ATTENTION - searchportal.information.com DNS POISONING

Mon, 07 May 2007 11:43:51 GMT

Recently many LiveJournal users had been shocked when instead their own LJ homepage they bumped into searchportal.information.com parking page. Some thought it was a work of an unknown malicious virus - in fact it was a completely different thing. Sometimes called DNS poisoning it was a rather common but no less dangerous DNS Hijack attack.
I spent some time researching the subject and you may find a detailed analysis of what actually happened in these three posts:

Closing searchportal.information.com Subject

Update on searchportal.information.com DNS Attack

DNS attack or Easter DOS attack as they call it

The most important thing to know is that your account security had been seriously compromised - URGENTLY CHANGE YOUR LJ ACCOUNT PASSWORD

Rel Follow the most important SEO trick

Mon, 07 May 2007 11:21:00 GMT

Today all major search engines agreed on introducing rel follow attribute aimed to counterbalance the well-known rel nofollow. I must empasize that some mistakingly call this attribute dofollow. I urge you not to use dofollow as a substitute for rel follow as it may produce completely opposite effect. Read my larger article on rel follow to avoid any confusion and get clear guidelines on using rel follow.

Yahoo fiddles with your search results

I found the proof of Yahoo handcrafting - all that had been rumours until now is clearly confirmed! The screenshot says it all - they really do manual editing of search results in Yahoo. What a scandal!

How to add LiveJournal Feed to your LJ page

Tue, 30 Jan 2007 00:14:03 GMT

Did you know your LiveJournal blog actually has an RSS Feed? Here is how to add your LiveJournal Feed to your LJ blog - the next in my line of LJ tips and Tricks.
First post to your LiveJournal as there must be entries in your Blog to populate your feed :-)
The URL for your feed which LiveJournal is not widely publicizing is something like this example of my LiveJournal Feed: http://lzzrseo.livejournal.com/data/rss/ - it is your LJ blog address plus data and rss directories. Simple!
What you do with it?
To get noticed by search engines like Yahoo, MSN or Google you need to publish this link somewhere. The most obvious place is to put it in your Free Text Component like it's done here.
You can also put up some kind of list urging your visitors to subscribe to this feed with different feedreader services:
Subscribe RSS

[+] Bloglines

[+] Google Reader

[+] My AOL

[+] My MSN

[+] My Yahoo

[+] Newsgator

[+] Pluckit

[+] Rojo

[+] NewsBurst

[+] FeedFeeds

[+] SearchFox

[+] Netvibes

[+] FeedLounge

[+] XML Feed

and more importantly you can add this to all your blogs that have feed reader block, widget or module like wordpress or blogger

Squeezing a bit more from LiveJournal with LJseek

Sat, 27 Jan 2007 17:22:39 GMT

This nice little SEO trick helps improving visibility of your LJ blog with LJseek service.
LJseek is a third-party (they say it is) indexing site for LiveJournal, so it is another domain and another site altogether.
First you need to make sure your LJ blog is indexed.
When it gets indexed just find yourself there using a search that gets all your postings. If you have groups you can also search within groups for your stuff.
You will get something like this LZZR
Et voila - you have a page with clean direct links to your LJ postings! Google, Yahoo and MSN must love it!
Now what? Place this link somwhere in your Free Text Component and all around the web. (Components are LJ Widgets and you need to have these enabled of course)

PS. I thought it's too good to be true - well it is :-( Not only they don'tplace a direct link to your blog in their results but pass them through redirects, but also they plug them with NOFOLLOW !!! Greedy, greedy bstrds they are! :-) Anyway, we'll find something better soon.

Posting to LiveJournal with a messaging client

Fri, 26 Jan 2007 19:46:25 GMT

A wonderful feature I am testing right now allows posting with any messaging client that supports Jabber protocol.
Quite neat as it must support all major multi-protocol chat clients like Gaim, Gizmo etc
I am using Trillian Pro BTW :-P
Here is how you set up posing:
I assume you set up your messaging client already
You basically post to a user called LJ Bot
Send him a message with just one word HELP in it and it will answer with this
LJ Bot (Frank) (bot): To post to your journal, message me with "post: " and some text. To use a subject, do: "post: [Your Subject] Your post...."
This is all - you are done!
Works amazingly fast. Absolutely the must if you are a chatter!

For quite some time I've been interested how LiveJournal can be used for SEO. It seems it has enormous potential and now it's the time to begin experimenting. We'll start from little innocent things and no way there will be any BlackHatting here. I promise! I really do!
Honestly, I have nothing to do with Black Hat SEO. BlackHat isn't really my cup of tea.
Watch this space and study and you might learn some interesting tricks. Did I mention that LJ is a real gold mine?
