FlashTesti on Google Page Rank

In this post I would like to tell a story about my new blog and how it is indexed in google's page rank.

Friday, February 9-2007.

I created a blog called flashtesti.blogspot.com. In this blog I put some flash animations that friendster or myspace users could use as testimonial. I also decided to put category in the posts, such as Valentine, Birthday, Love, Friends. But the blog only have few posts.

-- Google status: Not indexed

-- Google status: Not indexed

Sunday, February 11-2007.

I added some flash animation in Birthday Category. The blog have almost 16 posts. I submitted the blog's address in google.
I also add this flashtesti.blogspot.com to mybloglog, technorati and few blog directories.

I didn't add another flash animation 'cause I have no time. But I always monitor the blog report through extremetracker, mybloglog, and google sitemap.
The blog have several visitors, the referrer are mybloglog and friendster testimonial. There is no one from google search.

-- Google status: Yup, my blog is in google index.

Yup, the visitors increased this day. Most of them came from friendster testimonial. But I noticed that some visitors came with google search. Hooray... The keyword is valentine flash testimonial, but my blog position not in top 10 yet.

-- Google status: My blog is in the index and I have some visitors.

Wednesday, February 14-2007.

Today is the valentine day and I have larger visitors from Google Search. Then I realize that almost all of the visitor came from Google Search with several keywords (not only valentine flash testimonial). In extremetracking I have 135 unique visitors today and still counting :P

-- Google status: My blog is in the first place for several keywords, such as "valentine flash testimonial"

DemocraKey "Is/Not" an Important Program


Today I visited one of my favorites site gizmodo.com, then I found out that DemokraKey became download of the day program in lifehacker.com. And I think that you may not want to try this program if you don't use public computer often. What this program do, is only secure our data/application when using different computer. All you need to do is install the program to your iPod or Flash Disk and you'll have Firefox, Thunderbird and ClamAV (all in portable version).

Mmhh... Ngelanjut lagi ceritanya nich.
Di server gateway sebelumnya (yang rusak itu) program yang digunakan sebagai proxy adalah Squid+Squidguard+Privoxy . Di server backup, Squid sudah berjalan dengan baik namun squidguard dan privoxynya belum ada. Walaupun berdasarkan pengalaman squidguard dapat menjadi filter yang baik, namun gw juga ingin mencoba untuk menggunakan program yang lain yaitu dansguardian.

Setelah menggunakan dansguardian, gw menyadari bahwa dansguardian ini cara kerjanya cukup unik. Dimana program ini menentukan filternya dengan menggunakan berat kata-kata yang ada di alamat atau halaman website tersebut. Cukup ampuh sepertinya, daripada squidguard yang hanya mengandalkan daftar black list.

Tapi walaupun cara kerjanya ampuh, ternyata ada sisi negatifnya juga. Beberapa jam setelah dijalankan gw dapat laporan pertama dari Doan kalau dia gak bisa posting testimonial ke arthur di friendster. Besoknya ada lagi laporan dari Lova kalau dia gak bisa buka email yahoonya gara-gara Dansguardian.

Hal-hal yang seperti ini nich yang buat pusing kepala. Padahal waktu gw coba, semuanya baik-baik aja. Tapi gak apa2 lah daripada server gateway jalan gak ada filternya bisa gawat nanti.

Nah... Setelah data-data yang diperlukan sudah dicopy terutama konfigurasi-konfigurasi dan direktori email user gw jadi agak tenang, karena hal yang paling penting bisa diselamatkan. Nah walaupun server backup bisa menjalankan fungsi sebagai gateway dan sharing dengan baik tapi masih belum bisa menjadi mail server backup.

Jadi, akhirnya yang gw lakukan adalah install mail server dari awal !!! Keliatannya sich males banget, tp berhubung gw ud ada pengalaman sedikit jadi gw yakin kalo bisa menjalankan dengan waktu yang tepat. (Bayangkan aja proyek mail server ini tadinya adalah skripsi gw)

Setelah bergumul dengan script-script dan command-command yang begitu banyak itu, akhirnya konfigurasinya selesai juga. Walaupun pada tahap terakhir ada fungsi2nya yang belum sempurna, tapi yang pasti pengguna ud bisa menggunakan fasilitas email mereka.

Tapi mail server juga belum cukup, masih ada banyak konfigurasi menunggu. Mulai dari fungsi web filtering, dns, MRTG, banwdwithd.

Jadi bersambung lagi ya.... (soalnya ud mau pulang nich)
