    Thanks. I was curious how this was achieved and could not find any html code in various websites source code.

    Cheers,

  2. I am going to have to disagree. I do not have any basis besides just a knee jerk reaction and not believing there is any correlation to the link and the meta tags.

    The point is link relevancy. The link’s relevancy is drawn from the content. If the site is about world travel and it links to a an airline page that is relevant.

    Choosing relevant anchor text to the page landed is the most important factor. The difference between “SEO Traffic Tips and Tweaks or you could do News in Laymen terms” is huge. They are different topics all together and aren’t relevant to the page being pointed too.

    Using the title attribute in a link doesn’t mean much either. The potential for spamming is to high. It will be discarded if it hasn’t already just like the alt tag in images for seo reasons. I use both because they should be used for basic usability and offer very little SEO credit. A couple years ago the story may have been different.

    Can’t blame you for posting, I probably couldn’t turn that one down either. Good to see at least someone posting, I was starting to wonder if anyone even comes to my website. :neutral:

    Is your website build on a CMS like Wordpress, joomla, oscommerce, zen cart, or drupal?

    Contact us / email pages typically use what’s called phpmail or sendmail, which is server side email messaging. Even though your MX records are set to receive mail through a different mail host such as Google, your website will still handle the emails through sendmail and phpmail.

    I have noticed that Google doesn’t like phpmail, most of my email problems with them have been solved by switching to sendmail.

    Another way of fixing website email is to use SMTP host relay-hosting.secureserver.net

    If you don’t wish to use phpmail or sendmail, most packages such as wordpress, joomla, etc let’s you setup your SMTP to send out emails, without using the server side email processing.

    here are 2 website discussion about phpmail or Godaddy Sendmail not working.

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38669/does-the-php-mail-function-work-if-i-dont-own-the-mx-record

    or

    http://forums.devarticles.com/web-hosting-45/php-mail-function-not-working-with-godaddy-com-90663.html

    You may find a fix on those two website. Or a fix from one of the links in the comment areas.

    @Donace, I have used Joomla CMS with VirtueMart. Magento, Oscommerce, Cube Cart, and Zen Cart.

    Joomla Virtuemart is a bit bulky for an intensive E-commerce website, but it’s great for being an addition on top of a community website already utilizing joomla. I like to use it for selling ebooks, music, movies, etc. If you want to use it as just an e-commerce website you can, but it’s a bit over the top on sql queries and doesn’t offer very many mods for increasing it’s capabilities.

    Magento – I have used magento 4 times now and I still don’t like it. Simple task that should only take a few seconds to do, take a few minutes in magento. The overall usability was not well thought out, which makes it a hassle to use.

    OsCommerce – Ultimate control over an E-commerce website. It is a full cms that can do anything you want it to do. The down fall is, mods aren’t easy to add in because there is no built in mod installing area. Same goes for themes, no automatic theme installing engine, unless you code in STS. The community forum is awesome, they are very helpful and prompt replys if you need help.

    If you want to make an e-commerce website as fast as possible, then this is not the way to go. But if you time to spare and want an in depth website where you have loads of control and people to help you do it, then oscommerce is recommended.

    Zen Cart – It is also a full CMS and includes amazing amount of mods and built in addons and features. It includes an automatic template install and mod feature. Pretty much everything you want to do or change on your website can be accomplished through the admin with minimal programming knowledge required.

    The two true downfalls of Zencart, it contains more bloat then oscommerce because it comes with more mods. But that just means you need a good cache plugin, minify your css and js files, and make sure your webhost fully supports zencart. I have heard horror stories of people on a web host with minimal or no zen cart support.

    The other down fall is the Community forum, I hate that place. The people are slow to respond and if they do respond, they tell you to buy the book, search the forum because they are positive they saw a post already asking that, or read the FAQ before they will even help you. There are exceptions to this, but they are rare and far between.

    I am not the typical person to ask a lot of stupid questions, I will do a lot of searching around before I resort to asking for help. But on zen cart forum, you post as a new comer on there, expect minimal to no support.

    Cube Cart – Easy e-commerce website, takes a few minutes to setup, not a lot of addons or mods. They offer a premium package, but I have never tried it. Cube cart is a basic cart, but it works out of the box with almost no bloat.

    I may make this a post, I didn’t expect the reply to get this long. :P

    @Donace, I don’t mind helping out, so go ahead and bug me with Questions.

    And yes, magento looks good on paper, but bad in execution. My stonegifts.com website is built in Zen Cart, but I have streamlined the website down to make it as fast as possible.

    @Taylor Norrish, Send to phone might work for smaller post or individual images. But for longer post it would not be good a idea. Reading a long post or scrolling through a lot of images can be a bit tedious and painful on the eyes.

    I don’t know how hard it would be to add to your program, but look into adding an Email This button.

    The share and Save social marking software I use on my website, among with the others I have used, offer an Email a friend button. But when you use that function, it only sends an email link to the website.

    I would like to offer the ability to my readers to email entire articles with a link back to the original articles, preferably at the top, bottom, or both.
