Setting up Lumber Database for Sister

Okay, got it set up preliminarily:
http://lumberdatabasedirectory.kenax.net/
That’s the new subdomain, designed with the keywords, and the WP page will be:
http://lumberdatabasedirectory.kenax.net/WP/

Let’s talk about the latter for the moment:
– tell me what wording you want, such as what to replace “old reports” with
– I can remove the Polls on the left hand side, or you can replace them with your own poll(s). Let me know the details/questions.
– essentially anything can be put on the left and right sides, such as your logo/pic/link/flash etc. This will appear on all the pages that are created.
– the title of the first page I uploaded (the Word files I sent you, cleaned version) is drawn from common keywords found in the text. I use software to show me the most frequently used keywords, then I pick out some and use them for the Title, Description and Keywords. If you click on the title it will take you to the permanent page, and you can see that the address of the page uses the date and keywords of the title. This maximises the keyword effect. Otherwise, the main entry page (http://lumberdatabasedirectory.kenax.net/WP/) works like a blog roll, always displaying the last added articles.
– the links on the left obviously need to be changed. Let me know what you want me to link to.
– the linkouts from within the text also need to be changed. For now I’m using those from my site that I showed you, simply because I copied that WP to here. The format of these links should be like:

French, online, translator, http://001yourtranslationservice.com/me/CV/French-to-english-translator.php
Czech, http://001yourtranslationservice.com/me/CV/czech-to-english-translator.html

or as explained in the instructions:

Here you can enter manually the extra keywords you want to automaticaly link. Use comma to seperate keywords and add target url at the end. Use a new line for new url and set of keywords. You can have these keywords link to any url, not only your site.

Example:
vladimir prelovac, http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir
cars, car, autos, auto, http://mycarblog.com/

So you can see that you can also use phrases. Therefore, if you have an important page about shingles, then you would want to point to it every time “shingle” or “shingles” is mentioned (or other related words or phrases, always separated by a comma).

– the calendar doesn’t have to be there and I just added it for pretty effect. You can put pictures or whatever you want in these strips, possibly colour the background as you have on your pages, or perhaps you could find your own plugins you want to try
– the pictures at the top header are automatically rotating, but if you prefer we could probably remove all of them and replace them with only one – the header you have on your main pages. But personally I think the variety makes things more interesting.
– what do you want for the Category names? For now I created Report 01 and I think there should be a maximum of lets say 20 pages added per category. This all depends on how much text you have to add. Do you have more than 350,000 words you can think of adding? For example, if only this 350,000 and you don’t want to add your old emails, for example, since each post/article is about 2,000 words, that makes a total of 175 articles. If we have a total of 10 categories it would make it less than 20 (17.5) articles per category. This means there would eventually be 10 category links on each page, plus whatever number of links we decide on in the left hand side, plus the links out from within the text. You don’t want too many linkouts from each page, which is why I like to shoot for a total of ten categories. But if you find more text in the future, we could add the number of articles per category (I’m shooting for 40 for mine, because I’ve got a shitload of text).
– below is Views, which shows the number of views per each page. Probably bullshit but the good thing is that this is dynamic and always changing, so it will make every page change over time and appear fresh and sexy in the eyes of google.

Okay, so the basics are set up and now we need to:
– convert the PDF files to clean Word files so that I can upload them as new articles
– work on the main index page (http://lumberdatabasedirectory.kenax.net/). What do you want to do with the text and pictures you sent me before all the pdfs? You want to use that for the main entry page? Perhaps at the bottom or something, but the top should introduce the database and what its all about (demo version, if they want to see the full version they need to write to you etc.). You want to write that or should I? This first page should be real juicy with all the important keywords, so once the top introduction part of the page is written, you can flood the rest of the page with keyword blabbery. Up to around 2,500 words would be good. Once that is set up I’ll move the demodbase there or at least link to it and then we can publish the page and see how long it takes to start getting hits etc.

Exciting times!

———————-

Okay, then I suggest you download the software: PDF Transformer from Adobe or Abby or something. Get the PC version in case there is a MAC version, so that the licence will work. I pretty sure you have a certain number of free trials, so once you succeed with a few pages I can send you activation code. For this type of text I’d suggest deselecting pictures and choose text flow. Then make sure the language is English and that’s it. Perhaps the fastest approach is to right click on the file and choose Custom Transform. Once you got the settings right then press the Create Word file button on the top right.

Sure, every Monday or whatever. Just think how much text you have (do you have more than this?) and how long you spread it out. If you start saving keyword rich emails or something then we can continue with that once this text runs out. Or create a separate category for Previous Correspondence or something. If you add some pages every week forever, google will only like it.

I’d suggest we set up the structure first and leave the first page I uploaded. Wait till google indexes it (which will be pretty quick), and then start adding the other pages to keep it sexy.

From what I quickly read from your other letters you said you would focus on the first page? You could probably easily go to 4,000 words if you like. Each page will point to the main entry page and you should as well (if people visiting your site want to see a demo version etc.), so everything will be well supported. I’ll help you tweak it too. Within a year I guess you’ll be stomping all over the internet. Then there is other important work that can be done but we can discuss that later. I think if we divide up the tasks like this it will be good, since we can both benefit. Lookin good!

Once we set up this structure I would only have to copy/paste from the Word files  into WP and everything else would be automatic. Since there would be about 150  pages I could upload maybe 3 every time the site gets indexed, which is about  once every two or three days, so it would take roughly half a year to upload it all.  Or I could upload more pages each time and speed up the process. I’m not certain  which is better, but my guess is that its more organic to spread it out, as google  will see it as a site which continually gets updated with new articles. Just a guess. 

I see you got Ward’s editorial in there too, that’s good. No wonder the word count was so high!

I can for sure do that grunty work on my PC once you send me the software. I guess I could feed you several issues at a time or something? If you want to upload three at at time I can make sure I have always sent you enough to keep you going, like if I send them to you in blocks of say 25 you’d have a week’s worth to do.

I could make this a weekend job, or Monday mornings when I’m usually not that busy.

> Did I already send you the PDF Transformer software?

Nope, you didn’t.

Upload Text and Links to Pages for Google Content

so your PIN is 26926 (yiepeeeee) what exactly is this for? I might need your help or an advice in marketing strategies… talking about getting higher and higher on search engine ranking. I think this is what you like to do, right? So when someone is looking for a chiropractor and types into eg. google search engine “chiropractor West LA” or “West Los Angeles” (area where my boyfriend’s chiro practice is located)what do we need to do for him to be the first option or choice for the patient? Do you know of yelp? I need to look into this. I mean how to be the first one when someone searches something particular such as chiropractor and West LA since there are tons of chiropractors (almost one on each corner!!! just like hospody v Praze, hahahaha). Any suggestions?

heydydo, thanks a bunch for the pin and I’ll activate it within a couple of days.

A few years ago you asked me about getting up in google and I wrote you a long explanation. Do you not have that letter anymore? Otherwise I can dig up some letters I wrote to others, or maybe even find the one I wrote to you before. Or I can nurse someone through the occasional step. Does your husband have a website and who is in charge of making changes to it?

For the google postcard thing you need to set yourself up an account with google (such as gmail), and then go to google places. Generally hooking up google places to your website helps with the rankings, and then you show on google’s local results. So, if someone close to where your husband’s office is does a search for “LA chiropracter”, his place will show up in the search results. It’s those little balloons with letters in them, hovering over a google map of the area. Try doing a search yourself to see the competition. His balloon would be one of those with the postcard thing. I believe each address can hook up to as many as 10 websites. k

was trying to figure out how to be notified when someone submits an article to my wordpress free article submission pages and stumbled on the following:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Update_Services

Thought it might interest you, as you once stated you wanted others to be notified whenever you update your site with new content. not sure how you could apply this to static html pages, but perhaps its possible. I’ve started setting up WP to replace some of my html pages, to speed up the process. For example, I save a lot of my email correspondence with my translators and then upload that to webpages, as google likes new content to be regularly added. Since we often mention the word “translation” etc., and overall the text is organic, it can only be good. But I have SO much text to add I have simply been lacking the time to craft together the html webpages. But with wp I can now just quickly copy/paste the text, like I’m adding a blog entry, and everything else is automatic. It’s like a template. Check out what I’ve accomplished so far at:

http://001yourtranslationservice.com/WP/project-management/

Been adding various plugins, such as one which will link from certain keywords to the webpages of my choice. Now the process is really quick and you might consider the same for your site if you need to add a lot of text on a regular basis and lack the time to fiddle with your dreamweaver.

After the last big project, when several project managers were communicating with all the translators through my online systems, I simply downloaded all the correspondence and now have more than 200 pages I could add in this way. So I upload about five every couple of days and will slowly catch up to the backlog of text I’ve been accumulating over the years and hadn’t had time to convert to html.

Anyway, just thought I’d mention.

> what you think about this email?

This is all about seo dude, and I can ramble on this forever, but I’ll try to cut it short to the absolute basics.

Hi – I`m Claire Scott from 121carhire.com. We`re one of the largest car hire comparators covering 15,000 depots worldwide. Our management team have asked me to contact partners that may complement our site and extremebulgaria.com seems ideal. We can either:- 1) Exchange links with you (we don`t have a links page – we link from relevant content pages on 121carhire.com which we will explain when you reply).

Link exchange is good because the more links to your site, the higher the traffic, and the higher you will be on google. Since you are already number one for “Extreme Sports Bulgaria”, then you can start linking to you from different text, such as “Paragliding inBulgaria” etc. You can create a partner page to link out to others. For this I created an entirely different domain kenax.net. Best is if the links to you are from pages or domains which have the same theme (sports, paragliding etc.).

 – OR – 2) Our team have been working hard creating content on our own site and we wondered if you would be interested in some unique, free of charge content written for you to publish on extremebulgaria.com. Our editors cover a huge range of subjects and can quickly agree a subject with you and write specifically for you – you will have full editorial control and it will definitely NOT be a sales pitch for us! All we would ask is that you allow us to include one simple text link back to 121carhire.com towards the end of the content which will hopefully be found by the search engines in the longer term – which is how we would benefit.

This can be good too, since google likes “fresh and sexy” sites which are constantly updated with new content and pages. But again, best is if the content is the same as your theme.

For this purpose I created the site:

http://001yourtranslationservice.com/wordpress/

so that people could upload the articles themselves without bothering me. Each page they upload will always have important links back to my important pages as well.

Recently I also created

http://001yourtranslationservice.com/WP/project-management/

where I upload email correspondence with my translators. I must have about 500 pages like that now and will slowly be uploading them. Google cannot tell that it is not interesting material to read, but all our correspondence concerns translations, so I am only helping my overall site and important pages by always linking back to my important pages. It is like a blog, so all I have to do is copy/paste the text, and everything, with links, is created automatically.

So, should I bring some garlic or something tonight for superpopcorn, or will you dudes still be fasting?

———————-

have to send from my computer email because Hotmail is being an asshole. Apart from that, this is so exciting!! the password to extract data from the .pdfs is mad7SONS if you can’t get into the really old ones then I don’t know the password because that would have been someone who worked there that I never met. No matter, you have oodles of files from let’s say 2002 to 2007! the market comment should flow as one long text block taking all of Page 8. if you think you will need 2008 to 2010 then that might be more complicated because the market comments are scattered all over six pages, in individual text blocks. lalalal, excited.

okay, just converted the first file and attached. There are two formats and I would suggest Text Flow Without Pictures (not the file name ending with 1), after which I manually erased the table figures and saved it as the _cleaned file. That works out to about 2,300 words, which is a nice size for SEO purposes. But it was a bit much and slow for my little laptop and I’d like to suggest instead to set everything up for you. I assume it will go much faster for you on your powerful computer. You could have it working on your PC while you continue to work on your Mac. Did I already send you the PDF Transformer software? Of what you sent me that should add up to 350,000 words total, which should be a sufficiently juicy number to grab all the keywords and be at the top of google in everything. Then you could consider expanding your site to include an input form so that US and other country mills etc. could add their own information. If you do start doing that, the search forms should probably be changed to operate on a country basis, otherwise the dropdown list would be excessively long.

Then we’d need to strategise a bit:

1) as I have mine set up, on the left hand side would be the important links (can be the left or right side). They would appear like that on each of the individual pages and would link to the most important pages you want to promote.

2) from within the text, you would choose keywords to link out from, like you see on my pages, and they should link to important articles. Perhaps you have a juicy article about shingles, so you would link to it from the word shingles. There is a WP plugin for this so this process is automated.

Once we set up this structure I would only have to copy/paste from the Word files into WP and everything else would be automatic. Since there would be about 150 pages I could upload maybe 3 every time the site gets indexed, which is about once every two or three days, so it would take roughly half a year to upload it all. Or I could upload more pages each time and speed up the process. I’m not certain which is better, but my guess is that its more organic to spread it out, as google will see it as a site which continually gets updated with new articles. Just a guess.

Okay, I’ll start setting it up on my end. If I eventually change the form page to get rid of the ugly text boxes and change the formatting, you can take that and apply it to yours. Need to make it look prettier if I want to win myself some new customers. k

Page Style Text in Pictures and Pages

I’m not sure what to do with the styles… Let’s leave it like that for now.

What is going on with the homepage? I guess you changed the website to http://sweetmilk.cz/ and forgot to tell me? 🙂

I was looking at /test/ and didn’t have any en/cz… It seems to work well under /W?/

A couple of things though:

– Can you make the cz / en bigger?

– There are only 4 pages in the Cz version. Why?

We will send you the new header today.

Yes, I moved it to W because we were having that discussion about test and you did not respond, so I went ahead and made an executive decision. As per the weblinks I sent you moving WP can be problematic and I did not want to deal with glitches later. I chose only one letter (symbolising WordPress) to limit any SEO effect.

Yah, forgot to mention it, sorry.

I don’t know why there are only four pages in Czech but noticed it this morning. Perhaps it happened when I pressed Reset on the xlanguages last night, when the server was going berzerk and I didn’t know what was happening. I’m hoping that once we add content they will return, otherwise I will have to resolve it somehow. I’m blaming this one on the server.

Okay, will make a bit bigger. k

——————————–

heydydogal,

just got an idea for your doggie site. I’m putting together a site for a friend of mine and think it could become regular work for me. At first I thought it was sorta a dorky idea but now I see the sound logic behind it, and that it can actually be pretty useful. I gather you’ve heard of WordPress? Well its free blog software and many people develop Themes for it for free. So essentially different looks and feel. The difficult thing is to set it up (that’s me), but once done then its really easy for the owner to add pages and upload pictures etc. It’s not done yet but you’ll see the idea: http://sweetmilk.cz/

Check out the Product Description page. The customer sent me a Word file with text, I simply copy/pasted it into the page (while in Administration mode), and it popped out nicely formatted automatically. I just need to make a few more tweaks to change the headings etc., and all other pages will look the same. It’s even got a multiple language plugin. So, yes, a bit more work for me to set up, but once done then you guys can add your own pages and pictures etc., and zero maintenance for me. The only thing is that your server needs to be able to support php, but pretty well every server should allow that nowadays. If not you guys can transfer your site to mine for free, but you’d have to pay for your own domain (about 10 bucks a year).

That’s it!

——————————–

okey doke Sasa. Right now I’m working on another project and tomorrow I drive to another town, so I can start on this tomorrow eveningish. Just lettinyakno. k

 heh heh, just saw a preview of the pics. Like I told Fernando, funny that Czechs can spend money on billboards and fancy websites, but the English text is shite and the girls didn’t even seem to bother to wash their hair! Will get to this asap.

This pix r nightmare… I feel sick when I have to retouch this ugly blond teethed mum.. BUT, my predisposed friend, you shouldn´t forget this client is Dominican

In the page Product Description there is a section Wearing Instructions with four steps – here you will put 4 photos named instruction1 – 4. There are four numbered instructions pictures plus one unnumbered one. – this unnumbered is folding instructions There is also a Folding Instructions title beneath that section but which does not have any text at the moment. – just put the picture. For the remaining pics do I just throw them into the Pick Your Style page? – yes The text is also strangely spaced a bit. Want me to make the spacing a bit smaller? – make it look nice 🙂 I gather I should resize the pics and make them smaller byte size for the web? – I did make all the pix 800 x 600, u can make them even smaller. zdarec, saša

maybe the sizes were 800×600 or whatever, but many of them were more than 300kb, which is really big and slow for many people. I can reduce it to about 50kb while keeping the picture quality pretty well the same. That way the page with pictures loads much faster. People are too impatient these days and simply may not want to wait if it takes too long.

Another question: your customer wanted the Product Descriptions page broken up into different sub-pages, but F said that it did not pay enough for this extra work. Perhaps I could at least offer to put links at the top of the page, like a table of contents, where each link zips to that part of the page? k

——————————–

okay, I chmoded the folder to 777 and it worked, but when I finished bumbling around with their slow Flash uploader I noticed that it added something to the html view, which I altered and ended up with

<img style=”padding-top:15px; padding-bottom:10px;” src=”http://sweetmilk.cz/W/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/instruction4.jpg” alt=”instruction4″ title=”instruction4″ /

In that case, rather than bumble around with the Flash uploader, I would suggest you simply just upload your pics by ftp into the relevant folder (or name your own) and then just copy paste the above script where you want, changing the file names too. Much much faster, plus you can gain better control through the style thing I added. Just a suggestion!

——————————–

okay, think I’m done with the latest chores:

– lowered the spacing between characters and bullets to make it look nicer

– defined the h3 heading I used in the Products Description page.

– in the future they just need to surround titles with the standard <h3 </h3 while in the html window and the same style should apply.

– in the css file I marked all my changes with << and put comments so you or your customer can easily refer to them in the future (for example if they want to change the h3 style, or add another heading style)

One potential point: for the Pick Your Style page I used the alt/title tags as Fabric 1 etc. I presume useful if a customer wants to order some fabric. No problem to place some text above it and which defines it, perhaps using h4 and styling it correctly.

If they want different Alt tags for the Czech version just tell me what to use (Textil 1?). I found that when I switched to Czech the pictures didn’t reload but just stayed (quick change). Changing the Alt tags might force it to reload, but I guess it doesn’t matter cause the surfer will probably get to that page from within some other Czech text page, in which case the pics would have to completely load anyway.

Awaiting the next task! p
