FabioParticipant
Thanks Andrea for your reply.
What I mean is this:
Let's say tomorrow I create a deals site and I hire a freelancer to write down the latest deals, everyday. This guy will find the deals, will write them down... but how will he deep link to the product in question?If it were me to do it, I would log in to my shareasale account, get the deep link and insert it into the post/deal.
But I wouldn't allow freelancers to log into my shareasale account, and if I'd use a plugin that generates links automatically it wouldn't link to the specific product page I need to link to from the specific affiliate program I'm using.
Let's take a given deals site, like blackfriday. com for example (not my favourite but probably a good example).
These people have a staff of many employees and I don't think that everytime they need to put an affiliate link they call the business owner asking for his cj password to get the link... There must be some sort of script that does that.
Probably so expensive I would need to sell my house (if I had one) to buy it, but there must be something...I don't even know what to google for it...
FabioParticipanthmm...
FabioParticipantHmmm.... that's the thing, every time I talk to Summer they (he or she?) make me think...
When I was penalized, I managed to fix everything in a couple of months and I already felt it was a lifetime... and now you say you were penalized for two years!
It makes me think about how important it is to have your focus on more than one site.
If it were for me I would only focus on one website and make it grow and expand, but then if something like a penalization happens it's a mess. If you have other sites instead, you can still cope with it.
I was just thinking about this today, is it better to be a big fish in a small pond? or a few small fish in a huge pond?
Probably the second option is the safest, even though much more annoying I think...FabioParticipantThanks, that worked.
And how about rounding the corners of the thumbnail image?
Is that doable?Thanks
FabioFabioParticipanthmmm... I think I am exaggerating a little with this.
I am quite sure google said they would ignore them, but problem is that I was penalized once from Google and it still hurts a lot 🙂 so now I am very careful.
I guess I'll see what I can do, in the end it's not that urgent.
ThanksFabioParticipantHey Summer thanks,
honestly I did click your aff link, but their landing page is so terrible that I had no idea how to buy if I wanted to, neither I understood the price.As said since it's for an adult site, really the social sharing part of the equation is not very relevant, I don't know many people that share their adult stuff on facebook...
Anyways, I would need to make sure we can disable the rich snippets just to be on the safe side. I guess I'm asking something too simple to be profitable for developer to design...
FabioParticipantThanks but that hr looks terrible tough.
January 1, 2014 at 5:57 pm in reply to: Is it necessary to always be on the latest version of WP and Genesis? #82576FabioParticipantThanks Summer,
yeah that's right, I have also had troubles in the past especially from WP3.3 to 3.5. I remember that my Visual editor disappeared and I wasn't able to upload media files...Then there was another problem with a plugin update, I don't remember what exactly... this is why I always think 10 times before updating.
Yesterday I have updated to WP3.8 and everything seems to work fine, but generally speaking how do I find out if the plugin/WP upgrade is to fix a security risk? Where does it say that?
And also, having the latest WP version and an older plugin version does immediately mean that there is a "security risk"?Thanks,
hope your physical work went well 🙂January 1, 2014 at 1:52 am in reply to: Is it necessary to always be on the latest version of WP and Genesis? #82448FabioParticipantCool,
is the same thing true for plugins?
Do you always update to the latest version of each plugin you use?So basically between plugins and wordpress updates you are backing up and updating, backing up and updating, backing up and updating... at least twice a month (considering the average amount of update notices I get) per each website you have?
FabioParticipanthmmm, not much sense to me...
Thanks anyways, and have fun tomorrow then 🙂FabioParticipantJust a quick thought that came into my mind right now,
But if I hide jetpack from the menu can contributors still sneakily link it to their wordpress.com account from the other end??FabioParticipantOh wow,
that was easy 🙂
thanks man.Should I get worried this piece of code may need changes with wordpress/genesis upgrades?
Thanks again.
FabioFabioParticipantAh right, yeah I am not into that either (for now at least... you never know).
I also noticed that googleblog search was pretty funny 🙂 Geez... do they still have it?Anyways,
when do you think a network of subdomains would work better than a network of domains and viceversa?
This is very interesting as I do see lots of management/branding/ranking advantages in the subdomains route, but so I see them in the brand new domains route...I would like to hear your crazy thoughts about this. I'm looking for that bottom line.... you know?
FabioParticipantHmmm.... very interesting stuff to discover on the last day of the year...
I'm actually about to create a network myself and am thinking between the subdomain option and the "many domains" option.
Before starting this thread I was for the "many domains" one but now I don't know anymore.
Thing is that if my main domain will help the subdomains grow faster, why should I use a totally new domain and start from scratch? On the other hand I could also link my main domain to my the new domain and probably still help it grow.
I agree with you that having all subdomains under one brand would make my life easier at least in terms of branding, management etc...
Interesting decision to make 🙂
Anyways, what do you mean by "selling space on a Multisite setup"?
Thanks Summer and happy 2014 mate!
FabioParticipantHow do you make sure it doesn't become a PITA?
But why did you go the subdomain route and not the "a domain for each site" route?
Is it for SEO, brand or other?FabioParticipantThanks everybody for the answers.
I did suspect it mostly was for management and security reasons.I was also wondering in terms of SEO, shouldn't be a disadvantage to have separated subdomains for each section of the site?
What I mean is, if I have a 20years old authority site about gardening and publish an article about "how to grow veggies" from my main domain, I would expect it to rank higher or at least faster then if I create a new subdomain and publish it from there. Since the subdomain is supposed to be a brand new, virgin, no-one-cares-about site, I would expect it to take way longer to rank.
Unless the network of links between main site and subdomain gives it a very quick start which makes the article published on the subdomain rank as fast and as well as if it was published in the main domain.
Any idea?
@ Summer
"I’m also planning a small network of sites that will have separate subdomains for sections, because they will be vastly different sites, but all connected by a common main theme."Do you mean a network made of subdomains under the same domain? Or a network or different domains?
Thanks!

if I use the pagination, how do I change: 1, 2, 3... with 2013, 2014, 2015... etc?
And how do I display it at the beginning of the article instead than at the end?Thanks a lot!
I might actually go for this option, can't see any problem with having lots of content.
December 13, 2013 at 6:17 am in reply to: [Not important] – Optimize navigation per year in the long term? #78788FabioParticipantThanks
but why do you think it's better using separate posts if I have a lot of content?December 13, 2013 at 4:36 am in reply to: [Not important] – Optimize navigation per year in the long term? #78782FabioParticipantand also
how does google index multiple pages in a post?
does it index as separate webpages? -
