But the real reason for this post is to see how quickly this ranks.

Reminds me of the nigritude ultramarine comp from way back in the day.

I wonder what sort of simple spamming techniques can make a difference.

Some I would try are a4uexpo Bavarian Beer and Sausage on stand 50 and a4uexpo Bavarian Beer and Sausage on stand 50.

That looks dodgy, but hey ho. I would probably consider linking out to a4uexpo Bavarian Beer and Sausage on stand 50 , but not to one of the the muppets, like David Naylor.

I would be concerned about too much anchor text being bang on, but I am sure I can get over that.

So this is with no external links, only 12K competitors, but a few of those are heavy contendors for age equity and all that.

Right, back to wotk for me.

If like me and you have ever been a muppet and not updated loads of DNS’s and a server has moved then you need to quickly update a shed load load of IP’s on the woefully slow 123-reg then I have found a reasonable solution.

Once you have logged into the control panel of 123 reg and gone into the first domain you wish to change you will see the URL as something like:

https://www.123-reg.co.uk/secure/r.pl?d=secure_dns&domain=somedomain.co.uk

Well, instead of clicking back and forwards and using the drop down simply edit  the URL:

https://www.123-reg.co.uk/secure/r.pl?d=secure_dns&domain=someotherdomain.co.uk

Then just paste the new IP, wait for update then, edit the URL, much quicker.

I am sure this could be done with a script also, but alas this was the quickest way I could do it. I dont thinnk this would be as efficient with locked domains either.

PS I did try entering other peoples domains .  They have that one covered hehe

1. Lock down your wp-admin folder with htaccess
Create a new httaccess file in the /wp-admin/ folder and add the following lines

AuthUserFile /dev/null
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Access Control"
AuthType Basic
order deny,allow
deny from all
#IP address to Whitelist
#My IP
allow from xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
#Any Other IPs where I might need to get access from
allow from xx.xxx.xxx.xxx

2. Move the wp-config.php file up one directory
This makes it a little harder to get to, if you move it up high enough, impossible without FTP access. WordPress looks higher in the directory tree, so panic not.

3. Create Secret Tags from the API
Within the wp-config file add the secret tags from the wordpress API:

https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/

4. Create a new admin user with and unusual name and create a normal posting user (Editor)
When you delete the old admin user it will ask to assign the posts the new user, so again don’t panic that you will lose the posts. These wordpress folks are quite clever.

5. Set up robots.txt For /wp-*
Actually create a robots.txt file if you don’t have on and add the following lines to stop search engines indexing your pages, making a little harder for people to find your install files.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-*

6. Set up Askimet
This stops automated submissions from comment spammers, well not all of them, but quite a few. You will need an API key though.

I don’t post much but I thought I would write a little review for an iPhone game I bought recently.

If you’re a Physics Game Fan, a genre of game that’s proving hugely popular to the Casual gaming market on App Store, then there’s another game to add to the collection, Sogoplay’s Mani Golf. Featuring 36 weirdly original holes spread over two wackily themed courses, touch controls, beautiful graphics, retina support, as well as a comical Main Character, and an enjoyably challenging difficulty curve that will keep you coming back for more. Mani Golf ranks highly amongst the Physics favourites on App Store.

The unique thing about Mani Golf was always that it wasn’t a faithful Golf Game, more a fantastically addictive 2d platform game with a Golf theme. To take your shot, you now have touch screen pull back, to choose your power and direction, and it comes very naturally. You can also make use of your accelerometer, by tilting the phone to adjust the shot in the air or roll it along the ground, which is a fantastic feature, as there’s many a gamer who tilts their controller/phone whilst playing, the beauty here is, it works!

Once you’ve picked your way through the courses, Mani Golf keeps you coming back for more, with the hole achievements, it becomes hard to resist replaying to achieve an Albatross on every hole, and with the implementation of Game Center Leaderboards and Achievements, there’s further incentive to shave yet more shots and time off your score.

The Main Character Gaylord Mulligan, a hapless Terry Thomas type Cad, endlessly witters his way through the game, several of his catchphrases genuinely achieved a couple of laugh out loud moments. However if you grow sick of Gaylord, and well you might, you have the option of turning him off, but keeping the music on. The Developer has also announced that in the Next update, there will be a ‘Gag Gaylord’ option, thank god.
All in all, This is a Fantastic Game!

Enjoyable, Challenging, Funny, its got the lot, if you like Angry Birds, you’ll love this.

You don’t actually have to post it, but it does allow you to walk to the front of the queue and not register

Just in case it disappears as I am sure it will sreenshot below:

There were 117 comments made from lots of different people that First Search Consultancy did not like as many were unfavourable.

First Search Consultancy had their legal representatives contact my host and as such the posts and comments have been removed.

There are other locations where reviews can be seen of First Search Consultancy who still have content up so get searching if you want to find out more.

If I had the time and inclination I would fight the problem, but for now I simply have other stuff to do that is more important.

cheers

Added // I have had to close comments on this one also as several comments, the type FSC don’t seem to like have been added. Sorry.

Here is one of many examples:

The main reason why they are retarded is that they can’t even write the spider to insert the name of the website they are posting the form too. So I would have to write back with my “mandatory” website address.

Words fail me!

I have blanked out the errors to protect the stupid (and me getting in the poo )

Just to give you an idea I don’t live in Scot Coldfield (Remember I bought from them so they know where I live) and my name is Not Mr Raza, nor that of my other half.

The moral of the story is, if you are going to spend lots of hard earned on a direct marketing campaign then at least check it. This one I got looked like it was penned by someone with a very bad grasp of English, littered with errors which makes me think the company must have the same lack of attention to detail.
