Social bookmark widget ?

Oct 18

Promoting through social bookmarking sites is FREE (of money) but can take up some time. I have used some social bookmark widget before on fav20, people voted, I got to 52 saves on del.icio.us, and some talk on stumble, but not too many visitors from those sites.

I added today addtoany widget on the footer so you can easily save and share fav20. Happy saving.

Tracking user actions from banner marketing campaigns

Oct 17

Advance PHP knowledge is needed to understand this technique

When advertising on a site, you want to know how the user actions from that site (if it converted or not: signed up or buy).

One solution is to add a domain.tld/?refer=somecode but that looks ugly for the ones who visit. 

For fav20 I see if user registered by using the following code:

if(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'],’domain.tld’)) {
       $referer = ‘domain.tld’;
       setcookie(”referer”, $referer, time() + 3600 * 24 * 30,”/”);
}

And then I use the $referer variable to add it to a hidden field in the sign-up form and insert it in the database. User will be tracked for 30 days on my example.

Why use fav20 as a homepage ?

Oct 17

Here is a short list of features and advantages that will make you wanna use fav20.com as your browser homepage.

  • no registration - you have all features from the first time you visit;
  • easy to find - because all websites have images, you can easily see the site you want to visit;
  • easy to add - just write the url in the top box and submit. The site will be saved and ready to use;

Unsubscribe from blogs with partial RSS feed

Oct 13

When you read a blog, you read it for it’s content and not it’s design. I decided to unsubscribe from partial RSS feeds, because I loose too much time visiting their blogs just to check out the article.

If the article is good and I am interested in commenting, after I fully read it in the RSS Reader, I will visit the article and comment.

I sometimes use my HTC Diamond to read blogs via RSS Reader, and I really hate it that I have to go visit their blogs to read the article.
