Matt Cutts WordCamp Transcript Part-8

Feedburner is another nice tool it will tell you where people are coming from, how many visitors you are getting, traffic data etc.

slide27

Ok I have 5 more minutes now let me tell you something which you probably should not do. ( screen shot here ) This is one email I got like in September 2008 be a Google millionaire wow, I have been with Google for 9 years I could filled up and bought their product and made cash if only I had known right. If something looks too good to be true it probably is.

Anyone heard of this Google money tree thing consumer court got about 478 complaints about them and about 460 has not been still responded to. So they claim you can make 107,000$ just doing searches in Google and yahoo.

slide28

This stuff is not endorsed by Google it’s incredibly spammy you join 3$ 78 cents to join and every month you are charged 75$ till you opt-out. That is how it works and that is how it usually goes on with these money tree systems. So don’t be stupid believing all these stuff. There are people who can even claim you can make 107,000$ by tying shoes. People are sometimes dumb they think it’s from Google because they use Google anabolic plans NO it’s not from Google don’t do these kind of stuff. One thing I always saw if you are blogger is, don’t spam. Don’t do things like paid posts it pisses off your users and it’s against Google guidelines and right on top of this slide it clearly says don’t advertise 3rd party sites for search engine ranking purposes.

slide29

One other important thing you need to know is keep you wordpress blog updated. We just don’t have time to show an example of this. American Nazi party, is anyone here a pro-nazi any big fans of the Nazis in here. I did think I am bit not a nazi fan myself. SO you see nice things on the American nazi party website you see these 88888888888888888 looks cool huh. See our site is better we have lots of eights but when you scroll down to the bottom of the page you see cialis and other links. What, the Nazis when did they start selling cialis. So now whom do you blame the Nazis or the hackers who added the cialis links on their site. I don’t know it’s not sure Ha ha. Yeah it happens so it’s better that you have good security yourself and prevent such kind of vulnerabilities on your website.

slide30

In particular there is this really cool site called save the internet they talk about net neutrality and all sort of stuff but recently when you go to blog/wp-content/uploads/authors/pletal.html you can buy Viagra from this Canadian pharmacy.

slide31

And it got to be trust worthy because it claims to be the No.1 drug store in internet LOL. It’s very easy wordpress got methods to do automated updates. Latest versions have much, much better security and because of automated updates it can easily get new versions easily. You just need to take advantage of the latest updates. And if you are a super power user you should be saying I know that but no you don’t. Here is one power tip add a .htaccess to your wp-admin and add this simple code

slide32

Well this says that only allow the above Ip addresses to access your admin area you can modify the IP addresses to your own IP addresses. So if they hackers try to exploit and try to hack into your blog they cannot do it because their IP is blocked on your server.

I take this opportunity to thank automattic and wordpress for doing a wonderful Job. They have come a long way from what it was in 2007. Almost all my wishes are already happening with wordpress.

slide33

All of them are already pretty done, automatic updates, protected wordpress content directory and rel=canonical. Well I am not going to talk about rel=canonical because there is nothing to talk. It just tells Google that this is the only page that needs to be taken into consideration and avoid other duplicates formed by similar but different URLs. Rel=canonical is coming with wp 2.8 and above inbuilt so you don’t have to worry too much about it. It just helps you with search engines so that your PageRank is not split between different URLs.
