Ran traffic blazer and was told I have no internal hyperlinks? unspiderable

I just ran Traffic Blazer on my site and was told it has no internal or external hyperlinks (which it does) and that there is a robot.txt file that disallows spidering. How do I fix this so I am searchable?

This is not entirely true.
Search engine optimization refers to changing your website so that it has the best possible chance to rank high in search engines for your targeted keywords. Nobody knows the internals of a search engine so it is impossible to guarantee top rankings. HOWEVER, you can still make your website search engine friendly and this is VERY important especially for iWeb sites that are not made to be search engine friendly.
In fact, Google provides a PDF Beginners SEO Guide to help people learn how they can better optimize their sites for search engines. You can get it at this link and our tools let you do almost everything they recommend;
http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2008/11/googles-seo-starter-guide.htm l
There are sites that are search engine friendly and those that are not. You want to make sure your site is search engine friendly and the links that I provided will help you do this. We provide SEO tools specifically made for iWeb that are completely free to use because we want iWeb users to have a chance of ranking high. Basically we have tried to take the advice provided by Google and apply it easily to iWeb sites.
Search engines are open about how they rank pages to an extent. HOWEVER their algorithms are made in such a way that it is almost impossible to manipulate them easily. For example, Google will recommend you have lots of high quality links. The problem is that getting high quality links is not easy.
That's why you may think SEO is "voodoo". Its certainly NOT "voodoo" as all search engines, even Google, recommend you do it and even provide the resources for you to do so.
If you have any questions feel free to visit the above website I posted and send me an email. I will be happy to help.

    I had the same problem. Go back into Verizon Tunes. At the bottom of the screen you should see 3 dots. Touch them and that will bring up additional choices, one being Downloads. In the Downloads choice is 2 bars. One bar is Pending Downloads (aka Music Inbox) the other bar shows your download history.

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

    If there are fonts, transitions, builds, video or audio in the PowerPoint file that are not compatible with Keynote, it will either prevent the presentation opening or Keynote will substitute the settings causing playback changes.
    I use Open Office to play and open any PowerPoint files sent to me, they play exactly as in PowerPoint.

  • I have a mid 2009 13'' MBP. I got the battery replaced in Apple store, It then stopped displaying the battery status LED. After some months of use my MBP died. I got it checked in Apple verfied Service centre and was told that logic board was to blame

    I have a mid 2009 13'' MBP. I got the battery replaced in Apple store, It then stopped displaying the battery status LED.
    After some months of use my MBP died outside USA. I got it checked in Apple verfied Service centre and was told that logic board was faulty.
    After I came back to US I took my MBP to Apple store and was told that there is liquid damage in the system. My question is that if there was liquid damage why did my MBP stop displaying the battery status right after  the battery was changed secondly why didnt the apple verified Service centre tell me that there was liquid damage afterall I paid them the money for diagnosing the problem.
    Is there a process i can followup on this problem

    These are question you would need to ask that service center.

  • I have an iPhone 4S with broken speaker right now, I took it to the Genius Bar and was told to pay $199 if wanting it replaced. Is there anyway I could, get an iPhone 5 instead of 4S, even for a more expensive cost?

    So here's the thing: a few days ago I found the volume of the speaker on my phone going very low when I pick up the phone, I could barely hear anything. We took it to the store and was told that we'd pay $199 if wanting it replaced, or getting an iPhone 5 for $130 for a maxplan. Ok, so it's next to impossible for me to give up my plan cause you can't find a plan nearly as good as mines at this price. Then is there any other way to get apple to give me an iPhone 5 instead of 4S even for a expensive price??

    No.
    All warranty or out of warranty replacements are of the same model only.

  • HT4367 Rented a movie but it won't download. Rented it again and was told to go to settings and download. Should I be renting from iCloud and not my iMac? Never happened before and been renting all week since Thanksgiving!

    Apple TV 2 with rebooting the iPhone 7.04 and iMac running Mavericks and rebooting TV etc today. Selected to rent a movie but it started to download and we lost it. Tried to rent again and was told it wasn't downloaded. Went to settings and only get spinning circle when I try to download the rental. Apple TV up to date and been renting all week since Thankgiving. Only 4.99 but making me nuts. Help anyone??

    Dear Colbabomb; thankyou for your links.
    So far, I looked at your first solution, Revo Uninstaller and it gives you a 30 free trial. Ergo, it will eventually cost money so I'm leery of using those kinds of programs in general, meaning most "free trials" have unwanted strings attached and often are big probs to get rid of later. Perhaps you can assure me that it is easy and very user friendly, before I proceed. And I already ran malwarebytes and it found nothing tho the program still can't be uninstalled. I downloaded Adw Cleaner and during the install, my Norton's security popped up and warned that there were (low risk) threats with two of their "other offers" and i hadn't even actually clicked to agree either of them. Nonetheless, Norton warned me against the "lyrics finder" and "deal ply." In fact, there was a box already with an x in it, saying that you are accepting deal ply if you x on "next." Well, except I unchecked that box before clicking on next, yet when it went to fully install, it still showed that it was adding itself; so, just before the install was 100% completed, I had to abort the whole thing. I really do hope your other suggestions are programs that you personally know that they don't try and trick you. But right now, I would not suggest Adw Cleaner to anyone. I even read the fine print about what they will try and install and how to decline and it still tried sticking stuff on that i believed I had declined. Anyways, i have to leave now, shall pick up later this evening, if my pc is still functioning.

  • HT6030 I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update. Hmmmm.

    I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update.   Expect it's due to being at 10.9.1.  Mail is still teetering between dysfunctional and non-functional.  Advice?

    I'm not sure what "Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6" is. Mac OS X 10.5.6 is Leopard, a system that is quite old at this point. There have not been any Mail updates for Leopard in quite some time. If you are trying to install some old Mail update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 in Mavericks, that won't work.
    If you are trying to install the Mavericks Mail update manually, that's not necessary if you have updated through the App Store. If the App Store shows no updates, you don't need this. (The error message doesn't make sense, and may indicate some other problem with your system, assuming that you were downloading this update from Apple's site.)
    I'd advise you to start a new topic in the Mavericks forum and describe the problems you are having with Mail. Be sure to include specifics, but try to avoid speculating on causes, as responses that may be related to an inaccurate assumption on your part can cloud the issue.

  • Tried to use Iphoto and was told I needed upgrade. Try to install upgrade . Upgrade should take an hour if photo library is large. It's now close to three hours and still upgrading.  Can't use Iphoto and don't want to stop if still upgrading...3hours??

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • I started to update my macbook pro and was told i needed to restart, which i did. that  was about 6 hours ago and all i see is an apple and a rotating circle. what do i do?

    ! started to update my system and was told to restart. I did. it has now been about 6 hours and all i see is an apple and a rotating circle. what is happening?

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    A dead logic-board battery in a Mac Pro can cause a gray screen at boot. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions.
    Step 9
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

  • I just changed phones and plans and was told the I would NOT see this data usage note again.   Please explain so a 75 year old man can understand.  Thanks  tom C

    I just changed phones and data plans and was told that I would NOT a data usage alert again.  I just got one.  What's up with that?

    Do you have Wifi at home? Do you do a lot of social media, internet surfing, video etc?  Go to settings/data usage/ and scroll up to see what is consuming your data.   You can restrict any of these apps from data usage by selecting one, then scrolling up and checking "restrict background data" for each app you wish to limit. Ones restricted will still function on wifi if available. Data can be restored to any app by unchecking a checked box.  That's a start.
    I keep my S5's data turned off unless I have a particula need when not near wifi. This month I'm near mid way through my billing period and have consumed around 29MB.  Not as much fun for sure but much easier on the wallet.  Caution, public wifi is likely not a secure connection.
    You also can set alert and limit levels for data use by your phone on the Data Usage screen of your phone.

  • I tried to purchase a song and was told I was from Canada and could not purchase it? Predjudice?

    I just tried purchasing a Ben Cantelon song from iTunes and was told I could not because my user account was in Canada. And here I thought iTunes was internatiional in its scope. How wrong I was. This is just predjudice.

    "iTunes browser plug in"... Whats' that?
    Has it occurred to you that there may have been an error in the store, rather than prejudice against you, or Canada? Especially since you have now managed to buy the song, even though you're still in Canada.
    Of course, one thing you should definitely take into account is that the decision to sell a song or album in any country is not made by Apple or iTunes. That is down to the artist, the record company or the copyright owner.
    Believe it or not, Apple is not responsible for every single thing in the entire known universe!
