Re: New Domain using keyword
No problem, Brother! As a fellow "Defender" (I'm ex-Ranger) we already know how to work as a Team, and VodaTalk is merely another "unit" of personal progress, right?? LOL
AWStats (and especially Google Analytics, as this is something you embed on a page in the "Before Head") will give good numbers on a re-directed page, but there is nothing to track via forwarding --- there is no "page hit" or even "referring link" (which is a static element of a page).
Personally??
No-one wants to bring it up, but I will: I believe that sites built using a "generator" such as BV which depends on blending HTML and CSS governance for styles will always fare below expectations .... it is the nature of how the spiders are 'encumbered' trying to make allowances to properly read and evaluate a "style" that although seems to logistically comply with all the details of SEO it is still a more complicated evaluation process than necessary. In other words, BV allows you to build sites "by the numbers" and do all the pre-optimization that is practical and standard, but the fabric BV uses is just slightly different enough for the SE's to think it "second-class" to other formats, such as 100% php (as might be seen in a CMS foundation like a Joomla or Xoops build) or straight HTML (as might be seen via Dreamweaver).
If you summarize all the posts here in VT on how sites have zoomed to the top, it is usually a result of being a new site, a really tight KW use, a quirky use of a Key Phrase that may be under represented or new altogether, or some other "oddity" metric --- since if you check back the next month, these same sites have fallen inexplicably to deep positions from the Top the once enjoyed. Pride goeth before a fall, eh?
There is a lot of chatter on the web about this, and how CSS can be best "modified" to be less of a problem when sites are not 100% CSS, like how blending CSS and Flash is being somewhat effective in making Flash more acceptable. Things like that....you still have to read between the lines at times, but the fact remains "blends" do not fare well (as in BV = CSS+HTML).
* That is why I always am harping on the emphasis of Content development, Perfect Page Model build constructs, and dotting every "i" and crossing every "t" when it comes to the details we CAN prepare in BV like Meta development, H-Meta, etc.
No, that would be unlikely, unless you have been doing too much email distribution and have gotten a warning not only from your ISP but VH also: being warned about email also follows to your site, which is temporarily ID'd as a potential violator, and that has negative consequences.
