  • SEO Footprints
    SEO Footprints Brought to you by: Jason Rushton Copyright 2013 Online - M a r k e t i n g - T o o l s . c o m Page 1 Use these “Footprints” with your niche specific keywords to find Backlink sources. Some of the footprints below have already been formed into ready made search queries. TIP* If you find a footprint that returns the results you are looking for, there is no need to use the rest in that section. For example if I am looking for wordpress sites that allow comments and the search query “powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” returns lots of results there is no need to use all of the others that target wordpress sites as a lot of them will produce similar results. I would use one or two from each section. You can try them out and when you find one you like add it to your own list of favourites. Blogs “article directory powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “blog powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “blogs powered by typepad” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “YOURYOUR KEYWORDS” inurl:”trackback powered by wordpress” “powered by blogengine net 1.5.0.7” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “powered by blogengine.net” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “powered by blogengine.net add comment” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “powered by typepad” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “powered by wordpress review theme” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “proudly powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” “remove powered by wordpress” “YOUR YOUR KEYWORDS” Copyright 2013 Online - M a r k e t i n g - T o o l s .

  • Phpbb to Vbulletin Converter Download
    phpbb to vbulletin converter download phpbb or vBulletin? When I started up my site, I obviously installed a phpBB2 forum, which I then saw as a very powerful solution compared to the other free forums. I was happy with the installation for a good while, installing more MODifications and styles as I went: you wouldn't believe how much time I spent on it. Suddenly, at the beginning of this month, my site saw a pretty big jump in traffic. Forum user count went from 33 to 177 in just 3 weeks! Many of these users acually post frequently, and since I put up some google ads on one of my other sites, I decided to try out vBulletin, thinking it had some better moderation and profile features in excange for speed, style, and easy of use. Well, I finally decided to buy it one day: a perpetual license for $160, and I can say I am a bit more more than very pleased :lol:! The backend is huge, yes, but everything is nicely organized and virtually any aspect of the board can be modified. There are endless options compared to phpBB2, and I am very happy with my switch. vB is also pretty fast and easy to use regardless of the features. So basically, I find vBulletin to be the best forum solution, far better than IPB as well. Also, the conversion went very smoothly, and you can see my wonderful new forum at http://themotec.com/Forum. The phpBB team is currently working on phpBB3, which will be a much more easy-to-use version of, basically, vBulletin, with some of the very detailed features not available, and with a completely different style.

  • Appendix a the Ten Commandments for Websites
    Appendix A The Ten Commandments for Websites Welcome to the appendixes! At this stage in your learning, you should have all the basic skills you require to build a high-quality website with insightful consideration given to aspects such as accessibility, search engine optimization, usability, and all the other concepts that web designers and developers think about on a daily basis. Hopefully with all the different elements covered in this book, you now have a solid understanding as to what goes into building a website (much more than code!). The main thing you should take from this book is that you don’t need to be an expert at everything but ensuring that you take the time to notice what’s out there and deciding what will best help your site are among the most important elements of the process. As you leave this book and go on to updating your website over time and perhaps learning new skills, always remember to be brave, take risks (through trial and error), and never feel that things are getting too hard. If you choose to learn skills that were only briefly mentioned in this book, like scripting, or to get involved in using content management systems and web software, go at a pace that you feel comfortable with. With that in mind, let’s go over the 10 most important messages I would personally recommend. After that, I’ll give you some useful resources like important websites for people learning to create for the Internet and handy software. Advice is something many professional designers and developers give out in spades after learning some harsh lessons from what their own bitter experiences.

  • Locating Exploits and Finding Targets
    452_Google_2e_06.qxd 10/5/07 12:52 PM Page 223 Chapter 6 Locating Exploits and Finding Targets Solutions in this chapter: ■ Locating Exploit Code ■ Locating Vulnerable Targets ■ Links to Sites Summary Solutions Fast Track Frequently Asked Questions 223 452_Google_2e_06.qxd 10/5/07 12:52 PM Page 224 224 Chapter 6 • Locating Exploits and Finding Targets Introduction Exploits, are tools of the hacker trade. Designed to penetrate a target, most hackers have many different exploits at their disposal. Some exploits, termed zero day or 0day, remain underground for some period of time, eventually becoming public, posted to newsgroups or Web sites for the world to share. With so many Web sites dedicated to the distribution of exploit code, it’s fairly simple to harness the power of Google to locate these tools. It can be a slightly more difficult exercise to locate potential targets, even though many modern Web application security advisories include a Google search designed to locate potential targets. In this chapter we’ll explore methods of locating exploit code and potentially vulnerable targets.These are not strictly “dark side” exercises, since security professionals often use public exploit code during a vulnerability assessment. However, only black hats use those tools against systems without prior consent. Locating Exploit Code Untold hundreds and thousands of Web sites are dedicated to providing exploits to the gen- eral public. Black hats generally provide exploits to aid fellow black hats in the hacking community.White hats provide exploits as a way of eliminating false positives from auto- mated tools during an assessment. Simple searches such as remote exploit and vulnerable exploit locate exploit sites by focusing on common lingo used by the security community.

  • Releasing Tools for International Disease Surveillance As Open-Source Software: a Case Study
    Releasing Tools for International Disease Surveillance as Open-Source Software: A Case Study Raj J. Ashar ince the development of tools for the Suite for Automated Global Electronic bioSurveillance (SAGES) began in 2008, the SAGES team and sponsor have envisioned the eventual release of these tools as open-source software to the global public health and technology communities. Open- source software allows members of the public to study, customize, and operate their own local copies of the software and source code, often without monetary fees. As such, releasing SAGES as open-source software assures prospective users that they retain complete control over the health data collected by SAGES-based systems, and aligns well with the model of self-sustainability intended for the operation of SAGES systems in resource-limited settings. Preparing two SAGES tools, OpenESSENCE and SAGES Mobile, for release as open-source software projects entailed a multifaceted, months-long effort that spanned policy, technical, and community considerations. This article describes the issues, trade-offs, and decisions that were addressed leading up to the successful open-source release of OpenESSENCE and SAGES Mobile in June 2013. The aim of this case study is to inform future Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) and external efforts to release open-source software. INTRODUCTION Open-source software follows a design methodology ered a trade secret and is often unavailable to the public. that makes software source code available to members The transparency afforded by open-source software can of the public for usage, modification, reproduction, and empower end users in several ways.
