Zend Framework Coding Standard for PHP

PHP File Formatting

1. General

For files that contain only PHP code, the closing tag ("?>") is never permitted. It is not required by PHP, and omitting it prevents the accidental injection of trailing whitespace into the response.
IMPORTANT: Inclusion of arbitrary binary data as permitted by __HALT_COMPILER() is prohibited from PHP files in the Zend Framework project or files derived from them. Use of this feature is only permitted for some installation scripts.

2. Indentation

Indentation should consist of 4 spaces. Tabs are not allowed.

3. Maximum Line Length

The target line length is 80 characters. That is to say, ZF developers should strive keep each line of their code under 80 characters where possible and practical. However, longer lines are acceptable in some circumstances. The maximum length of any line of PHP code is 120 characters.

4. Line Termination

Line termination follows the Unix text file convention. Lines must end with a single linefeed (LF) character. Linefeed characters are represented as ordinal 10, or hexadecimal 0x0A.

Note: Do not use carriage returns (CR) as is the convention in Apple OS's (0x0D) or the carriage return/linefeed combination (CRLF) as is standard for the Windows OS (0x0D, 0x0A).

Press Releases and Search Engine Optimization

Many companies still don't take advantage of SEO. There are many, however, that issue press releases on a regular basis. What they don't understand is that press releases can be part of your SEO efforts, and can be used to gain presence in the editorial results of the search engines, even if it's not a direct presence for your actual domain.

Press releases, in the traditional sense, were meant to reach out to journalists with the hope that a publication would pick it up, call someone within your company for comment, and gain a presence within the traditional media community (television, radio and/or print) to enhance your image and further your business.

Press releases in the digital media environment can do all of that, plus a bunch of other cool stuff. Even though many continue to issue press releases, few have made adjustments to their efforts to include press release optimization for the digital community and to further their interactive marketing -- and specifically SEO -- efforts.

By paying attention to a few important details, it's possible to craft an interactive press release and create synergies within your other marketing efforts:

Step 1: Creation of the Press Release

Write for the editors you're trying to reach traditionally, as well as the search engines.

  • Headline: You must have a catchy headline or else no one -- aside from the search engines -- will read it. If you want the most from your efforts, include at least one relevant keyword phrase that people search for.
  • Copy: Mention the keywords of focus for the release within the first paragraph.
  • Linking: Many press release distribution companies allow you to include keyword-rich anchor text in links. These links should be directed to specific URLs within your Web site that, ideally, have a title tag, header tag, and content that supports this same keyword phrase. There's great SEO value in having links on other Web sites linking to you, using keywords that you'd like to rank for within the anchor text of the link.
  • Tags: Many distribution partners allow you to tag your press release with keywords that you'd like to have this release associated with.

Step 2: Distribution

Many companies offer varying levels of service for distribution. I'll outline a few:

  1. Business Wire. The leading source for press releases, photos, multimedia, and regulatory filings from companies and groups throughout the world, and suited for businesses of all sizes. Pricing for their optimized releases is currently $225 per release with a Business Wire circuit, and $295 if ordered standalone (a free membership to Business Wire is required). These releases via EON (Enhanced Online News) offer the use of anchor text and links, trackbacks, Web site preview, and customization of the permanent URL. This is also great for targeting long tail terms.
  2. PRNewswire. More than just an online network, they'll distribute through the traditional and interactive outlets. Hyperlinks are often removed from online releases, although the releases can rank well in the organic results. The newsline you select and the length of your news release determine the distribution cost. Each newsline covers a specific geographical area: local, regional, national, and international. Their optimized releases are included in US1 releases for $680 or can be added to any other release for an additional $255. Membership is $195 annually and releases start at $180 depending on the location you're targeting.
  3. PRWeb. Great for small to medium-sized businesses, PRWeb is a leader in online news and press release distribution:
    • Standard Visibility: Basic submission, inclusion on Google and Yahoo News, two-day distribution, $80.
    • Social Media: Basic plus social bookmarking links for increased Web 2.0 distribution (tagging, etc), $140.
    • SEO Visibility: Allows for controlling anchor text of links in the release, next day distribution, and advanced SEO statistics (keywords referring traffic to the release, etc.), $200.
    • Media Visibility: Guaranteed distribution through the AP and top U.S. newspapers, addition of embedded video, $360.
  4. PRLeap. This newest and least expensive outlet also has the fewest press releases being submitted on a daily basis, and is great for smaller businesses. My company has successfully distributed press releases through this channel into Google's universal results.
    • Basic: Google and Ask News inclusion, text links, inclusion in PRLeap RSS feed (600 word limit), $49.
    • Plus: Basic plus AP and UPI distribution, social media tagging/bookmarking, allows for one media attachment, and next day service (1,000 word limit), $99.
    • Premium: Plus benefits and allows for five media attachments (2,000 word limit), $149.

Step 3: Publish Press Releases on Your own Web Site

While you're going through the trouble of creating and submitting all of these press releases for distribution, don't forget to publish all of your press releases on your own Web site to aid your SEO efforts. The search engines love sites that add keyword-rich pages on a regular basis. The more pages, the better. And, if you can organize your press releases by category (similar to how you might organize blog posts), all the better.

One other note: if your press releases are posted correctly (i.e., a unique title tag, header, and other content), this will avoid duplicate content issues with the release that exists on the distribution partner's Web site. There can be issues with other syndicators of this content (they may not go through the trouble of creating unique title tags, headers, etc.), but the good ones will rank.

Five Steps To Successful Site Architecture For B2B SEO

1. Identify potential keywords

Keyword strategy in B2B SEO is downright difficult. I talked about many of the reasons why in a previous Search Engine Land article about navigating B2B keyword strategy. Erik-Jan Bulthuis had a great post on Joost de Valk's site in which he also describes some of the challenges and proposes a good approach to B2B keyword research. Your goal is this first step is not to make keyword choices or judgments, but rather to create the gross list, being as inclusive as possible of the potential terms actual prospects might use.

Focus on generic keywords; don't get caught up in proprietary brand lingo. Think of the types of products and services you sell. What are your revenue streams? What do customers and prospects call things? Will their search string express the product/service sought, the problem they're experiencing, or the type of company potentially offering solutions? Does geography play a role in the search string?

2. Determine relative popularity

Once you've created the gross list of potential keywords, you need to determine the relative popularity of those search terms. Often paid search keyword research tools (such as Google's Traffic Estimator) won't have data because traffic for these terms is low. In some cases, there will be data, but it will show very low activity. That's okay. Don't pay too much attention to that. Rather, use tools like Keyword Discovery to determine relative historical popularity of your keywords. This will give you some idea of which search terms are used more often than others on your list. The actual raw number of searches for a given search term really doesn't matter much.

When you're doing this work, remember to enter the root word(s) or root phrase, letting your research tool return permutations and long-tail options. Not only will this give you a larger list to consider, but the results will often lead you down a path you hadn't previously considered.

3. Make your draft picks

Now determine for which search terms your site will be optimized. In B2B keyword research, usually there will not be clear-cut winners. Instead, for each B2B product or service, there will be one or two relevant search terms that rank highly, three to five more that place as strong "seconds", and a host of others that have good potential.

As you're evaluating relative popularity of the search terms related to each product or service, remember to look at the whole list, including long-tail strings with lower search volume. Sure, these strings may not yield much traffic, but they may represent a more likely buyer or one closer to making a purchase decision.

4. Find a home for them

When you've fully reviewed things and made your selections, often, you'll wind up selecting three or more search terms for the same product or service-and these terms will be sufficiently different from one another that you won't be able to have a single web page serve as the landing page for all three terms. In fact, you may need many pages, one for each term.

In some cases, having three different product pages essentially taking about the same thing may be okay (as long as it isn't seen as duplicate content.) In other cases, it may look strange both to site visitors and from a useability standpoint. If so, here's where you need to get creative. You need to find a home for these "extra" search terms. Where else can these landing pages go on your site? In other words, where else on your site can you create a credible landing page that is going to respond well to organic search for the given term?

Thankfully, on B2B sites there often are (or can be) some other good alternatives to product pages. Can a case study page act as the landing page for the search term? What about a white paper page? A page in the Knowledge Center or thought leadership section of your site? What about in the news section? A blog posting? There are lots of options.

Obviously the way you handle a search term in the copy of a product section will be different than how you might handle the same term in a case study. And that's okay. Actually, it will force you not to create duplicate content. The important part is that you have sufficient landing pages for the desired search terms.

5. Link it up

Once you've identified a home (i.e., a channel or section of your site) for each landing page, you need to work these pages into your navigation. Some of these pages might be directly accessible through your site's primary navigation. Some may be in the sub-navigation of a given section, while others may only be accessible through text links in the body copy of a page. Keep the landing pages for the most popular search terms closest to the home page, the least amount of clicks possible to get to the landing page. Landing pages related to less popular, more obscure, or long-tail search terms can reside deeper in your site.

Finally, make sure you have intra-site linking between related search terms. If there are three landing pages for a given product-say a product page, a case study page, and a blog posting-make sure that the site visitor can easily get from her landing page to the other related pages. In other words, if your site visitor land on the case study page, make sure you have a link there to get to the related page in the product section of your site.

If you follow these steps, you'll create a site that has sufficient landing pages for each of your desired search terms, and your content will be organized into a logical, user-friendly architecture that responds well to organic search.

All this assumes you can write good B2B SEO copy that's also persuasive to the site visitor. But that's the subject of another article.

Search Engine Optimization Journal Adds Website Analytics Section to Blog

Having a web design firm build an e-commerce website is easy these days. Interview a few firms, find one that fits a specific budget and have them start building. There are details that many start up online entrepreneurs forget about, analytics (http://www.searchengineoptimizationjournal.com/category/analytics/).

Search Engine Optimization Journal has added a new analytics section to their already established industry blog. Search Engine Optimization Journal knows there is a tremendous need for knowledge on this important aspect of building a website that they have added an entirely new section dedicated towards this information. When launching a website it is just as important to know where all visitors are coming from as it is just driving visitors to a site. How can a website visitor make informed decisions on marketing their website when they don't even know their visitors patterns on the site? It is very important to know when a visitor sits on a page for five minutes or fifteen seconds so that a website owner knows where to make adjustments on a website. Knowing your websites visitors patterns will allow you to have an advantage. When it comes time to make adjustments to a website they can be made according to well gathered data instead of guesses. When a business owner has just dumped their life's savings into a business the livelihood of that business will depend on how website visitors use every square inch of that particular website.

Before diving into any marketing and search engine optimization (http://www.searchengineoptimizationjournal.com) for a freshly built website the website owner should allow the privilege of having some sort of analytics information to not only present to their team but also for themselves to analyze. No successful online business makes in today's industry without being able to analyze all analytics data. If the plan is to have an in-house team of marketers for a particular website they will base many of their marketing decisions on this analytics information. With analytics information the team will be able to see what countries visitors are coming from and how long they are spending on a specific page. They can also see exactly which links are working to help grow a business. If a marketing department has been performing social media marketing for 6 months and the website analytics tells the team that nobody has used that link to make it to the site than they know that shifting gears in a different direction will be beneficial. Without have analytics information they would never see if a referring link was actually working or if it was just sitting there quiet. In today's ever changing industry it is important to have as much ammo as possible otherwise a businesses marketing efforts could be wasted and that is something that is just not acceptable these days. Well gathered analytics information will allow any business to allocate their marketing dollars in the direction most beneficial to the success of that specific business.

ActiveState Debunks Open Source Myths

There's two major classes of open source myth: the "Open source is evil and strange" myth, and "Open source makes everything perfect forever" myth. It's easy to see how notions so far off-center are far from being universally true, but I'm heartened whenever someone debunks myths on both sides by taking a more moderate stance. Such is the case, intriguingly enough, with a paper entitled "Ten Myths About Running Open Source Software In Your Business," courtesy of ActiveState.

I've learned to be automatically wary of papers like this, if only because their publishers usually have a vested interest in the specific angle being taken. ActiveState's no exception, given that it sells and distributes interpreters for a number of languages on top of which open source solutions are built -- namely, Perl, Python, and Tcl. But they did the smart thing and approached the subject from as close to the center as possible, and the only sales pitches in the paper itself are fairly diffuse and easily separated from the bulk of their claims.

An example: Myth 6 -- Open Source Software Equals Open Standards. "Open source software is simply a licensing model; it does not equal best practices, like incorporating open standards." I'd argue that it's a development model more than it is a licensing model -- but I do agree that openness of code is no guarantee of anything else. It doesn't guarantee interoperability or security, although it sure makes them easier to implement. Another example, from the other side: Myth 5: Licensing Is Always A Nightmare (typically only if you're reusing code in a publicly deployed project), or Myth 1: You Have To Choose Between Open Source And Proprietary Software (the two can interoperate nicely).

What I wonder is, how many of the myths in question are strawmen by now? It would've been interesting to poll a bunch of CIOs and see how much they agree or disagree with said myths -- and maybe in the process find out what myths about open source, positive or negative, are circulating in the wild that don't make it to the pages of whitepapers like these. If they did glean their list of 10 through such a methodology, it isn't clear.

Still, it's useful to have documents like this on hand as a starting point from which to build a good defense of open source in an organization -- should you need to make one.

Spy on your spouse via mobile

Melbourne: The frantic “Where r u?” text message has been shown the door, thanks to the new service –which has now been introduced in Australia – that allows mobile phone users to locate their spouses and friends.

The creator of the service, Michael Robson recently launched the service, called Mapmates, after 14 months in the planning.

The service helps friends, family members and workmates find one another on a map using the GPS navigation systems in their mobile phones.

Once two users have accepted one another as "mates", they can view each other's most recently updated location on the Mapmates website or through an application on their phone.

Similar mobile phone tracking services have been launched recently in the US and Europe, sparking concerns that parents, partners and employers could misuse the technology.

The most controversial of the services, Social Network Integrated Friend Finder, or SNIFF, offers an application for Facebook to allow users to track others through the social networking website.

Robson said he came up with the idea after hearing about the increasing speed of mobile internet access in Australia, and watching his twin 19-year-old sons visit websites and SMS several friends to formulate weekend plans.

"One of my sons came home at 5pm and started visiting Facebook and MySpace trying to find out where the latest party was. Then he started texting friends on his mobile. An hour later he had the information and was out of the house. About half an hour later, my other son got home and did the same thing. I thought there had to be an easier way to do this,” News.com.au quoted him, as saying.

After teaming up with some computer programmers, Robson was able to bring his idea to life.

Mapmates is a Java application suitable for any GPS-enabled mobile phone with Internet access. Users must download and install the program on their phone, and register their details with Mapmates to use the service.

Once set up, the Mapmates program sends your location co-ordinates to its web servers, and your location can be accessed by registered users you have allowed to see your details. Likewise, you can see their locations.

You can find your friends either by looking online, with their location pinpointed on Google Maps, or through a map image sent to your mobile phone.

Motorola launches co-branded handset with Ferrari

-- US-based mobile phone maker Motorola today said it has joined hands with Italian sports car manufacturer Ferrari to launch a co-branded 3G-enabled handset priced at Rs 21,840 in the Indian market.

The new handset --MOTORAZR 2 V9 Ferrari would be available exclusively at the Mobile Store for the first week of its launch. However, the phone would not be a limited edition device.

"The consumers mindset and taste is rapidly changing in India. The formula one racing culture is fast catching the fancy of the Indian youth and we are confident that we will find the right kind of audience for the product here," Motorola Senior Director, Sales and Distribution (India and South West Asia) Lloyd Mathias said.

The product is 3G enabled, so users could use the device to watch movies as well, once the operators start 3G services here, he said.

The phone comes with a unique racing interface, 2-mega pixel camera and has expandable memory up to 2 GB.

"Initially, the product will be available in ten cities such as Delhi and NCR , Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Hyderabad, Pune , Kochin and other cities. Depending on the success we will make the product available in other cities as well," Essar Telecom Retail (The Mobile Store) CEO and Director Rajiv Aggarwal said.

With mobile phones becoming more of a life style product and fashion accessory, luxury brands are extending their names to the devices. Big names in fashion like Armani , Prada have launched their co-branded products with Samsung and LG, respectively. Even luxury car makers are zooming in to the mobile fast lane with co-branded mobile phones and PDAs.

Networking devices maker ASUS Technology had recently also launched limited edition of ASUS ZX1 PDA phone in the Indian market with a price tag of Rs 47,777 , co-branded with Italian sports car maker Lamborghini. Motorola also had co-branded their handsets with Italian fashion house Dolce&Gabbana (D&G).

Call to open up UK public services

There is “a clear case” for the private and voluntary sectors to take a bigger role in providing public services, says DeAnne Julius, the economist.

She delivered a review on Thursday to the government on the public services industry. Her report shows that the independent sector is already providing a third of public services – a larger share than previously thought – with the business having doubled in real terms in a decade and now worth almost £80bn a year.

“A lot is happening in this market, but things are not happening fast enough,” she said. The review judges the UK to be a world leader in outsourced public services. But Ms Julius, a former chief economist at British Airways, adviser to the World Bank, and a former member of the Bank of England’s monetary policy committee, noted that in Australia the proportion had already reached 40 per cent.

Departments and councils needed to develop pipelines of tendering opportunities with timescales attached and monitored, she said, to signal “a long-term commitment to open up public service markets and maintain effective competition”.

The Treasury needed to tackle a series of value added tax and other issues that prevented the public, private and voluntary sectors from competing on equal terms.

Brendan Barber, Trades Union Congress general secretary, said the report missed the point. “Much of what the public services do needs to be motivated by the desire to serve the public, not to make profits for shareholders. Yet the public service ethos is simply dismissed in this report.”

John Hutton, the business secretary who commissioned the report, said the private and voluntary sectors were “helping maximise taxpayer investment and improve quality”.

Only fraction of people recycle old mobile phones

Only 3 per sent of mobile phone users recycle their old handsets and 74 per sent have never even considered doing so, a study published on Tuesday by the world's leading cell phone maker Nokia showed.
"It is clear from this survey that when mobile devices finally reach the end of their lives ...very few of them are recycled," Markus Terho, Nokia's director of environmental affairs, said in statement.
"Many people are simply unaware that these old and unused mobiles lying around in drawers can be recycled or how to do this," he added.
The survey, based on interviews with 6,500 people in 13 countries including China, Finland, India and the United States, indicated that half of cell phone users did not even know old mobile devices could be recycled.
"If each of the three billion people globally owning mobiles brought back just one unused device we could save 240,000 tones of raw materials and reduce greenhouse gases to the same effect as taking four million cars off the road," Terho said.

Mobile phone addiction plagues Chinese youth

BEIJING: China, which has the world's largest population of mobile phone users, is now facing a new type of mental disease called 'mobile phone dependence' syndrome, especially amongst the youth.

People affected by 'mobile phone dependence' syndrome get distracted easily and it would be difficult for them to focus their attention on work, noted psychologist Yang Ling was quoted as saying by Xinhua news agency.

"If their mobile phone keeps silent for some time, they would get worried and check to make sure they haven't set it wrong," Yang said.

People affected by mobile phone dependence often mistake the ringing of other people's phones as that of their own and tend to be bad-tempered, he said, adding these symptoms were typical of a kind of newly-emerged mental disease called "mobile phone dependence".

Statistics show that nearly 160 million Chinese people among the total 1.3 billion population own mobile phones, the highest proportion in the world.

As a salesperson for a Beijing commercial housing company 25-year-old Tang Hui has become accustomed to his professional image of being busy on his mobile phone all day.

"I have to change my battery once a day in order to keep my phone working, and the frequent ringing makes me feel that life is full," said Tang.

However, owing to his company's recent decline in business, Tang's phone calls also dropped considerably. When no longer able to keep up his business-like image, Tang finds himself restless, easily gets excited and somewhat unable to concentrate on his work.

Yang, also vice-president of the Education Science college in the Northwest Teachers university, explained that frequent mobile phone users, like Tang, gradually make their phone a part of their life without noticing it.

Once the number of phone calls drops or phones get lost, these symptoms of addiction appear.

According to Yang, "mobile phone dependence" symptoms were often found in the unsociable, eccentric and non-confident group, and most outstandingly, the young people among the group."

While some of them seek contact with the outside world through phone calls in order to make sure that they are not forgotten and abandoned by society, others want to create a professional image of high efficiency with the help of their hard-working mobile phone.

Yang suggested that people, especially the youth, should avoid putting too much emphasis on the use of mobile phones, and instead try to entertain themselves in other ways, like reading, hiking and sports.

SEO Solutions for Small Business or Small Websites

Now days, Most of the Business has website. Some businesses sell their products or services through internet and some business developed their website with their company profile and their services just to demonstrate to their users.

In most cases, you open any search engine such as Google or Yahoo and type in the term or phrase that you are looking for and then click through the results, right? Even now days, if you need to buy a digital camera, most of the people don?t go to market and find the cheapest and best digital camera shop to shop.

I have got a very small business, do I need website?

Yes, of course you need a website. At lease a very basic website. Because if you look back 5 years, you will find only 10% people use to find products or services online and now the percentage is more than 40% and within 3 to 4 years it will cover almost 80%. Therefore, if you don?t introduce your website now, it might be very late for you for finding the exact domain for your business.

What is the use of your web site if it cannot be found in any search engine?

Well, it is a very interesting question. If you have a very nice website but no one can find you and your services in Google or Yahoo etc. what is the use having the nice website then? Search Engine Optimization is the solution for that.

AP software exports post 41% growth

Despite recession in the US and rupee appreciation, the Software Technology Parks of India, Hyderabad (STPI-H) has managed to garner a 41% growth over the last year's exports against the projected national average growth rate of 32% thus taking the fourth position in the overall exports। Exports from the IT industry for the year 2007-08 stood at Rs 26,122 crore as opposed to last year's exports of Rs 18,582 crore.

The projected investments are Rs 2,100 crore by the newly-registered units which include Rs 656 crore from foreign Companies and Rs 1,446 crore from Indian Companies। As many as 176 new IT units have been added this year as STP units। The contribution from the state is growing steadily and is now 15% of the national exports, according to E Manoj Kumar, director.

Announcing the results to the media, he said that the target for next year is also a growth of over 40% and the state government has devised multi-pronged steps to add right talent, create better infrastructure, expand to multiple locations and create more business opportunities. Further, tier-II and tier-III cities such as Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Tirupati and Kakinada have started attracting many Companies and are upbeat on the export front। With the success of an incubation model in Kakinada, STPI is also in the process of adding similar initiatives in other locations with the support from the State government.

As part of its focus areas for growth, STPI-H is planning expansion of incubators in tier-II cities। A state-of-the-art incubation centre is coming up in Hyderabad which is expected to be operational by the end of this year, he said. The software units have generated employment to about 23,9000 in 2007-08 from 18,7450 in 2006-07.

Meanwhile, the second phase of NIXI (National Internet Exchange) hub in Hyderabad will soon be taking shape।

The first phase, as proposed by the Department of Information and Technology, has already been initiated at the four metros and the second phase is on। ISPs have been enrolled by which internet traffic can be routed within the country and not go to the US.

Unmasking Search Engine Myths and Mistakes

Myth: It's all about meta tags and submissions


This is the most pervasive and harmful myth of all, one held by many Web designers and developers. All you need to do, many believe, is code your pages with the right meta tags — the KEYWORDS and DESCRIPTION tags, and things like the REVISIT-AFTER and CLASSIFICATION meta tags — and then submit your site to the search engines.

This notion is completely wrong, for various reasons. Most meta tags aren't particularly important, or aren't used by the search engines at all. Without keywords in the page content, the search engines won't index what you need them to index. And submitting to search engines doesn't mean they will index your pages.

Mistake: You don't know your keywords

The vast majority of Web sites are created without the site owners or developers really knowing what keywords are important. (That's okay, perhaps, because most sites are built without any idea of using keywords in the content anyway.) At best, the keywords have been guessed at. At worst — the majority of the cases — nobody's thought of the keywords at all.

Don't guess at your keywords. Do a proper keyword analysis. Two things are bound to happen. You will find that some of your guesses were wrong — people aren't often using some of the phrases you thought would be common. And you'll also discover very important phrases you had no idea about.

Mistake: Building the site and then bringing in the SEO expert

Most companies approach search engine optimization as an afterthought. They build their Web site, and then think, "Right, time to get people to the site." You really shouldn't begin a site until you have considered all the different ways you are going to create traffic to the site. That's like starting to build a road without knowing where it needs to go; if you're not careful, you'll get halfway there and realize "there" is in another direction.

In particular, though, you shouldn't start building a Web site without an understanding of search engines. Most major Web sites these days are built by teams of developers who have little understanding of search engine issues. These sites are launched, and then someone decides to hire a search engine consultant. And the search engine consultant discovers all sorts of unnecessary problems. Good business for the consultant, expensive fixes for the site owner. In addition, Web developers usually don't enjoy working with search marketing experts. They think that all the search engine experts want to do is make the site ugly or remove the dynamism. This is the furthest from the truth, and a Web developer who refuses to work with an SEO expert may just be worried for his or her job.

Myth: Bad links to your site will hurt its position

Another common myth is that getting links to your site from "bad neighborhoods" (such as link farms, or Web sites unrelated to your site's theme) will hurt your search engine position. This isn't exactly so. It won't help, but it won't hurt, either, unless it is obvious that you are actively interacting with link farms or FFA (Free For All) link pages.

If bad links did hurt your site, you could assassinate your competition by linking to their sites from every lousy link farm and FFA you could find. So the search engines can't use such links to downgrade your site.

Mistake: Your pages are "empty"

This one is a huge problem for many companies; the pages have nothing much for the search engines to index. In some cases, the pages have little or no text that a search engine can read because the words on the page are embedded into images. In other cases, all the words may be real text, but there are very few words . . . and what words there are, are not the right keywords

To a search engine, content means text that it can read and indexed. And whenever you provide text to a search engine, it should be the text that does the most for you, text that will help you be found in the search results. And the more content, the better.

Next time you do a search at a major search engine, keep your eyes peeled for search results that don't say much: the description says Copyright 2004, for instance (or, worse, Copyright 1997), or All Rights Reserved, or perhaps something like Home · About BMC · Products · Testimonials · Links · E-mail BMC. These are pages with insufficient content.

Myth: Pay per click is where it's at

Pay per click can be a very important part of a Web site's marketing strategy. It's reliable, predictable, and relatively easy to work with. But it's not the only thing you should be doing. In fact, many companies cannot use PPC because the clicks are too expensive for their particular business model (and click prices are likely to keep rising as search marketing continues to be the hot Internet marketing topic).

The growth in pay per click has been partly caused by the lack of search engine optimization knowledge. Companies build a site without thinking about the search engines, and then don't hire professional expertise to help them get search engine traffic, so they fall back on PPC. Many companies are now spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on PPC; they could complement their PPC campaigns with natural search engine traffic for a small fraction of that cost.

The wonderful thing about PPC advertising and SEO is that the two work hand in hand. Want to know if a word is important enough to optimize for? Get a hundred clicks from your favorite search engine through PPC and look at the conversion rates and ROI (Return on Investment). Want to expand your PPC keyword list? No problem, look at the words that people are already using to find you as a baseline, and grow your list from these words. (For example, if they are using rodent racing to find you, why don't you buy the words mouse rodent racing, rat rodent racing, and so on?) Many companies are using PPC profitably; just don't assume it's the only way to go।

Will IBM Buy Zend / PHP ?

There is a report on the Washington Post that confirms that Zend (the lead commercial sponsor behind PHP) is laying off some of its workforce। The article speculates that the reason is due to Zend wanting to be cash flow positive in order to be a more attractive acquisition target.

Which begs the question - Who will acquire Zend?

Which begs the question - Who will acquire Zend?

In my view, there can only be one company and that company is IBM. Let me explain by first eliminating the other potential suitors.

Sun has already spent its cash on MySQL (the 'M' in the LAMP stack) shelling out $1 billion. Most MySQL databases that I've ever seen or touched were connected by PHP in some way so it might make sense for Sun, but for the fact that they have Java. Though Sun has said they're not out to replace the LAMP stack, considering the have Java and Solaris, I'm somewhat skeptical.

Oracle was at one time rumored to be in the hunt for PHP. Zend has a strategic relationship with Oracle producing a Zend Core (certified PHP) stack for Oracle databases. The way I see it now, Oracle might benefit from owning Zend as it would contribute to its overall end to end stack strategy, but it's certainly not a core advantage in that Oracle doesn't have its own deep PHP platform type of development.

Which leads us to Big Blue -- IBM.

QED Wiki, Project Zero (now a Websphere product) and some interesting mashup technologies at IBM all utilize Zend developed or led technologies. IBM is a strong contributor to the Zend Framework (which might be considered an alternative to .NET and JavaEE). From my own limited experience at events where both IBM and Zend executives were speaking, there is a very cordial working relationship between the two firms.

Zend would give IBM its own language play, something with which to counter Sun's Java, offer a complement for IBM's existing Websphere developments as well as providing IBM with a strategic services differentiator versus HP (and its EDS division). PHP is a competitive technology to Java and the simple logic that I have would seem to imply that Zend would be a strategic buy for IBM.

Considering that Zend is currently a privately held company it's difficult to guess what their cash flow might be and what they might be worth. The ridiculous price that Sun paid for MySQL has also no doubt inflated expectations which might make a deal difficult to achieve -- after all it's quite likely that there are at least as many PHP deployments as there are MySQL deployments.

I don't think that IBM will pay $1 billion for Zend, but I do think that eventually they will find the price that is right।
