Orientation on the ground before the upcoming trip


Since the "Russian" season in Egypt has not yet been completed, and though we, mere mortals, the Alps do not shine, I decided I did tell you about one of the useful services of search engines. There are questions of online satellite maps.

Very, I tell you, a good thing when you want to go on a journey through unfamiliar places. Especially if you still have not been there. These services I used, before his trip to Sharm el-Sheikh, at the end of summer. And you forgot to tell about it. Therefore, filling a gap in information.

If you look on the network, you will find a lot of online maps as individual cities and countries. I am also interested in online interactive satellite maps. But such cards are presented in three major portals: Google Maps, Yandex.Maps and Bing Maps.

All of them are built on similar principles. You can view maps as: administrative maps, satellite imagery, hybrid (photo plus designations and boundaries). And to switch between types of maps can be any point. Maximum approximation makes it possible to consider the homes and streets with a bird's-eye view. So I even saw some kind of pool in the hotel where I was then rested and the location of the beach.

All the maps have the opportunity to remove the left side panel and push the map to the entire width of the screen. This is done by one click of the mouse on the special button at the left edge of the card. There also is the control panel card. Available to move the map in different directions, decrease or increase the scale, more comfortable orientation.

It is much easier to do it all using one arm. Left-click "grab" the map and moving the mouse, move it. Double-clicking the left button to center and brings the selected point. Scroll wheel scales (decrease-increase) the image. Here, the basic function - they are virtually identical, but slightly differently made. However, all intuitive. If you have a good internet connection (broadband) you can see this in the accompanying online video.

You should also take into account the factor of speed and with the maps. Please note that the map is an image that is loaded from the server system. As you pulling out his window in the map display in the browser may need to wait for long downloads - not in a hurry, in this case. Look for the first administrative map, as it is lighter in weight, and in the right place switch on satellite map (in the case of Bing - "Aerial").

Following points should be taken into account. BingMaps does not work with Opera browser, but only with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. With Maps Google "and" Yandex.Maps, no such problem - they work in all browsers. However, Google recommends that you use your web browser Google Chrome, which is natural.

Of the considered map, most of all I liked Google Maps. Although, in all cases, satellite photos were made somewhere in the beginning of the two thousandth. This I determined by how the terrain has changed in some familiar place for me. So, if your hotel, built after the 2003-2005 period, it is likely not to find. Nevertheless, the projects, of course, useful. In addition, they are actively growing.

So at Bing Maps can view maps in 3D-form. You can turn the home planet and even a little, to see the relief and some architectural objects. Version, but only a test - not yet perfect, but working. In order to use the need to download the client program (1.8Mb), and then install it - from the Internet load is ten megabytes. Download the distribution you can click on the button in the 3D interface card.

But, of course, the leader of interactive 3D-cards is a separate service Google: "Planet Earth". Download software client and install it, and loading the desired amount of the network. Once launched, you can learn not only the Earth (land and ocean), but also the Moon, Mars and the star world. Map of the world is equipped with features not only to watch photos and video, location-specific, but also add their own photographs. In addition, the individual sites are linked references to articles in Wikipedia, loadable in a separate window, as you wish.

The only thing that the use of solid models, the speed of the Internet should be even larger. If you have low bandwidth connections, it is better to confine planar maps. You can also use separate programs for the computer model to simulate the planet.

This review covers services: Maps Google, Yandex.Maps and Bing Maps:

Further promotion of the blog, since its establishment


Well, here stumbled I, with its courses on the creation of websites for Narod and blogs on Blogger. Stumbled, again, to a question from a man who, perhaps, some of them tried to overpower. Question published on Reformal (see form on the left going to any page of your blog), and reads: "You describe how to create a blog, but, as it further unwind?". And the question is - a serious and interesting. And for many web masters, he did - sacramental. I am also not an exception - he at the beginning. However, some initial things try to voice, in one jurisdiction, which I have at the moment.

First, consider the very concept of what "roll out" and what types of sites can be identified.

Under the promotion of a can be viewed simultaneously two things: increase the flow of visitors to the site and increase puzomerok (from the word "belly"). Visitors - this is you, and this conversation will go a little lower. A puzomerki - a level site in the rankings of search engines Google (PR - Page Rank) and Yandex (TIC - thematic index of citing, according to Yandex catalog).

For example, at the time of publication, the domain «vladekas.com» has the parameters: PR = 3 (out of 10), TIC = 20 (out of 160000, so at the very Yasha). If rough, then they depend on the quantity and quality of links to your site from other resources. These indicators can focus on growth (ranking) of your resource in the eyes of search engines. In general, the parameters of a site you can learn or services like PR-CY or through programs such as Site-Auditor. These options will also be important in the case of your desire to trade links and articles from the site.

Strangely enough, but a large belly, is not always a guarantee of a lot of traffic (number of visitors) to your site, although it contributes to this. All the more important quality content site and its ranking in search engines. On attracting visitors to your resource and will continue it.

Divide the promotion of a site in order to get targeted visitors to the site on several directions: "natural selection" through social tools (SMO), search engine optimization of the site, search engine promotion (SEO), buying visitors.

"Natural Selection" - this is not a term that I am so kidding. In fact - is that your site provides real life in the network. This is where links to your site appear in the network in a natural way. Like flowers in the garden which is planted by your visitors. For example, when you recommend this story in their publications on their website or blog, or, when appearing on forums and blogs, are recommending in ICQ or a letter to a friend, in response to mail or posts on Twitter, then my site is growing in the eyes of search engines and promotes the network.

All these actions are incorporated in the original basis for the World Wide Web - sites with hyperlinks to the sites on which people walked on it, not having in the arsenal of search engines. And last, in turn, is now geared for the content of the site and its reference in the network. In order to give you a "quota" of visitors on search queries by allocating a specific place in the village of SERP. Here, for a place in the top ten issue search engines, and struggles between the players on the market. Promotion - is big business in the network, which involved large and small-firm CEOs, and I'm with you in detail.

So the surest way to move small SDLu - use natural methods. And this work with the audience and self-promotion network webmaster. After all, you have access to the same opportunities to recommend your site to link to it in my signature and profile in the forums, comment on blogs of a similar topic, register web site in the rankings, post articles with links to their service life in all possible places.

You may also want to create their own mailing list, which sends messages to subscribers of new publications. Available popular free services, look at the main page of this site. They will help you gather the initial number of subscribers, through announcements mailing in their rasslkah and catalogs. In addition, if the engine of your site generates RSS-news stream, it must be used. Allow the visitor to read your publication or announcements via RSS-readers. By the way, based on RSS, you can also make a mailing list using the services FeedBurner or rss2email.

Also, no one forbids you not to create their blogs on free blog service: LiveInternet.Ru, LiveJournal.com, Blog.ru, blogs Mail.Ru and mass of others. They take short announcements of publications, with reference to the article. It can also be used to speed up the indexing of web pages by search engines. Indexing - adding pages to the database search engine search robot, which determines its appearance in the SERP.

So we quietly moved to the use sotsialok, or SMO-promotion. There is due to social services - services which are filled by users. These include: services web bookmarks, free blogging platforms, microblogging services like Twitter, video portals like YouTube, social networks such as "classmates" and "contact". All of them have various opportunities to advance the resource.

Under the search engine optimization site involves the creation of such a structure and content that will be attractive to search engines. Basically, it's technical activities related to the programming code pages and keywords in articles and Titl pages. Namely:

Need optimization (relief HTML-code Web pages), to clean debris from the program and increase the density of keywords on the page. Rubbish in the code appears, usually through the use of visual editors for creating Web pages, or worse - Ward. Also desirable site layout using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which facilitates weight pages. And best of all, to use the site engine and optimized design patterns.
If you want to page visitors come from FS on specific request, it is logical that the tex article should be is relevant to them. See what people are looking for your topic, please visit: "Wordstat" - in Yandex and "Keyword Tool" - in Google. Use reasonably seen - too high density of a keyword can be penalized for search engine spam. The optimum percentage of "sick" hand column on the page is from 2 to 6%.
It is necessary to fill the standard meta-tags, namely: "description" - description of the page, "keywords" - key words, "title" - title page. They also uchuvstvuyut in search engine optimization site. But, again, do not overdo it with the volume of text. And if you use the engine to create the site, then these tags are sure to be filled in automatically at the stage of creating your publication in the admin area.
In drawing a tag «alt», with its description. No need to neglect the visitors to search for pictures. It is necessary to fill it and try to give the drawings to the content of the title, even by the transliteration of Russian words.
The site should be continuously updated. And added to the publications should conform to the basic theme of the site. It can also improve ranking in search engines.

As for SEO, that is, search promotion, it is already provided additional financial costs. Although, of course, all that is described above, is also part of a larger SGA. But some stereotypes formed technology. Actions, such as to improve site ranking in the SERP, and to increase puzomerok. Go to warn that the unprofessional use of such methods, often leads to penetration of the site under the filters of search engines.

In search promotion include:

Runs options through social bookmarking. You can do yourself through Bposter or manually. Or order the service to other people or services such as Cheaptop. Objective: To expedite indexing site.
Registration in catalogs - it is run on the directory sites. At the expense of this method there are conflicting opinions. They say that if you run make reasonable, it is useful, but if not, you can get under the filters. It is reasonable - it is when each catalog unique text description of the site. Done with the help of special programs for databases or directories ordered run by specialists for the money (5-20 dollars). Objective: To improve the position of site in the SERP and increase the citation index and PR (which is no longer effective).
Promotion articles. Provides for the publication of your articles in a set of directories with the ability to add free publications users (services Zhlobov.Net and SEO CITY. There is also a purchase of placement of articles on various websites, through special projects: Seozavr - and Liex. You should also use caution, although the method is relatively "white."
Buying links on the pages of other sites. Done directly, by agreement or through the reference of the exchange and is considered search spam. The best such Exchange - SAPE. By this method, we assign the purchase of guards on blogs.
Link exchange between sites. This is when you make an agreement with the owner of another site on the mutual accommodation options at each other. (Unchanged)
Special theme promotion, which periodically "palyat" at the CEO Forum (Forum SAPE, Searchengine, Mastertalk). Palyat themes usually already exhausted themselves.

Naturally, all the technology of search promotion of sites I do not know. But those who were "in sight", I have described.

The latest version of the attraction of traffic is its purchase, through the appropriate services. You buy or visitors to exchange traffic exchange, or clicks on the advertisements or banners on the stock exchanges of contextual advertising. Exchange buying and selling traffic: WEB-ROM, Ru Clicks and many others. Key exchange tizernoy content and advertising: Google AdWords, Adlabs, ADSkape, Begun, YandeksDirect.

Note that the traffic to buy wisely, and having a number of people with experience in setting up advertising campaigns. Otherwise, you can merge the advertising budget to no avail. И кстати, большинство ссылок выше могут помочь вам заработать на рекламе.

Here, roughly, the direction in which we can move in the promotion of your site. I will not say that everything described himself doing, though necessary. I advise you to study profiles CEO forums - there's a lot of information on topics move, read and ask. Links are given to you above.

Bing.com - a new global search engine from Microsoft



Two weeks ago, May 28, 2009, the world community was represented by new search engine from Bill Gates and his corporation Microsoft. Called their brainchild - Bing.com. This system will replace the previous search projects of the corporation, such as MSN and Windows Live. At the moment, with them already, users are redirected to the Bing.

Built windose positioning a new search engine, as a system for making quick decisions, that is, providing you with the most complete information on request. Let's see how it will cope with such an extraordinary challenge in the future. In the meantime, I'll do a small review of the system.

So, clicking on the link Bing.com, we find ourselves on the page with a search form. And, as with other systems, we can choose a general search on the internet, POSK on the images and video. There is reference to the "Advanced", but while there I could not find anything interesting. You can also customize output sites exclusively in their native language (I was identified as a Russian) and sites of only one country (Russia).

Screenshot of the search form on Bing:




If we do a general search on the network, then the left column of the search results, see options more narrow query. For example, if you search for "weather", then the left you will see an opportunity to be one click on a page with search results for: "Weather in Russia" or "weather Moscow.

When you look at the pictures in Bing.com, also left to be given the choice of image parameters on: the size, layout, color, style, availability of people. And if you click on the little plus next to these parameters, it opens a submenu with more depth filters.

Also, and tips in the "Video", you can customize the selection of the duration, screen size, resolution, source. A little plus will allow more detailed search settings. But the most interesting discovery for me was that when you move on eskiz pictures video, it turns into thumbnails video and makes it possible, at no cost traffic to understand what is the full video. That appealed to me in this search engine.

Well, that's basically all about Bingo. Sets this search engine to bookmark to your browser, or make it home page, and discover yet another useful service.

Overview of search engines


To begin with, that you can find not only online but also on the blog. Why there is a special form in the sidebar. According to this principle is organized search on many network resources, in the form of search on your site, blog or forum. So enjoy.


However, this article will focus on the global search for the network and the actual search engines. Under the search engine service refers to search engine, in the index (that is, in fact, in the archive) which has a large number of indexed pages of sites of various themes and focus. That's the multimillion-dollar assemblage and may be the desired information. Well, or close to the unknown - it is as lucky.

At present themselves polzuemymi our segment of the Internet search engines are Google and Yandex. But if you Google the product and covering the entire foreign world, that Yandex is mainly specialized in Cyrillic Internet (Runet, Uanet, Bynet, and so on). In any case, I use both, and what you advise.

However, besides the above there are enough other useful search engines. From overseas - it is Yahoo, MSN, he also Live Search (from Maykrsoft), AltaVista. From our - Rambler, Webalta, nigma, GoGo.Ru, APORT.

By the way many search engines make it possible to install the search form to your site. I installed Google's form - so that the grace I beg to search.
