All My FAQs revisited

[=?iso-8859-1?Q?Kim_Andr=E9_Aker=F8?=]

Yesterday, I received the backup files of AllMyFAQs.com from Jerry
Muelver himself, just so I could get a version up and running.

The following two URLs point to the exact same location, so just use
the one you feel most comfortable with.

http://allmyfaqs.net/
http://allmyfaqs.org/

I had to make a few changes to make it work somewhat properly (it's now
read-only, and the "page index" link points to the .net domain above).
I know that some of the internal links are absolute (in which case they
point to the .net domain above).

Let me know if you notice any errors that need to be fixed. And spread
the word if you want to (but only if you want to).

Yahay - that ridiculous pop-up/floatie ad thingy has gone

Now then [1] - for your next trick resurrect the AWW soap opera.

As it is read-only, and the guest register page for me is terribly out
of date, can you please remove that page entirely?

Thanks.

The page...

....refers to CSS tutorials and gives bullets about their content, but provides
no way to actually view a tutorial (that I can find).

w00t! Thanks Kim. A noble effort on your part.

I'm not sure that's a good idea.

By making the same page accessible through different domains, you split
up the Google Rank, and hence, lower the chance for novice "customers"
to find the page.

I'm not objecting you to reserve both the net and org domain, but you
should advertise only one of the two, try to keep the other one secret
or play it down at least.

By the way, in terms of Google, there are 4 domains we're dealing with:

http://allmyfaqs.net/
http://allmyfaqs.org/
http://www.allmyfaqs.net/
http://www.allmyfaqs.org/

I'd say, pick one of the four, promote that one (and only that one), and
discourage the use of all others.

I'd agree

promote that one (and only that one), and discourage the use of all
others.

by application of 301 faerie dust perhaps?

Mine as well. It states that I own both affordablehost.com and host
allmyfaqs - neither is true.

Thanks!

I disagree. Instead use a 301 redirect.

You'd have to blame Dylan Parry for that one, since he's the one who
runs the Webpageworkshop.co.uk site.

Suggestion taken, your info page has been removed.

Sorry about that. Wasn't paying enough attention when I clicked on a link in a
sig instead of the ones you provided.

I'd say don't bother doing anything. Nobody reads it.

Yep, that would be my fault! I've not had all that much time for
updating that particular site in the last 12 months

There are only two articles linked to on that page, and the rest are
placeholders for me to complete when I find the time...

Yeah, that's right. Blame poor, (not-so-)old me Oh... I suppose it
*is* my fault :\

 

[Greg N.]

I agree up to this point.

I disagree. Instead use a 301 redirect.

If, after a while, a ton of sites on the web carry a link to another
than the "primary" url, a lot of potential google page ranking for the
primary url will be lost. That's because a 301 redirect will most
likely result in a lesser ranking credit (or none at all) for the
primary URL than a direct link.

So, a 301 redirect is fine, but 'Id also specifilally discourage the use
of the secondary URLs.

Good point. I've set up a rewrite that redirects all requests on the
..org domain (with 301) to the .net domain.

Yup, now you only need to add a redirect 301 from www.allmyfaqs.net to
allmyfaqs.net (or vice versa of course)
