    Please have look on my site

    Re: Please have look on my site

    Why do you have a page that requires your to "Enter Site"?? You would be much better off re-naming your "Home" page as "index" and publishing it as the site's default page as it is supposed to be.

    This "portal" page will confuse the Search Engines and result in lower (if not none at all) values being attributed to your site, if not risking penalization. The 'index' page is supposed to be the most important page of the entire site, just as the Index is for a book, giving a snapshot of all the relevancy that is contained therein, with introductory and special Content on it to make the impact on Visitors and Search Engines alike.

    Otherwise, the site is coming along quite nice ... with some final tweaking on layout and Content development, it looks like you are headed in the right direction.

    Just fix the 'index' page issue by removing the "portal" page ....

      OK, I followed your advice. I didn't think about search engines.
      Can you tell me why (with IE-8 when I click on the button "see example" (http://www.thecementgrindingoffice.com/volumeload.html), the pop-up window doesn't show anything and with Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera, it works normally?
      Thank you,

        Different browsers render (display) pages differently, and this page has a "heavy" script on it which requires a little longer load time, so .... maybe IE has difficulty loading it as fast as you think it should or as cleanly as your connection should allow?


        When attempting to visit your site, by default the "index" page should be the first page that is seen, and yet you still have the "portal" page as your "index" page .....

        For example, you should be directly taken to your Index page by following this link: http://www.thecementgrindingoffice.com but instead we arrive at the Portal page which you have simply TITLED (not Saved As and re-published as) "index" ....
        And if you follow this link, you do not go to what used to be called http://www.thecementgrindingoffice.com/home.html either ... because you did not republish it as index, only removed it!

        FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

        1. In BlueVoda, open the page you once called "Home"
        2. Double-click on the Menu "Home" button and change the link to www.thecementgrindingoffice.com and nothing else.
        3. Using the Toolbar Commands, FILE > SAVE PAGE AS and then type in "index" over the "home" that is there, and SAVE the page, approving that you are replacing the index page already saved in the folder.
        4. Publish the page.
        5. Open every other page and change the Menu "Home" button link to www.thecementgrindingoffice.com just like you did for your new index page.
        6. SAVE each page after making changes.
        7. Publish each changed page.

            Using BlueFTP, manually delete from the server the portal page which is still saved, named, and published as 'index' so it does not conflict with the "new" 'index' page ... if you cannot tell which is which, delete them both and simply re-publish the new, correct index page again.

              Modifying menu bar

              Hello,

              I have published my site which contains more than 50 pages.
              Now I want to modify the menu bar.
              I have to modify the menu bar of every page and re-publish all the pages or there is a faster solution?

              Thanks,

                If you are using BV12, each page must be re-published when making changes, as the PHP Include method no longer works properly with the new BV coding.

                  Vasili,
                  I don't understand. It is the 3rd time that a web directory doesn't approve my site.
                  They ask me to read their submission guidelines.
                  For example:http://www.directoryplusplus.com/ has the following:
                  1. Your website must be accessible by a search engine spider. This means no forms or javascript linking pages together and all internal pages must be linked with the home page
                  2. No deep links are allowed in free submissions
                  3. Porn, Warez, Illegal Sites are all forbidden
                  4. All sites must be in English
                  1. We reserve the right to remove your website from the lists without notification or explanation.
                  2. We reserve the right to change or update your website information without notification.
                  3. We reserve the right to send you e-mail updates regarding our directory.
                  4. We reserve the right to change these terms and rules without notification.

                  Can you tell me where is the problem with my site?
                  Thanks,

                  Marc

                    You have too many scripts (Forms) to do analyses, calculations, etc. on your HTML base-coded pages (BV generates WC3 compliant - but simplified - HTML pages).

                    If it is essential to have these fuctional scripts on your site, then you should seriously consider using a different "platform" that is typically more "secure-rated" and would allow such functions to not 'dominate' the page scripting itself (which is flagged as a possible rogue embedment of a scripted threat).

                    Seriously consider using a PHP-based site such as Wordpress for it's ease of management, or the more capable CMS types as found in Joomla, Mambo, etc.

                    There is no way of convincing this Directory that your sites are clean and non-threatening, as they are using simple analytic tools to screen sites and pages "weighing" them to see how the scripting follows normal guidelines, and your sites have some very heavy scripts loaded onto them ...

                      Re: Please have look on my site

                      Yes, it is clear that forms and calculators are essential. Without them, my site is dead.
                      For that reason, I will follow the evolution of the popularity in the next weeks-months and evaluate If I have to use a different platform.
                      I see also that they reject sites with deep links if the submission is free of charge. I think a deep link is a link to an other site, isn't it? I have some of these links in my site.
                      However, these directories which reject my site are a minority.
                      Thank you for the feedback.

                        Unless you really, really want your site to be in these certain few Directories, I wouldn't waste any time worrying about it at all: if you can keep the look-and-feel and personal control over your site by continuing to use BlueVoda and still provide the growing Net presence that makes sense to you, then more power to you - why change horses mid-stream?
