WebProWorld Members,

Thought I would share something kinda funny I saw in the Breakroom today. It's a mind and body test. Yes, I sat at my desk and tried it about three times, and failed every time. Can anyone pass it? I always find those things interesting. If you see any, send 'em my way. :)

Our featured post today comes from tarzan2. He is thinking about running several domains from a single hosting account. He read that it is recommended to set up a robots.txt file to keep the spiders from lumping all domains in the hosting account into one. He also read that you should create a .htaccess file in the root directory of the hosting account to sort out what pages to display when a certain URL is specified. Read all of the post and see if you can help! Click here!

As for the remaining posts, the first ask about page rank and domain age. The second has some questions about affiliate marketing. The third is having problems with products showing on his site.

Multiple Domains On One Hosting Account

Multiple Domains On One Hosting Account
I know there are several of you that are running several domains from a single hosting account, and I am thinking about doing the same. I have spent the last 2 days reading and reading, and I see that it is recommended to set up a robots.txt file to keep the spiders from lumping all domains in the hosting account into one.

I don't understand that thought... Don't the spiders follow links? If there are no links between the different domain names, then they stop spidering when they have finished spidering the one domain that they came in on. Is that not so? Do they actually go into the site directory itself and root around looking for all pages within a hosting account? If that is the case, then how do you tell a spider to only look at the one section (domain name) and then at the same time have them spider all your other domain 'sections' because you want those included in the search engines as well? I'm confused big time.

All the stuff I have been reading also suggests that you create a .htaccess file in the root directory of the hosting account to sort out what pages to display when a certain URL is specified. My host has what they call a domain pointing tool that will send visitors to the appropriate folder of your account depending on which domain name was typed in the browser. I imagine this is done by that very same .htacces file, so in essence, there already exists such a file and to create another would likely be suicide. I'm sure this file could also be edited, but I understand that certain commands in that file need to be in a particular order, and if I mess that up, I'm in trouble again!

Site for Review http://www.scores4u.com/

Last year I opened the site http://www.scores4u.com. I'm still tweaking with validation but that I can manage on my own: what I hope to have from you are comments about its usability and how I could improve it and if you have any suggestions about new functionalities you'd like to see, more sports / championships / cups / tournaments. Thank you in advance for any honest comment.

Page Rank Vs Age of Domain

Recently, I got a project which had, a PR-5, with least traffic.

I want to ask regarding the same, - "Wether this website is ranking only because of it's domain age, which is 11years?" or there is some other thing also which I am not able to find out.

Please do suggest.

.htaccess Error?? - Products Not Showing Up!

I just uploaded a .htaccess file to my clients site - www.westerndrugmedical.com, and it somehow completely wrecked the site. I removed the .htaccess file, and it's still all messed up.

I asked one of my web design partners about it, and he suggested that they are using a mod-rewrite from within the site.

I've got all of the database information, and I think it's possible to manually rewrite all of the product and category names, but I'd love some help from the community in fixing it up.
