http://www.hochmanconsultants.com/articles/sitelinks.shtml http://www.seopedia.org/internet-marketing-and-seo/google-sitelinks-the-ultimate-faq/ I mean this stuff. There's no way to control it directly; your site just has to be popular and searched enough, basically. But doing all this stuff let me find out what they were called, hehe.

Most of my sites and their primary subpages were already very indexed, so there was no real reason for me to do all that. Might be for good in the long run though. :D

Oh my. I did all this sitemap stuff to see if I could generate Google sitelinks for any of my sites (because they're just so cool, the little navigation links that appear below "major" pages in Google search results), but it seems there's no way to control whether or not you develop them. Aw.

Yeah, I haven't heard of a much better/cheaper domain name provider in my time.

Fun fact: when I got my first domain name, the person I was hosted with at the time immediately deleted all my stuff off her server - unaware that I had only bought a name, not another host or webspace.

That's when I came to Xepher. :P It probably wasn't a good idea to be hosted with her anyway, as she thought 26 megs was "too much" space for me to be using, and she did something like delete all my stuff without warning. I could have lost something that way if I weren't so meticulous about backing up my work.

And Xepher's hosting is wondrous.

I use GoDaddy. My only issue with them (besides their hella cluttered site design) is that I'd like to be able to renew my domains without the extra crap I put on the first time so I only pay $9 or whatever, but it doesn't seem to let me. $20/year for a domain name. No going back. Hrrrm.

My college was a design college, so all the graphic design machines were macs, and I had to buy one for my education. I'm really glad I did; I can check all the browser design issues on a mac now as well as a pc <3 but gawd it's expensive, and they released macbooks right after I got it. *facepalm* *powerbook g4*

Ohh, I see. The first time I error'd, I was using Cyberduck like I normally do on my mac. The last one I was in Filezilla, what I use on my PC.

I didn't want to download anything new, lol. Oh well.

I don't get the one button mice either, and I'm glad I never bought one. e___e

At college I always toted around my regular mouse and stuck it in macs when needed.

I don't think there's stat tracking here at Xepher, but I use Statcounter. :D It's especially nice since it increased its visit log from 100 to 500 for new counters... I actually deleted and recreated some of my old counters just for that. There's a lot of stuff you can track with it, a whole lot, except 404s. There's probably a way to do it with Statcounter, but I wouldn't know. I tend to find most of my broken links myself.

Whenever I check my forums (which is rarely these days :B) it's says "Update. NOW!!!" and so I update. I think it updated twice since August, lol.

I think I figured it out. I made sitemaps for all my sites and submitted 'em to Google, corrected errors on each of them and now I just wait for their urls to be indexed all nice-like. :D

Makes sense to go with the Google version, since Google seems to be at the top of everything. Glad what I went with worked. (I used a generator to get started. :B) I looked around and saw formats with a lot of different tags for the same thing, so I was confused at first.

Those xml/rss ROR things! I'm trying to get my head around them. I've been curious ever since briefly hearing about them years ago in a web class. (My last attempts to learn more fell short, and now I turn to you, O helpful forums!)

From what I've seen so far there are a few ways to do them, not all compatible with search engines. I'm just wondering which kind is. And then I can't seem to find a good example of how they actually work, or show up, or something. I thought I knew, but now I'm really not sure.

If it's how I think it is, then sitemaps are cool, and I wanted to do some for my silly little sites, hee.

Edit: Ohh, I found out some more things finally. It's a lot more involving than I initially thought. (I thought you'd upload a file and it'd be indexed just like that...shows what I knew.) Safe to say, I can see why most people don't do this. But for bored people like me...
