After a noticeable lull in my web development work, October and November have been productive.
Vintage Audio Online is a website dedicated to one of my hobbies/business – Vintage Audio. I tried to zone in on what I felt the vintage audio enthusiast wants – pictures and information.
TabletReviews.co.uk – The iPad brought in the age of the tablet, so fittingly, a site dedicated to the latest tablets, tablet news, and like the name says, tablet reviews.
DutchCityBike.com – I spent the month of October in Holland, and it reminded me of what a great thing the bicycles is. Dutch bikes are making headway into the States too. This site is a bit of fun, it’s an interest of mine, and an experiment to see if I rank on some Dutch bike terms.
CouchSeattle.com – Couch Seattle is my friend Ameer’s store. Ameer built the site on his own, and it was hosted on WordPress – even though he already owned the CouchSeattle.com domain name. I finally convinced him to make the switch to host wordpress himself on his own domain. At the same time, I’m putting some working into optimizing his site to drive organic traffic. He’s also taking Adwords on, as opposed to paying the local SEO company in Seattle he used before.

I customized a 404 page today. Just with some text to let the user know the page wasn’t there with a few links to existing content on the domain. Then, using the script below it redirects the visitor to my homepage in 2 seconds. A nice way to capture your 404 traffic I thought.
This example is setup to redirect to another page in 2 seconds. When a page contains this JavaScript, it will be redirected to another page that you specify in the “window.location=“. You can change the number of refresh seconds by changing the “move()’,2000 to the number of seconds you’d like.
Example:
1000 = 1 second
3000 = 3 seconds
Place this code between the <head> and </head> tags
<script language=”JavaScript”>
var time = null
function move() {
window.location = ‘http://www.yourdomain.com’
}
//–>
</script> |
Place this code in your <body> tag
<body onload=”timer=setTimeout(‘move()’,2000)”>

Yes, Bing.com is live. First impression is that it’s nothing special. The preview feature on the right hand side is pretty cool. Will it catch on? Not sure yet, but for now I don’t see it offering anything that Google doesn’t have.
