UFO Design | Website Designers Sussex

UFO have just completed a new front page for allseasonsindustrialroofing.co.uk. Their current site was not performing well at all on search engines. This was due to a severe lack of content and keyword rich text. Also it had been built using some outdated methods that were holding it back. We have absolutely no doubt they are about to experience a massive increase in traffic. From this homepage revamp we hope they will realise the benefits of  having the whole site redone. Watch this space . . .

There are so many factors and I have some pointers of do’s and dont’s on our main site here. Everyone of course wants to be in the top 10 on google for their search term. In a lot of cases this is possible if your geographic target is relatively small, county level for example. If you want to compete with the big boys on a national level then you need to take on some serious thought about how to move forward. in my experience it is best to not be too aggressive with backlinking ( getting links to your site ) this should be done in a gradual and natural way, or even better you need to create some content that people are going to want to naturally link to.  For example this article might get linked to here and there due to it being informative.

Dont get 500 links for your site in a week. Search engines are wise to this kind of aggressive backlinking. Obviously linking to your website from other websites with keyworded anchor text is a good idea for example (  web design sussex << this link leads to my web design page ) but dont do it if it doesn’t feel natural and dont have the same anchor text for all of your back links again this will seem un natural to search engines and they are sure to be onto it. Vary it up a bit.

If you find yourself creating links just for SEO reasons then try and avoid this. it is far better to take your time and grow the site naturally and organically creating a website that people will find is easy to get around. It is no good getting 1000 confused people running around your site who purchase nothing from you.

Information thats the key. Provide content people want to visit and revisit. Blogs are a wonderful way to build up your websites page count and provide content that people will return to read. If you want your business to succeed on the internet. “You need to put the time in” even with an SEO firm you need to be involved and active in your business on the internet.

Dreamweaver: An FTP error occured cannot conect to host

Ok shock horror Dreamweaver CS4 suddenly decided to not connect to certain servers in my site list today. I tried everything deleting the site and redoing it, checking passive unchecking everything and re checking.I even deleted the .dat cache file for Dreamweaver in hope. But no it still wouldn’t connect to certain servers when my FTP clients Filezilla and Cyberduck would connect so it couldn’t be a firewall issue blocking ports.

Please make sure you check the obvious things first like is my

• FTP username correct and password?
• Can I connect using other FTP clients on the same computer?

Things I tried.

Adding :21 after the ftp host name for example ftp.theufoserver.com:21

This did not work for me but it might for you.

In Dreamweaver  / Preferences / Site /  I upped the FTP Timeout to 60 seconds

This did not work for me but it might for you.

This worked for me!

Ok so instead of putting in  ftp host name for example ftp.theufoserver.com I entered the ip address of the domain name.

If you do not know what the ip address of your domain name is go here http://www.hcidata.info/host2ip.htm

I do hope this works for someone out there and it saves you the 3 hours it cost me today trying to work out this Dreamweaver CS4 Bug. All I can think is that Dreamweaver for some reason on a certain host will not process the name into an IP address. leave me a comment if you find anything else useful to add to this article.
