Fixed... Thank you.

Just get cable internet! Are you on a wireless connection with fastfreedom.net ??

Confirmed safe --- it is a VB Script, but it's a safe one... I don't really use IE anymore, but I changed my title bar anyway... "Spyware Explorer 6.0"

Yes, I do make money from Google... though it would be a breach of my agreement with Google to go into details. I pay for the current server, with proceeds from advertising. So in essence, those who support my advertising are paying for the hosting

394 KB/s * 2.6 = 1024.4 --- 1024.4/1024 = aprox 1MB

.s1 -- if you notice, he said he gets those pauses everywhere... not just TestMy.net

I just loaded this in IE.. and showed up just fine on my end.

Yea.. I don't know why it's not working.. I did notice that right after I posted (hence the post of mine that simply says "glow") lemme look into this.. thanks

How would that benefit unless you are running a server?

[glow=red,2,300]glow[/glow]

Only works in IE.. you must be using Mozilla.

nice... I wish I had as much bandwidth at home to deal with as you...

Are you serious?

Just wanted to share this... may help someone out there searching for this As for your site, the way now-a-days to get better engine rankings is to have people link to you and to have lots of content. The reason my ranking with Google for instance keeps growing is because lots of people link to me, lots of websites mention my sites name and I have tens-of-thousands of pages with-in my site. The more content you have the better your site will rank, with most of the good search engines anyway. First, ADD MORE CONTENT. The more content you have the more keywords you have, the more keywords you have the more chances you have for people to find your site. On the same note, the more content a search engine has to spider the higher that search engine will rank you. How the search engine figures it is "If this site has this many pages, this site MUST be a serious site with LOTS of good information." Second, list your site with Yahoo, this is tricky because yahoo is VERY picky. Before submitting a site to Yahoo you want to make sure the site doesn't;t have any dead link and that it looks GREAT. The more unique content the better. Submit at http://search.yahoo.com/info/submit.html --- My site opened in 1999 (under a different name though) it took me until 2001 to get listed on Yahoo. You may have to submit more than once. Some people will pay for a listing on Yahoo... but that still doesn't guarantee listing, it only makes them look at your site faster. More info here >> http://docs.yahoo.com/info/suggest/ Third, add your site to ODP, or Open Directory Project or DMOZ.org. They are almost as hard to get listed on as Yahoo. But once your listed on ODP your URL will be shared with hundreds of websites that use ODP data. Like myself, I run a little known about ODP search engine.at https://testmy.net/dir/ -- if you would like to submit your site to ODP go to http://dmoz.org/add.html Fourth, find other sites in the same genre as your and email the site owners for reciprocal links. First post their link on your site (in a links section) and email them, let them know you have linked to them and ask if they would do the same. You should get about 1 reciprocal link per 3-4 tries... the more links to you the higher your ranking. How the search engines think about it is... "If other people are linking to this site, the site MUST contain good information" One thing to keep in mind is that a lot of search engines on the net are actually HUMAN edited sites. Meaning your first listing is going to be reviewed by an actual person. Do like you would for a job interview... dress your best, have good grammar and act like you REALLY want the job. Here is a list of search engines... some you can submit to. Don't bother with any submission services you may see, a lot of search engines that allow submissions will kick those submissions out. You need to do them ONE-by-ONE http://www.altavista.com/ submit to >> http://www.altavista.com/addurl/default http://www.freefind.com/ (I don't know about this one) http://www.mamma.com (pay-per-click I think) http://search.msn.com (spider built) http://www.google.com (spider built)) http://www.allintheweb.com submit to >> http://www.alltheweb.com/help/webmaster/submit_site http://www.looksmart.com (built on ODP data) http://www.yahoo.com (half built on ODP data, other half is built on Google data) http://www.google.com (partially built on ODP data) http://www.go.com (built on Google data) http://www.aol.com (built on Google data) Some other lesser known, that you can list on to get some more links out there... you most likely won't get ANY hits off these links but you will raise your rank with some of the better known engines. http://www.ottawastart.com/suggest.shtml http://www.tenlinks.com/ABOUT/suggest.htm http://www.entwagon.com/celeb/suggest.html http://www.unixguide.net/addurl.shtml http://www.stamp2.com/suggestsite.asp http://www.canadiancontent.net/corp/suggest.html http://www.ohiobiz.com/listings.htm If you want to find more of these.. use this search.. thousands more to find http://www.google.com/search?q=%22suggest+a+site%22&btnG=Search&hl=en&lr=&safe=off This should be enough info to get you going. Enjoy!

that's how I spelt it --- in fact that's how you spelt it the first time.

Nice that program is just what I need to test my sites accuracy. I installed that and limited it to see what slower connections show... every time. right on the money for instnace... 56K fakie :::..

Basically lets me know what my site is going to look and behave like to someone on a connection that is slower than my own, hard thing to do when you have a 5Mbps+ line.

ehhh. screw it, I don't feel like making it a huge deal.. I lifted the restriction.

Welcome Almost... don't worry, most of us take pride in being geeks. Calling us geeks actually strokes our egos.

I am almost there Adam
