Voting Question: Search engine optimization?

HI all. I've recently moved a load of web page files from one URL to another. However, all of the key words & description tags within the site point to the old URL when typed into google, despite the fact that I didn't even add the keyword/description tags until after I uploaded to the files to the new URL. So, with the very kind advice of another yahoo member, I decided to have a go at loading a .htacces file into my root file and use a 301 redirect protocol. The hosting company which I use, run Linux servers which I believe, are the only ones which understand this type of protocol and my site is in HTML. I have only just uploaded the .htacces file but, when I type into google the relevant key words, it still points to the old URL. Does Google need time to index this? Here's the .htacces file: Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on rewritecond %{http_host} ^beautyboxworcester.co.uk [nc] rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.beautyboxworcester.co.uk/$1 [r=301,nc] I hope you'll can help!!!!!!

Resolved Question: What do you think of my ecommerce website?

http://www.doublehappinessrecords.co.uk/ It's very basic... Hopefully all the basic information is there though. I'm not very skilled on web design to be honest. For the technically minded I am using FrontPage 2002. I am still trying to work out how to get images into OSCommerce from an external host so there are no product images yet... NB No offers of paid assistance or links to your web design company please, thank you!I won't be paying anyone else to work on the site, I don't have the budget, can't justify the expense, I am 100% independent in my business dealings and intend to stay that way. It's no good for me to spend 2 years getting an ecommerce business going and then turn responsibilty over to someone else - not an option! more

Resolved Question: Which web host is the most reliable?

I'm trying to start a personal .com website but am getting a bit swamped by the amount of options and unclear information on this subject. Most review sites seem to be either biased or not current enough. I am currently based in the UK and will likely be paying for the hosting in pounds, but I will be moving to America for the next few years, to return every couple of months or so, and am a little unsure as well of where I should choose to have the server based. This will likely be a small operation with little traffic, and I'm only really interested in having enough space to upload a small picture gallery. I would however like the option of adding on other domain names if I branch out later. I am an HTML/graphic design novice, but I have some very handy friends. The easier it is to use, the better! Suggestions please?? more

Resolved Question: I want to create a website for the first time, how do I go about this and how much will it cost?

Also, do you think it's a good idea? Should I make a personal website first and what can I put on it? Will I be able to generate any income from it? I have absolutely no idea how much it would cost other than looking at a website that I know are pretty good. Apparently, to have just my name with a .co.uk domain would only cost £2.49 for the first year and £2.99 for the second year. To me, that's peanuts in my opinion but I know that the domain is not the end. I've heard that there are web hosting services that will allow to to host your website for free, however, I can pay an annual fee of around £45 for web hosting, and I can get the .co.uk domain for free. Is this good value and would you advise me on doing this for my first website? Thank you very much.

Resolved Question: If you redirect your mail(web host) to your personal mail addy then how do you return it?

If you have web hosting, then i assume you use the redirect mail option and point it to your personal email address? So say you web hosted email is joeblogss@mydomain.co.uk and someone emails this address and this message is then redirected to your personal email, then how do your reply but hide your personal email address, i.e reply as joeblogss@mydomain.co.uk. Or does the webhost have an email server so that you don't need to redirect, what is best way? more

Resolved Question: What's the best UK web hosting provider?

Hello, I am looking for a web hosting provider to host my web site, and also to provide me with a domain name. My web site will only have about 3 or 4 page and will only be about 1MB in total, therefore I only really need a basic package. It will have no programming or server code, it will only have basic html and css. I have look at various web sites, and found that 1and1 is very cheap but I have read very bad reviews about it. It is only £1.99 a month for the basic package, which doesn't go up after a certain amount of years which is good, and a .co.uk domain name is £2.49 a year for 1st year and £2.99 a year after that. I have also had a look at uk-cheapest which has about the same sort of package but costs slightly less at £1.59 a month and a .co.uk domain name is £2.79 a year. They seem to have slightly better reviews but again, not great. I would really appreciate any input and your thoughts and expereinces on these companies or any other companies you would recommend. And just to remind you, I only really want to spend about £2.00 a month. Many thanks. more

Resolved Question: My web root doesn't redirect to index.html?

HI, I've recently changed the DNS servers from my domain name company to a hosting company. If I go on www.goplay-games.co.uk it says 404 not found, but if I go on www.goplay-games.co.uk/index.html it rightly redirects to index.php. Any ideas? - The change of the DNS was about 24 hours ago and it does say that for the DNS servers to change, it takes between 24 to 48 - but I assumed because the website was working, that the website has successfully changed over. more
