v7ndotcom elursrebmem Link Data

Now that Google has finally caught up and surpassed (currently returning over 32k results) both Yahoo and MSN when it comes to v7ndotcom elursrebmem SERPS, I thought it might be interesting to begin tracking backlink data for the top 20 sites. I’ll try and update it every week or two.

Spreadsheet #1 contains data broken down by domain. (This sheet contains a few indented listings, so it isn’t really the top 20. I’ll remove indents on future sheets).

Spreadsheet #2 contains merged data (with dups removed) of all backlinks. (If you were a link hunter looking for every site currently linking to a v7ndotcom elursrebmem page, this would be the spreadsheet for you).

v7ndotcom elursrebmem - The Google Ass Kicking Continues

Yahoo is now showing over 400 results for v7ndotcom elursrebmem. Google has managed to return some news and blog search results, but nothing in the organic listings.

Many people are speculating that they are intentionally omitting results, but a random sampling of the Google cache dates of the pages in Yahoo’s results indicates that it’s just poor crawler performance.

Here’s an example.

Yahoo’s cache is from today, but Google’s is well over a week old. Kind of suprising considering the PR of the site and the amount of new content that gets added on a daily basis.

It’s Official - I’m Finally a Rockstar

Todd’s regular co-host Jake Baillie has decided that his plate is a bit too full at the moment to continue as co-host of WebmasterRadio’s SEO Rockstar program. I’ve been filling in for Jake over the last few weeks, so Daron decided that he might as well make it official.

Tomorrow (at 4:00 pm Pacific time) will be my first official broadcast as co-host of SEO Rockstars.

WordPress Subdomain Plugin

Subster Rejuvenation v.021 is a WordPress plugin that turns your categories into subdomains. We are now running it on this site. I’m sure there might be a couple of bugs, so post comments if you find any.

Update 1-28-06

v0.21 is a major rewrite. Here’s a list of the new features:

• Sub categories are now nested properly. So urls will look like http://maincategory.domain.com/subcategory/post/
• You can now make subdomains out of static pages. Sub pages will also be nested the same way sub categories are.
• You can now tie a static page to a category subdomain. http://maincategory.domain.com/staticpage/
• You can now use separate themes for individual subdomains.

The only real downside of v0.20 is the fact that it is now no longer compatible with WP 1.5. If you want to run this version, you will need to upgrade to WP 2.0

Update 1-16-06

I’ve just uploaded the latest version. You can now select which categories you want to be converted to subdomains by checking a box on the edit category page. Unfortunately, this feature only works with WordPress 2.0.

Update 1-13-06

I think we now have all the login/cookie issues resolved. Everything seems to be working smoothly. The last thing I think we’ll add is the ability to pick and choose which categories you want to convert to a subdomain.

Update 1-11-06

It looks like we’ve fixed all the bugs mentioned so far. Once you install it, all of your current links (including your feed and comments) should be rewritten to the appropriate subdomain. It also handles all the 301’s for your old urls, so you don’t need to spend anytime worrying about links out on the web. (I just checked Dave’s site and his links to this site all work).

Also, I forgot to mention in the initial post that you need to have wildcard dns enabled for this plugin to work. I’m not a big fan of doing that, because it can lead to duplicate content issues, so we added a default 301 for any subdomain that isn’t a real category.

Beyond that, the only other issue we’ve seen has to do with cookies. If you are logged in, it will appear that you are logged out when you move from category to category. We should have that worked out tomorrow.
