wrote it myself. I had to parse out all of the fricken SE's too, otherwise the stats were going into the thousands. It is very much on point alongside awstats, give or take a few hundred on the overall totals. I am happy with it.
Then you will want a million hits a month ,just accept it we are never satisfied and will work 24/7 regardless of stats lol
I won't give ya my IP-- otherwise you would BAN me for loving the tool and hammering your HostGAYTOR all the time
you're 150% correct. I am beginning to think that(all jokes aside) that directories can be a severe addiction/sickness. I am so addicted to always wanting to make new things, trying new things, working night and day and tweak everything constinuously, and although it's stressing, I really do actually enjoy it. A great example of satisfaction was when I woke up this A.M. and came to see a PM with reference to dump in an alternative forum on DP that I don't visit: post #312
Well if all the directory owners who wanted to use the tool contributed a few bucks each I am sure it would pay for a good server and it would be alot cheaper than SeoMoz's 40$ a month.
I am glad you raised this. I was to post it on my earlier post --but refrained myself --since I am the OP. This is a great subject --to buy a dedicated server by the community --and since Rob is the Copyright holder of the tool--he should get all the revenue from that site. we can definitely pool together a small fund for dedicated server.
The gesture is kind, and really appreciated. I think I would like to try and do this myself for you guys, and if need be down the road, if it became something popular and resource intensive, then I could maybe do some advertising to support the hosting(even upgrade to a fully dedicated)
How do you plan on increasing traffic to DD? And how do you identify what is human and which is MR G coming for a visit.
Well for small starters, I just spent roughly 1,000 here, about 10 minutes ago. Not to mention my normal advertising subscriptions that rock me every fricken day that continue on a monthly everyday basis. I detect search engine spiders based on their names, for example: http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/active/html/index.html
PageStrength is just a joke lately! I think this weekend I will be able to launch PagePower tool and I also think you will be amazed
Waiting badly for the pagepower lets see if it beats the monopoly(so far cos an0n's tool is not that public) of PS...
It's really no matter to me. If people want to come out and try to make something of the same type, it's fine by me. Didn't gripe about it with deeplinks, and won't gripe about it with my tool either.
Examples of subscriptions how much is chris' daily listing giving you each day? i was considering it...and on szab aswell. cheers
Well, the day is not over yet, but Monday I got hit for about 400 You must 'pay' to 'play' :evil grin:
I was referring to PS tool by SEOMOZ.... not yours, and i heard u had issues with HG on runnning that script on DUMP so thats probably the reason Pagepower would be a good option...
Its amazing that it has taken so long to sink in to know that these are fools not tools Why do I say that because when accessed from Asia they never work so what use are they
they are tools, but tools for fools. But then again, this is what DPers go by when deciding which directories have value So it's all about marketing and Rand targets the dumb.
Best advice ive heard since i joined a year ago.. Its basically i say something nice about yours and you return the favor... Most directories are the same as others with nothing mind boggling enough to distance themselves from the hundreds of other quality directories... It just boils down to who i like (personal prefrence) and nothing more then that... thx malcolm
