Shutting Down Our Link Directories

hanniganwebco — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 14:53:16 +0000

As of this morning we are shutting down our link directories articleweb.us, linkdir.us, and linkdir.org.

These directories were getting hammered with spam listings and were becoming impossible to sift through every day to find only one or two valid listings. We apologize to everyone who followed the rules and listed their great sites but once again the spammers ruin the day. HWC cannot afford to be listed as a spam directory as it would hurt search engine results to our other sites which are the lifeblood of the company.

If you would like to inquire about purchasing this domain name and/or site content please see the domains for sale page.

Sitemap Generator Software

hanniganwebco — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 02:33:28 +0000

One of the most important parts of SEO work is having a good, up-to-date sitemap that you can send to search engines on a regular basis. I have been using XML-Sitemaps.com‘s unlimited XML, Text, HTML sitemap generator for about a year now. It is a very sturdy program that just runs through my cron jobs nightly without any issues at all, ever. Once you set up the configuration on how you want your sitemap, the program just runs flawlessly, spitting out nicely formatted sitemaps.

Here is the brief summary of its features straight from their website*:

1. It generates any kind of sitemap you require: XML, Text, HTML site maps.
2. It is developed in PHP languages and works with most web-server’s configurations
3. Fast and easy installation onto the same host that should be crawled
4. Flexible configuration that allows you to set any sitemap parameters and crawler settings
5. Support of LARGE websites, dividing the sitemap on the parts per 50,000 URLs each and Sitemap Index file according to the Google sitemap protocol.
6. “robots.txt” exclusion protocol is supported
7. GZip compression supported (optional)
8. User-friendly progress indication for sitemap generation in manual mode
9. Allows to setup the cron job to create sitemaps without a user interaction
10. Informs (ping) Google automatically when sitemap generation is complete
11. Website structure analysis feature represents the tree-like layout of your pages distribution within folders
12. The script collects all generated sitemaps details and provides the log changes in it, including the number (and the lists) of added and removed pages.
13. The broken links are detected by the application and reported on the special page, providing also the URLs pages that refer to these bad links.

The unlimited generator is only $19.99 and can be used on all of your sites, no limitations on how many times you can install it. The program runs a PHP script right on your web server where you host your site.

They offer a free online sitemap generator for those that may just want to create one for their own personal site. The free online sitemap generator will only index 500 pages.

There is an online demo of the configuration page which can be found here.

I highly recommend this product.

New Hannigan Web Company Site

hanniganwebco — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 00:18:54 +0000

I decided to deploy a new site today, getting rid of the original, simple HTML coded site I threw up in the beginning. I incorporated the site with the blog using WordPress. This way I was able to use WordPress as a CMS and have a more organized, better looking website since there isn’t that much info to display anyway.

I am currently trying to get a friend of mine to help with the logo for the site and company. I am not the best at graphics but she is very good so I should get something cool out of it. Let me know what you think of the site.

We Are Official

hanniganwebco — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 19:02:09 +0000

Today I can officially call this HanniganWebCompany…finally.

I decided that it was time I quit putting things off and went down to the county clerks office to file my D/B/A. I got lucky and got there before the lunch rush and was back out the door quickly. I don’t know why I took so long to do this.

So as of right now, I am HanniganWebCompany!!!

Selling A Domain Name

hanniganwebco — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 14:10:39 +0000

I have been in talks with a few people over the past month and a half about possibly selling one of my domain names. It apparently caught their eye and they contacted me. I then evaluated the domain and found out its worth almost as much as a new car, which excited me. I haven’t sold any domain names before, but the process is very long drawn out. I have received very little response lately after the initial hype that fell through due to its high value. Its a little depressing to know you have something worth so much but yet you can’t sell it.

So if anyone is interested in some domain names for sale, please visit: www.hanniganwebcompany.com/domains-for-sale. We are willing to strike amazing deals for some of the names.

Candle-Market.us Launched

hanniganwebco — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 05:49:22 +0000

I would like to announce the launch of www.candle-market.us.

I had some free time last night and was able to finish this one up. Hope y’all like it. Great store to shop for candles, scented oils, and air fresheners to make your place smell great.

Server Outage

hanniganwebco — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 19:33:43 +0000

Apparently for a reason that has yet to be told to me my server was down for 8+ hours today. I have never been so frustrated before. I asked many times and never received and answer besides “hardware issue” which annoys me even more. I mean don’t they have a fail-over routine or and sort of BDR device. No reason why if it was going to be 8 hours and I complained as many times as I did that I couldn’t have been moved to another server temporarily. True more work for them, but that’s what I pay for.

I apologize to all my customers and viewers out there, this was beyond my control.

So after all this, as soon as my plan comes up for renewal say bu-bye to this host. This was the last straw.

Increased Traffic

hanniganwebco — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 20:47:28 +0000

It has been only a few months since some of these sites have been up and there has been a very strong increase in traffic lately. I made a few tweaks a week ago and they are really paying off. Google Ads revenue is pretty consistent these days. Traffic data shows the two link directories www.linkdir.us and www.articleweb.us are getting anywhere from 50-100 unique visitors each day, not too shabby for only having them up for about 2 months now.

I think I made my first sale out of the then Amazon affiliate stores I have out there. My reports show two items ordered on www.web-market.us, but I have yet to see the commission to know the sale was final. I guess I have to wait for the person to ship the item first. That will be another post if/when it happens.

My goal is to get another site out there in the next few days. Time is short lately with classes picking back up but I am trying to stick to my plan of getting many more sites done.

Stay tuned.
