    SEO and expired domains

    'When the IP address changes, SEO experts claim that Google temporarily “punishes” the domain by dropping it in the rankings.' Stopped reading right there.

    Any Devs on here?

    Compatibility with other recently upgraded plug-ins or conflict with rules in a custom functions file (if there is one)? A simple disable/enable process will usually flush out the culprit.

    Secondhand Car Market Collapse?

    People not wanting to use public transport has led to a surge in demand for second hand cars. There is also a lot of free money sloshing around, hence demand for M5s and such going up, not down. Re your midlife crisis. People who care what car you drive are generally not worth bothering with.

    Are DIY Web Builders killing SME Web Designers?

    There are many more opportunities available as an alternative to providing web design services to people who have little or no budget and often no idea what they actually want. How anyone made a living doing this is beyond me?

    Are DIY Web Builders killing SME Web Designers?

    Little point having a contact form on a Spanish website, even if it works you wont get a response.

    SEO - 301 Redirect Question (High Ranking Domains)

    Bear in mind a recently dropped domain may have links that still bring in real traffic. The length of time a domain has been inactive will obviously have a bearing. As a rule of thumb though, (A) exact same content on the same domain is lot more likely to rank than if it's (B) redirected to...

    cloudflare.com

    Cloudflare default options may result in a very slight improvement but to get the best out of it takes a bit of adjustment, paying $20 for the pro version also opens up a few extra options including on the fly image conversion and a very good web application firewall. As mentioned above though...

    Who's Holding BTC?

    It doesn't matter if it's a bubble where people end up selling for more than they paid. Same with Gold, yes it has a base value and will never go down to zero but you can still lose money by getting the timing wrong. I don't invest in crypto but each to his own.

    Wayback machine Rebuilds

    Since your analogy involves becoming a builder, possibly not?

    Not disagreeing with this, it is.

    Wayback machine Rebuilds

    No, it doesn't give someone a legitimate right. But, it's going to happen and, personally, I have bigger issues to get worked up about. At the end of the day, if someone doesn't want their content stolen then it's up to them to police this - just as if the original site was still live. Maybe...

    Wayback machine Rebuilds

    That's interesting although I'd be careful of broadcasting your game that's going to attract a copy-cat element.

    Wayback machine Rebuilds

    The fact that the coyright owner has let the domain lapse and not bothered to clean up any trace suggests that any subsequent claims are going to be few and far between?

    Wayback machine Rebuilds

    Did the content owners give permission for archive.org to copy their work, or even know such an organisation exists? Yes, technically you may be using someone else's work but by allowing the domain to drop and allowing the content to be hosted by a third party the owner has been somewhat...

    Wordpress web host

    I think this is the problem with a lot of hosts, it can be the luck of the draw who you get to deal with. I had a few experiences with 20i where I'd say the support was pretty good but, unfortunately for me, I also had one that was completely incompetent and another who didn't understand the...

    Wordpress web host

    Just for balance, 20i gave me 12 months free hosting after one mess up. The next one was too much to bear. Hope this isn't taken the wrong way?

    Online Business Bank Accounts

    I wouldn't lose sleep over being locked out of a Natwest app.

    Online Business Bank Accounts

    I have experience of being locked out of an app based account. I understand not everyone wants to hear that, but it's fair to point this out. If it's taken a personal grievance I apologise for that. I hope you have a happy experience and, in all likelihood, you will.

    Wordpress web host

    For multiple sites: Important ones, Kinsta which isn't cheap but there is a reason for this. Less important, development etc, Siteground has proven to be (for me) the most reliable cheap host with knowledgeable support and some nifty optimisation add ons. It is cheap for a reason though so...
