We don't have an answer, as said: We don't think GemCSS is the only CMS in this world, many are totally free but GemCSS it's not. You can choose. The only thing that we can say is that since Jan 2009 our clients have reached great results, we maintained our promise.

Like the name says, a Content Management System, isn't more than a software able to dynamically create the webpages we usually read while online. GemCSS it's not the first and it won't be the last of a long CMS series but, differently from the others that are proposed like "it do everything" or simply as blogging platform, GemCSS is proposed as "modular". It was not meant to have a pre defined function and it's easibily adaptable and expandeable following requestes. Coded entirely in PHP, it work along with a MySQL database for the content management and other functions. It's not a derivate software and so we can guarantee a total compatibility with every extra module because coded using the same functionality scheme of GemCSS. In poor words we will release only native GemCSS modules, following just your needing. Actually developed functionalities allow to create news, menus, links and much more. It's ideal to manage a blog, e commerce portals with PayPal, catalogs, surveys, institutional websites and so on. Other than basic functionalities we included an RSS 2.0 feed generator, a Google and Visual Site map Generator, a modular search engine and a Contact Form. We include also the pouplar TinyMCE wysiwyg editor and Lightbox for image management. Do you want to know more?

It's true, so here some facts: 1 Big names, like Google, Facebook, LinkedIn and others doesn't need to be optimized at all. They are already famous especially using the classic word of mouth advertisement. So, their websites are designed to appear cool, most of them neither pass a validation test but they are ndeg;1. Anyway: Don't get discouraged. 2 Most of the search engines, especially Google, pay attention to many factors when indexing: You can have a website totally SEF and with 100% of SEO score but if you don't have quality backlinks you are not going so far. 3 Keywords are abused: Spammer webmasters made everything to let think at search engines that the lt;metagt; keywords are useless, unless the used keys are not strictly related to your content. Again, many big websites doesn't use keywords but you, small one, try to use good keywords and related to your contents. Not more than 20, but 10 is better. So, don't get discouraged, the world of internet is Wild but you can do it. It's not so hard, you just need to work about it a bit more. http://yogem.com/read-some-facts-about-the-world-of-seo http://yogem.com/read-some-facts-about-the-world-of-seo Wed, 10 Mar 10 04:19:01 +0000 Our SEO Score tool will verify many lt;metagt; tags of your website also the keywords one. Our SEO Score Tool give +5 points for the presence of keywords meta tag. There are many people who say to "don't insert the keywords tag into a page", we say that is wrong. Google don't pay attention to keywords: True (in part, we suppose), but Google is not the only Search Engine of this world. Yahoo, MSN and others pay attention to the meta tag keywords and, trust us, Google is not the only used search engine. http://yogem.com/read-seo-and-keywords http://yogem.com/read-seo-and-keywords Wed, 10 Mar 10 09:06:08 +0000 I was 12 when I started coding simple programs in GW BASIC and I used to ask to my "mentore" many informations. Most of the time, he was so bored while I was asking a lot of things. He used to ask me: "If you know the answer, why questions?". Yes, by making questions it was clear I already had the answer. Now, if you are here I suppose that you want also some confirmations, right? Yes, using a bit of logic you will understand many things and if you are here searching for ideas, or just some advices... welcome! Here the YoGem SEO Tips: First of all, a good content is important and the key for a perfect optimization. Must be unique, well written and related to your keywords. Did I mentioned that must be also a quality one? And don't try to repeat many times a keyword in your content, it must be natural. Mind that if a search engine will start to think that you are forcing a keyword, it will also start to act negatively on you. JavaScript Drop Down Menus and Flash Animations: Nice things? Well, try at least to provide a textual alternative of your shiny drop down menu or to your flash animation: Search Engines pay attention ONLY to text. Really, if you are not a big name like Google, Facebook and others, don't use AJAX, Flash and other kind of scripts to show content on your site. They don't link exactly to a real page! They can show many contents in the same page! Play well with links! Try to repeat the most important word, for example: if your website is YoGem, instead of creating the classic "Read about Us", use an intelligent "Read about YoGem Hosting". WWW or NOT pay attention to have the correct Html Header Response. Search Engines love this kind of statuses: 200, 301/302. In poor words you must allow the search engines to understand that http://www.domain.tld belongs to http://domain.tld and vice versa. How old is your website? How many days (months and I hope not years) is that you are not updating it? Bad... try to add... a Blog! Or open a Twitter account and link it in your website! Try to be friend (or enemy) of your visitors, be present, be fresh, be someone that people will see always in action! It help, really! In many sites there's a big buzz with PageRank but stop... PageRank it's not so importand, also Google's Coders Team asked a lot of times "Why people are obsessed by PageRank?" Lately was also removed from the Google Webmaster Suite... guess why!? Don't be exagerated with the keywords. Keywords must be related to the contents of your website, can be a single word or also phrases: Do everything to have useful keywords, maybe related, for example, to your links. Is your site showing a page name like: ?this=willmakeonly=agreat=confusionoh=mygod Try to be SEF, Search Engine Friendly there are many way to show a nice link instead of using programming language links! Ask us or your SEO consultant or web designer. Are you planning to have an incredible number of back links? Ok, stop: Think well, do you want an infinite list of trash back links or quality ones? Many directories and back link websites are totally ignored by search engines. Someone links you? Return the favor: Link it too. Do you show a lot of images? How many of them have a good caption? (alt and title metas) Pay attention, remember what I said: search engines likes text; a photo without a description is the same as nothing and remember that an image must be related with the surrounding text! Regarding images, in the alt or title tag, if possible, add the words photo, foto, fotografia, or every word in your language that recall a photo. Many people search for "photo of subject" not only for "subject". Ok, for the moment I stop here... I hope you will find this useful and remember, if you will need help, let me know! I will try to help you all. http://yogem.com/read-seo-tips http://yogem.com/read-seo-tips Wed, 10 Mar 10 09:32:50 +0000 Someone asked: What about PageRank?Don't pay attention to your PageRank. Yes, you don't need to pay attention on it, especially if your website is new.So what to do to advertise? Stay away from people who sell optimization, voodoo dolls, don't buy books, don't buy ad words... the best way to gain some popularity is free! Yes, totally free!Some years ago someone invented the internet directories where you can ask kindly to put a link to your website. Most of them are free (Example: DMOZ) some others are not, but you don't want to spend a buck, right? So listen to me: I am posting now a list of directories that are free. Submit your website and if they ask you a back link (sponsored inclusion) accept and publish it.Why choosing just the one I tell you? It's easy. They are old, famous and... ta da! They have more than 5 as PAGERANK! Yes... I know... I told you PageRank is dead so now... what?? Oh... well, they are old! And Google (and other search engine) still prefer to give importance to these directories because, old and because they have a good PageRank. So this is the fact: If you submit your website in a Class Z Directory (And you better wont submit there, are full of Viagra advertisement), Google won't take it in consideration and won't calculate any link as a valid back link. Now, if you submit your website in a valid directory, let's say from Class C to Class A, Google (as well as others, also if Yahoo prefer you to submit your website in it's directory, that's not free) will see your website included and will say "Oh well, this one is here, that's good. So let's help this one kicking some ranking positions!" Yes, with this simple trick your website will gain positions and it will be more likely to be found if someone search for the keys resembling your website! Here's the list! Have fun!

I don't know how's possible but since the Google's Makeover OpenDNS decide to block some google servers for Phishing. Now, seems that gstatic.com Registrar: MARKMONITOR INC.

I don't want to write a book about it but... how's possible that google get banned as phishing website??? Maybe someone will answer... The problem is that if I try to use google images I get empty thumbnails (that's weird) and if I try to open an image on Google Images all I get is the OpenDNS warning.
