WebProWorld Members,
Location, Location, Location: that's the
saying you undoubtedly here when talking about real
estate. That same line of thinking has trickled
to the online world as well. Meaning, geo locating
your site to a specific region has numerous advantages.
This line of thinking inevitably leads to the question:
How do I geo locate my site?
In
this video, Matt Cutts provides some answers
in relation to Google's search results. The specific
question being asked in the video is; How
do meta geo tags influence the search results?
Here's Cutt's response, "Typically
the geotags that are in meta tags are not as useful
and We don't tend to give those as much weight if
at all"
Cutts doesn't leave us hanging though and provides
insight as to what Google does look for. IP Address,
gTLD, and ccTLD are the three main factors that
Google uses for search results.
To provide yourself with more control with geo-location
you can also use Google's Webmaster Tools to manipulate
your content more efficiently. For example, even
if you have a dot com you can specify
certain content as being relevant for a particular
country.
Has anyone utilized meta geo tags, if so have you
noticed any different at all? Have you even messed
around with geo-location, and if so what have been
some of your strategies?
The ideas presented in the WebProWorld newsletter
editor's note do not reflect the thoughts, and
ideas of the WebProWorld community.

Adwords, dynamic urls and Google cache
I started an Adwords campaign for a shopping cart site about a month ago. The ads are pointed to dynamic urls, formatted as such:
http://www.mysite.com/index.asp?Page...=Custom&ID=123
The ads are running ok and the links work fine, but today I wondered how the natural results looked for these custom pages, so I hit "cached snapshot" on my google toolbar and none of these pages are showing up in the cache! Other, older pages are showing up ok, although they're not ranking well, which is why I'm paying G now.
If a bot crawls the page when I submit the Adwords ad, how could G not have a cached version of the page? Does it take longer than a month for these to show up?

Breakroom (General: Any Topic)
Outlook
Does anyone PLEASE know the answer to this. I have ben told by Telefonica that I have nearly 1,500 emails on my list that do not exist anymore. They have all come back to outlook express one at a time. I need to get them out of my address book. It is easy to add new entries to address book but to get one off of it is a different thing it seems. Have sat here for nearly four hours now and have only got rid of about 250 of them. Any speedy ideas PLEASE. Not sure which version of outlook I am on but it is a recent one.

Php insert different records into multiple mysql tables with same unique id
I have what is probably a simple problem with php. I'm relatively new to using php.
I am creating the registration page for my website and I want multiple tables to be filled into mysql using different data. However, I still need the unique id number to be filled into the tables and to be the same number in every table for a single user.
My id fields are int(11) unsigned auto_increment - this field is the primary key in the tables I am updating. I am able to generate the unique id number for my first table by simply using NULL in php so mysql will assign the next highest unique id number. This works for the INSERT for the first table but then how to I INSERT thta same unique id number in another table using a separate INSERT command right after the first one?
If there are the same number of records in each table, this is no problem. But, if one table gets out of order and has more records than the other, the unique id numbers do not align correctly between the separate tables.

Victim of own Success, VPN or Dedicated Server?
Looking for some advice about my shared server host, have been informed that my blog is causing server crashes (overloading) as is getting too many visitors and using too much bandwidth.
It has been suggested that I need to go for a VPN or Dedicated server, and I am considering options at the moment, was looking for some advice before making a decision on cost v benefit.

Where Does Social Media Fit into Mass Media?
Social media has produced a whole new era of media. But what does it mean for traditional media? It’s no secret that the newspaper industry is suffering, but does that indicate that doom is coming to all other traditional media outlets? Social media expert Chris Brogan does not believe traditional media will go away but sees social and traditional media will work together in the future.
