Future I personally think 256 Databases is a good starting Place lets face it if you get that many you will probably be making some OK money or at least be Making enough to keep developing your Platform Ok pic a number</p>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>16 Databases Up to 10,000 BLOGS</li>
<li>256 Databases Up to 50,000 to 100,000 Blogs</li>
<li>4096 Database Up to 4,000,000 Blogs</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 1</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">The first thing to do is try to create your databases now this is either Straight Forward or not depending on your server restrictions, if there are restrictions then you will possibly need to change hosts or get the server Folk to CREATE the databases and GRANT PRIVILEGES to your account for these Databases</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">How I Create Databases thru the Command Line. (Building This now)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Go Now and Create your Databases done then Come Back here when you have got this sorted, As we cannot move on untill its done.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-90"></span></p>
<p>[ad#post-ad]</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 2</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Get the latest Multi DB Plugin  <a title="Multi Dtabase" href="http://premium.wpmudev.org/" target="_blank">HERE</a> and Unpack it on your own Local Machine</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is what should be inside  see the contents of this Folder minus the Zip folder,  the install notes here will only help you  put the files and Folders in the right directories which is a little dangerous Initially,  I actually Broke My site by uploading the Wrong file out of sequence so listen up</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Below is the contents of the Multi DB Plugin</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/multi_db_software.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-87 alignnone" title="multi_db_software" alt="" src="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/multi_db_software-300x224.gif" width="300" height="224" /></a></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 3</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">OK  So you Now have your down Load  its unzipped on your local machine we are cranking</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Now you need to take it easy here no rush load these files into  the appropriate folders</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Firstly create a folder Called <strong> wp-content/scripts/ </strong>then load the following files</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong></strong><strong>list-hashes.php</strong> &#8211; goes in /wp-content/scripts/<br />
<strong>move-blogs.php</strong> &#8211; goes in /wp-content/scripts/</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Add these files into these directories</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>db.php </strong>- goes in   /wp-content<br />
<strong>db-config.php</strong> &#8211; goes in /wp-content/</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Make sure that you do not FTP upload these yet, we need to groom them first!</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 4</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Ok lets establish<strong> </strong>which files need be edited</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">You do not need to edit the files below</span><br />
</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>db.php</strong></li>
<li><strong> list-hashes</strong></li>
<li><strong> server-ip.php</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The files you will need to edit</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>move-blogs.php</strong></li>
<li><strong>db-config.php</strong></li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 5</span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Lets Get editing this is the area we need to take care saves a lot of time</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong> move-blogs.php</strong> &#8211; which sits in <strong>/wp-content/scripts/move-blogs.php</strong></li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: left;">The only parts you will need to edit of  <strong>move-blogs.php</strong> are below</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">$dbname ( <strong>your_current _database</strong> )<br />
$blog_table_prefix ( <strong>wp_</strong> %99 chance this wont need changing )<br />
$newdb_prefix ( <strong>mynewprefix_</strong> this is the prefix to your new 16, 256, 4096 databases )</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Then you need to change the database connection details such as below</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">$dbhost = &#8216;<strong>localhost</strong>&#8216;;     this is probably fine no need to change<br />
$dbuname = &#8216;<strong>username</strong>&#8216;;  this is your Business<br />
$dbpass = &#8216;<strong>password</strong>&#8216;;  this is your Business</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">$db_scaling = &#8216;<strong>256</strong>&#8216;; this is where you put the amount of Databases</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Here is part of the <strong>move-blogs.php file</strong></p>

<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 6</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>We have to edit and  correct</strong> the <strong>move-blogs.php</strong> (which will throw you if your not ready)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Note**  there is a typo in this file which still hasn&#8217;t been corrected YET its to do with<strong> line 83</strong> and <strong>line 85 </strong>instead of a<strong> hyphen -</strong> there is an <strong>underscore  _  between move-blogs.php<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is the original part  of<strong> move-blogs.php</strong><strong> </strong>file that is incorrect</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">OK you done yet does your <a title="Multi DB Configuration File" href="http://freeblog.co.nz/images/db-config.txt " target="_blank">Multi DB Configuratrion</a> look like this great lets get to the exciting bit, I bet there is a little bit of paranoia  in the back of your mind follow it and double check!</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 8</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">So here we are standing at the Abyss ready to take the Plunge Ok lets do it&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>FTP move-blogs.php into wp-content/scripts/move-blogs.php</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">then Open a browser and navigate to www.yoursite.com/wp-content/scripts/move-blogs.php</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">you should see this Image below.</p>
<div id="attachment_94" style="width: 310px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><a href="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/multi-db_move-blogs-start-screen.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-94" title="multi-db_move-blogs-start-screen" alt="Your Start Screen for Moving Blogs into Multi Databases" src="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/multi-db_move-blogs-start-screen-300x225.gif" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Your Start Screen for Moving Blogs into Multi Databases</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">OK no time for hesitation go to step 4 which says..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>4.</strong> To start the Copy process <a title="This is where you would click on tne Move Blogs screen" href="http://#">click here</a> this is Just a dummy link on this site for your benefit</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Ok sit Back its going to take a wee while depending on the size of your database and you will see some error output but do not Panic its Part of the process</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">see image below</p>
<div id="attachment_89" style="width: 310px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><a href="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/expected_errors_multidatabase_conversion.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-89" title="expected_errors_multidatabase_conversion" alt="Expected output errors during Move process" src="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/expected_errors_multidatabase_conversion-300x249.gif" width="300" height="249" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Expected output errors during Move process</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">after process is completed refresh your Browser and you should see this BELOW</p>
<div id="attachment_88" style="width: 310px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><a href="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/completed_multi_database_conversion.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-88" title="completed_multi_database_conversion" alt="Blog move into Multi Databases complete" src="http://www.billbailey.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/completed_multi_database_conversion-300x225.gif" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Blog move into Multi Databases complete</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">Go get your self a drink and feel happy with yourself you just moved all of your blogs in to  256 Databases (or how ever many you where going for)sit back and revel for a second you did good</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Oh and thank you Andrew for you great script</strong></p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Step 9</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Ok Now is when you put or FTP the rest of your files across</p>
<p><strong>db.php </strong>- goes in   /wp-content<br />
<strong>db-config.php</strong> &#8211; goes in /wp-content/</p>
<p>these files will take over from your DB CONFIG FILES by default you do not need to change any thing in wp-config.php</p>
<p>Well actually I did just to prove that I was using the new Multi database setup  by commenting out the second line defining the Database name //define(&#8216;DB_NAME&#8217;, &#8216;myold_singledatabase&#8217;);</p>
<p><code>define('WP_CACHE', true); //Added by WP-Cache Manager<br />
<strong>//define('DB_NAME', 'myold_singledatabase');    I commented this line out</strong><br />
define('DB_USER', '<strong>username</strong>');     // Your MySQL username<br />
define('DB_PASSWORD', '<strong>Password</strong>'); // ...and password<br />
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');    // 99% chance you won't need to change this value<br />
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');<br />
define('DB_COLLATE', '');<br />
define('VHOST', 'yes');<br />
$base = '/';</code></p>
<p>Also there is one other part in this config which you just leave alone I&#8217;ve seen a few people get hung up on it so don&#8217;t!</p>
<p><code>define( "WP_USE_MULTIPLE_DB", false );  no need to touch this at all</code></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p>Now also Something else is how the hell do you find where blogs are in 256 Databases easy</p>
<p>First thing is to get the Blog Id and enter it<a title="MD5 Hash tool" href="http://calc.wpmudev.org/md5.php" target="_blank"> here</a> using this MD5 Hash tool say if i put  blog id  2 into the submit box  the result is this</p>
<p><strong>c81e728d9d4c2f636f067f89cc14862c</strong> The relevant parts of this result are the first 2 or three Numbers</p>
<p>Now go to database <strong>c8</strong> and I bet your blog Id 2 tables are there, Magic aye and much faster then tryng to skim 10000 tables</p>
<p>So good Luck if you dont uderstand this or follow it Im sorry let me know where the problem is and I try to clarify it</p>
<p>Regards Bill Bailey</p>

<p>.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><img alt="" src="http://www.wikipedia-watch.org/gifs/hmind4.gif" width="96" height="105" align="left" hspace="10" vspace="8" /></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This <a title="Wikipedia Watch " href="http://www.wikipedia-watch.org/">site</a> examines the phenomenon of Wikipedia. We are interested in them because they have a massive, unearned influence on what passes for reliable information. Search engines rank their pages near the top. While Wikipedia itself does not run ads, they are the most-scraped site on the web. Scrapers need content — any content will do — in order to carry ads from Google and other advertisers. This entire effect is turning Wikipedia into a generator of spam. It is primarily Google&#8217;s fault, since Wikipedia might find it difficult to address the issue of scraping even if they wanted to. Google doesn&#8217;t care<strong>;</strong> their ad money comes right off the top. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Another problem is that most of the administrators at Wikipedia prefer to exercise their police functions anonymously. The process itself is open, but the identities of the administrators are usually cloaked behind a username and a Gmail address. (Gmail does not show an originating IP address in the email headers, which means that you cannot geolocate the originator, or even know whether one administrator is really a different person than another administrator.) If an admin has a political or personal agenda, he can do a fair amount of damage with the special editing tools available to him. The victim may not even find out that this is happening until it&#8217;s too late. From Wikipedia, the material is spread like a virus by search engines and other scrapers, and the damage is amplified by orders of magnitude. There is no recourse for the victim, and no one can be held accountable. Once it&#8217;s all over the web, no one has the power to put it back into the bottle.</span></p>

<a title="Plagiarism by Wikipedia editors" href="http://www.wikipedia-watch.org/psamples.html"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong><span style="font-size: x-large; color: #c00000;">Plagiarism by Wikipedia editors</span></strong></span></a></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong><span style="font-size: x-small;">by Daniel Brandt</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Here are the results of the first study of plagiarism in Wikipedia that has ever been undertaken. I started with a list of 16,750 Wikipedia articles. They came from a partial list of Wikipedia biographies of persons born before 1890. There was no reason for this, other than the fact that the list was available and the size was manageable.</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
The next task was to download the XML version of each Wikipedia article and try to extract between one and five clean sentences. They have to be clean (i.e., &#8220;de-wikified&#8221;) or there is no hope of using them in a search engine. That&#8217;s because the entire sentence is searched inside of quotation marks. Each search looks like this: </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #c00000;">-wikipedia -wiki &#8220;this is a complete sentence from an article&#8221;</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When the sentence is inside of quotation marks, any little variation inside the sentence can mean the difference between a hit or no-hit. The cleaner the sentence, the better. The reason for the exclusion terms in front is that I don&#8217;t want mirrors of Wikipedia. I&#8217;m looking for plagiarism that goes the other direction — in other words, for articles that existed prior to the Wikipedia article. <a title="Wikipedia Watch " href="http://www.wikipedia-watch.org/psamples.html">Wikipedia Watch</a></span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>WAMP5 is an installer for Windows</h2>
<p>It installs a complete Server (WAMP) solution on your Windows computer.</p>
<p><strong>WAMP Stands  for :</strong></p>
<p><strong>Windows &#8211; Apache &#8211; MySQL- PHP5</strong></p>
<p>WAMP5 automatically configures them to work together, wherever you install them on your local drive.<br />
These softwares are installed :</p>
<p>Apache 1.3.x.<br />
PHP 5.x.x<br />
MySQL 4.x.x<br />
PHPmyadmin<br />
SQLitemanager<br />
Wampserver service manager<br />
WAMP5 comes with a service manager as an icon tray. This manager will allow you to fully control your server and local projects.</p>
<p>WAMP5 is not designed for production but as a development environment. With WAMP5, you will be able to create you scripts locally on your computer, test them and then upload them on your production server.</p>
<p>The Wamp team  have configured Apache and MySQL servers with default configuration files to have the most standard platform. You can then adapt it to your personal needs.</p>
<p>During the Wamp installation,  a <strong>www </strong>directory is created in WAMP5&#8242;s directory. Just put your script files (php files) in this directory and access your localhost threw an Internet Windows or the service manager (icon tray).</p>
<h3>How to install</h3>
<p><span id="more-12"></span><br />
[ad#post-ad]</p>
<p><strong>Download the latest release of WAMP5 on one of the following sites : </strong></p>
<p>http://www.wampserver.com  (French Website)<br />
http://www.en.wampserver.com  (English Website)</p>
<p><strong>Double-click on the file to start installing.</strong></p>
<p>WAMP5 will ask you where to install. You can install wherever you want, WAMP5 builds configuration files to reflect your choice. But don&#8217;t forget that some scripts and modules don&#8217;t like long names and special characters like spaces. We recommend you to leave default directory c:\wamp</p>
<p>WAMP5 will then ask you if want to install the option &#8220;Auto Start&#8221;.<br />
If you check this option, services will be installed as automatic and a link to the service manager will be copied to your startup menu.<br />
Otherwise, services will be installed as manual and will start and stop with the service manager</p>
<p>After installation, you can directly start using your server. You should first change MySQL&#8217;s root default password. You can do it threw PHPmyadmin. Please read PHPmyadmin&#8217;s documentation for more information.</p>
<h3>How to upgrade</h3>
<p>WAMP5 is now build to upgrade directly without loosing your data (since WAMP 1.0).</p>
<p>All you need to do is download the new version, shut down your local server and install this new version. It will automatically detect if you have existing scripts or databases (this will only work if you haven&#8217;t moved the /www and /data directories).</p>
<p>Your configuration files won&#8217;t be overwritten, just modified to fit changes of versions.</p>
<h3>Installed services</h3>
<p>When you install WAMP5, two services are installed on your computer :</p>
<p>wampapache (Apache service)<br />
wampmysqld (MySQL service)</p>
<p>If you choose the &#8216;Auto Start&#8217; option, those two services will be installed as automatic. This means that they will launch automatically on startup. This is interesting if you want you server to always be available. The service manager will also launch on startup. If you need to stop your server, you can do it threw the service manager or, even simpler, just close the manager, services will automatically stop.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t choose th &#8216;Auto Start&#8217; option, services will be installed as manual. This means that they will only run when you start them. This is interesting if you want your server to be available only when you need it. To start your server, just launch the service manager, services will be automatically started. To stop your server, close the manager, services will automatically stop.</p>
<p>You can also disable one of the services if you don&#8217;t need it. For example, if you don&#8217;t need MySQL, just choose &#8216;remove service&#8217; threw the service manager. The service will then be stopped and removed. The manager will then only manage the apache service. If you need MySQL again, just choose &#8216;install service&#8217; threw the manager and start MySQL.</p>
<h3>Configuration files</h3>
<p><strong>Apache, PHP5 and MySQL all have a configuration files. Here are the location of these files : </strong></p>
<p>apache<br />
install_dir\apache\conf\httpd.conf</p>
<p>PHP<br />
install_dir\apache\php.ini</p>
<p>MySQL<br />
c:\windows\mywamp.ini</p>
<p>You can access these three files threw the service manager. Theses files are unique to WAMP5 so you can have other servers than WAMP5 installed in the same time.</p>
<h3>using WAMP5</h3>
<p>Well using WAMP5 is very easy. Just launch WAMP5 and start coding!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 class="expander-odd expander-open" id="whatsnew">Fire fox three</h1>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t upgraded all ready then do so as its much improved mostly in security features,  &#8220;Although on one of my sites , I noted the CSS  ( example site  <a title="Nutritional information" href="http://www.calories.co.nz">www.calories.co.nz</a>) was adding an undesirable home page  display issue so, weather its my coding? or we may have just  forfeited some of the relaxed nature of Firefox itself. Fire fox taking us forward, every one who uses it is helping make it sooo much better so come on I noted that on the new release they where clocking 14ooo downloads a minute! try to get your head around that!</p>
<h2> Browser of Choice</h2>
<p>This Browser has been the web Developers choice and is easy to see why!</p>
<p>Open source is on the charge and will soon be the new way of Web 2, &#8220;Good by Windows&#8221;.</p>

<p>I think this Browser will continue aid Web developers In a way no other Browser Can or will by being free and easy<br />
