Web Dev King

News you need to know.

Well here is whats going on with my life and why I haven’t posted for an apparent: 75 days

I had a quite busy summer, that’s a large reason… I’m 19, so I was getting ready for college and all that stuff.
But yes, I am in college now, believe it or not, majoring in business administration, which will be interesting.

I really need to get back into the internet marketing industry, its so powerful, but it makes you lazy as well. For example, what I did in just the one month before summer vacation, earned me enough to sustain myself through a quite expensive summer. But I got lazy and didn’t follow through and keep working at it. Which I most definitely should.

So I really failed in keeping people updated and in posting on the Free Script Saturdays. I will be posting lots of information on my coding endeavors and internet marketing information and anything else I can get my hands on that is related to Web Development.

So in the next weeks and hopefully rest of the year, expect lots of information that you will find read worthy. As a matter a fact, I will set out on a journey to find some now. Oh yes and if you have some questions or want some source code or an idea or some thing, post in the comments I swear I’ll get back to you.

Oh, and here is a fun fact. My internet connection is now about 20 kb per second. I thought that speed didn’t even exist anymore. Apparently it does, because I have it, and it sucks pretty badly. You can’t even do anything with it… it takes like two nights to download a movie or something, not that I would do that, but that’s how long it would take if I did.

Alright, well I have to end this post somewhere, so I might as well make it here.

Here.

Image Exploits and How You Can Benefit.

I was checking out various videos on DefCon 15 and stuff, you never know what you will find in one of the speaker videos. Every once in a while you stumble upon some great information that may not be too widely known.

This may have been around for some while, I mean, this speech was made in 2007. But regardless it still should work fine on sites that have not yet protected themselves from it. So why think its out dated or not use it? No reason. Watch this video, it shows how you can expand on a extremely interesting tool. Basically, the executable image exploit.

So much could be done with images like these to record visitors across a network of sites that you don’t own. Maybe if you owned an stock photography site or something you could set it up so that members don’t see watermarks on images. Really I don’t know all the things you could do, but the possibilities are quite beneficial.

Any ideas?

Can’t Get Rich Interview

I was interviewed by Geoff in this weeks Can’t Get Rich Podcast. Podcast Number 5. Its about 19 minutes long so check it out.

Can’t Get Rich Podcast - Episode 5

It was a really cool interview, Geoff’s podcast and blog are exploding in popularity, so it was pretty cool to be asked for an interview.

Also my host or server hosting me or whatever has been acting like crap. I’m sick of it randomly not working. If your reading this, feel privileged.  Because I can’t even view the main page of my site, I can only do back end stuff.

France and Asshats

I am back from 9 days in Paris, France with 4 other seniors who graduated along with me. Its a pretty interesting country.

Anyways back to the good old Web Development Business and stuff…

About the problem I mentioned in my last post that I had on facebook, here is basically what it is.

Some asshat on facebook copied my ad word for word and the picture. Well I reported his ad to facebook and I was like: “this asshat is plagiarizing my ad“.

Well it worked, they got rid of his ad, but the stupid people working for facebook got rid of my ad as well. Ah well, it was an old campaign that I had finished anyway. I just don’t like people leeching off my work.

So anyway, after getting back from France last night, I see the same guys new ad up on facebook. So this is what I figure… if I can’t make money off of it, and some other guy is, why doesn’t everyone make money off of it. So i am pretty close to posting up the entire ad + everything, and let everyone enjoy! Which will in turn, ruins this guys undeserving profit from my work.

So, expect that post on how I made made my first revenue online, quite soon.

Thats about it.

Also about the Free Script Saturday. I have posted 3 right now, and I sure want to post more, but ideas fail me when im busy, so post up a comment or something and give me some ideas on what I could develop. Im not interested in making something complex, just the basics so that people who use it can develop, and add on to the script, whatever it may be.

Well, im out.

Whats Going On With The Web Dev King.

I’m sure that the masses of subscribers to my blog are wondering where the hell I am. Well let me tell you what all is going on which will in fact, explain why I have not posted for 2 weeks.

The King has temporarily replaced his crown for a lesser… cap

1. I have graduated from high school. When you mix a 19 year old, prom, graduation, and other stupid random traditions, you get 0 time for other things. Here are some random facts about me + high school.

• I probably graduated in the bottom half of my class gpa wise, even though with my ACT score I had the second highest in the class, am I an underachiever? or just good at taking tests.
• My class is a bunch of lazy keeblers. For our senior prank we didn’t feel like rolling any houses, so we bought a 24 pack of toilet paper and just set the entire pack on the front door of our principles house and included a note which said: “Enjoy the Free Toilet Paper.”
• I hurt my arm while trying to roll(?) a bowling ball backwards (the wrong way) at a stupid bowling party.
• I decided that the masquerade themed prom my old(w00t) high school hosted, just wasn’t cool enough for me, so I didn’t wear a mask and defied the rules, neither did my date.

2. I had several problems with getting paid by my affiliate network… but never the less, Friday the 16th of May I received my first payment/paycheck whatever you call it. Going on cue with the people in this industry that I respect, I won’t brag or post about how much I made. Here are three facts about how much I received:

   It is more than $1

   It is less than $10,000

   It is not $6203.65

3. In 3 hours, I depart on a senior trip/adventure to Paris, France. When I return, I will feel motivated enough to do several more things, as I just recently was unmotivated by what I saw on facebook. Anyways, so long internet, facebook, mIRC, random things not in France… hello wine, Normandy, random things in France…

The King has temporarily replaced his cap for a … french beret

Anyways… without further ado…

I shall post later

Free Script Saturday: Content Transformer Script

Like I promised in my earlier post announcing the new, Free Script Saturdays here is a free php script, on a saturday.

Today, I give you: The Content Transformer Script.

Here is a rundown of what it does:

1. You insert a bunch of content/html code/whatever and hit submit
2. The Content Transformer will go through the content, any words that are greater than 4 letters, will be run through Thesaurus.com, and the closest synonym will be grabbed, and your word will be replaced with its synonym.
3. If it doesn’t find a synonym, it probably means you misspelled the word or are using some sort of slang, so it leaves it alone
4. Finally, it outputs the content onto either the screen, or a .txt file with your new and transformed content.

Of course, I wouldn’t recommend using this script for any actual final content, because things can be changed into ineligible meanings. Be sure to look over your post. Once again this script is only so that you can see the process of scraping websites and editing your own information. Hack away at this script.

Here is an idea: Try to edit around the script so that for each word it finds, you get a little selection pop up or something and you choose which synonym out of the many possibilities would best fit the meaning.

Download the ContentTransformer.Rar here.

If you decide to update this script or create a smoother version with more features, be sure to post a link in the comments, that way I can mention it and we can all have fun.

Have fun,
WebDevKing

Spamming Guestbooks Gives You Ranks

A good way to find out what techniques are working well to rank in the search engines, is by checking the “grand arena” of search engine ranking. Which is Viagra, on Google. If there is any technique that exists to get good rankings on Google, you will probably find it being used for a term like Viagra, or Cheap Viagra, Viagra is one of the most profitable rankings to earn on Google, so if you have a good technique, thats where most people would use it first.

Anyway, I was making my rounds of checking out how the sites where ranked etc, when I searched for Cheap Viagra the second term caught my eye quickly, because of its complete and utter, ugliness. Some comment on a post at a blogger account was ranked second, obviously something was fishy.

Spamming up.

When I checked it for links, I saw this: Results 1 - 10 of about 960 … tons of spamming on guest books that did not require captchas. Do you think he did it by hand? I highly doubt it.

It might take me about a 2 minutes each to create a spammer for each of these guestbooks. And I’m sure some guesbooks overlap and use the same template, so its just a question of . From there its history…

What am I saying through this? 1 thing, learn to code, it can be quite beneficial, even if you don’t spam a ton of guestbooks to rank for a term such as cheap viagra. You could still use it for other terms, or spam just about anything on the nets.

Spamming is wrong you say, well this is what I say, read this post by Slightly Shady Seo, titled Why Whitehats need to know Blackhat SEO that should explain a lot.

So, to wrap up, I may give a very basic guestbook spammer on an upcoming Free Script Saturday for you to look at, analyze how it works, and scale it so you too, can rank for Cheap Viagra

Announcing: Free Script Saturday

I’ve decided to add a “feature” to my blog, it is going to be called, Free Script Saturdays, now there are many reasons why I am going to be adding this feature and what gave me the idea. Including these:

As you all know there is a certain internet marketer that has a feature called Free Shirt Fridays, but really, instead of being of any benefit to anyone, such as giving shirts away, he just posts a picture of himself in a shirt that he got for free.

So this gave me the idea, of instead of posting a picture of myself in all my divine free shirt glory every Friday, I will give you something that would actually benefit the readers of Web Dev King. Because, Developing on the web pretty much requires scripting and coding, so its a good idea to learn it.

Every Saturday, I will upload a script, free and open source, that you may download, dice and splice as you wish. Edit it, modify it, do what you want. Through doing this, you learn more about the code in itself.

The scripts I upload are usually no where near perfect, or too clean, they will have interesting features to them though! I can tell you that much. Here are two of the previous scripts that I gave you, notice that they where posted on Saturdays.

List Creator and Combiner
Saturday, April 26th, 2008
Quick Landing Pages
Saturday, April 19th, 2008

And as for upcoming scripts, you can look for them on Saturdays, they will be anything and everything from, Content Mixers to Site Scrapers, to any feature you can possibly imagine.

I recommend subscribing to my RSS feed right below. That way you will not miss out on any Free Scripts I give out on Saturday.

Boost Your SEO With Some Easy Link Building

As many of you know Lord Brar , a friend of mine who I recently talked about in this post a few days ago, has released a significant new application.

The Link Building Tool, really goes without explanation, the name is all you need to know what the product does. But if you wish for further details, I have them for you.

Here is a quick step by step overview of what this tool does:

1. Enter a keyword and hit scan.
2. It will now proceed to instantly scan as many pages deep into Google or MSN as you provide, grabbing all the sites in these pages.
3. Now that you have your list of sites, hit the Rank New Urls, what this does is
   1. Scan each URL for for two things,
   2. the quality of the link that you will get,
   3. and how easy it is to post a link on that page
4. Now you can sort the list to display the top scoring ones, start loading those links and posting.
5. This facilitates finding areas to post links that are related to your site.

So, with this tool you can build hundreds of links an hour if you dedicate the time, and also find all sorts of interesting and relevant sites that you can get some back links to as well.

Now the pricing for this tool is very interesting: You pay $67 upfront to download and use that tool for life. So after the initial down payment, you are good to go!

I seriously recommend this program to anyone looking to be serious in the SEO world, this is a smoking hot application. Check it out at EasyLinkBuilding.com.

If I was to rate this application, I would give it many stars, and I am sure there are many interesting updates to come for this. But here is my final say about the Easy Link Builder.

 ”Excellent program, fast, simple and versatile, easy to use, and overall a good purchase and tool to add to your SEO tool box.”

List Creator and Combiner

Well, I just wanted to share a simple .php script I created a day or two ago. I made this for a client of mine who needed something quick.

Basically what this script does is: You insert 3 lists of keywords, and it combines them all.

Hint: You can use this to create two lists of keywords and one of tlds then pop the combined list into a domain checker see whats available!

Basically, this is what I am talking about:

So, you can insert some opening keywords/adjectives in the first box, then in the second box, put some proper nouns/nouns/objects, and then in the third box put a list of tld’s you are looking to register!

Hit combine and presto:

You get a pretty random integers/numbers.txt file, which inside has just generated every single combination of those three… check out the final result here: bc7c2.txt

Pretty cool huh? And guess whats even cooler, this script is really basic! So I am going to give you this script so that you can look over it and check it out. Check out what its doing, try to figure it out, its good to know some of those tidbits in PHP.

So right now, my client has just generated a list of over 36k domain names, and is scanning them all.

Download this simple yet powerful tool yourself and get a hacking away at that keyboard.

ListCombine.rar

This is basic you say? Only a noob would look at something like this? This is for you.

Good luck and have fun.
