Listings of sites for sale give great insight to SEO and web traffic

Image
 A couple of days of hugely interesting reading at flippa.com a site that brokers sites for sale revealed a plethora of insights and useful tools. It is a real eye opener to see just how much traffic a site can make and how. Mobile App development The figures aren't always trustworthy, the sellers are for the most part honest about what they claim publicly, but equally, will refrain from disclosing their full secrets; but with a good pair of streetwise glasses on you can sometimes make out what's really what or not. Some have hundreds of thousands of unique visitors a month with very little substantive content, others have over a million with just a selection of free games on them. Some are fantastic and beautiful sites that people have put years and years of work into that are all too often sold at a fraction of the price of those high traffic sites. These masters of the trade that understand that even the placement and frequency of words within a paragraph matter, which inwar...

The cheap and good end of drupal hosting

Image
  Drupal is an incredible tool The huge numbers of really clever modules and the brilliance of being able to change things to be exactly tbe way you want them is simply fantastic. The user management, the ease of templating, creating layouts and applying themes are all joyful! Mobile App development So much useful functionality, all ready-made and waiting to be taken advantage of. And with a bit of manipulation and adjustment to the cloud, it even scales really well too. And it's always refreshing when you come across a problem, that there's a great developer community and almost always someone there who has faced and solved the same challenges and who is willing to share their knowledge. Drupal is also a pig But because of its size, versatility and its own insistence of wanting to be continually kept up to date, it can be really challenging to host and maintain. And typically, someone else has built the site and you're left to keep it up to date and growing. Web designing ...

Agile from start to never finished

Image
 The office landscape after a few years of practising the Agile way is somewhat akin to a teenager's bedroom. You know, not that teenager, with the tidy room, the clothes neatly folded or hung up on colour matching hangers. Their work and exercise ethic exceeded only by their limitless politeness and cheer as they bring you your tea every morning. No. Not that teenager. The other one. Mobile App development So, back to the office, even the tracking software that's being used is in that limbo state of transition from say Redmine to Jira. Both are being used by different departments, their behaviour being more influenced by their ingrained habits than the mild sniping coming from someone else's project manager. The "priority" of recreating the fancy web forms and auto email ticket creation and reporting tools to now integrate with Jira remains lower than that of keeping other unrelated bugs at bay. So both systems are being used at full throttle by one set of people...

Jira - a single point of company failure

Image
  Jira and other "bug tracking" software are all susceptible to the scope creep disease. The more you use it the more you depend on it, and as the agile or kamban or whatever process spreads its influence; across to top management, assimilating borg-like, HR, marketing, sales, but not yet accounts; so the jira licences increase, and so does its importance in the organisation. Mobile App development Departments might use it in different ways with different plugins and interpretations of the standard fields. But it all remains with the devs or IT to maintain and upgrade - the most time poor of all departments facing more and more hidden and unaccounted for, high risk scope creep. Taking time away from other high priority fixes too. So what could go wrong Well Jira is close but, not yet at that previously described, reliance levels in most organisations, but I fear that will change quite rapidly now that the pace of its adoption, along with that of kamban and agile, has increase...
