Browser Error Messages
( The Best Web Hosting Service )- All browsers like Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and others have browser error messages appearing at one time or another. These messages are called HTTP status codes, and come out whenever some error occurs when loading a web page.
Most errors are indicated by a three-digit number code. These number help to pinpoint where the specific problem came from.
The error codes that begin with the number 4 are client errors, or those that occur on your end.
Error Message: 400 means “Bad Request.” This simply means your request has been denied because the typed address does not exist, it has moved or changed address, or there was a mistake in typing letters, numbers, or signs. You’d want to make sure you left no spaces in your address. Also double check if your browser’s advanced setting is set to HTTP 1.1 or higher. The older browsers do not have this enabled.
Error Message: 401 for “Unauthorized”, or 403 for “Forbidden.” You may have tried to access an encrypted website or a site that’s password-protected, or you typed in a wrong password. Try to upgrade your internet browser, and security tools, then enter website you know. Check that the password you enter is correct, then try entering the problem site once more.
Error Message: 404 “File not Found” or 410 for “Gone.” If you have an old address, or the website has moved addresses, you definitely cannot access those. If your typing is correct, but the same message appears after another try, then the file must be gone. The 410 Gone message simply means that the once who maintains the website you were wanting to access, has moved the file, removed it, or directed it to another webpage. Some webmasters redirect surfers to where they have moved the file.
For Error Messages that begin with the number 5, these are coming from the Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the actual site stored on the server.
Error Message: “500 Internal Server Error.” This just means the web server encountered an error. Often, the ISP or the page you need is going through some technical problems, the site may be having maintenance at the time, or it is overloaded from so many users at one time. These are often temporary, and if you attempt after some 10-15 minutes, you’ll find you can now access what you couldn’t earlier. When the problem persists for longer than a few hours, however, you can alert your local ISP or the site owner.
Error Message: “505 HTTP Version Not Supported.” The server here does not support the version of the HTTP protocol being used for the request. This is often the case when an older version of the internet browser is used, so the need to update it to be able to work with the site.
Error Message: “509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded.” A temporary error, this message is hardly seen. It simply means you have run out of space to save your file, especially for large photo and file storage files. These sites allow you only so much space to save data, and you are exceeding your space. You can then pay for more space as needed.
Note that today’s more advanced anti-virus, firewalls, and spy ware could also get in the way of your internet surfs. This is often because there are built in privacy settings that could strip your browser requests of information you also need. That is why you receive the error message.
InMotion Fixed Site Hack!
( The Best Web Hosting Service )- As a lot of you already know this web hosting review site is actually hosted with InMotion, but recently the blog portion of this site got hacked (for the first time since switching over from GoDaddy to InMotion.) The root of this site wasn’t hacked just the blog portion (the part you are reading now). It was hacked on 12/6/10. I can tell you first hand that InMotion went out of their way to make sure I was happy with minimal downtime. And, minimal downtime there was!
So how did I discover my site was hacked? Honestly, had know clue until I was ready to put up a handful of blog post. However, when I went to the blog portion of this site I found that there was a penguin there coming out of a computer saying something like “this site has been hacked by prototype.” Great, right? My reaction was like oh shit not again, but I have contacted Inmotion many times and really wasn’t to worried about getting the problem fixed as soon as I could.
I went to their homepage and clicked on “live chat”. Then contacted their technical support staff. You know because billing or sales wouldn’t help you fix a hacked site
. Just so you know just provide your username and password and you will be right through, so they can help you. In fact, that is the first thing I type. Here is my username and here is my password. Now here is my problem….
Basically, I just told them that my blog portion of my site has been hacked and I need to know if they can reset my data from MySQL back to a couple days ago. At first, they were like yeah we can do that since our backups run every 24-36 hours. But, before doing that the tech actually took the time to go the blog, login to WP-Admin and see that it was a theme hack. I believe the theme name was 2Grey or something. Basically, just told me their was a global hack with that theme and that I probably shouldn’t use it.
I actually have a new theme installed now and I think it looks a lot cleaner. What do you think? So this problem was resolved right away and I actually upgraded my site. Inmotion seriously, is the best hosting service I have ever worked with. I would highly recommend that you read my Inmotion review if you are unhappy with your hosting service.
Have you guys/girls had any experiences with hacked sites, and how did your hosting service resolve the situation.
6 Ways To Get Banned From Google
( The Best Web Hosting Service )- Google recently disabled thousands of accounts, which were banned from using their accounts further. But these banned accounts and slaps had to happen because some advertizers have not been doing their part of the agreement as internet marketers. There are acceptable marketing methods, and not complying with them affects so many users of the internet. Even new advertizers are not exempted from being banned or slapped, because Google has an entire tutorial on using their system to advertize.
Here is a synopsis of Google’s requirements. Their demands actually match a very organized and executed campaign with the best marketing methods and business practices. But these require effort, diligent application of the marketing practices, and care in checking out things regularly. This is as it should be—no entrepreneur for that matter should be careless and sloppy when doing their advertizing with Google or any other company.
1. Quality score: This score is highest when your ad keywords match those on the landing page, and they both match what’s being offered. Said to be the worst practice is using keywords that are not related, that get a high response to promote an offer that’s unrelated. Google bans this type of advertizing, as this practice is deceitful and unethical, with no place in a legitimate business.
2. A landing page should be well developed, should load quickly, and get enough click-through rate. Ads which are performing poorly are slapped with higher prices for those with the same keywords. This results in a ban if it continues. Good professional pages get across a message with a good response, and match keywords are rather simple to create. You should have this in place before starting any pay per click or PPC campaign.
3. Avoid putting too many ads on a single page, which most spam practice. Some marketers put in so many links within an email, perhaps hoping that we’d either pick one we like or click all! Actually, hardly anyone really clicks on these at all, especially of landing pages. A simple rule applies: There should be one offer per page that matches the ad keywords.
4. By all means avoid a bait and switch tactic. Google, as well as most other buyers, will ban you for good reason. It is obviously deceptive, just like using unrelated keywords to catch traffic, and awfully provoking to one who clicks on an ad to get to one thing, but ends up somewhere else not related to what he needs. This is, to say the least, annoying, and the results are never pleasant. An advertizer could get banned, ruining their name permanently.
5. Your landing page should have original content that should also match with your keywords and offer. You should also include a privacy disclaimer, some information about you, the website owner, and some other information about how you conduct business. You want a professional website that is also trustworthy. PPC requires know-like-trust or KLT, just as with other forms of marketing.
6. If you have doubts and questions, reread and follow Google’s guidelines. Find time to check your ad performance regularly, ensuring that your payment information is up to date, and that your ads are converting well. If you find that they’re not, make sure you take time to twist them over to perk up their performance. Otherwise, you’ll get slapped and banned in time.
If you follow what you agreed to in Google’s rules, and conduct your business decently and professionally, there is no reason why others will not see and accept you, and you’ll find doing business with Google smooth. Just as with other PPC advertizing systems, when a problem does occur, solving it becomes easier and simpler. If you need more help, find the best marketing methods through Google’s available resources on the Adwords website.
