Answers gets older and dies

Yahoo! Answers celebrated its first birthday yesterday answering any query a web user may have. Over in the Google camp, they recently shut down Google Answers and are no longer accepting questions. I guess Yahoo! can celebrate being top dog for once although I am sure they would prefer it would be a more prestigious tool such as their search.

Use domain privacy

December 1, 2006 at 5:58 pm · Filed under Tips

If you have multiple web sites and domains, consider using domain privacy to hide your contact details. There are several reasons for this:

  • Hide information from your competitors and SEOs looking to steal ideas from your network of websites
  • Google knows all, they have been a domain registrar since 2005 and have easy access to domain contact information. If you are linking between your multiple domains, don’t let Google know all the sites are the same owner by simply hiding the domain contact information.

You might also consider using different web hosts, dns servers and domain registratrs as well to keep as many of your domains as unique as possible.
